I, from the Celestial Empire, have parachuted into Teyvat.

After Spencer sat down, the president asked, "Spencer, what are your thoughts?"

"what?"

Spencer was taken aback by the president's sudden question.

"Your Excellency, what are you referring to?"

However, Spencer's rhetorical question seemed to have touched a nerve with the president again, and his anger flared up once more.

"What are you referring to? You, as the director of the intelligence agency, are asking me what I'm referring to? Are you all just sitting around doing nothing? What use is Congress keeping a bunch of useless people like you around?"

Another barrage of angry words left Spencer utterly bewildered, breaking out in a cold sweat.

"You bunch of useless trash! The news and reports about this are everywhere. Even the third-rate gossip newspapers sold in the retail stores on the streets of Huacheng are more informed than you! Go online and check it yourselves!"

Spencer hunched his shoulders, pulled out his phone, and fiddled with it for a few seconds. Then, even more cold sweat broke out on his neck.

"This...how is this possible? Another world...in the Bohai Bay? Your Excellency, this is impossible, absolutely impossible..."

The president slammed his hand on his desk and roared, "Impossible! Does the Grand Elder of China think this is a joke? Or does he think everyone on the planet is stupid?"

Spencer, holding his phone, swallowed hard and said in a low voice, "But our intelligence agents..."

"Intelligence personnel?"

The president pointed at Spencer's nose and launched into another tirade: "So these are the useless bastards your intelligence agency keeps? Tell us, what intelligence have they obtained after operating in China for so long?"

"Your Excellency, the main problem is that the China Security Bureau's defenses are too tight; our people can't..."

I don't want to hear these useless explanations!

The president stared wide-eyed and said, "I just want results, and related intelligence! Is this so-called traditional space passage to another world located in the Bohai Bay really real?"

Spencer gritted his teeth and forced a smile, saying, "We don't know the specifics yet... but based on previous information, China's blockade of the Bohai Bay and Qindao City is indeed very suspicious, unless it's for researching secret weapons..."

"Spencer!"

The president paused for a moment after each word, and Spencer kept his head down, not daring to look up. Even without looking at the president, he knew that the president's eyelids were probably trembling with anger.

"Use your bald, stupid brain to think about this. Qindao City disappeared from the map for a month. Do I need you to analyze whether this is suspicious or not? I want intelligence! Detailed intelligence!"

As he spoke, the president stood up from behind his desk, grabbed Spencer by the tie, and pulled him in front of him.

"Now, immediately, get out there and investigate!"

Spencer walked out of the presidential palace in a daze, got into his car in a daze, and finally returned to his office at the intelligence headquarters in a daze.

Secretary Jenny watched as her boss closed the office door, and then the sound of something breaking came from the otherwise soundproof office, showing how much force the person who smashed it to the floor had used.

Just as Jenny was shrinking back, trying to pretend she hadn't heard anything, the office door opened again, and Spencer walked out with a gloomy face.

“Jenny.”

"Director..."

"Bring me the head of the executive department, Sander, right now."

"Yes."

After saying this, Spencer was about to return to his office, but he stopped halfway through closing the door and then added.

"Oh, by the way, tell the cleaning staff to come to my office."

Ten minutes later, Zhang Sanda from the Executive Department rushed to the Intelligence Bureau.

Upon entering the director's office, Sander was immediately berated by Spencer before he could even understand what was happening. Spencer vented all the anger he had received at the Presidential Palace before finally stopping, and continued with an unhappy expression: "In the past six months, you haven't obtained any intelligence related to China. This is a failure of your executive department!"

Sander said with a wry smile, "Director, you know how tough it is to crack this place in China after all these years. We've lost at least a hundred people there. I really don't dare send anyone else."

"This is no excuse for your inability to obtain intelligence!"

Spencer frowned and glared.

"The recording of the live speech by the Chinese elder statesman has already gone viral online. As the director of the intelligence bureau, I didn't hear a word about such a big event. Do you know what the president scolded the intelligence bureau about when I went to the presidential palace today? Even the gossip media on the internet got the news faster than we did!"

Sander muttered under his breath, head down, "The intelligence agency's inefficiency is due to the inaction of certain leaders..."

Spencer raised an eyebrow: "What did you just say?"

"Cough cough, it's nothing, I just caught a bit of a chill..."

"That would be best."

Spencer snorted and continued, "I don't care what methods you use or how many people you send as cannon fodder. Within two days, I need to see the relevant intelligence on my desk! Otherwise, you, the executive minister, can get the hell out of here!"

"Chief, I..."

Sander was about to say something more when his phone suddenly rang.

Sander and Spencer apologized and quickly took out their phones to answer the call.

"Hello...what?"

Seeing the drastic change in Sander's expression, Spencer frowned curiously and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Chief!"

Sander said excitedly, clutching his phone.

"We've found two missing agents; we've got some information about China!"

Chapter 430 The Unlucky Guy

Let's rewind to a few hours before the Grand Elder delivered his nationwide televised address.

Busan, a coastal city in the Northeastern Peninsula region of China.

A young South Korean man dressed in flashy clothes and sporting dyed blond hair was walking along a street near Busan Beach, his brow furrowed as he made a phone call.

"Hyo-ah, you have to believe me. My relationship with Ji-min is absolutely normal, it's not what you're thinking..."

Perhaps he was too engrossed in his phone call, for the young man didn't see the figure walking towards him. He bumped into it with his head down, and then his phone fell to the ground.

"Damn it...who the hell is this?! Don't they have eyes in their head?"

The young man, who was already in a bad mood, was further enraged by the collision. He looked up, about to unleash a torrent of curses, but upon seeing the other person's expression, he suddenly froze.

There were two men, one tall and one short, with typical European and American features. Both of them were barefoot and shirtless, their jeans were ripped and half of their thighs were exposed, their skin was dark and red, their faces were covered with stubble, their hair was half a finger long and stuck to their faces, and their bloodshot eyes looked like they hadn't slept in a long time.

"You...you all..."

Seeing the two of them, the young man was momentarily at a loss for what to do, and the words of cursing stuck in his throat, unable to come out for the time being.

"You guys should be more careful when you walk next time..."

After saying that, the young man didn't linger any longer, hurriedly picked up his phone from the ground, and left quickly.

"Hey? Hyoya, I accidentally dropped my phone. And guess what? I bumped into two foreign beggars. What bad luck..."

Watching the blond-haired young man walk away with his phone in hand, the shorter of the two foreign beggars spat and cursed, "Damn it, what kind of South Korean bastards are they? South Korea is the country I hate most in my life. All they say all day is 'shiba' and 'seumida,' speaking a bunch of gibberish that sounds like they're shouting 'dung balls.' If I weren't so weak right now, I would have sent that kid to the hospital for a few days just for his attitude."

After the short man finished cursing, the tall man spoke up: "Alright, Anderson, we're only back on land thanks to God. Instead of cursing, you should think about how to get some food."

Yes, these two foreign beggars, one tall and one short, were none other than Anderson and Bell, the two unlucky spies from the M Country intelligence agency who had mistakenly entered the storm in their small boat when the World Gate caused a disturbance that transported Qin Island City to the Abyss Sea. They did not die.

It's a miracle that these two gentlemen survived.

At that time, the Gate of the World experienced abnormal fluctuations. The huge energy shock stirred up a hurricane at sea, and the waterspout swept the two of them and their boat into the sky, transporting them, along with Qin Island City, to the Abyss Sea.

Because this teleportation teleported all the buildings and land in the sea area near Qindao City together, some small islands and reefs in the sea area near Qindao City also entered the Abyss Sea. When the two woke up again, they had landed on such a small island and reef with a land area of ​​only a hundred square meters.

Due to the storm, the small boat was severely damaged, the communication equipment was destroyed, and the positioning device was nowhere to be found. The two were so confused that they didn't even know they were no longer on Earth. They were stranded on this small island, and had no choice but to temporarily put aside their "you cheat on me" and "I cheat on your dad" conflicts and start cooperating.

(P.S.: The so-called "you cheat on me" and "I cheat on your dad" conflict can be found in Chapter 365 - The Unlucky Guy 1.0)

Initially, the two tried to escape the small island and return to the mainland, but the boat was badly damaged and had almost no usable parts. In addition, the island they were on was too small, with only moss, a coconut tree and some small shrubs everywhere. There wasn't even enough material to make a wooden boat. So, their idea of ​​escaping the island was temporarily abandoned.

After realizing they couldn't return to land, the two fell into despair, reminiscing about the carefree days in the big city, drinking and cuddling beautiful women. They even considered ending their lives by crashing their heads into a coconut tree—until they didn't die but instead knocked down a few coconuts.

Feeling their stomachs cramping with hunger, and seeing the coconuts on the ground, their survival instinct made them temporarily forget about meeting God.

On the first day, the two of them used coconuts to get through it.

The next day, the two tried to commit suicide again, but gave up due to hunger.

At this point, the two of them stopped thinking about how to die and began to think about whether they could survive.

At first, the two of them could barely fill their stomachs with the coconuts from the coconut trees. However, the number of coconuts on the trees was limited, and before new coconuts grew, the two of them quickly realized that this would only lead to them running out of resources and being able to survive for at most a week before starving to death on the island.

So the two began looking for other food.

The first thing the two thought of to get food was fishing. They dismantled some parts from their damaged boat to make a simple fishing rod and harpoon, and started fishing using moss from the reef and earthworms they dug up as bait.

However, after two days of continuous fishing, the two realized something was wrong. There were no fish in the nearby waters, not even a single marine plankton, and the seawater was a strange blackish-purple color.

Faced with this situation, the two thought for a long time and finally came to a common conclusion—they must have been swept by the storm to the waters near Japan, because Japan's discharge of nuclear wastewater meant that only the waters here could produce such strange colors and have no marine life.

Having figured this out, the two became even more desperate.

Surrounded by nuclear wastewater, with no food or water, they will starve to death on the island sooner or later.

So the two of them came up with the idea of ​​killing themselves by running over, since dying by running over is better than starving to death.

Another day passed, and Bell, delirious with hunger, put the earthworms and moss he had originally intended to use for fishing into his mouth, and then the two of them opened the door to a new world.

The small island reef had plenty of moss and earthworms, enough to feed the two of them for more than half a year. In addition, there were coconuts and some unidentified small tree fruits growing on the shrubs, so their food problem was temporarily solved.

As for drinking water, the two reused the empty coconut shells to collect rainwater for drinking.

For some reason, their small island was not disturbed by monsters, which was perhaps the only lucky thing in their misfortune.

And so, the two spent a month in a daze on the small island, gradually becoming ragged, unshaven, and unkempt. Until recently, when the rescue operation ended, the two, along with Qin Island City, were teleported back to Earth.

Ironically, when they were teleported back to Earth, the two were sleeping on a small island to conserve their energy. This meant they didn't see their bodies turn into light particles, nor did they know they had experienced a magical spatial teleportation.

However, their misfortune did not end there.

Upon returning to Earth, they were caught in a secondary ocean storm caused by the spatial fluctuations resulting from the teleportation from Qin Island back to Earth, and then... the two of them were swept into the sky again...

Perhaps these two were just too unlucky, and even the goddess of fate couldn't bear to see them suffer. This second storm didn't send them to meet their maker, but instead swept them into Busan, South Korea, where they ended up bumping into someone on the street.

As night fell and the neon lights of the skyscrapers began to flash, the two, who hadn't been around people for a long time, forgot their unpleasantness from the accident and their hearts were filled with excitement.

Bell asked, "Anderson, what do you most want to do right now?"

"Right now, all I want is to have a good meal, take a shower, and then get a good night's sleep."
