Chapter 436: Chapter 436 Found

Philemon held his breath, listening intently until Fu Yanhe’s footsteps had completely vanished before letting out a long sigh, collapsing onto the ground, limbs weak.

His face was pale, and he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with trembling hands.

He had been saved.

Zane’s face changed colors as he clutched his chest and stumbled towards the telephone sitting nearby.

Just as Philemon was coming to his senses, he saw Zane’s actions and quickly stepped forward to stop him, asking, "Father, what are you doing?"

"Of course contacting Fu Weizhi. If he was really killed by this person, what would become of my miracle drug!" Zane said, his face darkening as he clenched his teeth.

"Moreover, that kid also blew up my military warehouse! I must give him some trouble! Get out of my way! Don’t stop me!"

He had just traded with Fu Weizhi for a vial of miracle drug and had just begun to experience its wondrous effects.

He hadn’t even gotten the chance to become younger with the drug! There was no way he could let Fu Weizhi be killed off just like that!

Philemon was pushed aside, staggering a few steps, and looked at Zane incredulously, "Father, are you insane? Do you have any idea how brutal the head of Snare is?"

"Just take a recent case, for example. The terrorist group Scorpion, to whom we have been supplying weapons in Sutanda City. Every single one of them, including their leader, was taken care of by Snare within a mere hour!"

"Have you considered what the head of Snare would do to us if he found out we had tipped off Fu Weizhi?"

Philemon raised his voice, his emotions running high, "The blown-up military warehouse is very likely a preview of what will happen to us!"

For the first time, Zane was scolded by his timid eldest son, with his face turning from green to white. Suppressing his anger, he demanded, "What about my medicine then?!"

"That medicine must also be problematic, Father. We should get a full-body checkup first. Let’s pretend we know nothing of this matter."

Seeing that Zane was considering his words, Philemon’s tone softened, "Besides, Snare is strong, and the members of the immortal organization are strong as well. Let them clash with each other; we should not get dragged into it."

With the strength of their small family, to get involved in the conflict between these two powers, there would be only one outcome: death.

All Philemon could do now was to protect himself wisely.

As for Fu Weizhi’s fate, that was up to his own luck.

-

Elsewhere.

Fu Yanhe conveyed the information he obtained from Philemon to Xiang Ling’an, who had just returned from blowing up the arsenal.

He then spread out the map of Latvia and pointed gravely towards the east, "According to what he said, if you go from the east, you’ll reach the Primitive Forest."

"Local records that I’ve investigated show that forest is teeming with various large carnivorous animals all year round, and the locals rarely venture there."

"However, in recent years, many outsiders have been entering and exiting the Primitive Forest, yet hardly any locals manage to get any information from them."

"Those who tried to follow out of curiosity couldn’t keep up after less than a mile, losing track."

Xiang Ling’an frowned, eyeing the map and asking, "According to this conjecture, is it likely that the base of the immortal organization is inside the Primitive Forest?"

Fu Yanhe’s gaze was cool, but his brows were shrouded with a touch of gloom, "Yes, but we cannot confirm whether what he said is true or false until we verify it."

"But regardless of its authenticity, I must make a trip there."

He had to seize any chance that could lead to rescuing Shen Yanhe.

"Let’s wait for Gu Yingxi," Xiang Ling’an understood the urgency and worry in Fu Yanhe’s heart to rescue someone, as he felt the same deep concern for Shen Yanhe.

But the Primitive Forest was undeveloped and rife with dangers, and even they, who often undertook missions in remote areas, dared not enter it without proper preparation.

"She has a newly developed bomb in her hands, with her around, our confidence is boosted."

"Plus, she’s skilled at concocting poisons and insect repellents, just a bit of that could ward off a lot of poisonous creatures."

Xiang Ling’an paused, originally wanting to say that Shen Yanhe was actually the best at making insect repellent, but the thought of her current whereabouts unknown made him feel uneasy.

"I’ll lead the team over first," Fu Yanhe shook his head.

He was running out of patience.

He feared that the longer it took, the more dangerous Shen Yanhe’s situation would become.

After all, the words Scorpion shared with him on the way to the international front, Fu Yanhe still remembered.

Xiang Ling’an was hesitant to speak and in the end, he clapped him on the shoulder, "Alright, you go first. I’ll wait for Gu Yingxi to arrive and then lead the team to provide support."

Fu Yanhe nodded, took the members of the Net and quickly retreated, hurrying toward the Primitive Forest in the east.

Despite their rapid actions, it still would take two hours to reach the entrance of the Primitive Forest.

To narrow down the search area and to avoid ambush, Fu Yanhe deployed intelligent drone surveillance to scan both the interior and the periphery of the forest.

The trees in the Primitive Forest were tall and dense; the search would take some time.

Fu Yanhe suppressed the eagerness and concern in his heart, sitting in front of the computer screen, not blinking as he stared at the footage captured by the drones.

hours had already passed.

Fu Yanhe hadn’t slept for a day and a night; his eyes were bloodshot, and a short stubble covered his chin, making him look grim and disheveled.

Wu Fang couldn’t help but say, "Chief, why don’t you take a nap? I can keep an eye out for you and call you at the first sign of trouble."

"No need," Fu Yanhe’s voice was low and hoarse, his gaze still fixed on the computer screen without shifting.

"I’ll do it myself."

He feared Wu Fang and the others wouldn’t be vigilant enough and might miss some important footage.

"You haven’t slept for a day and a night; even a normal person can’t sustain this," Yi Fang said with a helpless and worried face. He advised, "Your wife is still waiting for you to rescue her. If you collapse, what will she do?"

Fu Yanhe was silent for two seconds before he closed his dry eyes, "Let me sleep for an hour, wake me up after an hour."

Wu Fang and Yi Fang breathed a sigh of relief and quickly agreed.

Just as Fu Yanhe stood up, he suddenly heard a shout, "Chief! There seems to be someone here!"

Fu Yanhe’s eyes sharpened, and he strode over, his gaze glued to the computer screen.

On the screen, the drone circled around the tall trees, gradually penetrating deeper inside.

As the leaves blocking the lens moved aside, two or three wooden cabins appeared, with a bonfire lit on the clearing in front of the cabins, where two or three men armed with guns and dressed in camouflage suits were sitting and talking.

Suddenly, they seemed to notice the drone not far away.

One of the burly men cursed under his breath, picked up his rifle, and fired a burst of bullets at the drone.

The screen snapped and then plunged into darkness.

Fu Yanhe grabbed the map, asked for the drone’s flight route from his subordinate, and quickly sketched it on the map.

"Pack up," Fu Yanhe gripped the map, his voice cold: "We’re moving out immediately!"

Yanyan, wait for me!
