I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 205

Jonathan looked into King Sergiu and discovered that the latter acceded to the throne in 971 CE. That was almost three thousand years ago.

My calculations might be wrong.

Jonathan had to admit that his history wasn't that good.

It could only mean one thing—King Sergiu's treasure had been hidden for thousands of years.

Over the span of a few thousand years, many had tried to locate King Sergiu's treasure but to no avail. Can I find it? I'm not sure about that.

Nonetheless, Jonathan wasn't about to go back on his word. He knew he was placing his life on the line. Lailah stepped up, so it was his chance to shine. He would receive a plump reward if he were to succeed.

Jonathan continued researching about King Sergiu.

The more he found, the more interested he got.

In Chanaea, they were taught history that started five thousand years ago. Not many Chanaeans knew what the people from the other side of the ocean were up to. In the past, they assumed Chanaea was the only country in the world.

Yet, King Sergiu's era was spectacular—the Holy Knights expedition, their mythical stories, the era of the Holy Book, and the ruins of Radford.

King Sergiu, the Seventy-Two Demons, and many more were part of Epea's history and mythology.

Perhaps there were planets with living beings in outer space, or parallel worlds did exist.

Many mysteries and secrets remained incomprehensible to humans in the world.

Jonathan spent two hours reading everything about King Sergiu. He finally got an understanding of what the man was all about.

According to legends, King Sergiu was a nobody until he received his god's instructions. He then got to own the Sinai Bible, the Holy Chest, and the legendary King Sergiu's treasure.

King Sergiu built the Sacred Temple in Yeringham, and he became well-respected by Yartranians and Irethielians.

He gathered countless treasures and placed them in the Sacred Temple.

During 590 CE, the new Bera king attacked Yeringham for the second time. Three years later, the Bera army finally captured Yeringham. The palace and Sacred Temple were burnt to ashes. Many Yartranians were transported to Bera to be the latter's prisoners. Since then, the valuable Holy Chest, King Sergiu's treasure, and the Sinai Bible had gone missing.

For years, people tried to find the Holy Chest and King Sergiu's treasure but forgot all about the Sinai Bible. Perhaps everyone assumed it wasn't that valuable.

Unfortunately, they remained missing until today. The first person to search for the Holy Chest was an elder from Irethiel going by the name of Shamai. When Yeringham was captured, Shamai went into hiding and didn't get captured by the Berans. After the Berans left, he went to the remains of the Sacred Temple to find the Holy Chest. His plan was to steal it and hide it somewhere outside Yeringham. Shamai saw the legendary Holy Boulder among the ruins of the Sacred Temple. It was said that the Holy Chest was placed on this boulder. Nevertheless, the Holy Chest was nowhere to be seen. Where on earth was the Holy Chest hidden? At the beginning of the century, some scholars believed that the Holy Chest and King Sergiu's treasure were hidden in a hole beneath the Holy Boulder.

Jonathan was thinking that the Sinai Bible was hidden together with these treasures.

Feeling tired from all the reading, Jonathan massaged his temples. He got all the information from various posts online and wasn't sure if they were accurate.

The matter was extremely complicated, so Jonathan knew it was hard to find Sinai Bible.

He then recalled Mabel.

Mabel is the chief of the sixth division at the Department of National Security. She should know more than I do.

With that thought in mind, he hurried out of his bedroom and went to a quiet area to give Mabel a call.

Mabel answered his call almost immediately. “Jonathan, do you have any updates?”

Jonathan replied sternly, “Yes, I do.”

“What is it?” Mabel urged.

“I need to talk to you about something,” Jonathan told her.

“Sure. What is it?”

“You wanted a Fortune Pill, right? It's an Immortal Pill that is quite hard to come by,” Jonathan responded.

Stunned, Mabel replied, “That isn't urgent. If you can help, then help me to find it. If you can't, never mind.”

Jonathan chuckled. “What if I can get you a Ninth Immortality Pill?”

Shocked, Mabel chided, “D*mn it! Jonathan, are you taking me for a fool? A Ninth Immortality Pill is a Heaven Pill. Stop dreaming about it. You can't get it easily.”

Jonathan told her solemnly, “I'm not joking. Anyway, I'm going all out this time. I'm taking on a dual-level mission. Once I succeed, I'll get two Ninth Immortality Pills.”

“Are you serious?” Mabel was astonished.

Calmly, Jonathan said, “Let me explain everything to you...”

He then explained everything to her, including Lailah and his current predicament. He didn't forget to list out the benefits that he stood to receive.

“I've already agreed to it. I need to try one last time, even if it means I have to risk my life,” Jonathan declared.

A brief silence later, Mabel sighed. “I thought you'd stop after entering the Divine Realm. Alas, you're merely jumping out of the frying pan into the fire. You've already made up your mind, so I won't say anything else. Be careful, though. Let me know if you need my help.”

Jonathan didn't hold back and questioned, “You're knowledgeable, so do you know anything about the Sinai Bible?”

Mabel was quick to reply, “We don't have any files about King Sergiu. However, I believe the Irethiel government has information about him. I can't ask for their help, or they will assume we are planning something against them. Nonetheless, this could be a clue for you.”

She paused before adding, “I still think that King Sergiu's treasure is a legend. It doesn't exist.”

“I used to think the same way, too. In Divine Realm, the Divine Emperor's power is limitless. Since he wrote the mission on the mission board, I believe it exists.”

“I hope so,” came Mabel's answer.

“I think Lucio and Jeremy will cause trouble for me during my journey. Can you get my gun into Irethiel?” Jonathan inquired.

“Sure. But I think you shouldn't rely on the gun. It's a good opportunity for you to hone your skills,” Mabel reminded him.

She's right. Jonathan then agreed readily.

The call was soon ended.

The next morning, Lailah came to the hotel and called Jonathan in the lobby.

Jonathan climbed out of bed and washed up. He then bade Catherine goodbye. Before heading downstairs, he gave Simon a call and told the latter to inform Elijah and Lesley.

Jonathan went downstairs to meet Lailah, who came here in her Beetle.

Jonathan got into the passenger seat.

Inside the car, he immediately caught a whiff of her perfume.

Lailah was clad in a bright red coat, making her look like a city lady.

Her straight hair looked sleek and pretty. One would think she was a manager working in a company.

Jonathan also realized that Lailah had put on some lipstick that day. Her lips were lush and attractive. He was even tempted to give her a kiss.

After Jonathan made himself comfortable, Lailah told him, “It's not too late to go back on your word. The mission is dangerous, so I won't force you to come with me.”
