Chapter 414: Chapter 341 Setting Off Chapter 414: Chapter 341 Setting Off If Yanluo issued a new wanted order, under the mutual assistance agreement, Great Flame would also review and list it on the wanted list.
However, the extradition of prisoners was quite a troublesome matter. Too many variables could occur during the process of leaving the country’s borders.
If it was an ordinary prisoner from another country, they would just stay in Great Flame after being captured.
Only particularly special prisoners might be extradited back to the country that initially issued the wanted order after negotiations.
Xu Fengtian raised his hand and signaled: “Manager Wu, you explain it.”
The black-faced middle-aged man behind him acknowledged with a sound and then began introducing the task to everyone.
“Hello, everyone. I am Wu Jianghao, the manager of North Pole Prison. This time, we need to extradite a few prisoners to Yanluo Country.
Among this batch of prisoners, some held high positions in Yanluo Country, some are from northern gangs, and some are notorious Evil Card Masters…
This journey will inevitably cause a significant commotion.
We have arranged sufficient armed forces. Besides myself, there are eight accompanying Shining Star Level members in the team.
But to prevent any incidents during the journey, we need to request the help of experts from the Sky Patrol Department. We will rely on you.”
Xiong Chunyang laughed heartily: “Manager Wu, don’t be so polite. I, Old Bear, will do my best.”
Tang Jiao asked: “Manager Wu, do you have more detailed information on these prisoners?”
“Of course.”
Wu Jianghao turned his hand and handed the information to Su Yuan and the others.
“Everything is detailed in here.”
Su Yuan glanced briefly, the identities of several prisoners were roughly as Wu Jianghao had described, and he was not familiar with the specifics.
Beside him, Lin Chongyun and Xiong Chunyang also glanced casually.
However, Tang Jiao frowned slightly upon seeing something.
Wu Jianghao then detailed the specifics to everyone.
“Any other questions?” Xu Fengtian asked finally.
Lin Chongyun’s eyes sharpened, he asked: “Envoy, our task is only to ensure the prisoners are safely delivered to Yanluo Country, right?”
Su Yuan and the others couldn’t help but turn their heads upon hearing this.
Lin Chongyun’s question basically inquired whether they needed to care about the safety of other personnel in the team, including Wu Jianghao.
After all, in a real crisis with limited strength, a choice might need to be made between ensuring the prisoners and helping other team members.
With Wu Jianghao present, Lin Chongyun’s question seemed quite straightforward.
But Wu Jianghao laughed brightly and answered before Xu Fengtian could speak: “Envoy Lin, no need to worry about us, just make sure the prisoners are delivered.”
Lin Chongyun nodded: “Understood.”
Xiong Chunyang grinned as well, he thought this was best.
But Tang Jiao frowned slightly. Coming from a military background, she naturally hated to easily abandon teammates.
Su Yuan remained silent, sitting quietly.
Xiong Chunyang asked: “Envoy Xu, Manager Wu, when do we depart?”
Xu Fengtian replied: “If you are ready, you can depart now.”
Xiong Chunyang laughed: “No need to prepare, let’s go then!”
The others agreed.
Xu Fengtian said: “Then I wish you all a smooth journey. Manager Wu, take action.”
“Alright! The transport team is ready. Envoys, follow me.”
Wu Jianghao led Su Yuan and the others straight down from the inn to the vicinity of the western city gate.
“Manager Wu, everything is ready.” A Shining Star Level supervisor greeted.
Su Yuan turned and saw seven prisoners bound hand and foot by prison-designed Scattered Spirit Locks. Two to three held together, they were confined in Solid Rock Cages on the backs of three Solid Rock Dragons.
The Solid Rock Dragons were Shining Star Level Star Beasts controlled by Beast Taming Talismans, superior in defense and constitution. They were usually used to transport important prisoners.
This detention team with three Solid Rock Dragons drew the attention of many passersby.
Manager Wu nodded and said to Su Yuan and the others: “Envoys, shall we?”
“Alright.”
A group of over a dozen people, along with the three Solid Rock Dragons, left North Pole City’s west gate, heading northwest.
With their pace, they covered over ten kilometers in a short time.
As they moved, Tang Jiao gathered Su Yuan and the others together.
“Everyone, since this is a team effort, at least we should know each other?
This mission won’t be simple. Communication and cooperation will be necessary.”
Coming from a military background, Tang Jiao emphasized team collaboration.
Xiong Chunyang was the first to respond enthusiastically: “I am Xiong Chunyang. I used to be active in the Western Desert. I’m back in Great Flame for certain reasons and coincidentally received this entry exam for the Sky Patrol Department.”
Tang Jiao looked at Xiong Chunyang with a tense expression: “Xiong Chunyang, the Furious Bear of the Western Desert Twelve Evil Stars?”
Xiong Chunyang scratched his head and laughed: “Hey! Didn’t expect you to know me, what an honor!”
Su Yuan and Lin Chongyun also looked at Xiong Chunyang, realizing he was a well-known figure.
Su Yuan was not familiar with the western gangs, only knowing of the Quicksand Sect.
The Quicksand Sect had only one or two ordinary Shining Stars, not high-level, and had been eradicated by the Evil Punishment operation.
And Xiong Chunyang, a member of the “Twelve Evil Stars,” sounded significant, likely a notable figure in the Western Desert.
Indeed, ‘significant’ was an understatement. Among western gangs, his name resonated powerfully.
The Twelve Evil Stars referred to the twelve most formidable Shining Star Levels in the Western Desert.
Xiong Chunyang first gained fame in a gang brawl where he fought seven Shining Stars alone, including two Epic Shining Stars.
Although severely injured in the battle, he killed four, gaining immediate fame!
Afterward, he became unstoppable, defeating various gangs and sects.
His encounters with other Evil Stars ended in stalemates.
Xiong Chunyang lit a cigarette, casually asking: “You, girl, you should be from the military, right?”
Tang Jiao nodded: “Northern Military District, Tang Jiao.”
She turned to Lin Chongyun and Su Yuan: “And you two?”
Lin Chongyun said: “Zicheng Mountain, Lin Chongyun.”
“Oh, from a Hidden Sect?” Tang Jiao showed some surprise.
Xiong Chunyang curiously sized up Lin Chongyun.
Hidden Sects were recognized by Great Flame and had illustrious histories of significant contributions, qualifying them for continuation.
With the establishment of academies, these Hidden Sects no longer widely recruited disciples but remained more low-key than noble families.
Occasionally, Hidden Sect disciples would still emerge.
Currently, Great Flame continued to have four main Hidden Sects, one being Zicheng Mountain.
Lastly, Su Yuan introduced himself.
“Demon Capital Academy Su Yuan, recently graduated.”
“An academy student?” Xiong Chunyang sneered, eyes narrowing, “Did you join the Evil Punishment Operation two years ago?”
Su Yuan shook his head: “No, I didn’t.”
Seeing Su Yuan seemed truthful, Xiong Chunyang relaxed: “Good, or I would have challenged you!”
Xiong Chunyang, from a western gang and part of the Evil Punishment, had avoided being targeted but held disdain for academy students relying on teachers’ influence.
Tang Jiao and Lin Chongyun, from the military and Hidden Sects, hadn’t heard of Su Yuan and thought he looked too young.
After introductions, Xiong Chunyang asked: “Girl, you seemed concerned earlier. Any issues with this mission?”
Tang Jiao seriously said: “We might encounter trouble within two days.”
“Oh? Tell us.”
Tang Jiao pointed to a black-bearded middle-aged prisoner: “He’s Wei Jinxiang, an Epic Shining Star Level Star Card Master. Capturing him took a lot of effort last year.
He’s also the brother of Wei Jinrui, president of the Hundred Flames Association in Xunyang Domain. This powerful northern organization has many Shining Star Level Fire Element Cultivators.
With Wei Jinxiang being transported, the Hundred Flames Association might act.”
“Great, a chance to show our strength!” Xiong Chunyang laughed, “If there’s no challenge, I’d look down on the Sky Patrol Department!”
Tang Jiao frowned: “Watch your words. Show respect to the Sky Patrol Department!”
Xiong Chunyang dismissively grinned: “I joined for the challenges in the Sky Patrol Department. Let’s hope it’s not all smooth sailing!”
Seeing this, Lin Chongyun frowned too: “Completing the mission is the priority. Let’s not stir up trouble.”
Xiong Chunyang’s eyes flashed with a hint of menace.
“Not worth arguing!” Xiong Chunyang laughed, moving ahead alone.
Tang Jiao sighed, shaking her head.
All were high-level Shining Stars, each with distinct temperaments.
Su Yuan remained silent, watching the prisoners on the Solid Rock Dragons’ backs.
With the Sky Patrol Department assigning this entry test, trouble was inevitable. They would handle any issues, ensuring the prisoners were delivered to Yanluo Country.
