"Just now, a group of foreign pirates rushed in. Without saying anything, they fired indiscriminately with
machine guns. They yelled while turning the base upside down, trying to find what they wanted.They
have taken away all the valuable things, including the antiques, jades, calligraphy works and paintings
and the ammunition that you kept in the warehouse. They are all gone!"
When Gavin heard this, he almost vomited blood out of rage. All those items, which he had collected
for a long time, were worth a lot of money, but now...
"Where are the pirates from? Who do they work for? How dare them ransack my place?" Gavin asked
through his gritted teeth. He sounded like he was about to tear those pirates apart.
"I don't know. They are like rabid dogs. They didn't say a word and killed whoever they saw. There was
no chance to talk at all."
"What about you guys? Don't you know how to fight back? What do I keep you for?" Gavin cursed.
"Boss, it's not that we didn't fight back. It's just that there were too many of them. Besides, it was at
night ,and we've just finished eating, so we were a bit mentally slack ..."
"Shit! Shit!" Gavin's anger was beyond description. All the people in the car dared not breathe deeply in
fear that he would vent his anger on them. Those guys in the base were clearly not slacking off, but
having fun in Gavin's absence, and were probably drunk before getting attacked.
When Gavin finished scolding, the guy on the other end of the line added, "Boss, it's not over yet."
"There's more?!" Gavin asked angrily. He felt his head was about to explode.
"When they left, they threw several grenades and blew up the base, and I had a hard time escaping..."
"Why don't you fucking go to die!" After cursing this sentence, Gavin smashed the phone on the
ground. The scattered pieces of the phone showed how angry Gavin was.
Heng Zhang and Alisa looked at each other quietly and saw the fear in each other's eyes. They could
vaguely guess what had happened from Gavin's words.
However, none of them dared to ask, as they had never seen Gavin in such a rage before.
At that moment, in addition to the rattle of the van's engine, the only sound they could hear was Gavin's
gasps.
It took several minutes for Gavin to come back to his senses.
His base was on a secluded island, hard to find by outsiders, so he would never believe that those
pirates had broken in by mistake. If they knew where his collections and the arsenal were, there must
be a mole in his group. When he was absent, the pirates and the mole cooperated to destroy his base.
Who was this mole?
As Gavin wondered, several people came to his mind--- K and the two foreign mercenaries who were
abandoned last time. Gavin thought, Kerry had let them go, but they bore a grudge against him, so they
took revenge. All in all, they worked for money, not for friendship.
The atmosphere in the car was extremely depressing. Venus turned her head and looked out of the
window, thinking back to the innocent man who was strangled to death by Heng Zhang two hours ago.
She couldn't help but shiver all over.
If she hadn't been so kind and advised Kerry not to kill anyone, Kerry would have just killed Heng
Zhang. If so, that honest and loyal man wouldn't have died today.
At that time, she realized that not all people deserved forgiveness, and that some people who had done
too much harm should have their life ended.
She vowed that she would never care about that many things again, since life and death are
predestined and wealth and honor come down to luck.
Suddenly, she felt a pair of eyes staring at her from behind. She turned around and met a pair of
wrathful and cruel eyes. They were Gavin's.
She subconsciously shrunk her neck, feeling that Gavin was going to chop her up and eat her.
"Why are you looking at me like that? I did not mess with you." Venus hugged her arms tightly and
desired to leave this horrible place.
Gavin gave her a glance. He was just wondering if it had something to do with Kerry, but he didn't think
Kerry was that big of a man. After all, those vicious gangsters didn't believe in anyone easily.
Now, the most urgent question he faced was whether to continue looking for the treasure which was
nowhere near being found, or to go back immediately to reduce the loss. Because he had a strong
intuition that if those pirates were seeking revenge on purpose, the other bases may also be their
targets.
As he thought of this, Gavin said to Heng Zhang, "Get in touch with a few villas and ask if anything has
happened." He was so impulsive just now that his phone was smashed to pieces.
Heng Zhang immediately took out his cell phone to contact people in the island and the line was quickly
connected, "This is Heng Zhang, is everything all right these days?"
"Yes, nothing has happened."
"Good, keep guard over it and don't slack off."
Heng Zhang continued to make several more phone calls and got the same answer.
"Boss, everything is fine." Heng Zhang plucked up the courage to ask, "Boss, what just happened?"
Gavin's eyes were cold and he answered word by word, "The Moon Island has been attacked."
"Huh?" Alisa and Heng Zhang were both shocked. Although Venus didn't know what the Moon Island
was for, judging from the reactions of the three of them, it should be a very important place.
"Who did this? How was the damage?" Heng Zhang couldn't help but ask.
Gavin seemed to be trying to calm himself down and was silent for a long time before he said, "The
island was ransacked and half of the people died."
Heng Zhang felt his brain was going to explode. The island was ransacked?
The Moon Island was their home base, which contained guns and ammunition, as well as the boss's
priceless collections and a whole box of gold bullion, so 24-hour duty had been carried out every day.
Moreover, the island couldn't be found on the satellite and even in Gavin's group, few people knew
about it. All these years, the island had not undergone one incident, how could it be ransacked?
"Who did it?" Apparently Alisa couldn't believe in what she heard either. She already forgot that the
person she was asking was her inviolable boss.
"A group of pirates, they said." Gavin said this through his gritted teeth.
Listening to their conversation quietly, Venus was overjoyed in spite of her seemingly indifferent look.
She laughed to herself at the thought that Gavin was doing evil in the mainland, but someone took
advantage of his absence to destroyed his base. This was exactly what people called karma.
"Then, should we go back?" Alisa asked apprehensively.
"Those pirates come and go without a trace, and we're no match for them at sea. There's no point in
going back now." Gavin made his decision a second ago, "We have to find the treasure as soon as
possible, so that we can make up for all the losses."
Alisa and Heng Zhang were speechless. They felt deep in their hearts that going back as soon as
possible was the key, but because they were subordinates, they had to do what their boss told them.
Without the baby, the treasure hunting was able to speed up. Venus pretended to fall down from time to
time to slow down the speed, but Alisa was fully aware of her intention.
"Venus, if you continue to deliberately stall time, I don't mind letting our bodyguards stay with you, and
let them relax on the way." Alisa said this with a smile on her lips, but her tone chilled Venus.
"I can walk by myself." She retorted, quickened her pace, and walked beside Mr. Cai. Among all the
people, only Mr. Cai was neutral, or at least not hateful toward her.
The place they had come to today was the small county town where they had a fight with Kerry, and
they returned because Mr. Cai deduced that the treasure was most likely hidden there.
As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is also the safest place. Kerry and Tianye Mu would not
have thought that they would return.
The road uphill was very steep. When they reached a place where there was no path through the
bushes, Gavin pushed Venus to the front without mercy and let her explore the road.
She was afraid of snakes, insects, mice, ants and so on since she was a child, so before she took
every step, she would poke with a tree branch to remind the animals in the grass to get out of the way
as soon as possible. Otherwise she would be scared to death if she stepped on something soft.
After walking for three or four meters, Venus's calves and arms were all scratched by the bushes and
branches, but Gavin was still urging her, "Walk faster."
She got irritated, so she turned to shout at Gavin, "Put up or shut up! You are only good at bullying a
women."
"Cut the crap and keep moving."
When they finally reached a broader area, Gavin said, "Let's take a break."
At this point, Venus's clothes were all soaked with sweat. She came to a strange-looking rock, sat
down and wiped her sweat with her sleeves. Suddenly she felt that the ground under her feet was soft,
she subconsciously stepped on it two more times. But she quickly jumped off the stone with a scream
and ran away.
Some people were startled by Venus's behavior and looked at her with confusion on their faces.
"What the hell are you screaming about?" Alisa asked in disgust.
Venus was gasping and her face turned white. She said with a trembling voice, "The ground there
...there is soft. I don't know what is underneath."
Hearing this, Alisa stepped back silently. She was also a woman after all.
Heng Zhang took out his dagger from his waist and gradually move toward where Venus was pointing.
Whoosh! The dagger had glided through the air and was forcibly thrust into the earth. Its blade was
buried underneath the earth and only the handle was visible.
Everyone stared at the dagger. Time seemed to stand still, and even the sound of the wind became
weaker. After half a minute of silence, nothing had happened.
