Unfortunately. Aurora shook her head and sighed. “He’s gone, after all.

Mackenzie felt a pang of sorrow, her heart heavy with grief. Yet another man had died protecting her.

Aurora, as though understanding her feelings, stood upwithour concern for formalities. She gently held

Mackenzie's hand, her smile tender and reassuring. “Don’t be too heartbroken over Falcon, Madam Commander.

He died with a smile on his face. That means he felt his death was worthwhile.”

The sudden shift from “Your Holiness” to “Madam Commander took Mackenzie by surprise, but it brought a sense

of warmth and closeness.

Looking at Aurora, a woman slightly older than herself, Mackenzie didn’t see her as a subordinate but as an older

sister with rich life experiences. Listening to her speak felt like cleansing her spirit.

Aurora continued, her voice soft yet firm. “Do you know? It was you, the Commander, and Rhett who changed

that man. You transformed him from a vile scoundrel into a true man who stood tall with integrity,

Around them, more people in the field hospital began gathering, drawn to Aurora’s storytelling.

She seemed happy to share, “I once told the Commander about Falcon. I've known him longer than anyo

you.

“Back in Kasango, he was notorious for committing all sorts of crimes, a lawless villain through and through. He

was the worst of the worst. But after coming to Dark Night Islands, Rhett subdued him, and he started to reform.

“Then, during the uprising led by the Commander, that spark of courage buried deep within him was ignited.

Fighting alongside everyone in that war-experiencing life and death on the battlefield-it completely changed his

way of thinking.

Mackenzie found herself strangely captivated. Rarely had she shown interest in any man other than Emmanuel,

yet now, she sat quietly, listening.

She wasn’t the only one. The entire field hospital had grown silent, the soldiers‘ faces solemn, their eyes filled

with thought.

Aurora smiled faintly as she continued. “When he joined the Wolf Warrior Unit with me, he even cto

sincere. He was beginning to act like a real man.”

Her smile deepened, her expression radiant as she recounted their conversations. “Later, we chatted a bit more.

He toldhe wanted to make a nfor himself in the Wolf Warrior Unit. He wanted to treat the entire world

The fire in his blood had been reignited, and he finally embraced the strength of a true man.”

Her words sank deep into the hearts of the listeners, leaving the room steeped in silence.

Mackenzie turned her gaze toward Falcon’s lifeless body, his smile frozen in death. For a moment, it

“It’s all right,” Mackenzie said, hurrying over to her. She offered a warm smile. “You coming back alive is

She had been deeply worried about Anna’s safety. The Wolf Warrior Unit couldn't afford to lose another

person.

Anna nodded, then approached Falcon’s body. She crouched down beside him, taking in the grim sight of his

death, yet her gaze softened as it lingered on the serene smile still etched on his face.

She couldn't help but laugh quietly. | never thought someone like him could beca hero. We demons really

don’t breed cowards, do we?”

“When someone finds their belief,” Mackenzie said, her voice suddenly alive with conviction, “their soul begins

to shine. And it’s not just the demons-Wolf Warrior Unit doesn’t have cowards either!”

Her words lit a fire in the room, and she clenched her fists tightly. “We must eradicate the Five Poison Sect We

can’t allow them to continue plaguing the world!”

“Absolutely!”

The soldiers in the field hospital raised their hands high, shouting in unison. Their morale, far from diminished by

the losses they had suffered, burned brighter than ever.

At that moment, Ironskull and Ostrich crushing in, panting heavily as they exclaimed, “Your Holiness, bad

news! We couldn't find Miss Lexi or Ms. Lenoir!”

“What?”

Mackenzie's heart sank once again.

Lexi and Claudette were her closest friends. If anything happened to either of them, she would be utterly

devastated.

Ostrich quickly continued his report, “We found that the checkpoint guards at the Serpent Lair had been. shot

dead. It seems they've gone inside!”

Hearing this, Mackenzie paused to think for a moment before decisively giving her orders. “Anna, gather the

troops immediately! Lead an elite team to storm the Serpent Lair. Make sure everyone inside comes out alive

and unharmed!”

“Yes, Your Holiness!”

Anna accepted the command without hesitation and left to carry it out.

Meanwhile, Emmanuel had arranged for Eve to transport a thousand elite troops from the specialized. battalion

for reinforcement. With the arrival of advanced weaponry, they now had everything they needed to completely

flatten the Serpent Lair.

The only challenge that remained was how to minimize the casualties of innocent people caught in the

crossfire.

Elsewhere. Envoy Aora and the Toad King fled in disarray, finally stopping to catch their breath at the foot of a

snowy mountain when they were certain no one was pursuing them.

“Dmn it! Dmm you, Mackenzie! | swear I'll devour you alive!”

The Toad King was utterly enraged,

To capture Mackenzie alive, he had led five hundred of the Toad Hollow’s elite forces into battle.

Now, only thirty-four, including himself, had survived.

It was a devastating loss.

“My friend, anger won't solve our problem!”
