After Charlie took the key, he and Vera packed a few sets of clothes before driving out of the palace. The data center just happened to be in the north, so Charlie could drop by since Kaeden, Merlin, and Hugo were all there too.After some pleasantries, he told them they could ask for Helena if they needed help with simpler matters, but to contact him if it was serious.Before they left, Hugo took him to the side and said, "There's something we need to talk about, sir."Charlie nodded. "What is it?"Hugo said, "Over the past couple of days, I've looked through all of Horizon's operations and the hardware they're working with. As it turns out, their satellite launches have all been outsourced to SpaceX ever since they started their satellite launch service—one might even say they were one of SpaceX's very first clients and their biggest support."Considering their close partnership, I was thinking you could affiliate Ten Thousand Armies' new communications satellite with Horizon.

As Charlie drove along the highway to the Arctic Circle, Vera asked from beside him, "What's your plan if the AI module does find the Qing Eliminating Society's safehouses across Africa?"Charlie thought about it and said, "I guess it's the same plan as last time—slip in quietly, eliminate the Section Ambassadors, remove the dead soldiers and the Armed Cavalry Guard, and leave after blowing up the safehouse."Vera considered the idea. "It's my opinion that there are over a dozen, if not twenty or more Qing Eliminating Society safehouses guarded by dead soldiers across the world. Naturally, you managed to take the Cyprus safehouse completely by surprise, and I'm sure the one in Nigeria will be a success too, with your elaborate misdirection."However, as the saying goes, 'Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.'. If Fleur's plan to use Nigeria falls through while she loses other bases across Africa, she would be more cautious, and you can bet that even they would doub

Vera sighed, a little stern as she said, "Mr. Wade, you are not divine, so don't push yourself too far. Although the dead soldiers deserve pity, the innocent people whom they butchered deserve even more. Sure, Fleur entrapped them into her service, but they are equally responsible for assisting her reign of tyranny, massacring towns and villages."Yes, some of the dead soldiers had gone through a lot, but they never held back against innocents either. I've seen their atrocities with my own eyes, and it's more than enough to earn them a life sentence. It is therefore my earnest request that you shouldn't be too kind to them and put yourself in danger because of that. "At the same time, and despite what Vera had said, she thought to herself that she should be the villain to protect Charlie's gentle heart.Charlie was silent as he pondered for a long while, when he suddenly remembered, "But what if I could just seize the Right Military Governor's authority? The dead soldiers would com

The royal chalet stood atop the gentle slope of the top of the hill in the north of Lyngen, with a small road that led to the foot of the mountain, with steel fencing encircling the bottom of the hill itself.Charlie took out the key given to him by Susan as he alighted and opened the gates on the fence before driving all the way up the hill.As the picturesque hill looked just like a bowl placed upside down, and its outline seemed drawn with delicate lines, the drive upward was smooth and steady.As for the chalet, it was a simplistic wooden building, and it was also enormous, housing a huge parlor, nine bedrooms, a study, and a dining hall. It could definitely accommodate up to thirty people!After parking the SUV at the front, Charlie opened the door.Although no one lived here, the royal family had gone out of their way to air and clean it regularly, so every room was spotless. The dry weather also helped, so there were no strange odors.There was a real hearth parlor too, un
