Chapter 422: Trip to West Nation

Chapter 422: Trip to West Nation

With the imprint of wanderers, Gao Yang, Qing Ling, Officer Huang, Lithe Snake, Nainai, and Chen Ying boarded the plane at nine o’clock at night and arrived at the West Nation airport at eleven in the morning.

The one welcoming them at the arrival hall was a blond man with average appearance but a pair of deep, captivating grayish blue eyes. He was all dressed up in suits with a brand name watch and his blond hair neatly combed, cutting the figure of an elite worker.

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to West Nation!” He spoke in authentic West Nation language, his smile friendly.

“It’s been a while, Chen.” He opened his arms to give Chen Ying a hug, only to remember the difference in culture when Chen Ying remained unmoving and opted to shake her hand instead.

Chen Ying took his hand and answered in the same language, “It’s been a while, Dick.”

She let go and turned to introduce the man, “He’s Dick, a West Nation native and a member of the Union’s intelligence department. He’s been spending most of his time here, and he’s the head of this investigation.”

“Can he be trusted?” Lithe Snake asked in their own language.

“He can,” Chen Ying said.

“Dick, this is the head of Operation: Heavenbreaker, Elder Seven Shadow of the Qilin Guild,” Chen Ying introduced Gao Yang separately.

“Your reputation precedes you, Elder Seven Shadow.” Dick offered a hand.

“Well met.” Gao Yang nodded and took his hand.

—Detected Talent: Tracking. Do you wish to replicate it?

Tracking, serial number 125, Support-type.

The Talent allowed one to locate an object they had touched within a certain period of time.

That made the man a human tracker and locator, perfect for intelligence work. New novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Chen Ying then briefly introduced the other members. With that out of the way, Dick led them to the parking lot, where there was an eight-passenger white van.

It drove out of the airport, entering Zone 1 of A City in an hour.

—Activate Lie Detection.

Gao Yang tested him secretly. He didn’t lie, and he was benevolent.

While drinking cola, Nainai got to her feet and smirked, speaking in choppy West Nation language, “Ha, what a pity. The one this Empress had defeated survived since Ragnarok, yet ended up in the land of the abandoned. This time, allow this Empress to wield the spear of fate to execute...”

Chewing on her hamburger, Qing Ling looked up at Nainai coldly.

Nainai immediately fell silent, gnawing on the straw in her cola and sitting back down without a word.

“What did she say?” Dick looked confused. “Did I miss something important?”

“No, she was expressing approval for your findings,” Gao Yang explained. “Nothing more.”

Dick chuckled awkwardly. “I suppose there’s a cultural difference?”

No, it’s the difference between a normal person and a chuuni patient.

Gao Yang didn’t voice the comment.

They spent another ten minutes discussing the plan before coming to a consensus.

Gao Yang made the official announcement. “We’ll sneak into the warehouse at three o’clock in the morning.”

“Won’t that be dangerous?” Chen Ying was a little worried. It was the Godbearer Cult after all.

“Don’t worry. It can’t be their main base, but merely a small branch office.” Gao Yang was certain of it.

“Yeah,” Officer Huang agreed. “Their main base wouldn’t stand out so much with all those lackeys guarding it.”

“The priority of the mission is stealth. We do this cleanly and grab only the key figures. Do not attract too much attention, or we’ll alert the enemies in hiding.”

Gao Yang nodded.

“Rest in the afternoon. We set out at night.”
