"Luo Mian … it seems like you're hiding a lot of things from me?" Councilman Zhu Meng was aware of something too. He glared at Councilman Luo Mian with a goatee.
Councilman Luo Mian put on a fake smile. He did not look scared at all as he said, "We'll have to look into the matter eventually, but we should focus on the matter at hand first. The army is already at our doorstep. Do you think the Royal Court still has the time to fight among themselves?"
Commander Yun Feng nodded and said, "The army of White Magic Falcons will reach the defense line of West Fortress in less than two hours. Our defense line can only hold on for three hours at most. They will most likely break through and invade Hangzhou City. We only have five hours. What we need to do now is stop the army of White Magic Falcons, or kill the Ruler-level demon falcon! "
"Yes, yes!" Councilman Luo Mian nodded. He was afraid that someone would mention the blood serums again.
Leng Qing took a step forward and said, "Since the army of White Magic Falcons is attacking Hangzhou City recklessly because they are infected by the plague, I believe we should find a way to cure the plague as soon as possible. That way, the army of White Magic Falcons will no longer have a target, and it will be a lot easier for us to drive them away. "
"You sound like you've already found a way to cure the plague," said Councilman Luo Mian with a weird grin.
"Yeah, even Mr. Lu was helpless against the plague. Now that we only have five hours, how are we going to resolve the crisis of the army of White Magic Falcons?"
"We've already found the cure. It's a unique herb that grows in West Ridge, the Red Falcon Herb. If we can find the herb, the plague will be cured in no time," said Leng Qing.
Everyone immediately focused their attention on Leng Qing, especially Councilman Zhu Meng. He asked with wide eyes, "Is the Red Falcon Herb really able to cure the plague?"
Leng Qing nodded and said, "Yes, it's true."
"Hehe, let's not talk about whether the Red Falcon Herb is able to cure the plague. No one is allowed to set foot in West Ridge, since it's the nest of the White Magic Falcons. Don't tell me that the appearance of the White Magic Falcons is the perfect opportunity for us to sneak in? Even if we send out an entire army, we might not be able to reach there safely. Do you think we still have the extra manpower to do something so ridiculous? "Councilman Luo Mian was still laughing.
Leng Qing and the presiding judge, Li Tian, glared at the gloating Councilman Luo Mian, especially Leng Qing. She swore in her heart that she would definitely send this Councilman Luo Mian to the Ministry of Justice's prison after this matter was settled.
The group frowned too. They had finally found a way to get rid of the plague, which was the key to defeating the White Magic Falcons, yet the Red Falcon Herb was located at the most dangerous place.
"By the way, the White Magic Falcons are the same species as the Heavenly Eagles. Normally, the White Magic Falcons wouldn't attack the Heavenly Eagles. If we send a Heavenly Eagle to West Ridge to collect the Red Falcon Herb and bring it back, wouldn't the plague in the quarantine zone be solved easily?" Commander Yun Feng suddenly said.
At that instant, Commander Ming Kuo whispered into Commander Yun Feng's ear, "Commander, did you forget that you were the one who gave the order to kill all the Heavenly Eagles in the fortress …"
Commander Yun Feng turned around and glared at him with a dark expression, implying, You're the one who talks too much.
Not a single Heavenly Eagle could be found in West Ridge. Even if they did find a Heavenly Eagle, it would betray them under the pressure of the Ruler-level White Magic Falcons. How could it possibly sneak into West Ridge, where the White Magic Falcons were located?
The meeting room soon fell into a dead silence. No one could come up with a better solution to the crisis. At that instant, the door of the meeting room was slammed open by a young man. A young man with a naive look stumbled into the room. Two guards rushed into the room furiously and were about to toss him out when the young man yelled, "I have a way to collect the Red Falcon Herbs! I have a way to collect the Red Falcon Herbs! "
Commander Yun Feng glanced at the young man and scolded, "Where did this impolite kid come from? Drag him out and punish him with the canes."
"This is a strategic meeting. How can a kid like you cause trouble here?" snapped Councilman Luo Mian furiously.
"Wait, this young man is the one who helped us to find the source of the plague. Let's hear what he has to say," said Leng Qing.
"Let's hear what he has to say," said the Elder of the Magic Court Li Tian.
Councilman Luo Mian burst out laughing, "I've purposely come here to discuss the solution to the crisis. Who would have thought that not only would you make such a ridiculous statement, you would even allow a kid to cause trouble. If you're really that useless and wasting my time, I, Luo Mian, am not going to keep you company."
Saying this, Councilman Luo Mian rose to his feet and left the room. It was as if he had nothing to do with it. He was trying to get rid of all the blame.
The crowd exchanged glances with one another, not knowing what to do.
Leng Qing asked Wang Xiaojun patiently, "You mentioned that you have a way to collect the Red Falcon Herbs. What is it?"
Mofan and Ling Ling, who were waiting at the entrance of the meeting room with Wang Xiaojun, took the opportunity to barge into the room. Mofan glanced at the young man curiously. How was it possible for the kid to collect the Red Falcon Herbs from the nest of the White Magic Falcons? As Councilman Luo Mian mentioned, it was impossible to break into the nest of the White Magic Falcons without an elite troop.
Wang Xiaojun glanced at the authorities around him, who he had never met before. Although he was slightly intimidated, he cleared his throat and said, "There's another Heavenly Eagle, there's another Heavenly Eagle in West Fortress! If it obeys my orders, I can ride on it and sneak into West Fortress to collect the Red Falcon Herbs. Besides, I'm the most familiar with the Red Falcon Herbs. "
Commander Ming Kuo glared at the long-bearded man and said in a loud voice, "Weren't all the Heavenly Eagles executed? Why do you have another one here!? "
"I disobeyed the order and let go of the Heavenly Eagle that I've raised since I was young," said Wang Xiaojun softly.
Commander Yun Feng's eyes flickered. The order was disobeyed at the perfect time!
However, the Commander soon frowned and shook his head, "It's useless, it's useless. Every Heavenly Eagle has lost its mind because of the Ruler-level Magic Falcon. It's lucky that they didn't betray us. Why would they still obey the orders of a Beastmaster?"
Wang Xiaojun was afraid that the guards would chase him out of the room. He blurted out, "My Heavenly Eagle's lineage is mixed. Its hair is gray, and I'm not sure what kind of lineage it is. Yesterday, I tried to communicate with it, and it responded to my flute. I initially thought it was under the Ruler-level Magic Falcon's control, but it doesn't seem to be the case. I can summon it back from the woods. If it returns to me, it means it's not under the Ruler-level Magic Falcon's control. "
