The three of them left the cabin where Zong Ge was being housed.
"There's some good news," Cang Xu received a report from his subordinates, "the Empire has responded, and they agree to let us go to Knife Harbor to rest and resupply."
The Fishman youth nodded.
To go to the Empire's secret port for rest and resupply was not a matter of just showing up.
Since they were pirates, and it was a secret mission, every resupply attempt had to be kept as confidential as possible. It was arranged by the Empire to minimize contact between pirates secretly recruited by the Empire.
"Have our requests been put to the Empire, and how did they respond?" the youth asked.
Cang Xu replied, "We don't have much credit left for our contributions, this time we need to first hand over some supplies from the ship in exchange for the supplies we need. As for our specific resupply requests, the Empire is urgently coordinating them and has promised to fulfill the vast majority at least."
