At this moment, the man asked respectfully, “British Lord, how credible do you think the words Vera left behind are?”The British Lord was silent for a moment and said coldly, “Her character is similar to her father’s character. Although she is resourceful and can even be said to be wise, she rarely engages in any conspiracy, so I believe the sentence that she left behind.”With that said, the British Lord added, “Vera must also know very well that it’d be pointless for her to lie. Even if I see this sentence and even if I believe that she is not lying, I will not give up pursuing her before I find the ring. Even if she does not have the ring on her, she must know the whereabouts of the ring, so the reason why she wrote this sentence is not to confuse me. Instead, it’s just to provoke me!”The man could not help but say, “British Lord, if Vera is not lying, could this mean that she has abandoned the ring somewhere in Northern Europe?”The British Lord said, “Although the ring is of
He then raised his head and asked respectfully, “British Lord, you know Vera best, so I wonder if you have any clues or suggestions that you can give me regarding her whereabouts, then?”The British Lord said indifferently, “I know her and her father very well, but they have both done things that I never expected them to do. Perhaps my understanding of them is too solidified that I’ve fallen into a state of making one mistake after another. So, it’d be better if you don’t ask me for advice, Mr. Chardon. Get things done according to your own intuition. Perhaps that might work wonders.”“Okay!” Mr. Chardon nodded heavily and said, “I understand, British Lord!”The British Lord asked curiously, “Mr. Chardon, I wonder if you have any plan in mind?”Mr. Chardon cupped his hands together and said, “British Lord, I plan to go to Oskia to take a look!”The British Lord was rather surprised and asked, “Do you think that Vera will return to Oskia?”Mr. Chardon smiled and said, “I don’t thi
So, if she really wanted to see, communicate, and get along with Charlie normally, her only opportunity to do so was when Charlie came to Northern Europe to look for her.However, based on Charlie’s style of action, he definitely would not come to Northern Europe to meet her unless it was necessary.As Helena thought of this, she felt sad and reluctant. So, she looked at Charlie, sobbed softly, and said, “Mr. Wade, you must come to Northern Europe again if you have time. Even if you can’t come, don’t forget me...”When Charlie saw that her tears were falling uncontrollably, he could not help but feel a little distressed as he recalled what he had discovered in her bedroom this morning. However, although there were no outsiders here, it was still crowded with people. Not only were Albert and Isaac present, but the crew and royal guards were also there.Therefore, Charlie could only comfort her, “Helena, I will definitely come again if there’s a chance. You have to take care of you
Two hours later, the Concorde airliner that Charlie was on landed in Damascus, the capital of Syria.Porter and several core members of Ten Thousand Armies were already waiting at the airport. When Charlie got off the plane, Porter rushed forward and said respectfully, “Mr. Wade, I thought that you would return to the United States directly from Northern Europe. I didn’t expect that you would make a special detour to Syria, so our preparations are a little hasty. If I’d known that you’d be coming over, I would have definitely made the arrangements in advance.”Charlie said with a smile, “There is still deadly poison in the bodies of the seven men that you brought back with you. These seven men will die within a few days if I do not remove the poison from their bodies.” Charlie then asked him, “Have those seven people settled down?”“They have already settled down.” Porter said, “I left Zayne behind with a few five-star War Generals to guard those men in order to avoid any accident
The five helicopters took off almost simultaneously and flew toward Ten Thousand Armies’ base.After an hour’s flight, the helicopter flew over the base. From the air, it could be seen that Ten Thousand Armies’ base was a huge construction site with buildings under construction and many transportation vehicles everywhere. There was an airstrip that had already taken shape on the east side of the base.Charlie could not help but feel a sense of relief when he saw that the construction of the entire base was in full swing.Ten Thousand Armies was currently his strongest striking force aside from himself, and it played a significant role in every step that he would take in the future, especially in his battle against the mysterious organization.Therefore, he hoped that Ten Thousand Armies’ strength would continue to grow and improve, and his goal for the first stage of the development of Ten Thousand Armies’ strength was to be able to counteract all the dead soldiers belonging to
Charlie nodded. “How many workers are working in the mine now?”Porter said, “We are speeding up the progress regardless of cost, so if we count all types of work in the mine, there are currently about five to six hundred people working in the mine.”Charlie asked again, “By the way, what are those Sicilian mafias that were brought here from Canada doing now?”Porter smiled and said, “The mafia from Sicily are all organized into the excavation team, and they specialize in the construction of underground fortifications. Our normal construction team works in three shifts a day and works eight hours a day. However, for these mafias, it’s a twelve-hour working day with two shifts a day. We do not pay attention to labor laws for them as long as we don’t tire them to death. After all, they are a bunch of b*stards who lived a life full of crimes.”Charlie could not help but laugh and say, “There are more than eight hundred Sicilian elites. They commit murder, arson, and bully all the time
Hamed’s gratitude to Charlie had long been endless like the flooding of a river that was out of control.If it was not for Charlie, both Ten Thousand Armies and the Syrian government would have already taken him down.Not to mention, Charlie had also cured his leg, which had been crippled for decades, and given him a lot of funds to strengthen his defense. Now, with Ten Thousand Armies’ mediation, Hamed also had a good opportunity for peaceful development. However, what he did not expect was that even so, Charlie still treated him well and was still very generous toward him without asking for anything.With the current specifications of Ten Thousand Armies’ underground fortifications, even if it was displayed on a small scale in his own base, it was still difficult to implement without a cost of hundreds of millions of US dollars. For Hamed, this was something that he could not even think about.Charlie had even agreed to help him build the underground fortification for free
“Okay, Mr. Wade!” Porter brought Charlie to a windowless conference room immediately and instructed someone to invite Merlin and 547 over first.Merlin did not expect Charlie to come to Syria and asked in surprise, “Young Master Wade, why did you come here in person?”Charlie smiled slightly and said, “Chief Lammy, I just came over from Northern Europe, and I brought some other members of the mysterious organization over. There are more people this time, and they are not dead soldiers. They are one level higher than dead soldiers.”“Not dead soldiers?” Merlin asked in surprise, “What level is that? What are they responsible for in the organization?”Charlie explained, “They are called the Armed Calvary Guards internally, and they are responsible for guarding the dead soldiers.”When 547, who was sitting in a wheelchair, heard this, he said in amazement, “The Armed Calvary Guards? Is it the Armed Calvary Guards who are in charge of watching over us?!”Charlie shook his head and sa
