Chapter 349: Chapter 182 On the Way to Dragon Tiger Mountain_2
The incident at Atlantis University, where someone almost lost their life due to an inexplicable fire, was absolutely shocking.
On the internet in Dragon Country, numerous social media platforms were buzzing with the public’s will, demanding a statement from Atlantis University.
To quell public opinion, Dragon Country’s leadership promptly ordered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to deliver a diplomatic letter to Atlantis, hoping to receive a statement as soon as possible.
On the day after receiving the diplomatic letter, Atlantis announced that it was dealing with the university president at Atlantis University.
That very afternoon, Atlantis officially announced that the university president, filled with remorse over the fire, had committed suicide at home.
This news sparked a huge uproar online and even the academic community mourned deeply.
Sittelberg, who should have been disgraced, once again appeared in the public eye with an image of responsibility.
At this moment, in a small room within Atlantis’s power structure, a man sat in the shadows.
Kaelmes and Griffin stood respectfully before him.
"So after all the sacrifices, we still didn’t catch that man."
The man in the shadows spoke in a calm tone, which made Griffin look terrified.
At that moment, Kaelmes no longer held the same calm demeanor he had outside; he looked like a mouse seeing a cat.
"Minister, it’s my fault that this happened. Although I suspected they would use force to retrieve them, I didn’t expect it to happen so swiftly."
Having served alongside the minister for many years, Kaelmes knew his temperament very well.
In his presence, simply apologizing and pleading for mercy would certainly displease him.
But if you first explained your actions and proved your usefulness before sincerely admitting your mistakes, there would be no problem.
"You’re not wrong, Long Country’s response exceeded our expectations."
The minister seemed persuaded by Kaelmes’ reasoning, or at least willing to give him a chance.
"What do you plan to do next? Bring him back alive or dead, it doesn’t matter."
After the minister said this, Griffin’s expression turned to one of surprise.
They wanted Lin Beichen in order to uncover the secrets of his body.
Gaining insight into the source of his formidable power would enhance Atlantis’s human modification abilities.
However, there was a significant difference between the blood of a living body and that of a corpse, and Griffin knew this well.
Vital genetic data could be extracted from the blood of a living body, but it was impossible to obtain from a corpse’s blood.
Seeing the fleeting look of surprise on Griffin’s face, the minister seemed to see through his thoughts.
"What, are you questioning my decision?"
"Of course not!"
Griffin suddenly felt his legs go weak and fell to his knees. A sense of fear emanated from within him.
Upon seeing Griffin like this, the minister couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.
"This man holds too many secrets. Even if we can’t get other secrets, his body still has a lot of value."
As he spoke, the minister took a sip of his tea, then immediately smashed the cup over Griffin’s head.
Blood trickled down Griffin’s forehead, but he didn’t dare to move or even wipe it off.
"Do as I say, and you will be well rewarded."
Five minutes later, Kaelmes and Griffin stepped out of the room.
As they left the power department building, they both realized their bodies were drenched in sweat.
"So what’s your plan?"
Griffin looked to Kaelmes for help. He no longer had much obsession with catching or killing Lin Beichen, his only desire was to survive.
"Since the minister agreed to dead or alive, it makes things much easier."
Kael, ranked third in the minister’s think tank, quickly devised a new plan.
When Kael shared his plan, Griffin’s eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
Even if he were to see a ghost in broad daylight, it wouldn’t shock Griffin as much as Kael’s plan, which was to make a move on Lin Beichen and his group on their way back.
"Are you out of your mind? Didn’t you see they were escorted back by the military?!"
Griffin’s intense reaction was understandable since Kael’s plan involved making a move on the way back.
Griffin naturally thought Kael was planning to target the military.
If it were a covert assassination, that would be manageable, but openly attacking the military would escalate the conflict to an international level. Such consequences would be unbearable not just for Kael, but also possibly for the minister.
"Do you think I’m an idiot? Or do I look like an idiot to you?"
Seeing the look on Griffin’s face, Kael had already guessed his thoughts.
"So, what do you mean by ’making a move on the way back’?"
Hearing that Kael wasn’t planning to directly target the military, Griffin finally felt relieved.
