NovelApexChapter 2805 Incident Of Intercepting The Ship
Under the clear sky, a massive fleet of cargo ships, comprising nearly twenty vessels with a carrying capacity of
5,000 tons each, sailed slowly on the sea. "Jefford, once we pass through this strait, we will reach the Seraphis
Sea," a subordinate reported to Jefford Knox.
With a smile on his face, Jefford nodded. He had invested his entire fortune in this lucrative deal. If he could
successfully deliver this batch of jade silk to Seraphis, he would make a profit of at least 15 million.
"What a beautiful weather!" he commented while enjoying the gentle sea breeze. However, his smile didn't last
long. As soon as the fleet entered the Seraphis Sea, countless black dots began to emerge on the horizon. When
he observed through the ship's telescope, he was instantly shocked.
Dozens of heavily armed warships were approaching with great momentum. What could they possibly want?
"Who is the captain? Show yourself!" Jefford demanded.
After the two sides approached each other, the warships forced the transport fleet to stop.
Taking a deep breath to steady himself, Jefford stepped forward to respond. Looking at the heavily armed
machine guns on the enemy's ships, his legs went weak, and he was filled with worry. However, all he could do
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas silently pray that they weren't here to intercept the ship.
"I am Jefford Knox, a Cathay merchant!" he introduced himself, hoping to intimidate the other party with his
Cathay identity.
However, the thug on the other side wasn't convinced. "I don't care which country you're from. We received a
report that you are carrying dangerous goods into Seraphis, so we need to inspect everything." As soon as these
words were spoken, Jefford's heart sank. The inspection was just an excuse; their intention was undoubtedly to
intercept the ship.
"Young man, all of our ships are leased from Harrowsen International Group. Their staff had already inspected
them before departure," he explained hurriedly. "There couldn't possibly be any prohibited items." After saying
this, he quickly took out the inspection certificate from Harrowsen International Group from his pocket with the
intention of handing it over. However, the thug tore it apart without even looking at it. "You've got snerve by
trying to forge evidence. No need to search. We know you're hiding something fishy. Detain them! We need to
conduct a thorough inspection."
Upon hearing these words, Jefford paled, and he felt a sudden dizziness. This was his entire fortune. If it were
taken by these bandits, there would be no possibility of getting it back. Just as he was about to fight for it, the
youngster lost patience.
"If you dare to talk nonsense to me, I'll kill you right away."
Feeling the coldness of the gun against his temple, Jefford felt his heart sink.
On the opposing warship, a tall and fierce-looking man emerged from the cabin wearing a coat. As soon as the
young man saw him, he immediately withdrew his hostility and ran to the man's side.
"Mr. Joyner, we have already dealt with them. Should we kill them or let them go?"
What? They actually wanted to kill and silence them?
Upon hearing the question, the crew members trembled. Even pirates knew the importance of keeping things
under wraps, yet they were planning to kill.
Bah, they were worse than pirates!
Fortunately, Daran did not order their execution. "Kill them? Why would we do that? These people are all
potential sources of money."
As he spoke, he walked to the front and grabbed Jefford by the collar, lifting him up. "Consider this batch of
goods as a gift for Grandpa. If you want their lives, pay up. Fifty thousand for each person. You have three days.
If you're even a minute late, I'll kill one."
With that, Daran threw Jefford onto the deck and left with a big laugh.
