I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

Meanwhile, in Manhattan, New York.

The administrator, who is in charge of BPRD, is sitting in a secluded underground base.

He was giving a work report to several high-ranking government officials.

Because after giving Li Yuan a piece of land in West Virginia as payment,

The higher-ups received reports from those whose interests had been harmed regarding embezzlement by the administrators.

The matter has escalated quite a bit, so the administrator, as the primary person responsible,

The higher-ups had some complaints.

The meeting room was very quiet at this moment, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that it felt somewhat suffocating.

Feeling the gazes directed at him

The administrator loosened his tie somewhat uneasily.

At the same time, he cursed in his heart:

Don't let me find out which bastard reported it!

Otherwise, I'll make sure you regret it!

"Tell me, how do you want to explain this?"

Upon hearing the question from the senior executive seated at the head of the table,

The administrator composed himself and quietly began to report to everyone:

"In order to solve the imminent crisis in New York's underground,

I think the price we paid was well worth it.

If that massive crisis isn't resolved, the whole of New York will be in danger!

and......"

"I don't deny it."

Before the administrator could finish speaking, a senior executive interrupted him.

Then, he said in an icy tone:

"Even so, you still put a lot of pressure on us."

Your solution is not perfect; someone has reported that you are profiting from it.

"Sir, please let me finish."

Upon hearing this, the administrator looked up at the high-ranking official.

Composing himself, he earnestly defended himself:

"When I gifted the land to Li Yuan, I specifically chose a mountain range in West Virginia."

There, as you all know,

There's a very peculiar problem there.

The destination they were sent to was a mountain range in West Virginia.

The expressions on the faces of the senior executives immediately softened.

Clearly, they also knew that there was something special in the mountains.

Seeing that the higher-ups had quieted down, the administrator's face immediately broke into a smile.

He continued with a playful expression:

"If Li Yuan can't solve that problem..."

Then we can take the opportunity to reclaim the land use rights.

If he can really solve that problem

That means we've solved two crises with one bargaining chip!

This deal is profitable no matter how you look at it.

Upon hearing the administrator's explanation, the senior executives exchanged glances.

They both saw a hint of satisfaction in each other's eyes.

The leading executive paused for a moment, then spoke to the administrator, promising:

If things really develop as smoothly as you say...

We will not only not blame you, but we will also reward you.

The administrator's expression shifted slightly upon hearing this, and he added with a smile:

"To make Li Yuan more willing to accept it, I deliberately drew the area larger."

"As long as he's willing to accept that land, my plan will succeed!"

Upon hearing this, the higher-ups nodded slightly.

After confirming each other's opinions, they then asked the administrator to leave.

"Alright, administrator, you can go now. We have some other things to discuss."

Seeing that he had not been punished, the administrator finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He bowed slightly to the senior officials, then turned around.

She walked briskly out of the conference room.

Watching the administrator's retreating figure disappear through the conference room door,

The leading executive spoke calmly to the crowd:

"Although BPRD had many problems under his management..."

But let's keep him here for a while longer.

"We'll replace him after Li Yuan's matter is resolved."

Everyone nodded in agreement with the suggestion.

Seeing that everyone agreed, the man suddenly asked again:

"By the way, have you ever heard of a pharmaceutical company called something like 'Umbrella'?"

The administrator, leaving the meeting room, was unaware that he had already been replaced by default.

He greeted the staff at the base with a smile and enthusiasm.

After leaving through the hidden base exit,

The administrator quickly got into his car, preparing to head to BPRD's headquarters building.

I made advance contact with my colleagues at the base in West Virginia.

After boarding the bus, the attendant took out his phone and instructed the driver:

"Joe, we need to hurry."

Those incompetent fools have wasted far too much time.

That old bastard priest is probably getting impatient.

As they were talking, the administrator made a phone call.

The driver then silently started the car.

After the call was connected, the administrator said succinctly:

"Book me a plane ticket to Stockholm."

As he spoke, the administrator glanced down at his watch and added:

"It will be in two hours."

After confirming the information, the administrator casually hung up the phone.

His eyes finally glanced out the window.

The street scene outside the window flashed by, and the attendant felt that the car was going a little too fast.

He smiled at the driver and said softly:

"Joe, we're not in such a rush. You can reduce the weight a bit..."

The administrator, who was speaking, suddenly stopped.

The words he hadn't finished saying were stuck in his throat.

Because, to his surprise,

The driver in the car is not Joe!

Instead, it was a strange man with long hair!

The administrator quickly coughed lightly and looked out the window.

Only then did they realize that the car wasn't heading towards BPRD's headquarters.

Instead, they drove towards the sparsely populated suburbs!

"Joe, are you going home to get something?"

The administrator casually replied without changing his expression.

He reached for his ribs, ready to draw a pistol for self-defense.

However, just as the administrator carefully gripped the gun handle,

The man driving suddenly spoke.

"Stop struggling, your little pistol can't hurt me at all."

The driver glanced at the attendant through the rearview mirror.

In that instant, the administrator recognized who the driver was!

He was the tall, thin man who had always been by Li Yuan's side!

The administrator steadied himself, a smile appearing on his face, and tried to strike up a conversation with the other party:

"You... your name seems to be Lucian, right?"

"Throw your phone over here, or I won't hesitate to kill you."

Lucian didn't respond, but instead noticed the administrator's subtle actions.

Realizing his actions had been discovered, the administrator had no choice but to leave his phone on the passenger seat.

He sensed the murderous intent in Lucian's tone and could only cautiously ask:

"How much did Li Yuan pay you to hire me? I'm willing to pay ten times that!"

Lucian chuckled and replied calmly:

Money used to be very important to me.

But now, it's worthless to me.

Upon hearing this answer, the administrator's expression changed again.

I secretly said:

"This guy's a suicide squad member! What kind of spell did Li Yuan cast on him?"

Thinking of this, the administrator asked Lucian curiously:

"So what's your purpose in coming here and kidnapping me?"

"Don't worry, you'll find out soon enough."

An hour later, Lucian stopped his car in an abandoned complex of buildings.

After shooing the administrator off the bus, he took a shovel from his backpack, threw it at him, and said:

"Dig a hole."

"What?"

The administrator's eyes widened as he stared at the shovel on the ground.

He asked, somewhat bewildered:

"Shouldn't you... ask something?"
