Chapter 1332
Halvor pushed against the iron gate and growled in anger. Even though he was incredibly old, his voice was clear and powerful.
In an effort to get out, he tried shaking the iron gate as hard as he could, but it remained immovable.
James grinned slightly as he looked at the furious Halvor in the cell." Halvor, are you still unaware of the current situation at this
point? Do you really believe the people outside will get you out?"
As he said that, he gestured at the soldier behind him and said, “Unlock the door."
The soldier behind him approached and unlocked the iron door. As soon as the door opened, Halvor dashed over, and the
soldier behind James raised his weapon in an instant.
Halvor came to a halt immediately and looked at James with a face filled with resentment.
"Stand back,” the soldier barked coldly.
Halvor backed off, and James entered the cell.
A Red Flame Army soldier carried over a chair. James sat down, took out a cigarette, and lit it. Smoke filled the air in the dim and
dark underground prison.
“Halvor, I've seriously underestimated the Tucksons. I assumed the Tucksons were just a wealthy family. I wasn't expecting them
to have such a vast network of contacts. Even some senior Red Flame Army officials are trying to figure out how to get you out."
"Hmph." Halvor stood at a side and fixed a glare on James. He said coldly," James, you've just arrived in the Capital. You'll never
know how deep the water is in the Capital. This involves many people's interests. It isn't just about the Tuckson family. Do you
feel the pressure now? It has just begun. You really have the gall to start a fight, but you certainly won't be able to handle the
consequences."
Halvor calmed down.
From his point of view, James had imprisoned him for two months and had done nothing to him, so he must have been afraid of
the repercussions. Now, James had come to meet him in person. It showed that James was about to crumble under the
pressure.
"Pressure? Hehe." James gave a small grin. "What kind of pressure could I have? I'm here to meet you simply because I have a
question for you."
"Is that so?"
Halvor appeared unconvinced.
James asked casually, "Why did the Tucksons want to make a move on Blue Tech Corporation? What research has Blue Tech
Corporation developed that piqued the Tuckson family's interest? Why are the people outside still attempting to obtain this
technology even while you are imprisoned?"
Halvor said nothing and remained silent. He was thinking.
He was thinking about the real reason for James' visit.
James most certainly had not come to ask this question, in his opinion. He must have succumbed to the pressure and came to
reconcile.
When he had previously escaped with a helicopter but was intercepted by James, he knew that James was a martial artist and a
powerful one at that. As the head of one of the Capital's largest families, he was well aware of the existence of martial artists.
Things were also quite complicated among the ancient martial artists.
The families and groups of the ancient martial artists were inextricably linked to some of the Capital’s consortia. His benefits
were not only for some of the working officials, but they were also linked to the benefits of many ancient martial artists and even
the King of Sol.
Halvor could not figure out why there had not been any activity outside while two months had passed, and why James was still
firmly seated on the Emperor's throne.
“Halvor, I'm giving you another chance. If you cooperate with me, I'll consider you to have made amends for your crimes. I
guarantee that you'll live. Otherwise, you won't live much longer,” James spoke once again.
"James, I'm asking. What's the current situation outside?" inquired Halvor.
He had been incarcerated for more than two months in this place, cut off from the rest of the world. Currently, he was unaware of
the circumstances outside.
"Halvor, oh Halvor. You've reached this point and you're still not giving up? Are you still holding on to the false hope that
someone will rescue you from this situation? Tell me where your assurance that you'll leave this place comes from. Tell me, who
is behind you, and where will they get the power to get you out? If you say that they are the group of high-ranking Red Flame
Army officials, then I'll tell you straight—l'll deal with these people slowly next. Within six months, I'll make sure they're all
captured."
