Chapter 69 The Appearance Of Gabriel

“Master Yarrow was already dead before I went in. He was doused with gasoline,” Jonathan informed.

Amber gasped in horror. “Clearly, someone is trying to set us up. Our main goal this time is to speak to him to report on Felicia’s affairs and apprehend Gabriel. What do we do now that he’s dead?”

Jonathan could feel nothing but blind terror. It was a fear of the Heavenly Law and cultivation techniques. “We didn’t tell anyone that we were coming here and kept our whereabouts a secret. Despite Gabriel being thousands of miles away, he managed to figure it all out. He found the right timing to kill the founder and shifted the blame to us. He is a man of great power.”

Amber immediately realized the terrifying part of this issue upon hearing his words.

A thought suddenly occurred to her. “But what if Gabriel never thought about the possibility that you would start a fire? We didn’t even think about starting a fire at first.”

“Back in the forest, those venomous snakes could’ve guided us straight to the hut, but they intentionally used a zigzagged route. This is a strategy to allow us to discover that something’s amiss so that we’ll become vigilant and wary of the hut, then later burn it according to his plan. Besides, even if we didn’t do it, he would have burned the place down himself.”

“What do we do now?” Amber was deeply troubled. Although she was clever, she had always felt that her brain was slow to react whenever she was with him.

“If we go to the Crimson Onyx Sect again, we’ll definitely be dead. The best solution is to leave this place immediately, and we’ll leave it to you to mobilize the armed police force of Ackleton to arrest Gabriel. When the time comes, we’ll be defenders of justice. No one will associate the founder’s death with us.”

Amber’s eyes lit up, but they dimmed down shortly after. “Previously, you told me not to bring the squad along, as you were afraid of alerting the enemy. Aren’t you afraid of that now?”

“The situation has changed now. Before this, we still had a reason for doing it, as Gabriel was our only foe. But now that Master Yarrow is gone, we’re the enemies of the entire Crimson Onyx Sect. It’s impossible to catch Gabriel with just the two of us. So at this time, we’ll rely on the police squad. Even if we can’t catch him, we can report his evil doings to the Sect so that he won’t be able to remain there any longer. Once he’s out of the sect, we’ll find a way to catch him. It’ll be simpler this way.”

Amber wholeheartedly agreed with the plan after hearing Jonathan’s explanation. “Let’s not waste any more time and leave this place, then.”

“We can no longer leave through the forest,” Jonathan said pessimistically. “Now that Gabriel has achieved his goal, he will definitely get the snakes to bite us to death. Since we’re surrounded by mountains, we can only get out by passing through them. However, this will be a long journey as we’re very near Manchernius. If we’re unlucky, we may end up in a foreign country. There’s a war going on there, and it isn’t safe because of the extreme chaos.” He paused for a moment before continuing, “One more thing. Members of the Crimson Onyx Sect are experts in divination, and they may have figured out where we’re hiding. So I’m afraid that leaving this place won’t be easy!”

Amber chuckled bitterly. “It sounds like there’s no way we can get out unscathed!”

“Crimson Onyx Sect is proficient in Destino Art, so it’s not easy to survive after being captured by them in the first place.”

“But we can’t just sit here and wait to be killed, can we?”

Jonathan swept his gaze around the area surrounded by mountains in the dark before responding, “In this small town, there are certainly no large planes entering and leaving. Most of those planes should be helicopters. Let’s hurry up and steal one so that we can leave this place.”

Amber was shocked. “You know how to fly a helicopter?”

Jonathan rubbed his nose. “It’s easier than driving a car, so why shouldn’t I know how to fly one? I’ve even flown a fighter jet before.”

Amber looked at him as though he was a monster. “What exactly was your previous job?”

“Haven’t I already told you that I was a mercenary?”

“A mercenary can fly a fighter jet. Are you making fun of me for being uneducated?”

“Mercenaries have different ranks too, you know? I belong to the higher-ranked group.” Before she could say anything, Jonathan quickly added, “All right. Enough with the pointless talk. Let’s move before the Crimson Onyx Sect members realize what’s going on.”

Amber nodded in response.

The two immediately headed down toward the direction of the airport silently.

“Hey, Jonathan. I have a question,” Amber suddenly said in a low voice.

“What is it?” Jonathan was getting a little annoyed.

“I’m sure the helicopter requires a key to start the engine, right? Do we have that? We can’t jumpstart it like a car, can we?”

“Pretty much,” was his curt reply.

Amber was incredulous, but she fell silent upon seeing his confident expression.

However, they had just taken a few steps forward when Jonathan stopped once more.

“What’s the matter?” Amber asked.

“Do you think Gabriel might have already predicted our plan to steal a helicopter and set a trap there?”

“If he can predict that we’ll come here to find him, it’s not impossible for him to figure out that we’ll steal a helicopter!”

Jonathan felt extremely frustrated. He could devise ingenious plans against his enemies most of the time, but the person he was currently facing was Gabriel. Damn it! He’s like a seer who can predict the future, while we’re both completely clueless.

“Even if we don’t steal a helicopter, he can also predict that we’ll head in a different direction. If that’s the case, stealing it seems like the better option,” Amber said.

Jonathan thought that her words made sense. I don’t wish to ponder over it any longer. Whatever! Let’s do this!

He had always been quick and scrupulous in his actions. However, this was the first time he was doing such a reckless thing, courtesy of Gabriel.

Anyway, Felicia once told me that most of the Crimson Onyx Sect members don’t know a thing about martial arts. So worse comes to worst, I’ll use brute force to fight my way out.

With that thought in mind, Jonathan recomposed himself.

Below the mountain was Crimson Onyx Town, where Crimson Onyx Sect was located. Everything within this town ran on modern technology. They generated their own electricity and supplied themselves with water. They even had their own internet, to which they had used a large sum of money to connect to the satellite. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

It did not take long for them to arrive at the town.

The roads were very wide and smooth, like an expressway, while bungalows stretched away on both sides.

It reminded them of Bellridge, a town in Ustrana where Bellridge University was located.

Crimson Onyx Town could be considered a modern paradise. The air was fresh, and the people could stay away from worldly troubles while enjoying modern technology.

Jonathan and Amber could not help but yearn to live in a place like that.

All of a sudden, a car came toward them. Jonathan quickly pulled Amber behind a brick wall nearby.

He observed the car as it passed by. It’s a Mercedes-Benz that costs at least one million and above!

“How are the cars transported here?” Amber asked in a low voice.

“By plane, of course!” was Jonathan’s answer.

“Oh.”

The two then walked toward the airport, arriving shortly afterward.

The airport had no gates or guards, and they could not help but gasp upon taking a closer look.

Although it was not as big as an international airport, it had more than twenty runways.

Other than the lights on the runway, the rest of the lights were not on. The two entered the airport, noticing that their surroundings were quiet and that no one was supervising the area.

Jonathan dared not delay any longer, so he quickly said to Amber, “There will most likely be surveillance cameras here, so let’s hurry up and find a helicopter and escape from here.”

Amber nodded.

Very quickly, they set their eyes on a helicopter parked fifty meters to their right.

Jonathan and Amber seemed to have seen a glimmer of hope.

In all honesty, the entire town gave Jonathan a sense of oppression. It was nothing else, but mainly because the people here seemed so peculiar as if they knew everything about them. They were simply mysterious.

Jonathan and Amber quickly came to the front of the helicopter.

The hatch was tightly shut, and just as he was about to climb up and force it open, Amber suddenly let out a scream.

Jonathan, too, felt that something was amiss. He sensed imminent danger.

Turning around, he saw three people standing ten meters away.

Standing at the front was Gabriel.

They had both seen what he looked like, so they remembered him clearly.

The man was wearing a green suit, looking refined and dignified with his slicked-back hair. He had a handsome face and looked to be around twenty-five years old.

He also had a mesmerizing gaze that no one could forget.

The two men beside him looked very bizarre in their appearances as well.

The one on the left was wearing a black suit. He seemed to be in his twenties and wore a buzz cut that made him look all the more terrifying.

As for the man on the right, he was dressed in a white shirt. He had a lean figure and defined facial features and exuded the aura of a soldier.

He appeared to be around twenty-eight years old and had a nonchalant expression that did not betray any of his emotions.

Jonathan chuckled as he awkwardly rubbed his hands and turned to face Gabriel. “What a coincidence to see you here…”
