Chapter 5830
At the same time, on top of a mountain far away, Salem put his telescope down. He looked curious.
“Interesting. Truly interesting…
“I didn’t think I’d be able to see a genetically enhanced warrior in the outskirts… I wonder which financial group in America finally decided to get their hands here.”
Salem sent a few texts, a profound look on his face.
“Isn’t that a good thing for us, Salem ?” Conrad asked with a small smile.
“After all, us from Chinatown have a good relationship with the eight financial groups -Master Henrik included. Maybe we’d even have a chance to work together.”
Salem glanced at Conrad.
“The waters here are deep. The outskirts won’t allow this many people together.
“Master Henrik’s main mission is to get his forces here and use this place as a bridgehead. That way, he’d be able to conquer the country’s northwest side. He’d be furious if the financial groups decide to get involved.
Conrad fell into deep thought. “So what do we do now?”
Salem chuckled.
“We’ll keep watching, and see if we get a chance to take action.
“Even if we don’t, we’d be able to figure out just how strong Harvey York is.
“Judging from the current situation, Rhodes must be the most powerful one out of the group. Since even the genetically enhanced warrior was scared of him, he must be pretty impressive.”
Conrad frowned. “He’s just a descendant of the Wright family. He’s not Emery. Why should we be scared?”
Salem glared at Conrad. “Let’s change places. The big show hasn’t started yet. That scene was just an appetizer…”
An hour later, under the peak of the Eden Mountain.
Thick clouds covered the entire sky; the weather was scorching hot, but it looked as if it was about to rain.
Harvey and the rest arrived here from the Mandrake Residence, and counted the time.
The Aenar Temple was in the middle of the Eden Mountain, hidden completely from the naked eye.
After traveling up the mountain for less than a mile, they located the guest hall. Their goal would be accomplished as soon as the beads were delivered there.
The two side lanes of the Eden Mountain were decorated with yellow, maroon, and navy colored cloth. The cloth fluttering in the wind represented the sects’ highest respect.
Other than that, all sorts of symbols were carved on the trees growing around the mountain.
Everything the Aenar Temple did was announcing just how important the beads being sent back here were. Not only was the environment spectacular, but the place was decorated grandly too.
However, the Aenar Temple didn’t send out a single monk to keep the surroundings safe. Even the legendary Great Wall was reciting his teachings in the guest hall so he could welcome the beads in time.
This was respect of the highest level.
The security of the Eden Mountain’s entrance, all the way to the guest hall, was all prepared by the Surreys. They managed to get the Wolven Tribe, the four great tribes, the top ten families, and other forces to be posted around the side lanes as well. Even a fly wouldn’t be able to get through!
