When Mo Zhihuai entered, he saw Shi Mobai there as well. “Hey, kid Shi is here.”
Shi Mobai: "Senior Mo, you're back."
Mo Zhihuai: "Yeah, I went outside for a walk and ran into Chu Qiao and Liu Xiangyu on the way, so I chatted with them for a while."
Shi Mobai asked curiously, "Chu Qiao and Liu Xiangyu, who are they? Are they also in the army?"
Yu Jianshe explained, "They're also from the military. We teamed up together when we were fighting the Zerg. They're two interesting people. I'll introduce you to them sometime."
Shi Mobai was naturally very sociable and loved making friends, so he readily agreed, "Okay!"
At this moment, Mo Zhihuai said, "I just ran into the two of them and we chatted for a while about the gossip in the military. Chu Qiao told me something that is actually not a big secret in the military. It's just a little rumor that people talk about in private."
Shi Mobai asked with interest, "Oh, what kind of gossip could I possibly know?"
Mo Zhihuai sat on the sofa, leaned back lazily, and said, "It should be nothing, right? Everyone should know something about it. Our empire has ten marshals, right? Some time ago, one of them, a marshal surnamed Lin, was said to have betrayed the empire and was actually colluding with the Zerg in private."
Everyone was surprised. Since someone could rise to the rank of marshal, they should be a high-ranking leader in the military, yet they would betray the empire.
"What collusion with the Zerg? What was he thinking? The Zerg are not the same race as us, so why would he collude with them?"
Shi Mobai's mouth dropped open in surprise. Holy crap, there's something this explosive!
Mo Zhihuai continued, "This Marshal Lin not only colluded with the Zerg, but I also heard that he secretly escaped some time ago and is currently being secretly captured."
This surprised the three even more. Yu Jianshe couldn't help but ask, "If he could escape from such a heavily guarded place, Marshal Lin must be very capable!"
Shi Mobai also said in surprise, "That's for sure. Marshal, I can't even imagine that such a high-ranking leader would do such a despicable thing. I don't know what he was thinking, that he would betray the empire!"
Mo Zhihuai said mysteriously, "You don't know this, do you? There's an even more surprising piece of news that you'd never guess, no matter how hard you try."
This piqued everyone's interest. Cheng Ying rolled her eyes at Mo Zhihuai, thinking that the old man was starting to keep everyone in suspense again.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Yu Jianshe and Shi Mobai were even more eager to know what the news was.
The first to be impatient was Shi Mobai, who anxiously asked, "Senior Mo, please tell me quickly, what news is it?"
After whetting everyone's appetite, Mo Zhihuai and the others said, "I heard that the reason why Marshal Lin colluded with the Zerg and betrayed the Empire is because he is not human!"
"What?" Everyone was shocked, even Cheng Ying was surprised.
Shi Mobai: "He's not human, could he be a Zerg?"
Mo Zhihuai shook his head. "I don't know. Anyway, many people saw it at the time. It was because he wasn't human."
Yu Jianshe said seriously, "The reason they aren't searching for Marshal Lin so extensively is probably to avoid causing panic. We must be extra careful when we go out. We don't know where Marshal Lin might be hiding."
Cheng Ying said, "Yes, after all, people from all sides have come to attend the banquet. It's a time when there are many people. If Marshal Lin takes advantage of the chaos to launch a sneak attack on someone, that would be bad."
Yu Jianshe also said with concern, "With the banquet just around the corner and a large number of people from all sides, we need to be even more careful when we go out."
Mo Zhihuai reminded them, "And don't forget, the three of us are the culprits who killed their Zerg Queen. If they want to avenge their Queen, they are most likely to come after us."
Cheng Ying: "Okay, we'll be careful. Alright, let's not talk about it anymore. Mo Bai hasn't been here for a long time. I'll cook something delicious for you all in a bit."
Upon hearing that Cheng Ying was going to cook herself, Shi Mobai was overjoyed. "Then I'll be waiting for this feast, Sister Cheng! You have no idea how long I've been craving Sister Cheng's cooking skills."
While everyone was having a happy gathering, in the military headquarters' kitchen, the head chef was arranging some catering matters for the banquet.
He had previously addressed the thirty-odd people in front of him, saying, "Listen up, everyone. His Highness attaches great importance to this banquet. We must not let His Highness down and must ensure that the catering for this banquet is perfect."
"Xiao Wang, take a few people to the designated location to transport supplies. Xiao Li, you take the rest of the people, along with the service robots, to handle these ingredients. Do you all understand?"
"I understand!"
"Okay, that's all for now. Xiao Wang, once we get the supplies back, we'll deal with the rest together. Now, everyone get to your positions and get to work."
