Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Time flew and it was finally time for the Beast Tamer Space to open.

Early in the morning, Zachary returned to the Tiger Bamboo Forest to meet Jay and the others. As per Crane College's instructions, they headed to the wharf at the west end of the college. On the way, Vivian kept bombarding him with questions on his proposal to Alisa. News of the proposal had spread throughout all Crane College in the past few days, causing a great uproar.

Jay and the others also knew of it, but since Zachary had disappeared recently, they had no idea what had happened in detail as well.

Zachary didn't go into detail with what happened. He briefly explained that he had only done it to help Alisa get out of a predicament. She hadn't wanted to get engaged to Nathan and wasn't sure how to get out of it. While Zachary had answered her, Vivian still wasn't satisfied. It was ridiculous for her fiance to propose to another woman.

Listening to Zachary's explanation, Jay and the rest gave him a meaningful look. They found his explanation a bit farfetched. Zachary was aware that he wasn't qualified as an outsider to resort to a proposal to help Alisa out. But he had still insisted on doing so. None of them believed his excuse, but they said nothing and pretended to accept his explanation.

After reaching the dock, Zachary and his group found a large ship, enough to accommodate dozens of people. All the top fifty Imperial Level warriors on the list qualified to enter the Beast Tamer Space were already gathered by the dock. Barnes and another two Sage Level warriors were in charge of organizing and preparing everything before they set off.

Zachary looked around and then caught sight of Alisa and Linda. They stood side by side looking back at him. Realizing he had noticed them, he walked up to them and asked, "Are you going to the Beast Tamer Space as well?"

"Of course!" Linda responded in a chilly tone. She wasn't sure why she was angry at him, but she didn't feel like playing nice.

Zachary didn't seem bothered by her hostility. He shrugged and said with a smile, "I assume you guys are very familiar with the Beast Tamer Space. Can you be our guides, please?"

"No," Linda replied firmly.

Casting a glance a

e right direction.

The white fog around the ship faded away another hour later. Before long, things had become more visible. A small island appeared in front of Zachary. It was about a third of the island Crane College stood on. The entire island seemed completely flat without mountains. Thick ancient trees were everywhere in its periphery. He couldn't see the inner scene clearly. But, he sensed the powerful aura emanating from various kinds of treasure beasts, even from so far away.

"This is the Beast Tamer Space," Alisa told Zachary and his companions.

"I don't see anything special," Kemp said with disdain after a few quick glances at the island.

As soon as he said the words, the ship shook violently. A huge beast shadow sprang up from the other side of the ship. It swung its thick whip tail, water spraying into the sky. With a quick jump over the ship, it then dove back into the water, leaving waves floating on the surface of the sea.

"Wow, is this some kind of treasure beast?" Tracy exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, this is a treasure beast unique to the Vanity Kingdom. It has the power to control the water element. However, since it can only survive deep in the sea, normal people won't be able to subdue it," Alisa replied with a nod.

'The Beast Tamer Space is the perfect place to take action. The opportunity to teach him a lesson is coming, ' Kemp, who was standing behind the crowd, thought to himself as he glared at Zachary with a gloomy face.
