Chapter 2299
The sea breeze blew, and my thoughts got disturbed. However, it did help to ease my seasickness. I didn't have time to calm down but hurriedly walked as I saw Jordan getting closer to the car that came to pick us up.
Jordan seemed to be someone respectful on this island. Throughout the journey, almost everyone who saw our car bowed and greeted us with a smile.
The smiles of these people looked natural and friendly. However, it seemed like he was so used to this that he had no reaction at all.
This made Jordan look like he was the most respectful 'God', who was taking his trip. Yet, this 'God' didn't have to do anything but just sit back and quietly accept their greetings as a gift to the people.
At this moment, my heart suddenly beat faster. I looked away from those gazes uneasily. I couldn't tell if they were stupid or just innocent.
Soon, we reached the largest factory on the island. The workers should have received the news in advance as they lined up outside the factory to welcome us.
These workers all wore the same blue uniforms, and they were all young people. All of them were full of vitality and was surprisingly united. Just like the older generation, whenever there was an order, they would just roll up their sleeves and get to it no matter what.
"Welcome, Mr. Marshall! Welcome, Mr. Marshall!"
While they were welcoming us, we got out of the car, and Jordan did not stop to talk to these 'followers'. Instead, he walked past the crowd while following the lead of a young manager and walked into the factory without any expression. I had to follow closely from behind to ensure that I wouldn't be pushed aside by the other workers.
The assembly line in the factory was in the production process, and every area was in order. It seemed that our arrival did not cause too much of a commotion, or perhaps it was because these people were well-trained and would not do anything beyond the rules.
However, there was something very strange. Whether it was the employees outside, the staff on the assembly line, or even the management staff on patrol, they were all very young men.
It would usually be less tiring if both males and females work together. This factory was so huge. Yet, there wasn't even a single female employee? When we entered the elevator, I was wondering if I had seen it wrongly. Suddenly, the phone in front of me made some noise that sounded like an electric current. I looked up and saw a white light flashing on the display screen when it was supposed to show the floor number. Then, it turned into a brand new face recognition screen.
The manager, who welcomed us in, moved his face closer to the screen. In just a second, the words 'successful identification' appeared on the
screen.
Just as I looked around and waited for the elevator to go up, I heard the roaring sound of an engine behind me. Then, there was a sense of antigravity as the elevator began to move down.
After about a minute, the elevator
stopped steadily, and we walked out. It was an intersection with three passages. Each passage was dark, and its end could not be seen clearly. In addition to that, the deep underground felt damp. Hence, the darkness was particularly gloomy.
At this moment, Jordan turned to look at me and exclaimed with a faint smile, "After seeing my factory, maybe you'll change your perspectives towards me."
I could only say that he was thinking too much. I replied with a sullen face, "Well, I've seen it, and it didn't change anything at all. Sorry to have disappointed you."
Jordan was not angry, but smiled instead. He looked away calmly, looked ahead, raised his hands, and clapped.

The next second, there was a rhythmic sound coming from the darkness of several passages. Then, rows of light beams lit up one by one, and the passageway looked bright. At the end of the passage, the iron door slowly opened, and it was like there was another other world hidden in it.
Who would have thought that in the depths of the ground meters below, there was another factory that was almost exactly the same as the one at the top ground!
I naturally walked through the middle passageway and approached this world that was illuminated with lights. The moment I looked into the eyes of the staff who were looking around, I knew that this was not a mirage.
In other words, this was the real factory that Jordan was working on. What was produced here was not the unknown parts that was seen in the factory above the ground, but these were drugs.
This man not only regarded himself as a God, but he also created his own world.
This place was clearly a shelter for protecting humans during disasters, but it was transformed into a life-threatening drug factory.
On the assembly line, I could see bags of crystalslike drugs moving slowly. The suffering look on Evan being addicted to the drug flashed across my mind.
Hence, whatever they were transmitting was not just chemical products, but were killer weapons that could take away human lives.
"Are you surprised?" Jordan's voice

hovered in my ear. "Even the biggest drug dealer in Calosbia would only have a messy factory and would have to be hidden from the world. But look at the one I created it's so perfectly arranged and in order. It's totally a piece of art!"
Looking at his crazy complacent look, I clenched my fists tightly and in my heart. I had an impulse to destroy this place once and for all.
