Chapter 572: Chapter 382: This Luck, It’s a Bit Against the Heaven, Isn’t It? _3

William Perry screamed as several bullets hit him!

Elijah Hastings and Douglas Cooper immediately fired in the direction of the gunfire, but the gunshots disappeared again.

Elijah and Douglas quickly pursued, yelling for Sean Knight to be careful as they ran.

Sean immediately pulled Oscar Knight behind a huge stone and urgently said:

"Brother, you need to hide well, don’t come out!"

Having said that, he darted out.

At this time, Aiden shouted from the crevice in the stone:

"Aaliyah is back... You guys better not let her live, she’s got a love-crazed mind – Lomonosov is dead, and you guys will never give up fighting her!"

As soon as he finished speaking, something round was thrown out of the forest and landed in the crevice where Aiden was hiding!

"Boom—!"

When the smoke cleared, a shower of blood and flesh splattered on the stone walls of the two sides of the huge stone.

A broken finger fell at Sean’s feet.

Sean sighed. Traitors had never ended well.

Intense gunfire echoed from the forest.

About ten seconds later, with an explosion, the gun battle ended.

Following that, Elijah and Douglas emerged from the forest.

"Is he dead?" Sean asked.

"She blew herself up," replied Elijah. "If she hadn’t insisted on killing that Aiden and revealing her position, it might’ve been more difficult."

"She should be the last one," Douglas said, searching the area with his pistol.

"Still, we should stay vigilant," Elijah searched as well.

Soon, they found the place where the bandits lived and also found Oscar and the others’ clothes.

Oscar changed into his clothes, went to check on William Perry, and discovered that he was already dead.

When William died, his eyes were wide open, seeming as if he couldn’t rest in peace.

"Ah—" Oscar sighed, his feelings unclear.

"Sean, there’s a problem with this dead William Perry..." Elijah quietly told Sean after searching a mobile phone from a natural stone house and flipping through it for a while.

"I suspected so." Sean nodded.

Sean had a chance to save his distant cousin when he was shot earlier.

However, Sean didn’t save him.

From the words his father said before and the things this cousin had done before Sean arrived, Sean suspected something early on.

Sean’s suspicions deepened when they exchanged the hostage, which almost confirmed it.

Why did he throw himself on the money bag?

Wasn’t it because he knew that neither side would shoot him?!

Of course, he overestimated his importance in the eyes of the opponents.

Oscar wasn’t a fool; he naturally suspected something as well.

The mobile phone Elijah found was William’s. He pretended to be kidnapped and had his phone confiscated, but had not deleted his previous contacts with Aiden, leaving a record.

"Sean, this time, it’s all thanks to you—and your brothers," Oscar sighed. "Otherwise, we might never see each other again in this life... It’s all my fault..."

"Brother, let’s not talk about that. When we get home, you treat everyone to a meal," Sean said with a smile. "They don’t lack money, but they haven’t had a good meal while being abroad."

"No problem; just one meal? I can treat them to a hundred and eighty meals!" Oscar laughed.

Sean didn’t want his brother to bear too much guilt, so he intentionally joked. As expected, Oscar’s mood improved a lot.

"First, fill your belly and regain some energy." Sean took out two pieces of chocolate from his pocket and handed them to him. Sean was significantly thinner after being kidnapped. He must have been starved.

"Alright."

"Sean, I found something good!" Douglas shouted at the entrance of another stone house.

There are many stone houses in this relic. Some were originally there, while some had been modified by Lomonosov and his people after settling here.

In fact, they didn’t usually live here. They would only come here after kidnapping someone.

This time, they stored a lot of supplies here, planning to wait for Sean and his people to pay the ransom and threatening him to cooperate to help find the treasure.

Of course, the plan was good, and at first, it went very smoothly.

However, they did not expect to suffer a crushing defeat on their home turf with clear firepower superiority and holding hostage chips.

When Sean heard what Douglas said, he looked up and was taken aback!

What Douglas was holding was truly frightening!

He never expected to see such a thing here!

Thankfully, they were abroad. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain if they were in their homeland!
