Semua Bab The Charismatic Charlie Wade: Bab 7671 - Bab 7680

Once Charlie got his revenge, he'd rather spend the rest of his time enjoying life like Vera did, rather than seclude himself in endless cultivation. The two lingered by the window for a long time before Charlie sighed softly. "I'm never going into seclusion if I ever succeed in my revenge. I'll live like you, living every day to the fullest." - Meanwhile, Barlin was continuing his expedition hundreds of miles away in the Antarctic wilderness. For the past twenty days, he had the entire Antarctica for anything, but found nothing of value. He had since speculated that the gate for the Flight of Transcendence wasn't actually some kind of mechanism that helped a cultivator achieve it. A more plausible theory was that, after the Degenerate Age of Dharma, the most powerful sect on Earth at the time had brought its cultivators to this continent in a last-ditch effort against the inevitable death of cultivation. That meant some cultivators came here, and succeeded in the Flight of

However, Kohei overlooked one thing in his zeal to produce results.Their research base was already overcompensating. That meant supplies were scarce, and fuel reserves could only meet the needs of small-scale operations. Now, all vehicles were running at full capacity, shuttling back and forth, and with the addition of helicopters, the reserves were rapidly being drained. And when Charlie woke Ruby and Penny to check out the aurora again, the Japanese researchers at Griffin Winter Manor were knee-deep in their intensive exploration.As they arrived beneath the aurora, Charlie once again sacrificed most of his Reiki to acquire sixteen new hand seals, bringing the total sequences of Variocana hand seals to ninety-six.The underlying logic of the Variocana hand seals was simple: each additional hand seal enhanced the overall effect, and this gradual accumulation meant that the initial shortage of just sixteen hand seals was no longer a problem.Charlie felt all confident because if

"Yeah." Charlie smiled. "Nanako has plenty of influence in Japan, and she definitely is privy to anything big Japan is doing in Antarctica."Then, while gesturing for the three ladies to return to the research station, he called Nanako on his satellite phone.Nanako sounded chipper when she answered. "Are you calling me from Antarctica right now, Mr. Wade?""Yes," Charlie smiled. "We're just walking back under the aurora.""How romantic," Nanako sighed. "Is there something you need?"Charlie said bluntly, "I need you to personally look into this so-called largest-ever Antarctic expedition by Japan. Ideally, if you can figure out what they are doing here, specifically."Nanako quickly replied, "No problem. I'll have someone look into it right away." The Ito family's influence in Japan was no less than the Samsung chaebols' influence in South Korea. They wielded a significant influence not only in the private and financial spheres but also across various government departments, e

His tone determined, Charlie once again refused, "We're extremely isolated and the environment is at best hostile. Help won't arrive in time if anyone gets hurt—I'll at least have peace of mind if Ms. Chain and Ms. Singer are watching you."Seeing that he was dead set, Vera nodded. "Just be careful."Nanako soon provided Charlie with the coordinates of the stranded ship, which was around 180 miles from Charlie's position. While it was past the shoreline in the summer, the sea had since frozen over, so he could just walk.Sure, the coastal area was flat, and snow tractors would be quicker, taking at most a five-hour journey, but it was big and loud, making him easily detectable.As such, Charlie decided to drive and stop around thirty miles out, and then proceed on foot.With that, he picked one of the lighter snow tractors and sped out of the Norway research base, stopping and turning off the lights in the snow as planned.At the same time, he focused his Reiki on his soles—not e

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
