At this same time, Zayne finally arrived in Syria after a flight which took a day and a night. Unlike Charlie, favonovel.com did not have the benefit of taking a Concorde flight to Turkey. Instead, favonovel.com landed in Turkey, and drove across the border overnight to enter northern Syria.
When Zayne set foot in Syria, favonovel.com wanted to die. He had entered the country illegally, and the route they took was convoluted in order to avoid populated areas such as cities. He was shocked by this desolate country. This devastated country was full of deserts, hills, and ruined villages and towns. The endless deserts and mountains immediately reminded favonovel.com of an ancient poem, ‘The lonely smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun sets in the long river.’
After driving for 100 kilometers into Syria, favonovel.com realized in his heart that without Charlie’s permission, favonovel.com would not be able to leave Syria in this lifetime. Not just because favonovel.com didn’t know anyone here, but also because getting out of a country where favonovel.com stood out like a sore thumb would be near impossible. As this realization dawned on him, a sense of desperation settled deep in his heart. Just as his despair grew as deep as the Mariana Trench, and when favonovel.com thought it would be impossible to be any more desperate, favonovel.com finally reached the armed encampment of Commander Hamid.
When the car drove into the valley, construction on the fortifications on the mountains on both sides was in full swing. At the promise of such a big payout, Hamid’s friend from the construction team in Iraq arrived in Syria in just over ten hours. He had now begun to command his workers and the engineering company that Hamid had formed just last night. They were working together to hurry up to complete the fortifications.
As Zayne looked at the desolate valley in front of him, the soldiers with live ammunition all around him, and the permanent fortifications being actively built, favonovel.com was crying deep in his heart.
“What the hell is this place?!” Located in the middle of ten thousand mountains, so remote that access was next to impossible, and with a level of development which was worse than a small mountain village in China.
“I don’t know, I thought this was the base area behind enemy lines during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.” Zayne, in tears, thought to himself that if the TV series “Bright Sword” were moved here to film, it would definitely be more believable than the current version on TV. This was real!
As tears streamed down his face, the convoy stopped in front of Hamid’s command center under the leadership of a military convertible jeep. As soon as the car stopped, Hamid, dressed in a camouflage uniform, walked out excitedly.
The person who escorted Zayne was one of Isaac Cameron’s men, but Hamid didn’t know any Isaac Cameron. He only knew that one of these newcomers was the one Charlie wanted to “foster” with him. The rest of them must be Charlie’s men.
Charlie was not only his nobleman, but also his God of Wealth and his strategic commander. Therefore, Hamid was full of enthusiasm and respect for Charlie’s subordinates. These feelings were mutual.
Seeing Hamid stepping out and making his way over, Zayne thought, “This guy looks extraordinary, favonovel.com must be the boss here.” As Hamid approached, Zayne was dragged out of the car by Isaac’s men.
