Bang…

Of course Mr Gaja was only testing Oliver to see if he was the person who took out Mr. 18 by giving a wrong description of Mr. 18,  but the dumb dragon actually agreed that he had seen that guy.

Oliver didn't even see how the elephant moved, but the trunk was already on his chest.

The dragon was sent spiraling like a cannonball, he made another small crater where he landed.

But before he could steady himself and stand up, the elephant leg was already above him to stamp him into a paste.

Oliver could only defend with both his hand making a cross guard and burning more of his warrior sense.

Bang… crack…

The crater increased in size and Oliver was submerged into the soil, but he was not ideal either, after utilizing his whole strength to defend, he was in a position to attack.

With a rumbling roar the dragon opened its mouth to attack with a Dragon breath on the under belly of the elephant.

The elephant was sent back into the air, even though Mr. Gaja was strong, dragon breath was one of the most dangerous moves of any dragon and the temperature of the flame was very high, so he could only take some minor injury and retreat.

Mr. Gaja was intending to capture the dragon alive if possible so that he can further interrogate him further, regarding this guy's accomplice who had escaped earlier.

But he needed to beat this dragon down severely before he even had a chance to use his capturing move and succeed.

....

After around 8 or 9 minutes Dror regrouped with his men, he was glad to see that other than some injured there was no causality among his men.

Old Zhao and the rest had a beaming smile on their face after seeing their leader return without much injuries.

But Dror found that the reinforcement from Oliver's team was not there anymore, with some inquiry he found that the 200 men who came as reinforcement went away after receiving some orders from their higher ups, either way they didn't need any reinforcement.

Dror gave a sigh in his mind after recalling Oliver's beaten up figure he thought " hah.. what can I say evil begets evil… that is why I am so honorable and upright .."

For some reason dark clouds and lightning formed above him , probably even heaven wanted to strike down this hypocrite.

Dror also met with his deputy who was meditating, but the happiness could be clearly felt on his beaming face even while meditating and recovering.

The mission this time was a big success, It wasn't long before  they returned to the base.

The whole young dragon company celebrated their success with a party, even the commander and vice commander were invited and appeared.

But unlike the commander , vice commander Frank's face looked weird , he was in a situation where he didn't know whether he should be happy or sad.

While the earth base was celebrating,

a red dragon with serious injuries, bleeding through different wounds  and with one of its wings  torn off, arrived at one of the teleportation points for the space base.

Clearly Oliver had to pay a great price to escape from the clutches of Mr. Gaja.

Fire was still burning in Oliver's  eyes, but this was no ordinary fire but a fire of deep hatred and anger.

By now the first prince had also received the news and was in a weird state of mind. All kinds of emotion was passing through his mind anger, hatred , jealousy…. Clearly he was angry about the fact that he couldn't achieve his objective and he was jealous at the fact that Dror's company was the only one that completed the mission properly and earned the recognition of the Kings council and higher ups.

The other four teams that he had sent were able to damage the facility but the damage was limited, while Dror's team had blown up the entire main facility.

If the first prince was to know that they were also able to grab one of the agents of the shadow hand, it won't be long before he would break his own teeth while grinding it in anger.

It was the same situation at one of the Alliance headquarters .

Mr. Gaja along with the Alliance President was bowing in front of a 3D projection.

The President was in a much better position today as it was this haughty elephant that had come forward and took action, so the majority of the blame was on  him.

But still the President received all the curses and admonishment with a bowed head, either way most if it was directed at the bulky guy standing besides him.

" Return back immediately  and receive your punishment."

" yes master.."

Mr. Gaja could only lower his head further.

The 3D apparition continued.

" The damage is already done, I want the rebels to pay in blood. They should know what happens when they mess with me… Lauren you should know what should be done.."

" Yes my lord, I understand.."

Alliance president had an evil glint in his eyes as he replied.

Ever since his brother was executed, this backer of his has held him back from making any major moves that would create any major disturbance .

But now that the lord had given the order personally he could do whatever he wanted.

…..

After the celebration Dror was in a meeting with the commander along with his men.

" What is it that you wanted to discuss, Dror.."

It was Xeander who replied " We had a lucky encounter today, we got to take down an agent from the shadow hand…"

The commander was too surprised to close his own mouth

" what, what  did you say… you took down a shadow hand agent "

Dror and the rest nodded agreeing, Commander could only take another deep breath before looking at them with a little doubt.

" Are you sure it was a shadow hand agent…"

Xeander took out a black crystal token  with a black hand carving with two words shadow hand on the front and the number 18 on the behind.

The commander took hold of this intricately carved token crafted from an unknown crystal, as soon as he took it into his hand he could feel the dark element essence in the surrounding better, this was not just a identity token but had other unknown functions.

Commander more or less trusted their claim, then he received a black belt from Xeander.

"This is one of the storage artifacts of the agent but I found it weird, there are some runes and tiny formations inside it which prevent me from accessing the insides, please take a look commander.."

the commander sent his spiritual sense into it before replaying.

" good thing that you didn't try to force open the thing, it would have collapsed the entire space along with the content inside if you would have done that.."

After concentrating some more with a serious face, while utilizing his warrior qi along with the spiritual sense the commander broke through the restriction.

He took out what was inside the ring for the rest of them who were curiously observing to see.

Their were some high grade pills and  some weird artifact, what got everyone's attention was the 7 intricate big bottles sealed with runes and formation, the interesting thing was that the contents of the bottle was something that they didn't expect.

" Is that the seeds of the Maveth flower…"

It was Xeander who spoke in a doubtful manner.

The commander was also really surprised when he first noticed this, after hearing Xeanders words he nodded .

" yes….. I need to inform the king's council and the Raven master, you have collected the agent's body along with all his belongings right.."

Xeander nodded " yes commander I have collected everything that I thought could be of  use.."

Dror has not spoken much but all kinds of different thoughts and assumptions were playing out in his head.

He didn't have much knowledge related to the shadow hand, but according to what he understood from talking with Xeander.

This shadow hand was the most secretive organization in the entire Alliance government and has direct relation to the power house that had supported the seven families in the rebellion.

Not just Dror, the rest of the people were also developing a vague idea but none of them were sure.

The long time rumors and conspiracy theories had stated that the power house behind the seven families had taken control of the whole planet to use it as a harvesting planet for Maveth flower, but there was no major evidence suggesting that this was the case.

But what if the Maveth flower itself was not the power house was after, what if it was the seeds of the Maveth flower that the power house was after, it would make sense.

There was no known use for the seeds other than to create evil artifacts or as poison, other than that the seeds seemed very useless and something that could be ignored.

But the fact that the Maveth flower seeds were very rare throughout the star system even rarer than the Maveth flower itself as not every flower has seeds inside it, along with the fact that it was secretly carried by  a secret agent and the seeds were preserved so perfectly using such high grade container , which would only be used to contain heavenly herbs or pills arose serious suspicion.
