Eternal Thief

Chapter 1734: Aftermath & Result of Evernight Trial (10)

  • Next Chapter

Ace was astounded when he saw, on the Live Fate Map, around one of the dangerous fate points, a ring of glittering silver was present!

This could only mean that fate point had a fortuitous opportunity he needed. Even though it was only at the glittering silver grade, it was still just a grade below the golden-grade fortuitous opportunity.

His heartbeat accelerated, but that wasn’t all, because not far from this glittering golden fate point was a glittering golden fate point with a gray ring and a black ring around it!

’A spirit treasure!?’ Ace almost swallowed his saliva as this was completely unexpected.

In the Live Fate Map, a living being’s fate point would always appear first through the color of their hostility level against Ace, and their danger level would appear in the shape of colored rings they possess toward Ace.

But if they are hostile from the start, their fate points would appear simply in the color of danger they possessed.

As for treasures, since they weren’t living beings, they never appeared on the map unless they mattered to Ace, and they appeared in the color of opportunity.

But recently, Ace had discovered something new about the treasures that possessed treasure spirits. They started appearing as living beings on the live fate map, dyed in similar colors.

However, there was a single difference: if those spirit treasures possessed opportunity for Ace, then the color of their opportunity would appear first, and then their hostility and danger grades.

That’s why Ace recognized this spirit treasure instantly.

Right now, there were three terrifying black fate points, and one of them was a silver-ringed opportunity, while there was a glittering golden-grade treasure that was useful to him, and its danger grade was also black, which means it was a spirit treasure of at least Abyssal Spirit Grade-8 or even Grade-9!

Although he had no idea what kind of help that treasure could provide, just its grade of opportunity was enough to make Ace tempted.

Yet it wasn’t over because the greatest shock came from somewhere else. At the edge of the Live Fate Map, that familiar dark-golden arrow appeared, and Ace’s pupils shrank because the arrow was pointing directly toward this region!

’The Absolute Opportunity is also here?! Just what kind of place is this?’ His heart nearly jumped out of his chest.

After all, he had never encountered such a concentration of fortune before, where all types of opportunities gathered in the same region.

Ace’s eyes became strange, as it had been a long time since he had pursued an opportunity of such magnitude on the Live Fate Map. After all, the absolute opportunities were always far away, and they came with certain dangers.

But now, it was pointing directly here, and even Ace almost couldn’t believe his luck.

For a brief instant, he nearly salivated, but he immediately suppressed the reaction.

His expression became solemn. ’No! Even if there’s an absolute opportunity that I desperately need, the danger here is too great! Now, I’m absolutely sure this place is the core region of the sanctuary, and three Evernight Kings should always be here. It’s impossible to snatch that treasure and opportunity!’

The combination was far too abnormal, including danger, treasure, fortuitous opportunity, and the absolute opportunity. All gathered in the core region of the Evernight Sanctuary, and this couldn’t possibly be a coincidence.

Ace’s eyes gradually narrowed. ’Don’t tell me the secret to completing the abyssal mission series is really present here? But this is just the first mission of the chain mission, so the clue shouldn’t be here!’

Ace’s mind calmed again; he couldn’t risk exposing himself and ruining his mission because of his greed.

Right then, a familiar mischievous voice rang in his mind, "Ahem, little master, you must get those treasures!"

Ace’s expression instantly changed when he recognized Pixy’s greedy voice; the excitement vanished, replaced by vigilance.

Because ever since Pixy opened her mouth, the danger level would be ridiculous, especially after his last experience in the Undead Cradle.

Moreover, she had disappeared after he obtained the sealed Undead Boundary within the Undead Cradle, and now that she appeared again, it meant trouble, despite knowing the importance of those opportunities.

But Ace didn’t understand her strange obsession with these peculiar treasures, especially the treasures marked with fate. It was almost like those opportunities and Pixy’s obsession were aligned.

Yet, he couldn’t ignore the fact that every time she became interested in something, extreme danger followed.

Ace silently replied in a cold tone, "Why do you need them now? Last time I checked, they are important to me, not you, right?"

Pixy answered without hesitation, "Hehe, first of all because they’re interesting treasures! Second, think about it: if you need them, I need them too, right? So, what’s the difference?"

Ace’s mouth twitched. "That isn’t an explanation!"

Pixy retorted, "Well, there’s an explanation: you are a thief, so act like one! Treasures are meant to be stolen by thieves!"

Ace remained silent while secretly cursing in his mind, ’What kind of damning explanation is this!?’

For some reason, he suddenly felt that Pixy’s disappearance hadn’t changed her personality at all, and if anything, she had become worse.

Ace didn’t respond immediately as his attention returned to the Live Fate Map, and his eyes became cold and calculating.

’Three black fate points. One treasure with black-colored danger. One fortuitous opportunity, and the Absolute Opportunity...’ He quietly clenched his fists. ’This place is no doubt terrifyingly dangerous. But...’

A faint smile appeared beneath Kharon’s disguise as he thought, ’Dangerous doesn’t mean impossible...’

He replied to Pixy in a cold yet commanding tone, "I’ll try my best, but this time you have to tell me why you want all these treasures! And don’t try to play me; I know you’re up to something!"

On the other side, far above the Evernight Regal Void, Lord Seeker’s countless golden eyes remained fixed upon the enormous Realmbreaker Conquest Ark.

The Evernight Devil King stood beside him, and the Evernight Demon King and Evernight Fiend King also remained nearby.

Lord Seeker smiled, "Well then. Let’s not delay anymore!"

The next instant, his enormous body slowly shifted, and the countless golden-black runes covering it began to move as his form gradually collapsed inward.

Thereafter, the arms disappeared, the countless eyes vanished, and the immense body formed from the realm core of the Sanctuary slowly transformed.

’HUM!’

Dark golden light spread across the isolated space, and when it faded, Lord Seeker was no longer an enormous ancient spirit. Instead, he had transformed into a colossal golden-black eye!

The eye was enormous, its surface covered in countless tiny golden runes, and within the dark pupil, countless smaller eyes rotated slowly.

Right at that moment, the giant eye opened...

’BOOM!’

The isolated space trembled, and the entire Realmbreaker Conquest Ark was reflected inside its pupil!
