People are watching American TV shows, and they are also watching American-style iaido.

By the big lake.

Ding Ze, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, stretched lazily.

It's been so tiring, but thankfully, this wave is finally over.

"Nobody's coming?" Janet asked.

Ding Ze shook his head. "It's hard to say. The Longevity Club might send someone, but the chances are slim."

Janet smiled. "That's good."

“Well, we still have one more thing to do. Once we’re done, John’s helicopter should arrive, and then we can leave,” Ding Ze said.

Janet listened with a hint of curiosity, "What is it?"

Ding Ze smiled and turned to face the space where the Tree of Life was located. "Take a thorough look inside and see how much human activity there is."

Janet didn't understand. "Why?"

“I had a suspicion before,” Ding Ze exhaled a puff of smoke. “We previously speculated that the Tree of Life was the foundation of the Longevity Club. It was through the Tree of Life that the Longevity Club was able to bind itself to wealthy people and politicians around the world and get them to work for them.”

"If that's the case, without that Tree of Life, the Longevity Club won't be around for long, right?"

Jenny nodded. "Mm."

Ding Ze laughed, "If that's the case, then something's not right about what happened in the past few hours."

"The Longevity Club only sent Brazilian troops, which looked impressive, but in reality, they were just so-so... Moreover, at the same time, they also sent people to Miami, trying to kidnap the Samaritans..."

"This is the behavior that I find most puzzling. Admittedly, the Samaritans are very important, but are they more important than the Tree of Life?"

I don't think so!

"After all, the Samaritan is a man-made product."

"unless……"

"Have you ever considered that there might be more than just one Tree of Life?"

Janet understood and was utterly shocked, exclaiming, "!!!!"

Ding Ze grinned, "The big tree we saw in the [Black Barrier] tribe before is clearly related to this Tree of Life."

"What exactly is the story behind that tree in the Black Barrier tribe?"

"I think that, most likely, over the years, the Longevity Club has discovered the same Tree of Life in other places, or planted some Tree of Life in other places through some means."

“Hiss~~” Janet listened, feeling a little creeped out. “If that’s the case, there are many of these trees all over the world? Damn it, how many old monsters are active out there?”

Ding Ze shook his head. "It's hard to say. Hopefully, Eddie Thomas can get some useful information out of him."

After saying that, Ding Ze lifted his foot and ordered the captain to start the ship and go inside.

It didn't take long before the staff and experts began a thorough inspection of the place.

Ding Ze didn't rest. He lit another cigarette, then took out his satellite phone and called Hannah to find out how she was doing.

Hannah was terrified, but she wasn't hurt.

"Sorry, I couldn't protect you there," Ding Ze sincerely apologized.

Hearing Ding Ze's voice, Hannah immediately felt much more at ease. "It's okay, are you alright?"

“I’m fine,” Ding Ze replied with a smile.

The two chatted for a little while.

“I will send someone over to bring you to Brazil. Get ready and wait for my call,” Ding Ze said.

“Okay,” Hannah replied without hesitation.

Ding Ze called Scarlett again.

Fortunately, Scarlett was only frightened and not injured.

Ding Ze said almost the same thing, offering a few words of reassurance, and then said he would bring Scarlett to Brazil.

Scarlett had no objections.

hang up the phone.

“We’ll be staying in Brazil for a while,” Ding Ze said with a smile to Janet. (End of Chapter)

Chapter 414 Returning to Town, Interrogation Results

Miami.

This is Ding Ze's territory. Although Dongfeng Security's headquarters was destroyed, Dongfeng Security has now taken over Brazil...

Therefore, for a short period of time, no gang in Miami dared to show Ding Ze the slightest disrespect.

Therefore, after receiving Abruzzi's call, it didn't take long for the Russian mafia, namely Peter Gayev's men, to pick up Hannah and then put her on a private plane to fly to Brazil.

Los Angeles.

Having received information that Ding Ze's previous large-scale actions were aimed at conquering Brazil, and that he had indeed succeeded, the local gang families didn't dare to delay and quickly put Scarlett on a private plane to Brazil.

Amazon rainforest.

The investigation into the space where the Tree of Life is located is still ongoing.

Time flew by, and after about two hours, the inspection was basically over.

The test results were basically consistent with Ding Ze's expectations.

There is no evidence to suggest that a large number of people have been active here in recent decades... Has anyone been here? Yes! But really not many.

Therefore, the possibility that the Longevity Club may have other Trees of Life in other places suddenly becomes much more plausible.

"Looks like our road ahead won't be easy," Ding Ze said with a bright smile as he lit a cigarette. "But that's what makes it exciting."

Hearing this and seeing the smile on Ding Ze's face, Janet's eyes lit up and she understood what was going on. "If you want to find the other Trees of Life, this path is more than just difficult."

"That's precisely what makes it exciting," Ding Ze said with a laugh.

Janet shook her head helplessly. What could she say? There was nothing to say. She had chosen the man herself, so she could only spoil him.

"Alright, John's almost here, let's go out," Ding Ze said, exhaling a puff of smoke.

It didn't take too long.

One helicopter after another flew in, and then lowered rope ladders. Ding Ze and his group grabbed the rope ladders and were carried away by the helicopters.

The rivers in the Amazon rainforest are winding and the water conditions are quite complex, making it very time-consuming to travel over land.

If it flies from the sky, it won't take long.

This is not.

It only took about twenty minutes.

The cannibal tribe that the girl Carly had taken them to visit appeared beneath their feet.

Ding Ze didn't hesitate and immediately ordered the helicopter to descend.

Having suffered such a huge loss this time, of course I have to retaliate.

Unfortunately, the situation of this cannibal tribe was just as he had predicted; all the cannibals he had seen that night had disappeared.

Not only that, the entire tribe was burned to the ground, leaving nothing behind.

"These bastards," Ding Ze cursed, somewhat annoyed.

For now, all we can do is curse. There's no other way. After all, this is the Amazon rainforest, and those cannibals have plenty of places to hide. It's impossible to find them in a short time.

There's nothing you can do about it.

Ding Ze had no choice but to lead his employees back up the rope ladder to the helicopter and leave the Amazon rainforest.

The situation in Brazil remains chaotic, and there are still many things that need to be addressed...

It didn't take too long.

Ding Ze and his group returned to the riverside town where they had started.

The town has now been occupied by Ding Ze's men, and there are Dongfeng Security employees and all sorts of weapons everywhere.

CIA Director Eddie Thomas and several of his men also arrived here.

Upon seeing Eddie Thomas, despite being exhausted, Ding Ze immediately strode over. "Chief Thomas, what were the results of the interrogation?"

Eddie Thomas knew how great Ding Ze's losses were this time, so he didn't mince words and replied very solemnly, "The interrogation is still ongoing. That president is indeed a member of the Longevity Club, but he's a low-ranking member."

"According to his account, the Longevity Club is divided into five levels."

“He belongs to level five, which is the lowest level. There are four levels above him. Over the years, he has only come into contact with one level three member at most.”

"That Level 3 member is now the White House Chief of Staff."

As he spoke, Eddie Thomas reached into his pocket, took out a list, and handed it to Ding Ze. "These are the names of all the members he has met."

Ding Ze took it and looked at it.

Good grief, there are only three people on the list. One of them is the White House Chief of Staff, and he has never heard of the other two.

"Who are these other two people?" Ding Ze asked.
