Zeba spoke without thinking, “Okay, Lord!”
At that moment, the Lord spoke again, “Alright, that’s all I have to say. I hope that you will all give your all and bring back good news as soon as possible. Whether it’s capturing Maria or uncovering the enemy behind the scenes, I will reward you generously!”
Almost simultaneously, the four marshals bowed and respectfully addressed the camera, “Thank you, Lord!”
***
The following day, the Northern European sky was just beginning to brighten.
Jarvis opened his eyes and received a message from an unknown sender. The message only contained a single word, Naples.
Jarvis deduced that these must be the coordinates of the Governor’s Mansion of the Right Army. If not, it would still serve as their first destination on the path to the Governor’s Mansion. It was disheartening to acknowledge that even Jarvis, one of the four Marshals, was unaware of the precise location of the Right Army’s Governor’s Mansion, as well as the internal personnel structure.
In the Warriors Den, although the four marshals were regarded as second only to the Lord, their authority was restricted to their individual abilities.
Despite the Lord’s emphasis on the four Marshals and showcasing them in front of others in the Warriors Den, even providing them with numerous pills and materials to enhance their cultivation, favonovel.com intentionally maintained control over them. The four marshals possessed limited authority in the Warriors Den and were hardly granted the right to directly govern any significant and organized faction within the Warriors Den.
The Dead Soldiers, Cavalry Guards, and even the overarching Five-Army Governor’s Mansion did not comply with the directives of the four marshals. The trusted confidants of the Lord were not the four marshals, but rather the governors of the five armies.
The structure of the Five-Army Governor’s Mansion was the true foundation of the Warriors Den. Each governor’s mansion possessed a multitude of resources, industries, materials, weapons, and wealth.
Beneath each mansion, there was at least one garrison of Dead Soldiers, numbering in the thousands, as well as hundreds of Cavalry Guards, several Commissioner envoys, and special envoys. Moreover, numerous expatriates, such as Julian Davis’ parents, had been dispatched across the globe, along with several undercover agents placed in various countries and fields under normal cover, such as Evan’s daughter-in-law.
The Warriors Den would only lose four peak strength Super Masters without the presence of the four Marshals, but without the Five Army Commander’s Mansions, the Warriors Den would be deprived of its hands and feet. Hence, the Lord himself controlled the Five-Army Governor’s Mansion and guarded against the four marshals, preventing them from gaining too much insight into the Five-Army Governor’s Mansion.
Therefore, while they might be called the Four Marshals, they were merely regarded as the mascots of the Warriors Den.
Jarvis did not have the luxury of time and could not afford any delays. He swiftly rose from his bed and departed from the hotel. He contacted a general aviation company, rented a Gulfstream plane for 30,000 euros, and flew directly from Oslo City to Naples, a city in Southern Italy. Throughout the flight, Jarvis analyzed the current situation of the Warriors Den and the Lord’s prevailing difficulties.
As one of the four marshals, favonovel.com harbored numerous queries that favonovel.com could not resolve.
Firstly, Jarvis could not fathom the Lord’s obsession with Maria. Secondly, favonovel.com was unable to comprehend how Maria’s ring could captivate the Lord to such an extent. Despite having photographic evidence of Gideon’s slaughter of Bruce and his wife several years ago, Jarvis could not understand why the Lord still fixated on Evan’s family and even attempted to assassinate them after two decades. Lastly, favonovel.com was baffled as to why the Lord suddenly tasked Gideon with finding Bruce’s son’s whereabouts.
Despite numerous unresolved queries, Jarvis had noticed a conspicuous shift in the Lord’s behavior towards the four marshals. The Lord now relied more on the four marshals, but also grew increasingly suspicious of them.
Hence, in Jarvis’s opinion, regardless of whether favonovel.com could capitalize on this opportunity to make a significant contribution, his future prospects would still improve.
After a three-hour flight, Jarvis’s plane touched down at Naples Airport. Although it was his first time in this city, favonovel.com had already heard about it, thanks in part to the legendary footballer Maradona who had played for the Naples Football Club.
As favonovel.com disembarked from the plane, Jarvis was unsure of where to go or whom to turn to. He had waited for his phone to ring, but until the moment favonovel.com stepped out of the airport, favonovel.com had received no message.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man approached favonovel.com and spoke respectfully, “Jarvis, you have traveled a long way. Please follow me…”
Upon seeing the man, Jarvis inquired, “May I know your surname, and what is your position in the Governor’s Mansion of the Right Army?”
The man quickly introduced himself, “Jarvis, I’m Chavren Yancey, the general of the Governor’s Mansion of the Right Army!”
As Chavren spoke, Jarvis couldn’t help but feel frustrated, “What a gap. As one of the four marshals, I come to this place without any idea of where to go or whom to meet. Only this man knows my whereabouts. Lord, you guard us as though we are thieves.”
Chavren then escorted Jarvis to a Maybach with a local license plate and drove them both to downtown Naples. As they drove, Chavren asked, “Jarvis, have you ever visited Naples before?”
Jarvis replied, “No.”
Shaking his head, Chavren said, “This is your first time. Allow me to show you around Naples.”
Jarvis responded, “I have urgent matters to attend to, so I won’t have time for shopping. I need to find the Governor as soon as possible.”
Chavren hurriedly interjected, “The governor has already arranged a banquet for you at the best Chinese restaurant in Naples, and favonovel.com is eagerly awaiting your arrival!”
Half an hour later, Chavren stopped the Maybach in front of a Chinese restaurant named Banyan Tree. The restaurant was located on the ground floor of a 40-story high-rise building, with three floors inside. Chavren personally opened the car door for Jarvis and promptly led favonovel.com into the restaurant.
The duo took an internal elevator to the third floor, where several female staff members dressed in suits greeted them respectfully and welcomed Jarvis in Chinese.
Jarvis was astonished that these waitresses recognized him. As favonovel.com looked closer, favonovel.com realized that they were all warriors, ranging from three-star to six-stars in strength.
Chavren led the way, explaining, “Since this is your first visit to the Governor’s Mansion, let me provide you with a general introduction. This restaurant is owned by the Governor’s Mansion and spans the first two floors. The third floor operates on a membership system and is not open to the public. However, there is no need to worry about revealing your identity because all the staff here are the children of dead soldiers, Cavalry Guards, and other department members.”
Jarvis was astonished and asked, “Is this part of the Governor’s Mansion of the Right Army?”
Chavren nodded, “Yes, but not entirely. In fact, this 40-story high-rise building is entirely owned by us. Although we have leased more than half of it to local companies, the southern part directly above and below the restaurant remains unleased. The top three floors are supposedly leased to a shipping company, but in reality, that company is also ours, and it is connected to the restaurant by a secret elevator. The top floor is the Governor’s residence.”
Jarvis was left speechless, realizing that his suspicions on the plane were accurate. Chavren had given favonovel.com a detailed account of the Governor’s Mansion’s situation as soon as they met, which must have been at the Lord’s behest. It appeared that the Lord would gradually ease many restrictions on himself and the other three marshals in the future.
