Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 818 Troublesome Matters
Mountain Eagle really likes people like Lilith and Tiffany, who come from wealthy families and have their own dreams!
'Eagle Claw' and 'Camel' may not be super-rich, but they are certainly well-off.

This allows Lilith and Tiffany to minimize the influence of money when faced with problems, enabling them to make actions and judgments consistent with their personalities and professional responsibilities...

Clearly, Lilith believed the guy was rich, but she didn't quite believe he would willingly hand over $100 million as a reward.

Razer was frustrated. He couldn't say that his son and son-in-law had done anything wrong, because after all, this was their territory, and they naturally had the ability to collect debts. So they subconsciously ignored the chances that the guy would default on his debts, and they didn't consider that if the guy defaulted, they would be in a dilemma.

Whether you end up hurting someone to vent your anger and force them to pay back debts, or you get manipulated by that guy and have to accept discounted commissions, the outcome will be extremely foolish.

Mountain Eagle didn't leave Razer embarrassed for long. Once Lilith had the first-aid kit, he immediately called Tiffany to go with Razer to the hut where the wounded soldier was being cared for.

The mountain eagle had visited the cabin last night, but when he went back during the day, he found that the cabin was really dilapidated. The logs on the platform at the bottom had begun to rot in large areas, the corrugated steel roof was pieced together with patches, and there was insulation cotton oozing out from the edges that gave off a strange smell.

Because no one was adding firewood, the fire in the fireplace was almost out, so the temperature in the cabin wasn't very high.

Lilith went to the wounded man who was unable to move, checked his wounds, took his temperature, gave him a broad-spectrum antibiotic tablet, and then put him on an IV drip.

After doing all that, Lilith lifted the sleeping bag off him and glanced at him. Then, with a calm look, she looked at the obviously unnatural expression on the wounded man's face and said, "Sir, there are no professional nurses here to take care of you. If you don't want to sleep in your own urine, I can help you insert a catheter..."

However, this is not enough. I suggest you seek external assistance and find professional medical help.

The wounded man's face was flushed. He smacked his dry lips and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm waiting for my family..."

As he spoke, he looked at Razer and said in a pleading tone, "Yesterday I contacted my private doctor using Cahon's phone, and they should be here in two days at most."

Please let me stay here and wait for my family. As long as they are saved, I will keep my promise and leave this place, and I will definitely not cause you any trouble.

Razer ignored him and instead glanced at the Mountain Eagle...

Mountain Eagle pursed his lips, took a few steps forward, and snapped two photos of the guy's face with his phone. He then sent the photos to Kate, the member of the 'Bangkok team' who was staying at the brown bear camp to assist Dalia with Mexican affairs...

Seeing the wary expression on the wounded man's face, Mountain Eagle pulled up a stool and sat down by the bed. Then, looking into the wounded man's eyes, he said in a deep voice, "Buddy, you promised to pay $100 million as a commission for rescuing your family..."

Am I misunderstanding something?

The wounded man's eyes flickered. He struggled to sit up a little and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, as long as my family reunites with me unharmed, I will definitely not forget to pay the reward."

Hearing the man's somewhat ambiguous tone, Mountain Eagle glanced at Razer, whose expression wasn't pleasant, then smiled at the wounded and said, "One million dollars..."

The injured man's expression froze for a moment, then he said with some difficulty, "As long as my family is unharmed, money is not a problem..."

Mountain Eagle confirmed again, "You promised $100 million!"

The wounded soldier's expression froze for a moment as the eagle held onto the $100 million he was owed. Then, with some difficulty, he nodded and said, "No problem!"

After listening, Mountain Eagle nodded and said, "Going into the mountains for rescue in this kind of weather requires participants to take huge risks."

I'm sure you wouldn't mind signing a contract with us and paying an advance payment.

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle placed a cell phone on the bedside table, looked into the injured man's eyes, and said earnestly, "You certainly won't refuse us, right?"

The eagle's tone wasn't exactly stern, but it carried an undeniable air of authority...

The wounded man clearly hadn't expected this. He hesitated for a moment, licked his dry lips, and said bitterly, "I will pay, but I need to see my family first, because my checkbook is with them."

The mountain eagle sensed that this guy wasn't being sincere...

He chuckled and shook his head, saying, "The phone is right here. You can call your accountant and have them pay the deposit for you..."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle looked at the wounded man's slightly pale face and said with a smile, "You are a rich man. You even have a private doctor who can be brought to this remote place. You can't be without an accountant."

Making a phone call to pay the deposit shouldn't be difficult for you!

After saying that, Mountain Eagle placed a handwritten rescue agreement along with a pen on the bedside table, then made an inviting gesture, saying, "Sir, we need to sign a rescue agreement. I've outlined the responsibilities and obligations of both parties on it, and you need to sign it..."

Sir, you wouldn't want your family to wait too long in the mountains, would you?

The injured man took the agreement with his unaffected left hand, looked at it, and then said with a wry smile, "I can sign the agreement, but I probably won't be able to contact the accountant to pay the advance payment..."

Because my wife handles all financial matters, and I've run into some trouble, I might not be able to...

I hope you can understand my situation and give me some time. I promise that as long as my family is safely reunited with me, I will pay the commission in full, not a penny less!

Seeing the guy's attitude, Razer sighed helplessly and said, "Mountain Eagle, this guy has no sincerity at all. Let's go into the mountains together, stop those idiots from continuing their adventures, and then contact the police to deal with his issues..." "No, no, no, don't do this. I will definitely pay. As long as my private doctor arrives, I can have him pay for me."

Trust me, give me two days. Once my doctor and friends get here, I'll have the money for you.

As the wounded soldier spoke, Mountain Eagle's phone rang. He saw Kate's name on the screen, frowned slightly, turned and left the cabin to answer the call...

"…………"

A few minutes later, the mountain eagle returned to the cabin with a gloomy expression...

Seeing that the wounded soldier was still trying to persuade Razer, Mountain Eagle walked to the bedside and sat down. Looking at Tiffany and Lilith who had been standing to the side, he said, "This guy is Kerry Cantona. He was a former officer of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. After retiring, he started a company that specializes in contracting projects from the Army Corps of Engineers."

Last month, four old-fashioned bombs and a large quantity of munitions were lost from an Alaskan air force base, and this guy was responsible for that.

He is currently wanted by the FBI on charges including arms smuggling, bribery, insider trading, illegally subcontracting classified projects, and embezzlement.

The fighting that took place near a brown bear camp last month sparked an FBI investigation, which the U.S. Army has been obstructing. However, several people involved in the case suddenly committed suicide last week, while Kerry Cantona disappeared after the FBI contacted him…

It now appears that this guy, because the situation was so sudden, took his family and hid in a hunter's lodge deep in Alaska.

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle looked at the stiff-faced Kerry Cantona and said with a smile, "Dude, you're in big trouble!"

After his identity was exposed, Kerry Cantona's face flushed, and he said in a hoarse voice, "But this has nothing to do with you. If you can find out my identity, then you should know that I have the ability to pay $100 million."

If you keep my secret and rescue my family, I will give you $100 million...

cash!

I promise! "

After hearing this, the mountain eagle shook its head and said, "No, you can't guarantee anything..."

When you ask for help from outside, you expose your location. You think the FBI is scary, but have you ever thought about what happened to those people who died?

Actually, you're not hiding from the FBI at all, but from the people behind the scenes!

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle looked at Kerry Cantona's somewhat distorted expression and shook his head, saying, "If you really care about the safety of your family, then I advise you to honestly pay the fees in full at once, and we will arrange for your family to be placed in another safe place, or sent to a place you specify."

You can stay here and gamble on whether your doctor and friends have betrayed you!

Upon hearing Mountain Eagle point out his predicament, Kerry Cantona said with a pale face, "My partner betrayed me, and now I really don't have that much money."

However, there was 800,000 euros in cash in the hunter's cabin, which was my survival fund for taking my family to Europe.

"As long as you can guarantee the safety of my family, I'll give you all the money!"

As he spoke, Kerry Cantona looked at the dissatisfied mountain eagle and said helplessly, "I didn't contact my doctor and friends, but some people you can't afford to mess with."

I knew I definitely couldn't go to Europe in my current situation, so I wanted to use what I had to negotiate with those people.

Those people already know I'm here. Once they find out you know who I am, you're in big trouble.

This is Alaska, where there are no laws in winter...

You can take 800,000 euros in cash, which, at the current exchange rate, is worth more than 1 million US dollars.

"If you can really help me get my family to safety, I will give you an additional $50 commission as a reward, provided I don't die in the end."

After listening, Mountain Eagle looked at Tiffany and Lilith beside him and said, "This matter is related to Cahon and the others. They are also descendants of Arctic foxes. What do you think should be done about this?"

Tiffany frowned, staring into Kerry Cantona's eyes, and said, "This guy is in big trouble!"
If Kahun and his men send this guy's family away, and he gains the upper hand in negotiations, those people will try to find his family as leverage.

"The whole village might become a target then; we shouldn't take the risk!"

"But it was too late..."

Kerry Cantona shook his head bitterly and said, "I've already informed them..."
