Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Once Jace and Goliath had finally left, Zachary started to look for Joan. After some time, Zachary noticed Joan not far from his left side. A group of people from the Phoenix Pavilion surrounded her as they moved to their destination. The moment he saw her, Zachary immediately used Shadow Pace and rushed towards Joan.

"Hey, Joan!" Within seconds, Zachary appeared beside her.

"Who's there? Harley!?" Joan was stunned for a while. However, when she realized that Zachary came alone, she asked, "Where is Pollard?"

"He's already in a safe place. He asked me to come to you and send you there too," Zachary replied in a warm tone.

"No, I won't go. I have to fight with them side by side!" Joan refused in a determined tone. Even if she had to risk her life, she couldn't let her companions fight without her.

"Well, it's not up to you. If something wrong happens to you, I can't explain it to Pollard. Since you don't want to go there voluntarily, don't blame for being rude!" After he said such a remark, Zachary suddenly turned his hand. With great swiftness, he approached the woman and tried to grab her shoulder.

When she saw Zachary's approach, Joan immediately turned to avoid his grab. She already knew that if she was caught by him, it would be too late for her to escape. However, she forgot something. At that moment, his strength had surpassed her by at least two grades. As such, he had an overwhelming advantage. Even though she leaned her body to one side, he was still faster than her. Before she could even react, he had already put his hand on her shoulder.

Suddenly, there was a flash of light. The next moment, she had already disappeared.

After she left, Zachary looked up at Jace who was approaching the Sun-swallowing Beast. Suddenly, a dozen rays of light appeared behind Jace. The rays constantly condensed in midair. Instantaneously, weapons of Sage Level with different shapes appeared.

It was impossible for ordinary people to create more than ten weapons of Sage Level in such a short time. The creation not only required the strength of Sage Level but also an extraordinary weapon refining level. The most amazing thing was that it was extremely difficult to cast and refine the weapons of Sage Level, even for ordinary warriors of Sage Level. Therefore, an ordinary warrior of Sage Level had two to three weapons of that level at most.

That was why everyone was surprised when Jace instantaneously produced more than a dozen of them. It strongly proved that he was worthy of his reputation as the No. 1 weapon refiner in the Devil Kingdom.

The other warriors suddenly quieted down. The magnificent display of Jace's ability made them stop and watch in awe. Not one of them had ever witnessed a warrior produce more than ten w

ry didn't understand why Jace had to save those selfish and ungrateful people. The bastards weren't even from his own clan, yet Jace was more than willing to sacrifice himself.

"One day, you will be a leader. At that time, you will understand why I'm doing this." After he finished his words, Jace rushed to the beast again. With a determined expression, he totally disregarded Zachary's attempt to stop him.

"Please, Master Jace!" Zachary looked at Jace's receding figure and shook his head in disappointment. However, he immediately ran and caught up with Jace because he couldn't just watch a comrade die just like that.

At that moment, the beast had been irritated by Jace's aggressive momentum. With a ferocious expression, it charged towards Jace while a loud roar echoed from its mouth. As it stamped its foot, ten pillars made of flames rushed out of the ground. The flames burned brightly and instantly trapped Jace in the middle of them. After that, the beast opened its mouth and spewed out a huge ball of fire. The destructive ball flew directly towards Jace. Unfortunately, he was already trapped by the pillars and couldn't get rid of them for the time being. In the blink of an eye, the ball had rushed and was about to detonate in front of him. If he was hit again, no matter how strong he was, he would die.

When he saw the predicament, Zachary, who was outside the pillars, frowned. Immediately, he realized that if he couldn't save Jace, the consequences would be unimaginable. However, with his strength, it was impossible to save Jace. Then, he looked sideways and told Mimi "Use the Summoning Token!"

The moment Jace was in greatest danger, the Treasure-hunting Compass in front of Zachary's chest suddenly lit up. Then, a ghostly shadow floated out of it. The shadow condensed and gradually turned into a human shape.
