Opening an office in Taila

Chapter 287 Notes

"Mr. Song, this way." Dai Feien led Song Yufeng onto the deck. Along the way, Song Yufeng had a complete tour of the interior facilities of this huge steel behemoth. It truly had everything, comparable to the aircraft carriers of his previous life... no, even more extravagant than the aircraft carriers of his previous life.

Who would have thought that such a massive ship would house an entire commercial street?

You could say that living on this giant ship is like living in a mobile city.

Song Yufeng stepped onto the deck and immediately spotted Duke Windermere observing his surroundings.

“Mother, Mr. Song has arrived,” Dai Feien said as she stepped forward.

"You've had a long time, Daphne." Duke Windermere nodded and smiled, then stepped forward and shook Song Yufeng's hand, saying, "It's been a long time, Mr. Song. I didn't have a chance to chat with you more last time we met."

“Yes, after all, Master Zhong had something urgent to tell you last time. Master Zhong’s matter is the most important,” Song Yufeng said with a smile.

"I originally wanted to have a talk with you this time, but unfortunately Master Zhong wants me to fully assist your operation, so it seems we can't talk."

"Perhaps we can talk after my mission is over," Song Yufeng nodded.

“Okay, I’ll wait for you to come back,” Windermere nodded.

"Speaking of which, how did Duke Windermere come to know Master Zhong? I was shocked when I first saw you appear before Master Zhong; I originally thought his influence was limited to Yan Kingdom," Song Yufeng asked.

"It's a long story, I'll tell you when you get back, but there's one thing I can tell you: Master Zhong is not just a master, we all respect him, including those guys in the city."

"Theresis and the others?"

"Yes, so I think your trip shouldn't be too difficult. The Kazdel army probably won't dare to touch you."

"real or fake?"

“Of course it’s true. You are his student, and Master Zhong once said that when he is not around, his students represent him. Therefore, whether it’s Theresis or those other royal court rulers, they should really think twice before they want to touch you. However, I don’t approve of you doing whatever you want. After all, no one can predict what those madmen will do. What if they really get desperate?”

Upon hearing this, Song Yufeng was at a loss for words. He was grateful for everything Hai Mao had done for him, yet he was also terrified of Hai Mao's true strength. Who exactly was he? What kind of scheme had he orchestrated?

"Alright, don't think about it too much now. Let me first introduce you to the situation in Lontinim." Windermere led Song Yufeng and Daphne to the front of the warship's deck.

In the distance, the towering walls of Lentinium are faintly visible, hidden in the night.

“Defiance should have told you the general situation. I’ll just mention a few important points, so listen carefully. First, there’s the city defense cannon. Those things can blast a huge hole in a high-speed warship with a single shot from their main gun. If war breaks out, they will be a huge threat to us. Once you’re inside, try to load these things into those city defense cannons.” Windermere handed Song Yufeng a bag filled with small red devices.

"Just place it in an inconspicuous spot inside the city's defensive cannons. I know you're just going in to scout the situation, but doing so will give us a huge advantage in the future."

"Okay... anything else?"

“Be careful of those rulers of the royal court. Although they might not dare to touch you, there’s no guarantee they won’t do something crazy. In short, be cautious. Also, you need to figure out something.” Her expression suddenly darkened, and she said seriously, “That superweapon… the Fragment Tower…”

"The Shard?"

"Yes, this thing is a building over 800 meters tall, a national treasure of Victoria, and also a huge superweapon. It can ignore distance and create a natural disaster anywhere. It is an extremely terrifying weapon... You can investigate and see if there is any useful information for us. By the way, you can also contact the Citizens' Self-Help Army. They might be able to help you in some way."

After giving some more instructions, Windermere said, "Please, Song Yufeng, everything you do will create a very favorable situation for our future."

"This is also for my own sake... Okay, so how do I say it? How do I get in?"

"Here's the thing, we have a route that goes directly into the city. Also, I'd like you to take Daphne with you."
