"You're slandering me! Why would I collude with the Guild of the Wicked? You attacked a soldier on duty! You're trying to endanger the military academy! That's a capital offense!" the guard said, wiping the blood off his face.
"Mr. Mofan, please stop using magic. This is a military academy. You can't use magic here, no matter what the reason is. Otherwise, you will be executed according to the laws of our country. The dignity of the military is not to be violated," Jessica said anxiously.
As long as Mofan stopped using magic, it could be treated as a personal matter between him and the guard. Jessica was confident that she would be able to keep it under control.
However, if Mofan caused trouble in the military academy, or even threatened the life of a guard, it would be difficult for General Long Eyebrows to calm down. After all, Secretary Richard was in charge of the military academy.
"Normally, I wouldn't offend a soldier like you, but this is a good reason for me to offend you," Mofan said to Jessica.
"You're putting yourself in a desperate situation!" Jessica said.
"It's fine, I'm speaking on behalf of justice," Mofan said.
Speaking on behalf of justice?
In jESSICA's eyes, Mo Fan was more like a demon king that was not afraid of anything. How could there be a representative of justice who would dare to trespass into a military school and beat up the guards, even though the guards were clearly asking for a beating!
"HAHAHA, speaking on behalf of justice … I can't believe I'm hearing a criminal say something like that in my military academy. How interesting!" A clear and bright laughter came from the building of the Military University, and a man wearing a blue navy coat walked out in large strides.
His face was covered in a beard. It felt like his eyes were covered in hair. Mofan did not understand why someone liked to look like that.
"Secretary!"
"Secretary!"
"Secretary!"
The guard limped over to Secretary Richard, whose face was bruised and swollen.
Babbitt was standing next to Secretary Richard.
Babbitt was as dejected as the tattooed man before. However, after standing beside Secretary Richard, Babbitt's mental state was completely different. It was as if he had been resurrected. His entire body was filled with the nobility and pride of a superior person.
"Babbitt, is this the backer you're looking for? Your Guild of the Wicked has a wide range of businesses. Even the military academy has become your safe haven? "Mofan asked Babbitt with a smile.
"You lunatic, demon, bandit! Not only did you kill so many members of my chamber of commerce, you even broke into the military academy! Secretary Richard will surely uphold justice for me!" Babbitt said in a polite tone.
"I have a recording here. Don't say such things. JESSICA, can you play my voice recording? Do you have a broadcast or something? "Mo Fan asked jESSICA.
"Yes, I do," jESSICA nodded and received the evidence from Mo Fan.
Secretary Richard asked Jessica, "Jessica, do you know him?"
"Secretary, this is Sir Mofan, an expert specially hired by the general. He and his friends killed the Steel Mountain Giant and the Cruel Sea Serpent for us. They've contributed greatly, "Jessica replied.
"So, it's the little hero. It must have been a misunderstanding. Officer Heit, you were practicing magic with Sir Mofan and accidentally injured yourself. The other officers on duty mistakenly thought that an enemy had invaded the academy. That's why things ended up like this, right? "Secretary Richard asked with a smile.
Heit was stunned. He purposely turned around and glanced at the aggressive Mo Fan.
This guy was the one who had killed the Steel Mountain Giant. No wonder he was so strong!
"Yes, yes, we were practicing magic," Officer Heit said bitterly, covering his broken front teeth.
"It was indeed a misunderstanding. How could anyone break into the military academy of Crete? Even the Black Vatican wouldn't dare … Everyone, go back and rest. Sir Mofan, please go back as soon as possible. I will give you an explanation for what happened to the chamber of commerce," Secretary Richard said.
"I'm here for an explanation … Oh, no, I'm not here for an explanation. I'm here for a result. Secretary Richard, let me ask you, are you a member of the Guild of the Wicked? "Mofan asked.
"How bold of you, you are slandering an officer of our country!" Officer Heit snapped.
"I'm not, I don't have many identities. I'm just the principal of Crete's military academy and the Secretary of Crete's war zone," Secretary Richard replied sincerely.
"Babbitt, I think you've got the wrong person. Secretary Richard isn't your superior. Secretary Richard, I have solid evidence that Babbitt is a member of the Black Ornaments of the Guild of the Wicked. He's quite a high-level member. Are you okay with me taking his life? "Mofan asked.
Secretary Richard frowned.
What was wrong with this young man? He had already given him a way out by asking him to leave in one piece. Not only did he not know what was good for him, he even asked such a retarded question!
"I'm not a court of law. I can't tell if Babbitt is a member of the Guild of the Wicked, so he's still our business partner until he's convicted. He will deal with the corpses of the Tyrant Titans we killed and provide our frontline soldiers with excellent defensive equipment," Secretary Richard said.
"Have you heard a story about a war, Secretary?" Mofan asked.
"Go ahead," Secretary Richard said patiently.
"A soldier was assigned by his superior to guard a wall. He had to shoot anyone who tried to cross the wall, regardless of whether they were civilians or enemies. As a matter of fact, they were the invaders. The wall was supposed to stop the people of the land. They were about to lose the war, so the land was going to be returned to the people. He was guarding the wall. Even though he knew that there were no more enemies, he still killed the civilians who tried to climb over the wall. After the war, he was accused of killing civilians. In the military court, his answer was, "I was just following my superior's orders and following my duty as a soldier," Mofan said.
Everyone in the military academy was listening to Mofan's story, including General Jessica and the guard.
The story was very representative. The order was to kill civilians, but the soldier who disobeyed the order would be sentenced to death, too. Was he guilty or not?
"I've never heard of the story before, but I'm wondering what your opinion is," Secretary Richard said.
"The court found him guilty. He couldn't choose not to shoot, but he could choose to raise the muzzle by ten centimeters, "Mofan said.
The people from the military academy were all stunned when they heard this.
Everyone, including Jessica, was caught up in the question of whether to shoot or not.
It was his duty to shoot, but it was the soldier's choice whether to hit the target or not!
"It's an interesting story, but not everyone was as smart as you," Secretary Richard said.
