"Do you know what it means when this news is not reported? It means that your fellow Americans do not even know that you guys have been captured!" 2

"So, the United States army will not bother to send any troops here to rescue you, let alone mobilize troops to come and rescue you guys. The United States Embassy has already rejected the opposition force's demands for a ransom of eighty million US dollars yet you are still expecting them to send troops here to rescue you? Do you think that your father is Buffett or Bill Gates?"

"I don't believe you!" Several of the American youngsters retorted in unison. "You must be lying!" 2

The Indian-American boy just now looked at Autumn a s he said loudly, "Autumn, you have to be careful of this man. I strongly suspect that this person is a member of the opposition force! Otherwise, even if he has great abilities, it would be simply impossible for him to arrive here within such a short time. Besides, don't forget that there are still one to two thousand soldiers from the opposition force keeping guard here. If he was not one of them, he would never have been able to make it in here alive! Look at him! He is wearing the opposition force's clothes, and he is even holding their weapon. This person is most certainly a

member of the opposition force!"

Immediately after that, he stared at Charlie before he said coldly, "This guy came all the way here to put on a n act and even slander our motherland. We do not know his intentions at all! Perhaps it could even be because the opposition force knows that you are an Oskian-American. That is the reason why they found a n Oskian from their team to come and set up a trap for you. I think that the opposition force must have arranged for him to come here to trick you into instigating a rebellion! You must not believe him!"

Charlie was about to burst into laughter out of rage because of this silly fool. So, he asked him, "Since you are so firm and certain that I am a member of the opposition force, aren't you afraid that I will use the AK47 in my hands to kill you since you are being so pretentious in front of me?"

The Indian-American boy was obviously a little nervous, but he still pretended to be very tough as he said, "I don't believe that you would dare to attack me! After all, didn't you guys take such great efforts to capture us just so you could use us as a condition to negotiate with our motherland? If you dare to kill me, what are you going to use as a negotiating term with our motherland, then? Moreover, if our motherland chooses to retaliate against you, that would be your doomsday! When the time comes, just a few missiles would be able to completely turn this place into flat ground!" 3

Charlie replied satirically, "Even if I were to include every single one of you, amongst the eight of you, aside from the fact that you guys are all brainiacs with much better academic performances, in terms of your family background, are your parents rich and wealthy? In terms of your background, can any one of your parents become a United States state assemblyman?"

"If they want money, you have no money. If they want power, you have no power. You even dare to be so shameless and brazen to wait for the United States Navy SEALS to come and rescue you? You think they will use missiles just to avenge you? It is not that I despise or look down on you, but even a small or medium-sized conventional missile would cost a few million US dollars, and ground-to-ground missiles cost tens of millions of dollars. Do you think you are worthy enough for them to use such expensive weapons to take revenge for you?"

The Indian-American boy had a very ugly expression on his face. He wanted to say something, but he suddenly could not replace any words to refute Charlie.

At this time, another boy of Oskian descent spoke up a s he said, "You can just stop trying to deceive and mislead us with wild rumors and fallacy. As we all know, the United States has always valued the safety of its citizens the most. What's more, all eight of us are pillars of society. So, our motherland will certainly rescue us at all costs. Now, you are actually running over here to try and brainwash us. Aren't you simply trying to convince us to cooperate with you guys so that we will criticize our country? I know of your tricks very well. As long as it is an American who is criticizing the United States, all of you would feel so excited that you can't even sleep. You cannot wait to release the video to the whole world!"

Charlie put away the satirical smile on his face before he looked at the young man who clearly looked like an Oskian as he seriously asked, "Let me ask you something. Are you an American or are you an Oskian?"

"Of course I am an American!" The boy blurted out without any hesitation at all. "You guys have already taken my passport away. If you go and take a look at m y passport now, you will be able to clearly see that I am indeed a citizen of the United States of America!"

Charlie nodded. He was deeply disappointed with this group of people from the bottom of his heart, and this was especially so for this boy who was of Oskian descent. Although what he had said was not wrong, it made Charlie feel very uncomfortable. 3

So, Charlie simply said coldly and indifferently, "Well, in that case, you can just wait for your country to come and save you, then."

After he was done speaking, he looked at Autumn again before he said seriously, "Miss Hart, I don't want to ask you the same question anymore. Since your father has already entrusted me with the task of saving you, no matter which country you think you come from, as long as you are willing to follow me, I will certainly rescue you and bring you back to Oskia with me."

"However, if you are truly unwilling to leave with me, then I, Charlie Wade, will never force anyone to do anything against their own will. In that case, I will have to trouble you to allow me to record a video explaining that you are not willing to leave. I will bring the video back with me to show it to your father so that I can give him an explanation for this matter, then!" 19
