Chapter 1223: Traveler Gray
Traveler Gray is the deputy commander of the Blue Star Defense Forces, currently serving as the chief inspector responsible for the supervision and guidance of the entire defense force. He has never held the position of "chief inspector" before. In the past, his role was the head of logistics, but now he is missing, and the military discipline is in serious disarray! To address the discipline issues, Commander Aldan appointed Traveler Gray as the "chief inspector" and entrusted him with the task of restoring the military discipline.
Aldan has little familiarity with Traveler Gray, despite having worked together for thousands of years. Because of the vast gap in their ranks, they rarely had any interaction. Aldan trusted Traveler Gray mainly because he held the position of head of logistics.
The head of logistics is one of the most crucial positions in the defense forces, shouldering the responsibility of the entire military logistics. This position is also one of the most lucrative, as it is the best opportunity to gain favor. If Aldan wants to reclaim the credit, it would be a piece of cake.
Traveler Gray was appointed as the head of logistics, which means he must have a high character and would not forget his duties.
Thus, Commander Aldan entrusted Traveler Gray as the "chief inspector," mainly responsible for addressing military discipline.
...
Upon his appointment, Traveler Gray immediately launched a military discipline overhaul in the defense forces.
In these two months, he handled over a thousand military disciplinary cases! Hundreds of officers have been imprisoned, not betray Commander Aldan or the residents of the defense hub's expectations.
However, for Traveler Gray, this was the busiest two months of his life. He never imagined it would be so hectic! During these two months, he dashed around handling various issues, not daring to rest for a moment.
Although he has done his best to address the disciplinary cases, the pile of unresolved cases is growing, and the trend is increasing! He has even become pessimistic.
When will these days of chaos end? Unless the higher-ups intervene or send reinforcements, he cannot see the end of this day.
Right now, a more serious incident has occurred!
For the defense hub, today is a very significant day. Just today, the Holy Company initiated a cross-galactic teleportation over a vast distance.
Traveler Gray had long been aware that today's probability was very high, with the large influx of personnel being the most chaotic moment.
But he didn’t expect that the teleportation, which started only a few hours ago, would bring about a major event in Sector 170—five eighth-rank officers dying simultaneously!
With so many eighth-rank officers dying at once, Traveler Gray naturally had to handle it personally.
But he is not yet aware of the situation.
So in the "South 05" base's conference room, he and several visiting inspectors gathered to understand the cause and process of the incident.
...
The front of the conference room is a massive 3D projection.
The 3D projection displays the entire process of the attack on the Holy City "Singer Tower" by the gang of four raiders.
The 3D projection shows the entire assault, from Su Yu's initial resistance to the failed [Teleportation] spell to the final [Flash] escape, all captured in the footage without any omissions.
But after watching the recording, Traveler Gray had a faint doubt.
He asked, "Is this man an escapee? Why are we hunting him?"
The identities of the four raiders are clearly shown in the 3D projection, and Traveler Gray already knew they were mid-ranking officers from the defense force.
But why are these mid-ranking officers cooperating to deal with one person, in capturing an escapee?
"Commander, this isn’t about capturing an escapee," a respectful inspector replied, "Theatives."
"Um." Traveler Gray frowned and nodded, "Then what’s the reason?"
The inspector explained, "Based on the review, we believe these officers privatelyA silver-haired woman's portrait suddenly appeared in the 3D projection, it was Guren Wei.
The inspector recited his analysis, and his assessment was spot on, matching the reality almost entirely.
Traveler Gray listened to the inspector's analysis, his face gradually darkening.
Another serious disciplinary case!
And this time, it was even worse, as these traitors put their hearts into the invaders’ hands!
"What’s the conclusion?" the inspector finished, and Traveler Gray, with a darkened face, asked.
The inspector hesitated for a moment, then quickly replied, "The conclusion is that these five officers collaborated to rob the native inhabitant. But they were all killed by the native inhabitant."
"Hmm!" Traveler Gray grunted heavily.
So, if it comes to a fight, they must be prepared to be killed. These scumbs are not to be underestimated, as they are not just any ordinary invaders, but among the most elite of the eighth-rank, perhaps even stellar-level cultivators.
Traveler Gray casually asked, "What’s the strength of this native cultivator? Is he not far from reaching the stellar level?"
"No," the inspector sternly replied, "He is a disguised eighth-rank cultivator, but in reality, he must be a stellar-level cultivator!"
