Conrad's face was full of disdain as he sneered. "Don't bother asking. As long as you're here, you can't do anything anymore. Cuff his hands up!"With those words, two team members stepped forward and secured Sebastian's hands to the crossbar of a steel column. Conrad then picked up a branding iron from the hot coals. Its tip was glowing red, and he approached Sebastian with a malicious grin. "How about trying this one?"Sebastian remained calm, and his gaze fixed on the branding iron. "I wonder what the consequences are for an Alpha Strike Force officer using unauthorized torture?"Conrad laughed derisively. "Unauthorized torture? Who says this is unauthorized? Just now, I arrested you on charges of obstructing an Alpha Strike Force operation, assaulting its members, and treason."Sebastian's cold smile widened. "So, this is how the Alpha Strike Force conducts its investigations."Conrad's expression darkened. "You're already a dead man. But I do like to make deals. Leave Ms. G

Sebastian chuckled, and he fixed his cold gaze on Klaus. "Captain Hindon, I'd like to know if the Alpha Strike Force in Steinberg is run by you?"Klaus sneered sarcastically. "Sebastian, Alpha Strike Force in Steinberg is indeed all under me! Got a problem with that? If you do, just keep it to yourself! Now, you either kneel, or I'll put you on trial according to the Alpha Strike Force law!""A trial?" Sebastian laughed and shook his head, his expression calm. "I'm afraid you don't have the authority for that, Captain Hindon.""Ridiculous! I have the power to do whatever I want here. I don't need any special authority to deal with a nobody like you." Klaus scoffed dismissively.Sebastian smirked slightly. "Is that so? Then let's wait and see."Klaus snorted at Sebastian's words. "From the way you talk, it seems like you have some special connections.""A bit," Sebastian replied calmly.Klaus chuckled and asked, "Really? I'd like to see who your connections are and if they can ge

Meanwhile, in Steinberg's military base, a soldier in uniform quickly ran into the office of the military's commanding officer. Inside, Draco was lounging in a chair with his legs crossed. He was playing a game on his phone. Nearby, the commanding officer of the Steinberg garrison stood respectfully to await orders.The door was then pushed open, and the soldier walked in. He said, "Commander, there's trouble.""What is it?" Draco asked without looking up."Mr. Ballard was taken by the Alpha Strike Force."Draco's expression darkened. He put down his phone and asked coldly, "Why?""We haven't found out yet," the soldier replied.Draco frowned. He stood up and stretched his neck. "Interesting," he sneered. "The Alpha Strike Force must have a death wish to capture someone like him. Let's go take a look.""Yes, sir!"The soldier then followed Draco into a Jeep and headed straight for Steinberg's Alpha Strike Force base.…Sebastian was surrounded by Klaus and other members o

The Draco Token!The member in the lead was sweating bullets in fear. He looked at the Jeep speeding toward them and shouted, "Clear a path! Make way!" Several of the armed Alpha Strike Force members immediately put their guns away and moved aside. The Jeep rushed past them in an instant, sending up a cloud of dust in a whirl of wind.The man in the passenger's seat smiled slightly and put the token away. The member in the lead swiftly stood to attention and saluted! He had seen the man's face at that moment, a face that made his hair stand on end. He broke out into a cold sweat.It was him. Draco, the infamous commander of the Department of Defense in Dramon!What was he doing here? After the Jeep had sped inside, the member in the lead lowered his trembling hand. The remaining Alpha Strike Force members of the force exchanged glances. Vincent, Eugene, Hans, and the others looked shocked. What was going on? Had that Jeep just rushed in? The Alpha Strike Force members

Whitney's expression changed. She looked displeased as she said, "Sebastian, you may not know yet, but you were only able to get out because I contacted Theresa and asked her to make a call. You really should thank her."Sebastian frowned as he looked in Theresa's direction.Theresa had her arms crossed over her chest as she looked haughtily at him. She said disdainfully, "Forget it. I don't need him to thank me. I only intervened for your sake, Whitney."Whitney appeared agitated. She looked meaningfully at Sebastian and said, "Sebastian, hurry up and thank Theresa!"Sebastian laughed and exhaled as he said, "Why should I thank her? I already told you that this has nothing to do with her. I was released because of my connections."Whitney's face twisted. She looked annoyed as she said accusingly, "Sebastian, what are you trying to do? Why is it so difficult for you to say thank you? "You're a man, aren't you? Why can't you be more magnanimous? Your connections? What connections
