“Aora, Mackenzie’s men have the mountain surrounde” Azure’s voice broke the tense silence as he scrambled up the hill,
glancing back nervously. They were trapped–cornered like fish in a barrel. Unless they had wings, there was no way out.
Aora crouched nearby, clenched his fists, and growled, Mackenzie, I’ll make you pay for this. One day, I’ll kill you.”
The hill they’d fled to wasn’t much of a refuge. It was small, steep, and easy for Mackenzie’s well–equipped Wolf Warrior Unit to
storm. Yet, Mackenzie wasn’t rushing. She Chapter 575 Chapter 575

Upon hearing this, the doctor immediately felt deep veneration and his choice of words became more rigorous. "Mr. Soar, you
two really look alike. According to my 30-year career, this lady looks at least 70% like you. The specifics are not her facial
features, but her bone
structure."
He used to be a forensic doctor, and he valued internal things and had sharp eyes.
This was also the main reason why Maeve's appearance did not look much like Gale at first glance, but doctors could see
through the essence through phenomena.
As for Will, he judged according to his feelings.
"Is that so?" Gale's voice suddenly became much hoarser. His heart, which had been desperate for a long time, thumped heavily
in his chest.
No matter how he looked at it, he could not see any clues from Maeve's blurry face.
'Could she really be my daughter?' Gale had never made any meaningless assumptions. He had been disappointed enough in
the past few decades, Now, he would not be too excited. 'Perhaps this is just another coincidence. In the past few years, were
there not many similar coincidences?"

No one knew that Gale, who looked like he didn't care, turned around and sent someone to bring the two criminals over to
interrogate them personally.
The two criminals had been shot in the hands and feet. They were tied to the ground by the people from the military and could
not move.
When they saw the face that was once commonly seen on the national news appear in this small dark room, expressions
suddenly changed.
their
They looked at each other and were about to bite the poison in their mouths to commit suicide when their chins were dislocated
by the soldiers Gale had instructed beforehand.
"Poison in your teeth. You must have a powerful background." Gale knocked on the armrest of the wheelchair nonchalantly. His
tone was calm and imposing. "I'm in a hurry. If you don't want any parts of your body to be removed again, you'd better behave
yourselves. I'm usually very reasonable." The fear in the two criminals' eyes was almost overflowing.
He dislocated their chins to prevent them from committing suicide. How the fuck was that reasonable?
In less than half an hour, the two criminals couldn't take it anymore and confessed.
This robbery was not on a whim. It was premeditated. The target was not money, but the woman called Maeve.
Their employer was a foreigner. Before them, many mercenaries had received similar missions to come to Setigal to attack
Maeve. As long as they didn't kill her, they could do whatever they wanted.
They did not meet their employer directly and only spoke a few words through the car window. The other party was a gentleman
who spoke fluent Erancian.
Things had become a little troublesome.

Gale looked away and ordered his subordinates, "Check the mission records related to the border mercenaries and Maeve.
Trace back to find out who their employer is behind the scenes. necessary, we may need to resort to some unconventional

methods." The subordinate gave a standard salute. "Yes, Mr. Soar."
After Gale came out of the darkroom, his tightly furrowed brows never relaxed.
The deputy general behind him asked in a low voice, "Mr. Soar, this related to the huge incident at the border last time? I see that
you seem to have some doubts. Perhaps I can share your worries."
Gale shook his head. "No, it has nothing to do with this. It's my private matter."
He was only thinking about how a little girl like Maeve could be on the wanted list and be assassinated continuously.
He thought, 'If it were anyone else, they might have broken down long ago. However, she's happy and doesn't look gloomy at all.
Even when her head was smashed by the criminal and her life was threatened, she knew how to cooperate with my sniper angle
and find a suitable opportunity to survive. With her intelligence, quick-wittedness, and outstanding courage, even if she was not

Gale's biological daughter, he would treat her differently.
At this moment, the bodyguard put away his phone and walked back. He lowered his voice and whispered into Gale's ear, "Mr.
Gale Soar, Mr. Zephyr Soar is here."
"What's he doing here?" asked Gale.
The bodyguard explained, "Mr. Zephyr Soar came to see you and happened to bump into Ms. Reese, who had just woken up
and was still muddle-headed. Ms. Reese thought that she had been kidnapped by Mr. Zephyr Soars" Gale asked in a lukewarm
tone, "Who are you calling muddle-headed?"
'Is that the point?' The bodyguard suddenly felt a sense of danger and quickly corrected himself. "I'm sorry. Ms. Reese was just
injured and had just woken up."
Gale nodded. Then, he instructed his deputy general, "Jason, I'll leave this place to you. I still have something on."
Jason replied, "Yes."
At the same time, in the living room of the villa, Maeve woke up from her daze and was completely embarrassed. She kept
apologizing to Zephyr.
There were three red scratches on Zephyr's handsome face. Although he still looked charming, it was a little comical. Especially
when compared to his calm and composed aura, it was as if she had been pranked by a child.

"It's fine. It's just a few small scratches. But you..." Zephyr pointed at the gauze on her forehead. "How did you get injured like
this?"
Maeve touched her forehead. "Well, I was unlucky to encounter a robber while eating at a restaurant. They hit me twice with a
gun."
Zephyr looked worried. "Other than your forehead, you didn't get hurt anywhere else, right?"
No. Fortunately, the police came quickly. A sniper in the building opposite broke the robber's limbs, so nothing serious

happened to me," said Maeve.
"That's good." Zephyr looked at her pale face. "This area is well-managed, and it's a membership name system. The threshold is
also high. It's impossible for criminals to appear. I'm guessing that you might have been the target of those robbers in the first
place. If it was just for money, they didn't have to do anything to you. If you were injured, they wouldn't be able to take you away
as a hostage."
An injured hostage was a burden. No robber would be stupid enough to escape with a burden.
Maeve had also thought of this, but she suddenly had a premonition when the criminals attacked.
Zephyr could roughly guess the situation just by listening to her brief description. He was really sharp.
"Zephyr is right." The soft sound of a wheelchair rolling across the floor echoed into the living room, followed by Gale's solemn
voice. "Someone has set their sights on you. Try not to go out alone from now on."
"Mr. Soar, I haven't thanked you for bringing me back to find a doctor to treat me. It's all thanks to you." Maeve stood up and
thanked him.
Hearing her voice, Gale felt a ripple stir in his chest, and his arm tensed slightly as he gripped the armrest. He was a little
nervous.

"It's nothing. You don't have to stand on ceremony. You can stay here until you recover from your injuries. Those ignorant
fanatics won't dare to cause trouble here," Gale said as calmly as possible.
Zephyr noticed that Gale's attitude was different from usual, and his gaze became a little suspicious. 'Father has never been so
gentle to anyone. Yes, gentle. Although his tone sounds domineering, he is actually thinking for Maeve. What happened without
me knowing?" vyeu, Qan

stood at the foot of the hill, arms crossed, assessing the situation.
She thought, This terrain is brutal, and we’re already short on people. If I send more troops up the hill, it might give Aora and
Azure the perfect chance to escape. I can’t afford to make careless decisions right now. Aora’s not just a tough fighter–he’s a
poison expert. One slip–up and it could all fall apart.
Just then, Rhett stated calmly, “I’ll handle this. We’ve fought twice before without a clear winner. This time, I’ll end it.”
Mackenzie frowned. “Are you sure? Facing Aora alone is risky. What if—
“I know how to deal with his poison, and sending a whole team after him will just give them an opening Trust me–this is the best
approach,” he interrupted, his tone steady.
The confidence in Rhett’s voice left no room for argument. He wasn’t just any fighter. As the King of Dark Night Island, he thrived
on challenges like this–a battle against someone as formidable as Aora was an opportunity to sharpen his skills.
“Rhett, I’ll come with you,” Anna and Falcon offered in unison.
Rhett glanced at Anna. “Alright, you’re with me. Let’s keep it fair–one–on–one duels. That’s how we do things.”
Mackenzie sighed, realizing there was no changing Rhett’s mind. “Fine, but be careful. We’ve got the upper hand right now–don’t

take any unnecessary risks.”
“Appreciate the concern, Your Holiness.” Rhett smirked, dodging any solid commitment. This was the mark of a true warrior–
determined to face Aora in a fair fight and bring him down on his own terms.

As night fell, the hill plunged into darkness, the shadows growing thicker with each passing minute. For Rhett and Anna, the lack
of light was just another challenge. For Aora and Azure, it was a perfect cover. Yet, Rhett and Anna felt a thrill—they welcomed
the challenge, finding it an exciting twist to an otherwise routine battle.
From their hiding spot, Azure whispered, “Aora, someone’s coming.” While his combat skills and internal strength couldn’t rival
Aora’s, his sharp senses and keen observation were unmatched among the four.
Nora grinned. “I know. It’s Rhett–he just can’t help himself, can he? Once I take him out, Mackenzie’s
entire plan falls apart. Without their leader, the rest are nothing but headless chickens.”
“That’s how it always works.” Azure nodded. Though he was a martial artist, he had a knack for strategy and tactics. His
experience with planning and games taught him that eliminating the leader was the quickest way to bring the whole operation
down.

Chapter 2129 Showdown on the Hill: Rhett vs. Aoral
They melted into the shadows, ready to strike.
# Finished
Rhett and Anna advanced cautiously, their footsteps barely making a sound as they scanned the area. Rhett’s sharp gaze cut
through the dark while Anna’s instincts kept her alert.
Rustling bushes drew Ana’s attention. She lashed out with precision. “Show yourself!”
As one of the Three Titans of the Ophanim Clan, her skills were razor–sharp, and her movements precise. Yet when her attack
landed, the bush was empty.
“Seriously?” Her eyes narrowed, frustration flickering across her face. Did I really misjudge that? she thought, a hint of doubt
creeping in.
That’s when two figures burst from the shadows, aiming straight for her.

“Let’s take out the weaker one first,” Aora taunted, his voice dripping with mockery.
Anna braced herself, knowing she couldn’t take on both attackers at once. She locked onto the one in front, determined to hold
her ground.
Meanwhile, Azure watched closely from a safe distance his movements deliberate and calculated, He wasn’t in a rush–he knew
Aora would finish Anna off soon enough.
“Die!” Aora lunged at Anna, his attack swift and deadly.
Caught off guard, Anna had no way to defend herself. At the last second, a crimson bfur intercepted the
blow.
“Rhett!” Anna gasped, relief washing over her. She knew he wouldn’t leave her behind–years of fighting side by side had built an
unshakable bond of trust.
Rhett urged, “You go after the other one. This one’s mine.”
“Got it!” Anna smirked, wasting no time. She darted toward Azure, pushing him out of the fight and leaving Rhett and Aora to
face off.
The two rivals stood still, their gazes locked. The tension was palpable.
Rhett simply smirked and launched his attack. Instead of finishing quickly, he held back and drew out the fight.
“You’ve got guts, I’ll give you that,” Aora stated in an almost amused tone. He thought, You trust Anna, and I trust Azure. He’s the
smartest and most unpredictable among us.
Rhett’s reply was calm and deliberate. “I respect your strength, Aora. Still, this ends tonight. One–on–one, no tricks.”
“One–on–one? You really think you can handle it?” Aora scoffed.
Rhett gestured to his gas mask and replied confidently, This mask neutralizes one of your deadliest tricks. As long as I don’t let
you get the upper hand, your poison won’t touch me.”
Maybe, but you think you’ve figured out all my tricks? Sure, your internal strength might surpass mine, but your technique is no
match for me. I just need to avoid a direct clash to turn this fight in my favor.” Aora shifted into a fighting stance, his movements

steady and deliberate.

“Let’s see if you’re as confident as you sound,” Rhett retorted. He swiftly flung his crimson cloak forward, the fabric snapping
through the air like a whip. Two ghostly red shapes shot toward Aora, fast and precise.
Aora dodged, leaping onto a nearby tree to avoid the sinke. The two warriors moved like shadows, their figures blurring as they
clashed in the dark.
“Aora, you’ve improved, Rhett admitted. His voice was low and raspy, carrying an ominous weight like the whisper of a grim
reaper as he pushed Aora further up the hill.
“You didn’t think I’d stay the same with poisoning people, did you?” Aora laughed, his movements were slippery and
unpredictable. He kept his distance, striking only when Rhett left an opening.
“Playing it safe won’t win you this fight,” Rhett growled, le closed the gap with a burst of speed, his red cloak slicing through the
air.
