Chapter 452 Stepping Forward on the Medals
“Thud!”
The blue medal fell to the ground.
All the Watchmen were stunned. They looked at the package in Gerald’s hand, which was full of medals. Like Gerald, they were
members of Night Watch, and they all knew what these medals. meant.
Obtaining a medal of merit was very difficult, even if it was a third–class merit medal!
However, in addition to that third–class medal, there were many medals inside Gerald’s package, all of which were of higher
rank.
Among them, there were first–class merit medals, special merit medals, and the Medal of Star Glory that Gerald was awarded!
Until then, they realized that the young man standing in front of them was also a hero of Night Watch.
He had lost countless blood for Night Watch. He had used Death Storm and placed himself in a dangerous situation several
times.
He was a hero of Night Watch!
April frowned deeply. Gerald was close to the gate. He took out the second medal.
“This medal was awarded to me in Asia. In that battle, I led the team to kill three Red Card Assassins, got the second–class
merit citation, and won the purple second–class merit medal!”
“Thud!”
After saying that, Gerald threw the medal on the ground.
Then he walked to April’s side.
April was holding a long saber in her hand. She frowned because none of the men with sabers did anything at this moment.
April let out a bitter laugh.
She then placed the saber on the ground and made way for Gerald.
Immediately after that, Gerald led his team through the gate and officially stepped into the base of the United Army.
There were many monitors inside a tall building in the headquarters of the United Army.
And there were many people standing in front of the monitors, including Leonardo, a few managing directors, and Billy!
The director of European Night Watch frowned and said, “What is April doing? Why did she let him in? Carl, I know the South
Australian Night Watch has always had a good relationship with the American Night Watch. But what are you guys doing? Are
you trying to fawn on the American Watchmen now?”
Hearing this, a strong man raised his eyebrows. He looked up at the director of European Night Watch and said, “You’d better
watch your mouth. Do you want to fight?”
Billy was lying on a sofa and watching the show. Suddenly, he frowned.
“What’s wrong with these people?” The others also realized that something was wrong. Because the first level of alarm was
turned on, all the Watchmen in the headquarters of the United Army had gone out. There were nearly 2,000 Watchmen here, and
there were many Watchmen in the streets and on the roofs of the buildings.
Apart from the American Watchmen, everyone else had gone out.
But at this moment, no one made a move against Gerald.
Wherever Gerald passed, the Watchmen all put down their sabers or put their sabers into the sheaths.
“He is...” When Billy saw Gerald’s actions, his expression suddenly changed, and he sat up violently from his seat.
“It seems that he is really sad,” the old man, beside Billy, sighed slightly.
“It’s all your fault! Fuck!” Billy cursed.
At this moment, there were many people in this place where the surveillance videos could be seen, but they fell into a short
silence.
Only the director of European Night Watch said loudly, “Tell them to take action. If it goes on like this, Gerald and his team may
come directly towards us.”
Leonardo frowned. He did not want to say anything, but when he thought of what Perrin said before, he gritted his teeth, pressed
a button, and then said into the microphone, “Attention to everyone, surround Gerald and kill him!”
Leonardo’s voice echoed throughout the town.
When Gerald heard it, the look in his eyes grew colder.
He took out a purple medal and muttered, “This medal was obtained in the North. I was 20 years old that year...
“This medal was also obtained in the North when I was 20 years old...”
Every time Gerald took out a medal, he described the origin of the medal.
His merit medals made almost all the Watchmen’s throats a little dry.
On the top of a mountain fat away, Valery was looking through the binoculars, and so was Claude. Both of their gazes were
somewhat heavy.
To pave the way with medals!
Gerald was paving the way for himself to move forward with all the medals he had won in Night
Watch!
When he finished this journey, he would leave all his glory behind. It meant that Gerald seemed to intend to withdraw from Night
Watch.
“He is heartbroken!” Valery sighed.
“If they had done this to me, I would have been sad too!” Claude said. “Our partner was killed by Perrin, but instead of admitting
his guilt, Perrin took Gerald to the United Army’s court. Then, without evidence, the United Army voted to expel Gerald from
Night Watch. Blaine knew the truth, but he didn’t try his best to defend Gerald!”
Valery frowned and said, “We all know what Blaine thinks of Gerald. He didn’t help Gerald from being expelled, probably
because he had something to fear. If Blaine had tried his best at that time, it might have confirmed Perrin’s claim that American
Night Watch wanted to be dominant. That’s not what Blaine wants to see.”
Claude curled his lips and said, “I didn’t expect that these people would be so afraid of such fabricated words. In this case, there
is no need for us to fight together with them anymore. It’s better for us to leave. In the future, we can find a place and gather all
our family members together. Although we can’t protect other people, it’s no problem to protect our relatives and friends. And we
have a lot of industries now. That’s enough for us to live on.”
Hearing what Claude said, Valery frowned slightly and didn’t say anything else!
At the same time, in a tall building, Billy looked at Leonardo intently. He was angry at first, and
then he showed a relieved smile. He spread his hands and said with a slight smile, “You want to know what Gerald is doing,
right? He is paving the way with medals. Look at the medals in his package. Those are the ones he has obtained in Night Watch
over the past six years. Since he became Watchman No. O in the third year after joining Night Watch, he has participated in
almost all large–scale missions around the world. But you voted to expel him and issued the Blood Order to him. The medals he
has won are something you will never have in your lifetime!”
Billy gritted his teeth and continued, “Now, Gerald is paving the way with medals, and he will leave all his glory behind. It means
he has been completely disappointed in you. And it also means he may leave Night Watch from today on!”
The building fell into silence once again!
After a moment, Leonardo gritted his teeth and said, “Gerald killed the family members of a hero. He deserves to die. The merit
cannot offset the demerit!”
After that, Leonardo spoke into the microphone again, “What are you doing? I now order all the Watchmen in the headquarters to
surround Gerald and kill him! Hurry up!”
However, no one moved!
Everyone was compassionate. Seeing that Gerald placed the medals one by one on the ground and led his team to step forward
on the medals, all the people were silent.
They slowly lowered their raised sabers. Some of those who had worked with Gerald bowed their heads, and there were tears in
their eyes.
In such a case, Gerald passed through the long road, and the medals kept falling!
Blue, purple, gold...
Every time Gerald walked a distance, a medal lay on the ground, shining brightly!
The medals, showing the honor of Watchmen, were spread all the way at this time. It was touching.
Unknowingly, Gerald had approached that tall building. At this moment, the package was gone, and there were only two medals
left in his hand. He froze for a moment and then pinned the medals on his chest!
One of the two medals was so bright that it shone like the stars in the sky!
It was the Medal of Star Glory, representing the highest honor of the Watchmen.
Since the founding of Night Watch, only three people had been awarded this medal!
The first one was won by Perrin!
The second one was won by Blaine!
And the third one was won by Gerald.
