The man's voice had a friendly tone to it.
But it made Kieran shiver.
"It's over!"
Kieran instinctively closed his eyes.
He thought he was going to die.
Kieran had been afraid of death for a long time. In order to survive, he had even entered this underground game. He had never thought that he would die before even completing the beginner's dungeon.
For a moment, he regretted his decision to take the risk.
If he had listened to Colleen's advice and hid in the underground warehouse until the seven days were up, he might have been able to live a little longer.
However, this trace of regret vanished like smoke in thin air.
He struggled to live, the fire in his heart never extinguished, until the very last moment.
But when the last moment came …
He had to give it his all.
Kieran's left hand gripped the U-2 grenade tightly, his finger sliding through the ring.
Even if he died, he would fight to the death.
Kieran's eyes were filled with determination and stubbornness.
"Mister!"
The man's voice came again, this time with more sincerity. "I mean you no harm! I know you don't believe me, but you have to believe the truth. If I had shot you, you would have been dead. I didn't do that! "
The man's words froze Kieran's fingers, which were on the trigger of his grenade.
It wasn't that Kieran believed him.
It was because of the man's words.
Just like what the man had said, if the man had fired without a sound, he would have died a long time ago. This was the truth, there was no doubt about it!
But he did not do that.
Why?
What was the reason that made his opponent give up the chance to kill him in one strike?
Kieran did not think that his charm was enough to make the man let him go.
He wanted something.
The bag of jewels.
Kieran's mind raced. After discarding all the impossibilities, he found the most likely truth.
"You're that kind?"
Kieran laughed coldly.
"Of course, you have to believe the truth. As long as you cooperate with me, I will let you live. I swear! "
The man was sincere, and he even made a vow.
"Vow? In this chaotic war, oaths were the most worthless! You just haven't found what you're looking for! Once you find it, will you let me go? "
Kieran showed a disdainful expression.
Moreover, his voice was low and hoarse. Towards the end, it was hysterical, and his whole body was trembling.
However, Kieran did not take the opportunity to turn around.
Kieran believed that the moment he turned around or did something unexpected, the other party would definitely shoot.
That's right, the other party wanted to keep him alive and ask about the whereabouts of the bag of jewelry.
So the bullet could have hit the arm or the leg.
No matter where he was, Kieran was unwilling to be shot!
However, he needed to make a stand.
His demented attitude was appropriate.
"Calm down! Sir, please calm down! I don't want to cause any misunderstandings. Besides, you are a clever man. Just tell me where the jewels are, and I will fulfill your request! "
"Leave this damned city!"
"Believe me, this is not difficult for me!"
"After all, I am in the service of General Zennings! I am not on the same level as your collaborator, Major Zarukhar! "
Zarukhar could even be said to be General Zennings' dog! "
Kieran's method worked.
The other party started spilling everything that Kieran wanted to know.
However, the other party's words were also aimed at Kieran's psychological defenses. Although that was what Kieran had shown during the conversation with Major Zarukhar, it was not the truth.
However, it was enough to show how resourceful the other party was.
Not only did he know about the conversation between Kieran and Major Zarukhar, but he had also managed to infiltrate Zarukhar's team of confidants.
That was why Kieran did not doubt the authenticity of Zarukhar's claim that Major Zarukhar was General Zennings' dog.
Because there was a high chance that it was true!
Kieran's feelings were complicated.
It was like a hunter hunting a rabbit in the mountains, only to find that the rabbit had turned into a tiger.
At first, Kieran had only wanted to kill Major Zarukhar and increase his dungeon rating, but now he had provoked the person behind Major Zarukhar: the rebel general.
Kieran did not know what role General Zennings played in the rebel army.
But one thing was for sure. Just based on his rank alone, General Zennings must have been one of the higher-ups in the rebel army.
Zarukhar's actions had not been hidden from General Zennings' eyes.
The appearance of the Deceiver behind General Zennings was the best proof.
How arrogant!
Kieran couldn't help but comment when he thought about how overbearing the man was during the call. He then added another word in front of his comment: self-righteous.
Zarukhar obviously thought that he had done a good job.
But what about the truth?
It was just that it was not time to pull in the net yet.
Kieran could already imagine that once Zarukhar got his hands on the Vulture's jewels, the major would be arrested in secret.
Then, he would be executed, bypassing the military court.
Then, some real crimes would appear on the file.
There was no doubt that General Zennings had everything planned out.
"The mastermind!"
Kieran thought to himself.
"So, what do you think?"
The Deceiver behind him interrupted Kieran's thoughts.
From the man's point of view, a minute was enough for Kieran.
"I want to leave this city, and then I'll tell you everything!"
Kieran said.
"Sir, you know that's impossible! I don't have the authority to take you away before I see the jewels. I need General Zennings' permission to do that! "
The Deceiver replied with a smile.
"Then I want to see General Zennings!"
Kieran changed his condition.
"Do you think that's possible?"
The Deceiver's laughter turned cold. He thought that he should teach Kieran a lesson, so that Kieran would know how to behave as a captive.
In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't be sure whether Kieran had hidden the bag of jewels in this area or somewhere else, he would have shot Kieran a long time ago to avoid unnecessary trouble. He wouldn't have wasted so much time talking nonsense.
"I need treatment now, I was shot!"
Kieran said again.
This time, the Deceiver did not reject him right away.
He had seen Kieran get shot with his own eyes. Although he was wearing a bulletproof vest and Kieran was still alive and kicking, no one could be sure whether it was a final struggle or not.
However, the Deceiver did not agree right away.
He said, "In order to show my sincerity, I can help you. I hope you can remember my sincerity. Now, put down the gun in your hand and turn around. Slow down! That's right, turn around slowly and let me see your wound! "
Under the Deceiver's instruction, Kieran slowly turned around after putting down the sniper rifle.
The Deceiver saw the wound near Kieran's abdomen and the wound on his left calf with a single glance.
The Deceiver's battlefield knowledge allowed him to tell that the latter was nothing serious, just a bullet scratch. The former, on the other hand, was a little more serious, even with the bulletproof vest as a buffer.
However, how effective could a bulletproof vest be against a military rifle?
The Deceiver believed that Kieran's internal organs must have been damaged, and some parts of his body might even be beyond repair.
The reason why Kieran could still move freely was because of his good physique.
It was all because of his good physique and strong desire to live.
However, it wouldn't last long. Soon, Kieran would fall into a deep sleep.
The Deceiver had seen many similar cases on the battlefield.
However, even though he was facing a dying man, the Deceiver was still as vigilant as ever. The gun was still pointed at Kieran's head.
"Your wounds aren't that serious. As long as you receive treatment in time, you'll be fine. I can give you some medicine and gauze, you can deal with it yourself!"
The Deceiver reached out with his left hand and removed a leather bag from his waist, tossing it to Kieran's feet.
The gun in his right hand was still pointed at Kieran.
Under the man's gun, Kieran forced himself to sit down and pick up the man's bag. There were two rolls of bandages and two syringes inside.
[Name: High Level Bandage]
[Type: Medicine]
[Rarity: Common]
[Attributes: Increases HP by 30 for 30 seconds, increases recovery speed, suppresses bleeding]
[Effects: None]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remarks: It's a lot stronger than normal bandages and gauze!]
…
[Name: Pain Killer]
[Type: Medicine]
[Rarity: Common]
[Attributes: It allows you to ignore your own pain, but only for 3 minutes!]
[Effects: None]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remarks: 3 minutes is enough for you to do a lot of things, like … writing a will?]
When Kieran's fingers touched the bandages and the syringes, the information of the items popped up.
Especially the latter, it made Kieran's eyes shine.
Kieran was even more confident about what he was going to do next.
He slowly unbuttoned the [Tier 1 Bulletproof Vest], every action making it seem like he was giving it his all.
"You should give yourself a shot. Of course, if you tell me where the jewels are, I can give you better treatment. I guarantee you'll recover in the shortest time possible!"
The Deceiver reminded Kieran when he saw what he was doing.
He was afraid that Kieran would die just like that.
"Okay!"
Kieran listened to the Deceiver's advice, rolling up his sleeves and giving himself a shot.
Then, he started to take off the vest.
When the Deceiver saw Kieran unbuttoning the [Tier 1 Bulletproof Vest] with much difficulty and was about to take it off his body, the Deceiver, who had been aiming at Kieran's head, moved his gun downwards, avoiding his face and half of his chest and aiming at Kieran's legs.
It was an instinctive action.
Inflict the most damage to the enemy!
The Deceiver's training allowed him to do this.
It gave Kieran a chance!
The chance he had been waiting for!
Kieran's eyes saw the Deceiver's gun move downwards. He hurled the vest at the Deceiver like he was throwing a sack with both hands.
