Awakening the War God

Chapter 232 Zoe's Deduction

Chapter 232 Zoe's Deduction

"Zoe, who is it?" Gabriel asked urgently, leaning forward.

To him, Zoe's 60% certainty seemed like a sure thing!

He was extremely curious about who was plotting against him and which organization was repeatedly trying to assassinate him.

Zoe held her teacup with both hands and slowly said, "Considering the terrifying members like Red Spider and Blunt Knife, this organization must be significant and undoubtedly international, not just a force within the Dragon Kingdom."

"After thinking it over, besides offending the God Temple, no other organization fits the condition during this period."

"Whether from Mia Foster's words or from Blunt Knife and Red Spider, it's clear it's not the God Temple. The most crucial point is that the God Temple has no need to hide its identity and could openly assassinate you."

"After ruling out the God Temple, another possibility came to mind. You might have offended someone, which led to an organization targeting you."

"This person must have significant status. So, one person came to my mind who might fit the bill."

"Who is this person?" Gabriel asked with a heavy gaze.

Zoe slowly uttered three words: "Alonzo Garza!"

"Alonzo Garza?" Gabriel stood up in shock, then shook his head, "But Zoe, just a few days ago, members of the Garza family, like Wayne, came to negotiate with me. They were humble and seemed to be in a cooperative state. They even promised to help me investigate my origins."

"I feel that given the Garza family's status, they wouldn't act so two-faced."

A few days ago, Wayne, along with Bernard Duncan, Peter Morris, and John, came to Silverwood. Except for John, they had reached some mutual understandings.

He had given them the map and Samuel, indicating a reconciliatory attitude. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Wayne had seemed very grateful at the time.

Given this, he didn't think the Garza family would secretly send assassins after him.

However, Zoe said, "You might be mistaken. Alonzo's attitude and actions might not align with the Garza family's. He's an extremely spoiled brat with a bad nature. His hatred for you might have led him to seek revenge privately."

"You should understand it this way: Alonzo, the individual, wants to assassinate you, not the Garza family."

"But if Alonzo is acting behind the Garza family's back, what forces could he use except the Garza family?" Gabriel asked again.

Although he felt Zoe's reasoning made sense, he didn't believe Alonzo had the capability without the Garza family's forces.

"Have you forgotten, Gabriel?" Zoe put down her teacup, "On the Black Pearl, Alonzo won the Life- extracting ID from the God Slayer with a high bid."

Gabriel's mind buzzed, reminded by Zoe's words.

Yes, that bastard Alonzo had won the Life-extracting ID for 20 million dollars!

Such a Life-extracting ID could command the terrifying assassination group, God Slayer, to endlessly target someone.

There's no mistake. It must be the God Slayer!

Zoe continued, "I think it went like this: the Garza family rescued Alonzo with your map and Samuel's help. But once back, Alonzo still harbored resentment against you. So, despite the Garza family's reconciliation with you, he secretly used the Life-extracting ID, activating the God Slayer to target you."

"This led to the attack by the five foreigners, followed by the assassination attempts by Red Spider and Blunt Knife."

"The timing matches, and I think this is the most likely guess."

Gabriel's face twisted in rage, his eyes fierce.

From his perspective, Zoe's guess was very likely accurate.

He was determined to make Alonzo pay a painful price.

Zoe added, "If this is the case, things are a bit tricky. There might be more assassins coming, and their strength might be even greater than Red Spider and Blunt Knife."

"We have two options to stop the assassinations: either stop them at the source, Alonzo, or destroy the God Slayer."

"Comparatively, it's easier to start with Alonzo."

"However, our conclusions are all based on speculation. We can't even prove the assassins are from the God Slayer, let alone get Alonzo to admit it."

Gabriel fell into deep thought. Zoe was right!

Even though he was almost certain that the bastard Alonzo was behind this, he still couldn't prove it.

"Ding Ling~"

At that moment, Gabriel's phone rang, interrupting his thoughts.

He saw an unfamiliar number.

Frowning, he still answered, "Hello? Who is this?"

"Mr. Gabriel, it's Wayne."

"Wayne? You have the nerve to call?" Gabriel's anger flared upon hearing Wayne's voice.

"Mr. Gabriel, why are you speaking like this? Didn't we smooth things over the last time we met?" Wayne was genuinely puzzled, unsure why Gabriel was suddenly so angry.

Gabriel coldly replied, "Yes, we should have been on good terms. But Mr. Garza seems to think otherwise. Ask him who he used the Life-extracting ID he won on the Black Pearl on. Am I still alive? Is he disappointed?"

"Life-extracting ID?" Wayne was taken aback, "That can't be right. We explained to Mr. Garza that you helped rescue him. We're friends and partners now. He wouldn't use the Life-extracting ID on you, would he?"

"Wouldn't he?" Gabriel's voice was icy, "You better ask him first before speaking. Let me tell you, I'm not someone to be trifled with. I've been patient and spoken nicely to you only because of my sister.

In my eyes, the Garza family means nothing!"

"If you can't control Alonzo Garza, I will say nothing. But the God Slayer has tried to assassinate me twice, even using top assassins like Red Spider and Blunt Knife."

"I'm furious right now. Tell Alonzo to bring more bodyguards when he goes out. Once I'm done with my business in the next few days, I'll come for him."

"Tell you, even Jesus can't save the ones I want to kill."

"Mr. Gabriel, calm down!" Wayne tried to soothe him, "I'll investigate this immediately. If Mr. Garza did this, we'll give you a satisfactory answer."

"Mr. Garza might be a spoiled brat, but the Garza family is reasonable."

"By the way, I called to inform you about the results of our investigation into your identity."

"Mr. Gabriel, please stay calm, and leave everything to me. I'll handle them one by one."

Gabriel's eyes narrowed, realizing he had applied enough pressure and just to see how the Garza family would deal with it.

Since Wayne had called as promised, they must have found some clues about his identity.

His tone softened, "Tell me about my identity first. As for Alonzo, you handle it."

Wayne said: "The Garza family has used great means and resources, but unfortunately, it did not lock your identity!"

"But in the process of searching, there are three mysterious special workers who have disappeared in the last five years, which may be related to you!"

"In addition to these three suspicious identities, we also found an additional message, which should be of interest to you!"
