Super Island Tycoon
Chapter 972 - 971: Footsteps
The master and disciple duo walked out of this eerie and terrifying place. After walking for a certain distance, Yanran gently pressed the remote control in her hand.
Behind them, the building not far away exploded.
With one loud bang after another, room by room, flames and thick smoke emanated from windows shattered by the blasts, the blast waves devastated the buildings of Zhou Country.
With the last and loudest bang, the building slowly collapsed, becoming a pile of ruins.
This hell on Harry Planet was thoroughly destroyed.
People, alarmed by the loud noise, stood at a safe distance watching, stunned by the scene before them, some whispered among themselves.
However, no one tried to approach to extinguish the fire or offer help, it seemed that seeing this place destroyed was a relief to them.
These people did not notice the two extraterrestrial individuals who had walked out of the building a while ago.
Yanran smiled as she slung the bag she was holding onto her shoulder, the action had an indescribable air of casual elegance.
She smiled and asked the teacher walking beside her: "Teacher, where are we going now?"
Jiang Cheng's expression became peaceful as well, he responded to his female disciple: "Now, we'll go to the place that scum pointed us to.
The spiritual coordinates I placed on Ba Lv are very close to that place, if my estimation is correct, that should be the headquarters of the Black Exhaust Group.
Will Little Flaming Firebird be there?" Yanran asked eagerly, as it was her most loved pet and had been away from her for too long, she couldn't help but care for it.
Jiang Cheng pondered for a moment: "I believe it will be there!"
Joy quietly crept onto Yanran's face, and at last, she couldn't hold back and burst into a smile.
The sun broke through the clouds and shone above them as well as every person on Harry Planet.
Jiang Cheng and Guo Ran destroyed the hell on Harry Planet, where people from the Dark World executed vigilante justice on ordinary folks.
Now, the master and disciple head to the address left for them, according to Jiang Cheng's estimate, that should be the headquarters of the Black Group, and the spiritual marker he left on Ba Lv also pointed there, they're nearly at the same place.
On the other side of Harry Planet, a range of rolling mountains stands, where towering trees almost completely conceal the entire mountain range.
Among the mountains, there are countless caves big and small, some are shallow enough to accommodate just one person, while others are bottomless from the outside, appearing as small entrances to unexpectedly vast interiors.
No one expected that in the Dark World, the infamous '497' Black Group's headquarters was set among this mountainous region, within one of the caves.
The expansive hall could accommodate over a thousand people, with neat and smooth wooden flooring, and a person's footsteps rushed across it.
"Do you have something urgent?"
"Do you not know what time it is and what I'm doing?"
A person cloaked entirely in black raised his head to look at his subordinate: "You better have a good reason to explain, otherwise, you'd better expect my rightful punishment."
His subordinate, still panting heavily, lowered his body humbly and bowed deeply before speaking: "An emergency situation, it must be reported to you immediately."
"Oh?" Upon hearing his subordinate had urgent news, the person cloaked in black put down the pen in his hand and sat up.
"Just now, our satellite observed that Pan's base on Harry Planet was destroyed." his subordinate reported.
"Indeed, that counts as an emergency," the person cloaked in black nodded: "So, what caused it? Have you investigated?"
His subordinate bent even lower: "Our people monitoring Pan are working to gather information, according to their reports, before the building was destroyed, a spaceship left Harry Planet's airport and headed straight for Pan's base."
"It's no secret that Pan has been colluding with the local director Lu Cha for quite some time. Do you know who was on the spaceship?"
"We're investigating diligently, we believe there will be results soon." his subordinate replied.
After pondering for a while, the person cloaked in black waved his hand, his tone slightly impatient, causing sweat to trickle down his subordinate's forehead: "Before you gather the facts, don't disturb me, such pointless reporting is merely wasting my time."
"Let your subordinates organize the intelligence, then evaluate if it's necessary to report it to me."
"These matters should be handled by the intelligence department, do not disrupt me, I have more important matters to attend to, do you understand?"
The person cloaked in black finally said, waving his hand, he ordered his subordinate to leave.
His subordinate left without further words, heading out.
Once outside, he straightened his back, took a long breath, wiped the sweat off his forehead, and muttered: "The intelligence department idiots! Everything is an emergency to them, and they always report to the higher-ups."
"Damn it!" he cursed before heading towards the intelligence department.
Even at such a distance, the person cloaked in black clearly heard his subordinate's mutterings outside the door. π»π³β―β―π€β―π·π―β΄πβ―π.πβ΄π
Being disturbed like this, his mood was no longer calm.
He stood up, paced the hall, contemplating something.
After a while, seemingly having decided on something, he started to walk out of the hall.
Along the way, people who saw him avoided him, then silently bowed low, he walked by as if not seeing them, unhurriedly.
It was evident that this person held an extremely high status within the Black Exhaust Headquarters, other members of the Black Exhaust Group not only treated him with respect but also showed clear fear through their deferential actions.
He walked for a long time before reaching the deep underground prison.
When a prison guard saw him, he immediately bowed low and asked flatteringly: "Why have you come here personally to such a filthy place? The smell here might be unpleasant for you, if you need to bring up any prisoners, just give orders."
The person cloaked entirely in black did not answer, only waved his hand for the guard to step aside, continuing deeper into the prison.
The further he went, the more squalid Zhou Country's environment became, finally, at the innermost cell door, he stopped.
