Bradford’s initial answers did indeed leave Gu Hang unsatisfied, but those last words truly made him reconsider.

They were precisely what he had hoped for.

Initially, Gu Hang had wanted Hodgson to take on the task. That old man, who had lived for a very long time, had even been through the establishment of the Alliance on Rage Owl Star by the first generation of governors. Although not specifically a channel merchant, having lived for so long was wealth in itself.

But now, it seemed that Hodgson had died.

Although he had not yet entered the city to investigate, little Hodgson, that is, Lambert, could no longer wait.

After wrapping up matters in the outer city, he was eager to enter the city. Gu Hang assigned a part of the Marine Corps’ elite to him, letting him go ahead to investigate.

The Hodgson family estate was no longer sealed off, the city’s nobility no longer saw the need to do so.

However, upon returning home smoothly, Lambert didn’t manage to find anything of value.

After capturing Bradford, the man informed Gu Hang: Old Hodgson was indeed dead, killed by Mondok’s hand. During the negotiations, Bradford had been involved; he and Norris had both attempted to object, thinking it too cruel.

But they did not succeed in their objections. At that time, Mondok wielded much more power than them, his main support, of course, being the military.

Of course, in the end, they were persuaded and acquiesced to the plan, allowing for the assassination of old Hodgson to proceed, and they helped with the aftermath and participated in dividing the Hodgson family’s wealth in Revival City.

In this matter, he certainly was guilty, Lambert’s personal bane; but strictly speaking, he wasn’t the mastermind, more an accomplice.

He certainly had to pay the price for his actions. Even if his earlier answers had greatly satisfied Gu Hang, it didn’t mean that Gu Hang would let him go. His life might be spared for the moment, but the status of prisoner could not be removed just yet. Only after he had committed actions to atone for his sins would Gu Hang consider pardoning him.

Murdering the head of the Alliance Council is a grave sin; linked with the previous collusion with the cult that happened to Senator Wohan, along with Mondok’s act of treason outside the city thwarting Gu Hang, the governor… Gu Hang now had a thousand ways to hang the elites of Revival City. When the time comes, it would just be a matter of seeing which hat fits best on their heads; if one didn’t fit, there would be another.

There was no shortage of charges. Investigating cases required evidence, quelling rebellion only needed a list.

Bradford’s first act of atonement was to help Gu Hang perfect this list, and his own name would also be on it.

Working on this task with him would be Lambert, who had not found his grandfather and was about to receive the tragic news.

Under the drive of hatred, Lambert was unlikely to show kindness or mercy to these former neighbors; at the same time, he wasn’t going to allow Bradford, his enemy, to have easy days.

But Gu Hang didn’t bother to care about these matters for now, as he believed Lambert would handle it well.

Tomorrow was the day to enter the city. And on this night before entering the city, Gu Hang finally finished dealing with various issues at hand and at last had the time to review the spoils he had gained from a system-level perspective after the last battle had ended.

[Epic Victory, earned 133 points of Grace]

[Lost 13, killed 1097, captured 7388]

[Governor’s Infantry Regiment: Lost 13, killed 177]

[Sainte-Lys Nun Association (Allied): Lost 0, killed 169]

[Phoenix Battle Group (Allied): Lost 0, killed 757]

…

This battle actually brought him over a hundred points in rewards!

This was even higher than the profits from the previous ambush against the Primordial Wrath Owl Sect, which also happened to eliminate most of the pus-filled creatures in the alien woods.

The key thing was, he actually hadn’t anticipated it.

He even considered that the battle might not be considered a war by the system’s standards, but rather an assassination or a surprise military operation against a special individual.

Moreover, even if it was judged to be a war, the main combat achievements were made by the stellar warriors. The Battle Nuns were a bit lazy at first, but when those cult members emerged, they got serious and went to work.

But no matter which side it was, they weren’t Gu Hang’s subordinates. Would the system award points for their accomplishments?

The reality was that it wouldn’t, but the value was immense.

Although Gu Hang didn’t gain any points for the killings done by the stellar warriors and Battle Nuns, their actions undoubtedly crushed the Alliance Legion. Aside from the fleeing enemies, most of the rest laid down their arms and surrendered, while a few resistors were killed.

And those top-tier fighters surely had no time for taking prisoners. That task was done by Gu Hang’s infantry unit. The infantry’s 13 casualties and 177 kills happened during this time. And the 7,300 prisoners were also credited to the infantry.

Now, that was something he could score points on.

Although the main battle wasn’t won by Gu Hang’s subordinates, leading to a low coefficient for rewards, the low losses and high victory had been rated as an epic victory, which added back some of the coefficient.

Moreover, capturing so many people was valuable not only due to the invincible performance of those mighty men and women, but also because of Gu Hang’s influence as governor and the demoralization caused to the soldiers by Mondok’s execution in midair.

Various aspects and factors combined to make up these 133 points in rewards.

An unexpected joy, so to speak.

Up to now, he had 135 reward points, quite a sum. However, he hadn’t yet thought about how he wanted to use them.

In the “Soldier’s Badge” system, to modify the over 7,000 captured soldiers? But that would have to wait until he could ensure their loyalty and the political commissars he had placed could exert their influence. Otherwise, after the training and enhancement, if they revolted, it would be troublesome.

The “Technology” system was also something to draw from, producing several powerful items was crucial for the development of his territory, but there was no rush for that either.

How to use these reward points was something Gu Hang needed to ponder.

…

Dawn came, and Gu Hang entered the city.

There was no welcome with open arms, no food and drink offered; the inner-city folks had heard the sounds of battle from outside a few days ago in the early morning, and through various rumors they knew the governor was coming, and the city’s four major gates had already been sealed by the governor…

Though it had only been a few days, the city still had ample supplies and there definitely wouldn’t be people starving to death just yet. However, these inner-city people hadn’t really heard of the governor’s benevolence and good governance. On the contrary, they had fresher memories of the previous governor’s terrible deeds.

Regarding Gu Hang’s arrival, they were hesitant, doubtful, and distrustful.

Right now, they were hiding in their homes, with doors and windows shut, only peeking through the cracks at the stellar warriors, Battle Nuns, and the passing army on the main roads.

Gu Hang felt the countless gazes from both sides of the streets, but he didn’t care.

He led his people straight to the Alliance Council Hall at the city center.
