Chapter 902 Hidden Universe
At that moment, everyone finally snapped out of it, raising their weapons and aiming at Dennis and Louie, eager to avenge Sable.
Since the building was still under construction, the spots where doors and windows should have been were just empty gaps. Dennis's crew, who had been lying in wait outside, suddenly stormed in and started shooting at the people inside. One by one, the bad guys dropped, and amidst the chaos, Dennis stood still, radiating a cold, sorrowful aura.
That unique and fascinating Abella, whom these people killed!"Mr. Medici, there is still noise coming from upstairs. They must have more people up there. I'll take some men and handle it. You wait in the car. The explosives are already set. As soon as we leave, we can blow this place."
"Don't let any of them get away," Dennis's eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty light. "I want them to pay a hundredfold, a thousandfold for Abella's death."
"Yes, Mr. Medici!" Louie had never seen this side of Dennis before.
Usually arrogant and wild, Dennis now radiated an aura of deep pain and anger.
"I'm going to find her."
Even if she was dead, disfigured, or had lost limbs, he would gather her remains and bring her home.
On the eighteenth floor, Maria's men exchanged glances, planning to seize the opportunity to shoot Abella.
But Abella was no ordinary person. She sensed their intentions immediately and kicked a chair towards them at lightning speed.
The bullets they fired only hit the chair, which shattered in mid-air.
Before the pieces hit the ground, Abella kicked another chair, sending it flying towards them and hitting several of them in the head.
Simultaneously, Abella kicked one of them, seized their weapon, and gained the upper hand.
The scene turned chaotic, with the sounds of gunfire, things breaking, and one insignificant person after another being taken down.
Lola couldn't see what was happening from her angle; she could only see Theo kicking and punching Maria.
"Stop... enough..." She was anxious but didn't dare to shout loudly.
Even though she had been confined at home for days, she still feared that someone might overhear her.
Maria seized the moment and threw some powder at Theo. He quickly covered his nose and mouth with his arm and stepped back.
Maria pulled a gun from under a fallen wooden table and fired several shots in Theo's direction.
Theo moved swiftly, dodging the bullets with ease.
Maria wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and pointed the gun at Theo. "How did you escape?"
The knots they used were unique to the Umbra League, impossible to untie without a sharp tool.
Theo smirked and lifted the corner of his shirt, "No harm in telling you. We hid a sewn-in blade here. Just pull the thread, and the blade comes out."
Not just him, Abella had hidden blades in the edges of her clothes, too.
Whether their hands were tied in front or behind, they could easily retrieve the blades and cut the ropes.
This method was something Abella had thought of years ago. The stitching on the edges of their clothes was different from regular clothes, and you wouldn't notice unless you looked closely.
Moreover, winter clothes were thick, making it easy to hide a small blade in the seams.
Besides the blade, the button on his cuff was a small pill Abella had made. He had rolled it up and hidden it inside, making it look like he had rolled up his sleeve because it was too long. Only he knew its true purpose—it could save his life in a critical moment.
His belt also had a hidden feature. Pressing a button on the side would quickly release a small gun that could fire four bullets.
This wasn't their invention. Secret armies from other countries had used such weapons in the late 19th century. Abella had just improved the old design to make it more suitable and safer for them.
Additionally, his shoes had hidden features too. Maria's men had only checked the insoles, but the key was the small metal buckle on the shoelaces. Pressing it for two seconds would release it, and throwing it on the ground would create a thick smoke.
It was one of their secret weapons—a smoke bomb.
So, when their car was surrounded by Maria's men, Theo had wondered why Abella had surrendered.
Because both he and Abella had different secret weapons, giving them a good chance to escape.
Later, Abella kept asking Maria questions and giving Theo signals, making him suspect that Abella was setting a trap for them.
But setting a trap aside, seeing Abella get beaten still pained him.
They worshipped Abella like a goddess, and Maria had bullied her!
"Quite the schemer..." Maria sneered, firing a shot into the empty space and shouting, "Everyone, capture them, skin them, and break their bones. I want them to die."
Before she could finish, Abella shot the weapon out of her hand.
Abella's aim was precise. With her last bullet spent, she discarded the gun and gracefully charged at Maria.
Maria, now unarmed, had to fight her barehanded.
But clearly, Maria was no match for her.
Abella's combat skills were honed through countless battles, far superior to Maria's.
Her techniques, speed, and strength gave her the upper hand.
Maria took a kick from Abella, stumbling back two steps, and glared at her, "Who are you?"
This was no ordinary person!
Could she be from another organization?
"If I had known, I would have stripped you and your men of all your clothes earlier."
That way, Theo's shirt button wouldn't have hit her face, and Lola wouldn't have been dragged into this.
"Even without clothes, without hitting your face, I could still record your voice. Besides, the hair tie on my head is a camera."
"What did you say?" Maria looked at the inconspicuous hair tie in disbelief. It had a small diamond crown, which didn't seem worth much, and didn't look like a camera.
"You're lying! That can't be a camera!" Maria couldn't believe it.
Abella squeezed the small crown, and suddenly, Maria's words played from it.
Lola, who hadn't hung up the video call, was stunned.
She had seen news reports about people making miniature cameras look like screws, USB drives, lighters, etc...
They looked nothing like cameras!
But she never imagined cameras could be made into buttons and small crowns, and so realistically.
What now? Abella and her men had "evidence" of her and Maria's crimes.
If this fell into the hands of the Medici family, she and Maria were done for!
