As the scene unfolded, Charlie noticed several cars, likely waiting to join Duan Liye’s convoy.
The freighter began to reverse thrust as it approached the dock, quickly decelerating and tilting slightly towards the pier.
Once the ship fully stopped, Duan Liye took the lead, descending the spiral staircase from the deck. Meanwhile, two crew members had already opened the hatch below.
Concurrently, a crane next to the freighter started to move, signaling themencement of unloading.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Since Charlie had instructed Duan Liye to follow the usual handover procedures, Duan Liye seamlessly fell into his routine of docking.
Upon stepping out of the hatch, a crowd of men awaited them. The leader immediately addressed Duan Liye with respect, expressing, “Master Special Envoy, you… you’ve worked hard all the way!”
Charlie could sense a hint of nervousness and apprehension in the man’s voice.
Observing the others around him, he noted their shared tension.
Charlie surmised that their unease stemmed from the recent defeat in Bergen. After all, Lin Wan’er (ni) had been personally summoned by the Lord of Ennd, yet their team had ultimately failed in a challenging assignment.
Now, as they prepared to deliver the antidote, it was likely they feared a repeat of the Lord’s actions from 20 years ago, which had resulted in dire consequences for everyone involved.
In response to the respect and anxiety disyed by the group, Duan Liye exhaled a sigh of relief and proceeded directly towards the three cars, ignoring the crowd.
The lead man hurried to the middle Mercedes-Benz, opening the door for Duan Liye, and then assisted Charlie in opening the co-pilot’s door.
Duan Liye, d in a ck robe, took his ce in the back seat, with Charlie settling into the passenger seat beside him.
Following this, the weing party quickly boarded the other vehicles, and the convoy departed, heading towards the copper mine located just a kilometer from the pier.
As they exited the pier, the convoy swiftly made its way to the main entrance of the copper mine, where the automatic gate opened in advance, allowing them to drive in uninterrupted.
From the outside, the copper mine resembled the Wanlongdian base, albeit on a smaller scale.
Despite the ordinary appearance inside, Charlie noticed numerous security measures, including hidden lookout points and weaponry, indicating stringent security protocols.
The convoy halted in front of an office building, where a crowd was already gathered downstairs.
The leading figure, a well-dressed middle-aged man, exuded the aura of a prominent entrepreneur.
Beside him stood a tall, thin young man wearing sses, who projected a schrly demeanor. At first nce, he appeared to be the middle-aged man’s assistant or secretary.
However, Charlie quickly realized that the middle-aged mancked any cultivation, not even as a martial artist, while the bespectacled young man was indeed a master of the dark realm, albeit at a lower level.
ording to Duan Liye’s earlier disclosures, it seemed that the middle-aged man was merely the superficial manager of the copper mine, while the young man was likely the true authority here, referred to as Jiedushi by Xiaoqiwei.
Behind the young man stood several martial arts masters, although the most formidable among them was merely an old man at a great perfection level.
Nheless, the expressions of these individuals were filled with anxiety, likely a result of their recent failure.
As the vehicles came to a stop, the young assistant immediately stepped forward, respectfully opening the doors for both Charlie and Duan Liye. Once Duan Liye exited the vehicle, the well-dressed man approached him, bowing slightly and saying, “Master Special Envoy, you have worked hard!”
The others echoed this sentiment, bowing and eximing, “Master Special Envoy, you have worked hard!”
Duan Liye waved his hand dismissively and replied calmly, “Let’s go inside to discuss.”
“Of course! This way, please!” The young man gestured respectfully, leading the way with urgency.
Duan Liye followed closely, while the middle-aged man trailed behind, saying, “Master Special Envoy, we have prepared the recent operation report for your review, if you could spare a moment.”
Duan Liye simply hummed in acknowledgment, remaining terse, which only heightened the middle-aged man’s nervousness.
Charlie observed all of this from behind Duan Liye, taking note of the palpable fear emanating from the group. Their anxiety reassured him; it was clear that this was a prime opportunity to instigate rebellion among them, as the knight guards and dead soldiers likely faced sleepless nights due to their recent failures.<h3 ss="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading" id="chapter-list"><strong>Next Chapter</strong>
