Noland Lee stood beside the magic wand deep in thought, his gaze moving across the Magic Protective Cover, seemingly discerning the Undead Runes on it.
He raised the Rune Staff, glancing around, giving the signal that he was about to modify the Undead Runes, allowing the surrounding warrant officers to be mentally prepared.
Captain Murphy said:
“Modify the Undead Runes without hesitation. Even if there are mistakes, causing the ‘Death Storm’, it doesn’t matter. The power of this Magic Protective Cover is weak and not enough to threaten your lives and ours.”
“Yes, Chief Officer.”
Noland nodded, extended the Rune Staff, and placed the tip on the surface of the Magic Protective Cover.
After drawing more than a dozen lines in a row, a crack opened on the Magic Protective Cover, and black Death Energy spewed out from it, soon dissipating and disappearing in the air.
The breaths of the warrant officers around became heavy, seemingly shocked by the sight.
Noland put down the Rune Staff and said in the surprised eyes of the officers:
“Report, Chief Officer. I only know a small part of the Undead Runes on this Magic Protective Cover. I have modified the Undead Runes I recognize. As for the remaining Undead Runes, I did not take the initiative to modify them on my own.”
“Well done, Jarvis,” Captain Murphy closed the metal box and put it back at her feet. Then she said to the warrant officers on both sides:
“Do you believe it now? As long as you have the original text and translation, and the Rune Staff, anyone can modify the Undead Runes, not just the monks of the Undead Cult or the members of the Death Herald Guild.”
Lieutenant Slyke Thompson placed his ten fingers on the table, exchanged glances with the other officers at the meeting place, and nodded to each other.
Lieutenant Slyke Thompson said:
“Well then, Commander Murphy, we accept your proposal. Private Second Class
Jarvis may join the Elite Squad and assist us in military actions near the Underground River. However, we reserve our opinion on Private Second Class Jarvis’s loyalty.”
Lieutenant Slyke Thompson flipped through the files in front of him:
“We noticed that Private Second Class Jarvis has not received a systematic education from the Empire’s Military Academy. In other words, there is no credible record in terms of the loyalty assessment. He never swore under the Holy Statue of the Emperor. In contrast, Corporal Mars, as a distinguished graduate of the Empire’s Military Academy, possesses ample conviction and unquestionable loyalty, and has also studied modern literature and educational sciences.”
Lieutenant Slyke Thompson paused and looked at the frosty Captain Murphy and said:
