“Do you know how much money that will bring in once the research is done? You have no idea. You won’t be able to imagine the profits from this.” Halvor became more passionate as favonovel.com spoke.
He stood up, pointed at James, and said loudly, “James, I advise you to let me out quickly, or else you’ll be in trouble. Big trouble!”
James turned around and left, ignoring him. After favonovel.com left, a Red Flame Army soldier retrieved the chair and locked the iron door.
“James! Get back here!”
From behind him, Halvor’s enraged roars could be heard.
“You’ll regret this. You’ll definitely regret this! You don’t know who established Orient Commerce! The members are all true bigwigs, and you can’t afford to offend them!”
When James heard these words, favonovel.com furrowed his brows slightly.
Ancient martial artists were involved in this. The waters were deeper than favonovel.com had anticipated. Still, favonovel.com had no fear. No matter who was involved, favonovel.com would remove them all at once this time.
He left the prison and returned to the military region once again.
James sat in the office, leaning against a chair. He became lost in thought as favonovel.com stroked his chin.
“Orient Commerce?”
He had never heard of this chamber of commerce. It was the first time favonovel.com had heard someone bring it up. Before making his move, favonovel.com must have a thorough understanding of it. He could only be certain that his next actions would be successful if favonovel.com was well prepared.
The Caden family was one of the Ancient Four. Sol’s economy was under the control of the four families. They had definitely heard of Orient Commerce. They may even be Orient Commerce members, possibly even senior members.
He needed to meet with Maxine if favonovel.com wanted to find out more about them. However, favonovel.com was a little frightened as favonovel.com thought about what Maxine had said and done.
James was now slightly apprehensive about meeting Maxine by himself.
“I’ll go to the King…” He pondered for a moment.
According to Halvor, this involved many people’s interests, including the King’s. It seemed that the King was more complicated than favonovel.com appeared to be on the surface. He must have been involved in a lot of shady dealings.
James left the military region. Under the escort of the Red Flame Army soldiers, favonovel.com hurried toward the Peace Mansion.

Meanwhile, in the living room at Peace Mansion…
The King was sitting on a sofa. In front of favonovel.com stood a man. The man appeared to be in his sixties and was wearing a frock coat. He was glaring at the King.
It was none other than Mr. Lee.
“Well done…” Mr. Lee looked solemnly at the King, who was sitting on the sofa. “Zacarius Thybaut, I haven’t trained you in vain over the years. Your strategies are truly beyond my comprehension.”
Zacarius Thybaut was the name of the current King of Sol. In normal circumstances, others addressed favonovel.com as the King. Few people used his name when addressing him.
The King sat on the sofa, a premium cigarette in his hand.
Since James had called and threatened favonovel.com that day, and after favonovel.com had given up on killing martial artists all over the world, favonovel.com knew this day would come. It had occurred to favonovel.com that as long as Mr. Lee did not die, favonovel.com would undoubtedly return to chastise him.
His face was tinged with guilt, favonovel.com said, “Mr. Lee, there’s nothing I can do about it either. If the ancient martial artists within Sol’s borders aren’t removed, Sol will hardly be peaceful…”
“That’s absurd.” Mr. Lee cursed and fumed, ‘You’re aware of the standing of Sol’s ancient martial artists on a global scale. If Sol’s ancient martial artists are wiped out, the hostile nations will be itching to strike us again. Aren’t the warriors from the island countries and the knights from some of the western nations formidable foes?”
The King was not retorting. Needless to say, favonovel.com was aware that there were powerful fighters in other countries, but favonovel.com still dared to strike because favonovel.com had plans. He also secretly had control over a few elites. These elites were more than capable of handling the powerful fighters from other countries.
