Chapter 1813: Destroyed overnight
Bader, who had been rampant in the Gulf of Aden, never dreamed that he would have his life taken away so easily.
And in Chen Zhonglei's view, for a guy who couldn't be brought to the table to die under his hands, it could be considered his good fortune.
Subsequently, Chen Zhonglei gently placed his body back on the bed.
Bader's body was still in a face-up position, but his entire face was buried in the pillow, revealing only the back of his head.
This scene was both discordant and carried a bit of eeriness.
Chen Zhonglei then took a waterproof plastic cylinder from his bosom and took out a piece of calligraphy written by Wan Pojun himself, which had only eight words on it: "Kill gods if gods block the way, kill Buddhas if Buddhas block the way."
This piece of calligraphy was the reminder left by the Wanlong Palace for the rest of the pirate organization.
Chen Zhonglei then silently retreated from the room, signaled to his subordinates who were on guard outside, and headed together toward the beach where they had just landed.
And the other five subordinates had already installed remote-controlled bombs on all the dozens of speedboats on the beach; as long as they pressed the button, they could blow up all the boats of these pirates.
One of the subordinates handed the remote detonation device to Chen Zhonglei. Chen Zhonglei looked at the brightly lit pirate base and gently pressed the detonation button.
A few seconds later, on the coastline of the pirate base, a series of explosions suddenly occurred. Dozens of speedboats of various types burst into huge flames, some even being blown into mid-air.
Following the dense sound of explosions, the entire coastline was engulfed in raging fire.
These speedboats had just been filled with fuel by the pirates, preparing to set out early tomorrow morning to encircle and suppress Yisu Shipping's freighters. The fully loaded fuel was instantly ignited by the explosions, and the fire seemed to form a wall of fire along the coastline.
It was also because of such huge and dense explosions that everyone in the entire pirate base was awakened.
A large group of pirates looked blankly at the rolling, burning speedboats, each of them stunned and standing there in a daze.
In Bader's room, the two young women who were sleeping soundly were also awakened by the sound of the explosions, and subsequently, they hurriedly tried to wake Bader, who was still lying motionless on the pillow.
This push didn't matter, but one of the women instantly discovered that Bader's body was straight, but his head was completely reversed.
She was first surprised, then subconsciously pushed Bader, only to discover that Bader's body was already cold...
This scared her into screaming instantly. The other woman, seeing this scene, was also scared out of her wits, stumbling as she tried to run out.
It happened that the second-in-command came running to report. Seeing this woman rush out like a madman, the second-in-command hurriedly asked: "Where is the boss?"
The woman said in terror: "Ba... Bader, he... he... he is dead..."
"What did you say?!" The second-in-command was instantly struck by lightning. After coming to his senses, he hurriedly ran into the room, only to discover that Bader had had his neck twisted.
This scene made his back feel a chill.
He couldn't help but mutter to himself: "What's going on... what's going on... who on earth did this..."
Immediately following, an answer suddenly flashed in his mind: "Could it be... could it be the Wanlong Palace?!"
Thinking this, he suddenly saw that Bader was clutching a piece of paper in his hand. He hurriedly opened it and discovered that there were eight Chinese characters written on it.
Although he was the second-in-command here, he didn't have much education; let alone Chinese characters, he couldn't even recognize all 26 English letters.
However, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen these eight characters somewhere before.
Thinking carefully, he realized that the shape of these eight Chinese characters was very similar to the eight Chinese characters in the statement released by the Wanlong Palace during the day.
In this instant, he understood that all of this was the work of the Wanlong Palace!
Thinking of this, his back was instantly soaked with cold sweat!
He didn't expect that they had originally wanted to go encircle Yisu Shipping's freighters and the Wanlong Palace's escort personnel early tomorrow morning, but the Wanlong Palace's actions were clearly faster; they hadn't even waited for tomorrow, they had actually killed their way directly to their base camp!
And he didn't expect even more that the Wanlong Palace's strength was actually so powerful that in this base with over a thousand people, the boss was killed, and everyone was completely unaware!
Bader had spent twenty years building this empire, only to have his neck twisted in his own base camp in the end!
Moreover, the dozens of ships that Bader had accumulated over these twenty years were also blown to smithereens by the Wanlong Palace in an instant!
All his hard work of twenty years, along with himself, had been destroyed overnight in this one night!
The second-in-command immediately realized that since the Wanlong Palace had this ability, then theoretically, it would be easy for them to kill anyone on their side!
He couldn't help but look at Bader's miserable state again, only feeling a chill in his own neck for no reason!
At this moment, the Wanlong Palace had become a nightmare he couldn't shake off in his heart.
Just at this moment, a soldier rushed in and shouted: "Boss, it's not good! Our oil tank was hit by a speedboat and caught fire; now the fire is out of control!"
The second-in-command, hearing this, instantly felt a chill.
Their oil tank held nearly a hundred tons of gasoline. Usually, to facilitate refueling those speedboats, their oil tank was not far from the coastline and had no special protection. If this really exploded, the entire base would be completely ruined!
Although the boss was already dead, the organization still had to be maintained, so he immediately instructed: "Hurry up and put out the fire! Also, organize others to evacuate as soon as possible!"
At this time, on the beach, the soaring flames made the entire beach as bright as day.
A large group of pirates ran around the beach in a panic; some went to the sea to carry water in an attempt to put out the fire, while others took several-kilogram fire extinguishers and sprayed them at the raging fire in vain.
There were also quite a few who were afraid of death and had already fled far away, fearing being affected by the flames and the explosions that could happen at any time.
A few minutes later, the second-in-command organized nearly a hundred people, taking every fire-extinguishing device they could find, in an attempt to put out the raging fire on the oil tank.
However, their base didn't have any fire-extinguishing equipment suitable for putting out fuel, so even though they tried every possible method, the fire only burned larger and larger.
Helpless, the second-in-command could only order everyone to evacuate quickly.
Immediately following, a large number of pirates fled rapidly in all directions.
Many motor vehicles parked nearby were also driven away by the pirates, fearing they would be implicated.
After another few minutes, the oil tank suddenly burst into huge flames and a mushroom cloud, followed by a violent explosion sound hundreds of times louder than thunder, as well as the intense air wave generated by the explosion!
The few rows of simple houses closest to the oil tank were almost all knocked down by the explosion wave in this instant!
Those pirates who had only run a few hundred meters were also knocked to the ground by the explosion wave, and the scene was a mess!
And Chen Zhonglei's subordinates were recording all of this with a video camera on the beach in the distance.
The intense explosion wave came, and a few soldiers who were not strong enough couldn't even stand steady in the aftermath of the explosion.
Chen Zhonglei stood where he was, motionless; the powerful explosion wave couldn't move his body even a fraction.
Seeing that this pirate base was completely scrapped, Chen Zhonglei said to the others with satisfaction: "Alright, let's retreat!"
Immediately following, the group immediately changed into frogman equipment, plunged into the sea, and disappeared.
Two hours later, another video became viral on the global internet.
This video was the on-site video of the big explosion at Bader's base!
At the same time, another even more shocking news came out: Bader had been assassinated and died! ===== CHAPTER 1814 =====
