For instance, the guards were wielding modified M1917 infrared machine

guns.

At that time, the Northern Region already knew that Kasango had the

backing of a powerful and mysterious force that prompted them to start the

war. This made the conflict extremely challenging for the Northern Region.

However, with the soldiers‘ unwavering resolve to protect their country, they

ultimately defeated Kasango and drove them back.

After the war, although Chanaea suffered significant losses, Kasango’s losses

were even greater, setting their economy back by over a decade. They had

to export large quantities of food, textiles, and generic medicines to pay off

their weapons debt.

It was clear that someone had deliberately instigated the war to make

Chanaea bleed and Kasango incur massive economic losses while they

profited from the conflict.

However, the forces behind the scenes and investigations only confirmed

that Chanaea’s Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, Teddy Tanner, was

involved. The full extent of the involved forces remained unknown.

Emmanuel hadn’t expected to discover this so soon after arriving on the Dark

Night Islands. This discovery directly implicated the Airspace Group in the

war’s machinations.

“Go in!”

The armed guards led Emmanuel to a strange, enclosed area and shoved

him through an iron door.

Emmanuel frowned. This should indeed be the Dark Night Islands, but how on

earth am I going to find Mackenzie? Or Claudette and Quintus, for that.

matter? Blake… Well, he should be able to fend for himself, given his skills…

Once inside, Emmanuel checked his phone for a signal–none. This was a

completely isolated island! Even if he found Mackenzie, he had no idea how

they could escape. Panicking was useless; he needed to stay calm to have

Chapter 1679 Becoming the King of the Dark Night

any chance of survival.

70%

Emmanuel felt frustrated, wondering why his wife had made such a decision.

But it was too late for such thoughts. He needed to understand this place and

quickly find his wife and Claudette.

“Hey, are you new here?” Two men approached Emmanuel, eyeing him

maliciously.

Emmanuel remained silent, observing them. They seemed to be ordinary

people, not martial artists, for they were holding farming tools, working to

produce food.

It made sense–an isolated island with many inhabitants needed someone

to produce food, or everyone would starve.

“Hey, are you deaf? We’re talking to you!” The two men, growing bolder,

shoved Emmanuel.

The Dark Night Islands were a survival–of–the–fittest environment. Over the

Chapter 1679 Becoming the King of the Dark Night

years, outsiders who stumbled upon the island rarely left. The weak were kept

as slaves, and finding new slaves meant sharing the workload. Thus,

newcomers were always targeted by these low–level inhabitants. However,

they were shocked to find that despite using all their strength, they couldn’t move Emmanuel at all. Their aggressive demeanor turned to comical fear.

“Where am I? How do I get out?” Emmanuel finally spoke.

In this dog–eat–dog world, the two men realized Emmanuel was formidable

and dared not defy him. “This… This is the Dark Night Islands, also known as

Devil’s Island. There’s only one way to leave: become the island’s sole ruler!”

“The sole ruler?” Emmanuel frowned slightly.

Before coming here, he had heard Mackenzie mention that the island was

always competing to determine the King of the Dark Night. The Airspace

Group seemed to be using this method to train the ultimate assassin to

eliminate high–ranking officials and achieve their political goals.

“That’s right. To become the King of the Dark Night, you first need to become

Chapter 1679 Becoming the King of the Dark Night

a representative member of the Black Wolf Team. The competition on this

island is far more brutal than you can imagine,” one man said, pointing

toward a building ahead.

Emmanuel lost interest in talking to these low–level individuals and looked

toward the strange building. The building was primitively lit with fire lamps,

and above the main door was a carved wolf head.
