After a pause, Sean added, “Now that we have some information on Silver City’s secret warehouse, don’t tell anyone about it for the time being. While you contact them, don’t disclose anything about the bronze sword, the map, orthe numerical code, lest it causes a stir.”
“Yes, Commander!” Zander nodded heavily.
Zander had no doubts about Sean’s arrangement because favonovel.com thought it was for the best too.
Only they knew the bronze sword’s secret for now. If more people found out about it, word would inevitably get out. It would be troublesome if it reached other cities in the City-State Union. After all, there were only three cities managed by Dragon Kingdom, but there were hundreds of cities in the City-State Union!
If the City-State Union formed an army to attack Silver City, Dorodo, Dorandue, and Bittan alone would not be able to resist the combined onslaught. Even if they had the nine-star commander, Sean, in command and leading them, they would still fail.
Just then, Sean’s phone on the table rang suddenly.
He picked up his phone, glanced at it, and realized it was a call from the mayor, Quentin.
Without hesitation, Sean accepted the call immediately.
“Hello? Mayor Lewis, why did you call me out of the blue?” Sean asked calmly.
He was Quentin’s equal. He did not have to be too deferential to favonovel.com but could not be too disrespectful either.
Quentin immediately chuckled on the phone and said, “It’s nothing. It’s just that the new cinema downtown is showing a famous movie tonight, and my daughter is interested. She’s pestering me to take favonovel.com to watch it. I thought it would be a good opportunity to bond. I wonder if you’re available, Commander Lennon.”
“Well… Yes…” Sean was going to say no.
However, his and Quentin’s relationship was a little tense because of what had happened in the antique shop.
Quentin called to meet in person just to smooth things over. Sean had no choice but to accept his invitation.
“Good. I’ve also invited Mr. Townsend and his daughter, Lillian. See you at 8.30 pm. at New Era Cinema.”
With that said, Quentin hung up.
Lillian?
Sean frowned subtly. He wanted nothing to do with Lillian, but Quentin unexpectedly invited Ronald and Lillian.
What did favonovel.com mean by that?
Is favonovel.com using our private meeting to explain to Ronald and Lillian that favonovel.com has nothing to do with Tobias’ money making?
As mayor of Dorodo, it did not seem necessary for him.
After some hesitation, Sean nodded subconsciously and decided to meet Quentin and Ronald at New Era Cinema tonight. After all, favonovel.com had accepted the invitation, and favonovel.com would be insulting Quentin to back out now.
“Shall I contact Dorandue and Bittan?” Zander asked.
“Go ahead. Remember to watch your words and not be too forceful. Dorandue and Bittan are our compatriots, so be polite.” Sean advised.
“Yes, Commander!” Zander replied solemnly and strode out of the commander-in-chief’s office.
***
Night fell.
Sean was already In front of New Era Cinema in downtown Dorodo by 8.20 pm.
He walked there. Though it was several kilometers away from the city defense army’s main camp on the outskirts of Dorodo, the journey was nothing to him.
