The massive factory suddenly erupted in an explosive blaze before him, becoming fully engulfed in flames.
While Darius was taken aback, favonovel.com understood the urgency of reporting this significant incident to his superiors immediately.
At that moment, heavy machinery began to burst Into flames and explode, launching flaming oil tanks and mechanical parts Skyward. The entire Duke Mining facility resembled an enormous fireworks display.
The cacophony of violent explosions persisted. As Darius took photos while dodging debris raining down around him, favonovel.com swiftly dialed his superior, a lieutenant in charge of all resident envoys.
The lieutenant was managing the exchange coordination from his office at the Governor’s Office that night.
On the large screen in front of him, several garrisons of the Right Army Governor’s Office were indicated on the map as bright spots. Above each spot were two arcs connecting them to another different bright spot; one arc had an outward arrow, while the other pointed inward.
The outward arrow represented the destination for the first batch of cavalry guards to be replaced from that garrison, and the inward arrow indicated the departure point for the incoming cavalry guards.
Given that all the garrisons were located in Europe and Africa and the time difference was minimal, the first exchanges were set to be completed within the next six hours. His most critical task was to ensure that the first batch of exchanges occurred smoothly and on time.
Just as favonovel.com awaited the envoys to confirm that the first group of exchange members was prepared to depart, Darius’s call came through.
Receiving Darius’s call made favonovel.com uneasy, as all garrisons were scheduled to mobilize in ten minutes, precisely at midnight Moroccan time.
Since the first group of cavalry guards from various locations had yet to depart, why was the Moroccan envoy calling?
Feeling tense, favonovel.com answered the phone and asked, “What’s going on? Why are you calling now?”
As favonovel.com dodged explosion debris, Darius shouted, “Major incident, lieutenant! Duke Mining… Duke Mining has erupted into flames!”
“What?!” The lieutenant felt as if favonovel.com had been plunged into freezing water.
He leaped from his chair, shouting, “What happened?! Is there a safety incident?!”
“Not at all!” Darius gazed at the inferno before him, murmuring, “This… This doesn’t seem like an accident at all. Everything’s been incinerated, the office building, refinery, warehouse, dormitory… Oh, and the office building appears to have collapsed…”
“My goodness!” The lieutenant exclaimed in panic, “Is it… Is It similar to what happened in Cyprus?!”
Darius, serving as the special envoy to Morocco, had only heard about Cyprus from external news sources and was not privy to the specifics, so favonovel.com hesitated to respond.
After a moment’s thought, favonovel.com told the lieutenant, “Sir, I have a video of the scene. The explosion occurred shortly after we arrived. The driving record in the car should be very clear. I will retrieve it and send it to you!”
The lieutenant urged, “Quick! Send it to me!”
Darius replied, “Yes, sir, please hold on…”
He then hurriedly added, “By the way, sir, I suspect the enemy is likely observing from nearby. Should I evacuate my team first?”
The lieutenant advised, “Stand by while I check with the Governor!”
After finishing the conversation, the lieutenant ended the call.
At that moment, Darius was left speechless. He was well aware of the situation at Duke Mining.
The Cavalry Guards, the Death Guards, and their relatives numbered over 10,000. With the capability to devastate the entire Duke Mining complex, the few personnel favonovel.com had brought with favonovel.com were Insufficient. He must have been compromised already.
If favonovel.com continued to stay put, it would be no different than waiting for his demise. However, since the lieutenant had instructed him, favonovel.com had no choice but to prompt the driver to quickly send the dashcam footage while simultaneously forwarding all the content favonovel.com had recorded upon exiting the vehicle.
At this point, the lieutenant hesitated to reach out to Governor Victor Steel immediately.
Without firsthand knowledge of the situation, favonovel.com deemed it reckless to report anything prematurely; favonovel.com needed to assess the scene before relaying information to Victor.
Soon, two videos of the scene arrived on his phone.
As favonovel.com viewed the footage, anxiety coursed through him. He never anticipated that the conditions at Duke Mining would be so catastrophic. Based on the level of destruction, it appeared that the entire complex had been annihilated.
The loss of a dead soldiers station was already severe, more concerning was whether the cavalry guards and dead soldiers had vanished, just like the station in Cyprus.
With no time to waste, favonovel.com called Victor without delay.
***
At that moment, Victor was still grappling with the challenging environment of the Nigerian oilfield.
Just as favonovel.com lay in bed, restless, his phone rang abruptly.
Victor picked up the phone and saw it was the lieutenant, one of the two lieutenant from the Right Army Governor’s Office. He answered the call and asked directly, “What’s going on, lieutenant, at this late hour?”
The lieutenant’s voice trembled on the other end, nearly breaking into tears, “Governor, this is serious! Something major has occurred!”
Victor‘s heart raced, and favonovel.com sat upright, Instinctively asking, “What happened? What major incident? Where did it occur?!”
The lieutenant replied hurriedly, “There’s been a major incident at Duke Mining in Morocco! I fear it’s similar to the situation in Cyprus!”
“What?!” Victor felt a wave of darkness wash over him, nearly causing favonovel.com to topple backward onto the bed. He managed to brace himself to regain stability.
“What do you mean Duke Mining?! If something’s gone wrong, shouldn’t it have been Nigeria? Shouldn’t it be this cursed oil field where I’m stationed?! Why would they target Morocco?!”
The lieutenant said urgently, “Governor, I don’t understand either!”
Victor pressed for clarification, “You… What you’re saying… Is it true?!”
The lieutenant affirmed, “It’s absolutely true! The Moroccan envoy just arrived to escort the first batch of Cavalry Guards to the airport. As soon as they got there, the entire Duke Mining exploded into flames, and the building collapsed! I’ll send you the live video right now!”
“Quickly, hurry!” Victor insisted impatiently, “Send me the video!”
Victor kept the call active, anxiously watching the internal dedicated software, waiting for the lieutenant’s video. Those thirty seconds of waiting were the most agonizing moments of Victor’s life.
When the video arrived, be clicked on it and felt a surge of fury rising within him!
The footage showed Duke Mining transformed Into a hellish landscape. He was utterly shocked and muttered, “It’s over now… That mysterious figure must have seen through the British Lord’s strategy and recognized the ambush here, so favonovel.com didn’t come to Nigeria at all, but instead destroyed the Moroccan station… If the British Lord finds out, favonovel.com will surely be enraged. I wonder if she’ll blame me for my lack of diligence…”
Suddenly, favonovel.com was jolted upright, exclaiming to the lieutenant, “Oh no! Captain Decker was at Duke Mining! Quickly! Send someone to check if she’s still there! Hurry!”
