Bell
turned,
then,
and
frowned
blackly.
"I
hadn't
thought
of
it,"
he
said
grimly,
"but
I
put
some
hand
grenades
in
the
locker,
there."
"You
damned
fool!"
said
Jamison
angrily.
"Stop
being
bloodthirsty
and
use
your
head!
You
haven't
even
asked
what
I've
done!
I've
done
something,
anyhow.
That
bundle
I
chucked
in
the
bow
has
a
couple
of
sheepmen's
outfits
in
it.
Lots
of
sheep
raised
around
here.
We'll
put
'em
on
before
we
land.
And
like
a
good
general,
I
arranged
a
method
of
retreat
before
we
left
B.
A.
There'll
be
a
naval
vessel
here
in
two
or
three
days.
She's
carrying
a
party
of
Government
scientists.
She'll
anchor
in
Punta
Arenas
harbor
and
announce
a
case
of
some
infectious
disease
on
board.
No
shore
leave,
you
see,
and
nobody
from
shore
permitted
on
board
her.
And
she
has
one
or
two
damned
good
analytical
chemists
with
a
damned
good
laboratory
on
board
her,
too.
It's
a
long
gamble,
but
if
we
can
get
hold
of
some
of
The
Master's
poison....
Do
you
see?"
"Yes,"
said
Bell
heavily.
"I
see.
But
you
haven't
been
through
what
I've
been
through.
What
I've
done,
fighting
that
devil,
has
caused
men
to
be
deserted
after
being
enslaved.
There's
one
place,
Cuyaba...."
His
face
twitched.
That
place
was
in
his
dreams,
now.
That
place
and
others
where
human
beings
had
watched
their
bodies
go
mad,
and
had
been
carried
about
screaming
with
horror
at
the
crimes
those
bodies
committed....
"I'm
going
to
kill
The
Master,"
he
rasped.
"That's
all."
