Chapter 219 Red Spider

As soon as Gabriel received the high-definition photo of the waitress, he immediately sent it to Elizabeth.

As expected by Zoe, it was not a simple woman. Elizabeth quickly confirmed her identity and called Gabriel back.

"Mr. Gabriel, I have found out the identity of the woman in the photo." Elizabeth's tone was solemn.

"Go ahead!" Gabriel narrowed his eyes.

Elizabeth said, "This woman is named Anna Salazar, also known as Red Spider. She was born in the Triangle Zone, and she is good at using poison."

"Red Spider is a martial artist at the Combat Level, not too strong. But she has a killing machine by her side, a man from the Dragon Kingdom, known as Blunt Knife on Sky List. His blunt knife is terrifying."

"The two of them stick to each other, and the killer couple is widely known in Usian. They have taken the lives of many experts. However, in recent years, they seem to have joined some organization and rarely appear in public."

"I never expected Red Spider would appear in Silverwood to assassinate you."

Her words caused Gabriel to fall into contemplation.

He was sure that he had no conflicts with Red Spider or Blunt Knife, so assassinating him must be an order from the organization they had joined.

If his previous speculation was correct, the foreign assassins he encountered yesterday were probably also under the command of this organization.

He pondered for a long time, but it didn't seem like he had ever offended any major organizations.

Could it be the God Temple?

With this thought, he said to Elizabeth, "Do you have a photo of Blunt Knife? If you do, send it to me. Also, continue investigating to find out which organization Red Spider and Blunt Knife have joined."

Since they were famous in the Underground World, he had to count on Elizabeth to investigate.

Once he figured out the organization, he would definitely root it out.

"The photo of Blunt Knife is not a secret. I can get it for you and will send it to you later." Elizabeth thought for a moment and continued, "Mr. Gabriel, I must remind you that although Red Spider's combat strength is not great, she is an extremely dangerous assassin. Her expertise in poison alone instills fear. You can't be careless."

Red Spider had awe-inspiring fame.

In the past few years, many experts had fallen by her hands. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

They were all killed by poison.

It was hard to guard against poisoning, so even though Gabriel was highly skilled, she still had to remind him.

"I know."

After hanging up the phone, Gabriel felt heavy-hearted.

He couldn't help but light a Liggett Select cigarette and start smoking.

A poison expert was truly troublesome.

He wasn't afraid of her, but he couldn't guarantee the safety of his friends and family.

Today, luck was on his side as he was present.

He didn't dare imagine the consequences if he hadn't been there.

Stella, Ava, Angela, and Vicky would have all been killed.

That kind of outcome would surely have devastated him.

Noticing his furrowed brows, Zoe spoke up from the front of the computer, "Gabriel, I know you're in a difficult situation, but these are the rules of the game."

"Since you choose to be involved emotionally and have numerous attachments, you will inevitably exhaust yourself. Along with the warmth of love, you will also experience the pain of it."

"When you are alone, you may be invincible. But once you have attachments, you will turn from the God of War into a person with emotions."

"There is no right or wrong. What's important is staying firm in your choice because the people bound to you have willingly chosen to be by your side."

With Gabriel's abilities, he could be invincible if he only cared about himself.

But she knew that deep within his seemingly uninhibited heart, there was a soft spot for human emotions.

Therefore, he couldn't be ruthless.

Gabriel would have many women, and there would also be bonds beyond blood relations.

Once he had them, whether it was romantic love or familial love, they would become his weak spots that his enemies would attack.

The incident today was an example.

The four women were nearly killed by Gabriel's enemies.

It was not something he could accept.

Zoe could sense his hesitation and self-doubt.

He was doubting his choice to get involved in worldly conflicts.

She wanted to tell him that his choices were not wrong. It was emotions that made them human.

Emotions gave warmth and meaning to life.

"Thank you, Zoe!"

Zoe's words relieved him a lot.

He was grateful to have Zoe by his side, always making him feel understood and accepted.

He slowly let out a sigh and said, "After the club opens tomorrow, I will leave for Gumoldur City. It's an opportunity to get involved in the affairs of the Ghostly Purgatory Hall there. If I can gain the support of the local clan, it will greatly benefit me in securing the Ghostly King position next year."

"Besides that, I want to take the danger away with me."

"After today's incident, I believe my opponents won't make another move soon. Since their target is me, they will definitely follow me to Gumoldur City and take action there."

"The poisoner is vicious. Only if she follows me to Gumoldur City can I put my mind at ease."

Zoe had always respected his decisions, but she reminded him. "Gabriel, there are two things I need to remind you about."

"First, this poisoner may not necessarily restrain herself. She wasn't bent on killing you today, and her actions were playful and provocative. Otherwise, she wouldn't have used poison so extensively."

"I'm worried that she might make another move during the opening when there are a lot of people."

Gabriel couldn't help but frown. Zoe had a point.

Indeed, the poisoning today didn't specifically target him.

After all, it was uncertain if he would consume the poison, whether it was in coffee or juice.

For a skilled poisoner, alerting her enemy was a big mistake.

Red Spider's actions had a strong sense of provocation. She treated the assassination as a form of entertainment.

Zoe continued, "Secondly, Vicky cannot be trusted. And there's something fishy about the Ghostly Purgatory Hall clan in Gumoldur City. In any case, when you go there, you must be fully prepared and not take it lightly."

Judging a person solely based on appearances was impossible.

But their past actions could serve as a basis for judgment because those actions had objectively happened.

Considering Vicky's years of control over the Gumoldur City clan and her effortless maneuvering between the Underground World and political figures in such a prosperous metropolis, it went without saying that she was cunning and resourceful.

It was abnormal for a woman like her to be betrayed by her subordinates.

Either her persona was false or there was more to the rebellion.

It took time to build a persona, so the possibility of hidden motives in the rebellion was higher.

If that were the case, Gabriel's trip to Gumoldur City would surely be a dangerous one.

Gabriel nodded and once again fell into contemplation.
