Lord Chapter 105
Chapter 105 The Military Unit Is Mobilized
Willow, Miranda, and Zoey did not expect to get arrested. The news of them being taken away by the inspectors from the Inspector General’s office soon spread across Southlake City,
Miranda thought no one would dare to go against Caspian. After all, he had proven himself to be quite powerful.
Alas, today’s incident proved her assumption wrong.
The head of the Inspector General’s office in Southlake City had personally participated in Caspian’s arrest. It was going to be hard for Caspian to free himself this time.
Unfortunately for her, she had only been at the hospital for a few minutes, but she was also swept up in the storm along with the others.
Meanwhile, Caspian looked unperturbed. He knew full well the Inspector General’s office could not do anything to him.
Just then, Carmen rushed over after hearing the news.
When she saw her hero, Caspian, being led off in handcuffs, she was thunderstruck and could not believe her eyes.
Earlier, Caspian had told her that if the Inspector General’s office took him into custody, he wanted her to call Sylvia.
What did Caspian do? How did he know he was going to be arrested?
“What are you doing?
why are you arro
Caspian?” Carmen asked in confusion.
She did not understand why a righteous hero like Caspian would get apprehended.
“Get the hell out of the way! This has nothing to do with you! Are you trying to get arrested as well?” Ezekiel fumed in annoyance when he saw a doctor coming forward to stop them.
Carmen saw the armed inspectors. She dared not get in their way, so she quickly stepped aside.
She had never seen such a scene before.
Capsian met Carmen’s gaze, and she instantly got the hint.
But as the inspectors were still around, she dared not call Sylvia right away. She would wait until they left.
Soon, Caspian and the women were taken away.
Carmen watched as they were hauled into the inspectors‘ vehicles.
A few minutes after their arrest, Joey arrived at the hospital.
She came to check on Caspian.
As he did save her, it was only right for her to visit him.

However, when she entered the hospital, she heard everyone discussing Caspian and the women’s arrest. They had been taken away by Ezekiel, the head of the Inspector General’s
office.
Joey’s expression darkened. She had no idea there was an ongoing operation. Furthermore, why were Willow, Miranda, and Zoey taken away too?
When Joey saw Carmen, who was making a call, she immediately asked, “What’s going on, Carmen? What happened just now?”
After turning around, Carmen saw Joey and swiftly said, “Inspector Ezekiel apprehended. Caspian and Willow, as well as Miranda Barton, the vice president of Southlake Corporation.”
“What? He took Willow and Miranda as well?” Joey was confused. She could not figure out what Ezekiel was up to.
It was understandable if they had taken Caspian away. After all, he did kill a lot of people recently, so it made sense if they wanted to investigate him.
Yet, Willow and the other women were innocent people. Why were they taken into custody as well?
“I don’t know why either!” Carmen said.
Joey knew she could not get any useful information from Carmen.
Still, she had a feeling things would be quite challenging to deal with.
She rushed back to the Inspector General’s office to find out what was happening.
Once Joey left, Carmen remembered what Caspian had told her. She found a quiet spot and called Sylvia.
“Hello?” Sylvia answered absent–mindedly after seeing it was a call from an unfamiliar number.
“Hi, my name is Carmen Beth. Is this Sylvia Frost speaking?” Carmen kept her voice low and asked.
“That’s me. What’s this about?” Sylvia asked.
“Caspian told me to call you,” Carmen said.
Upon hearing that, Sylvia instantly grew alert. She asked solemnly, “Why did he ask me to call

“The men from the Inspector General’s office have taken Caspian away!” Carmen reported.
“What? Are you sure?” Sylvia asked in disbelief.
She had been waiting for this moment for quite some time now.
“I am. I saw it with my own eyes. Inspector Ezekiel personally took Caspian away. He also took Willow, Zoey, and Miranda, the vice president of Southlake Corporation,” Carmen informed Sylvia.
“Got it. Don’t worry. I’ll save them,” Sylvia said. She terminated the call without waiting for Carmen’s response.
Then, she called Julian, the chief of staff of the army at South Aridlands, and instructed him to lead the military unit into Southlake City.
Over at the base camp outside Southlake City, Julian received the news that Caspian had been arrested by the Inspector General’s office. He immediately gathered the soldiers.
“Men! I have received the latest update from General Frost. Lord Caspian, the Diatoranian God of War that we honor and respect, has been arrested by the Inspector General’s office. What do you think we should do?” Julian asked on purpose.
He did so to ignite the soldiers‘ fighting spirit!
“Charge into Southlake City and rescue Lord Caspian!”
“Charge into Southlake City and rescue Lord Caspian!”
“Charge into Southlake City and rescue Lord Caspian!”
The military unit that numbered into the thousands chanted in a show of strength.
“Excellent! Follow me, comrades! We’re marching into Southlake City and rescuing Lord Caspian!” Julian waved his hand and gave the order.
In an instant, a sea of tanks and soldiers rushed toward Southlake City…
When the grand procession of armored vehicles appeared on the streets of Southlake City, the other cars on the road wisely gave way.
Even though they did not know what such an imposing military unit was doing in Southlake City, they knew the city was in for a tumultuous night.
Ezekiel was personally directing the operation to arrest and kill Caspian. Only his closest

General’s office, did not hear a word about it.
It had not been a part of the plan to capture Willow, Miranda, and Zoey. They just so happened to be there at the hospital. But since they were close to Caspian, for the sake of maintaining
secrecy of the operation, Ezekiel had to take them along as well.
the
Right now, Caspian and the women were riding in the car, but they were not being taken to the Inspector General’s office. Instead, the car was headed toward the outskirts of Southlake City -to the Canyon of Death.
Caspian looked out the window. When he saw that they were getting farther away from the city center, he got a bad feeling.
The car was filled with inspectors. He could not inform Sylvia of his location.
Willow and the other women picked up on the strangeness of the situation as well. They did. not know where the inspectors were taking them.
They panicked even further when they saw the vehicle heading down a new path.
40 minutes later, they arrived at the Cliff of Death.
They were about 20 miles away from Southlake City. It was a remote area.
Few people ventured to this area. For one, the roads in this area were rugged and hard to pass. Furthermore, it was far from the rest of civilization. Few dared to come over.
That was precisely why Ezekiel brought Caspian and the women to this place.
Once the car stopped, Caspian, Willow, Miranda, and Zoey were all shoved out.
Upon seeing that Caspian was in handcuffs, a riotous cheer rang out across the Cliff of Death.
The Cliff of Death was brightly lit with numerous bonfires all around. Many people were gathered around the bonfires. It looked like the scene of a lively event.
