Chapter 171 Large-Scale Action
"I don't know if that's good news."
Detective Antonio, who looked tired, once again visited the home of magic professor Dulan after a long interval.
There are only three people present, and Roderick will not appear here due to the sensitive issue of his identity.
However, the news and discussions here will be conveyed to Roderick later.
"Nearly a month has passed, and the summer vacation is almost halfway over. Matatek's official strategy for the drug lords in the north and south has finally ended at about the same time."
"……it's over?"
Du Lan, who already looks quite old in appearance, looks more like a staid old man when he becomes serious.
"They...really succeeded in defeating the two major drug lords in this country? So the Golden Witch..."
"The news is the latest. I just received it. Fortunately, I have been able to have enough funds to establish good relations with certain people recently. I am certain that the two major drug lords located at the north and south ends are indeed Annihilated."
Antonio didn't have any information or evidence. After all, the information returned from the inquiry could not leave any entity.
"As for the matter about the golden witch who may be in the south... I haven't heard of it. There is no news. Even if there is, I guess the white knights over there will thoroughly control the news. My opinion is, don't hold any It’s just a matter of luck.”
"That's right...even if the golden witch may be in the south, it's just a clone controlled from a distance, and the location of the real body is still unknown..."
Dulan never takes any chances, but he must admit that he still had a sweet dream in his heart.
If the White Knight could really completely destroy the Golden Witch, he would wake up laughing even in his sleep.
Unfortunately, reality is reality after all.
"Let me tell you some details about things between the north and the south..."
Antonio's memory is very good, but he doesn't know many details about the relevant aspects. What he can say now is only a brief report.
Half a month before the start of the summer vacation, the officials of the United States of Matatec began a major operation.
The officials are determined to dispatch the army to eliminate the major drug lords in the north and south who have taken root in this land during the dictator's period.
Unprecedentedly, they united with the international police and white knights, and even received support from the great northern country of the United States of Eureka, and launched a majestic but undisclosed large-scale operation.
After a whole month, the large-scale military operations in the north and south were finally over.
The Matatek officials naturally claimed victory, but it is said that they also suffered considerable losses, so it could not be considered a complete victory.
"In any case, the power of these two drug lords can be regarded as a warlord in the local area. When the civil strife ended, the two drug lords took in many rebels and guerrillas. In addition, They have hoarded arms for many years and have consolidated their power for a long time, so even sending out the army took a lot of effort."
Even if Antonio had never been a police officer, he had grown up in this country and knew a lot about the big drug lords in the north and south who were like independent forces in a country within a country.
"After the civil strife ended, I heard that the officials wanted to clear out the two drug lords as soon as possible, but the officials were obviously not ready. Moreover, where the two drug lords were, their influence was deeply rooted and they couldn't take action if they wanted to. So simple."
It can be said that Matatek officials have endured their anger for five years. They should have been accumulating strength and looking for allies to ensure that they can effectively uproot the power of the two drug lords.
It is said that Matatek officials did not initially think about obtaining the power of the White Knight. After all, the White Knight specializes in black magic and is not a convenient violent device. There are certain conditions for its deployment.
However, before the expected large-scale military operation began, Matatek officials found evidence that some major drug lords from the north and the south were involved in black magic, which created a reason to ask the White Knight to dispatch.
In the end, Matatek officials mobilized their own army, combined with the international police and white knights, and also received additional help from the northern allies to form a joint force to annihilate the major drug lords in the north and south. power.
"I heard that the officials did not originally intend to delay the war for such a long time. According to their initial estimates, it would be over in half a month at most. However, since the bases of the two drug lords are located deep in the mountains, it is quite difficult. It was inconvenient to move, so it was delayed a bit.
In addition, I heard that a large part of the local residents are secretly supporting the drug lords, and are quite unfriendly to the forces sent by the government. "
They are always troops dispatched in an official name, and there are also supporting forces from other countries. It is impossible to attack civilians directly. The most they can do is to imprison civilians who obstruct the operation and try them at a later date.
"That's what I say, but the main reason why I don't take action against civilians is not because of this."
Antonio sneered.
"This is to create a good impression."
"The election is coming, that's all."
Duran shook his head subtly.
"It has been five years since the civil strife ended, which means that a new round of presidential elections is about to begin."
"The presidential election..."
Annan is quite unfamiliar with so-called presidential elections.
The reason is also very simple. The original person who was born during the chaotic period has never experienced such a thing.
Annan, who had not inherited this kind of memory, naturally had no corresponding feelings.
"This is the first presidential election for Matatek after almost half a century... No wonder the officials would choose to conduct military operations at this time. It's all for the sake of a good reputation. Let’s consider it an actual achievement.”
Dulan was not born in this country, but even so, knowing the chaotic history of this place, he couldn't help but feel filled with emotion.
“The dictator has ruled this country for almost forty years. Although with the efforts of the rebels from all over the country, they successfully joined forces to invade the capital and defeated the dictator’s army, but because the crazy dictator pretended to surrender, all the people were taken away. The rebel leader was introduced to the presidential palace, and finally came a relationship of mutual destruction, thus starting a decade-long period of civil strife and civil war..."
Dulan didn't know what the future of this place would be. He was too busy taking care of himself that he had no time to pay attention to such a great thing.
However, peace is indeed the best.
Although he, the child of the witch's clone, just took advantage of the country's chaotic period to sneak in here.
"The presidential election seems to be held in early October, right? I hope everything ends smoothly."
