After signing the contract, Zi took out $100,000 in cash and gave it to Jackson Curtis. She then told him that he only had three hours to deal with various matters before he had to go back to work.
Because of Sheyan's preconceived suggestion, Jackson Curtis did not agree to it. He treated the unreasonable request as part of his job with a salary of $700,000 a year, or perhaps it was the interviewer who deliberately made things difficult for him, so he did not raise any objections.
After tidying up his house hastily (the explosion happened on the road outside), he called his ex-wife to show off to her and simply said OK.
Using the excuse of having a free medical examination, Sheyan obtained Jackson Curtis's blood sample. Jackson Curtis's blood sample was dripped on the 'Chris Redfield Bracelet' he obtained. The bloody glow on Redfield's' Lucky Bracelet 'looked even brighter, like a red agate. It should not be long before the bracelet was unsealed.
On the way back, Party Ace could not wait to pick up the CD that Loki had thrown to them and stuff it into the CD drive. Everyone was eager to know what was on the damn CD.
When the CD was played, a scene appeared on the screen. It looked like a church or something like that. Zi and Reef were slightly surprised when they saw it.
"Huh? Why is it Rome?"
Due to the cultural gap, Party Ace could not tell the subtle difference in the cultural atmosphere, just like how many foreigners could not tell the difference between Chinese architecture and Indian architecture. After hearing Zi's words, Sheyan said, "He doesn't have a soul weapon.
"His Legendary-grade weapon doesn't have a weapon soul, so this guy wants the weapon soul of the Lance of Longinus, so it's not strange that he went to Italy."
Zi suddenly understood.
"Oh, right. When the world ends, this kind of holy relic must be transported to the airship. Once it's away from the church, it's naturally much easier to obtain it."
Then, Loki appeared on the screen in a somewhat sorry state. He was wearing a very unfitting priest's robe with many holes on it. Through the holes, one could see his red skin, as if it had been scalded by boiling water. A large number of people were chasing after him, but judging from Loki's nonchalant expression, it was as if he was not being chased by a large group of people, but by a large group of panicked ants.
"It should be the recording function of the nightmare imprint," Zi whispered. "I'll do the same next time. It'll be a good way to summarize the gains and losses."
Then, Loki shook off his pursuers and came to the top of a building. Suddenly, he frowned, and there seemed to be the sound of glass breaking on his body. Loki immediately took out a blue bead the size of a finger from his pocket, and immediately saw that it was covered with cracks.
Loki smashed the bead to the ground, and smoke immediately rose. On it, the image of Carlos half-kneeling on the ground appeared, shouting at the top of his lungs:
"Boss, save me!!"
Loki frowned. His priest robe was immediately torn into pieces by the strong wind. A shocking scene of lightning and thunder appeared on his right hand. Then, he held the legendary weapon on his back with a backhand grip, and the backpack on his back instantly exploded!
At the same time, everyone wanted to see this divine object that had fused two legendary weapons, but they couldn't see its specific appearance. They only felt that it was completely covered by a milky white light, but the light emitted from it was like a raging thunderbolt.
Loki suddenly made a throwing motion, but he did not throw Gungnir out. Instead, a phantom white light shot out from the front of Gungnir, piercing straight into the sky. After flying for fifty or sixty meters, a black hole suddenly appeared in front of Loki, and the sharp tearing light drilled into the black hole!
At this time, the scene suddenly changed to the New York airport. A black hole suddenly appeared in the sky above the airport. Carlos, Razor, and the others were almost forced into a corner by the Divine Servant. Suddenly, the light of Gungnir pierced through the Divine Servant's chest and nailed him to the ground!!!
Then, the scene changed to Loki's tyrannical fight with the guy named Bind. However, the scenes of the fight didn't seem to be complete or coherent. It didn't look like a live broadcast, but more like it had been edited. Everyone watched the video as if they were watching a comic book.
Bind looked very ordinary in the video. He was just a middle-aged man in a suit that was commonly seen on the streets of Wall City. The Gungnir in Loki's hand should be the real thing. When Loki swung Gungnir, a five-meter-long arc of lightning would appear. Illusions of crosses, Holy Sons, and cherubs would constantly appear on the lightning. It felt like Loki was holding a ball of lightning that did not have a physical body, but it was unrestrained and wild!
However, Bind was unscathed in the lightning. He was like a leaf floating in the water. The harder someone tried to pick him up, the harder it would be for the leaf to be pushed away by the current. That was the impression the contestants had of the dozen or so video clips.
In the end, Loki's lightning finally penetrated Bind's abdomen like a bloodthirsty beast, but at the same time, Loki's tall body could be seen twitching. He was obviously injured. The scene froze.
The contestants watched the battle on the DVD over and over again several times. They could not tell anything else apart from the light and shadows that resembled those of a European or American blockbuster movie, Bind's ability to dodge and Loki's ferocious attacks.
But Loki's previous words were still ringing in their ears, "If you can study Bind's behaviour in this DVD, you might actually have a chance to survive."
With that in mind, the contestants had to carefully search for the mystery behind the DVD.
But at that moment, Sheyan walked up to them and turned off the screen. After thinking for a while, he opened the DVD drive, took out the DVD, and broke it into five or six pieces.
Under the astonished gazes of the contestants, Sheyan smiled and said, "Just look at it once.
"Just looking at it once is enough, there's no point in looking at it any longer. Because it's a trick that Loki threw out, to make us focus all our attention on this plate, and then neglect some important things. Oh, maybe the word 'important' isn't appropriate, but at least it's something that Loki doesn't want us to know."
Sheyan was already confident when he said that, but the look in his eyes turned a little gloomy.
"Loki seems to have explained everything very clearly and thoroughly. I believe that what he told us today is the truth, and he has solved a series of mysteries in our hearts. However, there is one most important point that he has skimmed over. That's why Bind suddenly abandoned the battlefield on our side and rushed to save people! "
Asked Reef in surprise.
"Isn't it because of the Divine Servants?"
Sheyan shook his head slightly.
"We've been dealing with Bind for a long time now. From what I know about him, he's definitely not a soft-hearted person. He's probably someone who thinks highly of himself, seeks revenge for the smallest grievance, and is narrow-minded. But he's also very talented. In the eyes of such a cold-blooded person, everyone else is just a chess piece in his hand! "
"He's been plotting against us for three or four worlds. It's obvious that he's determined to kill us! He's painstakingly plotted for such a good opportunity, but he abandoned it when he was about to force us into a corner. How … how could it be for the sake of the life of a so-called Divine Servant??? "
Hearing his explanation, everyone felt as though they were suddenly enlightened. Zi immediately said,
"Could it be that the so-called Divine Servant has something that he can't afford to lose?"
"That's very likely." Sheyan's eyes were as sharp as a blade soaked in water. "I don't think Loki came here so crazily because he wanted to avenge his brother. Maybe he also wants to fight for that thing!" Sheyan's eyes were as sharp as a blade soaked in water.

The contestants analyzed the situation while hurrying on with their journey. They soon escorted Jackson Curtis to the secure base. After escorting Mr. Curtis to the impregnable base, Zhang Heng asked him to do some tedious and time-consuming tasks, such as checking the accounts. At this time, news of the assassination of the country's leaders and some rich people had begun to spread on TV.
The contestants were not in a hurry to follow all this. Yes, they were waiting. Loki might be right. Bind might not be able to catch up with him, but as long as the contestants were under the protection of Professor X, Bind would be powerless! Therefore, waiting was sometimes also a form of attack.
Bind wanted to be the oriole, but he might also become the cicada that was caught first!
At the same time, Party Ace silently waited for the base to continue to expand in an amazing way. There was an endless stream of people who wanted to board the airship. From the moment these people paid for the airship tickets, they had already become one of their own.
Therefore, the information that the contestants wanted was soon found. In the face of the great pressure of survival for themselves and their families, very few people could maintain professional ethics and integrity.
Sheyan soon picked up a piece of paper. On it was a list of the representative works of American art. On the list, the crystal skull, the dagger of the Golden Priest, the eye of the Quetzalcoatl, and the fanged mask of the Indian Chief were marked with a red tick. The paper bag in Sheyan's hand was clearly marked with the time, location, and even the route they were transported to the Ark! (To be continued.
