Chapter 8 Preparation

Confidential items must be very tightly guarded.

There are special guards guarding the corridors on the floors where objects are stored.

However, some sneaky existences cannot be seen with the eyes...

When a guard was staring at the stairs, he could always feel something coming up from downstairs, but there was no sign of anyone.

A gust of wind blew past him. He glanced at his face, and finally turned his face back.

The very back is the room where the certificates are impounded. That door does look thicker than the other doors in the Maritime Safety Administration, but it is not at all comparable to the confidential doors in the White Crown.

At a location where no one noticed, a flame suddenly burst out and burned through the keyhole of the door.

Then, the door was pushed open silently and closed again after only a short while. No one noticed this strange thing.

In the house, Victor's figure appeared from the invisible state. The true fire of Samadhi was still burning, but it was lifted and extinguished by him.

This special flame will not spread, so even if it burns through the room, it will only burn off a corner of a table inside.

Victor immediately began to search for Clark's impounded information by his name. A quarter of an hour later, the Maritime Safety Administration staff finally discovered that the door's lock had been penetrated, and hurriedly called the guards to check.

They opened the door but found nothing.

Messy documents were scattered all over the floor, telling people the fact that it had just been invaded by outsiders.

The Maritime Safety Administration launched a search of the entire building, but found nothing in the end because the thief had long since disappeared and sneaked away.



Still in that secret moonshine tavern, the things taken out from the Maritime Safety Administration were packed and thrown in front of Clark Hugo.

"I got what you wanted!"

Facing the visitor, Clark was instantly awakened from his confused drunken state.

He hurriedly checked the items inside and got them all back, including his certificate that he could engage in ocean-going work.

"I don't understand..." Before Clark could speak, the poor-looking young man in front of him became confused, "Even if you get everything back, but you already have a criminal record and leave it there, what's the point of it?"

?"

Clark was ecstatic and did not look drunk at all: "No, no, just take it back. There will be no other criminal records."

His words reminded Victor that there is no "Internet" in this world, and seizing certificates is the only means to restrict those who engage in bad business. As long as he does not meet any acquaintances in the future, Clark can already use his paper certificate to board any ship.

Hold a management position.

Seeing that he was satisfied, Victor also reminded him that it was time to fulfill his promise.

Everything is ready, and the first step of the plan can be carried out - to go to the island where the cruise ship ran aground to conduct a survey.

For this reason, Victor asked for a long leave from the Anti-Suppression Department without authorization to avoid any urgent matters interrupting and distracting him.

Then, he began to arrange for people to accompany him. In addition to Clark, Victor also wanted to bring someone to accompany him this time.



"You want me to go to sea with you?" Eredin was lying on the cushions of the carriage, with no intention of getting up.

"Yes, I need an experienced bodyguard." Victor stood outside the car and looked at the disheveled female demon hunter.

Eredin chuckled: "With your ability, you don't need me to intervene, right? I don't want to know your secrets."

"Everything needs to be prepared second-hand. You can travel alone, but take the same cruise ship with us and pretend that we don't know each other." Victor planned.

Eredin doesn't think it's necessary. What matters to her is the issue of remuneration.

"So, how much commission will you give me?"

When Victor saw the other party asking for money, Victor's first reaction was that he was unhappy: "You have lived in my house for so long, you must make some contribution!"

Eredin jumped up instantly and glared at Victor: "You said the same thing last time, I have already helped the children of the Cambino family, I don't owe you anything."

Victor recalled it for a moment, and it seemed that it was true, but he retorted: "Not enough, what you did is causing long-term losses, and you must provide long-term after-sales service."

The word after-sales was something Eredin couldn't understand. She only knew that she had fulfilled her promise and would not agree to go to sea with Victor.

In the end, Victor agreed to sign a contract with her and pay her a salary, but the money would have to be paid after the cruise ship was inspected and put into the transportation task intact.

Of course Eredin would not be fooled like this, and she asked Victor to advance part of the money.

However, Victor had just been defrauded of an investment fund. Although there was still a sum of money hidden in the Incense Mansion, he was not prepared to embezzle it because it was used to deal with special circumstances.

"If you can return safely from this on-site inspection, I will pay you a sum of money as a reward. This is my biggest concession. If you still don't agree...then I will have to hire other bodyguards."

Seeing Victor's concession, Eredin no longer insisted, but also gave in and agreed to the proposal.

But in the end, Eredin still didn't understand why Victor asked her to be a bodyguard.

Eredin knows Victor's ability. He has experienced so many dangerous and terrifying events, but he is still able to survive, which is enough to prove his excellent survivability.

What she didn't know was that there was an ordinary person among the people traveling with her - Clark Hugo. This was the reason why Victor wanted Eredin to accompany him.

The situation of the Wind God Enlil is too strange, and no one knows the specific situation of that island.

Clark Hugo was very important to this investigation mission, so Victor paid for Eredin to accompany him at his own expense.

Apart from Eredin, Victor could not find anyone else qualified for the job of bodyguard.

Of course, another person on this trip is Mike Cambino.

The guy before took the initiative to ask to go with him, which was unexpected by Victor.

Although Mike is a seer, his ability is not suitable for fighting. Once he encounters a situation like the last deep diver, it would be good to be able to protect himself. How can he have the ability to protect others?

After everything has been arranged, it’s time to choose the time and route, and buy a ticket to board the ship.

Mike suggested taking a cruise ship between the Red Land and the Indong Continent, mixing in immigrants and wealthy tourists, and then disembarking after arriving at a colonial island near the stranded island, and then renting a separate ship to reach the destination.

Cruise ships traveling between the Red Land and Indong Continent will also use the southern islands and reefs as transit points and dock at the docks of those islands.

Those islands are controlled by the Kingdom of Greybean and Gordon, and the local indigenous people are also the source of immigrants and slaves.
