Chapter 85: The Old Wizard’s Prophecy

There was a stack of bills on the table, and there were a few tens and one-dollar bills on it.

All the bills looked new.

“They were actually directly exchanged for cash.”

Jack looked at the bills in front of him and felt that they were somewhat magical. He picked them up and lightly shook them.

Whoosh!

The sound was very pleasant to the ear.

It was more than seven thousand dollars, and it was more than what he had earned in the last few months in his job.

Jack was very satisfied with the live broadcast this time. He had received excellent reviews, and he had also received the gift bag of death. He had also received the most commission. In short, it was a huge harvest.

In a remote mountain village in northern Canada, a man in his fifties was squatting outside the room like a vulture, smoking a pipe. His eyes were gloomy, and his face was as cold as the ice and snow around him.

“Master Wilcox, the live broadcast has ended. I’ll go home first.”

Next to the man stood a boy who looked about eighteen years old, holding a phone in his hand. Looking at Wilcox’s face, his body trembled in fear.

His intuition told him that Wilcox’s eyes had murderous intent. Although he looked calm, he was definitely in a state of extreme anger.

The boy then left. The man was like a statue.

There was a gray wolf tied to the corner of the house. At this moment, the wolf’s fur stood up. Its sharp front claws were deeply embedded in the frozen soil. It was looking at its master with its head slightly lowered. Its eyes were shining like sharp knives.

That afternoon, the quiet village was unusually restless.

“Wilcox’s son was killed in that live broadcast.”

“That’s too cruel. I heard that he was crushed into minced meat!”

“I think he deserved it. He killed so many people. How miserable are those people? He even ate human flesh. He’s not human at all!”

“Yeah! How can there be such a person in our village? He’s even worse than an animal!”

“It’s just that Wilcox is pitiful. He’s already so old and has nurtured the only college student in the entire village. His own son had become a murderer. His wife is dead, and his son is dead too. He’s the only one left.”

The small village became lively. There were all sorts of things to say.

Wu wu wu!

Gray Wolf, who was at the corner of the wall, let out a low growl.

A man with a gloomy face walked in. There was a long vertical scar on his left face, as if someone had cut him with a knife. It was very frightening.

The man looked at the gray wolf coldly. The gray wolf immediately lowered its head and buried it in its stomach. The growl also disappeared.

“Wilcox, about Gardner. I already know. It’s fine that he killed people, but he still ate human flesh. He even attacked children. He had no humanity. I say that he really deserves to die.”

Wilcox spat out a mouthful of thick smoke and stood up. Instantly, the gray wolf in the corner of the wall fell to the ground. Its sharp, knife-like eyes instantly became very gentle.

“You’re right. He killed someone. He deserved to die, but the Death Inquisitor has also killed my son. I want him to pay with his life.”

“But that Death Inquisitor is very powerful. The police haven’t caught him for a long time.”

“He is indeed very powerful, but don’t forget who I am.”

“Of course. I know what you’re capable of. You held a knife back then and single-handedly killed seventeen enemies. Your waist was covered with human heads. I can still see this scene today, but you know what happened to your son was different. You don’t understand how powerful the Death Inquisitor is. The police have no clues at all. You don’t even know what he looks like or where he is. How can you fight with him?”

“That’s my business. It has nothing to do with you. That wizard once told me that my son’s soul was very bloody and cruel. He asked me to teach him a hard lesson. He told me I can’t let him leave the village until he’s twenty years old. Otherwise, he’ll die a horrible death. I didn’t believe it at that time. I dug out one of the wizard’s eyes and scolded him for not being able to see clearly. I didn’t expect him to be right. Now, I’m alone. I have nothing left to lose. I’ll go find him alone. You can go back.” After saying that, Wilcox turned around and entered the house.

The man in the courtyard stood like a stone pillar.

Pa!

The man lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. He also knew about the incident with the wizard back then, because in the end, he was the one who sent the old wizard away. Before the old wizard left, he said something that Wilcox didn’t know about.

“There are people at the southeast coast who will end his family.”

“Isn’t New York at the southeast coast?”

“This…”

Wilcox quickly packed up his things. He didn’t bring too many things. He only brought some personal belongings and a black dagger.

“Why aren’t you leaving yet?”

“You saved my life before. I’ll go with you this time.”

Wilcox saw that he had made up his mind and did not stop him. He nodded and said, “I’ll wait for you at the village entrance in five minutes.”

Zangwei turned and left. Wilcox walked to the corner of the wall and reached out to touch the gray wolf. Then, he untied the chain around its neck.

“You should go. The gray wolf shouldn’t be kept in captivity. You’re a natural killer, not a watchdog. You should follow your nature and go hunt.”

Five minutes later, Wilcox and Zangwei began their journey to New York.

At that moment, the weather in New York seemed to have darkened.

Meanwhile, at the office of Task Force Zero at the New York police station…

Their moods were very complicated.

Willie had also returned. Looking at Ross’s lowered head, he knew the result without asking.

Ever since Task Force Zero was put up and every time the Death Inquisitor ended a live broadcast, everyone’s expression was basically like this. They were almost used to it.

“You’re back. How are things on Your side?” Ross asked faintly.

“It’s already locked down. In addition, I’ve already sent people to search Gardner’s residence and found another child. However, he didn’t die and has already been sent to the hospital for emergency treatment,” Willy said.

“Very good. Finally, there’s good news.” Ross nodded, but his entire person appeared very weak.

“There’s one more thing. The scene of Adalind’s death has been found. It was in the basement of Gardner’s residence.”

Hearing this, everyone present was stunned. Anthony said in a low voice, “How is that possible? Didn’t the people upstairs hear anything at all? Have you checked the surveillance cameras over there? How did those props get in? Could it be that no one found them?”
