Novel Full Chapter 78: Trident No. 16!
“Minister Motley, if you do not believe me, you can board the freighter with me and see if any of our people will sneak onto the island.”
Edward wasn’t afraid of what Motley would say.
After all, that was the truth.
You can think whatever you want.
Motley: “…”
Naturally, the British had thought of this before.
Judging by America’s track record, they had guessed that they would definitely follow them to the island to deliver the materials.
However, they never expected the Americans to act out of their expectations.
This doesn’t seem like your style!
Motley kept this thought to himself and remained silent.
However, he was skeptical.
He planned to go with them.
Although Motley only brought a few people this time, they were all elites.
He did not believe that anyone could slip past their eyes.
If no one from the United States truly went, then he had nothing to say.
After all, this was a big matter, and Raymond was the most important.
..
Each country continued mulling over the situation while the United States constantly loaded materials.
Meanwhile, Raymond was taking a rare break.
Even when he was resting, he did not forget what he needed to do.
He was holding a semiconductor book. Behind him was Kim Hee-sun massaging his back and beside him was Gayle Gadot feeding him some fruit.
Even though Raymond did not say a word, everyone knew that he was enjoying it.
Previously, Raymond flipped books like it was a flipbook animation.
But this time, he was slowly reading the book. He took a few minutes to finish a page.
There were even moments where he seemed to have forgotten something and even flipped back to read it again.
“It’s over, it’s over. The Thunder God’s fire is out!”
“This is what a man should do!”
“It’s a blessing for all! Finally! I’m so angry!”
“It’s the Thunder God! If it was that f*cking Japanese guy, he would probably be f*cking dead by now!”
“Baka! Did our country offend you? Are you trying to pick a fight now?”
“He’s angry! Haha, he’s angry, he’s angry!”
“By the way, look carefully, what book is Thunder God Reading? Why can’t he understand it!”
“Speaking of which, I’m not sleepy anymore! It’s a book about semiconductors and chips…”
“Hmm, actually, I’ve wanted to ask this for a long time. Doesn’t a space battleship need a CPU? Looks like Thunder God has a plan!”
“However, the problem with this chip is not that simple. From what I know, the chip industry…”
“Forget it! Thunder God has researched his way through every hurdle every time…”
“Eh, alright. I’ll drop it. Thunder God is awesome, Thunder God can do anything, hooray!”
“Motherf*cker, do you know how to speak? Don’t give half-*ssed sentences like that! Would it kill you to say it?!”
The night passed quickly.
Not long after Raymond woke up, Tuesday sent him a message.
“Sir, a huge cargo ship is heading towards the island. According to the information I received and the satellite’s remote sensing, it is expected to arrive on the island in an hour and a half.”
“Mm. Take it and keep it simple. Don’t expose too much of yourself.”
“Yes, sir.”
Edward had taken great pains.
He calculated the weather and wind direction before 10.
Only then did he give it a reasonable boost in speed.
Edward and Motley carefully wrapped up and got off the ship.
In order not to be discovered by Raymond, it was considered hard work for them.
However, they did not know that Raymond already knew.
Moreover, this freighter had been a trap set by Raymond.
Most importantly, the billions of people outside the island would remain unaware.
They all believed that Raymond was still in the dark.
This was actually the optimal situation for Raymond.
Although it was Raymond’s first time doing such a thing, he was able to do it with ease.
‘Let them gift be again in a few days! In any case, once the gifting starts, more gifts would become less awkward. Maybe three or four times isn’t a big deal!’
Having tasted the sweetness, Raymond immediately thought of something new.
He needed a lot of things. If it was possible, he hoped that he could get all the foundations of the world’s civilizations.
After all, once a meteorite struck, there would be nothing left on the planet.
It was better to take it all in one go.
‘Or, I can make weapons first and force them to hand it over…’
‘The protective shield generator is almost done. I can make it today if all goes well. I don’t know how well it’ll actually perform, though…’
Once the protective shield generator proved itself to be the real thing, Raymond could move on with his plans.
Moreover, the matter of the shield generator was only known to Raymond and Tuesday. Even Kim Hee-sun and Gayle Gadot had been kept out of the loop.
After breakfast, the freighter had almost arrived.
Multiple cameras constantly took turns filming Raymond, giving several camera angles.
The audience in the live broadcast room watched Raymond driving, not knowing why.
“Where is Thunder God going?”
“Looks like he’s going to the beach.”
“Is he going to check on the progress of the construction? Won’t Tuesday just tell him?”
“What if Thunder God is the type who’s only satisfied with what he sees with his own eyes?”
“That’s not right! Look, there’s a cargo ship on the beach…”
“F*ck, I know this ship! Isn’t that Trident 16? Why Is it here?”
“Who are you? How do you know everything?!”
“It seems like a cargo ship…”
“How fortunate does the Thunder God have to be to have a cargo ship turn up out of nowhere?”
“This… could it be arranged by the program team? !”
“No way! The program team is so rich?”
“No way, no way, this cargo ship can’t have everything that the Thunder God needs, right?!”
“If this was really arranged by the program team, then it might be possible…”
“If it’s really arranged by the program team, then it’ll be fun. Then, when the Thunder God sees all the treasure he needs, would he suspect anything?”
“Now that you mention it, I’m suddenly interested.”
Under Tuesday’s control, a group of robots stopped the cargo ship.
They then moved the cargo ship to the dock.
The giant gantry crane immediately began to operate.
However, compared to the robots, the efficiency of the gantry crane was much slower.
“Sir, this is a box of titanium ore…”
“This box is pig iron…”
“This box is aluminum…”
Listening to Tuesday’s report, Raymond’s expression changed a few times.
The audience watching the live broadcast felt that it was too interesting.
However, they did not know that this was all Raymond putting on an act.
After some time, Raymond grew tired of the facade.
Just as he was about to leave, a new situation was reported to him on Tuesday.
“Sir, there’s a Gundam model here. Do you need to remove it?”
“Gundam?”
Although Raymond grew up in the slums, he had seen posters of Gundams.
After an hour, he had always hoped that he could have a Gundam.
Now, I can build one myself, that’s even better…
