Just when Xue Chao was about to order the ship to set sail, his subordinates noticed another large ship behind theirs.
"Officer, it seems to be a vessel from the Fire Department."
Xue Chao went to the stern, squinting to see clearly. As the ship drew closer, he noticed the burning flames depicted on its hull.
"It really is a Fire Department vessel. What are they up to?"
Bai Feng said, "Officer, the intentions of their approach don't seem good. To suddenly have a ship from the Fire Department appear at this time probably isn't a positive sign."
Jiang Xiaobai said, "Officer Xue, I agree with Bai Feng's assessment. We just discovered a medium-sized mineral deposit here, and then the Fire Department vessel appeared. Could they be coming to seize the minerals?"
Xue Chao had this concern as well. Although he brought all his subordinates, there was hardly any assurance they could withstand the Fire Department.
