With the containers serving as cover, the task setup becos relatively simple; they just need to ambush.
Next, the screen changed to another map, showing a red dot.
Strong Liquor pointed at the red dot with the infrared and said, "This is the target ship. It's already locked by our satellite, and we can track its movents anyti."
This was quite unexpected for Lin Tian. Considering the countless ships coming and going from Sakula Country every day, even the most advanced satellite couldn't pinpoint a single ship so precisely, right?
Clearly, that ship has been positioned by the Security Managent Institute. To pinpoint it, a positioning device must have been installed on it.
Lin Tian had just inford Chen Moxiang about this, and the Security Managent Institute could achieve this quickly, proving just how capable this group is.
The action plan for tonight was quickly finalized, but to make things convenient, so preparations were still needed in advance.
This setup work doesn't require Lin Tian's presence.
...
At this mont, in a warehouse at the port, a group of people were wearing staff uniforms. However, nobody was working at this hour; they were sitting silently on the sofa, seemingly waiting for sothing.
The warehouse was heated, with a fire pit in the center, surrounded by Huo Peng.
If Lin Tian were here, he would have noticed one of his old enemies was present, Xiaogang!
Suddenly, soone spoke in the gloomy warehouse, but it was in the Sakula Country language, which Xiaogang couldn't understand.
"What's that bastard saying?" Xiaogang turned his head and asked Mr. Bai.
Mr. Bai's eyes flashed with a fierce light, "Nothing, he's asking if the people I found are reliable; he's very worried."
Hearing this, Xiaogang sneered disdainfully, "Tch, these Sakula Country people are really fussy. Let them transport it themselves, yet they refuse. Now they're not confident in the people we found; I think they just idle around with nothing else to do."
Saying this, Xiaogang tilted his head, puzzled, and asked, "But why did you seek out Qiao Gaoshan? You tricked that guy once, and he'll still help you?"
Mr. Bai leaned on the sofa and said indifferently, "Last ti he had soone kidnap Liou Qingcheng because of his grudge against Lin Tian. I told him this ti it's to take revenge on Lin Tian, which will lower his guard sowhat. Plus, with a hefty reward, wouldn't any businessman be eager?"
"Moreover, do you think this guy hasn't been involved in shady business all these years? If he helps us, he won't only gain enormous benefits but also eliminate an enemy, while still keeping himself safe. If he doesn't help us, he won't live much longer."
"Brilliant. Profits, selfish motives, and threats—a stick combined with a carrot—that guy won't obediently comply?" Xiaogang flattered.
Mr. Bai's mouth twitched a bit hearing this. It's just finding a runner, what's so clever about a little trick? This flattery barely has any skill.
Xiaogang saw Mr. Bai's expression remained unchanged, so he sensibly didn't dwell on this topic.
"Mr. Bai, do you really believe those people that Qingchuan spoke of are as formidable as they say? To even use the virus."
"Those people are not just formidable; even Lin Tian isn't their match. What do you think?" Mr. Bai raised an eyebrow and said, "Those ancient martial arts families, each one is stubborn. Since they won't hand over those dicines, we have to take action ourselves."
"You're right, I think those people have practiced martial arts too much and have beco foolish, confronting us with nothing. They truly think their fists are invincible, and no one in the world could deal with them? But… are those dicines really worth all this effort?
"Worth it! Lin Tian used to be a nobody, but suddenly transford so impressively. If his transformation didn't co from so stroke of fortune, I wouldn't believe it. I guess his fortune likely ca from consuming so spirit dicine, able to cleanse and refine his body. If such effects weren't possible, do you think I'd help these Sakula Country dogs?"
In this warehouse, apart from Mr. Bai and Xiaogang's own people, the rest were Sakula Country practitioners who've just arrived in the Celestial Dragon Continent not long ago. They don't understand Celestial Dragon Continent language at all. So speaking in front of them, Mr. Bai was utterly unconcerned.
Mr. Bai considers himself a person of extraordinary intellect, and is also very arrogant.
In the Wang Family, he only held the status of an Honored Guest. However, now with the Sakula Country people, he's beco a subordinate. If not driven by benefits, how would he have lowered his status like this?
"But when those dicines are extracted, they'll be taken back to Sakula Country. We won't get a single one?"
"Hmph, once those dicines are extracted, whose they are isn't necessarily decided. Do you think just because they're extracted, they'll belong to them?"
Xiaogang's eyes lit up, "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!"
Mr. Bai closed his eyes and rested, saying nothing. In his eyes, soone like Xiaogang is dispensable, so there's no need to speak too much with him.
Suddenly, Mr. Bai stood up from the chair and spoke in Sakula Country language, "Alright, I'll leave transporting the virus tonight to you all, I have another urgent matter, so I'll leave first."
"Huh? Mr. Bai, tonight's task is so important, but if you leave, what if there's a mistake?" a Sakula Country person asked.
These Sakula Country people were just regular practitioners. In the Celestial Dragon Continent, they primarily handle tasks like transporting goods, but they don't speak the Celestial Dragon Continent language. With Mr. Bai as the interpreter, many issues were resolved; if he left, conversations would beco much more troubleso.
"There will also be your Zhuge Clan people on the ship tonight; communication won't be an issue. Besides, such a trivial matter as transporting goods is unlikely to go wrong, right?" Mr. Bai turned his head, his voice cooling down a few degrees.
The Sakula Country person knew Mr. Bai was sowhat displeased and hurriedly stood up nodding, "Hi!"
Actually, this Sakula Country person also looked down on the Celestial Dragon Continent people, but since Mr. Bai is an essential collaborator in the Celestial Dragon Continent, despite having failed a previous task, causing the deaths of more than twenty mid-level martial artists and bringing significant trouble to Sakula Country, he wasn't held accountable. What can a runner say?
With a cold snort, Mr. Bai led a group of people and strode out.
At this mont, Xiaogang also stood up. Mr. Bai looked back at him and said plainly, "You stay here. It's better to leave our people here."
Xiaogang barely stood for ten seconds before sitting back down. In front of Mr. Bai, he practically had no right to resist.
To be honest, Xiaogang is currently in a very embarrassing situation.
He couldn't stay in Xianglong Tea House, cooperation with the Wang Family failed, and most importantly, now the police and Lin Tian's n are looking for him. Aside from relying on Sakula Country people, he had nowhere else to go.
If it weren't for the fact that he still has so connections in the country and can speak with certain factions, the Sakula Country people wouldn't keep him.
In a way, Xiaogang is a traitor without aning it. If he could speak Sakula Country language, he'd be a real-life 'interpreter'.
