Chapter 72
Gabriel patted Gunther on the shoulder and said, “We have to discuss this with our tour guide Isaac.”
They had not explicitly told Isaac about their destination before the trip. They merely told him that they planned to enter the mountain.
Gunther coughed twice, took a tissue to wipe his mouth, and found that the tissue was covered with blood.
Gabriel looked at him worriedly. “Gunt!”
Gunther smiled bitterly and said, “Gabriel, there’s nothing to worry about. What else can I worry about now since I’m already in this state? It’s a last-ditch effort, anyway. Gabriel…”
Gunther stopped and said to Oliver, “Oliver, please invite Isaac here.”
Oliver nodded and went out.
Seeing Oliver go out, Gabriel whispered to Gunther, “Gunt, just say what you want.”
Gabriel had been friends with Gunther for many years, so he knew him very well.
Gunther wiped the blood from his mouth once more and then spoke. “Gabriel, we have been friends for many years, and I can’t bear to involve you in this mess. Take Hailey with you. I entrust her to your care.”
Gabriel went silent.
Gunther added, “Gabriel, don’t try to reason with Hailey. She’s stubborn and won’t leave willingly. Just tell her that you need her assistance in purchasing a new set of equipment. We’ll leave immediately.”
Gabriel was silent momentarily before saying, “Gunt, can you find someone else to handle this? We’ve been friends for over two decades. You should know my character well. My entire life has been dedicated to identifying genuine and valuable cultural relics and historical artifacts. Henry’s Tristar Treasure is my final and greatest aspiration. Please don’t push me away. And besides… Despite my age, there are still many things you can’t do without me. No one else on this team has the same level of experience I have. Can you afford to go without me?”
Gunther remained silent, acknowledging the truth in Gabriel’s words. He knew that the ancient tomb was filled with intricate traps, carefully designed in accordance with ancient culture, and interconnected with one another.
