The Lightning Pentagon Mines were located at Half-Ridge Mountain City.

Half-Ridge Mountain City was an important industrial city of the Andes Federation. It was not as dazzling and developed as Banlo City, but the whole city was like a pounding heart, pumping blood through the important arteries of the nation.

Half-Ridge Mountain City was around forty kilometers away from Banlo City, with a huge tropical river as a boundary line between them.

When the plane flew across the river, Mo Fan noticed that the river was as wide as a small strait. It was rare to see a river so wide.

Using the river as a boundary line, the areas toward Banlo City were mostly farms, woods, and green fields.

In contrast, the areas toward Half-Ridge Mountain City were mostly barren.. There was not much vegetation, and some areas were as dry as the Gobi.

Industrial areas were p.r.o.ne to pollution. Even the rain on one side had a different color than the other.

“It might seem like Half-Ridge Mountain City is full of factories, trucks, and s.h.i.+ps, but the Andes Federation is planning to develop a port like Shanghai here in South America. They even plan to dig a channel through the Andes Mountain Range to reach the Pacific Ocean,” Zhu Meng claimed.

“That’s a lot of work,” Mo Fan observed.

“The Andes Mountains are a natural barrier that stops the sea monsters. If I’m guessing right, the cities along the coastline in South America will gradually move to the other side of the Andes,” Zhu Meng mused.

Mo Fan thought about that.

It was just as Zhu Meng had mentioned. The Andes Mountains were located along the sh.o.r.eline, forming a natural dam. It did not matter how high the sea level rose, it would never make it through the Andes Mountains Range, which stretched out like an enormous dragon.

It explained why Chile, Peru, and other countries had decided to form an alliance and potentially move their cities to the other side of the Andes Mountains. It was the perfect plan to hide from the invasion of sea monsters.

China and j.a.pan were on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, but the countries in South America did not have armies of the same size and strength as China and j.a.pan. China was able to build a two-hundred-thousand-kilometers-long dam on its vast sh.o.r.eline, while j.a.pan was known for being an expert at fighting maritime battles.

The countries in South America did not stand a similar chance against the sea monsters. Seeing that so many cities had been trampled to the ground by the sea monsters, choosing to form a federation and move the cities to the other side of the Andes Mountains was the smartest option!

“We are here, it’s right ahead,” Zhu Meng pointed ahead.

Half-Ridge Mountain City was constructed on a slope. It felt like the buildings in the city were arranged in a star from afar.

The Lightning Pentagon Mine was the biggest mine in Half-Ridge Mountain City. A group of people in khaki military outfits came over as Zhu Meng’s helicopter landed on the helipad.

The pilot took off his helmet and studied the soldiers. “Councilman, something isn’t right…”

“I’m a Councilman from China, Zhu Meng!” Zhu Meng revealed his ident.i.ty to the incoming soldiers.

A man with a yellow hat came up to Zhu Meng. “We are managing this place now,” the general declared.

“I’m here to see my niece. I have no interest in your business!” Zhu Meng remained fearless despite the pressure from the soldiers.

The general talked to his advisor softly. He nodded in the end, indicating that Zhu Meng was allowed to see his niece under their supervision.

The soldiers followed beside them, keeping stern faces, like they were going to fire their automatic rifles at Mo Fan and the others at any moment.

Mo Fan was utterly confused.

“The country is still politically unstable. This Lightning Pentagon Mine is its greatest a.s.set, so it’s normal for them to be on alert. However, I thought this mine belonged to the Andes Federation,” Zhu Meng informed him helplessly.

The mine used to belong to the Greens, but it now belonged to the Yellows!

It did not matter much to Zhu Meng. His company was still involved in the mining, so the change of owners.h.i.+p did not make any difference. The Yellows just had to sign a new agreement with his company.

“Uncle!” A short-haired woman in a jacket came trotting up to them.

“Why are you so tanned?” Zhu Meng asked her in concern.

“You can tell that the air isn’t great here, and the sun is always up. It’s only a matter of time before my skin condition worsens. Uncle, this Lightning Cultivation Tool is pretty rare. It should be able to strengthen your cultivation further!” the woman exclaimed.

“Zhu Li, allow me to introduce you; this is the famous Mo Fan you always wanted to meet. I brought him with me,” Zhu Meng said formally.

The woman immediately focused on Mo Fan. She blatantly scanned Mo Fan from his head to his feet.

“He isn’t as special as the rumors mentioned,” Zhu Li declared.

“My bad, not only do I not have three heads and six arms, I didn’t even have eyes like Xiang Yu, nor did I dig up a boulder from the Yellow River with a prophecy that I’m ascending to the throne,” Mo Fan answered smoothly.

“HAHAHA, you’re amusing!” Zhu Li laughed. She was more of a masculine woman.

Zhu Meng told Zhu Li his plan to give Mo Fan the Lightning Cultivation Tool.

Zhu Li was confused at first. She did not understand why Zhu Meng would give away something so useful, until she heard Zhu Meng mention there was a traitor among the core members of the Tianbei Enforcement Union.

The Lightning Cultivation Tool was nothing compared to Zhu Meng’s career!

“Besides, I’m getting older. Even if my cultivation improves, it will only provide me with more energy and better control. It won’t make much of a difference. Mo Fan has the Blessing of the G.o.d’s Seal. He’s also young, so he needs the Lightning Cultivation Tool more than I do… The truth is, even if Golden Canary wasn’t a traitor, I was planning to give it to Mo Fan anyway. Mo Fan is taking on the Black Vatican. He needs to become stronger as soon as possible,” Zhu Meng told her.

Zhu Meng meant what he said.

He was still hesitating a little before, but he had made up his mind after what had happened recently.

“Old man, I’m not going to take your thing for granted. Just let me know if you need my help,” Mo Fan did not turn down Zhu Meng’s offer.

There was no point in being too courteous with Zhu Meng. They had both sworn to take down the Black Vatican, and now was the time Mo Fan needed strength the most. He had long wanted to get his hands on the Lightning Pentagons, but the Andes Federation military had taken over the mine.

“Very well!” Zhu Meng was a straightforward man too. He did not think twice after making his decisions.

Zhu Li took out a gleaming Pendant. It had a Lightning Pentagon with a slight golden-purple l.u.s.ter, cut very delicately. The edges and vertexes were clean and sharp.
