Chapter 833: Chapter 833: The Treasure Vault Chapter 833: Chapter 833: The Treasure Vault In other words, there was a secret passage hidden at the top floor of the entire office, with two exits connected, leading directly here.
Greg Jensen looked down toward the exit and saw a suddenly expansive dim room below.
Although the light was dim, under his Heavenly Secret Yin-Yang Eyes, he could see everything clearly.
This isolated room was surrounded by walls on all sides, with rows of dark wooden bookshelves that held boxes of various sizes.
Needless to say, whether this base was constructed by the Black Dragon Legion or Cherrywood, the fact that a secluded room was dedicated to storing these boxes ant that the contents were certainly not simple!
With that thought, Greg Jensen imdiately flipped down and headed to one of the bookshelves, casually opening a treasure chest.
What ca into view was a dark green bead the size of a fist.
The bead was covered in fine lines, and upon a closer sniff, there was a faint fragrance that, once inhaled, surprisingly brought a sense of comfort and ntal clarity.
“This is… a peak level six Beast Core? If I’m not mistaken, it’s also from a powerful ferocious beast with wood attribute special ability!”
Greg Jensen was pleasantly surprised, after all, Beast Cores were not common, and not every ferocious beast had one that was so well-ford.
The one before him was natural in form, round and smooth, with clear lines, and whether used for refining elixirs or directly consud, it could have an extrely obvious effect on the cultivator!
Even if put on the market for sale, it was worth at least tens of millions of US dollars, if not priceless!
Casually opening a blind box to find such a rare Beast Core, it was hard to imagine what else was inside the many treasure boxes left.
Greg Jensen closed the treasure chest and deftly put it into his Storage Ring, then he went along the bookshelf, opening each treasure chest to check.
Without looking it wouldn’t have mattered, but upon looking, he was startled; each one contained treasures rare in the world.
Such as various types of Spiritual dicines, martial arts techniques, ninja arts, Spirit Stone Elixirs, and so on.
This small enclosed room could truly be called a treasure trove.
He approximately counted them—sixteen rows of bookshelves with one hundred and sixty treasure boxes. He had a full harvest after one round of pillaging.
But when he got to the middle of the nurous bookshelves, he found there was a circular space cleared out.
“Strange! The shelves on the outside are tightly packed, as if worried there isn’t enough space, so why is there a deliberate clearance of three square ters here?”
This design couldn’t help but make one suspicious.
Greg Jensen carefully looked up, down, left, and right to see if there were any other chanisms, but unfortunately, there was no sign of anything for quite a while.
Was he overthinking it?
He tiptoed, ready to check the walls surrounding him.
But at this mont, he unexpectedly heard a crisp hollow sound coming from beneath his feet.
“This… This ground is hollow underneath?!”
To verify his guess, he stomped hard on the spot, and soon heard a “thud thud thud” sound, completely different from a solid floor.
It seed that he was not wrong; the designer wouldn’t leave a vacant space here for no reason. Since the ground was hollow underneath, it ant there must be a chanism to open it up.
Perhaps there were even more valuable treasures hidden below!
Well, it was indeed deeply hidden!
Greg Jensen laughed and imdiately began looking around.
In no ti, he found the switch buttons at the bottom of the bookshelves on both sides.
He placed two heavy objects on the buttons, and with a humming sound, the round space in the middle started making noises of chanical turning.
Then, the circular wooden board slowly contracted, revealing a round hole in front of him. A strong sll of blood imdiately wafted out from within.
Greg Jensen instinctively leaned forward and saw that beneath him was a cavity more than half a ter deep, similar to a well.
It was filled with scarlet blood, and about three inches above it, four ropes tied a tray that hung in midair.
On the tray lay a blood-red, round object, roughly the size of a fingernail, resembling a bead, but without the luster of one.
He reached out and took the round object to examine it closely.
“This… this feels like a seed… Odd, what kind of seed needs to be nurtured with blood? And why hide it so deeply?”
The Black Dragon Gang and Cherrywood had secretly built a research base here, also engaging in plant research. Could there be an unspeakable connection between the two?
Furthermore, this seed must be a finished product, right? Otherwise, there would be no need to hide it here; it should have been taken to the Ancient Clan for research!
“Forget it! I’ll ask Karen Milton and the others when I get back!”
The Ancient Clan, with their profound knowledge and ancient teachings, should surely know the origin of this seed!
Having clarified these thoughts, Greg Jensen pocketed the seed and couldn’t resist taking out the Soul-snatching Flower that had devoured Zach Thompson.
“Tsk, tsk, a new batch of Soul-snatching Flowers that can rge autonomously. I wonder what Special Ability I will gain if I consu it!”
…
As Avalon, Bear Country, and other border regions fell into disarray, forces from various nations flocked toward the Dark Golden Triangle.
From a distance, the dense armies lood like a dark storm over the city, an aura of grim death pervading heaven and earth!
Leading the way, General Phil Donovan of the Freedom Alliance commanded the cha troop ahead of everyone else.
“Have we made contact with those bastards in the Golden Triangle yet? If they don’t surrender soon and hand over the Soul-snatching Flower willingly, huh, today, I will surely level them to the ground!”
“Reporting to the General, we still haven’t received a call from Derwin. It seems he doesn’t plan to negotiate with us. He is disrespecting the Freedom Alliance!”
“Hmph, it seems he is dead set on opposing the Freedom Alliance!”
Phil Donovan snorted disdainfully, his face full of contempt.
In his view, although he had only led an army of two hundred thousand this ti, they were all cha units, equipped with new weapons and top-of-the-line gear from around the world!
With these, he was more than capable of crushing the Black Dragon Legion, not to ntion that Derwin was up against not just the Freedom Alliance but also the other major regions.
He didn’t believe that under such pressure, Derwin would not compromise!
People around him frowned and suddenly spoke up:
“General Phil Donovan, we naturally need not fear the insignificant Derwin, but this ti we must also contend with the military forces of other regions! It’s doubtful that we can easily take the Soul-snatching Flower for ourselves!”
In other words, in the face of imnse interest, those regions might not give the Freedom Alliance any face, wanting to take the lion’s share or even monopolize it, potentially at a great cost.
“They don’t get a say in this! Whether it’s the Soul-snatching Flower or this technology, in anyone’s hands, they are hot potatoes. Whoever dares to hold them becos the public enemy of the world!”
Phil Donovan glanced at him, proudly saying:
“Even if I nod in agreent, willing to let them have these things, do you think these small countries would dare to take them?
“Only our great Freedom Alliance has the right to take down this technology!”
What he didn’t say out loud was that when the ti cos, just fobbing off these small countries with a few Soul-snatching Flowers would be enough, no need to care about them!
The pressing matter was to find Derwin and force him to compromise with himself!
