Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

'That's it?' Zachary was stunned. However, before he could say anything, he felt a strong force sucking him towards the darkness that engulfed his body all of a sudden.

Before he realized what had happened, he was blown out of the pond by a huge wave of water. When he was about to fall into the pond again, he saw a giant shadow moving with an amazing speed to the end of the pond. Wherever it passed by, the water level rapidly dropped and the water was drained in the blink of an eye. Soon, Zachary felt that he was dropping into a bottomless cliff.

In mid-air, Zachary realized that he would meet his death if he didn't act quickly. As such, without wasting another second, he took out the Treasure-hunting Compass and summoned the Blazing Roc.

Orion appeared out of thin air, swooped down instantly and caught Zachary before landing comfortably on the ground.

After Zachary landed safely, he stared at the dried up pond with amazement. He never thought that he would meet such a magnificent beast in such an unsuspecting place. The fact that he now had a drop of the Olden Divine Liquid made him feel excited about what was to happen next.

After sending Orion back to the compass, Zachary realized that his time was almost up. It was time to go back to keep an eye on Polly. On his way back, he accidentally found two more treasures. However, compared to the Olden Divine Liquid, they were not interesting at all, regardless of how powerful they were.

Just when he was about to return to the assembly point of Polly's group, Zachary saw a figure rushing out from the other side, chased by a serpent as it spat out a dark green-colored liquid from its mouth.

The person ran in zigzags to evade the beast's attacks, but it was too fast to outrun. It stretched out its jaw wide open and charged towards the person. In a last ditch effort to save herself, the person jumpe

We just need to keep our eyes and ears open around her. It shouldn't be too difficult!" Rita said.

"If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have put so much effort to keep an eye on her," Zachary complained, shaking his head. In truth, he had been taking it easy these past few days.

"Did you really think that I would believe you? I'm sure you must have had a good time yourself!" Rita knew Zachary all too well. He was the kind of person who would seize every chance to take advantage of the situation.

"Is that what you really think of me?" Zachary said with an innocent look.

"Stop pretending. You can leave now. As for your reward, I will give them to you after we leave the Incredible Space," said Rita, and she seemed annoyed by Zachary.

"Then I'll go now." Zachary nodded his head.

"By the way, on my way here, I ran into a few supervisors. They told me that some disciples had sent out signals to quit. They seemed to be in trouble and the area from where the signals were sent out seemed to be the same area your team was responsible for in the investigation, so, it is probably..." Rita reminded Zachary right away as soon as the thought appeared in her mind.

Zachary's face turned solemn before he disappeared in an instant.
