Chapter 3604 Never Suffer in Silence
Ushuaia, the port closest to Antarctica, primarily handles the transshipment and resupply of ships bound for Antarctica.
However, the port is relatively small, with one commercial pier and one oil resupply pier, totaling fewer than ten berths. During peak season, berths are often insufficient, forcing many ships to anchor in nearshore waters and personnel to disembark via ferry.
At this time, the port berths were nearly full, mostly with research vessels flying different national flags, including those from Northern Europe, China, the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, and Australia.
Due to the rough seas in the Drake Passage these past few days, these research vessels were waiting for their departure window in Ushuaia. It is said that many cruise ships and research vessels from the Antarctic Peninsula, the mainland, and the archipelago are also waiting for their return window, as they are rushing to disembark before the last departure window. Once the last batch of Antarctic tourists and summer research team members have returned to Ushuaia, this summer's Antarctic tourism season will officially end.
After the recent peak of the evacuation season passes, Ushuaia Port will see almost no more commercial cruise ships docking for the next six months, with only cargo ships and research vessels from various countries remaining. At that time, Ushuaia will enter its true off-season.
There's a little trick about Ushuaia Port: because many trips to Antarctica require booking well in advance and are therefore very expensive, beyond the reach of most people, if there are still tickets available before departure, the price will be drastically reduced.
Therefore, many backpackers, in order to reach Antarctica in the most cost-effective way, don't book cruises in advance, but instead fly directly to Ushuaia during the Antarctic tourist season and wait for available tickets on ships. At that time, there are many ships to choose from, and it's relatively easy to find a bargain.
The minibus drove directly to the dock, stopping only in front of the Nordic research vessel. Upon seeing the minibus return, several men immediately disembarked and warmly greeted Charlie Wade and his group.
They were somewhat surprised that all four meteorological experts were Asian, but their superiors had warned them that the four individuals' identities involved state secrets and that they were not allowed to inquire further. Therefore, although surprised, they all displayed excellent professionalism and did not ask any questions.
One of the men, around fifty years old, stepped forward and said to Charlie Wade, "Hello, Mr. Louis, I am John Torresson, captain of the Nordic research vessel Iliad. You can call me John. Welcome to the ship with the three ladies!"
Charlie Wade was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected that the only research vessel in the Nordic countries would be named the Iliad? So it was named after the royal family?
It seemed that the Nordic countries indeed showed more respect for royalty than other constitutional monarchies.
Immediately, Charlie Wade politely shook hands with him and said, "Hello Captain Torresson, I'll be troubling you for the next few days."
John Torresson wasn't quite sure which department Charlie Wade and his "meteorological experts" belonged to in Northern Europe. When their superiors shared information, they were specifically instructed not to ask too many questions, not to interfere, and to provide them with as much convenience as possible. Therefore, he even thought that Charlie Wade and his group might be from the military, but he also had a vague feeling that something was amiss. Military immigrants were rare; how could so many Asians arrive all at once?
Charlie Wade noticed the doubt in his eyes and thought that after boarding the ship, he would find an opportunity to give everyone on board a psychological suggestion to eliminate any future troubles and resolve the issue once and for all.
The Iliad was an icebreaking research vessel that had been launched less than five years ago. It had a displacement of 12,000 tons, a Class III icebreaking capability, and could navigate through ice layers up to 1.5 meters thick without hindrance. It could operate in frozen waters year-round, whether in the Arctic or Antarctic.
After boarding, the captain led the four on a tour of the ship's facilities and layout. The ship was large, with over a dozen laboratories in addition to the engine room and cargo hold at the bottom, as well as a restaurant, library, gym, and other public facilities.
The four then followed the captain to the crew cabins, which had over forty rooms of three types: single, double, and quadruple.
Research staff were assigned double or single rooms, while all crew members except the captain and first mate lived in quadruple rooms. The main mission of this trip to Antarctica was to transport supplies and evacuate researchers from the research station, so the entire ship had only about twenty people, less than thirty including Charlie Wade and his group of four.
Charlie Wade and Lin Wan'er each chose a single room, while Yun Rugo and Song Ruyu, used to sharing, opted for a double room.
The rooms on the research ship were naturally not as luxurious as those on commercial polar cruise ships, but they were certainly clean and tidy, with all the necessary facilities, including a private bathroom, 24-hour hot water, and a shower—more than enough for the four of them.
After helping them settle in, the captain said, "Please rest a bit, all four of you. Dinner is in an hour. We'll make an announcement when dinner starts; just head straight to the restaurant when you hear it."
Charlie Wade nodded slightly, then used a bit of his spiritual energy to give him a mental suggestion, instructing him, "Remember to have all the staff come to the restaurant for dinner. I'd like to meet everyone."
The captain readily agreed, smiling, and said, "No problem, don't worry, I'll call everyone over."
Charlie Wade nodded and said, "Then you go ahead with your work; see you in the restaurant later."
"Okay, see you at the restaurant."
After the captain left, Charlie Wade said to the three ladies, "After such a long flight, everyone must be a bit tired. Let's go back to our rooms to rest and pack our luggage. After all, it will be another four or five days before the ship leaves port, and then another three days of sailing, so it will take at least seven days before we can disembark."
Yun Rugo said, "Mr. Wade, I noticed that the crew members on this ship seemed a bit surprised to see us. Perhaps the fact that we are four Asian faces is a bit unusual to them. Is there any risk involved?
Ruyu and I don't mind, but we are mainly worried about Miss Lin's whereabouts being exposed, since there are surveillance cameras everywhere on this ship.
"Charlie Wade smiled and said, "I noticed that too, but don't worry. I already had the captain call everyone over for dinner. I'll give them a mental pep talk so they will do their best to make things convenient for us and not reveal our whereabouts to anyone. As for the surveillance footage, it's simple. I'll have their technicians open an interface so our AI model can process all the stored surveillance footage and erase any trace of us. That way, there's basically nothing to worry about."
"That's good." Yun Rugo was relieved and smiled. "Since Mr. Wade has made plans, then I won't worry about it anymore."
Charlie Wade nodded slightly and smiled. "After dinner, you two can relax and cultivate in your rooms. Or you can come and cultivate with me. It's fine if you don't go out for the next few days. As for Miss Lin, you can have them deliver your meals to your rooms. You can also tell them what you want to eat, and they will definitely do their best to accommodate you."
Lin Wan'er tentatively asked, "If you are also going into seclusion, can I stay in the same room as you? Otherwise, I always feel uneasy being alone."
Charlie Wade smiled and said, "Of course, no problem."
...
When Charlie Wade and the other three returned to their rooms, about three thousand kilometers away from Ushuaia, Wu Feiyan was sitting cross-legged in her palace.
In front of her were five jade stones of different shapes and sizes.
She continuously circulated her breathing technique, absorbing the precious spiritual energy from the five jade stones until all the spiritual energy in the jade stones was absorbed.
These five jade stones were painstakingly collected by the Wu family from all over the world and specially presented to her.
For the past three hundred years, Wu Feiyan has never stopped searching the world for all kinds of rare treasures, spirit stones, and magical artifacts. In her early years, she reaped considerable rewards, with a constant stream of valuable items sent to her. These not only helped her reach the Niwan Palace and increase her cultivation level, but also helped her gather and build her own army of cultivators.
However, with increasing modernization, these rare treasures have become increasingly difficult to find. Many natural treasures that require thousands or even tens of thousands of years to develop have gradually disappeared before reaching maturity due to climate change and human activities.
In the Dharma-ending Age, natural treasures are already rare, and the vast majority of them perish before reaching maturity, making them even rarer.
In recent years, medicinal materials for refining elixirs have become scarce, and spirit stones that can directly absorb spiritual energy are even rarer.
However, given Wu Feiyan's current cultivation level, even fifty spirit stones, let alone five, might not bring much improvement. Therefore, a sense of powerlessness in her cultivation gradually grew stronger within her.
She knew that she had entered the final fifth of her life. If she hadn't consumed the Eternal Green Pill, even if she lived to be a hundred, she would already be over eighty.
Less than a hundred years remained, a fleeting moment. If she couldn't capture Lin Wan'er and obtain her master's ring, she would face certain death.
But even if she captured Lin Wan'er, what then? Capturing her didn't guarantee obtaining the ring.
Even if she obtained the ring, she didn't know if it contained the Hundred Turns Thousand Reincarnation Pill.
If there was only the formula and no pill, it would be even more troublesome. Could she gather all the materials to refine the Hundred Turns Thousand Reincarnation Pill? Even if she found the materials, could her cultivation level be sufficient to refine it?
Each additional problem greatly reduced the success rate.
Moreover, behind the Po Qing Society was a mysterious enemy, a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment.
In conclusion, Wu Feiyan was increasingly uncertain about whether she could live to see the next five hundred years.
The thought of that mysterious enemy only fueled her anxiety. She immediately summoned her most trusted advisor, Wu Tianlin, and asked, "How's the investigation in Morocco going? Have you found any clues about that person or those assassins and elite guards?"
Wu Tianlin replied sheepishly, "Your Majesty, I have dispatched multiple teams to Morocco to investigate, but so far we have found no clues. Those people seem to have vanished into thin air. We haven't found any trace in any of the major ports, border crossings, or along any transportation routes within Morocco."
Wu Feiyan angrily crushed a dried-up spirit stone into powder, coldly saying, "Outrageous! Thousands of people simply vanished into thin air—how can they leave no trace at all? Even a fire..." "Even if they're burned, at least their ashes will remain!"
Wu Tianlin sighed. "My lord, our enemy is definitely a powerful organization. They not only have powerful cultivators but also formidable modern combat capabilities. The close-in weapon systems in Cyprus are the best proof of that. Their style of operation is extremely cautious, leaving almost no clues. Tracing them will probably take more than a year or two."
Wu Feiyan gritted her teeth and asked him again, "Since the complete overhaul of all the outposts, have you discovered any trace of the enemy?"
Wu Tianlin shook his head and said, "My lord, I have increased the number of sentries and surveillance at each outpost and have been monitoring the situation at each outpost. So far, I have not found anything unusual or suspicious personnel approaching. I believe that we..." "The enemy already knows about the Great Bloodline Reshuffle Plan, so they won't risk attacking our base anymore."
Wu Feiyan sighed, "The fact that they've stopped attacking the base proves that our Great Bloodline Reshuffle Plan has been very effective, but it has also cut off the enemy's leads. I'm afraid they'll give up now, and then we might never be able to catch them again!"
Wu Tianlin knelt on one knee, cupped his hands, and said, "My lord, I dare to say something disrespectful."
Wu Feiyan hummed in agreement, "Speak."
Wu Tianlin said, "My lord, if the enemy really gives up now, although we can't undo our losses or avenge these attacks, at least we won't be distracted by them anymore. I think the most important thing right now is to capture Lin Wan'er as soon as possible. Everything else can be put aside." "What do you think?"
Wu Feiyan remained silent for a long time before nodding slightly and saying, "You're right. It's alright to suffer a little loss now. Since the other party is also a cultivator, they must have been there for decades or even a hundred years. If I can resolve the Hundred Reversals Pill issue, I'll have plenty of opportunities to slowly find them and kill them one by one!"
At this point, her expression turned ferocious and she growled, "I, Wu Feiyan, have always been proud. I can suffer losses, but I will never suffer in silence. Anyone who offends me will pay a thousandfold price!"
Then, she coldly said, "Pass on my order: all members of the Wu family, as well as all military governors and elite guards, must do everything in their power to find Lin Wan'er's whereabouts. Whoever finds Lin Wan'er will be rewarded with a hundred years of lifespan and billions in assets. Whoever captures Lin Wan'er will receive an additional hundred years of lifespan for their entire family!"
