Chapter 642: Chapter 641: The Arrogant Luo Bin
Seoul City Center.
Atop a towering skyscraper, a lavish party was in full swing. Young, graceful figures moved wildly to the rhythm of alcohol, the room brimming with the scent of hormones.
If ordinary Koreans were present, their jaws would drop—most top celebrities they dreamt of in their youth were gathered here. Now stripped of their usual on-stage glory, they wore revealing, exaggerated outfits, doing their utmost to showcase their allure to the big shots.
Many Federation Soldiers, not caring for decorum, were in the throes of frenzied sprints, a scene not stopped but rather encouraged by the raucous cheers and applause of onlookers.
This was a party beyond the wildest dreams of the poor.
In an adjacent luxurious room, a mixed-race man sat on a leather sofa, an expensive cigar hanging from his lips.
In front of him, a top beauty knelt on the floor, vigorously moving back and forth.
"Oh, yes!"
The mixed-race man let out a cry of ecstasy, then turned to the solemn-faced Korean youth on the opposite sofa, saying, "Oh, my intimate brother, are you still angry about this matter? Rest assured, the modernized troops I sent are well-equipped. They’ve carried out numerous beheading missions in the Middle East Battlefield and have never failed."
As he spoke, he glanced at his luxurious watch, his arrogance boundless. "In no more than three minutes, there will be good news. Then the Li Family will be headless, and your Jin Family will be able to swallow up their assets, soaring to become Korea’s number one tycoon."
That young Korean was named Jin Riwen, a half-brother of Jin Rixu, with a distinguished status among the younger generation of the Jin Family.
In the past, Jin Rixu had been the most favored in his generation of the Jin Family. But since his disappearance last year, Riwen had become the leader of the Jin Family’s younger generation.
"You’ve just arrived here and still don’t fully understand that woman from the Li Family, perhaps underestimating her abilities. She is extremely capable, and many expert Martial Arts practitioners follow her. A beheading mission of this level is unlikely to succeed, and it will only serve to infuriate her, making our lives very difficult," Jin Riwen said helplessly.
The man across from him, a Korean-American mix named Robin Douglas, came from a Federation military family, his grandfather being none other than the world-famous, especially in Asia, Five-star Admiral.
"Oh, so good, turn around." Robin suddenly shouted, patting the head of the beauty, signaling her to turn.
Then, in front of Jin Riwen, he violently continued with the top beauty, but after a dozen or so thrusts, he cried out and ceased fire.
Jin Riwen was unphased by such a spectacle. As the son of one of Korea’s top tycoon families, he had started living this lavish lifestyle in his teens.
After Robin had finished, he ordered the woman, "Get out."
To the Korean public, she was a top diva, but in front of Jin Riwen, she was like a obedient bitch, quietly withdrawing.
The private room was left with just Jin Riwen and Robin Douglas.
Robin, keeping the cigar in his mouth, zipped his pants with a look of boredom, saying, "There won’t be a situation like this again because I have come here, and the Federation has already decided to change the status quo. So rest assured, my friend, soon the Jin Family will become the premier tycoon family here. The military is absolute power, and in front of absolute power, everything the Li Family does is like an illusory bubble, easily burst."
Jin Riwen’s expression shifted subtly.
As a Korean, he had enjoyed the game rules of the past decades, standing at the top of the country’s food chain as a member of the Jin Family’s Consortium, savoring the finest of what humanity could offer.
But now, with the arrival of Robin Douglas and the transfer of command of the Federation Soldiers stationed in Korea to him, it seemed that the old rules were about to be broken.
Although the other party is currently an ally of the Jin Family, he worries that one day in the future, the Jin Family might end up like the Li Family of today.
However, the likelihood of that happening should be quite slim.
Under the pressure of global public opinion, the Federation still dares not blatantly take direct control of the country; they still need a native clan like the Jin Family to ostensibly govern it.
"I want to know how resolute the Federation is this time," Jin Riwen asked.
For decades, Korea’s native forces had tried multiple times to expel the Federation Soldiers stationed there, dividing into left and right factions, perpetually engaged in strife. The domestic military strength had also seen a significant boost over the years, and if the Federation’s attitude wasn’t firm enough, they wouldn’t be able to fully control the military authority here.
"Once and for all!" Luo Bin said in a dominating tone, "From now on, remember not to align with the wrong side. Those who do will leave this stage forever."
Jin Riwen’s expression turned stern as he confirmed, "Really?"
"Absolutely true." Luo Bin smiled, stood up, walked over to Jin Riwen, sat beside him, and patted his shoulder, saying, "My friend, I wouldn’t deceive you. From today onwards, this will be our world. The Jin Family will be yours in the future, and everything about this country will soon be decided by you and me."
Jin Riwen’s heart raced. Although he was the son of one of Korea’s top tycoons, he was still subject to many restrictions. But if he became the number one person here, the one calling all the shots, he could truly soar.
Just then, Jin Riwen seemed to hear an alarm sound that made him tense.
He looked at Luo Bin and asked, "Did you hear an alarm?"
Luo Bin was momentarily stupefied before bursting into laughter, "Friend, you really are timid. This is your turf, and I’m here. There are heavily armed guards downstairs in the building, and everyone who enters undergoes the strictest search. How could there be any danger?"
However, Jin Riwen still felt that peculiar alarm ringing in his ears.
Unlike Luo Bin, as the second generation of the Jin Family and someone who had been raised by Martial Arts experts since childhood, he possessed a certain level of cultivation, being a Martial Arts expert in the Energy Transformation Realm Lower Three Grades, with much sharper hearing than the average person.
"No, something’s wrong; it seems the building’s alarm system has been triggered," Jin Riwen stood up, his expression extremely grave.
If he had heard it only once, he might have thought he was mistaken, but having faintly heard it twice, he didn’t believe it to be an illusion.
As he stood up, the door of the private room was forcibly pushed open, and several Federation Soldiers appeared at the door, their faces etched with seriousness.
With the door pushed open, the chaotic noise from outside came in, and the distinctive alarm pierced both men’s ears clearly.
The two leading men emanated a sharp aura, clearly veterans of many battles.
One of them spoke to Luo Bin with a grave expression, "Leader, someone has launched a surprise attack on the building; we need to get out of this damned place."
Luo Bin was bewildered and said in disbelief, "What are you talking about?"
"You heard me right; we’ve been attacked and need to move immediately." The soldier, well-trained, rushed into the private room, grabbed Luo Bin’s hand, and pulled him outside.
He knew that this young master hadn’t earned his position through personal capability, but in no way could he allow anything to happen to him here, or else he and his team would face the wrath of the Douglas Family.
