Chapter 198 Is Calista Still Alive 

“Why? Because all of you here must die.” 

Callahan saw that Sterling was indeed intent on committing murder and silencing any potential witnesses. He didn’t even spare a glance at Calista’s lifeless body. 

Although he didn’t know the reason, he was extremely furious. Without hesitation, he fired his gun at Sterling. 

“You want to kill me? After you!” 

As the first gunshot echoed, a multitude of men in black emerged suddenly from behind Sterling. Their caliber was evidently superior to that of the mercenaries, clearly revealing them to be the trump card in Sterling’s hand. 

The moment those individuals made their appearance, Callahan and his companions realized they might very well meet their end here today, causing their counterattacks to escalate into a wild frenzy. 

Upon hearing the commotion, Jarrett rubbed his hands together in anticipation. “According to the sensor readings, Sterling actually only brought twenty–three people with him. The current situation is in our favor. Shall we make our move?” 

Calista shook her head. “No, there’s no rush. Let’s move forward. Although we could counterattack now and win, the casualties would be substantial. The spot up ahead is a better location for an ambush.” 

“Are you so sure that those mercenaries will cooperate?” 

“They’ll definitely cooperate. Callahan is no match for them. They’ll surely retreat toward us because they know we’re here. But whether they can pull it off is their problem.” 

After a moment of contemplation, Jarrett said, “Aren’t you concerned that Callahan won’t be able to resist and end up revealing us? If that happens, we won’t be able to catch them off guard anymore.” 

Calista analyzed, “Sterling will definitely not give Callahan a chance to speak in order to swiftly conclude matters. Having suffered an inexplicable fatal beating at the hands of their employer and lost two comrades, they will risk everything to give Sterling a taste of their strength. All he needs to do is lure Sterling’s men here, and we can take advantage of the complex cave system to ambush them. Now, let’s begin the ambush.” 

At Calista’s command, they all began to hide within the cave. 

Jarrett secretly admired Calista. She had anticipated the current situation that Sterling and the mercenaries would eventually clash

The group of mercenaries would have no choice but to fight for their lives. They would be forced to cooperate, luring Sterling deep into the cave and helping to deplete his firepower. 

In the end, when Sterling died, the mercenaries would have to be grateful to Calista for avenging the comrades. If the mercenaries also died, that would be ideal. They could save on the hiring fee. It was a situation where every person was used to their fullest potential. 

Chapter 198 Is Calista Still Alive 

Jarrett nodded, then witnessed a group of people barging in. Sterling’s party had dwindled to just sixteen individuals, and the number of mercenaries had fallen to a mere seven or eight. 

Seeing that they had arrived at a tunnel filled with numerous caves, Callahan knew his chance had come. 

“Sterling, you b*stard! You’ve fallen into a trap.” 

Sterling, who was shielded till the very end, was shocked. He turned around. No way! No word has come from my men guarding outside. No one has broken in… 

Unless… these mercenaries have teamed up with Calistal 

“Is Calista still alive?” There was a quiver in his voice. 

Upon hearing this, Callahan responded with a triumphant laugh that echoed throughout the cave. 

His expression was fierce. “You’ll see her soon.” 

Sterling forced himself to calm down. Since Calista was determined to monopolize the treasure, she certainly wouldn’t let others know about this batch of resources. She only had ten people with her, so he might stand a chance against her. 

What he didn’t expect was that she managed to win over the group of mercenaries in just one night. Indeed, these wealthy individuals who could pull strings were not to be trusted. He blamed himself for being too hasty this time, taking risks without setting up any defenses. 

At that moment, all of Calista’s subordinates sprang into action. However, Calista herself remained in the shadows. The sheer number of people that appeared took Sterling by surprise. He found himself completely surrounded. 

“How is this possible?” I have made sure earlier, Calista only has ten people under her command. Did she risk exposing the treasure and seek help from others? Isn’t she afraid of being double–crossed? Isn’t she afraid that the local government would find out and she wouldn’t get anything? 

Three factions were engaged in a fierce battle, the entire cave echoing with the relentless sound of gunfire. It was enough to make one’s skin crawl. 

The scent of blood grew thicker. Because Calista’s men focused on preventing Sterling from escaping, the majority of the firepower was concentrated behind him. Sterling found himself surrounded. For the first time, he felt the cold grip of death so close to him. Before today, he could never have imagined that a woman could push him to such a point. 

“Calista! What’s the point of hiding? Come out where I can see you!” 

Sterling’s voice was met with silence. Since he couldn’t break free, he had no choice but to proceed. further. 

“We’re going in!” 

Left with no choice, the people/under Sterling had to obey orders and charge in during the critical 

moment. 

Seeing Sterling rushing off to meet his doom, Callahan didn’t stop him
