Chapter 459: You Will Have All the Credit You Want
"Yes, sir!"
They were all professionals, and they immediately began to dig.
The peculiar properties of this metal interfered with many types of signals.
As a result, there wasn't a single surveillance camera or guard in the vicinity.
The Angel Association was too confident in its defenses—so confident they believed no one in the world could breach them.
And they were right, for the most part. But the people of Country A generally didn't understand a simple principle: there is strength in numbers. When people work together with one heart, they can sever metal!
How could a country with barely two hundred years of history, one that couldn't even achieve unity, possibly comprehend the solidarity of the Dragon Country?
They would never have imagined that not only had the Dragon Country discovered this place, but they had also dispatched all of their available top elites!
「Half an hour later.」
They finally hit a steel plate.
The team immediately stopped digging.
Xiao Ye took out a specialized tool and began to clear the dirt from its surface.
Sure enough, beneath the dirt was a thick, gray metal with no visible seams.
He took out a stick of incense and slowly lit it.
As the white smoke drifted up, Xiao Ye's gaze followed it closely.
Soon, he followed the direction of the smoke to a specific spot.
This was where the trail of smoke disappeared.
"Dig here!"
An hour later, a short tunnel had been dug underground.
Xiao Ye led the way. After clearing the layer of earth in front of him, he exposed the entrance to this metal structure.
Since this was a place for storing supplies and underwent annual maintenance, it was likely only entered once a year.
That meant the last time someone had been inside was probably several months ago.
Xiao Ye stepped aside and summoned the master hacker and decryption expert. "It's your turn now. Do a good job."
"As long as you can open this door without alerting them, you'll get all the credit you could ever want!"
The two nodded solemnly and began to work together.
The rest of the team went back to the surface to stand guard.
They had to prepare for the worst. If the alarm was triggered and the Angel Association was alerted, they would have to evacuate immediately.
Another two hours passed. Sweat beaded on the two experts' foreheads, and someone beside them had to wipe it away time and again.
CLICK.
A barely audible sound echoed.
The decryption expert broke into a smile, his voice trembling slightly. "Success! It's cracked. We can open the door anytime."
"Hold on."
The master hacker spoke up. "I'm almost there. I've found an internal alarm system."
"If we open the door recklessly, we'll still be easily detected the moment we step inside."
The others hadn't been idle either. They started setting up a conveyor belt running from the tunnel outwards.
The other end of the conveyor belt led to a line of trucks.
Three trucks in total were linked by the conveyor system, with the final section ending at a small, sealed-off pier.
Several submarines and a cruise ship were docked at the pier.
They appeared to be inactive, but the moment the supplies were loaded, they could find a pretext to set sail!
"Done," the master hacker finally announced after another hour.
Everyone smiled.
Xiao Ye waved his hand. "Get ready to open the door. And keep your instruments ready. Don't let your guard down for a second."
Thanks to their combined efforts, the warehouse door finally opened.
All the equipment inside was running, but under the master hacker's control, none of it would trigger an alarm.
As the team entered, rows of lights flickered on one after another.
They all stood frozen in shock as the enormous warehouse was revealed before their eyes.
It was filled with supplies—all sorts of countless supplies!
"This… This is too much!"
"Alright, let's get to work."
Xiao Ye smiled and waved his hand. Following behind them was another group of specialists.
They were logistics experts from the military, so they were highly experienced. There was no need to worry about them messing up.
"Yes, sir!"
The group immediately sprang into action.
The supplies had to be prioritized.
The most critical items would naturally be loaded first, followed by the others.
The conveyor belt was also connected. As items were continuously placed on it, people at the end would sort and pack them.
Moreover, they were all elites sent from the Dragon Country in separate groups, so there was no fear of any issues arising.
First and foremost were the various weapons, followed by medical supplies, and then seeds—all essential for reserves.
The remaining supplies came last.
Xiao Ye also joined in, helping with the work.
Before long, more helpers arrived. These were the elites General He had left behind in Country A, guaranteed not to leak any information.
「Three days passed in a blur.」
With the help of nearly a hundred people, the warehouse was almost empty.
It had to be said, Country A was quite impressive when it came to stockpiling supplies.
There was hardly anything useless; most of it consisted of essential goods.
The others left with the supplies, leaving Xiao Ye alone.
He thought for a moment, smiled, and then took out a can of spray paint.
On the wall directly facing the exit, he sprayed a large "L."
Now, when the people from the Angel Association arrived, they would know who did this.
They would probably be furious enough to die. After all, the value of these supplies went far beyond mere money.
The cache included a lot of medical equipment, weapons, and experimental tools that couldn't be bought with money.
Xiao Ye was the last to leave the warehouse.
As the great door slowly closed and the soil was returned to its place, everything went back to the way it was, as if nothing had ever happened.
The ships and submarines at the pier also secretly left the harbor, heading for a small country near Country A. It was a transit point where they would change their appearance before continuing on to the Dragon Country.
Onboard the ship, Xiao Ye had a grand feast specially prepared, arranging for everyone to eat and drink their fill.
For the entire night, everyone on the ship, except for those on patrol, celebrated wildly.
Xiao Ye was the only exception.
He watched the night scenery quietly, suddenly realizing it had been a long time since he'd had a moment of peace.
From the moment he first descended the mountain until now, he was either solving a problem or on his way to solve one.
But this had also allowed him to grow rapidly and see the truth of the world.
How many people lived and died in obscurity, never able to cross their social class? Yet here he was, standing at the pinnacle of the world, looking down on everything.
Once the Angel Association was dealt with, he would truly become one of the most powerful figures in the world.
Even the Xiao Family's status would rise with his.
At this thought, Xiao Ye smiled faintly and drained the wine from his cup.
「A week later.」
The ships arrived one after another at the small country, and after changing their disguise, they set off for the Dragon Country.
The moment they entered the Dragon Country's territory, everyone cheered with joy.
They were finally back!
Not only had they returned alive and without encountering any danger, but they had even brought back so many supplies!
This was a monumental achievement, and the credit was now theirs for the taking!
Xiao Ye watched them celebrate without disturbing them. Instead, he returned to his room and logged into the "L" account.
