Getting $10 Trillion Out Of Nowhere-Chapter 2161: I Didn’t Lie to You!

After all, Roger was Abel’s most capable subordinate.

Furthermore, Abel had given his permission to attack Connor with weapons.

If these people wanted a scapegoat, they would definitely go after Abel.

"Actually, General Abel didn’t agree to this!" Rode wanted to explain on Abel’s behalf, but Able stopped him.

"There’s no need to say anymore!" Abel waved at Rode and said expressionlessly, "It’s too late to say anything now. After all, it has already happened. Our losses this time are very large. We have suffered thousands of casualties and lost dozens of fighter jets."

Everyone looked at Abel.

"Obviously, this responsibility should be borne by me, so I plan to resign!" Abel said slowly.

"Now is not the time for you to resign. I need you to tell me what we should do next!" the leader said expressionlessly.

"It’s obvious that the Soul Eater isn’t coming for us. There’s no conflict between us, so I think the best thing to do now is to stop immediately and let Connor settle the conflict between him and Blood Shadow. Then, I’ll think of a way to communicate with the people on Sommerville’s side and see if we can properly resolve this problem. I can also personally apologize to the Soul Eater and admit that these actions are my personal actions and have nothing to do with Risu!"

Abel said slowly.

If Abel had said these words a day ago, everyone would have stood up and objected.

After all, Abel’s actions meant that the entirety of Risu was bowing to Connor. How could a great country do such a shameful thing?

However, no one dared to object now, because they knew very well that this might be the best solution at the moment.

After all, if they didn’t give in, they could only continue fighting like this.

However, they knew that according to the current situation, even if they used the entire country’s strength, they wouldn’t be able to do anything to Connor. Moreover, this method might cause even more terrifying losses to them.

The leader hesitated for a moment before saying softly, "Let’s do as you say. These were all your personal decisions!"

"Alright, alright..."

Abel quickly nodded.

Everyone looked at Abel, not knowing what to say.

It was obvious that they were planning to sacrifice Abel to protect Risu.

This method was obviously inappropriate, but they were helpless because there was no better way.

At this moment, these people finally understood a principle. If a martial artist’s strength was really terrifying to a certain extent, it was simply not something that people like them could contend with.

...

On the other side, Connor arrived in Miami in less than half an hour and found William’s current location.

William had planned to escape, but his speed was too slow compared to Connor’s. Even though Connor gave him half an hour to escape, he still could not leave Miami.

In a manor.

Connor finally found William.

At this moment, William was hiding under a big tree to rest. He had used up most of his aura to avoid Connor, so he wanted to recover before continuing to run.

However, William never expected Connor to catch up so quickly.

"You must be William?"

Connor’s voice sounded in William’s ears.

When William heard Connor’s words, he suddenly stood up and looked at Connor with an incredulous expression. He stammered, "You... Who are you?"

"I’ve been looking for you for so long. Don’t you know who I am?"

Connor replied indifferently.

"You actually found me so quickly. You... How did you do it?"

William hurriedly asked.

He had started running half an hour ago. At that time, Connor was still in the desert, but in just half an hour, Connor had come to the city and found him. This was really unbelievable.

Moreover, William had set up an array on his body. This array could hide his aura, but Connor was able to lock onto his position so accurately. This meant that he must have used some other method.

William pretended to be calm and asked Connor in a low voice, "Soul Eater, I don’t think there’s any enmity between us, right? Why did you have to find me? What are you trying to do?"

"Don’t you know why I wanted to find you?" Connor replied directly.

"I... I’m not sure..."

William shook his head.

Connor was not in the mood to talk nonsense with William. He bluntly asked, "Since you don’t know, then let me remind you. Did you put the Ghostly Spirit Curse on my master?"

"You’re talking about the person in the secret treasure, right?"

"Of course!" Connor lightly nodded.

William took a deep breath and whispered, "That curse was cast by my uncle. It has nothing to do with me!"

"Back then, there were two people who entered the secret tomb. One was your uncle, and the other should be you, right?"

Connor asked.

William looked hesitant.

"I suggest you tell me the truth, or else you will end up in a very, very miserable state!"

Connor reminded William softly.

William hesitated for two seconds before he said in a low voice, "That’s right, it was me!"

"What happened that day?" Connor asked.

"..."

William took a deep breath and said expressionlessly, "Actually, my uncle and I were the first to find the secret treasure that day. Moreover, the two of us were also the first to enter the tomb. I’m not very sure what happened outside after that. I only know that your master suddenly rushed in. My uncle did not want to split the things in the secret treasure with your master, so he fought with your master..."

"And then?"

"Your master’s strength is very terrifying. My uncle and I joined forces and only fought to a standstill with your master! However, we wasted too much time. The array was about to close, so my uncle placed a Ghostly Spirit Curse in your master’s body. Then, at the last moment before the array closed, he brought me out of the tomb while your master stayed there..."

William looked up at Connor and whispered, "This is all I know. I’m not lying to you!"

Connor could feel that William was not lying.
