It is revealed that the person in the wheelchair (seen last volume) is Lulu, the partner of Oluga. Lulu Gramaggio Mule was also the leader of the city, inheriting the role from her late father. During the introduction, Van is criticised for attacking the Redler previously. It was explained that although Mule was a republican city, it used water from a river originating in the Empire's territory. The Empire therefore requisitioned that the crops rightfully belonged to them. Although the concept was inane, the Empire had staked troops nearby to enforce their position, forcing Mule's citizens to abandon their crops. Van protested this, as he knew how important crops were to the farmers. As night fell, he set out headed for the Imperial base camp nearby. At the base, Major Schubaltz had just arrived. He was greeted by Lt Kirsche. Schubaltz wanted to greet Lt Col Henkel, the man in charge of the base. However, Kirsche revealed he was not there. He had found some rare local wine and was taking it back to the Empire to present to the Regent. Schubaltz criticised this "brown nosing" as Henkel had abandon his duties at the base. As they talked, another Lieutenant made her appearance. Lt Hana of the Prozen kights greeted Schubaltz in a brash mannor, pointing out that he was being stationed in this base due to his failure to capture the spy previously. Although Kirsche was annoyed at Hanna's manners, Schubaltz was unfazed. Only moments later, Van arrives at the base demanding to speak to their leader. Schublatz, recognising the Zoid (and realising that Van had come alone) agreed to greet him in a formal manner. Van is initially suspicious of the Imperial troop's behaviour, but is quickly put at ease when Schubaltz introduces himself. He begins by thanking Van for stopping Raven, saving Wendeen from needless destruction. As they talk, Schubaltz realises what had happened with the Redler, and agrees to report it as a "accidental emergency crash landing" - absconding the Republican forces of wrongdoing. As Van leaves in the Blade Liger, Zeke begins acting strange, and fuses with Caesar. From the river below, a Death Stinger appears and grabbs the Blade Liger. Van uses his shield to break free, but Lt Hana (the pilot of the Death Stinger) quickly engages her Charged Particle Canon. As she charged her weapon, she revealed she was under instructions from Prozen to start a war - something she was going to do by fighting Van. The mighty Death Stinger fires on Van, waking Fiona telepathically with its ominous presence. Although Van shields himself, Hana boasts that it won't keep him safe for long.
