Chapter 194 Treasure

Taylor was surprised. “What? Why would Caspian be here as well? Is Willow not worried that we’ll kill her friend?”

The Tigran special forces soldier replied, “Caspian has made it clear that he’ll be coming along if Willow is to enter the tunnel to solve the puzzle.

Taylor sighed and ordered, “Is there anyone else besides the two of them? Fuck it, let them in if it’s just the two of them.”

He had no other choice considering that Henry was not able to solve the puzzle.

He had spent way too much effort on the treasure to afford to fail at this point. He might not be able to accept reality if his efforts were to hit a dead end because of some door locked with a puzzle.

Taylor closed his walkie–talkie and ordered the special forces soldiers below him, “Caspian will be coming along with Willow. Once she opens the door, we need to finish him off right away!”

Countless flashlights shone toward the couple as soon as they touched down, blinding them.

Caspian calmly exclaimed, “Stop wasting time. We’re here to solve the puzzle as promised. Let the hostage go.”

One of the Tigran soldiers replied, “Mr. Taylor has been waiting for you. Let’s go.”

Caspian held tightly onto Willow’s hand as they went farther into the tunnel.
