I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World (Web Novel)

The attackers were Poisonous Arrow mercenaries, belonging to the Arrow Military registered in Madagascar.

While on this topic, the company certainly had previous conflicts with Xin. Country F had hired its military operations to take military action against Xin in an open attempt to kidnap Jiang Chen. Although the team dispatched to Coro Island was wiped out on the island, Jiang Chen later dismembered the reckless nation through Moro’s Liberation Movement, but for this military company in Africa, he had never been too concerned about them.

This time, they were employed by the Freemasonry and attacked Jiang Chen and the others in Antarctica. Five Sea Lions were killed and the remaining five were also suffered varying degrees of injuries. However, the blood debt was already paid.

After interrogating information from several prisoners with the truth serum, Jiang Chen ended their misery.

After cleaning up the electronic equipment on the polar expedition vessel with EMP and eliminating the possibility of being positioned, Jiang Chen set the sail of the ship to the far sea. After setting down the speedboat and installing explosives on the deck to sink the ship, he went back to the polar vehicle. Then he drove back to the camp.

With the questions from the head of the research team on the casualties of the Sea Lions Special Forces, Jiang Chen did not make any response but merely stated that they had encountered a storm.

Although the wounds on Garrett and the others didn’t look like hail caused them…

After returning to the Antarctic Gull Station, Jiang Chen returned directly to the boat and locked himself in his own room.

Freemasonry, Rothschild, Arrow, the Golden Apple, one gram of antimatter… All these words entangled. He needed time to sort out these intelligences and think about future countermeasures.

“Freemasonry?” Jiang Chen clutched the ring in his hand and observed the pattern above.

The ring was taken from Griffin’s hand, with two opposite “V” characters and a capital “G” in the middle. Just looking at this pattern, Jiang Chen couldn’t find any clues at all, so he thought it must be the symbol of the Freemasonry.

Shaking his head, Jiang Chen put the ring aside.

What was certain was that there must be a connection between Rothschild and the Freemasonry, and it was very likely that Rothschild had told the Freemasons the purpose of his trip. This could be deduced from Griffin’s own words.

At this time, knocking filled the room.

“Who is it?”

“It’s me, Marshall.” Marshall’s voice came from the other side of the door.

“Come in. The door is not locked.”

Opening the door, Marshall entered the room. He then nervously looked at Jiang Chen.

Anyone would be nervous, especially seeing the wounded special forces and the five dead bodies that were put into body bags, and he had no clue what these people had done after being out for nearly 24 hours.

“Are you looking for me?”

Jiang Chen looked at Marshall and he read the nervousness from his pupils.

However, Jiang Chen didn’t mind. He revealed a comforting smile. After a pause, he said in a mild tone, “Prepare. We’ll leave for Coro Island in five hours.”

With a short pause, Marshall then asked.

“What about the research team?”

“Carry on,” said Jiang Chen.

The goal of the Freemasonry was only him. There was no reason to attack the station and make international headlines. If he stayed there, it would bring danger to the people of the station. The only thing he had to do now was to return to Xin as soon as possible. Only there could he be considered absolutely safe.

“But…”

Although there were many questions to be asked, Marshall’s intuition told that it was better not to say anything superfluous at this time. The more he knew, the more dangerous it would be. The movies always said this.

“…Yes.”

All his questions came out as a single word. Marshall nodded and left the room.

The next morning, Pathfinder was ready to make its return.

After that happened, the people of the research team were deeply disturbed. This uneasiness stemmed from the fear of the unknown. They did not know what Jiang Chen encountered in the Antarctic hinterland, nor were they sure if they would encounter it themselves.

After some thought, Jiang Chen decided to order a temporary evacuation of the station.

Although the Freemasonry had no reason to make use of the ordinary scientific researchers, since they were planning to explore the fortress in the Antarctic hinterland, they were bound to land at Point Goodenough. The two sides still had a chance to meet.

Just over a month from June, the polar night would make the Antarctic extremely cold and the climate there would no longer be suitable for scientific research. The evacuation would only be a month or so earlier than the planned end date.

After locking the device, He Gaoyang boarded the polar expedition ship at last. Captain Marshall pulled up the anchor chain and ordered the Pathfinder to set sail to end the short trip to the South Pole ahead of schedule. As for what kind of danger he had encountered in Antarctica, Jiang Chen’s explanation was that he had encountered heavily armed kidnappers. Those people knew that he would go to Antarctica, so they deliberately waited for him in the South Pole…

Very far-fetched reason.

He didn’t know whether such explanations would be convincing, but it at least could reduce unnecessary speculation.

After returning, he would order people to sign a confidentiality agreement with the members of the research team and the crews of the Pathfinder.

The two-week voyage was very long, but it was also very peaceful. Jiang Chen had originally thought that he would be chased by the Freemasonry, but other than a few storms, they did not encounter any trouble.

Griffin’s ship had sunk and the Freemasonry didn’t even know that Jiang Chen and the others had left the South Pole. When they finally find out about Griffin’s death, it would be two weeks later. Searching for the sinking polar expedition vessel may take several days or even months depending on their luck.

Even if they learned through intelligence analysis that Jiang Chen had left Antarctica, they would have to face two choices – whether to search for Jiang Chen in the Pacific Ocean or to devote all their energy in investigating the fortress in the Antarctic hinterland.

But any normal person would not choose the former, because it would almost be impossible to complete the task. Even if satellites were used, it is would an easy task to locate a research vessel that was only 100 meters long on the vast sea. But if they choose the latter, they would be destined to find nothing.

The suitcase containing antimatter had been taken away by Jiang Chen. Other than the stacks of equipment that could directly enter the museum, only the “radio station” that could communicate with the Remnants of the Void remained.

Jiang Chen did not take the “radio station” away. The “specter” clearly told him that they do not have enough energy to interfere in the more distant future. And that 1 gram of anti-matter was the ultimate help they could give to the people of B World Line.

After removing some of the parts, he left the basement.

Leaving the “radio station” there could, on the contrary, confuse the Freemasonry and deprive them of some of their energy that would be spent on the machine that had already lost its functionality.

However, compared to the troubles from them, Jiang Chen cared more about what he received from the void.

The antimatter weighing about one gram may be their hope…
