"In addition, the types of guns found here also include tear gas, explosion-proof shields, lasso guns, Colt 0.45ACP Caliber Semi-automatic Pistols, MP5 series 9mm submachine guns, HK33K, M177 and other types of 5.56mm assault rifles, Remington 700 custom sniper rifles, Benelli M1Super90 Tactical Shotguns, Benelli 121-M-1 semi-automatic shotguns, special fire-resistant battle suits, tactical vests, all-black headscarves, special protective goggles, and Kevlar bulletproof helmets."
The Beggar Gang Disciples added, "Just the security equipment alone amounts to over twenty sets. Each set is worth about 15,000 to 20,000 US Dollars!"
"Take them all away."
Allen Zhang nodded in satisfaction. He then took a Remington 700 custom sniper rifle from a Beggar Gang Disciple, and after their adjustment, tried aiming at a distant target, pulled the trigger, and with a snap, splinters flew, piercing through the target.
Old Jack looked at the boxes of munitions and bullets being shipped out, some with police markings, and said with puzzlement, "These are police equipment, identical to the models used by Los Angeles police department. It’s impossible for ordinary people to purchase these. They must have gotten their supplies through underground arms dealers or police channels!"
A brief count determined the value of this batch of weapons to be between 250,000 and 500,000 US Dollars at least. This did not even include that little bird helicopter.
Allen Zhang, along with Old Jack, headed for the hangar. The Beggar Gang Disciples were moving cargo, and they also saw a classic "Little Bird" helicopter with a dark hue inside, whose firepower could be rated as a miniature version of an Apache.
This thing often appeared in movies and dramas, like "Black Hawk Down" and "Sniper: Ghost Shooter," and games like "Delta Force: Black Hawk Down," "Battlefield 3," and "Battlefield 4."
Unfortunately, this Little Bird helicopter did not match those models and was of an older type with fewer weapons installed. It was only suitable for rapid infiltration urban warfare and did not fit the current modern warfare, nor did it compare in production cost to the Black Hawk and Apache.
But even so, this handy Little Bird helicopter still fetched a market price between 700,000 and 2,000,000 US Dollars! There were plenty of people on the market willing to buy it, especially terrorists in South America who sought it fervently but could not obtain it.
Should I say it or not, Heaven’s Gate is indeed wealthy. Just how much in assets do these bastards have?
After inspecting the Little Bird helicopter, Allen Zhang also decided to leave it here, as he intended to take over this advantageously located mountain campsite, making it an outpost in the suburbs.
He immediately sought out Blitz to ask about their total assets.
"That Priest has over 5 million US Dollars in private bank accounts, along with numerous fixed assets. Other followers also have hundreds of thousands in savings, but these assets have been frozen due to financial control measures, just ten minutes ago."
Blitz, looking at the situation displayed on the computer, mentioned, "After that satellite phone call was made, the private bank controlled by billionaires immediately froze all assets under Heaven’s Gate’s name. Additionally, some real estate and corporate assets in Palm Valley, Simi Valley, Lancaster City, and the Eastern Los Angeles region were sold in the first instance, with many underground powers scooping up these assets at low prices. This includes street gangs from Los Angeles like Florence 13 and the Biker Gang."
"Some of the police forces in certain regions also issued warrants related to Heaven’s Gate at the first instance! These correlate with the news of the Black Panther human trafficking ring that had been suppressed until recently. However, it’s strange that they didn’t mention a word about the campsite in the Qiliye Mountain Range. They only mentioned Heaven’s Gate followers wandering in the suburbs."
"They act this fast?"
Allen Zhang was somewhat surprised.
Those people moved like grasshoppers on a hot pot, coming across a hot potato, anxious not to involve themselves, and swiftly taking a series of actions. Clearly, they were looking for a scapegoat to survive, selling out Heaven’s Gate at the drop of a hat.
After Heaven’s Gate had outlived its usefulness, their own people were the first to think about getting rid of them!
They probably also assumed that the Priest wouldn’t survive and did not want the situation to ferment too quickly or get out of hand.
They straight up threw the blame on Heaven’s Gate. Without any leads, they would not be affected and still retained the initiative.
The General Sect Leader then informed the captured Priest of the situation.
The Priest was as if struck by lightning, his complexion changing drastically, turning alternately pale and flushed, and he gnashed his teeth in anger, bursting out, "Fxxk you! Those damned bastards! How dare they? That’s my asset!! By what right do they seize all my assets? No!!"
His mentality collapsed.
It felt like decades of hard work suddenly amounted to nothing and he was back to square one.
"You put your own money in someone else’s bank account, so it’s theirs. What makes you think it’s yours? When there’s trouble, they’ll decide when to cut you off!"
Allen Zhang was amused and watched as the Priest fell apart, teasingly saying, "You’ve done so many evil deeds, you probably never thought you’d end up ."
"Sir, please give me a chance! I want to take revenge on them! I had no choice before, but now I want to be a good person!" the Priest pleaded tearfully, "I know all the dirty deeds they’ve done! I can help you sue them!"
"Independent media, celebrities, officials, underground streets, they’re all their people. Trying to fight them within the rules they’ve set, to sue them, isn’t that seeking death?" Allen Zhang appeared speechless, "Now you realize your mistake? Fine, go and confess to God then."
