Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 2933

Reginald explained the military situation carefully, "The military has multiple secret outposts overseas. One of them is located in the Angotur Harbor in the Outlands. Somehow, the word got out, and the harbor was attacked. It's been three hours since the incident."

He assigned a critical mission, "Andrew, Franz, this is an internal Holtrien matter, so only you two can handle it. Your objective is simple: rescue the remaining Holtrien soldiers and retrieve the strategic resources at the port."

Franz did not hesitate for a moment, responding immediately, "I'll go. It's my military duty!"

Reginald nodded. "I can't leave. The negotiations at Storm City are ongoing. If I'm absent too long, the enemy will suspect I've gone to Angotur Harbor. That would only draw more powerful fighters to the location, increasing potential casualties."

Andrew stepped up. "Count me in. I'll go with Mr. Hearst, and we'll watch each other's backs."

Franz seemed slightly embarrassed, asking, "Andrew, are you still willing to serve the national military?"

Andrew responded flatly, "I'm not fond of Philip, and I've long lost faith in the Holtrien military. But the Holtrien soldiers at Angotur Harbor and I are loyal to our country. When you're in a foreign land, you help where you can."

Franz was impressed, muttering, "The way you put it makes me realize how incompetent the leadership back home truly is. They had a fine blade but chose to dull it themselves. I really do not know what those decision makers were thinking."

Andrew shrugged. "I don't care what they think. I'll be the decision-maker in the future."

His statement made Franz's expression shift, sensing something significant in those words.

Andrew nodded confidently. "Mr. Hearst, leave it to me."

The vehicle set off, with an unusual atmosphere between just Andrew and Nyx.

Andrew, being wise, remained silent throughout the journey, knowing Nyx's unpredictable temperament.

Suddenly, Nyx asked, curled up in the passenger seat, "Andrew, what is Holtrien like? Is it beautiful?"

Andrew laughed, "You've asked the right person. Holtrien was very beautiful, vast, and rich in resources, and especially famous for its food. Compared to foreign bland food and random dishes, Holtrien is basically a food lover's paradise."
