Helena nodded respectfully. "Yes, Mr. Wade. By the way, since I didn't wire you the money from the last pill transaction, I can wire everything at once this time.""How much did you make from the last transaction?" Charlie asked.Helena became flustered since she had to lie, and she had to compose herself for a moment before answering, "That would be 110 billion dollars. As we agreed for a fifty-fifty split, I'll wire you 55 billion..."Charlie smiled before she could finish. "See, Helena—I asked you to be my proxy because I don't actually want to partner with the Rothschilds for the time being. That's not the same as staying away from them entirely, and I know Harrison will eventually tell me the truth when we meet and he's made to understand I hold his life in my grasp."Even more flustered just then, Helena quickly said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Wade… It's not that much…"Sighing, she quickly explained, "Harrison and I agreed on sixty billion and the AI module. I just thought it's too m

While Charlie did not have concrete proof that the three elders from the Elder Council of the Qing Eliminating Society were waiting for him in Nigeria, his instincts told him that they were there.After all, Fleur would have understood that she faced an unknown but formidable adversary after losing the Four Great Earls. At this point, they couldn't afford to split up their forces, but were more likely to concentrate them in one place for a higher chance of victory.In fact, Fleur must hate him to the bone and fantasize about killing him. Otherwise, she wouldn't use an entire base as bait to make sure Charlie would have no chance of getting away this time.Charlie even deduced that since the three elders had arrived in Nigeria, they wouldn't be leaving before they got him. So, while they were waiting for him, he would spread Earthnet across Nigeria as fast as possible, after which he would attack a Qing Eliminating Society base in a different country as a misdirection. It definitely

Early on, Cadfan would spend his time on helicopter rides, taking in the scenery and watching the sunset.But in time, everything looked all the same and left him bored—all he could hope for was for his mansion to be finished soon so that he could properly retire.When he landed today, however, his long-serving butler came running with his satellite phone, exclaiming, "Sir! Ms. Sophie called you—she says it's urgent and that you should call her back as soon as you can!"There wasn't even internet connectivity at the ranch, so calls could only be made or received through a satellite phone. It was cumbersome and had a lot fewer functions compared to a smartphone, so Cadfan never carried it around and left it with his butler.Now, hearing that it was urgent, Cadfan promptly took back his phone from his butler, holding it with both hands as he called Sophie. Sophie soon answered, telling him immediately, "I have good news, Gramps!""What is it?" Cadfan asked before he knew it. "Is C

Meanwhile, Charlie was continuing his road trip with Vera, only starting their return to Oslo after sunset.Along the way, Vera suggested, "Since you're planning to hit the Nigerian base when the three elders of the Elder Council depart, why not seize this timing to extend Earthnet's reach to the country, too? The three elders of the Elder Council will most likely be flying, and with eyes on the ground, we could get a fix on their position when they leave the borders."Charlie nodded. "Sure, but we need to do this in two separate steps. The first is to have our people head to Nigeria and buy out various vending machine companies. The other is to purchase our own custom hardware, as the vending machines locally at present won't have security cameras equipped.""I agree," Vera smiled. "And the security cameras equipped need to have internet connectivity, so we can demonstrate it as a direct upgrade to present machines. After that, we will also customize the vending machines so that th

Pausing, Arlo then continued, "Like the Rockefellers, the core of the Rothschilds's income comes from the energy and resource business."Sure, technology appears to be developing endlessly for now, but certain fields might see the old replaced with the new. Brutish warriors such as us certainly don't have the edge to succeed in such fields, and is there any assurance we can claim the pinnacle of that field? Just the slightest change could lead to losing every last dollar in a hundred-million-dollar project."On the other hand, invest in an oil field, and it's a steady income of one billion for the next thirty years. That's how important it is to play things steady and why we should always prioritize reinforcing ourselves against any potential upheavals. If another world war starts tomorrow, I won't bet on making money with computer chips or smartphones, but I sure as hell can bet on making billions from gas, steel, and other alloys!"Despite being nearly four hundred years old and l

Standing behind Arlo, Callum, seeing that the former was clearly irritated, said, "If you're not used to this place, governor, I could book a five-star hotel. The three elders already went to the basement—it's just me keeping watch over the rest."Arlo shook his head and said quietly, "Her Lordship told me that I am to oversee the entire plan without allowing anything to go amiss. If anything happens and I'm away, I won't be able to survive Her Lordship's wrath."Callum hung his head fearfully in turn, quickly apologizing, "Sorry, sir. It seems that I haven't been prudent…""Forget it," Arlo sighed, waving him off. "I can stay here for a couple of days, but it's going to be a real trial if I have to stay any longer. Heaven knows if her lordship's unknown adversary would ever show up, or when.""Even Her Lordship doesn't know who they are or where they could be," Callum sighed. "If all we do is wait, who knows if we'll end up waiting for weeks, months, or even years…""Indeed, but
