Desbarres had lost a lot of weight recently. Those who knew the inside story knew why he lost weight. It was a flawless plan, but in the end, it turned into a trap. And most importantly, they were the ones who fell into the trap.
The one who suffered the heaviest loss this time was the Bone Symbol Camp. This was because not only was the Bone Symbol Camp's number one general, Tie Sheng, the number one newcomer, Zhao Hai, as well as Margaret, who had a close relationship with the Bone Symbol Camp. It can be said that the Bone Symbol Camp suffered heavy losses this time.
Although Margaret was the one who insisted on going, Dillard and the others knew that if something happened to Margaret, then Desbarres would be responsible for it. The Desbarres Family wasn't a very reasonable group of people.
But the only good news was that the Zhang Family hadn't sent any news about the capture of the Ashley Family's Outer Court members. Previously, the Zhang Family had sent the core members and some Outer Court members who were responsible for this operation back. Moreover, they had already warned the family.
Moreover, the Zhang Family had sent word that if they captured a large number of the Ashley Family's outer court members, then the Zhang Family would publicly sever their relationship with the Ashley Family.
Naturally, the Zhang Family wouldn't acknowledge this. However, this matter was like a huge stone that was pressing down on everyone's heart. This was especially true for Desbarres. During this period of time, Desbarres had lost a lot of weight.
Although the family didn't look for trouble with Desbarres, Desbarres' days weren't good. Zhao Hai was the hope of the Bone Symbol Camp's revival. But now, he didn't know if Zhao Hai would be able to come back. This gave Desbarres a headache.
Moreover, Zhao Hai would represent the family in the Six Realms Beginner Competition. If Zhao Hai couldn't come back, then the family's loss would be huge. This would also become an excuse for the Patriarch to look for trouble with Desbarres.
In this situation, Desbarres couldn't help but lose weight. As the day of the qualifiers approached, Desbarres' expression became more and more haggard. This caused the other Battalion Commanders of the eight camps to feel a sense of sympathy for Desbarres.
The situation of these Camp Commanders was similar to Desbarres. Although they had some authority, it wasn't that much. Among them, Desbarres had more authority than them. After all, Desbarres grew up with the Patriarch and was deeply trusted by him. Moreover, Desbarres had the authority to control the eight camps.
Although they were in a competitive relationship with Desbarres, they were still a small alliance. This was because the Outer Court was a weak group in the family. If they didn't unite, then they wouldn't have any right to speak.
Now that Desbarres was about to run out of luck, their mood naturally wouldn't be good. Even Dia, who had always been against Desbarres, didn't hit him when he was down.
In fact, it wasn't just Desbarres, the entire Bone Symbol Camp wasn't having a good time. There was a time when Zhao Hai appeared and defeated everyone from the other camps to become the champion of the family's qualifier. They thought that the Bone Symbol Camp had hope of reviving. However, they didn't expect such a thing to happen. This made the Bone Symbol Camp feel an unprecedented disappointment.
People were like this. If something didn't happen in the beginning, then they wouldn't have any hope. But if they were given hope, then their hope would be shattered. This would magnify their disappointment infinitely.
The mood of the Bone Symbol Camp had reached its lowest point. Although Tao Wang saw this situation, he couldn't do anything. He also felt powerless. In the past few days, Tao Wang had lost more weight than Desbarres. He wasn't fat to begin with, but now, he looked like a bag of bones.
Seeing that there were only ten days left before the qualifier, Desbarres and Tao Wang were already in despair. They knew that even if Zhao Hai and the others came back, it would be after the qualifier.
The two sat in silence in Desbarres's office. They had lost interest in talking for a while. At this time, someone suddenly ran in from outside. The person looked at Desbarres and said, "Camp Lord, come and take a look. Something happened."
Desbarres stared and said, "Something happened? What happened? "
The person excitedly said, "Captain Ironborn, Captain Ironborn is back!"
Upon hearing this, Desbarres and Tao Wang stared. The two looked at the person and didn't react for a while. After some time, the two stood up and said, "What happened? Where is Ironborn? "
The person excitedly replied, "He should be in the camp. Camp Lord, come out and take a look." Desbarres and Tao Wang didn't wait for the person to finish speaking before they ran out.
When the two arrived at the Bone Symbol Camp's square, they discovered that the place was already filled with people. A huge spatial rift had appeared in the square. People were constantly coming out of the rift.
These people were covered in dust and looked somewhat distressed. However, none of them were injured. Moreover, they were in good spirits. Among these people, one person was standing in front of the rift, directing people to come out. This person was Ironborn.
Desbarres took a deep breath before his figure moved and flew to Ironborn's side. He looked at Ironborn and said, "Ironborn, what happened?"
When Ironborn saw Desbarres, he quickly gave him a salute and said, "Camp Lord, we're back. We came back safely. It was Zhao Hai. He used his spatial ability to send us back."
Desbarres looked at the people coming out of the spatial rift. He kept looking for Zhao Hai, but he couldn't find him. Ironborn saw Desbarres' actions, so he smiled and said, "Camp Lord, there's no need to worry. Zhao Hai is behind us. He's fine."
Desbarres nodded. He calmed himself down before he helped the people who came out. The people who came out of the spatial rift didn't leave the Bone Symbol Camp. Instead, they were divided into groups. Desbarres could see that these people were divided according to their camps.
At this time, almost all of the people who went to the Bone Symbol Camp had returned. These people were excitedly talking to their acquaintances. From time to time, bursts of laughter could be heard.
Seeing this situation, Desbarres felt relieved. Moreover, he estimated that the losses of the eight battalions weren't very heavy.
In less than an hour, everyone came out of the spatial rift. The last ones to come out were Zhao Hai and Margaret. Zhao Hai's expression was calm while Margaret's face was full of joy. However, she still followed Zhao Hai, just like a wife following her husband.
When Zhao Hai came out, the spatial rift immediately closed. Desbarres immediately went to greet him. When Zhao Hai saw Desbarres, he immediately gave a salute and said, "Camp Lord, I'm back."
Desbarres hugged Zhao Hai and laughed, "Good. It's good that you're back. You've worked hard this time."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "It's nothing. Camp Lord doesn't need to take it to heart."
Desbarres nodded, then he turned to the other camps and laughed, "Today is a happy day. You don't need to leave. Stay in the Bone Symbol Camp and have a meal. Tao Wang, arrange for the other camp Lords and inform them of the situation. Tie Sheng, arrange for everyone to freshen up. I'm going to see the Patriarch."
Tao Wang also arrived in front of Zhao Hai and gave Zhao Hai a hug. Then he nodded and turned around to leave. Tie Sheng nodded and then arranged for everyone to rest in the Bone Symbol Camp's building. Desbarres immediately flew towards Sublime Demon Island.
Margaret also had her own house in the Bone Symbol Camp's building. Moreover, it wasn't far from Zhao Hai. The two of them also returned to their own rooms to freshen up. In the meteorite area, they simply didn't have the conditions to take a bath. Although everyone can use water magic to make water, there was no place for them to take a bath. Because of this, everyone was covered in dirt.
Originally, Charles and the others were preparing to return to their own camps. However, Desbarres had already informed the other Camp Lords. They couldn't help but give Desbarres face.
At this time, Desbarres had already arrived at Sublime Demon Island. This time, he didn't take a flying carriage and directly flew over. After arriving at the island, Desbarres immediately went to Thunder's study. This was also where Thunder's office was located.
In the Ashley Family, there weren't many people who could directly go to Thunder's study like Desbarres did. This was also a display of Desbarres' status. Cadjo wasn't in Thunder's study. Cadjo was the Great Patriarch of the Ashley Family. It was impossible for him to follow Thunder like a secretary. Naturally, Thunder's study was attended to by his secretary.
After arriving outside the study, Desbarres immediately turned to Thunder's secretary and said, "Report to the Patriarch, I have something important to tell him."
Naturally, the beautiful secretary knew about the relationship between Wood and Desbarres. She didn't dare to be negligent, so she immediately took the communication device and pressed a button. Then she used her sweet voice to say, "Patriarch, Desbarres wants to see you. He said that he has something important to discuss."
Thunder's voice was heard, "Have him deliver it." The secretary nodded and then invited Desbarres in. However, Desbarres couldn't wait to enter Thunder's study.
Thunder was currently sitting there looking at a document. Although computers were running rampant in the Machine Field, some documents were still presented on paper.
Desbarres bowed to Thunder and said, "I've seen the Young Master." Thunder looked at Desbarres, then he nodded and said, "Have a seat, Fatty Desbarres. You've lost a lot of weight recently."
Desbarres smiled and said, "Young Master, rest assured. I'll be fat soon. All of the people who went out for the mission have already returned, including Zhao Hai and Miss Margaret."
Upon hearing Desbarres, Thunder couldn't help but stare. Then he put down the document in his hand and looked at Desbarres as he said, "What happened? What happened? "
Desbarres quickly replied, "I heard from Tie Sheng that they were sent back by Zhao Hai's Space Magic. They're now in the Bone Symbol Camp. I've already arranged for them to freshen up. When they return, I'll treat them to a big meal. They must've suffered a lot."
