After receiving the supplies and personnel from this support team, the camp immediately regained much of its vitality, which greatly relaxed the previously anxious wizards. The supporting collaborators also quickly got to work; with their addition, the pressure on various posts was significantly reduced.
That evening, Unicorn even prepared a lavish dinner for the wizards in the camp using fresh ingredients, which greatly boosted their morale. Seeing the situation gradually stabilize, the stone that had been weighing on Fwooper's heart finally dropped.
At this moment, Unicorn slowly approached her and whispered, "Teacher, I'll take charge of tonight's guard duty. I heard from Jobberknoll that you've been personally standing guard for the camp these past two days, which is very detrimental to your injury recovery. You should take this opportunity to get some good rest tonight."
"Thank you, Aseria. You arrived just in time." When no one else was around, Fwooper habitually called her by her name. "By the way, your sister performed very well in the recent academy test, and she also joined a magical creature study club. It seems she's made quite a few friends."
"Is that so...?" Hearing Fwooper mention her young sister, Aseria couldn't help but frown. The daily life the other party spoke of was built upon her young sister's suffering. And the culprit behind all of this was the woman in front of her. Aseria looked at the other party's seemingly caring words, feeling a surge of disgust in her heart.
Fwooper also sensed that Aseria's state was somewhat strange at this time and couldn't help but ask with concern, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
"No... nothing." Aseria shook her head decisively. "It's just that I'm still not quite used to the weather in Northern Europe. You should also rest early. The sooner you recover, the sooner we can set off."
"Hmm, then I'll trouble you tonight." Perhaps because she had been too tense for too long, Fwooper also felt a hint of drowsiness at this moment. After greeting Aseria, she returned to her travel tent to rest. Aseria watched Fwooper slowly walk away, a cold smile appearing on her face.
In this far northern region, it is dark for most of the time, and wizards generally arrange their schedules according to habit. Not long after, all the wizards fell asleep, and the camp became very quiet. Only Aseria and four wizards remained nearby, performing their routine guard duty.
These four wizards guarded the four directions of the camp, warming their hands with their breath while observing the surroundings. Aseria, as a mobile guard, patrolled randomly around the area. After most of the wizards had rested for over an hour, Aseria, while patrolling, arrived at a guard post in the camp and slowly approached the wizard on night watch from behind. At this time, this wizard seemed to be half-asleep due to the late hour and didn't notice anyone approaching from behind.
Just then, Aseria, who had come up behind the wizard, pulled out her wand and suddenly tapped the back of the other party's neck. The guard wizard then felt his vision go dark and fell straight to the ground. Aseria, with great skill, gently supported him and then gently lowered him to the ground, preventing any sound from being made when he fell.
After Aseria completed this operation, several figures slowly appeared from the dense forest in front of her. They were Alan, Shalltear, and Hog.
"How is it? Are you sure everyone in the camp is asleep?" Alan glanced at the fallen wizard beside him, a low voice coming from his mouth.
"Don't worry, master. I put a light sedative in their dinner. After consuming it, their sleep quality tonight will be very good." Aseria was no longer bothering to pretend at this point and directly took off the mask from her face.
"That's good. Next, we'll proceed as planned. Hog, you go keep an eye on those magical creatures. Shalltear, Aseria, and I will deal with the other three guard wizards separately." Today's operation was much simpler than the raid on the breeding park, so he was also much more relaxed.
"Yes, master!"
"No problem!"
"Leave it to me!"
The other three responded in unison and then quickly sprang into action.
Alan's plan from the very beginning was to use the Pure Land Society to strike Fwooper's transport team initially, and then, as Thunderbird, turn the tide, thereby elevating his status indefinitely. However, it was certainly impossible to let so many magical creatures fall into the club's hands, but he also couldn't let Thunderbird be associated with the loss of this batch of magical creatures later on. So he planned a second raid on the transport team. Even if they hadn't chosen to camp there, Alan was prepared to intercept Fwooper and her group after he had shown his face at the Silver Spears headquarters as Thunderbird.
However, things progressed even more smoothly than Alan had imagined. Because the Pure Land Society's people were so capable, they almost crippled the transport team's wizards, forcing them to rest on the spot. At the same time, Alan also didn't expect the club to be so cooperative, actually sending Unicorn as support personnel. This gave him an inside man. Originally, he had planned to put in some effort, either directly attacking or backstabbing them as Thunderbird.
Therefore, the entire operation proceeded very smoothly. In a short while, they had taken down all the sentries and then began to systematically clear out the wizards who had fallen asleep. Alan had no intention of throwing these guys into prison like he did with those civilian wizards. These wizards were either club collaborators, Death Eaters, or werewolves; there was no need to show them any mercy.
Soon, the three of them used Stupefy to knock out all the wizards, confiscated all their wands, and packed them all into Alan's briefcase. Next, they had to transfer the magical creatures. Fortunately, the number of animals this time was not as many as in the breeding park, and Alan's briefcase could accommodate all of them, so the transfer was not as strenuous. At the same time, thanks to Hog, who was proficient in beast speech, the magical creatures were also very cooperative after communication.
After several hours of work, they had gathered all the wizards and magical creatures, and even all the supplies and equipment in the camp were cleared out. In a short while, the once sizable club camp was dismantled, leaving only a few extinguished campfires proving that someone had once stayed there.
After completing all this, everyone reunited inside Alan's briefcase, and in front of them were the iron cages used to imprison those wizards.
