After they waited a while, the ships approached them.

The two ships were very close together.

Everyone on each other's decks could see each other clearly.

Fuck shouted to the people on deck, "It's me...it's me...it's Fuck!"

A short while later, two people got off the boat opposite them and boarded a small boat.

After the small boat approached, a rope ladder was lowered to allow them to board.

The person who boarded the ship was a young man about the same age as Fak.

"Fuck, I thought you were dead! We got word that the ship that was supposed to pick you up had been captured by pirates. We couldn't approach this area rashly, so I could only wait from afar... hoping to run into you... Now it seems there was still a chance... and we really did run into you..."

Judging from his words and actions, this young man was more lively than Fuck.

Fak burst out laughing at the young man in front of him: "Duru, thank you so much for coming, thank you so much... If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know where to start..."

The young man named Duru smiled and said to Fak, "I heard the news... and I knew you were a smart man. Even though your contact was captured, you still tried your best to get out. I figured you wouldn't know where I was after you got out... so I decided to try my luck beforehand... It's only right... We're actually one team. If you live, we live. If you fail the mission, we'll die too..."

After hearing Duru's words, Fak gave a wry smile, understanding the implication.

"Duru, let me introduce you. This is Agent Yin, the person we invited and are escorting... We owe her a great deal for her help and cooperation this time; otherwise, we probably wouldn't have been able to complete this mission, and we would all be dead..."

This guy was very direct. The lively Duru said directly to Yin Pan'er, "Agent Yin, thank you... You're not only beautiful, but also kind..."

Yin Pan'er was not displeased after reading Du Lu's words.

Because while Tru's words sounded flippant, it was clear she was just offering a compliment...

Then Yin Pan'er said to Duru, "By the way, Duru, judging from your appearance, you seem to know each other... Why don't you tell Fak your direct destination? That way, even if one link in the chain goes wrong, it won't prevent you from failing the mission, right?"

After listening to Yin Pan'er's words, Du Lu gave a wry smile: "Agent Yin, you don't understand. When we accept a mission, we don't know who our predecessors and successors are. I only realized it was him just now after I saw clearly that it was Fak. Moreover, we have very strict rules; what shouldn't be said cannot be said..."

Fak nodded: "That's right, I just found out too... but it's still good news..."

Duru asked Fak, "Can we set off now?"

Fak looked at Yin Pan'er.

Upon hearing this, Yin Pan'er smiled and said, "Of course...I came here to follow you, didn't I?"

Duru then told them to pack up, as they needed to board Duru's ship.

They went straight to their boat after launching the small boat.

Their ship naturally returned.

Duru's ship was much faster than theirs.

Xiao Ce and Yin Pan'er have already gone back to rest.

Duru and Fak were chatting, and they seemed to have a good relationship.

Seeing Xiao Ce's relaxed expression, Yin Pan'er said, "Your Highness, why do you look so relaxed and not nervous at all?"

Xiao Ce lay down on the small bed in the cabin, resting his head against the window. Looking outside, he said to Yin Pan'er, "Don't be nervous, we've seen it all..."

Seeing Xiao Ce's expression, Yin Pan'er quickly asked, "Your Highness, have you never been nervous?"

Upon hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce exclaimed in surprise, "Of course not... I'm a person, not a robot... How could I never be nervous..."

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er asked curiously, "When do you get nervous?"

Xiao Ce pondered for a moment, then said to Yin Pan'er, "It was when I was explaining things to you earlier, I was really nervous..."

Yin Pan'er was surprised that it was because of this, and her heart warmed.

Then she said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness... what are you so nervous about? Are you worried that I actually intend to harm you..."

Xiao Ce nodded with a smile, not denying it, and said with a smile, "That's right, that's exactly what I was worried about... I was actually afraid that you really came to harm me..."

Just then, Yin Pan'er said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, do you think it would harm you?"

Xiao Ce, both amused and exasperated, said to Yin Pan'er, "It's precisely because I felt you wouldn't harm me that I was a little worried... Actually, when you have no hope, you won't be disappointed... You'll only be disappointed when you have hope..."

Yin Pan'er nodded in complete agreement upon hearing this.

Xiao Ce said to Yin Pan'er, "Don't worry about this. Just say what I told you... Their attention will definitely not be on you, but on Frank and Boudica... No one will expect that Mr. Ce, who is standing next to Boudica, is right next to you at this moment..."

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er smiled and nodded, "That's true... The most dangerous place is actually the safest place, isn't it..."

Xiao Ce nodded after listening to Yin Pan'er's words.

They then sailed on the vast ocean for a long time.

Anyway, Xiao Ce had already lost his sense of direction.

Thankfully, he inexplicably stopped getting seasick; otherwise, this trip would have truly been the death of him...

After traveling for about two days, they changed to another ship.

That was goodbye to Duru, but Fak still followed him...

The reason is simple: Fak's task is to take Yin Pan'er to the designated location.

During this period, they changed ships at several stages.

They all need Fak to be there; otherwise, even if Pan'er came, they just wouldn't accept her...

So after arriving at several ships, Da Lei and Xiao Yue were both very careful to remember the route.

But after going around in circles a few times, the two of them were completely dumbfounded.

After all, in this vast ocean, without the aid of tools...

Without any landmarks, it didn't take long before I lost my bearings...

When they reached the last ship, Fak came over and reminded them that this should be the last ship.

Next time they will be able to see their guild ship.

Sure enough, as night fell, they saw a giant ship in the dark night sky.

The giant ship was lit up with many lights, making it look very impressive from a distance.

They used the same method to arrange various colored lights on their ship... after the arrangement was complete.

The giant ship then lowered several small boats to pick them up.

I thought I would have to waste some time explaining to get Xiao Ce and Da Lei to bring them, these 'servants,' up with them.

However, the people who disembarked from the giant ship only checked their personal belongings.

They were put to safekeeping the firearms, and that was all; they were taken directly onto the giant ship.

This giant ship was the largest ancient vessel they had ever seen.

Even the large ship that Yin Pan'er had seen, which belonged to Ed White, paled in comparison to this behemoth...

Of course, in Xiao Ce's view, this ship was nothing special.

After all, he had actually seen those real giant ships.

After boarding the ship, they were first taken to a cabin lounge.

They were then told not to go out, and that food and drinks would be delivered to their door.

This lounge is quite spacious and offers a sea view.

Fak, however, did not go with them.

After Yin Pan'er boarded the ship, she said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, do you think the people from that guild have arrived yet?"

Xiao Ce nodded, then said to Yin Pan'er, "This giant ship should belong to the people from that headquarters..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er smiled and then said, "Then why won't you see us?"

Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Look at the people on the ship, those guards all dressed the same, it's obvious we're the first..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er nodded: "So, we still need to wait?"

Xiao Ce nodded: "Besides, if your East Asia association president were here, he would definitely come to see you..."

Yin Pan'er nodded: "However, since the people from the headquarters are coming to pick me up now, they definitely won't let Ed White see me..."

Xiao Ce nodded: "I don't know if Fak will come back."

Yin Pan'er said with a smile, "If Fak comes back, we should know what's going on."

...

On the other side, Fak was led to a room.

Inside the room was a burly old man wearing a mask.

Upon seeing Fak approach, Fak immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Fourth Cardinal Councilor..."

There are four adults in these associations, who call themselves the Privy Councilors.

People in their community have a habit of calling them "Presidential Councilors," but the first one is usually called "Grand Presidential Councilor."

The second is the Second Councilor, and so on, until the last one is the Fourth Councilor.

Although this person looks very old with a full head of white hair, he is actually ranked last among the four.

The Grand Councilor, however, is the youngest among these people.

Hearing Fak kneel in obeisance, the Fourth Cardinal said to Fak, "The British Empire is currently in complete chaos, yet you managed to bring people here unharmed. You've done very well... What's your name...?"

Although the Fourth Pivot was praising him, his deep voice sounded completely devoid of any emotional change.

Fak respectfully addressed the Fourth Councilor, saying, "Reporting to the Fourth Councilor, my name is Fak."

After hearing Fak's words, the fourth councilor looked somewhat surprised: "Is your father Zos?"

Fak was somewhat surprised that the Fourth Cardinal knew about his father.

Because his father had been dead for over five years, in Fak's eyes, this Fourth Cardinal was like a distant, unattainable star... while his father was just a speck of dust in the earth. The fact that this Fourth Cardinal knew his father was truly astonishing...

"Fourth Grand Master is right, my father's name is Zhuosi."

The Fourth Pivot nodded to Fak: "Very good, your father was a capable man! It seems you have inherited his excellent genes..."

Fak said to the Fourth Cardinal, "You flatter me, Fourth Cardinal... This time, I was just very lucky."

The Fourth Pivot said to Fak, "Tell me about your experience on this trip."

Fak nodded respectfully to the Fourth Cardinal: "As you command, Fourth Cardinal. This time, my journey went very smoothly..."

Fak then recounted the whole story, including how Yin Pan'er initially suspected his identity.

Later, he recounted almost all of those stories about playing the victim.

At first, Fak asked Yin Pan'er if she wanted to make some changes, but Yin Pan'er meant to say it exactly as it was...

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Fak told the truth.

Of course, she would never tell him anything bad about the crickets being exposed to sunlight.

"So, Fourth Cardinal, we were able to get out this time thanks to Acting Director Yin's trust and help... So, actually, I didn't do anything special; I just acted as a liaison..."

After listening to Fak's words, the Fourth Pivot nodded and then said, "It was your sincerity that moved Agent Yin. Wasn't Agent Yin unwilling to come at first?"

When Fak heard the Fourth Pivot say this, he looked embarrassed and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Just then, the Fourth Cardinal continued to ask, "Did you tell them about your poisoning?"

Fak could tell that although the Fourth Cardinal's words were calm, there was clearly a hint of coldness in them...

"No, I wasn't telling the truth. I only said that the person who gave us the mission... would give us poison... I didn't say anything else..."

The Fourth Pivot said calmly, "Don't worry... and don't be nervous. I'm just asking you a question."
