Inside the Royal City, Tu En listened to his subordinates' reports, a bad feeling rising within him. "The two commanders who went to the west to investigate the fluctuations of powerful entities haven't returned yet. Something must have happened! Given their strength, if they can get into trouble, it means the enemies coming this way are extremely powerful!"
The intelligence officer said, "It's not just the west that's in trouble; one of our supply transit stations in the east has also run into problems. The garrison there lost contact with headquarters. Before losing contact, the garrison stated they were going to deal with an Upper Ultimate Zetton, and there's been no word since. They've likely been defeated. Should we send people to take a look? That station accounts for a quarter of our supply sources. We cannot afford any problems there!"
Tu En pondered for a moment. "Put the matter in the west aside for now. Send four Upper Ultimate powerhouses to the eastern transit station to see what on earth is going on. A single Upper Monster isn't worth my making the trip in person. Tell the ones who go to be careful. Supplies can be replaced, but the moment anything unexpected happens, they are to return immediately! We cannot afford to lose any more personnel."
