Chapter 2735
Since there were no recipient details on it, Fade casually opened the parcel.
Inside, there was a USB stick wrapped in old newspaper, along with a wrinkled piece of paper with the words "For Fade Chen". "What is this? Is this a prank?" He frowned slightly.
However, he still picked up the USB stick, came to the computer in his study, and inserted it into his computer.
The USB stick's folder opened and there was a web link inside it. Fade clicked on it and it directed him to the dark web.
There was no other content, only a line of words and a login button.
"Brat, you've been out for so long that you must have forgotten about poor old me. Now, I have a mission for you."
"Old fogey!" Judging by the tone of the words,
Fade immediately guessed that it was his master, Aldred.
"Mission? What's the mission?" Fade was confused. Then, he clicked on the button.
It brought him to a new page.
On the upper left corner of the webpage, there was a sign of two daggers crossing each other. Fade was quite familiar with the symbol. It was the symbol of the Double Blades, an organization established by his master.
Below the Double Blades symbol was an image with Fade's name, personal information, martial arts level, and so on.
The content of the webpage was very similar to the personal information seen on a forum.
On the upper right corner, there was a flashing red button that represented one's personal email inbox.
"This webpage is an internal forum specifically for the Double Blades. He must have created this account for me. It seems like I have mail. Is he trying to send me something?" Fade guessed as he opened his inbox.
Then, a list of information appeared in front of his eyes.
"Kid, when you receive this email, you should not be too far from the Lord Level."
"Now, I'll assign you a task."
"If you have a chance to return to Prohibition Island again, sneak into the dungeon of the Three Palaces on Prohibition Island and bring a message to someone called Yarrow Gu. The message is 'Thirty years; just hold on for another thirty years. We're succeeding very soon'."
"But of course, your own safety is the most important thing!"
The message came to an abrupt end.
Fade frowned as he read it again.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Who was Yarrow Gu?
If he hung tight for another thirty years, they would succeed. What did that mean?
However, it was pointless to think about it. There would be no answer to this question no matter how hard he tried to think it through.
Anyhow, he did not plan to ask Aldred about it. After all, if it was meant for him to know, Aldred would have told him directly.
Since the old man had used such a roundabout way to pass the message to him, it must have meant that it was very important and confidential.
As he thought of this, Fade exited the web page and cleared his browser history. He even ignited and burned the USB stick into ashes.
He was still pondering on the words. That afternoon, another piece of news arrived.
It was from Prohibition Island, asking him to return to the island as soon as possible so he could attend a meeting there.
Receiving the news, Fade could not
help but feel a little shocked. He
ет
thought of the USB stick he had received earlier, "The old fogey just sent me a message this morning.
Sorter, Prohibition Island called
me back. This is too coincidental!"
He had some speculations and worries, so he specially hired someone to take care of the people around him before leaving for
Prohibition Island.
With the confirmation from Prohibition Island, this trip would not be as troublesome as the one before.
Not long after, Fade entered the Island. He did not waste any time on the outer island.
This time, their welcome for him was much better than before.
The one waiting on the pier was not the armed guard as before, but Nestor and Camelia from Green Wood Hall.
The two of them stood on the dock and looked at Fade with happy smiles.
As soon as he got off the boat, they greeted him cheerily.
"Fade, you've been away for so long. You're finally back!" Camelia was still as calm and elegant as before. Her fair skin showed no signs of aging as she greeted him with a warm smile.
Fade smiled back gently and said, "Greetings, Madam Camelia."
On the side, Nestor intimately bumped against Fade's shoulder and whispered, "I didn't expect you to be so powerful. You really hid your strength from us!"
"Ah... Me? What's so powerful about me? Mr. Moo, I don't even know what you mean." Fade shrugged in confusion.
Nestor glared at him and snorted, "We're all from Green Wood Hall. What's there to hide in front of us?"
"What you did outside has spread to Prohibition Island. Now, everyone is talking about you."
"By the way, have you actually stepped into the Lord Level?"
Nestor asked him curiously.
Fade was shocked. He did not expect that the people on Prohibition Island had kept an eye on his battles. Anyhow, he simply replied, "I'm not far from the Lord Level, but there is still a distance before I reach it."
Upon hearing this, Nestor felt a bit sad and sighed. "What a pity. Otherwise, our Green
Wood Hall would have one more Lord Level expert."
Realizing that his remark was not very polite, Nestor quickly added, "Butthat's already pretty impressive I didn't think that you could improve so quickly in just a few months? Not only have your powers surpassed mine, you're not far from Madam Lamella's level either."
After that, he glanced at Lamella.
Upon seeing this, she smiled and said, "Well, the Chief is waiting to see Fade. Don't hold him back."
Nestor smiled and replied, "Madam
Camelia, Fade will definitely achieve some great success in his return this time He will be offered the position of main deacon, or even the
vice chief. I'm just seizing this e
opportunity to show my favor towards him! "
"I didn't know you had such a glib tongue before!" Camelia glared at him, and then slowly walked towards Green Wood Hall with Fade. Soon, they returned to Green Wood Hall.
To Fade's surprise, the Chief of Green Wood Hall, Janus, personally welcomed him at the entrance and invited him into the hall with a smile.
After exchanging pleasantries, Fade sat down on the left-hand side near the Chief and finally inquired, "Mr. Janus, may I know why you have called me back this time?"
Janus looked at him and flicked his sleeve. He then said, "Actually, the reason why we called you back this time is that the 'Contest of Three Palaces' will be held soon."
"Contest of Three Palaces? What is that?" Fade was confused.
