Chapter 94: Gift
"I feel like I've seen you somewhere before!"
Agustin looked at the young man's face and suddenly felt a sense of familiarity and blurted it out.
"Oh?" Antonio also became curious, observing him, "Of those who have seen me, fewer are still alive than those who are dead."
As he spoke, a strong murderous aura emanated from him.
Agustin and Nolan were both top-notch assassins, having killed numerous people, but in the face of this aura, they felt like lambs facing a tiger.
How many people had he killed to possess such an aura?
Without them asking, Antonio grinned and said, "I had a fruitful day today. I have already killed 9,896 people, with a little more effort, I might reach ten thousand today."
"Impossible!" Nolan blurted out, having seen a lot of battles. He knew, "Even a demon would go insane from killing so many people with their own hands."
Antonio glanced at him and smiled, "It's easy, I just don't consider you guys as humans."
"I'll challenge you!" Nolan gathered his strength and rushed towards Antonio.
So what if he was the leader of those security personnel?
At least he could withstand a couple of moves, mislead his body, and run past him.
As for Agustin... Nolan sighed to himself. He couldn't worry about him now.
But in that instant when Nolan charged forward, Agustin finally remembered where he had seen Antonio before.
North State, General's camp, amidst countless corpses!
The King of North State was the one who had killed the most, but this Antonio was no less skilled. Agustin had seen it with his own eyes, dozens of assassins attacking him at the same time, and even with snipers aiming at him from a distance, Antonio managed to kill all of the assassins!
The skills of each assassin were no match for Antonio's own skills!
"This is a demon!" Agustin's courage was shattered, his face pale. He never expected to encounter this demon again after so many years.
What terrified him even more was that if Antonio was here, was the King of North State also here?
Nolan...
We're dead for sure!
After recognizing Antonio, Agustin didn't hesitate at all and dashed into the adjacent room.
Escape through the window!
This floor was not low, easily ten meters high. But with just a glance, Agustin jumped down without any hesitation.
"He's quite fast!" Antonio glanced into the room and chuckled, but didn't bother chasing after him anymore.
There are more assassins in the villa anyway, killing a few more to make it a round number, aiming to reach ten thousand as soon as possible was more appealing.
Behind him, Nolan stood stiffly in place, his face filled with astonishment.
A ferocious bloody hole was conspicuously displayed on his chest.
With just one punch, Antonio had pierced through his chest!
"Madam, breakfast is ready," the servant said respectfully.
Anna nodded, feeling pleased.
It had already been a whole night, Henry must have died by now.
"What a surprise, I have to pay two billion dollars." Anna sneered, murmuring to herself.
One billion dollars was for Henry's life.
Two billion dollars was to capture Henry, torture him by any means necessary, record it all on video, and then send it to her.
"Henry, if you want to threaten me, you should have the qualifications to threaten me. I could take your life with just a little money! Thinking that filming our affair would be useful? If it wasn't inconvenient, I would have personally tortured you to death and seen the expression on your face then."
After pondering for a moment, she picked up her phone, preparing to call her daughter.
Laura didn't come home last night and seemed to be staying at Sophia's house. Anna needed to set the stage first, so her daughter wouldn't be devastated upon hearing the news of Henry's death.
On the other end of the phone, Laura asked with confusion, "Mom, why are you calling so early? What's up?"
Anna smiled and sweetly said, "Why? Can't I care about you?"
"Of course you can, as long as you're not trying to force me to break up with Henry. Whatever you say is fine then." Laura said helplessly.
Sighing, Anna suddenly said, "I'm not just trying to scare you, Henry's actions have been too conspicuous, he has offended so many people. In case he suddenly dies, don't be too heartbroken."
"Mom, are you trying to scare me? Henry is just foolish, but who would harm him?" Laura sounded a little annoyed with the conversation.
Just as Anna was about to say something else, she suddenly heard a voice from an unfamiliar girl in the background on the other end of the phone.
"Oh, my brother is back. Laura, who are you talking to?"
Thinking of the situation with the younger generation of Sophia's family, Anna had a bad feeling in her heart and hurriedly asked, "Laura, where are you exactly? Please tell me you're not at Sophia's house."
"Mom, don't worry!" Laura sounded guilty. "I have something to do, so I need to go now."
The sound of beep-beep-beep came from the phone, and after a moment of bewilderment, Anna muttered, "Where has this girl gone..."
Still feeling uneasy, she called again. After waiting for a while with no response, just as she was about to hang up and call again, someone finally picked up.
"Give me the phone, stop fooling around!" She could tell her daughter's voice was annoyed. Anna was curious about why she would say that when suddenly, a deep male voice spoke on the other side.
"Is this Aunt Anna? Good morning."
" Henry?" Anna asked uncertainly.
Henry laughed and said, "If it's not me, then who else could it be? How come you sound surprised to hear my voice?"
Anna was speechless for a moment, then reluctantly asked, "Is Laura with you?"
"Mom, don't worry, Sophia is here too. Nothing happened to us." Laura shouted. "Henry, give me the phone now."
"Alright, let me talk to Aunt again. Are you still there, Aunt?"
"Yes!" Anna almost crushed her teeth as she managed to utter a word.
"I had someone deliver a gift to you. It's something you used to like. Now that you see it again, I hope it doesn't surprise you too much."
A gift?
What gift?
Anna didn't understand, but on the other end of the phone, Henry hung up without giving Laura a chance to say anything else.
"How is this Henry still alive?!"
"Are all those assassins so useless!?"
Anna was furious, feeling a bit dizzy with rage.
Leaning on the table for a while, she remembered what Henry had said.
"What gift? He said it was already delivered by someone, but I didn't see anything."
"Could it be that a servant received it and hasn't had a chance to inform me yet?"
Anna pondered for a while and went back to her room.
The table was empty, with nothing on it.
This made Anna feel relieved. For a moment, she thought that Henry knew she had hired assassins and he had sent a bomb to her.
But upon further reflection, the Costa family had tight security and was equipped with various high-tech measures in place. Even if he had sent a bomb, it wouldn't have reached her room and would have been intercepted.
"Henry probably just made up a lie on purpose to scare me. Hmph, how foolish and childish."
Anna turned around and was about to leave the room when she suddenly noticed out of the corner of her eye that her bedspread was puffed up, as if there was a person lying underneath!
