Irving left the Green Ivy Company directly. After Irving departed, James called his subordinates into his office.

"Is there nothing wrong at the castle?" James asked his subordinates in a cold tone. Although James had appeared sincere and warm in front of Irving, he was actually a very ruthless person. He was neither sincere nor warm toward his subordinates.

The expressions on his subordinates\' faces were grim. While they believed the castle was free of issues, they also knew that James was a perfectionist.

"Why aren\'t you answering my question? Haven\'t you finished organizing the castle?" James said, slightly irritated.

Then, James turned his gaze to the subordinate closest to him. "You are the one in charge of the castle. You answer my question. Is the castle organized or not?"

The subordinate who had been singled out by James looked very uncomfortable. After hesitating for a moment, he replied in a trembling voice, "I believe the castle has been organized. However, I cannot confirm that until you have inspected it."

James stared coldly at him for a while. The atmosphere in James\'s office became very oppressive, and all of his subordinates were extremely anxious. They felt that James was dissatisfied with the response just given.

They feared that James would explode in anger right there in the office.

Just when everyone was bracing themselves for James\'s outburst, he unexpectedly smiled and said, "I have a lot of trust in you. Since you believe the castle has been organized, I will take your word for it."

James\'s response caught all his subordinates off guard. For a moment, they didn\'t know how to respond to whatever James would say next.

In reality, James enjoyed this kind of manipulation. He felt that by doing this, he could induce a dramatic emotional shift in his subordinates. At that moment of emotional upheaval, he could glimpse their true thoughts.

"You can proceed with the next steps. We\'ll be relocating the shelter to the castle in about a week. Before that, we must ensure everything is ready," James said, his tone returning to normal.

His subordinates no longer needed to tread so carefully as they had before.

"President, why the rush? Didn\'t you tell us earlier that the timing for the shelter\'s relocation to the castle wasn\'t set? A week is definitely too short. Even if we\'ve cleaned up the castle, a week won\'t be sufficient to prepare for the entire relocation," one of James\'s subordinates said, mustering the courage to speak up.

James nodded in acknowledgment. "You\'re right. I understand that a week is not enough, but we no longer have the luxury of time. Therefore, I expect you all to work without any breaks for the next week."

As he spoke, James handed a document from his desk to the subordinate responsible for organizing the castle. "This document contains the information of every member in our guild. Your task is to divide all members of the Green Ivy Group into different teams. These teams will be working continuously over the next week. I believe this will ensure that we can complete all preparations in time."

The subordinate accepted the document. He didn\'t open it to read because he had a rough idea of the number of members in the Green Ivy Group. If, as James said, all members were divided into different teams and worked non-stop, he was confident they could complete all the preparations for the shelter\'s relocation within a week.

"President, with your arrangement, I can guarantee that we will finish all the preparations in a week," the subordinate said earnestly.

James nodded expressionlessly. "You\'d better deliver on that promise. If there\'s even the slightest issue, you will face dire consequences. The success or failure of this operation will not only affect the Green Ivy Company."

James\'s words were not only directed at his subordinates but also served as a reminder to himself.

James felt that if he performed poorly during this operation, there was a good chance that Irving would not engage in a deeper collaboration with him. Without the opportunity for extensive cooperation with Irving, the strength of the Green Ivy Company would have no chance to improve further. Therefore, James hoped his subordinates would take this operation as seriously as he did.

After hearing James\'s words, his subordinates understood that this operation was crucial. While James and his team discussed how to complete all preparations for the relocation of the shelter within a week, Irving arrived at Ocean Group.

The staff at Ocean Group were already quite familiar with Irving. Therefore, they did not stop him, and Irving made his way directly to Vicky\'s office. After knocking on the door, he walked in without hesitation.

Vicky was slightly surprised by Irving\'s sudden appearance. "Aren\'t you supposed to be resting? Has something terrible happened again?" In her view, Irving had just left less than half a day ago. Furthermore, he had had a conflict with members of the Angel Guild before leaving her office. He should definitely take some time to rest.

The only reason that could compel Irving to return so urgently would be the occurrence of something even worse.

In response to Vicky\'s question, Irving smiled and said, "I actually don\'t need to rest for long; after all, I am quite energetic. And I can assure you, nothing worse has happened."

Irving\'s words provided Vicky with a slight sense of relief. However, he still hadn\'t addressed the purpose of his visit.

"Then, did you come here just to chat with me?" Vicky asked with a smile while organizing the documents in front of her. After all, Vicky was now the president of Ocean Group. Following her grandfather\'s severe injury, all matters related to Ocean Group had to be handled by her.

"I came here to tell you that I plan to relocate our shelter to a new location in a week," Irving calmly announced, shocking Vicky.

She set down the documents in her hands and looked at Irving with an expression of disbelief. "Why the rush? I remember you once told me that the relocation of the shelter couldn\'t be rushed. You still need more preparation."

Irving nodded.

He knew that he had indeed said that before. However, Irving quickly explained why he needed to relocate the shelter urgently.

"The current situation is vastly different from before. After the failure of the operation in the Desolate Canyon, the Night Blades will certainly seek ways to target us. The members of the Night Blades are well aware of the location of our shelter.

Therefore, we must move the shelter to a new place. During the relocation, we will inevitably face attacks from the Night Blades. However, I believe that as long as we are well-prepared, we can mitigate the damage caused by their assaults," Irving said confidently.

After hearing this, Vicky\'s expression still showed some hesitation, but in the end, she chose to trust Irving. "Not long after I entered the shelter game, I attached my shelter to yours. So I will definitely support your decision. Since you believe we should relocate the shelter, I won\'t oppose it. If you need my help, I\'ll have Benjamin act immediately."

Vicky\'s response made Irving very happy. "I do need your help! Because during the relocation, we must have enough strength for defense."

"Then I\'ll call Benjamin over right now! He handles all matters related to the Ocean Group," Vicky said as she immediately summoned Benjamin.

After hearing Irving\'s plan, Benjamin hesitated slightly before asking, "Will anyone else besides us be participating in this plan? Relying solely on our strength to ensure the plan\'s success is nearly impossible."

Irving nodded. His judgment aligned with Benjamin\'s, and he could tell from Benjamin\'s words that he was someone who would speak the truth in any situation.

"You\'re right; relying only on our strength makes it impossible to ensure the plan\'s success. However, during our operation, we will have assistance from others. The Green Ivy Group will definitely provide us with support, and the Green family\'s influence in Starling City will also aid us. With their help, our overall defensive capabilities will be quite formidable."

Irving had already considered which allies\' strengths would be utilized during the shelter relocation. Benjamin thought carefully for a moment and then said, "If we have so many allies, it\'s indeed possible for our plan to succeed. But you must prepare more thoroughly. I have a very important question to ask you."

Benjamin looked at Irving seriously.

Irving nodded. "Feel free to ask your question."

"Do we need to relocate the shelters of the Ocean Group members to the area around the castle?" Benjamin was very concerned about this question. He hadn\'t brought it up earlier simply because he hadn\'t found the right opportunity. Since Irving had now mentioned the relocation plan, this was naturally the best time to raise his concern.
