Chapter 913: Salaman Submits

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

However, no matter how hard he searched, there was no trace of this “invisible person”. He even picked up the knife on his desk and slashed at the air a few times, but it still did not hit anyone.

This made him feel even more suspicious.

Because he was sure that he had just written down his experience on paper.

Yet, why was there nothing on the paper right after he raised his head?

He rubbed his aching head and returned to the table to inspect the paper.

There was not a trace on the paper, not even a mark from his pen strokes.

He placed the paper aside and lowered his head to look at the cushion that he had used to write. He wanted to see if there was any trace left behind.

Still… There was nothing.

He shook his head. He did not know what had happened to cause this.

He thought about it for a while, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Then he took out his phone and placed it on his desk, forming an angle that captured both himself and what was written on the paper.

He planned to use this method to see what the problem was, or perhaps use the video that he would record as a way to explain the situation to others.

After opening up the video recording function and confirming that the red dot on the screen had started to flicker, he returned to the table to write what he had seen that night.

Because he had something on his mind this time, plus he had written a version before, Salaman was able to write the entire thing very quickly.

He was writing away as if it was autonomous. However, the more he wrote, the more shocked he became.

This was because he had already witnessed what had happened earlier. Hence, that time, as he wrote, he was paying attention to the changes on the paper.

However, he saw that the handwriting on the paper was slowly disappearing.

No matter how fast he wrote, the handwriting on the paper would disappear.

Because this scene was too horrifying, as he wrote, he even waved his left hand before the table to see if there was really an “invisible person” erasing whatever he wrote.

Yet, he still found nothing.

So, halfway through, Salaman could not continue. He quickly stopped writing and went to his phone to check the video.

After all, according to his plan, even if the handwriting disappeared, the video should have recorded it disappearing, shouldn’t it?

However, when he picked up the phone with that thought, Salaman realized something even more horrifying! His phone was clearly recording, plus there was even a timestamp.

However, when stopped recording, he realized that he had not recorded anything at all.

‘The video has disappeared…’

Salaman’s entire white robe was soaked with his sweat.

‘What’s going on?!

‘Could it really be that there’s actually a mysterious force watching everything happening from the dark and preventing me from leaking the secret?!’

With that in mind, Salaman tried again. This time, he used two phones to record what was going on: one to record his own writing, and the other to record his own phone.

However, strangely enough, there was still no video recorded on both phones.

Salaman wondered if there was something wrong with these two phones, but when he recorded other videos, he realized that there was nothing wrong with the phones.

Salaman broke out in cold sweat. For a moment, he wondered if Su Yang had hacked into his phone and was monitoring him from the other side of the camera. So, he called his subordinate over and got him to bring over an old-fashioned tape recorder that was not connected to the internet.

Then he started to record his story.

The tape spun slowly, recording all the sounds, but when Salaman tried to listen again, he found that it was like a blank tape with nothing but silence.

This allowed him to confirm one thing: He could not record anything that was remotely related to his experience at Su Yang’s place that night.

In other words, he could not leave any record of what had happened that night, be it words, voice, or images!

Once Salaman died, that experience was going to remain a secret forever.

Initially, Salaman was curious about whether he was going to be able to leak the secret due to Su Yang’s confidence. However, as the situation got stranger and stranger, he became more and more afraid. But now, he was curious. ‘Could it be that I will never be able to let anyone else know about what I saw tonight?

‘What if I don’t record it and just say it out loud?’

At this thought, Salaman summoned some of his men and prepared to tell them what had happened tonight.

“I’ve called you all here because there’s something I’d like to tell you all.”

“Tonight…”

Just as Salaman was about to tell him about Su Yang, he realized that he could no longer hear himself.

He wanted to make a sound, but no matter how hard he tried to open his mouth, no matter how much his vocal cords vibrated, he could not make a single sound.

The man standing opposite him was surprised to see him open his mouth but remained silent. They exchanged glances and did not dare speak.

Salaman quickly took out a mirror and looked at himself. He realized that he was indeed opening his mouth and his throat was moving, but he could not speak.

Fear gripped his heart, and he quickly abandoned the thought of telling the truth. However, at that moment, he could speak normally again.

The sudden noise turned his voice into a growl.

Hearing his growl, one of his men asked with concern, “Prince Salaman, are you alright?”

Salaman regained his voice but dared not say anything more about what had just happened. He just waved his hand and said, “I’m fine.”

Salaman then tried some other methods to convey the message.

However, when there was someone else before him, whether if he was writing, talking, or even using body language, whenever Salaman even thought of wanting to expose Su Yang’s secret, he would be refrained from doing so immediately.

It was like there was a mysterious force that was monitoring his actions and prevented him from telling the secret that he knew.

After Salaman tried to say it many times, even his desk exploded. A sharp wooden board flew past his face and hit the wall.

The imminent danger almost made him jump.

This caused him to finally stop his attempts.

Waving his hand to dismiss his subordinates, Salaman finally confirmed one thing… ‘Su Yang wasn’t lying. Everything that I’ve experienced tonight cannot be recorded, spoken or spreaded.’

His mind went blank. ‘How is he doing this?

‘What kind of power could he have to be able to produce such a terrifying effect?

‘What kind of person have I actually met?

‘Could it really be a God?’

When Salaman saw Su Yang and the Clown Sea Serpent, he treated them as mutants. Even though he respected and was wary of them, he did not worship them, but treated them as equals.

After all, in that world, money was the best superpower.

But now, after Su Yang had let him experience a power that no one could withstand, Salaman’s mentality was completely shattered!

This was because he realized that this really did involve the rules and the power of cause and effect!

The person who possessed these abilities was no longer just a mutant.

That was… The domain of God.

Central Asia itself had a wide range of religious soil. The rulers used religion and feudalism to brainwash the people at the bottom. But over the generations, they themselves had also brainwashed themselves.

Therefore, even though Salaman was highly educated and had a good understanding of the world, he still believed in God.

Now that Su Yang had allowed him to personally experience a miracle and his body had been examined, he was now extremely healthy. He finally believed that Su Yang was a true God!

This was also the reason why Su Yang displayed so many of his abilities tonight.

After reading Salaman’s information that night, Su Yang knew that someone as conceited and cruel as Salaman had to establish a high and mighty image for him from the start.

Furthermore, not only did Su Yang have to show his strength, he also had to give Salaman hope. He had to let Salaman struggle and break free. He had to make Salaman become confused before he ultimately realized that he could not fight Su Yang.

Only through this experience could Salaman understand the true difference between the two of them, and completely submit.

For this purpose, the most useful ability was [Absolute Verbal Contract].

Therefore, after Salaman agreed to not leak the secret, Su Yang added this verbal agreement to the [Absolute Verbal Contract].

After that, Su Yang purposely put on a show with the Clown Sea Serpent to provoke Salaman into revealing his secret.

In the face of this ability that involved the law of causality, Salaman would not divulge the secret no matter what he did.

This way, the more Salaman experimented, the more he feared and respected Su Yang.

Thus, Su Yang had achieved his goal by truly playing with people’s hearts.

Sure enough, over the next few days, after Salaman couldn’t spread what had happened that night no matter how hard he tried, he was thoroughly convinced.

He even found the Clown Sea Serpent and wanted to join Su Yang’s organization.

The Clown Sea Serpent accepted Salaman on Su Yang’s behalf and promised to give him endless wealth and abilities.

The Clown Sea Serpent was not Su Yang after all, so he did not have any psychological burden when it came to making unrealistic promises. Coupled with his ability to see through people’s minds and brainwash, it did not take him more than a few days to pull Salaman into Su Yang’s team.

With Salaman’s support, Su Yang’s pace in Central Asia quickened.

Salaman was the crown prince and vice-president of the country, the Minister of National Defense. He was someone who stood above everyone else.

With his help, the forces under the control of the Clown Sea Serpent soon began to infiltrate the various territories in Salabar. Whether it was the economy, the military, or the other territories, Su Yang’s people gradually appeared.

The Clown Sea Serpent also took the opportunity to examine the talents of Saudi Arabia and bring them into his own system.

After using Salaman, the Clown Sea Serpent also gave him a lot of benefits. For example, for Salaman’s “Future Vision” plan, Jiadian Group directly spent 1 billion USD as the starting capital.

With this funding, Salaman transferred billions of dollars from the Salabar Kingdom’s sovereign fund to officially start his plan.

In order for this plan to succeed, the Clown Sea Serpent went to look for Little Deeny and hoped that she could use her data analysis ability and the three to four-star talents under Su Yang to perfect this plan.

In the end, Little Deeny gave the Clown Sea Serpent two routes that were most suitable for this plan.

Internally, Little Deeny suggested that Salaman carry out “Operation Tracking”, using this as an excuse to deal with the wealthy people of Salabar.

After all, the rich were wealthy, and the commoners were filled with the mindset to hate the rich. Therefore, if he found an excuse to collect money from the rich, the public would not be angry.

Externally, Little Deeny suggested that Salaman integrate Salabar Oil into a super-large state corporation and go on America’s market.

Oil companies were the industry and resources that every country coveted. Both Europe and America wanted a share of the oil industry. Therefore, when such companies were listed, the countries would only support them and not object.

With Salabar’s oil reserves, this company’s valuation would definitely not be low. With a pile of data, Little Deeny boldly predicted that once this company was listed, it could even be ranked among the top 10 super-large corporations in the world.

With this valuation, the mega-borne group is confident that it can get a huge amount of cash in the country with the most capital, magnesium. It can not only cash out profits from the oil trade ahead of time, but also use it to develop tourism and high-tech industries ahead of time.

The development of these two industries, with the help of this large corporation, would further integrate Salabar’s economy into the world economy. It was a great plan!

In fact, Little Deeny had already thought about the name of this super-large corporation for Salaman. Salabar National Petroleum Company, short for SNOC…

While Su Yang was gradually gaining control of Salabar, the international situation was also changing at every moment.

Draenor, who had just stepped onto the world stage, began his legendary experience.

To the outside world, he did not change the fact that he was the king of verbal cannon. He repeatedly fired at various countries and international organizations. He also decided to withdraw from the Paris Agreement signed last year and stop limiting industrial development for global climate change.

In less than a month, he started to carry out the medical reform plan set by the previous president of the country. He decided to abolish this medical reform plan and redesign the new medical insurance plan.

In addition, he also drafted a tax reform plan, which focused on cutting the corporate tax from 35% to 15%, reducing the personal income tax from seven to three, abolishing the estate tax and doubling the tax exemption.

At the same time, he had established a legal team to actively appeal and show his fair and open side.

On the other hand, he formed an investigation team and began to review the process of Jiadian Group acquiring Samsung. He wanted to know if there were any violations involved…
