Known as the “Mad Dog” of the world, Dorzania was a small but militarily powerful nation. They were


    ambitious and brutal.


    They never hesitated to use force to get what they wanted, whether it was economics, wealth,


    resources, or territory.


    On the frontier of Dorzania, there was an ind called Cloudreach Isle that was inhabited by thousands


    of inders. These inders were the elite spies of various countries who had been. trained by the


    Nightshade n.


    Though considered a secret organization, the Nightshade n had the Dorzania government as its


    backbone.


    The sunset on Cloudreach Isle was magnificent. After the speedboat docked, two armed men. helped


    M ashore. Shortly after, the speedboat took off again. M was blindfolded as she meekly followed


    them ashore.


    After crossing a stretch of beach andnd, M was taken for a ten–minute ride in a sightseeing car


    before her blindfold was taken off.


    She found herself standing in a spacious house. The house was decorated in a unique way that


    reflected the cultural characteristics of Dorzania.


    She rubbed her eyes and scanned the room. There were four armed men standing guard in the four


    corners of the room, ring at her in a threatening manner.


    Ss Vaughn, the leader of the Nightshade n, was sitting on a bed in front of her. He was a stocky


    man of about 60 years old.


    Scrumptious food and winey on the bed tray in front of him. He raised an eyebrow at M, then


    casually took a sip of wine and chewed on a piece of beef jerky. He asked, “Where did you get that?”


    It wasn’t until M handed them a small portion of hydronium that they noticed her and took her to the


    Nightshadeir. M responded in a chilling tone, “I want to see Nathan. I won’t say a word if I don’t get


    to see him.”


    Ss remained indifferent as he enjoyed his food and drink at a leisurely pace. Hepletely ignored


    M. “I don’t know him. I’ve never seen him before.”


    “Then, I’ll say nothing,” M answered, proud and defiant.


    “Aren’t you afraid to die?” Ss smirked.


    M adopted a fearless stance. “I never intended to leave alive since I came here. Bring Nathan if you


    want to know M Winkler’s whereabouts. I must see him.”

    “I told you. I’ve never seen him before.” Ss angrily mmed down the beef jerky he held and fixed


    M with his icy, fierce gaze.


    M’s heart raced with fear. Her legs trembled, and her back was soaked with sweat.


    She had grown up in a sheltered environment, surrounded by nothing but study and research.


    She had never been in a situation like this in her life. She felt sheer terror as she faced these terrorists


    alone.


    Yet, she tried to keep herposure. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. “Don’t you want the


    hydronium? Don’t you want to find out where M Winkler is?”


    Ss‘ features twisted menacingly as he stressed each word. “Do you want to be killed immediately?”


    M remained silent. Her stare was unwavering. This was the wildest thing that she had ever done in


    her life. She wouldn’t regret it even if she died here today without seeing Nathan. Ss‘ anger gradually


    gave way to a hint of amusement as he watched M’s defiant expression. He spoke vigorously, “It is


    true that we have captured two Norvanian researchers. and killed several Norvanian soldiers who had


    infiltrated Nightshade, but all of this was done to save Oliver.


    “As for Nathan, he is the general of the Norvanian military. Capturing him would be a deration of war


    on Norvania. Do you think we have the guts to do that?”


    M’s gaze hardened, and her tone became stern. “You may not have the guts to openly


    dere what you’ve done, but you’ve certainly had a lot of dirty dealings behind the scenes.”
