Chapter 407: Chapter 405: 405 You Can't Stop Me_1

“You…”

“Kid, do not fail to see what is good for you. It’s already not bad that you’re allowed to accompany us.”

Asher Green stared at Greg Jensen with a sinister look in his eyes.

Greg Jensen said indifferently, “I want to go, and you can’t stop me.”

Samantha Adams blinked and explained, “We are going there to search for my ancestor’s remains. If found, all items that belonged to my ancestor will be mine.”

“That’s not a problem.”

“Fine, then that’s settled!”

Asher Green seemed somewhat displeased and muttered under his breath, “Miss Adams, you…”

Samantha Adams calmly said, “It’s okay, one more person adds extra strength, and nothing is more important than finding my ancestor’s remains.”

“Pleasure doing business!”

“Pleasure doing business.”

Greg Jensen took the initiative to extend his hand to Samantha Adams and shook it.

Samantha Adams’s hand was very smooth, at just the right temperature, neither cold nor hot, with slender fingers that had little fleshiness to them.

Greg Jensen nodded and said, “Let’s continue discussing the situation inside the tomb.”

“Alright… alright then.”

Johnie Milton continued to talk about the situation inside the tomb after Samantha Adams nodded.

When Greg Jensen bought the Thousand Illusion Spirit Mask, he was wearing a mask. After selling the mask, Johnie Milton left.

He didn’t know what Greg Jensen looked like, nor had he seen Barry Wolfe’s face. So even with an extra person, he didn’t think much of it and told everything he knew.

After listening for a while, Greg Jensen frowned, realizing he was wrong. The Thousand Illusion Spirit Mask was not a burial object but was found in the tomb passage.

Andrew Holmes had never managed to enter that tomb and died right at its entrance.

If Andrew Holmes could use the Thousand Illusion Spirit Mask, it meant his realm had at least reached the Master Realm.

If even he died outside, how valuable must the items inside the tomb be?

There must be Magic Artifacts inside the tomb, and they would not be of lower quality than the Thousand Illusion Spirit Mask, but it was uncertain how much spiritual essence was left in those artifacts.

If they had already lost their power, that would be such a pity.

“That’s more or less the situation inside the tomb. We’ve run out of Antidote Elixir last time, and I don’t have any. If you’ve prepared Antidote Elixir, I can take you to the entrance of the tomb.”

“The entrance to the tomb will do.”

Samantha Adams said with some delight, “From what you’ve said, my ancestor probably didn’t enter, so reaching the tomb entrance is good enough.”

“Alright, then you should rest early. We’ll set off first thing tomorrow morning.”

Seeing this, Greg Jensen didn’t stay any longer and turned to go back to his own room.

“Boss, how did it go?”

“We depart tomorrow morning; I’ll go with them. You guys stay down the mountain for support and bring the satellite phone.”

Max Milton expressed his concerns, “Boss, you’re going up the mountain alone with them. What if…”

“There is no ‘what if’!”

Greg Jensen instructed, “Keep someone on watch tonight, in case they set off early.”

“Understood.”

…

Early the next morning, Greg Jensen woke up on time. Just after he finished washing up, there was a knock on the door.

Upon opening the door, he was surprised to find that it was Samantha Adams.

Greg Jensen asked curiously, “Do you need something?”

“Nothing. I just came to tell you that it’s time for us to set off.”

“Right, I know.”

Greg Jensen nodded, but Samantha Adams made no move to leave.

“Is there something else?” Greg Jensen asked.

Samantha Adams tilted her head, looking at Greg Jensen, and asked, “Have we… met before?”

“You’ve mistaken me for someone else,” Greg Jensen’s heart skipped a beat.

“Oh, maybe I did get the wrong person then.”

Samantha Adams smiled briefly and said, “Hurry up, we’re waiting for you downstairs.”

“Okay.”

After closing the door, Greg Jensen couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

This girl is so perceptive!

She could actually recognize me?

He believed that even Lindsey Wolfe and Lois Abbott might not be able to recognize him, and yet this girl, having seen him only once, had almost exposed him.

Greg Jensen took a deep breath to calm himself and quickly packed his things before heading downstairs.

“This…”

Samantha Adams waved her hand and waited until Greg Jensen approached before smiling and asking, “We’re about to travel together, we should at least introduce ourselves, right?”

“My last name is Xu,” Greg Jensen said calmly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Samantha Adams smiled, pointed to Lauren Barnett and the others, and said, “These are my friends, Lauren Barnett, Julia Hall, Asher Green, and this is our hired guide Johnie Milton.”

Among the group, aside from Lauren Barnett, who displayed curiosity, both Asher Green and Julia Hall’s expressions didn’t look too good.

Johnie Milton didn’t have much of a reaction, squeezing out a simple, honest smile as if to say the greetings were completed.

Without further courtesy, they took the off-road vehicle Asher Green and the others had driven and arrived at the edge of the vast forest, then they got out and proceeded on foot.

Greg Jensen looked back and then forward, suddenly feeling something was amiss, and turned his head to ask, “Master Milton, are you alone?”

Johnie Milton was about to answer when he suddenly realized what was being asked, hurriedly squeezing out a smile, and said, “I have a few partners; they went into the mountains a few days ago to scout the trail for us.”

Greg Jensen casually said, “Oh, I thought you had been there before and knew the way already.”

Johnie Milton’s face changed slightly but quickly returned to normal, laughing and saying, “The vegetation in the mountains is lush, and if you don’t traverse it for a few months, the original path might be gone.

It’s better to have a team in front to scout the way.”

“Hmm.”

Greg Jensen didn’t say anything more, but he began to be secretly on alert.

The group walked for more than an hour and had already entered deep into the mountains.

The vegetation here was dense, with towering trees and lush foliage blocking the just-risen morning sun, making the light dim.

What surprised Greg Jensen was that Samantha Adams and the others were actually all trained in martial arts, even the seemingly delicate Lauren Barnett had some fighting skills.

Although their realms were not high, they were sufficient to support their continued progression forward.

In the end, it was Johnie Milton who was a common man that couldn’t keep up first.

The group stopped to rest and ate some food before continuing on their way.

After five or six hours of continuous walking, they arrived at a mountain hollow, where several tents were pitched on flat ground—apparently Johnie Milton’s campsite.

“Number five, number eight…”

Johnie Milton called out excitedly, and immediately seven or eight sturdy men around forty years of age and two younger men came out of the tents.

Seeing these men, Greg Jensen’s eyes narrowed, and he stepped back a few paces, speaking indifferently,

“All this for digging up a tomb, do you really need so many people?”

Julia Hall gave Greg Jensen a disdainful glance and said cuttingly, “You didn’t see what kind of tomb it is. For such a big tomb, with blasting and moving rocks, we need more people. You think you can handle all that work by yourself?”

Asher Green couldn’t help but sneer, “You don’t understand, he’s just being cautious.”

Even Lauren Barnett beside them couldn’t help but frown slightly, a hint of contempt flashing in her eyes.

Johnie Milton looked at everyone’s expressions and then glanced at Samantha Adams, chuckling, “Mr. Liu is right; the more people we have, the better. It makes things easier if there’s any trouble.”

At this moment, number five suddenly stepped forward, scoffed, and said, “Big brother, why waste words with them? Let’s just lay it all out.”

After he finished speaking, he waved his large hand and commanded, “Come here, surround them. Anyone who doesn’t behave gets chopped!”
