Chapter 1493: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes, Dominic Lowe
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the entrance of the hall, a white-robed youth held a handsome little boy’s hand in his left hand and entered the hall.
It was the king of the northern territory, Braydon Neal, and the young master of the Northern Army, Trevon Neal.
The father and son stepped into the hall.
Dominic Lowe rushed forward and bowed. “Greetings to the Northern King and the Young Master of the Northern Army!”
“Greetings, Lord Northern King!” The ministers all bowed, everyone solemn.
“Gentlemen, it’s been a long time!” Braydon smiled gently.
...“Karson Jacobo of the Northern Army pays his respects to the commander!” Karson walked out and greeted.
Braydon nodded. “Heather is busy today and can’t come. I came to take a look on her behalf. If you have anything to say, feel free to tell me.”
“The Northern Army wants to sue Dominic Lowe!” A calm voice came from outside the door.
The second master of the Northern Army, Luther Carden, entered and shouted loudly.
“The Groot Army hereby files a complaint against Dominic Lowe!” Christopher Jenkins followed closely behind.
“The Phoenix Army hereby files a complaint against Dominic Lowe!” Cora Yanagi, dressed in a flawless white dress, walked into the hall with an elegant and noble aura.
Cartley Yanagi roared like a tiger. “The Southern Hansworth Army hereby files a complaint against Dominic Lowe!”
“The Western Army hereby files a complaint against Dominic Lowe!” Joshua Mandor entered the hall and shouted.
The ruthless people of the Northern Army gathered in the hall.
If one looked closely, it was clear that the military power of the world was in the hands of the Northern Army.
“Why are you filing a complaint against me?” Dominic’s face turned green.
“For embezzling the compensation and materials of the Northern Army!” Luther said indifferently.
“I’m not greedy!” Dominic glared at him.
“You are greedy!” Cora smiled playfully.
“I’m not greedy!” Dominic shouted.
“Tobey, kill this old man with one punch,” someone encouraged.
Tobey Lapras, extremely anxious, punched out, and his pressure enveloped the hall.
Most people felt suffocated.
Bang!
Braydon flashed in front of him.
The fist reached his chest but stopped just short.
“Tobey Lapras tried to kill the commander. He deserves to be killed!” someone shouted.
Tobey’s face turned green.
He immediately stepped back and craned his neck to find out who had tricked him.
He realized the source of the voice was Dominic.
Tobey was instantly enraged. “Old Man Lowe, you think you can trick me?”
“I didn’t say that!” Dominic stared at him.
“It’s you!” Tobey shouted.
“It wasn’t me!” Dominic’s face darkened further.
He knew that as long as he met someone from the Northern Army, nothing good would come of it.
Braydon shook his head helplessly.
He then scooped up a youth from behind Dominic.
It was the delicate Colton Jansky, who was almost fifteen years old!
A mischievous expression appeared on his delicate face.
A rebellious youth was extremely mischievous.
“Brother!” Colton blinked.
“Big Brother Colton!” Trevon immediately shouted.
“He is your uncle!” Braydon frowned and reminded him.
“It’s alright, let him call me whatever he wants. Trevon, where’s Judith?” Colton tilted his head and was put down by Braydon.
“I’m at home!” Trevon answered honestly.
“Alright, stop fooling around. Nico is back.” Braydon looked outside the palace and sensed Nico Yates’ aura.
As expected, Nico entered the hall in a flash.
When he saw Braydon, he cupped his fists and greeted him.
“You’ve worked hard!” Braydon took a book from him.
This was the last one.
The rest of the files were burned.
“The archives building caught fire,” Nico said. “The first thing that was burned was the documents related to this incident.”
Braydon nodded lightly.
He turned around and flipped through the file.
“Tristan, tell everyone here about the information you have.”
“Yes, sir!” Tristan Yandell looked at the crowd and said, “Two years ago, the Northern Army transferred the first batch of compensation materials from the 14th ruin. There were 75 billion small spirit stones, 500 pounds of divine-level plant demon essence, and 50,000 spirit herbs.
“They were stored in the western suburbs of the capital and distributed to all 23 provinces the next day.
“On the day of distribution, 10% of the total amount of resources was lost. Greer Jester, who was in charge of this matter, concealed it and did not report it!
“After that, we distributed these supplies to the 23 provinces. We used the current price of spirit stones to exchange them for compensation and distributed them to the families of the heroes.
“The current price of spirit stones is 1,000 dollars per small spirit stone!”
…
Tristan explained in detail.
As the 3,000 ruins opened up the supply of resources, the price of small spirit stones and spirit herbs had been reduced.
Tristan continued, “According to the value of this batch of materials, it’s enough to give each family a million dollar pension. If there are retired men who are seriously injured or disabled, they can also receive a pound of divine-level plant demon essence for free. It’s enough to heal their injuries!
“If the family members of the heroes have a seriously ill member, they can apply for spirit herb treatment. It will definitely cure all illnesses!
“However, when the first batch of materials was distributed to the families, it was reduced by eighty percent!”
As Tristan said this, his fury was evident.
This was the detailed data that the North Governor Office had investigated over the years.
According to the information from the Northern Army, they had secretly investigated all the families of the heroes and the pension received by each family.
Without solid evidence, the people of the Northern Army would not have brought this matter to light.
But once they found evidence, they would pursue it by the law.
Even if they couldn’t find direct evidence, the truth was undeniable.
With Luther’s ruthless nature, he wouldn’t let this matter go.
He would definitely mobilize the hidden agents of the Northern Army.
If the hidden agents took action, those involved would likely face dire consequences.
“How is this possible?!” Dominic exclaimed in shock.
“You’ve been sitting high in the capital’s palace for too long!” Tristan shot back.
In order to investigate this matter thoroughly, hundreds of people had already disappeared.
The results would probably be catastrophic.
“We’ve been guarding the ruins all these years,” Luther said calmly. “Not to mention I’ve transferred three batches of compensation materials to the country!”
“Yes, the second batch of materials consisted of 10,000 spirit crystals, 80 billion small spirit stones, 10 spirit herbs, and 2000 pounds of divine-level plant demon essence. According to the evidence I have, 50% of them were reduced in the warehouse in the northern suburbs of the capital that night. The person in charge is Kanan Zullo!” Tristan said indifferently.
Greer and Kanan’s faces turned pale.
They lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
“How dare you two!” Zavier Leach said angrily. “Men, bring them away and investigate this matter thoroughly!”
Third Master, Yuri Qualls, swooped in, pulling out the snow-white long sword at his waist and intimidating the royal guards who entered through the door.
“I’ll take over this matter,” he said lightly. “There’s no need to trouble you to interrogate them.”
The court was treacherous, and the power of the capital was deeply intertwined.
If Greer and Kanan were brought out, they would probably be killed and silenced.
“Continue!” Braydon said softly.
“The third batch of supplies was transferred from the 3rd ruin to the capital two months ago. I remember that it was Yuri who personally escorted them!” Tristan looked at the Yuri.
