LOGINMerlin read through the translated conversion and quickly noticed certain points that should be taken notice.The Japanese research crew was searching in four different teams with different callsigns. Moreover, team one to three were ground teams, while team four was airborne.While that meant they were searching far and wide for something, there were plenty of mentions of a hidden city, while confirming through comms if the radar detected anything under the ice.As he promptly fed Charlie the information, Charlie quickly pieced together everything and realized that they were scanning the ice caps for a city under the ice.Logically speaking, these ice caps formed long before human civilization. Even with modern technology, humans can't build a subterranean city beneath the ice caps just yet, so that was even less likely for the ancients.Charlie was hence convinced that the ancients were most likely just going to die here without sufficient equipment and supplies… when he suddenl
Everyone working on this research vessel was an academic.In fact, Heiji himself didn't merely have professional certifications in nautical technology, but also in maritime electrical engineering—that meant he had a thorough understanding of all equipment on the ship.Moreover, Charlie's request wasn't all that difficult. They simply had to remove the standard communication module from the transport vehicle, install a Starlink system and connect it to the designated IP.And for Heiji, that was a walk in the park.So, when the fuel truck arrived, Heiji took advantage of the two-hour wait for fuel delivery by sending the crew away and modifying the module accordingly.The vehicle's GPS module was itself a simple, plug-and-play unit. Once turned on, it swiftly searched for GPS satellites, acquiring coordinates and then pushing the real-time coordinates to the data interface five times per second.Any device in the car that needed GPS coordinates could directly tap into this data int
Charlie then remembered. "That reminds me. When will personnel from the research base come back?"Heiji thought about it. "There is a fuel transport team that comes and goes, maybe a couple of days to move fuel. They should arrive in another two or three hours."The research station's fuel consumption was enormous. Even during the Antarctic summer, their research station had burned through their reserves to this degree. In fact, despite having such a big crew, the research team members were never this busy either.Currently, almost all vehicles and helicopters were operating continuously outdoors. Radar scanning required a large amount of electricity, so the internal combustion engines on these vehicles and aircraft consumed an additional amount of fuel for power.In the Antarctic winter, the Japanese research helicopters were equipped with ice radar and consumed approximately two tons of fuel per hour—truly fuel guzzlers.And to ensure operations continued without interruption, t
To Charlie's knowledge, the only benefit the South Pole had for cultivators was to stay away from the hustle and bustle of modern society—nothing else.Moreover, even if it kept them free from the mundane, there were no rare herbs or natural treasures to help, be it for cultivation or for making pills.In fact, Charlie himself wouldn't be here if he weren't chasing after the aurora hand seals.However, since the elder of the Qing Eliminating Society had come in person and taken the entire Japanese expedition team as his slaves, he must be searching for some valuable treasure unknown to Charlie. For a moment, Charlie instinctively felt a surge of excitement. If there were truly something valuable in Antarctica, wouldn't it be a huge windfall if he could find it before the Qing Eliminating Society elder? But Charlie stopped himself, as he knew his limits. Even with Ruby and Penny combined, the three of them were no match for the elder of the Qing Eliminating Society. In fact,
Moreover, considering that the ship wasn't meant to be used as the base of operations, it was likely that the elder wouldn't return here personally, and there was no risk of being discovered.Hence, Charlie quickly made up his mind to use a stronger burst of Reiki to clear Heiji's mind, and then mind-bend him again.Once the mindbending took effect, Charlie asked, "What's the name of the person who told you to remain here?""The Lord of the Winter Manor," Heiji promptly replied."The Lord of the Winter Manor?"Charlie was left baffled, but tapped into his phone to bring up a photo of the Qing Eliminating Society elder they had lost track of, and showed it to Heiji. "Is he this man?"Heiji promptly nodded. "Yes, that's him."His response didn't surprise Charlie at all. "Where is he now?""The Griffin Winter Manor, most likely," Heiji replied.Charlie raised a brow. "The Griffin Winter Manor? Where is it?"Since Barlin styled himself as the Lord of the Winter Manor, he treated
While Heiji started singing at the top of his lungs along with the song, he suddenly noticed a figure beside him, and couldn't move at all before he knew it.Seeing Charlie, he was obviously horrified!For Charlie's part, he had no idea if Heiji knew Oskian, but considering that the research crew would have at least attended college and therefore know English, he prepared to project his Reiki and mind-bend the Japanese man.However, Charlie just reached into Heiji's mind when he noticed the other strand of Reiki that was already bending the man's mind.Charlie was at once wary—another cultivator, here, in the Antarctic?!This had to be the last of the Three Elders they were tracking!The last report on his whereabouts was in Ushuaia, and Charlie was worried if the man was on his trail, only for Earthnet to lose track of him.Naturally, he had no idea that Barlin stopped using public transport to reach the Antarctic, instead taking a fishing boat, waiting along the Japanese resea
Aurous Hill old town district.The mansion that Charlie shared with his parents when he was young now seemed brand new.Helen had put a lot of effort into renovating and rebuilding the mansion bit by bit. Although everything looked the same as it did back then, it seemed that time had been turned back
Eliam nodded and said, “Your father knew about the existence of the Hubbert Battalion. He mentioned in the email that someone saw a male martial artist with the last name Colter and a female martial artist with the last name Maine. They are a couple and happen to have the same last names as my paren
Ten minutes later, the old lady used a scoop of well water to extinguish the firewood in the stove and walked out of the house with Charlie, Isaac, and Jeremy. The old lady looked at the dilapidated door of the house with some reluctance. She knew that she would never come back again after leaving t
When Caden saw that Charlie was about to leave, he subconsciously begged, “Master Wade, don’t be in a hurry to leave! Master Wade, I know that I was wrong now. Please give me another chance to make up for my mistake!”Charlie smiled and said, “Look at what you’re saying! What’s wrong with you obeying
