Awakening the War God novel Chapter 138

"Dr. Louis, I'm putting my trust in you one last time. You have to save Zoe, or you'll be dead, and I mean every word."

Gabriel shut his eyes tightly, giving in.

No matter what, he needed to secure more time for Zoe.

At this moment, Dr. Louis was his only hope.

"I promise with my life that I'll do everything in my power to save Zoe! In a way, this is about saving myself too!"

Dr. Louis's tone shifted, firm and resolute.

Indeed, this was his chance at redemption.

Only Zoe's survival would give him some solace.

Without wasting any more time, he joined forces with a nurse and wheeled Zoe away.

"You sons of bitches who dared to steal Zoe's heart, I swear I'll tear you limb from limb!"

Gabriel's eyes blazed with anger, and his murderous intent was palpable.

He clenched his fists and stormed out of the ward.

The elevator was too slow; he took the stairs, descending floor by floor with a few jumps.

In no time, he reached the ground floor.

Pulling out his phone, he called Santos.

"Hey? Gabriel, is everything sorted on your end? The Blood Scripture has gone missing!"

Santos answered, sounding frustrated.

The Blood Scripture had disappeared exactly at the time scheduled by the Mysterious Thief Robin Hood, vanishing into thin air.

But at this moment, Gabriel couldn't care less about the Blood Scripture.

He was on edge, his voice cold and tense. "Santos, I'm sorry, but I really don't have time for that right now! I need you to do one thing-impose a complete flight ban at the airport, ground all planes. I'm searching for two individuals!"

If those two bald men in robes had obtained the heart, they might very well try to escape by plane.

The heart was unique, and flying was the quickest and safest way to transport it.

Even though it had been quite some time since they acquired the heart, if Gabriel could reach the airport in time, there was a chance they hadn't left yet.

He knew the odds were against him, but he had to try.

Only by retrieving the heart could he save Zoe.

Santos let out a deep sigh. "Gabriel, even though I'm a senator, my authority doesn't extend that far. Ordering a complete flight ban at the airport is a major undertaking."

"Here's the deal: tell me who you're looking for, and I'll do my best to get the airport authorities to assist in locating them!"

Gabriel frowned, knowing this matter was beyond Santos's jurisdiction.

After taking a moment to collect his thoughts, he replied, "They're two bald men in robes. I don't have specific information about their identities, but they should be carrying a temperature-controlled box. Inside that box is a heart."

"Alright, stay tuned for updates!" Santos hung up the phone.

As the call ended, Gabriel took a deep breath.

He silently prayed, hoping to recover the heart.

Zoe couldn't die!

In front of the hospital's outpatient building, three ambulances were parked.

He approached them and shattered the driver's side window with his elbow.

Unlocking the car from the inside, he hopped in. After a brief moment, the engine roared to life.

Just as he was about to speed away, the passenger door on the co-driver's side swung open. He turned to see Blind John had jumped in, his tone grave as he said, "I'm coming with you!"
