Chapter 1472 Arriving at Ghost Town

Eugene frowned. That place was located on the border between Mastar and another

country, Jasnye. In terms of warfare, such a place was easy to defend and difficult to

attack. If the kidnappers brought the children and Professor Gedding here, it was very

likely that they were the target of this kidnapping.

But who could have kidnapped them?

If the kidnappers were only after the children and Professor Gedding, why would they also

take Jewel?

At the thought of Jewel being taken away, Eugene naturally thought of the Double Dragon

Court.

But this place...

He looked at Olivia and asked, "Olivia, do you know what connection this place has with

the Double Dragon Court?"

Olivia shook her head. "I haven't heard of any connection between Double Dragon Court

and the Ghost Town. Do you suspect the Double Dragon Court is behind this?"

Eugene explained, "Not only were the children and Professor Gedding kidnapped, but

Jewel as well. If they're after your master's research, why would they take Jewel? My

intuition tells me that it is related to the Double Dragon Court."

After listening to that, Olivia fell into deep thought. It was indeed possible.

She nodded and concurred, "Even if Double Dragon Court isn't behind this, they might be

cooperating with certain government officials to execute this plan, but that would make

things even more troublesome. Master's research has always been world-leading, and

besides the honor they bring, to put it bluntly, they are unlimited sources of wealth."

Also sensing the situation was becoming more complicated, Eugene asked, "I might be

more confident in settling this matter if only Double Dragon Court is involved. But things

would be more complicated if other government officials were involved. Doesn't the

country support Mr. Gedding's research?"

She explained, "The Mastar government does support Master's research, or else how could

he have remained undiscovered for over twenty years?"

He said, "Then, kidnapping Mr. Gedding is undoubtedly the other government official's way

of declaring war against Mastar. Let's go and check the situation. We can seek help from

the local authorities if necessary."

After a sigh, Olivia elaborated, "The local authorities won't help for free either. My master's

research still belongs to him. If we want to ask them for help, they won't declare war

against other government officials unless my master is willing to give this research to

them."

Eugene agreed, "Okay, let's head over and check out the situation. In this situation, Mr.

Gedding can't do whatever he wants. If we don't compromise with the local authorities, we

will have to compromise with the authorities who kidnapped him."

Olivia didn't say anything. In fact, she didn't know what to say. Her heart felt like it was

being squeezed, making her feel suffocated.

The thing her master had been worried about had finally happened.

To her, asking her master to give up his research was nothing. However, she was afraid

they would conduct experiments on the children if they found out this research was

unsuccessful. The aftermath would be unfathomable.

After a six-hour flight, they finally arrived at Ghost Town after dawn.

But as soon as they got off the plane, the people there had already noticed them.

"Stop!" Several sniper rifles were aimed at them.

Eugene, Olivia, and the other bodyguards stood still, not daring to move. Not only because

they had guns pointed at them but also because someone was using a gun to threaten

Professor Gedding.

"Master—"

Hector sighed helplessly. The inevitable had finally come. "I'm fine."

Olivia felt even more guilty inside. How could he be fine?

He wouldn't have been taken away if he hadn't stayed at the clinic to save the children.

Also, they wouldn't have been discovered if the children were all in the research institute.

It was all their fault.

They insisted on bringing the children with them, which led to today's situation.

Ghost Town was like the kind of easily defensible and hard-to-attack castle from the past.

Moreover, this place was located on the border, which meant it was a lawless territory.

That was why these people were so arrogant.

They were outside the town entrance with an open area where planes could land and

cannons could stand.

But there would be no way to enter the town once the entrance was closed.

If it weren't during war times, the soldiers wouldn't have killed everyone here just to

occupy this easily defensible small town.

People standing on top could overlook their every move.

However, technological advancements had made it possible to break through this place,

but they would have to use heavy weapons. Not to mention that they were unlikely to

have those; even if they did, there were still hostages inside, so how would they dare to

launch a strong attack?
