Chapter 2675

Author: Chu
Jeeves considered Frank's suggestion and nodded in agreement—as long as the archaeologist stayed away and Frank only told him like it was a tale, they could avoid exposing their own secret.

Still, he said, "It works for me, but I'm not sure if your archaeologist is the real deal."

Frank chuckled. "Don't worry—she's really amazing. Just tell me everything!"

With that, Jeeves elaborated about everything in detail, about how his ancestors scoured every inch of this place in search of treasure but still could not find anything.

Even if someone did take the treasures away, there should still have been signs—that was why they were convinced that some sort of mystery was at work here.

"Have you heard of the supreme gourd?"

"That's a mythical treasure—everyone would have heard of it. Are you making fun of me, old timer? I've read about the monkey myself!"

Jeeves' expression was dead serious. "Well, in all likelihood, they used a tool like the gourd to hide all the treasures."

    "Alright, see you later!"Sylvie soon arrived, and Frank told her everything.To his surprise, Sylvie was not surprised!"What, was there a precedent?" Frank asked.Sylvie nodded. "Not everyone is a poet, and in all likelihood, they plagiarized someone famous. It's not just Slender Shade—the Verselet Works is a well-known target too." "Anyway, you can fly, can't you? Take me up to the skies and check out the surroundings!"Frank then picked her up and took to the skies.Sylvie looked around, and her eyes lit up. "So that's why they used such a cliche poem for the riddle!"Frank was at once interested. "You have an idea now?"Sylvie pointed at the layout around them. "Just look at the landscape around Huxlem. Don't you think the town forms something like a cottage?"Frank looked from afar.It was a stretch, but the hills around Huxlem boxed in the city like a natural fence around the lawn of a cottage."And then check out that river. Don't you agree that it's wide?"Frank

    Sylvie smiled, shaking her head. "I'm hardly formidable—you are! The ancients would not have the ability to fly this high to survey the entirety of Huxlem. Heck, not even modern drones can do it. We are only able to see all of this thanks to you."Frank smiled and landed with Sylvie, telling her to wait while he went off to meet Jeeves.Jeeves nodded when he saw Frank. "How did it go, kiddos?"He was not holding out much hope, but even if he knew that Frank could come up short, he still felt anticipation.After all, who could resist the temptation of endless treasure?To his surprise, Frank nodded. "I've found the answer to the riddle! Why don't we go together to check it out, just so you won't accuse me of keeping everything to myself?"Excited, Jeeves exclaimed, "Do tell us in detail!"After Frank told Jeeves the answer that Sylvie found for the riddle, Jeeves asked, "Wait, how did you see the full layout of this place?""With a drone, of course!"Frank had to lie since Jeev

    After all, Lassie was famous in the neighborhood for being quite good in a fight. The fact that Frank could easily punch him down meant Frank was no ordinary man and was trustable on top of that!Even as he struggled to his feet, Lassie snarled, "You brat… You hit me! Just you wait—I'll make you suffer!"And with that, he fled the scene right then.Frank simply ignored him and walked up to Jeeves. "He's trying to stop us, most definitely because he wants to go looking for that coffin too, so we'd best be cautious."Jeeves frowned. "Really? But we've known him since he was a kid… He's not that bad!"Frank chuckled. "Not everyone can be as upstanding as you are, sir. People like him believe that wealth could be more important than their lives."Jeeves kept shaking his head regardless, and Frank decided against explaining himself further for his part.They were all going to Huxlem tonight anyway, and they would believe him when the truth was revealed right before their eyes.After

    Frank's moves already left Lassie horrified, but the bitch was this strong too?Where was humanity?"You actually used a knife, kid? I guess you really want a piece of me!"Jada picked up the dropped dagger and was ready to kill Lassie."Stop!" Frank suddenly snapped at her, and Lassie seized the moment to scramble to his feet, hop on one of the vans, and speed off.Jada returned to Frank, "He's going to bring more trouble if we spare him now, sir!"Frank chuckled. "Actually, I'd like more trouble! The residents didn't believe me when I told them that Lassie was never on their side, so I'd like to prove them wrong!"Jada nodded in realization and threw a thumbs-up. "You're the best when it comes to toying with people, sir. I can't even hope to reach your level!"Frank chuckled. "Save the quips. Just go already.""Okay!"After sending off Jada, Frank met up with Sylvie, who was confused. "Why do I have to stay? Strictly speaking, you're the archaeological expert.""No, no, no

    Frank laughed icily. "Really? In that case, I shall teach you that a bitch is always a bitch!"And with those words, Frank blew from his mouth, his breath turning into a hurricane that lifted all the excavators up into the air!Everyone from the residents to Lassie were left gaping as they watched, speechless.Where did that brat even get such power?!But for Lassie, once the shock wore off, it was time to face reality."Don't believe him!" he cried as he pointed at Frank. "I saw him talking to that whore just earlier! The same whore who would buy off your properties!"Since he was not getting away with it now, he just had to expose Frank to ensure their mutual destruction!To his disappointment, however, none of the residents appeared upset with Frank, and Lassie certainly could not understand their reaction. "Are you crazy?! Aren't any of you thinking about the treasure?"Jeeves smirked as he retorted, "Even if this boy was really sent by that woman as you said, we all saw ho

    The residents were not even upset, and they even laughed. "With such power, none of us can stop him if he wants to take the treasures for himself anyway. That's why we trust him."Sylvie rolled her eyes, while Frank chuckled. "Don't keep trying to make me look bad. Did you think everyone would just stop functioning as soon as they see artifacts like you?"Sylvie snorted. "Do I love artifacts that much? It belongs in a museum, so that everyone can see it!"Winking at Frank she then purred, "And aside from artifacts, I'm also interested in handsome men!"Frank chuckled and picked her up before leaping down.Soon, they arrived on the ground beneath. Frank's ring then shone, and Sylvie turned to see a coffin laying on the water. It was flowing along the current but much slower, as if bound by water.It was a strange coffin too—it looked like it was carved out of jade, and Sylvie noticed how smooth it was as she touched it. The surface was sculpted with detailed patterns, and it cou

    Nonetheless, the vial was not budging no matter how hard Sylvie pulled.As such, she had no choice but to level a doleful look at Frank, hoping that he would help.Frank chuckled. "I guess that's what they call a spatial storage item!""Spatial storage item?" Sylvie was mystified. "As in, like the spatial rings spoken of in novels? Then shouldn't it be light? This thing weighs a ton!"Frank chuckled. "That's just fiction for you. In reality, nothing can actually remove the weight of an object, so it'd make sense if it weighs a ton."That also explains why the coffin doesn't flow rapidly along with the undercurrents. This thing was weighing down on it!"Reaching out and picking up the vial, Frank let it rest on his palm while Sylvie studied it.However, she only looked at it briefly before turning back to the jade coffin.Frank chuckled but was curious. "Why the sudden change of heart? I thought you liked it."Sylvie flashed a pained smile. "Preferences notwithstanding, I know

    Frank smiled and nodded. "I understand your concern, but the treasure is really all in this vial! I'm sure it was a trial that the prince put in place to confuse anyone seeking it."The residents nodded—that was the best explanation any of them could come up with anyway.Then, Frank opened the cork on the vial.Everyone stared at it in anticipation as it glowed, but nothing came out of it.The residents were left perplexed. But knowing that Frank was not taking the treasure for himself, they said, "It was never ours to begin with, it seems!"Frank smiled, shaking his head. "Patience. I haven't done anything yet!"From the moment he picked up the vial, Frank sensed that the spiritron carried the same energy as the spiritron vein, and that he could command it.It also explained what made the spatial vial so mystical—not only was the maestro an amazing craftsman, but it also carried the power of the spiritron vein.While Frank could not tell how the maestro came to know about the

    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
