Chapter 942: 294. Winning on three fronts_2
Everything had been predicted by the writer of the letter.
Thus, according to the secret letter’s conjecture, the two people before him would surely inquire about matters related to Noland Lee Jarvis next.
Hadley Grant nervously scratched his beard, trying hard to maintain his composure internally.
“Gentlemen, what exactly do you want to do? I haven’t offended you. I’m just a treasure hunter who occasionally ventures out to sea…”
“Shut up! You answer what we ask you,” the Human Wizard said fiercely, pressing the tip of his magic wand against Hadley Grant’s chin:
“From now on, if you dare utter one more word of nonsense, I’ll pierce a hole in you with this wand!”
Hadley Grant’s face showed fear, and he shrank back his neck.
The Human Wizard glared at him, retracted the magic wand, and turned sideways to look at the Rock bone Magician behind him.
He bent slightly at the waist, drawing his right arm in front of him, and gestured an inviting hand motion to the Rock bone Magician.
He stepped back a few paces, passing the right to question to the Rock bone Magician.
The status difference between the two was obvious at a glance.
The Rock bone Magician shot a detached gaze from behind the Metal mask toward Hadley Grant and asked:
“Do you remember Noland Lee Jarvis?”

“Yes, Sir. I remember Noland Lee Jarvis. What would you like to ask? Please, just ask.”
The Rock bone Magician asked several questions related to the interactions between Hadley Grant and Noland Lee.
The secret letter Hadley received had anticipated the current scenario and provided him with a prepared line of thought for answering the questions.
Hadley followed this train of thought, concealing a series of events, such as “Noland Lee’s defeat of the deep sea Magic Beasts.”
The Rock bone Magician shifted the topic, beginning to narrate about the Deep Sea Branch mining non-metallic ore on Noland Lee’s four Islands.
This, however, touched upon Hadley Grant’s blind spot…
He was merely a Deep-sea Wizard capable of sailing and swimming; how would he know the ins and outs of prospecting and mining non-metallic ore?
A look of thick confusion painted Hadley Grant’s face.
“Your Excellency, you might be asking the wrong person. I don’t know why the Deep Sea Branch is mining Jarvis’s islands…”
Hadley looked somewhat dumbfounded:
“As for the Nonmetal Mineral Distribution Map you mentioned, honestly, I have no idea where Jarvis obtained it from…”
Hadley scratched his head, asking in confusion:
