However, something weird stood out to them.
Didn't he stalk Willow to Netherworld? Why is he now back with her in his arms? More importantly, why does she
look lifeless?
Ares hastily ran up and asked, “Great Marshal, what happened? How did Willow die?”
Zeke sighed before recounting the incident and his speculations to everyone.
Silence immediately hung in the air.
After a long while, Ares spoke up. “Willow must have been manipulated by negative energy. I knew she couldn't
have betrayed our country when she was Eurasia's first female Archduke.”
Nameless chimed in, “Most of the other fighters in Netherworld must also be under their manipulation. That means
if we can find a technique to dispel the negative energy, we can bring them back to their senses! It wouldn't be long
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbefore we destroyed Netherworld!”
Zeke nodded in agreement.
A technique to dispel negative energy was just the thing he had been researching on.
Regrettably, he had not gotten any success as he did not know enough about Netherworld.
“Sole Wolf, pass my message to the president,” Zeke commanded. “I strongly suggest that Eurasia start a research
team to look into negative energy and come up with techniques to dispel it. If we learn even just one technique, it'd
be beneficial to Eurasia.”
Sole Wolf nodded. “Understood. I'll let the president know right now.”
“Let's take a rest today,” Zeke said. “We'll continue our search for Summerbank tomorrow.”
Just then, Alfred piped up, “I managed to contact Azure Dragon earlier. Even with six hundred warriors, they have
yet to find any clues about Summerbank. Therefore, I don't think we should continue with the search blindly. If we
do, all our efforts will only be for naught. Why don't we wait for Azure Dragon to gather some clues before moving
forward? At least we will have something to lead us.”
“Willow has already given me a clue to its location. I know where it is,” Zeke answered calmly. “This time, we must
succeed.”
Upon hearing that, everyone cheered, happy that their search would be a lot easier now that they had a clue.
While the others retired for the day, Zeke made his way to Lacey.
After being nourished by spiritual energy, Lacey looked a lot rosier and healthier.
Her vital signs were stabler, but the negative energy inside her seemed to have also gotten stronger.
No mortal could withstand the effects of negative energy, and if Zeke did not dispel it soon, Lacey might never
wake up again.
Zeke ran his fingers through Lacey's hair and mumbled, “Lacey, don't worry. I'll cure you no matter what it takes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven if it means I have to sacrifice myself along with Netherworld, I'll make sure to rescue our dear Missy. When
this is all over, I promise we'll be together forever.”
The night was long, yet Zeke did not sleep a wink.
Now that he had attained the Ultimate Class, the limits of his physical body had long surpassed those of ordinary
folks.
Even if he stayed awake for up to half a month, it would not affect him much.
Everyone was up bright and early the next day, ready to set off on their search for Summerbank.
Being the Ultimate and King Class warriors they were, Zeke, Alfred, and Ares could move at almost the speed of
sound.
However, the rest of the team struggled to keep up as their life forces were still greatly damaged.
Thankfully, Zeke constantly released his energy along the way to help them, thus ensuring they would not be left
too far behind.
By noon, the team arrived at Mount Final.
Looking down at the Carter sect, everyone felt a wave of emotions wash over them.
It was not that long ago when the Four Hidden Sects were still in power and respected by all in Eurasia.
