A Man Like None Other novel Chapter 816

Chapter 816 A Powerful Background

At the same time, Jared was pleading in his room. “Rayleigh, just tell me what did Draco want the girls to do? What did he mean when he said those words?” he asked Rayleigh.

“I’ll explain to you another time. For now, you need to get some sleep. You have a lot to do on Dragon Island tomorrow. Remember, do not trust anyone that is not on your team when you’re on that island,” Rayleigh told Jared.

“Aren’t you coming with me?” Jared was surprised.

Rayleigh shook his head. “I’ve told you that the Deragons will find out who you really are if I were to go with you. You and the ladies will be enough for this mission. Melanie and I shall wait for your good news back here.”

Hearing that, Jared thought Rayleigh was making sense. Well, I doubt he’ll tell me anything else soon, so I guess I should just go to sleep. The men went to sleep shortly thereafter.

Jared and his team left the hotel and headed for the pier at daybreak the next morning. Even though they were early, the pier was already packed with people. A ferry that was five-stories high was docked at the pier. The ferry alone could take a thousand passengers, and that was proof that there were a lot of people heading to Dragon Island.

Although everyone knew that Dragon Island might be a one-way ticket to hell, they couldn’t resist the temptation of the reward. Everyone wanted to get their hands on the island’s treasure, and they decided to make the trip despite knowing its dangers.

The ticket inspector checked all the passengers for tickets. A lot of them had no tickets, and they tried to sneak past the inspector, though none made it through. The Deragons sponsored the ferry, so all the staff members were made up of the Deragon family members. As such, it was nigh impossible to ride on the ferry without a ticket.

“Did you see that? A Senior Grandmaster tried to sneak onto the ferry, but he got beaten up and tossed overboard. I wonder who the Deragons are.”

“It’s my first time hearing about them too. They’re probably a hidden clan. Even the ticket inspectors are Grandmasters. I think we should just play by the rules.”

Two martial artists were in a silent discussion not far away from Jared, though they weren’t silent enough to not let Jared overhear.
