Another World Mall-Chapter 506: Discussion
Military Base 059.
"What? Are we going to really allow this? Their intention should be clear enough to us. Are we letting them just snatch one of us?" A lieutenant asked while furrowing his eyebrows. "This doesn’t make sense why you would allow this."
"It’s not me who allows it, but…" The general pointed up. The only one that could make him follow orders would be the headquarters. The old general that might have retired but still held an extremely high position in the military.
Some crossed their arms, some looked excited, and some remained neutral.
"I think this is a good opportunity," one of them said while raising his hand. "If they want to take Lucifania, I’ll support them."
"What did you say? She is our doctor."
The guy looked back with a dark expression. "Do you think I don’t know that? However, even though she is our doctor, the men are scared of her. You should know what she has been doing in the past three years, right?
Going around with a knife and bloody appearance after dissecting the beasts, grinning when staring at the guys as if she wants to chop them up, playing around with corpses, even outside her laboratory."
He wanted to list everything, but all of them already knew what she did.
He coughed to calm down and speak in a calm tone again. "While I can acknowledge her skill, she is still too much for our army. It won’t be good for our men. It’s better to get a more normal doctor."
"But don’t you think we have to convince that old man? Her teacher is that Marcus. Don’t you know how many people he has saved in his entire service?"
The people were arguing whether to let her meet them or not until one of them asked, "But the fact that the higher up is allowing them to meet means the higher up has also persuaded Marcus Solm. Isn’t that how it usually goes?"
They suddenly fell silent. That was probably the case. There was no way the higher up left everything to them.
"Does that mean we have agreed to let her meet them?"
"Not yet. We don’t know anything about them. Isn’t the higher-up too hasty with their decision? What are they going to give us?"
All of them looked at the general. The latter simply said, "100 men will be going to the capital city to receive the new beast soul right away."
"New beast souls?"
"Haven’t you seen the new beast soul that the OpenSky company introduces?"
"Oh, that? We can get one?"
The general nodded. "We’ll be giving 500 beast souls that we manage to find in this place no matter the tier. In exchange, they’ll give 100 new beast souls every month until a thousand people receive them. And Lucifania will meet them. Whether they manage to convince her or not, it’s up to their luck. Is there any other concern?"
One of them raised his hand. "This is not a concern, but shouldn’t we ask Lucifania’s thoughts about this?"
"If there is someone who will give her an explanation, it will be her teacher, not us." The general shook his head.
"In that case, we should meet these poor guys who decide to take her in."
"Poor guys…" They all exchanged looks. Even though they didn’t admit it, they couldn’t help but agree.
After all, each of them knew how bad she behaved.
While she didn’t break any rules, she had indeed traumatized most of their men.
"As for that…" The general raised his head.
…
A few days later.
"Hmm? A mission?" Lucifania crossed her arms.
"Yes. This is a mission. I want you to go with Team Exa02 to a designated spot. After that, you are to go to the east and stop in this location." The general showed the location on the device.
Lucifania squinted her eyes before asking, "Does this mean I’m getting kicked out of the army?"
"Have your teacher told you something?"
"Only that I should meet a group of kids and consider their offer carefully. He leaves the decision in my hands."
"It seems that you know everything."
"So I have to meet these kids here?"
"Do you know them?" The general asked.
"I searched for them on the Skynet. Their reputation didn’t look so good. They were canceled on Skynet, but…" Lucifania paused for a moment. "They look strong. It’s not normal for a Tier 2 kid with a strength equal to that of a Tier 5. In addition, the group does seem unusual.
Maybe I will find something interesting in them."
"Is that so?" The general nodded in understanding, thinking that Lucifania would definitely go with them.
However, she added, "Still, they are kids. Even their captain is 12 years younger than me. In addition, they don’t have the resources that I can receive in this base. It’ll be different if they get the full support of the OpenSky company though."
"Anyway, you’ll be meeting them in that place. I don’t know why exactly either. If you want to ask, it’s better to ask…" The general pointed up again.
Lucifania sighed. "Alright. I’ll pack up my luggage. When do I leave?"
"In 2 hours."
"Understood." Lucifania thought for a moment and chose not to salute.
The general smiled wryly. She must understand that they were trying to dump her away, but he had to admit that she was better than most doctors.
…
Thirty minutes after Lucifania’s departure, a bus entered the military base. The bus was fully covered with curtains so that no one could see what was inside.
However, the bus was still allowed to enter inside the base.
After parking next to the main building, Clovis came out of the bus while looking around. It was true that they had to meet Lucifania outside, but they had to accept the mission from the general first.

"So this is the military base." Clovis smiled, finding a lot of people. As Kanaria said, there were a lot of normal civilians and explorers coming to this place.
