Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Chapter 558 The Primitive Cave

Zachary paused for a second before he opened the door and walked inside. Apparently, Vivian had been expecting him, because she didn't turn around but asked, "I overheard that you are going to hold a recruitment meeting tomorrow. Is that true?"

"Vivi, how did you find out? Or should I ask, who told you? You're so well-informed!" Zachary smiled at her.

"Well, there's nothing I don't know about the Xiao Clan. You should keep that in mind!" Vivian snorted in response.

"Will you come to the recruitment meeting tomorrow?" Zachary asked casually.

"It's just a recruitment meeting. It's not a big gala or anything like that. Why would I go?" Vivian asked, disapprovingly.

"Vivi, everyone shall be greatly honored by your presence. The recruitment meeting would be even more pleasurable if you were to participate!" Zachary answered in a cheerful tone, still smiling.

"Well, there's no way I'm going. I'm not interested in training treasure beasts in the first place. Anyway, my pill refining has reached its most crucial point. I don't have time for anything else," Vivian grumbled as she brushed him off.

"I take it that you're really fond of refining pills, but these pills don't smell right." Judging by the scent emitted from the furnace, Zachary could tell that the pills Vivian was refining were far from ordinary.

"That's correct. These aren't ordinary pills. I've refined them specifically for myself," Vivian replied casually, shrugging it off.

"You made them for yourself, huh? What special effect do these pills have, then?" Zachary asked with his eyebrows raised high. His curiosity had suddenly peaked.

"That's none of your business. Get out of here. And don't interfere with my pill refining again," Vivian scolded, pointing him the door.

Zachary simply shrugged and continued smiling. He left and went back to his room, immediately entering the system.

By the time he opened his eyes again, night had fallen and silence was omnipresent. Zachary, who was practicing in the system, suddenly heard Mimi's warning. Apparently, someone had entered his room, so he immediately left the system. He saw a beautiful figure pushing open his room's door and peeping inside. It was none other than Vivian!

"Vivi, what are you doing? Are you spying on me?" Zachary asked jokingly, standing behind the door.

"Ah! Damn you! I didn't see you there. Are you free now? I have a favor to ask." She gave Zachary a sharp glare and tried going straight to the point.

"What if I told you I was busy?" Zachary interjected before she could go on, shrugging his shoulders.

"I don't think so. I don't have time for your games. You have to be available," Vivian quickly replied in an overbea

get out of my way! I'm going inside!"

The Imperial Level warrior dressed in orange and the other Xiao Clan disciples who were guarding the entrance of the cave were stunned motionless for a split second. They looked at each other for a few seconds, and then they all stared at Zachary, as if he were some crazy fellow. First off, going into the Primitive Cave without permission was a felony, and doing so would allow them to kill him on the spot. His behavior was much like courting death, in their opinions.

"Take him down at once!" The Imperial Level warrior was red-faced and angry as he gave his order. Five Xiao Clan disciples immediately approached Zachary at a fast pace. They didn't look weak, and seemed to intend on smashing him into the ground with a single blow.

Unexpectedly however, Zachary escaped from the five Xiao Clan disciples in a flash and rushed directly into the cave's front entrance.

As they saw him, the Imperial Level warrior figured that Zachary was courting death. His face darkened as he quickly moved forward, trying to block him by himself. Right at that moment though, Zachary stopped sharply, and then ran parallel to the side of the entrance. The Imperial Level warrior felt that he was being tricked, and he was obviously pissed off. He immediately took the five Xiao Clan disciples with him and chased after Zachary, leaving five to continue defending the cave.

At the same time, Vivian was well prepared to deal with these five less powerful disciples of the Xiao Clan. She immediately took out a ball and threw it at the entrance. As soon as the ball fell, lightning flashed, creating a dazzling light. The five disciples immediately covered their eyes with their hands. However, in an instant, she passed them and entered the entrance of the Primitive Cave.
