Absolute Gate

Chapter 106 No brotherhood can compare to 50 billion

"Tell me, where did you hide that pot of the Fountain of Youth?"

Hans remained fully focused on maintaining the hypnosis, eagerly pressing for more questions.

Aba was already under mental control and answered involuntarily, but he actually said, "That pot isn't with me."

"What?" Hans asked in astonishment.

You just admitted it, so why didn't you reveal the truth after being hypnotized?

"You're talking nonsense! Why are you still being stubborn?" Hans was getting impatient, the pocket watch in his hand glowing faintly.

But Abba still said, "After I broke through the enemy lines, I gave that pot of the Fountain of Youth to Michelle. It only left me fifty grams of it."

“Michel?” Hans was taken aback.

"Are you out of your mind?! You actually gave away something so valuable? You kept only one-tenth of the five hundred grams?" Sedo's eyes were bloodshot, unable to comprehend it.

Abba said, "That was originally left by the chief to Michel, to his own son."

"One-tenth is the reward the leader promised me, and I only take what I'm entitled to."

"Huh? Michel is the leader's son?" The two were shocked. They were mercenaries who had only been involved for two months and had no idea about such a thing.

Furthermore, since the leader deliberately concealed the truth, they all thought that Michel was just one of the leader's confidants, like Aba.

"You idiot, you just give it to Michelle because he tells you to? Don't you know you should keep it all for yourself?"

Sedo cursed, never expecting Aba to be so stupid.

Hans frowned and said, "Why didn't you say so sooner? Did you have to cripple you and hypnotize you before you told me?"

However, Aba said, "Since you've come to my door, I know I'm in grave danger."

"It's fine if you mistakenly believe I took it all. If I die, no one will know that the things are with Michelle."

“I’m willing to take this secret to hell to protect Michelle. Consider this my life as repayment to the leader.”

The two were so angry they felt dizzy. They had been trying to get what they wanted, but Aba treated them like discarded shoes.

He deliberately feigned ignorance or even confessed, so that everyone would know that he had taken it, and then he would die to completely bury the matter.

If Hans hadn't possessed hypnotic abilities, he would have been completely kept in the dark.

Wu Zhong was also shocked. Well, assassins?

"You idiot," Sedo growled. "How do you think we found you?"

“Michelle told us you were here!”

“Michelle got the Fountain of Youth, and then immediately exposed your location, sending us to kill you. How stupid of you!”

Upon hearing this, Aba was stunned.

He then said, "That's impossible, Michelle wouldn't do that."

Sedo roared, "How is that impossible? Otherwise, how would we know you were here!"

Wu Zhongwei, who was secretly surrounding them, didn't seem to understand.

How stupid must Michelle be to betray her father's close friend who returned such a precious treasure to its rightful owner?
There's no benefit in him revealing Abba's location. He's leading others to Abba, and isn't he afraid that Abba will reveal this and expose him?

Only if Abba is safe will Michelle be safe.

Unexpectedly, Hans gritted his teeth and said, "Michel did not do that. He was afraid that if you told the truth, it would backfire on him."

"So, even if Michelle wants you dead, she has to protect your position."

“But now that we’ve come this far, there’s no need for us to lie to you. The information you received was indeed given to us by his woman.”

Abba stared blankly: "His woman? Paula?"

Hans nodded: "That's right. Paula told us."

"Now it seems that the couple are not of one mind."

"He probably didn't tell Paula about obtaining the Fountain of Youth, but he did reveal your location to her."

Paula really thought the item was with you, so she led us here to find you.

Wu Zhong pondered inwardly, "So that's how it is."

Michelle received something so valuable that she didn't tell her wife, but told others that Abba had taken it.

Paula also coveted this item, and probably found the right spot on the bed before telling others.

“It’s simpler with Michel, I know he’s in the Pacific,” Hans said thoughtfully.

Saido exclaimed, "It's hard to say, isn't it? With Long Qi and Michelle together, it's difficult for us to make a move. If we do, Long Qi will be able to guess what's going on."

Hans remained noncommittal, pressing Aba for an answer: "You said you have fifty grams, where are they?"

Abba pointed to the scattered ice crystal shields beside him, with a diamond-shaped ice cone in the center: "That's it."

"What? Isn't this just a decoration you made for your ice shield?" The two were stunned.

Abba said, "I froze the Fountain of Youth and replaced the decorations on my shield with something exactly the same."

The two suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

Who says the fountain of youth has to be stored in a pot? You can freeze it and store it as ice crystals, just as well.

Sedo couldn't wait to pounce on it, pry off the crystal from the Fountain of Youth, and play with it in his hand.

"Ding!"

His wolf claws were sharp; he would snap off a small tip and put it in his mouth.

But just then, a cold glint flashed by.

"Pfft!"

Sedo's wolf claws were chopped off at the wrist, and he screamed as ice crystals fell.

A blade of metal swept through, enveloping the ice crystals, and fell into Hans's palm.

"What! Hans! What are you doing!" Sedo's eyes widened, blood streaming from his neck.

That slash was too fast; if he hadn't reacted quickly and avoided vital points, his head would have been severed as well.

Hans carefully collected the plucked tip and ice crystal together, saying, "How rude! You need to eat this for such a minor injury? Are you made of gold?"

"This piece weighs at least three or four grams, it's such a waste."

Sedo clutched his severed wrist, stopping the bleeding instantly. He grinned, grimacing his teeth. "What are you saying! We can each have half of these fifty grams. You can't even bear to part with three grams of mine?"

Hans looked at him coldly: "Who said we should each have half?"

Sedo was furious, howling like a wolf, his hair and beard standing on end, surrounded by a bloody aura: "Hans! You're trying to renege on your debt!"

"You want to keep all our five years of brotherhood to yourself?"

Hans sighed, "In this world, there is no brotherhood that can compare to five hundred billion..."

Serto was completely stunned, stunned by these words.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hans suddenly manipulated the blades to fly like shuttles, launching a fierce attack on Sedo.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" "Pfft pfft pfft pfft!"

Serdo was no match for him. Moreover, Serdo was the one who was injured the most in the fierce battle just now.

At this moment, he was being cut all over by flying blades, with blood and foam flying everywhere.

He howled like a wolf and pounced: "We haven't even gotten the 50 billion yet! You're already kicking me while I'm down? Aren't you afraid of Long Qi?"

Hans said coldly, "Once you're dead, how will Long Qi know that the Fountain of Youth is on Michelle, who's right next to him?"

"Don't blame me, Sedo. If I don't kill you, you will definitely join forces with Long Qi to harm me first."

"I'll kill you!" Sedo roared in fury, charging forward with all his might.

He forced his way through the array of blades formed by flying shuttles with his own flesh and blood, a feat that could be described as being sliced ​​into a thousand pieces.

"You think you can take me?" Hans, holding his magic spear, faced Sedo's charge without fear, and thrust the spear out like lightning.

Sedo dodged with all his might, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow.

But Hans knew him too well; the blade had anticipated this and stabbed down from Cedo's side.

"Pfft!" Sedo's back was riddled with metal shuttlecocks, and he was pinned to the ground, twitching.

"No...no..." Sedo pleaded.

But Hans showed no mercy. The next second, Sedo's dog head flew up, blood splattering everywhere.

Blood stained the snow; he had personally killed his brother of five years.

At the same time, Aba broke free from the hypnosis, since Hans was focused on the battle and had no intention of controlling him.

“You…you really killed Sedo! All that talk about brotherhood is bullshit.” Aba rasped as he struggled to his feet.

Hans looked sadly at Sedo's body: "We were indeed brothers in the past, working hard together to make money and sharing life and death."

“But I’m better than him, and I work harder than him. I’ve already got this 5 billion, and he actually wants to take half of it. That’s too much.”

"Hahaha!" Aba laughed bitterly.

He looked coldly at Hans: "Maurice, you didn't kill him too, did you? Just so you could have one less person to share the money with?"

Hans was stunned by these words.

Although Abba had broken free from hypnosis, there was no need for him to deny the fact that he had killed Maurice.

Unless, of course, someone else really did kill Maurice!

A chill, more biting than the Arctic wind and snow, instantly swept over him.

"Not good!" Hans was about to be alert when someone suddenly appeared.

"Pfft!"

He was instantly pierced through the chest by a gun, and blood gushed out.

Someone was in the nearby ruins, amidst the exploding debris of wood and snowdrifts, when a man wielding a long spear suddenly appeared.

It was too fast. He had planned ahead but was caught off guard. Wu Zhong made a sudden move, and he couldn't react in time.

"Who!" He never expected that there would be a person in the mound of snow next to him.

It's true what they say, "the darkest place is under the lamp," meaning someone is lurking right under your nose.

Hans was terrified and retreated rapidly. Without hesitation, he pulled out the countless iron nails from Aba's body and shot them toward the target.

At the same time, he ate the small ice crystals that Sedo had broken off earlier, intending to rely on the Fountain of Youth to heal his injuries.

However, he did feel a tremendous healing power flowing through his body, and all his injuries were healed, except for the hole in his chest that wouldn't heal!

"What! Irreversible?"

He was going crazy. Someone had been hiding here all along, so close... and their strength was considerable!

His self-righteous identity as a hunter crumbled at this moment.

It turns out that they were the prey being spied on, and the other party was taking advantage of their infighting to reap the benefits.

"The one who will kill you." Wu Zhong gripped his fiery spear, his power surging, the spear flashing with incredible speed, countless iron nails flying through the air!

Upon seeing this, Hans broke out in a cold sweat and retreated rapidly to create distance.

At the same time, the iron nail that was propelled into the air drew an arc and stabbed upwards again, while ten throwing knives made of special materials also flew out from inside the coat.

"Magnetic Shuttle!"

In an instant, the sky was filled with flying metal shuttles, attacking Wu Zhong from all angles.

Wu Zhong's eyes darted around, and with a series of clanging sounds, his spear moved with impenetrable speed, sweeping across the battlefield with overwhelming force.

At the same time, Yang Chunsha and others also made their move.

"Crash!"

As Hans retreated, his feet barely touched the ground before he suddenly lost his footing and sank into the ground.

The thick snow cracked silently, revealing a pit that Yangchunsha had prepared beforehand, with sharp rock protrusions instantly emerging from the bottom of the pit.

"Calm down!" Hans, though startled, remained composed. He was extremely experienced in combat. Despite being in mid-air with nowhere to gain leverage, he suddenly thrust his spear downwards in a feint.

A faint halo emanated from him: "Buzz!"

The magic spear unleashed a powerful thrust, not as an attack, but as a reverse shockwave that forcefully propelled his falling figure upwards by more than ten meters.

He narrowly avoided the deadly rock spikes and leaped out into the air.

However, the team's offensive came one after another like a tide, giving him no chance to breathe!

Yak, Onion, Perilla, and Sweet Flag all burst out of the snow.

"What! So many people!" Hans exclaimed in shock.

He was careless, too careless. He trusted Sedo's plans too much, and came with malice, completely assuming that Abagan was behind it. He didn't expect that a powerful enemy would actually come.

Wu let his teammates surround and attack Hans, and didn't rush to join the fray himself.

He picked up Sedo's dog head, recorded a message, and sent it to Edelweiss: "The wanted posters for Sedo and Morris can be settled now, right?"

Edelweiss quickly replied: "Impressive, you took care of two so quickly. Are you injured?"

Wu Zhong raised an eyebrow: "Uh, I'm deeply shaken."

"A mental attack? Be careful, that's the most terrifying," Edelweiss said with concern.

It took Wu Zhong a while to calm down before he said, "Emmm... now that I've completed these two silver wanted posters, can I accept the gold one?"

“Of course, your Gold Mission privileges have been unlocked,” Edelweiss affirmed.

Wu Zhong stared at Hans, who was hastily fighting several people in the arena, and said calmly, "Help me accept the two gold wanted posters as well."

"Hans and Longqi... these two targets are very strong, are you sure?" Edelweiss confirmed again.

Wu Zhong said, "Hurry up, if we don't take on the mission soon, I'm afraid Hans will die..."
