With only two and a half days left, Gideon knows he must fulfill the duty entrusted to him by the Lord, regardless of any obstacles.

With his strength, even if the Evans Family were heavily guarded by bodyguards, eliminating them would pose no problem for Gideon.

However, he was also well aware that once he attacked the Evans Family, escaping the Chinese government’s encirclement and suppression would be a daunting challenge.

In doing so, he would lose any opportunity to discover more magical artifacts from Zachary.

For a moment, Gideon considered whether he should simply find a way to restrain Zachary and force him to reveal information about his gang. Then, by following the trail, he could locate and eliminate the entire gang.

Yet, he hesitated, fearing that such covert actions would result in the news leaking out.

The Evans Family had eyes and ears everywhere. If they were to catch wind of his plans, it could jeopardize his primary mission.

The news of acquiring a powerful magical weapon was so incredible that he couldn’t understand why the Lord wouldn’t delay the plan to eliminate the Evans Family.

In desperation, he had to find another avenue by delving into Zachary’s involvement. If money could sway him and his gang, convincing them to swiftly sell all their magical artifacts to Gideon, it would be the ideal outcome.

For Zachary, his role was to provide Gideon with a final timeline, a matter of great significance to Edgar.

After Gideon mentioned that he could only wait until the following day, just before nightfall, Zachary nodded without hesitation and assured him, “Old man, don’t worry. I’ll do everything I can to assist you. If there’s any news, I’ll come find you at the hotel as soon as possible.”

“Very well!” Gideon nodded in satisfaction, emphasizing once again, “Remember, let them know that money is never an issue as long as I can gain something!”

Zachary made an okay gesture and smiled, saying, “I’ll handle it. You can trust me!”

Only then did Gideon feel a sense of relief. He turned to Zachary and said, “Since that’s the case, I won’t disturb your affairs any longer. If I have any updates, I’ll come here the day after tomorrow. If you hear anything, please inform me immediately.”

Zachary agreed, watching Gideon depart.
