Chapter 191 Return To The Forest
However, Isabel was still staring at Rose as the car moved.
"So you're the one called Rose, huh?" She started the conversation.
"Well, I've heard about you from Arthur, it seems you're very skilled at hacking."
Rose, who from the beginning wanted to get closer to Arthur was happy that Isabel was talking to her. In a soft voice, she replied, "I'm not the best but I'm sure I can handle things. If you need help, you can contact me, I will definitely help until every problem is solved..."
"Okay!" Isabel nodded. "I'll definitely call you later!"
It seemed that she did want her help. Arthur wasn't sure what she was planning.
"By the way, just now someone came to our house with a device that caused all the CCTV to shut down, do you know what it is?" She apparently asked Rose again.
The latter immediately showed an interested expression.
"I've heard of research on it from my friend, but then there was no more news, apparently it worked. It should emit a radiation that can cause death to any electronic object. It should not be just CCTV." She explained.
"It can't cause manipulation, right?"
"It shouldn't, manipulation can only be done through hacking. However, I think hacking will be easier with the help of that device. I'm sure it can help."
"I see!" Isabel then took out her cell phone.
Perhaps she was interested in the device because it was indeed useful for people like her who had superpowers.
In Vera, there are too many CCTVs, you might be recorded without you realizing it.
If she carries that device, she can use her magic power freely.
"Aunt, do you want that device, where would you look for it?" asked Arthur.
"I'll ask my friend," Isabel replied.
Of course, even if her friend could help her get the device, there was no way it was tonight.
Meanwhile, the mercenaries' truck followed behind, keeping a distance of about 30 meters.
They weren't moving fast, just leisurely enough with the other cars that nothing looked out of place.
At the same time, Arthur sent a message to Andi, asking him if it was safe there.
The man replied by saying that there was nothing strange tonight. Everything was as usual, which meant that the Armstrong Family hadn't made any moves.
Plus, Owen himself only arrived tonight. Even if he wanted to move those golds, he would definitely need time, after all, with ordinary people, the preparation needed was much greater.
***
Arthur and the others arrived at the previous location again. It was still quiet there, but they had deliberately put the car in a completely closed place.
One by one, the mercenaries got out of the truck. They carried a large bag that would later be used to carry the gold.
Arthur, Isabel, and Rose approached them. The first one said, "We will go through the tributary..."
He pointed towards the tributary that looked small to the mercenaries' eyes.
Of course, they were at a loss as to how to go through there.
"Boss, why don't we just go that way?" asked Ryan, pointing at the forest beside the tributary.
"The forest is too dense, it'll slow us down," Arthur replied.
He then walked over to some sizable trees.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
He moved, unleashing magic after magic to cut down the trees and then drop them into the tributary.
After that, he jumped onto one of the tree trunks.
"My magic will move them, jump quickly," he said.
Isabel was the first to jump. This time, she had no trouble at all. Her feet landed steadily.
It was not because she was more experienced, but due to the increase in her strength that things like jumping had become so simple.
Hunter and the others did not hesitate anymore. They immediately followed Isabel to the tree trunks.
When they had all jumped and all the equipment they had brought was ensured not to be left behind, Arthur immediately used his magic.
One by one, the tree trunks moved down the tributary.
Their large numbers clearly had an effect. The bears and other beasts that saw them chose not to move, some even seemed to want to hide.
When their auras converged, even the big snakes chose to avoid. Their instincts told them that death was all they would get if they dared to approach those people.
It didn't take long before they arrived at the end of the tributary again.
Then, they jumped to follow Arthur to the river bank.
The latter immediately moved to the location where the wooden house was.
Once nearby, Arthur signaled the mercenaries to slow down and be careful.
"So there," Rose said as she put down the bag she was carrying.
"There's a lot of CCTV there, which I'm sure is connected to their headquarters. Maybe the defense system here is very strong, are you sure you can handle it?" Arthur looked at Rose, giving her a question.
"Let me take a look first," Rose replied.
She opened the bag, taking out a laptop, tablet, and assorted equipment that Arthur didn't know about. There was even a bomb that they would later use to destroy the wooden house so there would be no trace of them.
Isabel looked curious, so she approached.
One by one, the devices lit up, emitting quite a bit of light.
Arthur finally used his magic to limit the light.
At the same time, Andi walked to the window, looking around.
He found nothing but he seemed to realize that Arthur and the others had arrived.
Not wanting to be suspected, he returned to the sofa, lay down and played the song while shaking his head.
On the other hand, Rose quickly connected with the wooden house's defense system.
Over time, she narrowed her eyes and knitted her brows, it seemed that the defense system was indeed the kind that was not easy to penetrate.
"Boss, I think I need some time, but I assure you it will work," she said to Arthur.
The latter nodded, choosing a good place to relax.
He also signaled to Hunter and the others that it was fine if they wanted to relax.
He saw them too alert as if they were on the battlefield.
While that was good, it made the atmosphere a little uncomfortable.
Actually, it was unnecessary because if there was a threat approaching, he would definitely feel it.
Seeing the signal he gave, Hunter and the others became a little more relaxed. Some even took out cigarettes to smoke.
However, out of habit, their eyes still kept looking around, like a hawk guarding its base.
