As the men continued their search, they quickly captured the attention of the island's inhabitants. In the dead of night, no one noticed the ocean surface turning faint red, as though being tainted.

In the meantime, Lana was on a search for Matteo as well. Ever since Theo succeeded on the mission, she had already been on the lookout for him.

To her dismay, she had not expected Hugo's security to be so advanced. Even though her team was still fifty kilometers away from shore, the seawater there was also detected by the island's laser beams.

"That old son of a-”

Lana scolded in frustration.

She grabbed the nearest communication device and attempted to contact Matteo once again.

"Matteo? Matteo? Do you copy?"

There was no answer.

The only thing that greeted her was dead silence.

Lana paled at the lack of response. Scanning the pitch black waters in front of her, a shiver ran down her spine. After a brief pause, Lana ordered her team behind her, "Bring me my diving suit."

"Captain Warlow?"

The police officers following behind her were startled.

They were still a long way from the island. Not to mention that laser systems were defending the waters. If Lana were to dive into the sea, even though she might be able to maintain a safe depth, there would still be a huge risk of her triggering the security system. If that were to happen, her body would be one with the ocean, carried away by the tides.

Naturally, everyone disagreed with her plan.

Enraged by their unresponsiveness, Lana threw the communication device onto the ground with a clatter before turning to take her diving gears herself.

Just then, something caught the attention of one of the officers. He noticed some movement on the island through the binoculars.
