Chapter 1851: FollowMe to Chuansheng

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Thats one way to put it. The true potential of the ores hasnt been fully realized yet, but the scientific community widely agrees that once the ores are properly utilized, they could indeed change the worlds power structure.

Song Jinmin continued,

Even now, a seemingly insignificant small country could become a global superpower if it breaks through with this technology. Thats why everyone is so fixated on it.

From what I know, the main feature of Ba.s.s ore is their ability to release extremely high concentrations of oxygen. Can that really have such a significant impact?

You underestimate the influence of science. Just this one feature is enough to change the world, Song Jinmin said.

Because it can be used not only to make high-precision weapons but also for many other purposes. I dont know the specifics, but I do hope the ores can advance the ma.s.sage industry.

Lin Yi fell silent. There were many ways to change the world.

Wealth could change the world.

Skills could the world.

Weapons could also change the world.

Poverty, hunger, war, viruses

Everything had the ability to change the world, but no one could tell what exactly it was.

When you were on the island, did you meet any of their people?

Ive encountered a few cases of groundless accusations, but Ive never fought them head-on. Song Jinmin said.

In fact, meeting them on the island is similar to your current situation. They have a powerful reconnaissance system and could s.n.a.t.c.h the target ore before we arrived.

But sometimes, when we have the upper hand, they dont dare to show themselves. If a smaller organization gets the ores first, theyll use force to seize them. They wont engage in battles they cant win, but when they do strike, they clear their target very quickly, leaving no trace behind.

All these years, has no one captured any of their members?

When they cant escape, they commit suicide, just like the group we encountered in Doora.

So, this Mammon organization has never made a mistake?

There have been a few instances, Song Jinmin said.

But intelligence is their pride and joy. If they find out a member has been captured and hasnt committed suicide, theyll go to any lengths to destroy the evidence.

What do you mean by any lengths?

Song Jinmin fished another pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit one.

Let me give you an example. If we find the ores first, they wont dare to attack us directly and will let us take the ores. But if we capture one of their members, theyll stop at nothing, even risking a full-on battle, to kill the target.

We havent had any direct conflicts, but as you mentioned, a few years ago, a very powerful organization managed to capture a Mammon member without giving them a chance to commit suicide. Mammon retaliated ferociously. The other organization had to publicly execute the captive to make Mammon stop their a.s.sault and stabilize the situation.

If that s the case, the chances of them exposing themselves seem slim.

The Mammon organization would not fight against a powerful organization, so it was naturally impossible for them to be captured.

Besides, when facing weaker opponents, they could use their formidable strength to force them into submission, even if captured.

It may seem underhanded, but it was a good development strategy.

this doesnt sound like the behavior of a powerful organization.

Indeed, they have a unified doctrine and strict rules, aiming to develop quietly and then make a dramatic entrance one day.

How many people know about this?

Including us, not more than three, Song Jinmin said.

Those who know are all part of organizations like ours. What I told you is based on our a.n.a.lysis. Thats why we pay close attention to this issue when were on missions on the island.

Are you worried theyll flip the table?

Exactly. Were just outlaws who plan to retire somewhere once weve made enough money. But these guys want to take over the world, so we need to be cautious.

I want to know, how do you know they want to change the world? Do you have any evidence? Lin Yi asked. Even though theyre particularly keen on collecting Ba.s.s ore, a claim like that must have basis.

Thats why its hard to talk with you educated folks. These are just our guesses, but you insist on evidence, Song Jinmin said. Have you ever heard of a sixth sense?

I know the seventh dimension.

I dont know about that, never used it.

d.a.m.n, I havent used it either.

Dont dig too deep into this. What I told you is based on our a.n.a.lysis. You dont have to take it seriously, but just remember it, Song Jinmin said.

If we didnt have this kind of insight, we wouldnt have survived this long.

Lin Yi lit a cigarette and smoked quietly for a while.

He believed in the sixth sense.

Many times, he had to make judgments about external matters without solid evidence.

He trusted that Song Jinmin also had this ability. He might even have sharper senses than Lin Yi.

therefore, he had a hunch that Song Jinmin might not be telling him the truth.

He might know more than he said.

He just didnt want to reveal it.

He probably wouldnt tell Lin Yi even if the latter offered to treat him to a ma.s.sage.

What are you thinking about? You havent spoken for so long.

Im wondering why youre the only one here. Where are the others?

Your father left first. The others will also leave one after another, Song Jinmin said.

Im here to look for you because Im prepared to get some more ma.s.sages. The service on the island is too poor. It cant be compared to the service here.

I knew it. You must have had a reason for coming to find me. Lin Yi said.

But let s wait. I really dont have time to go at the moment.

Youve already recovered. Why are you still staying here?

I have other things to do. Lin Yi said.

I dont have to worry about her anymore. I plan to make a trip to Chuansheng to place flowers on my comrades grave before settling the score with Black Snake.

I originally planned to help you deal with Black Snake, but since you want to go by yourself, I wont get involved. However, I can provide you with some information.

Lin Yi rolled his eyes. You dont have to deal with Black Snake, but you have to go to Chuansheng with me..
