His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 3171

On the other side of the table, Riccardo was visibly anxious the moment he heard Sohail's words. Without a moment’s hesitation, he spoke up, "Fine, Sohail. We'll stop complaining. Then, what do you think we should do now?"

"Should we continue obeying the orders? If we do, we'll lose more of our people. The Combat Readiness Committee is down to less than two hundred members."

Sohail remained silent. After some time, he said, "Let's give it one more day. I will bring this matter up to the superiors tomorrow. If they can't give me a suitable explanation, well leave."

"Leave?!"

At the mention of the word "leave”, Sheldon's expression changed drastically as he questioned, "You want us to leave? People will think that we chickened out! If that happens, our reputation will be ruined! If that happens, I'm afraid that it'll be the end of the Combat Readiness Committee.”

Riccardo sounded as if he was overwhelmed with emotions. "Well, that beats letting us die for nothing!"

"We are martial artists. We are soldiers. Either die on the battlefield or die in the hands of our enemy! What's the point of us deliberately tormenting our people?"

"Worse comes to worst, we'll be a local despot and do whatever we like."

Sohail interrupted, "Riccardo, don't be so impulsive. Mr. Chung and Madam Camelia are communicating with Mr. Long. Who knows? Maybe well hear something from him soon."

At the mention of that, all of them fell silent as they were all reminded of Lundie.

"Where on earth did Brother Chen go? Why isn't there any news about him? If he's here, he would definitely have come up with a solution," Riccardo pointed out.

"Mr. Chen visited Yandover City for an investigation. We lost all contact with him as soon as he entered the forest. We sent someone to investigate. Some said that the aura in the forest encountered a drastic change. There seemed to be a lot of attacks by vicious beasts. I also heard that Daryl from the Dragon Force died in the forest. It may have something to do with Mr. Chen," Sheldon conjectured.

"Daryl, it must be Kohen's doing. They might have started to launch their attacks on Mr. Chen, and now, the enemies have come to attack us, yet everyone here does nothing to unite. All they want and think about is getting a piece of their territory, and they will do what it takes to plot against their people. They are all useless!" Riccardo cursed, fuming.

Sohail slammed his palm against the table and announced, "That’s enough. We shall all end this topic. Be on the alert. Now, go and get some rest. I'll visit Yose tomorrow."

After the meeting, Sheldon and Riccardo stood up and were about to leave.

Right at the moment, however, a black shadow appeared in the tent all of a sudden.

The trio in the tent instantly had their guards up and witnessed as the black shadow's positive energy began to surge, forming a triangular shield that surrounded them.

At the same time, Sheldon hissed, "Who are you?"

Hearing the voice, the figure turned around and spoke, his voice deep and powerful, "Sohail, Sheldon, Riccardo! It's me!"

The three of them were stunned upon hearing the familiar voice. They stared in the direction of the voice upon coming to their senses. In an instant, a look of pleasant surprise emerged on their faces.

"Brother Chen, you're back!"

"Mr. Chen, you... What are you doing here? "

"What exactly happened, Mr. Chen?"

Fade was immediately bombarded with questions.

He waved a dismissive hand and slumped into a nearby seat, announcing, "I'll tell you everything when we have the time. Now, I have something important to announce."

"It's military-related."

With that, the three immediately put on a solemn face as they settled in their seats at once.

"What is it?"

Fade's gaze swept past the three of them before he solemnly began to say, "As we speak, the Joint Army is heading in our direction. They are preparing to launch a surprise attack..."
