Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Upon noticing this, Queenie and Joan knew that Goliath and the two others wanted nothing else but to cause Zachary harm. Both Queenie and Joan rushed over as quickly as they could with the intention of helping, but it was already too late. Would they be able to do anything at all?

The trio launched their attacks simultaneously, tripling their danger. Three martial skills at the premium stage of King Level were deployed in no time at all. The light was shining brightly above them, causing morbid shadows. The blinding light flashed at great speed towards Zachary, as if it was going to devour him alive.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The strikes exploded in succession in close quarters with Zachary. Within seconds, the explosions morphed into raging winds and huge waves of energy, rampaging in all directions like an unimaginable natural disaster.

All the disciples who were watching nearby also felt stunned, so much so that they couldn't utter a single word, nor could they tear their eyes away from such a ferocious fight. Only one thought was on each of their minds: If they were to be attacked by these three guys, they would have no chance at survival whatsoever. In the same way, they all believed that Zachary was doomed to die this time. Doubtlessly, a certain few felt sorry for him while others thought Zachary was getting just what he deserved.

Both Queenie's and Joan's facial expressions suddenly changed, for the worse. All they had wanted to do was give Zachary a hand. Clearly, they hadn't come to his rescue on time.

It wasn't before long that Zachary's body was swallowed whole by the light created by the three warriors' near simultaneous strikes. And there wasn't a single sign of movement on Zachary's behalf.

Quickly noticing that Zachary wasn't reacting as they had expected, the three warriors took their success for granted. Of course, they were so utterly confident about their strikes that they believed Zachary had no chance of surviving anyway. For this reason, none of them bothered to chase him or get closer in order to confirm his death. Instead, they pulled themselves several feet away and kept a safe distance. They were still a little afraid of the Ice Liger.

Just when everyone was certain Zachary was going to die, a wave of strength burst out unexpectedly and dispersed the light that had devoured him earlier at once. At the same time, Zachary reappeared, showing no sign of injury on his body.

As they observed the scene playing out before them, all the disciples held their mouths open in shock. It was hard to imagine that Zachary wasn't hurt at all after the three had worked together to strike him fiercely.

The three warriors were equally rendered speechless and had even less something to say at the moment! What had just happened was simply beyond their imagination. No one had planned for this.

It was then that the Holy Bone Bracer on Zachary's wrist began to shine brightly. With that, it became obvious that the greate

ng their heads, a regretful expression on their faces.

"Your name is Harley, I presume?" Out of the blue, Goliath suddenly appeared beside Zachary. He stared at Zachary with sharp eyes and an overwhelmingly strong sense of evil spirit.

"How could you be so rude! You should introduce yourself first before calling my name! You should know better," Zachary sneered. He had been very interested in Goliath as well. He knew this man had hidden his strength, keeping it as a surprise for the final battle. Thus, Zachary doubted that his biggest opponent was probably this guy.

"Ah! Well, you can call me Goliath!" Goliath replied, informing Zachary of his name at once.

"Oh, actually, I already knew your name. I just want to confirm it," Zachary said promptly.

"You!" Goliath shouted angrily. Realizing that Zachary was obviously messing with him, Goliath glared at him with angry eyes, lack of having something to retort back. He was rendered speechless.

As they noticed his silence, both Queenie and Joan couldn't help but laugh. Goliath's face twitched, seemingly regretting having introduced his name again when everyone obviously already knew it.

"Harley, you said, right? I'll remember your face, trust me!" As soon as he finished speaking, he transformed into a phantom and vanished.

"How impolite of you to leave so suddenly!" Zachary called out to the emptiness, in a seemingly pitiful tone. As he shook his head, he turned to Truman and Anthony and said, "I'm sorry to have disappointed the two of you! You can't just defeat me that easily!"

Truman and Anthony glared at Zachary with daggers in their eyes, as if they wanted to tear him into pieces. However, now that Zachary had two top disciples, Queenie and Joan, to aid him at all times, they wouldn't dare attack in such a situation, no matter how arrogant they were and how confident they felt about themselves. All they could do was shoot a hateful glance at Zachary before they left sulkily as a group.
