Chapter 557

Before the opponent uses scent-eliminating agents, the scent they've picked up becomes extremely faint, almost imperceptible.

"Let's go to the military headquarters—move quickly!"

"Yes!"

What Su Yang must do now is find the spy who has infiltrated the High Command of the Western Military Department.

Su Yang has a hunch that if he captures this high-level spy, he'll gain a massive amount of mission contributions.

Never underestimate the role a high-level spy can play in a war!

Especially when this spy has infiltrated the High Command of the Western Military Department.

If conditions are right, this spy might even influence the entire course of the war!

If this high-level spy holds a high enough position, he could obtain all Western Military Department operational plans, troop movement routes, the movements of major units, and possibly the combat ranks, fighting styles, and pet beast types of numerous officers…

If the Shoushen Sect learns all of this, it would be a terrifying disaster for the Western Military Department.

One misstep, and the Western Military Department's forces might suffer a devastating blow.

Only by capturing that spy can Su Yang and his team know exactly what intelligence the Shoushen Sect has obtained from the Western Military Department!

Su Yang turned his head and asked: "Did you report the presence of a high-level spy among the High-ranking military command?"

Zhou Wanshan said: "Of course I reported such an important matter!"

Su Yang pursed his lips, feeling uneasy in his heart.

Zhou Wanshan said: "Commander Su, rest assured—the people I've sent out are the most trustworthy!"

Trustworthy?

There is no one in this world you can truly trust!

Su Yang summoned Storm Eagle, stepped on the carriage, and leapt onto Storm Eagle's back.

"We've come this far—I don't want any mishaps. Come with me!"

Zhou Wanshan sighed: "Commander Su, is this really necessary?"

"I'm just impatient!"

Large-scale military campaign missions are exceedingly rare, and the rewards are extraordinarily generous.

Yet without King-level power, it's hard to influence the course of the war.

To achieve a Perfect rating in such a mission, Su Yang must race against time.

A sense of urgency drives him from within!

"I admire Commander Su's decisive nature—our Western Military Department didn't make a mistake bringing you on!" Colonel Tao Sheng stepped forward, smiling as he summoned his flying pet beast, "Let's go together!"

"Alright then!"

Seeing that Su Yang and Tao Sheng were flying off, Zhou Wanshan could only follow.

At the Western Military Department base in Chengxi, a Platinum-rank Beast Master hurried to He Gang's office.

"Deputy Wang, if you wish to see General He, please arrange it immediately!"

"What's the emergency?"

"Commander Su has destroyed a secret Shoushen Sect Sect base!"

Deputy Wang praised: "Commander Su is truly formidable—in just half a day, he located the Shoushen Sect Sect base. No wonder Shoushen Sect Sect members fear him!"

"Yes, Captain Su is indeed formidable!"

Deputy Wang asked quietly: "So, did Commander Su obtain some extremely important intelligence from the Shoushen Sect Sect disciples at the base?"

"Yes—they have another extremely dangerous accomplice. Zhou Wanshan told me to inform General He immediately!"

Deputy Wang nodded: "Understood. Wait outside—I'll notify General He."

"Thank you, Deputy Wang!"

Deputy Wang gently pushed open He Gang's door.

He Gang looked up and asked: "What is it?"

"Lieutenant Colonel Zhou has sent an urgent message—it seems there's major progress in the operation to root out the Shoushen Sect Sect spy."

"Have him come in."

Deputy Wang glanced at He Gang's teacup and said: "General, let me refill your tea."

"Hmm."

Deputy Wang carried the teacup out.

When He Gang heard Zhou Wanshan's message, his face darkened, dripping with gloom.

There was a Shoushen Sect Sect spy among the High Command of the Western Military Department, and this spy had been continuously transmitting classified Western Military Department intelligence to the Shoushen Sect Sect in recent times.

As a seasoned general with decades of battlefield experience, He Gang knew exactly what this meant!

It meant every military operation of the department was likely known to the Shoushen Sect Sect!

It meant every unit dispatched by the department could be ambushed at any moment!

Beads of sweat began to bead on He Gang's forehead.

"Who else knows about this?"

"No one outside has been told," the officer replied. "Only Commander Su, Hao Ren, Deputy Liu, Colonel Tao Sheng, Lieutenant Colonel Zhou, and myself know."

"Go back and tell Zhou Wanshan to temporarily seal this information," He Gang ordered. "Be sure to tell Commander Su to capture the spy as soon as possible and find out exactly what intelligence the spy has stolen from us!"

"Yes!"

After Zhou Wanshan's subordinate left, He Gang slumped back in his chair and slowly lit a cigarette.

Everyone envied his high position and great power, but who knew the pressure he bore?

The door opened, jolting He Gang from his thoughts—he looked up and saw Deputy Wang entering.

Deputy Wang placed the teacup on his desk before him.

"General, did Lieutenant Su discover something?"

"Mm!" He Gang nodded. "Send someone to notify Bi Sheng—tell him I need to speak with him urgently!"

"Yes!"

At this moment, the person He Gang trusted most was still Bi Sheng.

The Emergency Unit was also an elite beast-taming force of the Western Army.

Bi Sheng, commander of the Emergency Unit, was the person He Gang trusted most.

The two had fought side by side on the battlefield for years, bound by life-and-death loyalty.

Deputy Wang left He Gang's office, returned to the secretariat, and handed a file folder to another deputy officer: "Deputy Duan, I have an urgent matter to notify Commander Bi. Here's the General's schedule—cover for me."

"Brother Wang, no problem, leave it to me!"

"Thanks for your help!"

"Not at all, not at all!"

After smoking a cigarette, He Gang became thirsty.

He reached out to pick up his teacup, when suddenly he saw several beast mounts flying toward the office window, carrying people.
