Chapter 24

As the cars drew closer, Locke and the others heard voices.

“Captain, why are there so many people here?” Martin asked as he looked at the countless cars that were about to arrive.

With so many people here, they wouldn’t be able to obtain many Deadly Spectre Puzzles.

After all, they were considered average in the outside world. They wouldn’t be able to compete with those very strong organizations.

In terms of individual strength, they were very strong, but other people had their own groups.

There was simply no way to compare.

The strength of a team was always greater than an individual.

They all understood these principles.

Thus, their team only had a total of thirty people, but in terms of overall strength, they weren’t the strongest.

“How did this happen?” Locke was also a little confused. Why did they come here so quickly.

It shouldn’t be possible after all, they should be the first people to receive the news.

They were also the first batch of people to come to this place.

The people from the outside world shouldn’t have reacted so quickly.

At this moment, Locke’s phone suddenly rang.

Looking at this unfamiliar number, Locke was stunned for a moment before picking up the call.

“Hello? Who are you?” Locke was puzzled.

“You don’t remember me? Just now, you guys were threatening to hunt me down, but now you don’t even recognize me?” The other party’s voice was mocking, making Locke feel uncomfortable.

“You? You’re Maron!” Locke instantly understood. This person was Maron.

“What, you can’t wait anymore? Are you in such a hurry to die?” Locke smiled and his smile was very sarcastic. “I gave you more time to live, yet you insist on making this call at such a critical moment. Are you courting death?”

“Death is impossible. I just have a gift for you. I don’t know if you like it.” a delighted voice sounded from Locke’s receiver.

“What…”

Just as Locke was about to speak, he realized a problem.

These people were most likely behind the news that had been leaked.

Otherwise, how could they have arrived so quickly?

“So it’s you. Why didn’t I think of that? I like this gift very much, but I also have a gift for you.” Locke said playfully.

In his eyes, Maron was already a dead man, but it was only a matter of time.

“Oh, a gift in return. It’s pretty good. I’m waiting for your gift.” the other party said.

“I’m afraid you can’t afford this gift.” Locke looked at the tallest building. He already knew Maron’s current location.

“How big can it be? As big as the one I gave you?” The other party continued.

“Hahaha, you’re really an interesting guy. I originally wanted to take you into the organization, but now I’m afraid it’s impossible.” Locke’s face was full of frost.

“You’re quite interesting too. You want to keep all the Deadly Spectre Puzzles here for yourself. Isn’t that interesting? So, this gift of mine is very good.”

The two of them looked at each other from a few kilometers away.

“You’re very good. Don’t run away. You’re so good at talking. I really want to see you. The person ranked first on the list is indeed not simple.” Locke’s words were full of mockery.

“Run? is that possible? I still have a good show to watch. Why would I run away?”

Without waiting for Maron to say a second sentence, Locke crushed the phone with his hand.

The people standing behind Locke had never seen the captain so angry before.

“Captain, why don’t I bring people to kill him now?” The voice from Martin’s phone was also very angry.

He couldn’t wait to go over and tear him into pieces.

“No need. We’ll look for him after the matter here is over. He won’t leave. He still wants to watch a good show.” Locke revealed a meaningful smile.

“Then, are we still going to look for the Deadly Spectre Puzzle?” At this moment, Mike came forward and asked.

“Yes, why aren’t we looking? I don’t care who he is. As long as he dares try and stop me, you can’t blame me for not being as polite as I should have been,” Locke said ruthlessly.

He was, after all, ranked second on the leaderboard and could be not bullied by others.

As they spoke, a few cars had already arrived downstairs where they were.

The people in the cars all got down and jumped up.

“Yo, isn’t this our Captain Locke? Why do you have the time to come to such a place? This kind of place can also catch your eye?”

The middle-aged man in the lead wore a combat uniform and an assault rifle hung on his chest. He looked at Locke and said.

“Hmph, how can you be any better? This is a Restricted Zone. If someone as timid as you can come, why can’t I?” Locke said coldly.

“Hahaha, our Captain Locke is angry. Please don’t be angry. We can’t afford it!” The man said sarcastically.

“Other than your mouth that can only speak nonsense, what else can you do?” Locke said with his eyes narrowed.

“It’s fine as long as you know how to speak. Why would a person need so many advantages?” That person continued to say.

At this moment, one of the lackeys behind the man with the assault rifle stepped forward and whispered something.

When that person stepped back, the man with the assault rifle immediately laughed out loud.

“Hahahaha, I knew it. Why did captain Locke’s magnanimity become so small? It turns out that he was just ridiculed by someone. I’m dying of laughter.”

“That person seems to be Maron, right?!” The man with the assault rifle asked with a laugh.

“Maron, where are you? Come out and meet me. I want to see what the person, who mocked our Captain Locke, looks like!” The man with the assault rifle shouted towards the sky.

“You! Hmph, I don’t want to talk nonsense with you!” Locke’s face was terrifyingly gloomy.

“Hahaha, Alright, let’s not talk about you anymore. We still have to find the Deadly Spectre Puzzle. We don’t want to be delayed because of you.”

After saying that, the man with the gun was about to leave with his men.

“Hey, Alan, be careful later. Don’t fall,” Locke said to the back of the man.

Alan did not even turn his head and waved his hand. Then, he left with his men.

“Captain…” Martin hesitated.

More and more people were coming because there were lights on outside of Olly Town.

At this moment, Martin’s phone suddenly rang.

“Hello?” He picked it up.

“I couldn’t contact Mike, so I contacted you. Because someone spread the news that there are a lot of Deadly Spectre Puzzles in Olly town. You have to be careful. Many organizations have gone to Olly Town.”

“Got it.”

Martin hung up the phone.

“Captain, someone spread the news that there are a lot of ghosts here. That’s why there are so many people.” Martin said to Locke.

“Got it. We’ll act now.”

After saying that, Locke looked at the tall building again.

Then, he left with the group.
