The morning rose a little late because of the rain. It was cold as night even after the sun had already risen above the Andes Mountain Range.

The defeat and the spreading poison in the camps had delivered a huge blow to the army’s morale, just like the gloomy sky without the slightest glimpse of sunlight.

Mo Fan was sleeping lightly. He was dreaming about the delicious seafood back in his homeland when a pungent and burning smell assailed his nostrils and woke him up.

“Don’t tell me they are using human fat to cook us breakfast!” Zhao Manyan swore as soon as he was woken up by the terrible smell.

“A fire broke out,” Mu Bai woke up earlier than them. He gave Mo Fan a wet towel and said, “The quarantine zone where the infected are at has caught fire.”

“Bullsh**, why would there be a fire when it’s raining so heavily?” Zhao Manyan ran out of the tent and looked at the quarantine zone.

He did see flickering flames. The horrible smell was coming from the same direction. He bent forward and vomited when the wind swept at him, along with the foul stench.

“That is seriously the worst cover-up I have ever seen,” Mo Fan swore quietly, staring at the fire.

“It’s better than burying them alive,” Mu Bai agreed quietly.

“The Federation Army is going to lose the whole war if we can’t take out the Venomous Insects Shamans after such a stupid act,” Mo Fan swore.

To think that a fire would break out exactly at where the infected were while it was raining heavily, as if it was trying to burn away the negative impact and emotions the poison had brought to the army.

The truth was, it was unlikely the injured in those camps could recover in time for the next battle. The Federation Army would only be short a few thousand men.

However, their idiocy was impacting the morale of the entire army. It was worse than the impact of the Venomous Insects Shamans’ poison!

“I seriously don’t understand why we have to involve ourselves in this mess,” Su Xi’s boyfriend spoke up from nearby.

Su Xi was an Asian and most likely from China too, thus she was amiable toward Mu Bai, Mo Fan, and Zhao Manyan. She had brought them some boiled eggs for breakfast.

Su Xi’s boyfriend was French, with curly ashen-gray hair and a handsome face. His outfit was different from the others, even though they were going to war. He was very concerned about his appearance and style.

He was a little displeased when he learned Su Xi was visiting the three Asians again.

“You have joined the military and become murderers and butchers in a war, despite being students of the Aorus Sacred Institute. Don’t you feel it’s going to soil your souls and beliefs? I seriously don’t understand what you are thinking,” Su Xi’s boyfriend Karl went on.

“Uh… is there a difference? Aren’t you the same too?” Mo Fan was dumbstruck.

“We are not the same! We followed Professor Xylan here to stop the Venomous Insect Shamans from harming society in the name of war. We are obeying the Magic Rules and are here to maintain order in South America!” Karl declared righteously.

Zhao Manyan gave Karl a round of applause. If he had a pair of scissors and a red piece of paper, he might have even cut out a red flower and slapped it on Karl’s chest.

Brigadier General Blair came up to them. “Fellow teachers and students of the Aorus Sacred Institute, the army will be setting out soon. Our strongest and deadliest troop of Brutal Lizard Knights will be leading it.”
