After Cyril left, Chers listened to the recording and took a deep breath.
"Hopefully we can keep the news under wraps, otherwise we'll be in big trouble," Chers muttered to himself, almost in prayer.
But his expectations were quickly dashed.
Half an hour later, news came from the other towns.
A recording cube appeared in the square of Myron City, playing information about Chels and Melly's secret rendezvous.
A recording cube appeared in the park in Warren, playing information about Chers and Meryl's tryst.
There's also William City, Mira Town, Kyle Town, Norma City...
As news from town after town came in, Chers couldn't hold back any longer.
He had initially tried to keep the news within Fay Town and find a way to prevent it from leaking out, but how could he keep it under control once people in other towns also found out?
Especially when news of this also emerged in towns controlled by the Kingdom of Bagus, Chers knew he was doomed.
He could still influence the towns controlled by the Akti Kingdom to some extent, but he obviously couldn't influence the towns controlled by the Bagos Kingdom. This news would undoubtedly be passed on to Baird.
The thought that Baird would know all the tricks he and Mary played and all the things they said in the recording made Chers shrink back.
He could almost picture Baird confronting him with a furious look on his face, which was no easy task.
It's time to run away.
Realizing the situation was hopeless, Chers quickly packed his things, handed over the matter of Fay Town to his subordinates, and left Fay Town.
He appeared in Fay Town because the kingdom wanted him to investigate Rita's death, which might be related to Star River Territory. As the town closest to Star River Territory, Fay Town was a natural place for him to come and make preparations.
But now that his affair with Melie has been exposed, Chers obviously can no longer care about Rita's death. If he doesn't handle his own affairs well, he will face endless trouble. How can he care about others?
Therefore, Chers had no choice but to retreat.
'Damn it, how did they find out about my affair with Mary? Don't let me find out who you are!'
Chers gritted his teeth and left Fay Town with resentment in his eyes.
He was very reluctant to leave this place, not only because of the mission, but also because of Merry.
But Chers also knew that now that things had been exposed, he and Mary could no longer meet secretly, and he could no longer get satisfaction from Mary.
As for what trouble Melie would face after this matter was exposed, Chers didn't care.
He was attracted to Meryl's identity and appearance, not to her as a person. Since there was no possibility of a future together, he no longer needed to care about Meryl.
==========
Galaxy Territory, in the valley.
Heavy snow fell here, landing on the campsites and covering them with a thick layer of white snow.
A cold wind, carrying snowflakes, drifted through the valley and landed on Baird's green head.
Baird was a very burly man with bulging muscles that exuded a sense of oppression, which was amplified when he wore armor.
He didn't like wearing a helmet when not in combat, letting his green hair hang in the air, blown by the cold wind.
"Star River Territory, humph!"
Baird gazed into the distance, looking at the vast expanse of heaven and earth.
He came here because the kingdom's general, Buck, had died here. The death of a high-ranking apostle was no small matter for the Kingdom of Bagus, so even the commander-in-chief, Baird, had to come in person.
He knew the murderer must be from the Star River Territory, but he couldn't just rush in because he didn't know who in the Star River Territory had killed Buck, and he felt that if he acted rashly, he might encounter danger.
So what Baird had to do was blockade Star River Territory, preventing anyone from entering or leaving, and then, when spring arrived, send his army to invade.
Even a high-ranking apostle will inevitably face situations where he is powerless against a massive army.
"We're just waiting for spring."
Baird looked at the snow-covered valley and murmured to himself.
He turned around, intending to leave his position, but then seemed to sense something and turned back, looking towards a direction in the valley, where he saw someone riding a horse rapidly approaching in the wind and snow.
They're scouts!
Baird didn't care about this matter. Even if the scouts found any information, they would hand it over to the person in charge. There was no need for him, the commander, to meet with them personally.
After walking around the camp, Baird went into a room and poured himself a cup of hot tea.
But before he could even take a sip of hot tea, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
As Baird's voice rang out, a man walked in.
The visitor was the head of the reconnaissance team. Upon seeing him, Baird couldn't help but think of the scouts who had just returned.
"Commander, urgent intelligence has arrived."
The head of the reconnaissance team was a thin man whose frail body stood in stark contrast to the burly Baird.
Baird sat in his chair and began slowly, "Speak."
He picked up his teacup, waiting for the head of the investigation team to speak, but the other party hesitated, looking as if he didn't know how to answer.
Baird, who was about to drink his tea, noticed the other person's hesitation, put down his teacup and said in a deep voice, "Putt, just say what you have to say, don't beat around the bush."
"Yes, Commander." Seeing that Baird had said so, Put gritted his teeth and reported, "It is like this: this morning, recording blocks appeared in many towns under our control, as well as in many towns under the control of the Akti Kingdom, and played out surprising content. Now this matter has spread like wildfire in many towns."
"Surprising content? What is it?" Baird asked, picking up his teacup again and taking a leisurely sip.
Seeing Baird's composed demeanor, Putt's expression became somewhat awkward as he said, "This matter concerns the Commander-in-Chief."
"What does this have to do with me?" Baird put down his teacup again, looking puzzled.
"The recording block is right here." Putt took out a recording block and placed it on the table next to him.
Seeing Put's strange expression, Baird had a feeling that things might be a little bad, so he immediately took the recording cube, turned it, and opened it.
"Merry, I'm coming in!"
A somewhat familiar voice came from the recording box.
Baird was startled when he heard the voice.
He was naturally familiar with the name Mei Li, because that was his wife's name. Why was someone calling his wife's name? And why did the voice sound so familiar?
As Baird looked puzzled, the sound from the recording box continued to play.
"Come in, Chers, I can't wait!"
Upon hearing the second sentence, Baird's brow furrowed immediately.
That's Mary's voice.
Meili is his wife, and he naturally knows her voice very well, but what does it mean for his wife to say such things to another man?
And Chers... seems to be a general in the Kingdom of Akti?
Baird already had a bad feeling.
"Merry, you're even more eager than I am! Were you like this when you were facing Baird?"
“I have no interest in that guy. Only you, Chers, only you can make my heart flutter.”
"Such praise is an honor for me."
"Then come in quickly."
"I am coming."
Listening to the conversation in the recording box, and the filthy sounds that followed, Baird froze on the spot, an incredulous look on his face.
The recording had already gone this far, how could Baird not know what had happened?
His wife was having an affair with another man behind his back, doing things that should only happen between them.
Why is this happening?
The sounds emanating from the recording cube were like needles pricking Baird, making him feel extremely uncomfortable all over.
His chest began to rise and fall noticeably, his breathing became rapid, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
This news was like a bolt from the blue for him, igniting a fire of rage within him that seemed poised to consume everything around him.
Putt, who was standing next to him, instinctively took a few steps back.
Even though Baird didn't say anything, he could sense just how angry Baird was in his silence, so much so that he didn't dare to get too close to Baird.
Which man could remain calm after being cheated on?
Thinking of this, Putt subconsciously glanced at Baird's green hair, then quickly looked away.
Chapter 161 I'm furious, I'm really furious
"Putt, you're saying this recording has already spread to many towns?" Baird said, trying his best to suppress his anger.
“Yes, Commander, there are even multiple recording blocks scattered in different locations in many towns. We have found a total of several hundred recording blocks in the towns controlled by our two kingdoms,” Put replied cautiously.
Upon hearing Put's words, Baird felt a wave of dizziness.
His wife's infidelity dealt him a heavy blow, and the news even spread to many towns, making countless people aware of it. This left Baird so angry that he didn't know what to say.
When a person is extremely angry, they often don't even know why they are angry anymore; Baird was like that.
He felt as if his mind was completely empty, and he had a feeling that all his strength had been drained, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Wow, Chels, you're amazing!"
"Is he even better than Baird?"
"That's natural. Compared to you, Baird is like a toothpick."
“My Mary, you were so miserable in the past, having to endure toothpicks like Baird. Don’t worry, Baird couldn’t satisfy you, but I will definitely satisfy you.”
The sound from the recording cube reached Baird's ears again.
Just hearing these sounds, Baird could imagine what his wife was doing with another man, what kind of expression she was making, and those imagined scenes drove him almost mad.
"Merry...Chels...Merry...Chels!"
Baird's voice trembled as he kept repeating the two names, his eyes turning bloodshot.
