Chapter 490 Double Champions

Mimi's sweet voice rang out as Zachary entered the system.

"Congratulations! You have completed the main quest of 'Double Champions, ' and now you will get your rewards. The formula of a Divine Level treasure, the Wooden Spiritual Wand..."

As Mimi spoke, a sealed golden scroll appeared in midair in front of Zachary. He reached out to take it. He unrolled the scroll and found the formula for forging the Wooden Spiritual Wand, including the materials needed and the specific forging process. He studied the scroll. Of course, since this was for a Divine Level treasure, all the materials listed were rare, expensive, or otherwise difficult to obtain. Even the lowest-level materials could only be attained by a warrior at the premium stage of the Imperial Level. He noted with interest that the forging method used was almost completely different from the ones used to forge ordinary weapons.

"Mimi, is this Wooden Spiritual Wand very powerful?" Zachary asked as he rolled up the scroll and put it away for safekeeping.

"It's said that this Wooden Spiritual Wand is one of the most powerful weapons possessed by the God of Wood, one of the Five Gods. The wand has the special ability of controlling the wooden spiritual power," Mimi replied.

"What is the wooden spiritual power?" Zachary asked again.

"All the plants which exist in the world contain the wooden spiritual power," Mimi explained.

"If I understand you correctly, does that mean the Wooden Spiritual Wand can be used to control plants? It sounds very similar to Elfin, the treasure beast of Rebecca, but I'm sure it must be much stronger than Elfin," Zachary mused, looking thoughtful.

Mimi continued, "In addition, the Wooden Spiritual Wand can absorb the life energy of plants, allowing its owner to extend their own life. That's one of the reasons why the Wooden Spiritual Wand is so precious and sought after by warriors all over the Supernal Continent—it is said to be a way to achieve immortality. But the wand was destroyed by a warrior five hundred years ago."

"Destroyed? Why would that warrior do such a thing? What advantage could there be in destroying such a precious Divine Level treasure?" Zachary was deeply distressed at the idea of such malicious destructiveness.

"Because there is one more power the Wooden Spiritual Wand possesses: it is the key to open the tomb of the God of Wood. A person who successfully forges the Wooden Spiritual Wand would have not only the power of the wand itself, but also be able to enter the tomb of the God of Wood, and take ownership of whatever valuable treasures are within."

"I see. Then, since the Lord has given me the formula instead of an actual Wooden Spiritual Wand, then I assume it is very difficult to follow the forging formula. Perhaps even impossible. The Lord can be mean," said Zachary, pursing h

room, intending to continue his study of his self-made weapon.

In the blink of an eye, darkness blanketed the forest of Shura College as night fell over the continent.

A beautiful woman was rushing through the forest, moving at a very fast speed. Eventually, she stopped and looked around.

"Strange. He should be here by now," she said to herself. That beautiful woman was Polly. Polly walked around, keeping a sharp eye on her surroundings. There was no one there. She mused, "Is he playing a trick on me? In fact, I don't have to care about his words at all. But I wonder if he ever really intended to help me or not..."

She was clearly in a complicated mood.

"Hey, don't talk about me behind my back," said a voice behind her.

Polly was startled, but recovered quickly. She turned. Zachary stood behind her. He had clearly heard what she said, so she blushed. She snapped, "Don't you know it's a bad manner to eavesdrop?"

"It's not my fault. You spoke so loudly that I couldn't help but overhear," Zachary said with a shrug.

"Maybe I'd better go," Polly said irritably. She tried to hide her embarrassment. Whenever she saw Zachary, she found herself recalling what had happened between them, and she decided that she had made a mistake coming here. It was time to leave.

Polly started walking, but Zachary grabbed her arm.

"What are you afraid of? Do you think I'll eat you up?" Zachary said lightly. He smiled at her.

"Let go of me!" Polly said, trying to pull her arm free. She rolled her eyes at him. She hadn't expected him to dare stop her.

"Or else what? You'll kill me? You've already had your chance, so I don't think you'll go through with it this time," Zachary teased. He understood that she was trying to deceive herself.

"You..." Polly trailed off. She felt that he knew what she was thinking, and she blushed again, feeling exposed and uncertain.
