As the strongest force of the human race, the Huaxia Military's intelligence system is undoubtedly fast, accurate, and efficient!
There are numerous doubts surrounding Arcade—this is something anyone can see; an earthquake cannot cause the skin all over one's body to rot.
After a simple treatment was conducted on Arcade, the investigation against him began...
With his blonde hair and blue eyes, his gloomy eyes matched with a large hooked nose; at first glance, he certainly didn't look like a good person.
Under the effects of the treatment potion, the sores on Arcade's face were "temporarily" cleared away, followed by steps such as taking photos and blood tests.
The results of the blood tests quickly came out—Arcade's blood contained a large amount of unknown viruses that could not be cured by the treatment potion. There's a high possibility that it was some kind of unknown skill. Moreover, the area where Arcade appeared was alarmingly close to the residence of tier 10—Vincent, whose skill system was based on poison...
It's hard not to raise suspicions.
This further intensified the City Guard's suspicion of Arcade.
The investigation was proceeding rapidly.
The military has records of all the well-known powerhouses in the world, and as the number one on the military's wanted list, Arcade's information was particularly clear and detailed.
In less than an hour, everything about Arcade was already laid out in the guard room of the hospital where he was located.
The order from the higher-ups was simple—strictly guard him; currently, the military cannot dispatch enough high-level powerhouses to supervise Arcade, and they will wait for the war to end before sending someone to take him away!
With Arcade having lost all his power, the security forces in the hospital were already sufficient to make it impossible for him to move an inch!
The Small City Guard that discovered Arcade was also recognized with a significant achievement—they had captured a wanted tier level criminal. For a Small City Guard that only had a tier 3 peak, this not only meant honor but also signified promotion and an increase in power!
Thus, the Small City Guard, who felt like a huge pie had fallen on their heads, couldn't keep their mouths shut.
...
"Have you heard? Xiao Yang got lucky; he caught Arcade."
"Arcade? Which Arcade?"
"Which other Arcade could it be? Tier fifty-two! The lord of death, Arcade!"
"I can't believe it! Isn't he rich now? The bounty on Arcade is quite substantial... What exactly happened?"
"I heard..."
In this world, gossip and rumors spread the fastest—especially during wartime. These low-level professionals responsible for maintaining security in the Inner City of Beijing had nothing to do, and each of them was dreaming of rising to power in an instant.
The Small City Guard known as Xiao Yang was undoubtedly seen as a model of rising to power in the eyes of these people.
With Xiao Yang's own desire to brag, it didn't take long for the story of Xiao Yang outsmarting and capturing the great villain Arcade to spread throughout the entire hospital and reach outside.
Of course, these were not significant matters—Arcade had been confirmed to be incapacitated, and everyone believed one thing about the location of the hospital in the Inner City of the Beijing gathering area!
No one could take a state like Arcade out of the Beijing gathering area.
Thus, Arcade's capture had become a foregone conclusion.
And this news naturally did not escape the eyes of certain interested parties.
...
After being in a daze for a while, Arcade slowly opened his eyes.
Sensing that there were several times more footsteps and breaths at the door, Arcade revealed a hint of helpless bitterness.
His identity had been discovered...
The speed was fast, but it did not surprise Arcade—it was expected given the capabilities of the Beijing gathering area.
And Arcade himself felt no disappointment—being captured by the military, whether it was execution or something else, was certainly better than being kept like a wild dog by Vincent.
