God of Blackfield

Chapter 155.1: Watch and Learn (2)

Meanwhile, Anne and Raphael were currently so calm that it was almost funny. They regained their peace of mind upon seeing Kang Chan handle the situation so critically.

Should I have searched the Seoul Hotel?

He could easily get this done even if he asked Kim Hyung-Jung for a favor. However, he couldn’t bring himself to pick up the phone since his rash judgment could be the determining factor for Lanok’s survival.

Kang Chan rested his forehead on his palms while calculating every situation and action he could think of. Not long after, someone knocked on the door three times. He looked up to see Xavier walking through the entrance. Choi Jong-Il, Woo Hee-Seung, and Lee Doo-Hee followed right behind him.

Pft.?

He didn’t know about Choi Jong-Il, but Woo Hee-Seung’s left cheek was definitely swollen, and Xavier’s face and t-shirt were completely covered in blood.

“A chair, please,” Kang Chan requested. In response, Raphael quickly took a chair and put it in front of Lanok’s desk.

Xavier sat down opposite Kang Chan. He looked irritated beyond his wits.

“What you have just done completely disrespects my organization! I don’t know how strong you are, but it doesn’t matter. The moment my organization decides to eliminate you, you and the people around you will never be safe again!” Xavier complained in annoyance.

“Enough with the talk about your oh-so-mighty organization, Xavier,” Kang Chan sarcastically replied. He stared directly at Xavier, who was wiping his face with a handkerchief.

“What do you want from me?”

“I already know you’re an agent of the United States and that you’re trying to obtain military secrets through Huh Ha-Soo.”

“Ha! You’ve seen too many movies,” Xavier snorted.

Kang Chan slightly shook his head. “Xavier, I brought you here to ask you for just one simple thing. It doesn’t matter if you use Huh Ha-Soo’s Chinese connections or the US intelligence agencies—just bring me back Ambassador Lanok.”

“I don’t know where Lanok is!” Xavier countered.

“Then find him.”

Xavier laughed in disbelief. “That won’t get you anywhere in information warfare. Just because you threatened and strong-armed someone does not mean you’ll be able to have your way.”

“I don’t care about how things are supposed to be done. All I want is for Ambassador Lanok to return to this office without so much as a scratch on him. That’s all there is to it,” Kang Chan said with a fierce glare. “What I can’t stand the most has already happened, so I hope you cooperate with me while I’m still asking you nicely, Xavier. The moment I run out of patience, I won’t hesitate to proceed with the operation. China, the United States, Britain… It doesn’t matter which country is involved in this. I will show the bastards involved in this affair no mercy as I get my revenge.”

“You don’t have the power to do that yet,” Xavier rebutted.

Kang Chan suddenly felt as if talking to Xavier was a waste of time. This wasn’t what he was expecting.

Ring. Ring.?

He immediately picked up the receiver on the desk.

“Ello?” Kang Chan answered.

-We have decoded the intel about the six locations in China and sent it to the embassy.

“Thank you.” Kang Chan was about to hang up the phone when the man started speaking again.

-God of Blackfield, if you send Russian and German special forces to China, it may lead to a war that no one can stop.?

The low, grave warning traveled over the line into Kang Chan’s ear.

-The DGSE is doing its utmost best. However, if you still judge it best to send in the special forces to rescue Ambassador Lanok, we will follow your decision.?

“I understand. I will call you once it’s decided,” Kang Chan replied.

After setting the phone down, Kang Chan let out a deep sigh. It was meaningless to drag things out from here. He had already decided to attack anyway, so there was no point wasting any more time.

Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.?

This time, Kang Chan’s phone began to vibrate on the table.

“Hello?”

-Mr. Kang, North Korea has gone into full defense, and Japan has issued a level one alert to its forces. The director would like to know what you wish to do.

“Mr. Kim.”

-Go ahead, Mr. Kang.?

“If you get punched and don’t do anything about it, you’re definitely going to get punched again. Once that becomes a pattern, you and the one who punched you will start thinking it is simply the norm. I don’t want that to happen.”

-Is that what I should tell the director?

“Yes, sir. This is my intent.”

As Kang Chan ended the call with Kim Hyung-Jung, an agent headed inside with a few documents in hand. It was a Chinese map with six red dots marked in certain locations. Each one was labeled with the areas’ names.

Kang Chan scanned the pages, then raised his eyebrow at Xavier.

“The ambassador went missing after having a meal with the Chinese ambassador and Huh Ha-Soo… Huh Ha-Soo is the one who was trying to give you military secrets.”

Ring. Ring. Ring.?

Kang Chan stopped talking to Xavier to answer the phone.

“Ello?”

-I’d like to speak with the God of Blackfield, please.?

Kang Chan was hearing this voice for the first time.

“Who’s this?”

-My name is Eton. I’m with the United Kingdom.

Britain? Kang Chan thought this was great. He had been planning to do something about them anyway since they kept getting on his nerves.

-Is this the God of Blackfield?

“Yeah.” Kang Chan replied.

The man let out a low sigh.

-We requested mediation from Lanok because we want to meet you. Your existence is critical to us as well. For that reason, we would like to help.

Kang Chan did not expect this. However, the UK had just recently attempted to launch a preemptive attack on France, and they hadn’t formally met yet, so Kang Chan didn’t feel right about readily accepting their support.

-To begin with, we will order an emergency decree on the SAS and SBS and give you command over them.?

“That’s too much. We can discuss the specifics later.”

-We will make the preparations just in case, then. We will contact you as soon as we obtain new information.?

The call ended on that note. Eton seemed pleased about finally getting to speak to Kang Chan. Meanwhile, Xavier carefully observed Kang Chan’s expression from where he had been arrogantly wiping his blood. He was probably acting this way because he didn’t have any reason to hesitate anymore.

Kang Chan put a cigarette in his mouth and lit it up with a lighter. He then turned toward Raphael, Choi Jong-Il, Seok Kang-Ho, then Anne.

He didn’t know what would happen if he proceeded with his decision, but they couldn’t just keep letting the enemy beat them up. It had only been a few months since the golf course and conference hall terrorist incidents, yet they still did not hesitate to kidnap Lanok.

Kang Chan faced Raphael with a determined look.

“Connect me to Vasili,” Kang Chan ordered.

Raphael quickly pressed the speed dial button.

Ring.?

-Kang Chan, this is Vasili.?

Now that Kang Chan had thought about it, the Russian had probably gotten no sleep today.

“Vasili, I received information from the DGSE regarding the location of China’s White Wolves. Eliminate them all for me.”

-Haah.?

A long, loud sigh could be heard over the phone.

-You’re asking for a lot.?

“Alright. I’ll just discuss this with the UK, then. Eton said they are ready to deploy at my command.”

-Eton? You spoke with that dirty English bastard? You can’t take his help so easily! Who knows what he’ll ask in return?

“I make the decisions, Vasili. So tell me what it’s gonna be.”

-Ha! Fine. We will send the special forces in immediately.?

“I’ll be waiting for results.”

Kang Chan hung up and asked Raphael to connect him to Ludwig.

Ring.?

-It’s Ludwig, Mr. Kang Chan.?

“White Wolves will be waiting on standby in the Chinese territories I’m sending you. Please eliminate them all.”

-Hmm.?

His reaction was similar to Vasili’s. The only difference was that Kang Chan heard Ludwig swallow at the end.

-Mr. Kang Chan, I said I would help, but you should really reconsider this choice.?

It didn’t seem like Ludwig was saying that because he changed his mind. He appeared to be genuinely concerned.

“Russia has already agreed, and Britain has expressed their intent to take part as well. Ludwig, if I stop now, it won’t just end with me getting humiliated. We could lose the ambassador forever.”

-The United Kingdom contacted you?

“He said his name was Eton, I believe.”

-That cunning bastard is trying to pull some tricks again, I see. Whew! All right. I will do as you say. May God bless this operation.?

Kang Chan ended the call, then used his phone to call someone. By this point, Xavier already seemed beyond flabbergasted.

-This is Kim Hyung-Jung.?

“Mr. Kim, I will send a few Chinese addresses to the NIS. We will be participating in a joint operation with France, Russia, and Germany. Please have the South Korean special forces sent to China. The objective is the complete elimination of the White Wolves, China’s special forces.”

Unlike the others Kang Chan had called, Kim Hyung-Jung gulped.

“I’ll inform you when the French special forces will arrive. The South Korean special forces can leave with them.”

-I will report this first. Are we really going to be conducting this operation with France, Russia, and Germany?

“Yes. Some of their forces have already started making their way to the target locations. The UK has also expressed their intent to participate if we requested their help.

Kim Hyung-Jung sounded as if he was choking back a sigh. The call ended not long after.

Kang Chan looked at Raphael.

“The DGSE,” he commanded.

Raphael connected the line as Anne nervously watched on from the background.

-Yes, go ahead.?

“Please give Russia and Germany information on all locations of the White Wolves. We will choose one territory for the Foreign Legion to attack. Once the French special forces arrive at the Osan airport, you will be joined by the South Korean special forces.”

-I will request approval and inform you immediately.?

After hanging up, Kang Chan leaned back in his chair. He would make it clear to everyone that anyone who touched his people would suffer fatal consequences. He would make sure his enemies would fear messing with him or anyone around him ever again.
