"Yes, I admit, you are more powerful than I anticipated, but..." Kaisilin said, "Even if I can't beat you, I can still self-detonate. There is a bomb in my body; if I really choose to do this, then both you and I will be blown to death!"

"You don't dare to try." Ximen Wudi said indifferently, "At this time, you have become isolated and helpless. If you really detonated the bomb, you wouldn't even have the qualification to perish together."

After finishing, Ximen Wudi reached out and grabbed Kaisilin's ankle.

"What are you going to do?" Kaisilin's expression changed instantly.

"You don't deserve to have sound legs, so I'll help you break them." Ximen Wudi's expression was indifferent, saying.

With a crack, Kaisilin's right leg was folded at ninety degrees!

Fresh blood sprayed wildly from Kaisilin's lower leg!

"Ah!" Kaisilin let out a miserable scream in pain!

"I said, don't try to provoke me." Ximen Wudi said: "Your personality determines your fighting style, unfortunately... you are not suitable to be a mercenary, and even less suitable to kill people."

After finishing, Ximen Wudi stepped toward the door.

"Hey! Come back here!" Kaisilin roared: "What exactly do you want to help?"

Ximen Wudi didn't look back, leaving her with only four words: "Powerless to help."

…………

Ximen Wudi came to Ruth's room, looked at Ruth lying on the hospital bed, and shook his head, saying: "I won't let you stay in the dark world for the rest of your life. If you are willing, you can leave with me; you can gain freedom, and in the future, I can make you the most dazzling woman in the entire dark world."

Hearing this, Ruth opened her eyes suddenly, her eyes full of brightness.

However, this brightness was fleeting, replaced by that melancholy color again.

Ruth was silent for a few seconds and said: "Thank you, Mr. Apollo, but I have become accustomed to my current life; I like these days."

"Alright, I respect your choice." Ximen Wudi nodded and stood up: "However, if you have any needs, you can find me. I think I can still provide some help, just like you gave me a sum of money in Africa."

After finishing, Ximen Wudi patted Ruth on the shoulder and turned to leave.

This was his principle; since Ruth liked her current way of life, Ximen Wudi naturally couldn't force the other party to change anything.

…………

"Boss, take me with you this time."

"I am not your boss, and you are not my employee. This time, we are just simple collaborators." Ximen Wudi said.

This man and woman sat in the hotel suite drinking black tea, and the atmosphere was quite good.

"Are you very curious why I appeared here?" Ximen Wudi glanced at Ruth and asked.

Although this woman looked very haggard, she could definitely be considered a top-tier beauty, especially when wearing a white shirt and jeans, giving people a fresh and refined feeling.

In this world, very few women of this type could overwhelm Ruth in temperament.

"I know exactly who you are, and I also know your name." Ruth looked up at Ximen Wudi, a sense of perseverance revealing in her gaze: "We haven't met before."

"It's not that we haven't met before." Ximen Wudi smiled, picked up the cup, took a sip of tea, and moistened his throat: "I came last night."

"You came?"

Hearing this, the brilliance in Ruth's eyes surged suddenly, staring at Ximen Wudi: "You came, but didn't enter the room?"

"

After finishing, Ximen Wudi stood up, carrying I didn't enter the room." Ximen Wudi spread his hands: "So what if I didn't enter the room? Could we do something else? I don't have much interest in such things."

"Then what about me?" Ruth asked straightforwardly.

This question was simple and rude, but also extremely direct—if both I and Lopez die, can you accept my corpse?

"Miss Ruth, I refuse to answer this kind of question. You also know that I don't want to get myself into trouble." Ximen Wudi smiled, "Of course, if possible, if you are willing, I am still very happy to help."

"But I am not willing." Ruth lowered her eyelids and said.

"Good, then, let's change the angle to talk about this matter." Ximen Wudi said: "If Lopez dies, then Atlantis's wealth will be gone; in that case, are you willing to take over?"

"Are you referring to the inheritance my father left me?" Ruth asked back.

"Yes, that is your grandfather's lifelong effort; don't you want to take it for yourself?"

"I certainly want to, but I cherish what I have now even more." Ruth's tone was calm.

Ximen Wudi smiled: "In that case, you are a very rational girl, and you also understand what is more important."

Ruth nodded, then looked out the window: "Yes, I am a rational person, but I can't control my heart after all."

"Then I will tell you a shortcut that can solve this problem." Ximen Wudi said: "I think you shouldn't mind going to Africa with me, right?"

"What do you mean by your words?" Ruth asked.

"Your leader, Karagunis, I think you are familiar with him, but he won't take the initiative to pass this position to you; his temper is bigger than mine, and he is also smarter than me." Ximen Wudi said: "So, I suggest you join forces with me and kill Karagunis."

Hearing this, a look of vigilance appeared in Ruth's eyes, and she instinctively shrank back.

"Don't worry, I have no malice; on the contrary, there is still some friendship between us two. These friendships are not limited to the few years you had hostility toward me, and now, we are still friends."

Speaking of this, Ximen Wudi paused: "Moreover, if I want to kill Karagunis, you can't stop it at all."

After a pause, Ximen Wudi added: "You should be glad, because for this operation, I don't plan to take you with me."

Hearing this, a hopeful look was released in Ruth's eyes: "Why? Why? Can't we join forces and advance and retreat together?"

"Because..." Ximen Wudi hesitated, but still said what was in his heart: "I am worried about you getting hurt. Although your marksmanship is not bad, facing a master of Karagunis's level, you might not even be able to save half your life."

"I know you mean well." Ruth said.

In fact, this time Ruth didn't know that if Ximen Wudi insisted on killing her, I'm afraid Ruth wouldn't even have the chance to resist.

"No, I am stating an objective fact." Ximen Wudi said: "Of course, I won't deliberately stop you; you can consider it, and then give me an answer, but I don't have much time left and must immediately catch a flight to Africa."

Suitcase, walking toward the door.

However, his footsteps hadn't crossed the threshold yet when his back was suddenly hit fiercely!

Ruth pushed Ximen Wudi hard!

Ximen Wudi was caught off guard and almost fell to the ground!

He twisted his face: "Ruth, I hope you understand that this kind of action really offends me."

"It's not an offense, I just want to tell you that if you go to Africa, then I will go too." Ruth said, her voice flat, but revealing an undeniable persistence.

"Why must you do this?" Ximen Wudi asked, "Could it be that you are not afraid of Lopez's revenge?"

"I am not afraid of him." Ruth took a deep breath, her eyes looking straight at Ximen Wudi: "I have been an orphan since I was a child; besides my parents, I have no family, so even if you didn't save me today, I wouldn't seek death; I am not that kind of person, and I don't want to do that."

Hearing the five words "don't want to do that," Ximen Wudi couldn't help but feel a thousand emotions.

Ruth was right; she was never this kind of personality.

"Alright, since you want to go, then go. Good luck, my friend."

After finishing this sentence, Ximen Wudi opened the door and walked out.

"My friend, you must pay attention to safety." Ruth shouted, then picked up the phone and dialed a number: "Hello, it's me, you guys come over quickly, I need support..."

By the time Ximen Wudi walked to the stairwell, he found that the surroundings were already empty, and even a waiter from the travel agency couldn't be seen.

The boss of this hotel is truly cunning.

Ximen Wudi shook his head: "I really owe the boss a favor."

…………

"Let's eat breakfast first." Ximen Wudi greeted Ruth to sit down, and while fiddling with the knife and fork, he said: "I know you are starving."

"No, I'm not hungry." Ruth looked at Ximen Wudi's skilled dining etiquette and couldn't help but say: "Your craftsmanship seems quite good; it looks very professional."

"This is nothing, just my habit." Ximen Wudi smiled: "Try the ham sandwich I grilled."

"Mm." Ruth said: "I grew up eating raw meat, so I like this taste very much."

Ximen Wudi cut the grilled ham sandwich into four pieces and handed them to Ruth: "You try it."

This slice of ham was golden and oily, with a rich aroma, making people's appetite open wide.

"Thank you, it's delicious." Ruth said.

"Then let's continue talking about business." Ximen Wudi said, tearing off a piece of sandwich and stuffing it into his mouth: "You don't know, along this way, Karagunis has been in a state of rage; I fought him hundreds of times, every time in danger, and I suspect he could shatter me in the next second."

Ruth pursed her lips and didn't make a sound.
