"Well, first of all, we need to verify the information you've provided us," the manager said. "We'll need to send a team to investigate these secret entrances and see if they lead to the ruins in question." "I understand, but what about me? That's why I came here, you know. I'm willing to sell you the coordinates for the right price." "So, tell me, what would you reward me with for this info?" Nathan leaned back in his chair, his eyes flicking up at Emir's face. "How much were you hoping to…-

Instead of relaxing after that exhausting battle, Emir instantly checked for any other signals in the area. After a long moment of silence, he let out a relieved sigh, knowing that the battle was truly over. However, still cautious, he made his way to the nearest group of fallen bodies and took out his daggers, stabbing the gang member in the heart. He didn't want to waste any ammo, so he made sure of their deaths by stabbing them all. It was a gruesome and tiring task, but it had to be done.…

61 Massacre As Emir surveyed the area, trying to locate the rest of the gang members, he felt a sharp, searing pain in his left shoulder. It took him a moment to register what had happened, but soon he realized that two more gang members had snuck up on him, catching him off guard, shooting at him from beyond the range of his information gathering device. Despite the pain, he managed to keep his wits about him and quickly sought cover behind a nearby stack of wooden crates. The gang members…

60 Clean Up II His body tingled with adrenaline as he stood on the other side, the thrill of the moment coursing through his veins. Emir then turned around and fired a long burst from his rifle, aiming to take them down to the last of their group. His every motion was swift and calculated, as he continued to fire off rounds from his weapon, each shot finding its mark. Some went down instantly with a fatal shot to the head, while others tried to run for cover and were hit in the body as they…

59 Clean Up Emir answered as he followed her out of the room. They made their way through the slums and soon arrived at the Steel Rats' hideout, a lightly fortified warehouse tucked away in one of the many narrow streets populating the slums. Emir knocked on the gate, and a moment later, it creaked open, revealing a burly man with a sneer on his face. "I am here to talk about your base's extended warranty." Emir said with a smirk plastered on his face as he lifted up his HX-10 assault…

58 Cultivation And as soon as Emir did that, a searing pain shot through his body like nothing he had ever felt before. It was as if every nerve ending in his body was on fire, and he screamed in agony as he fell to the ground. He could feel the nanobots starting to work their magic, tearing apart his muscles and organs from the inside out. His muscles contracted and spasmed involuntarily, causing Emir to thrash around in agony. It was like nothing he had ever experienced before. The pain…

57 New Power II Emir smiled at the offer, flattered. "Thanks, Kiera, but I prefer to work alone. Plus, I have my own agenda to pursue." Kiera flinched but nodded in understanding. "Well, the offer stands if you ever change your mind, and if you ever need our help, just let us know." "Sure thing, you can always count on me for some extra firepower. And who knows, we could even have a non-work-related date sometime in the future." Kiera chuckled, "Maybe." "But never forget, I'm a hunter…

56 New Power They both leaned in, eager to hear what he had to say about the relics. "The first relic you brought in is a small figurine toy made of pure gold. It's an ancient artifact from the old world, and it's estimated to be over 1,000 years old. Based on the intricate carvings and the attention to detail, it's believed to have been owned by someone of great wealth and status." Kiera's eyes widened. "Wow, that's amazing. What's it worth?" The dealer smiled and said, "Based on the current…

55 Auction II Kiera looked at Emir, surprised, but he signaled that she should ask questions later. The bidding for the mysterious capsule continued, with more and more hunters placing their offers. It was clear that some of the attendees bid for it because they were interested in it simply because it was a rare and unknown item, while others may have been curious about it for other reasons similar to this. "4 million for number 61," he called out, seeing Emir raise the sign once again.…
