I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 212

Isaac's words were exactly what Jonathan had in mind. However, both he and Lailah had no choice but to believe that King Sergiu's treasure existed. Otherwise, they would lose their only source of motivation.

As Isaac couldn't provide other information regarding the legend of the Third Sacred Temple, Lailah caved in and asked, “Mr. Mendenhall, is there anyone here who knows a lot about King Sergiu's treasure, the Crying Wall, or the ruins of the Sacred Temple?”

Isaac pondered over her question for a moment. “There is someone who has conducted thorough research on King Sergiu's treasure.”

“Who is it?” Lailah urged as her eyes lit up.

Isaac told her, “That would be Professor Ranen Horowitz. He spent almost fifty years researching King Sergiu's treasure, and he's now an elderly man. However, he still failed to find any clues leading him to King Sergiu's treasure.”

Jonathan and Lailah's hearts sank. The researcher failed to find any clues despite researching for the past fifty years, so it seemed impossible for them to find the treasure in a month.

Despite so, Jonathan and Lailah were determined and refused to give up easily. They were already prepared to give their all before accepting the mission.

Lailah asked, “Mr. Mendenhall, can you introduce us to Professor Horowitz?”

“Sure, no problem. I can ask my men to invite Professor Horowitz here as long as he's in the city,” Isaac agreed readily.

“Thank you,” Lailah expressed her gratitude.

Isaac chuckled and replied, “No problem.”

He then went to the balcony to make the call.

Five minutes later, Isaac returned with a frown marring his brows. “Professor Horowitz has stage four liver cancer and can't live for long. His family refused to let him meet you.”

Lailah asked, “Can you help us find out which hospital he is in? We can visit him ourselves.”

Isaac told her, “He has been admitted to Peace River Hospital. I need to ask about his ward.”

“Thank you!” Lailah said.

“You're welcome,” Isaac responded.

He then found out Ranen's ward for them. After getting the information they needed, Lailah got to her feet. “We won't be staying for lunch. Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Mendenhall. Jonathan, let's go.”

Jonathan stood up and shot Isaac an apologetic look. “My apologies.”

Isaac found Jonathan more likable, so he said, “That's a pity. I shall extend an invitation next time.” After a pause, he summoned Raul to give Jonathan and Lailah a ride.

After making the arrangements, Isaac walked Jonathan and Lailah to the door.

Raul drove a Mercedes-Benz with Jonathan and Lailah in the back seat.

The duo had earned Raul's utmost respect after everything that had happened.

After driving out of Mylers Residences, he glanced at the rearview mirror and asked, “Your destination is Peace River Hospital right?”

“Yes, that's right,” came Lailah's answer.

“No!” Jonathan cut in.

Raul was taken aback, for he had no idea who to listen to.

Lailah shot Jonathan a furious look. “What was that?”

Jonathan reminded her, “Did you forget why we came here? Our target is Gabriel.”

Lailah still couldn't understand his intention. “We don't have news about his whereabouts, right? We will deal with him once we receive news.”

Jonathan remained unfazed. “I came to Mr. Mendenhall not because I thought he could help us find Gabriel. Gabriel is a sly fox. Even if we go to him, he can escape the scene before we arrive.”

Lailah grew curious. “Then why did you come here?”

Raul found it odd, too.

Jonathan explained, “Gabriel is good at scheming. If I'm not mistaken, he'll soon come to Mr. Mendenhall and come up with a scheme to persecute us. Thus, I've decided to wait in Mylers Residences. We shall kill Gabriel the moment he arrives.”

Lailah's eyes lit up. She glanced at Jonathan as her admiration for his intelligence grew.

Raul spoke up. “What should we do now?”

Jonathan turned to look at him. “Raul, here's a chance for you to make a contribution. Your chance of success is entirely up to you.”

Raul was baffled. “Mr. Lawson, what do you mean?”

Jonathan revealed, “My enemy might hold Mr. Mendenhall hostage, so we need to head back to save him. I shall give you the credit and claim that you were the one who insisted on heading back.”

Something glinted across Raul's eyes. Seemingly excited, he said, “Thank you so much, Mr. Lawson.”

Jonathan chuckled. “No problem. Mr. Mendenhall and the rest can't know about this. We can't afford to alert the enemy.”

“I know what to do,” Raul assured him. He knew that this wouldn't bring him any harm. Even if Jonathan and Lailah wanted to harm Isaac, he would be no match for them.

Night fell, and Grand Yeringham Hotel was still brightly lit.

In the presidential suite, Gabriel kept muttering as he was busy calculating something.

After concluding his calculations, he opened his eyes without warning.

Lucio had been watching him from aside carefully and immediately asked, “Have you gotten something?”

Sweat beaded on Gabriel's forehead. Staring ahead intently, he ordered, “Yes. You need to hurry up, or they will start to counterattack us.”

Lucio could barely hide his shock. “Why is that?” he urged.

Gabriel revealed, “In the future, I distinctly saw them getting help from a local big shot. Jonathan told the big shot to investigate us, so our location will be exposed soon. Once Jonathan and Lailah joined hands to stop us, we won't be able to survive.”

The color drained out of Lucio's face. Flustered, he asked, “What should we do?” He had completely given up on reasoning before Gabriel.

Gabriel told him, “I can't figure out who the big shot is, but he's in the southeastern area. Find out who is more influential there. Jonathan must've enlisted the help of someone from the underground circles instead of the government. That would be too complicated and time-consuming.”

“I'll do that right now,” Lucio promised.

Gabriel nodded.

Lucio then left in a hurry.

Half an hour later, Lucio's investigation proved fruitful. “There are two big shots in the northeastern area—Isaac and Benoni,” he reported.

Gabriel calculated with his fingers and soon came up with the final answer. “It's Isaac. Go find Isaac,” he exclaimed.

“Got it!” Lucio responded and made to leave.

Before he could leave, Gabriel called out, “Wait a minute!” He pulled out a tiny porcelain bottle and instructed, “This is Incense of Lost Souls, created by the Crimson Onyx Sect. When you see Isaac, sprinkle this on his body. The incense will transfer to Jonathan and the rest if they come into contact with Isaac frequently.”

Lucio nodded vehemently. “Got it.”

Gabriel reminded him, “Use Isaac to stall time with Jonathan and the rest.”

“I understand,” Lucio assured him.

He took the porcelain bottle and left.

An hour later, Lucio appeared outside Mylers Residences.

He was skilled enough to climb over the wall and sneak into the residential area stealthily.

Lucio then located Isaac's mansion.

There were many mansions in the residential area, and Lucio didn't manage to find out Isaac's mansion beforehand.

However, he had achieved the cultivation level of Celestial Soul and was skilled in observing and discerning different auras.
