If Hawkeye dies, we'll be in quite a bit of trouble.
As Yannick and Yoshua were panicking, a knock sounded at the room door.
“Who's there?” Hawkeye questioned nervously.
Zander's voice rang out from outside the door. “It's me.”
Hawkeye swiftly rushed over to open the door. “Quick, come in, Zander. It so happens that I've got something to
discuss with you.”
Zander eyed the dagger in the man's hand curiously. “What are you doing?”
“Zander, I suspect that he's a spy. The principle of Theos Sect is to kill all rather than risk allowing a threat to
remain. I'm planning to kill him here and now to tie up all loose ends,” Hawkeye explained.
“Oh? Why would you suspect that?” Zander queried.
“Earlier, he made an excuse of going to the washroom, but he actually wandered around. I searched everywhere
near the washroom, but I saw no signs of him. For that reason, I suspect that he's a spy who came to survey the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtterrain,” Hawkeye elucidated.
“Why, you didn't tell him the truth?” Zander asked Zeke.
“I did, but he didn't believe me,” Zeke murmured.
“What truth?” Hawkeye wondered in bewilderment.
“Actually, I called him out for a chat just now. We are former classmates,” Zander lied.
Hawkeye was shocked.
“So, he was telling me the truth. I thought he was making up excuses. I didn't expect this kid to be your ex-
classmate. How fortuitous!”
Zander flashed him a smile.
“That's also precisely why I came to seek you out this time. He's my ex-classmate, and he has a rather hot temper.
If he offends you in any way, I hope you can forgive him. Don't take offense at him.”
“Since he's your ex-classmate, he's my friend as well. I'll naturally take good care of him on your behalf,” Hawkeye
declared.
Glancing at Zeke, Zander communicated with him via energy. “Do you want me to finish him off since he
disrespected you, Great Marshal?”
“Will it cause trouble?” Zeke asked in the same manner.
“Of course not. In Theos Sect, the cheapest thing is human life. The death of an inconsequential character like him
is no big deal. It won't cause any trouble. Even if someone ends up suspecting me, I'll be able to settle things with a
drop of spiritual water,” Zander answered.
Zeke was promptly taken aback, shocked by the ruthlessness and cold-bloodedness of the members of Theos Sect.
“Never mind, spare him. Someone like him will come in handy sooner or later,” he replied.
“Okay.”
Subsequently, Zander whirled around and left.
Meanwhile, Hawkeye regarded Zeke with a grin.
“I really didn't expect you to be associated with Zander, kid. As far as I know, he used to work for Eurasia's military
in the past, and he held a pretty high position. Since you're his ex-classmate, were you also in the military?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFollowing that, Zeke concocted a lie. “Yeah, I used to work under him.”
Delight flooded Hawkeye. “Really? That's great! How about making a deal, kid?”
“What deal?” Zeke queried in curiosity.
“Do you have any friends in the military who are underappreciated or dissatisfied with the status quo? You can
introduce them to me. I'll recruit them into Theos Sect,” Hawkeye cajoled.
“I do, but what would I get from doing so?” Zeke drawled.
“According to the rules of Theos Sect, military officers of Zander's rank are worth ten drops of spiritual water while
ordinary soldiers are worth a drop of spiritual water,” Hawkeye started.
Zeke then questioned, “What's the use of this spiritual water in Theos Sect?”
“What ignorance! Spiritual water is the common currency in Theos Sect. You can buy anything with spiritual water.
For instance, a drop of spiritual water can buy a human life. It can even be someone with some status in Theos
Sect, such as a Decanus. As for a newcomer like you... haha, you're not even worth a single drop of spiritual water,”
Hawkeye elaborated.
Zeke wore a thoughtful expression on his face while rejoicing inwardly.
He had been thinking of getting Killer Wolf, Sole Wolf, and the others there to help him, but he didn't know how he
could accomplish that. As such, he was naturally appreciative when Hawkeye had voluntarily given him such a
golden opportunity.
