The two remaining men stood where they were. "Should we report this to Minister Mo?"
"Definitely. She specifically asked us to keep an eye on Miss Jiang before she left. Something this vicious happened, so we absolutely have to inform her. Besides, this involves the nobles. If we want a thorough investigation, we'll certainly need Minister Mo's help."
At the mention of the nobles, the other middle-aged soldier sighed. "If I hadn't been injured back then, I never would have wanted to retire from the corps."
"Serving as a local garrison… there's just too much darkness, too many regrets."
The other man patted his shoulder. "Don't dwell on it. We still have a long life ahead of us. We can hope for a better future."
"Yeah."
As they spoke, he sent a private message about the day's events to Mo Chengyu's terminal.
Meanwhile, the research institute had developed a prototype. Mo Chengyu, more invested than anyone, went straight into the simulation environment to begin testing data.
