"Now's not the time for that, Mr. Frankton!" Tigris exclaimed urgently. "We're in trouble! You have to come here quickly!"

"What's wrong?"

"You'd know when you get here!" Tigris cried and hung up before Frank could ask for details.

"What's wrong?" Lara asked, though she could tell that something was wrong too. "Sylvie will be fine alone. Let's go back together!"

Frank nodded, and they were soon back at the flatlands.

Before they arrived, they could hear noisy footsteps but found nothing when they went closer!

They soon found Tigris and his men huddled together outside the tents, looking around while trembling.

"What happened?" Frank asked, hurrying toward him.

Tigris almost broke into tears. "Can't you hear the footsteps? They're so close, but we can't see anyone! This place is really haunted!"

His men were all nodding and sweating down their backs.

"Haunted? Not likely!"

Frank did not believe in the paranormal.

But he did hear footsteps… Could it be…?!

"Wait, no… Someone

    The thugs were surprised by Lara's strength, but they still had numbers on their side.Blondie led the charge, but it really did not work as Lara's long legs swung at them like scythes, quickly flooring each of them.In four minutes, Lara wiped the sweat off her brow after taking down most of the thugs. "Anything else? I didn't even have fun!"Blondie smirked. "Don't get so full of yourself just yet. I still have the good stuff!" Whipping out a stun baton, he dashed straight toward Lara."Despicable!"Lara simply sidestepped Blondie and punched him in the face, knocking him out cold."Anyone else?"The floored thugs promptly shook his head, never expecting that the pretty face was not just a pretty face and was far beyond them in martial arts.It was not just them either—Frank was shocked too!Strictly speaking, it was definitely difficult for Lara to be this accomplished in martial arts when she had no cultivation!"No? Then leave!" Lara's tone turned cold.Terrified, the

    The first room Frank entered had a coffin placed dead center, with various other burial items around it.Upon closer look, there were signs that they had been moved."This isn't a tomb… It's a hideout!" Lara exclaimed."Wrong. This isn't made specifically to be a hideout—it was a tomb, later fashioned into a hideout,' Frank explained as he realized why there was no significant structural damage inside—someone had dug an additional passage directed here, a place to hide.Lara nodded. "Makes sense… But if there were people who used this as a hideout, why didn't they take the artifacts?""It's most likely because of the era when it was built," Frank replied. "Think about it—in which period would you need a hideout?"Lara realized with a start at Frank's explanation. "So they dug it during a war? That does explain it, since antiques aren't worth anything during such times."Frank nodded and led her to the next room—it was a lot less interesting, as it was mostly empty and the floor

    As Frank returned to the surface, he was surprised to see Tigris and his men waiting. "What are you doing here?"Tigris chuckled, scratching his head. "We followed the footsteps, since we were worried!""Go back and get me a car!""Why? What's wrong?" Tigris asked, noticing Lara just then, flushed as she lay in Frank's arms."She's been poisoned with an aphrodisiac and needs help right away.""For real?"Tigris did not seem concerned, even chuckling and asking, "Be straight with me—is it the type that can't be treated and needs a good time to be cured?""It can be dangerous but not that serious. Even normal medicine works—just get a car!""Alright!"Seeing that Frank was a real gentleman, Tigris quit joking and brought a car, and they rushed to the hospital.Along the way, Frank kept Lara's body temperature under control while he pondered how they were able to hear the footsteps beneath ground on the surface and so clearly.Nonetheless, they soon arrived at the hospital, whe

    "Okay…" Lara turned and smiled sweetly at Frank, the way she looked at him having clearly changed.After daybreak, both she and Sylvie were discharged as they had no further issues following checkups.They had breakfast together at a nearby restaurant before returning to the tomb.The construction team had already arrived, and Sylvie instructed them on where to dig.However, after clearing the surface level, they had a problem when they reached the lower passageway.It turned out that the structure on the lower level had a delicate design, and they would need to blow up the columns keeping the roof up with dynamite if they wanted to dig deeper.But if they blew up said columns, the entire tomb would collapse too!After weighing her options, Sylvie decided to allow the construction team to head inside the tomb to examine the column structure.Just as she expected, the support was perfect and would last a few more decades."Alright, then let's head down!" she said, steeling hers

    Lara was left flushed by Sylvie's question, and she stood in a corner in silence.Frank ignored them, however, and headed to the third room where he carefully rolled up the painting and put it inside a protective plastic bag. Then, he exhaled firmly into the air, ensuring that the scent of the Divine Delight was not in there before breathing a sigh of relief.That was when he noticed Sylvie standing at the doorway, asking, "Can I come in now?"Frank chuckled. "You're amazing. Aren't you worried about getting hit by the aphrodisiac?""Worried? Why? If the chips go down, I might not be the one losing." Sylvie sighed nonchalantly as she entered.She examined the View of Fureno painting and could tell despite the plastic bag that it was a fake.As for the other scrolls and paintings, they were old, but the artists and authors were no one famous.Sylvie was therefore a little puzzled—everything in that other room was the good stuff, but everything here was sub-par?However, after so

    But for some reason, the hero and his forces vanished in the midst of their campaign—not defeated, but disappearing on the spot.In remembrance, the peasants built this coffinless tomb for the hero.However, that story was just the tip of the iceberg. The murals on the east side had been vandalized, so there were missing pieces of the story that eluded Sylvie and the others.They were not particularly invested in the story either—people in olden times were superstitious, and transportation was terrible, not to mention they had to travel dozens of miles to get from one point to the other. In all likelihood, the hero's forces were decimated, and with the peasants likely kept out of the loop, their tale was adapted into myth.As such, the expedition did not dwell on it and continued surveying the chamber.That was not the case for Frank, however.Having come with a purpose, he also had a different interpretation—the hero's so-called power must have been stolen, infused to the thug

    After that, Frank did not hesitate to return and continued to move everyone up the surface by the pairs.Still, Tigris saw the look on Lara's face and went up to her to ask, "What's up, Ms. Gold? Is that your first time being carried like that?"While Lara had to be wary around Frank, she did not have to around Tigris, even snorting, "Don't look down on me. I've had more boyfriends than the number of women you've met!"Tigris was left chuckling in amusement, while Frank had moved everyone except Sylvie to the surface."I didn't know you were this good!" Sylvie exclaimed. "Why bother working as a bodyguard? You could well be the protagonist of a martial arts novel. How wonderful it'd be to live by the word!"Frank ignored her as he walked up and picked her up before vaulting on the surface.However, Sylvie remained latched around his shoulder, giggling, "My waist is quite slender, don't you agree? I don't mind telling you—I'm trained in martial arts, and I pack some muscles even i

    But that was how reality was for Frank, and it kept repeating himself!On the other hand, Lara was no longer in the mood for a bath after that rat scare. She strode out of the bathroom straight up to Frank. "You saw nothing!""Indeed."Lara nodded but remained dissatisfied—Frank's eyes almost bore a hole into her, but what could she do when she was too embarrassed to ask?Whatever—he did save her life, and she was the one who asked him to bring her here. It would be shameless of her to snap at him!"Thank you… for that," she said instead.Frank was actually puzzled by Lara's unusual reaction. "Don't you feel upset?"Lara smiled in wry amusement. "Then what am I supposed to do? Demand that I get a look too?"Frank chuckled. "See? You look so good smiling. Don't you get tired of scowling all the time?"Lara sighed, and as she watched the woman working on the chickens, she had a hunch that Frank had bought them. "I guess I could let it slide if you're making it up to me with that

    Frank snorted. "Alright, I'm hanging up. I'm getting started over here soon.""Yeah. Good luck," Jouri replied.Hanging up, Frank looked up at the waterfall overhead, and then at Skyler, who was standing beside him. "So? Is it time yet?""Almost… Now!" Skyler's eyes were glowing even as she stared at her watch."Alright."Frank looked up just as the skies abruptly darkened. "Ah, there it is—the eclipse."The sun seemed to disappear, and the world was suddenly shrouded in darknesses.And beside him, a stone door imbued with the power of the spiritron vein also rumbled as it parted."Got it!" Frank rushed inside without another word as soon as he saw it."Hmph. I'm surprised that you could reach this place." A cold, wrathful voice resounded inside even before Frank got a hold of his surroundings.Looking up, Frank found a youth in a black cossack and sporting grey-white hair, standing upon a cliff as he looked down on him.Frank chuckled. "Hehe. Like I said, I've come to kill

    Frank narrowed his eyes. "Is that so?'Crane shrugged. "I don't mind giving it to you straight—members of Torrent are actually… Ahem. A part of Torrent himself."Frank paused. "What's that supposed to mean?""You don't get it, do you?" Crane grinned. "Then let me put it to you this way—every member is a clone of Torrent.""A clone?" Frank gasped in realization."Yes," Crane nodded. "That's why I believe that challenging Crane is just suicide. You have no idea how powerful he is—only death awaits you down that path."Frank smirked. "Oh, but I don't think so."Crane rolled his eyes. "Fine, whatever—now listen closely. You will find Torrent in the Mystic Trail, but you would only find that place when the sun and moon coincide, and the entrance is beneath the waterfall south of Horton."As he finished, he snorted coldly. "I have no idea if you can actually do it, but I'm hoping you do kill him… Heh. I'm getting tired of being stuck under his control for so long."Then, waving off

    Frank abruptly turned, immediately noticing one of the Cranes crouching, ready to spring forward and blindside him."Got you!" He laughed."Hah! You fell for it!"Just as Frank swung a punch to pulverize that Crane, he suddenly burst into pus that splashed at Frank's face."Damn it!" Frank took a step back, surprised that the clone's presence was identical to the real Crane, and a trap on top of that!"Die!"The Cranes around him each whipped out a dagger, all of them stabbing at Frank at the same time."Get off!" Frank bellowed, unleashing a shockwave that sent all the Cranes flying across all directions."Frank! Above you!" Skyler suddenly shrieked."Yes! I'm right here!" A strange laughter sounded above Frank just as he wiped the pus off his face.Crane was suddenly directly above him, launching an aerial kick straight at Frank's head, and Frank had no time to dodge!"Die!" Crane's smile curled into a twisted angle as he saw that too.He was very confident with this kick

    "Disgusting…" Skyler murmured through her hand.Despite being skinned and scalped, the women were all still alive and singing to the music that was playing despite their anguish."Talk about a terrible fetish."Frank was scowling too—why were all the members of Torrent such sick deviants? It seemed like his plan to wipe them out was absolutely correct!"So, you killed my clone?"The lanky man on the couch slowly turned to level his bloodshot eyes at Frank.His lips were wet with bed as they curled upward into an eerie smile."Clone?" Frank narrowed his eyes."Hehe. It's a sage art."Crane shrugged as he stood up and wiped the blood off his lips. "It's only natural that you don't understand… Still, you deserve praise. If you can kill my clone, that means you're not just slightly stronger than Ghost."Naturally, the man was none other than the real Crane.Still, as Skyler studied him from a corner, even she could notice the strange twitch of his fingers, and his veins were pro

    Even as Crane ran, he was looking over his shoulder, his heart pounding. "No… I won't win in a one-on-one!"No, as long as I get back to my real body… we can do this together!" He frowned, having seen how Frank sliced off the pinkies of those hood rats. It hence quickly dawned on him that Frank was not just slightly stronger than Ghost, as Torrent had put it!"Almost there!" He gasped when he saw the signboard of Pegasus Showtown in the distance. "As long as I get there and rendezvous with my real body, that brat will lose—"That was when he turned and saw that a shadow had caught up with impossible speed."What?!" Crane's eyes almost popped out in bewilderment. "What speed is that?! Are you kidding—"Even as he spotted the shadow, the shadow turned into a youth with an impassive visage.His fist outstretched, he was clearly punching toward Crane's forehead!"Argh…"Even as Crane looked on, the youth's punch slowed down by tenfold, but his fist kept closing in.Then, whe

    Seeing Skyler sigh, the tattooed thug presumed that his extortion worked.He strode up, grabbing Frank's shoulder. "No one's gonna help you, boy. Pay up, or you're not leaving.""Exactly! You're not getting away!" the crowd of hood rats hollered. "Last chance."Frank's eyes were cold and fixed on Dani, however. "Are you going to intervene? If you do, you can keep that check. If you don't…""Ugh. Fuck off! I don't care!" Dani spat, her expression smug as she folded her arms before her chest. "Who do you think you are to threaten me?!""Exactly! Pay up, and you can leave!""Yeah! Ten grand, at least!""You probably don't know my boss Wyvern, but when he's here, you won't get away with just ten grand!"Even as the crowd closed in, Frank shook his head. "Well, you had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next.""You're giving us a chance?! Hah! Who—argh!"Even before Dani could finish gloating, Frank was suddenly in front of her, grabbing her viciously by the wrist."Arg

    "Five grand?! Did you hear that?! He just threw five grand!""Must be a rich kid coming here for a secret rendezvous, out of prying eyes? Those types are the easiest mark!""Fuck! And Dani got one of us… It hurts me more than losing at the races!"Frank could hear the buzz around him but ignored it as he strode past the men flanking him and headed toward the street that stank of blood."Stop!" A big tattooed man grinned sinisterly as he intercepted Frank.As his buddies encircled Frank as well, Frank snorted—it seemed that they took his reaction for a sign of weakness and thought that he could be cowed.The tattooed man rubbed his chin as he leered at Skyler's voluptuous figure, chuckling. "Look, boy. I'm short on cash, so let me take a loan. I'll pay you back some other day, how about that?"His friend laughed. "Exactly! You just gave Dani five grand, and we won't ask for more… just four, how about that?"Skyler scowled in turn and glanced worriedly at Frank beside her—was he

    Frank himself had just stepped out of the nightclub when his eyes narrowed."Blood," he murmured, his nostrils twitching."Blood?"Skyler sniffed the air, puzzled. "I can't smell it.""It's from the opposite street… I smell the blood of over a dozen people.""A dozen?!" Skyler did a double take.He could identify the number of people who were killed?! That was just ridiculous!"Come on, let's take a look."Just as Frank led the way toward the source of the stench, a woman suddenly came up, catching Frank off guard and throwing herself into his arms."Hmmm?" He looked down to see that she had thick makeup, average looks, and a rather pudgy belly."Argh! He touched me!" she pointed at Frank and shrieked even before he realized what was happening."What?!" Skyler was staring at the woman too, mystified."Oh, sister! You just didn't see it!"The woman kept hollering, pointing at Frank's face. "Your boyfriend grabbed my ass! Is that how you teach him manners?!""Teach him ma

    Wyvern screamed even as he clutched the stump that was his hand, screaming so shrilly one might mistake his voice as inhuman."Oh, just shut up." The lanky man glowered and launched a kick, reducing Wyvern into puddles of blood and pieces of innards, splattering all around the lobby. "Argh!!!" the devilish lady screamed as she watched the carnage unfolded."Another sound, and you'd end up just like him." The lanky man turned and frowned at her impatiently."Hngh…" The devilish lady promptly clasped a hand over her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes as she trembled."What the hell?!"Outside, Wyvern's lackeys heard the screams and ran inside, looking for him. "Hey, where's Wyvern?!"However, the lobby was too dimly lit for them to notice the blood and guts scattered around the walls, and they only sensed that terrible stench."Hngh…" The devilish lady was too scared to speak, and tears trickled out of her eyes."Fuck!"One of the lackeys strode up and seized the lanky man
