Karl rubbed his nose and said to himself, "Is thedy thinking about me now?"


    The pen in his hand froze midway through writing when he recalled how Analise grabbed his horns. His mind started racing, and he didn''te back to his senses embarrassingly until the ink from his pen spilled and a pool of ck collected on


    the paper.


    Everyone knew that Analise had formed a contract with Scott and Fiy by now.


    Karl had also wondered for a long time if he should seek her out and confess his feelings. He couldn''t deny that he quite liked her. What was more, she had touched his horn.


    After careful deliberation, however, he decided against the idea. At least, he couldn''t do it for the time being. Ironhorn Alliance was in a state of disarray now. He needed to focus on hunting down the rest of Sawyer''s cohorts.


    Having gone through the terrible incident, Karl had matured deeply. After all, he was the lord of Ironhorn City. Wayne was old and frail. It was time he grew up and became the pir of Ironhorn Alliance and brought it to a greater height.


    Then, someone knocked on the door.


    "Come in." Karl took the ink-stained paper away.


    "Karl, the security forces returned with news. They have secured the evidence for Sawyer''s collusion with The Reimers, and he has been imprisoned in Interster Prison as we speak.


    "As for his cohorts, the security forces said they''d send some of their men to help us with the hunt. Recently, The Reimers have been more active than usual, and Apex Tournament is around the corner.


    "So, the security forces wanted to recruit some new blood. They also wanted to discuss a n to hunt down The Reimers with you and various alliancemanders."


    Jay opened the door and entered Karl''s office. He handed thetter a file and said, "Lord Hansen said he''s old and wanted to stay out of this case. He''s giving you full authority over all affairs concerning Ironhorn City.


    "In a few days, he will make an announcement regarding your ascension to lordship."


    Karl hummed in response without raising his head. Instead, he held the file in his hand and went through it meticulously.


    "Sawyer has given us a list of his cohorts. Get someone to bring them in." Karl looked at one of the pages with a name list andmitted it to his memory before taking it off and giving it to Jay.


    "Also, I want you to form a team and use the information Sawyer has given us to link up with someone in The Reimers. Find an opportunity to arrest them.


    "If they proved to be stronger, get yourself and your team back. Don''t get tangled up with them."


    Jay nodded, frowned, and continued his report, "Karl, there''s one more thing."


    "What is it?" Karl raised his head.


    "Some strange patients have been sighted within our alliance. They aren''t afflicted with Vexoth venom, but they would go into a frenzy and attack the others.


    "Meanwhile, there are some patients


    who didn''t attack anyone but have other health issues. It seems like they were tormented by an unbearable itch and scratched up their entire body and tore at their skin."


    At this point, Jay pped once. Several males brought two subdued males into Karl''s office. One of the males was writhing and scratching his body, while the other looked dazed, his gaze clouded.


    He pointed at the male with a dull gaze and said, "This one went into a frenzy and indiscriminately attacked people around him. He''s just one of many have just ordered him to be sedated. So, he''s totally out


    of it


    now."


    "Is it a contagious disease?" Karl frowned, rose to his feet, and took a closer look


    at both of the males.


    "N-No," the male scratching himself responded. "It''s the reagent. We used to have


    a specialized medicine for it, but it''s gone now!"


    "What reagent?" Karl started the questioning, his eyes flickering.


    At the same time, the rest of the alliances in Interster Alliance also saw the emergence of frenzied malesunching indiscriminate assaults on hapless victims. A lot of videos surfaced on Cosmoseek as well.  ?wnovel


    "What''s going on? Why did these males suddenly lose control of themselves?"


    "Why couldn''t the females calm them?"


    "From what I heard, it isn''t Vexoth venom. Instead, it''s some sort of infectious disease."
