Chapter 256: Failed To Repair The Artifact (Part 1)

Kenny Lin could tell what he was thinking with just one glance.

"Don’t bother thinking about it. She won’t go to the military."

"You already know she won’t agree without asking her?" General Silva wasn’t embarrassed that his thoughts were seen thought by Kenny Lin, he still asking him calmly.

Recalling Amalia’s insistence on not revealing their relationship, Kenny Lin replied, "I just know."

General Silva sensed his sudden change in mood but didn’t continue probing.

He silently deciding to find another opportunity to ask her privately.

He couldn’t bear to let go of such a promising talent without hearing her answer firsthand.

Fabio Zelaya successfully advertised for Amalia, and others, knowing Fabio Zelaya wouldn’t deceive them, also began to approached her with their own artifacts.

"Amalia, my artifact has some issues, could you take a look?"

"Amalia, my Artifact is also broken. Can you please take a look?"

"Amalia, my Artifact..."

"..."

Without Amalia needing to say a word, everyone instinctively formed a line.

Although occasionally someone couldn’t help but ask a question or two.

Amalia welcomed them all; some issues were minor and could be resolved in less than half an hour, while the others were more severe than Fabio Zelaya’s and required at least an hour.

Calculating the time, Amalia realized that half the day was already gone, and it was impossible her to repair everyone artifacts in one day.

Most people would definetely choose to repair the less severe damaged artifacts, but Amalia did the opposite.

The reason is that in case of an attack, these people shouldn’t be fighting without their artifacts.

After hearing her plan, no one objected; unity and mutual assistance were among their principles.

The soldiers who did not have artifacts felt deeply moved.

They had sacrificed a lot, even their lives, but there were still very few people who truly considered their well-being.

While there was joy and excitement here, in another tent, there was gloom and despair.

"Commander Weisman, didn’t you say you could fix it?" Gustavo Herrera asked while holding his destroyed artifact, his lips turning pale, and his voice began to trembling.

Commander Weisman, who had already failed several times before, remained calm, "At that time, I never said it could be repaired hundred percent. Did you think a forty percent success rate was very high? Your artifact is seriously damaged and making it difficult to be repaired. It’s normal if it was failed to be repaired."

"But I came to you to fix it because I wanted it to be repaired, didn’t I?" Gustavo Herrera understood this logic.

"What can I do? I already told you about the risks. A forty percent success rate means a sixty percent failure rate. With such a high failure rate, do you think I’m joking?" Commander Weisman began to feel impatient.

"So, what should I do with my artifact?" Gustavo Herrera felt something was off.

"If it can’t be used, then discard it and get a new one. Arfifacts are consumables anyway," Commander Weisman said indifferently.

But his artifact originally had a chance to be repaired, and now it’s been damaged during the repair.

What should he do with his loss?

Gustavo Herrera’s cheeks flushed red, and unable to speak out anything.

"What’s this? You’re not trying to make me compensate you for your artifact, are you?" Commander Weisman seemed to sense his thoughts and immediately grew displeased.

"Gustavo Herrera, show some respect. Commander Weisman has repaired your artifact numerous times over the years, and he hasn’t charged you much. Overall, you’ve benefited greatly. Now, at the first sign of trouble, you want Commander Weisman to take responsibility. How is that any different from being ungrateful?" Commander Weisman’s subordinate noticed his boss’s dissatisfaction and quickly came to his defense.

"If Commander Weisman repaired our Artifacts for free, we wouldn’t have any objections if something went wrong. But since there’s a fee involved, shouldn’t he take some responsibility if there’s an issue?" Gustavo Herrera’s comrade couldn’t help speaking up for his friend.

Commander Weisman immediately narrowed his eyes in anger, "Goodwill is taken for granted. Since you don’t trust me so much, don’t come to me for Artifact repairs in the future. I can’t afford to serve you."

"Commander Weisman, let’s speak frankly. Over the years, many of our comrades have come to you for Artifact repairs, but..."

Before his friend could finish speaking, Gustavo Herrera stopped him.

"Forget it, let’s go."

Gustavo Herrera didn’t give his friend a chance to finish speaking and he forcibly pulled him out of the tent.

"Why did you drag me out? Let me finish it. To put it nicely, Commander Weisman’s generous help in repairing our Artifacts is a righteous act. But the legion has also provided him with subsidies and specifically to thank him for repairing our Artifacts. The extra funds were also allocated by the general as a special gratitude gesture for his repairs. And now, when your Artifact is damaged during repair, you want to absolve him of any responsibility? When we go shopping, even if we buy something fake, we can still exchange it!"

"All right, let’s not talk about it anymore. It wouldn’t be good if Commander Weisman heard us. What if he refuses to repair your Artifacts in the future?" Gustavo Herrera didn’t want to involve his friend in his own issues.

"If he doesn’t want to repair them, then so be it. I used to think Commander Weisman was a decent person, but now that it involves interests, he’s shown his true colors. We’ve misjudged him!"

His friend exclaimed angrily.

"Or should we tell the general about this?"

"No, do you want to disrupt the harmony within the legion? So many people have benefited from Commander Weisman’s generosity, and he’s also contributed to the legion’s achievements. Bringing this up will only make things difficult for the general," Gustavo Herrera shook his head, not wanting to escalate the situation.

His friend angrily pounded on the nearby tree, causing the leaves to rustle down, "I can’t accept this!"
