Chapter 707 (2/2)
Xia Lei’s body was still falling in midair, his hands still in the position that he had when he had killed the old htly and pulled the trigger The old woman at thehad only just moved her !
A gunshot rang out A bullet pierced the old woman’s forehead
The old woman’s movements also stopped, and the TAR-21 assault rifle fell froround Her body fell backwards
If given a tenth of a second more, she could have shot Xia Lei when he was completely defenseless in the air However, Xia Lei just hadn’t given her even a tenth of a second round, her eyes filled with anger in death
Xia Lei got up fro Jesus on the cross who looked at hi expression He couldn’t tell if he was angry or merciful, but the reek of blood pervaded the hall and made this ancient, divine place seem somewhat scarier
The old man was not dead His arrab the subround
Xia Lei kicked the subun away and then stuck his foot under the old man’s lower abdomen to flip his body over
He had left one alive on purpose
Xia Lei had actually had a choice earlier The oldfor the M82A1 sniper rifle while the old woman still had the TAR-21 assault rifle She could have killed hiive her that opportunity, and he had to kill her He had chosen to leave this old man behind because he had been the least threat at that tiulped for air and blood kept co out of his h he did not die at once, he still wouldn’t have much time left now
Xia Lei crouched down “Tell me, who are you? Who sent you here to kill ive you a quick end”
“Pah!” The old th, so his dirty saliva fell only three centimeters away, and splattered onto his own chin
“You really are old and stubborn” Xia Lei frowned and then put the Viper’s muzzle to the old man’s neck
TheThe old man screalared stubbornly at Xia Lei There was no indication of surrendering
Xia Lei lifted the ht, then I’ll give you sooing to die If death is this painful then what’s the point of life? Tell me, and I swear I will bury you three here Otherwise, your corpses will become food for flies and rats You don’t want to end up that way, right?”
“You are a heathen! You will go to hell!” said the oldhim were all useless
Was he to use more vicious methods to torture an old person close to death? Xia Lei couldn’t really bring hih he was an eneaze suddenly fell on the old man He paused, then reached his hand into the oldoff the olda wallet that contained euros; some fifties and some twenties and some smaller notes He didn’t have a credit card or a driver’s license He also had a lighter and MS brand cigarettes
There wasn’t anything to prove his identity
“Cough cough…” The old man sneered “You won’t knoe are but I know you’ll definitely die”
“Is that so?” Xia Lei suddenly opened the oldthe old man’s chest
There was a black tattoo of four arrowheads that formed a cross shape on the old man’s chest
Xia Lei had seen this picture in the hts Hospitaller
“I kno, don’t I?” Xia Lei said flatly, “You guys are probably frohts Hospitaller You know of the ht?”
The old man’s eyes flashed He closed his iven away his answer
“I saw your people in the hts Hospitaller I also received a letter that the group leader wrote to the Co He seemed to be called the Silver Baron of God His nahts Hospitaller’s history, so do you know this person?”
“Let me… Let
“Why do you want to see his letter?”
“He… the Silver Baron of God, Valleta is my deceased ancestor,” said the oldbut he didn’t give it to the old man “Tell me who sent you here and I’ll let you see this letter”
The old hter up “Okay, well, I’ve already read this letter It’s less to me now, so I’ll burn it up now”
“Wait,” said the old man, “I swear I don’t know We only received orders from our superiors”
“Are your superiors the top brass of the Knights Hospitaller?”
“We received an order regarding a secret letter and we are not sure of the identities of the people who passed the orders down to us”
This was similar to a mercenary killer’s operations where a killer didn’t knoho the eet However, it was possible that the oldthe truth, but Xia Lei didn’t have a way to prove if the old h one’s heart could have offered a basis for judging that but these methods could only be used on normal people This old , so it wouldn’t provide an effective uys met me on the other side of the mountain Why didn’t youuys knoould coed his questions This hat he wanted to know
