Supremely Talented Tyrant

Chapter 998 - 997: Truly Worrisome

"Boss Kelvin, it's this room ahead!"

Arriving at the hotel's top floor, one of Kelvin's subordinates looked at the computer, pointed to the room where Hao Jian and Shu Ya were, and said.

"Everyone, get ready for battle!"

Kelvin nodded, slowly raising his hand. As soon as his hand gesture was seen, the subordinates hurriedly readied their guns, their eyes fixed on Kelvin.

"Hehe, ready, let's go!"

Hearing the commotion outside, Hao Jian quickly picked up Shu Ya, moved to the window, glanced at the twenty-plus floor height, gave a cheeky smile to the pale-faced Shu Ya, and then stomped hard, holding Shu Ya as he jumped down!

In the instant they jumped down, Hao Jian's feet acted like suction cups, sticking to the wall as he rushed towards the ground rapidly, his feet moving continuously, the wind rushed by his ears, Shu Ya tightly grasped Hao Jian's clothes, too afraid to open her eyes.

"Fire!"

As Hao Jian jumped out the window, Kelvin, outside the door, also at that instant, swung his hand down fiercely, a deep voice emanated abruptly from his mouth.

"Bang bang bang!"

Accompanied by his order, a barrage of gunshots suddenly reverberated, endless bursts of flame erupted from the dark gun barrels, ultimately striking the large door, leaving one pitch-black hole after another.

After a minute, Kelvin slowly waved his hand, signaling his men to put away their guns, and he, leading the way, directly kicked open the already shaking door, fragments flying everywhere, as he walked into Hao Jian's room.

"No one?!"

Upon entering, Kelvin saw an empty room, his face instantly darkening, then pointed to the room, shouting, "Everyone,

With his current fortune, losing billions doesn't warrant him making such a grand move; suffering losses of manpower and so much financial resources for billions is unthinkable for anyone.

And the reason for his attention to the Emerald Gemstone is because of the more crucial item inside, the emerald-made key Hao Jian obtained.

Even if the gem is lost, as long as the key remains, Akara wouldn't care, because that gem was actually stolen from gemstone tycoon Saul.

Rumors have it this gem contains items related to Saul's Treasure Vault...

The contents inside the Treasury are far from simple just gemstones, almost all of Saul's collections over the years are hidden inside, worth hundreds of billions.

A few millions meant nothing to Akara, but a billion-dollar deal was something he couldn't ignore. Once it was done, he'd never have to worry about running out of money again for the rest of his life.

"That old Saul is probably about to lock the city down, isn't he?"

Watching Kelvin's men, Akara felt a moment of daze, but in the next instant, his eyes turned cold.

Indeed, he didn't have much time left. Once Saul locked down the city, even he wouldn't be able to escape!

Saul, a gem mogul in several nearby countries, wielded financial power and authority that dwarfed Uli by hundreds of times, and what was well-known was his Treasure Vault!

This treasure vault was rumored to hold all of Saul's wealth, and the key to unlock it was known only to Saul himself. Akara had exhausted all his resources just to pinpoint the location of Saul's Treasury key.

"Dare to step forward again, and don't blame us for being rude!"

As mercenaries, none were easy to deal with. Living with their heads tied to their belts honed in them a fearless character.

Thus, these thirty-plus mercenaries, upon seeing Akara's hundred-strong men, displayed no fear in their eyes but rather a veiled excitement, their guns instantly cocked!

"Charge!"

Akara couldn't be bothered to waste words with these men and directly commanded his subordinates to fire, while he swiftly moved, hiding behind some of his men, cold eyes watching the shootout silently.

"Bang bang bang!"

The gunfire echoed, and Kelvin, inside the room, heard the commotion outside. A flash of anger crossed his originally somber face, and he slapped the table fiercely, shouting, "What's happening?!"

"Boss Kelvin!"

Just as he finished speaking, a blood-soaked subordinate ran over trembling, "Outside there's... outside there are people…"

"Slap!"

Before the subordinate could finish, Kelvin's palm mercilessly slammed onto his face, sending him flying out, followed by Kelvin's angry growl.

"Nonsense, I obviously know there are people outside!"

"Worthless!"

Looking at the subordinate he knocked out with a slap, Kelvin snorted coldly and then waved at his other subordinates, saying, "Get out there immediately and kill these bastards! Damn it, daring to kill my men on my territory!"

"Yes!"

And then, another fierce shootout erupted, yet no matter how they fought, the local police in that area seemed entirely oblivious...

"Damn, that thing is left at the hotel!"

After running out of the hotel, Hao Jian found a nearby hotel with somewhat good conditions to settle Shu Ya, but Shu Ya suddenly remembered she left the Emerald Gemstone at the hotel...

"..."

Hao Jian had just settled Shu Ya when he heard what she said, and his face immediately showed helplessness. He lightly tapped Shu Ya's forehead, shaking his head and saying, "You silly girl, really giving people trouble. Stay here, I'll be right back..."

With that, Hao Jian immediately prepared to set off back, but just as he stood up, a soft hand suddenly grabbed his arm.

"Hao Jian, will there be danger?"

Shu Ya's pale and delicate face was full of worry. Just now, when they jumped from the twenty-sixth floor, she thought she was going to die. But who knew, when she opened her eyes, she found they had landed safely and were quite a distance from the hotel.

Now hearing Hao Jian intending to go back, she was worried, her heart was also full of remorse. Why couldn't she stay calm during the crisis and hold that Emerald Gemstone securely?

Now her mistake was forcing Hao Jian to take the risk...

"Haha, with my skills, do you still have doubts?"

Hao Jian's face showed a gentle expression, he tousled Shu Ya's hair with a smile, then grabbed a small knife on the table and left the room.

Watching the door close, Shu Ya's delicate face flushed slightly. Indeed, this guy's skills were not that simple...

"Sigh, this girl really gives people trouble. I was going to relax today without any fights, but it seems I couldn't avoid it after all..." Sprinting down the road, Hao Jian's face was full of helplessness.

Minutes later, Hao Jian arrived at the hotel they previously stayed at, only to see countless guests frantically running out of the hotel entrance.
