Chapter 861 Barbecue
The more peaceful the time is, the more valuable human lives were. Moreover, Raphael's guards were well-trained.
Raphael highly valued his subordinates, and as a testament to that, he offered them compensation money three
times the market price. This generous gesture fostered unwavering loyalty among his subordinates, and they never
had any complaints.
However, no matter how wealthy he was, he couldn't let his subordinates die. This was why he had traveled all the
way to Pollerton to meet Donald. He was confident that Donald could solve any problem in the world.
“Very well, then. I understand what happened, and I have only one night off. You'll send me home yourself
tomorrow at nine in the morning?”
“Sure, of course!” Raphael was elated as Donald had agreed to his request.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe brought Donald to the top floor of the restaurant to the helicopter that had been waiting there for a long time.
They boarded the helicopter and flew to the spirit stone mine where the explosion happened.
Ferwick Island was situated in the Patos Ocean, yet it remained absent from any map. When the helicopter landed
on the base of the island, Donald noticed two teams of people directing their gazes at him.
“Who are they?” Donald asked, realizing that they wore different uniforms.
“The guards from the Suarez family and the Cox family. They caught wind of the trouble here and arrived to seize
my business from me.”
“What do you mean?”
Raphael let out a deep sigh and explained, “Spirit stone mines are scarce resources, so obtaining the rights to mine
took a considerable amount of time for me. Tragically, before I made any progress, fifty men lost their lives here.
This incident displeased the committee responsible for approving my mining permit. They sent both the Suarez
family and the Cox family here to compete fairly. The one who can resolve the issue will rightfully claim ownership
of this island.”
No wonder Raphael insisted on my help. If he couldn't solve the problem today, he would lose the rights to the spirit
stone mine.
“Donald, I invested three billion into this mine. You need to help me get my capital back.”
Donald shot him a look. “Treat me to a barbecue.”
“Sure! I'll treat you to ten barbecues!”
After giving Raphael a reassuring look, Donald headed to the base, straight to what was left of the spirit stone mine.
As Donald departed, both the teams from the Suarez family and the Cox family also left simultaneously. Their
captains shamelessly inched closer to Donald, trying to get his attention.
“Hey, did Raphael hire you to help him out? I'm Channing Suarez. What's your name?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDonald looked at Channing, realizing that the latter was a Novem Stella Warrior in the divine stage. The other one
could be more capable than Channing. It was clear that both families had sent their aces in order to gain the rights
to this spirit stone mine.
“Donald Campbell.”
“Hello, Mr. Campbell,” the other man greeted Donald cheerfully. “I'm Otto Cox, the captain of the Cox family's
team. While we may be rivals, I can't help but worry about your well-being. Didn't Raphael warn you about the high
radiation levels in the spirit stone mine? If you enter without proper protection, you won't last long and will likely
end up being carried out on a stretcher.”
Donald glanced at Otto and responded, “I know, but I don't need that.” With that, he strode ahead, leaving them
both behind.
Channing and Otto were caught off guard. He doesn't need that? Even if he's a high-level Stella Warrior, that
doesn't mean he's immune to radiation, right?
“Otto, it looks like Campbell isn't easy to persuade.”
Otto let out an icy snort as he put on his mask. “If that's the case, we'll make sure he dies inside there.”
