Chapter 717

The lady was none other than Scarlet Spanner, one of the two well-known aces of the Spanner family and the best Goddess of War Dragonmarsh ever had.

“As expected of the one and only Goddess of War. It’s truly amazing how she made her appearance! “Dylan exclaimed inwardly, marveling at her.

She had just jumped from a height of over 300 feet and appeared to be perfectly fine. That was no feat that an ordinary human could accomplish! Though he was from the Dark Panther Cavalry, he had only ever seen her heroic moves from afar. To be able to see her pull such a dangerous stunt up front and near truly left him shell-shocked.

“Welcome, General!” Her two trusted aides bowed and greeted her first.

“Welcome, General!” The rest of the troops followed after them, bowed, and greeted her. Their voices reverberated throughout the entire military base.

Scarlet gave them a sweeping glance. It was nothing more than a simple act, but everyone felt an inexplicable pressure just from her gaze, making it difficult for them to even breathe. It wasn’t until Scarlet looked away that the pressure gradually disappeared.

She walked up to her two confidants and asked casually, “Do you have any information on the person I was looking for?”

The two major generals were named Georgia and Bridget, respectively.

“We’ve searched the entire Millsburg for someone with the same name, but none of them was the person you wanted. We suspect that the person isn’t here,” Georgia said with her head bowed.

“That’s impossible!” Scarlet said. “Adam would never have the guts to lie to me. He must be here but under a different name. Keep searching!”

“Yes, ma’am!” Georgia answered and quickly left with her men.

“I plan to stay here for an extended period. Get me a place to stay,” Scarlet ordered.

“I’ve already arranged for that, General! It’s at Fallonge estate,” Bridget reported.

“Lead the way!” Scarlet wasted no time on small talk.

“Yes, ma’am!” Bridget nodded and drove off with Scarlet, leaving the rest of the troops in their dust.

“Who exactly is the Goddess of War here for, General Winslow? She seems so anxious to find that person.” Dylan could no longer hold in his curiosity when he saw the car leave.

“How would I know?” General Winslow rolled his eyes. “Who dares meddle in her personal affairs?”

“You’ve got a point there.” Dylan chuckled awkwardly. Scarlet was an intimidating figure in the army, so nobody dared speak freely about her.

“I’m not sure who she’s after, but I’m certain that it’s a man,” General Winslow said thoughtfully.

“A man?” Dylan’s eyes widened. “No way! What kind of man can make the Goddess of War place such importance on him?”

Scarlet was such a skilled martial artist, second to none, and was an amazing woman who

trumped every woman in Dragonmarsh. If word were to get out that she had traveled such a distance to Millsburg just for a man, it would create a significant commotion among the public! At the thought of that, Dylan could not help but feel slightly jealous. Scarlet was a gorgeous fighter who was beyond everyone’s reach. To be able to get Scarlet’s attention was something worth boasting about. Dylan wondered who the lucky bastard who caught her eye was.

Over in the moving car, Scarlet carefully pulled out a well-kept photograph. In it were a teenage boy and girl, at the peak of their youth. The young girl leaned on the boy’s shoulder, a hint of a smile replacing her usual aloof expression. Looking at the pair of youths in the photo, a look of melancholy came over Scarlet, as though she was reminiscing about the past.

After gazing at the photograph for a moment, she pressed it to her chest and sighed. “Where are you, Logan? I’ve been searching for you for the past 10 years.”
