Chapter 919 The Martial Fire Tomb

Everyone knew that the journey to the Martial Fire Tomb would be full of risks. Those Imperial Level warriors who lacked physical strength and energy could put the entire team at a disadvantage. But since Queenie and the others weren't that gullible and came from powerful clans, their respective backgrounds paved the way for them to take part in the exploration. These were reasons enough for other team members to treat them harshly and throw offensive remarks toward them.

Queenie and the others heard all their insults, and although their faces didn't show any hint of displeasure, they still felt upset because some were half-truths. 'They are right. We are too lame to be of any help to the team,' they thought to themselves.

"Don't mind them. As long as you follow my every word, I promise that each one of you will return from this exploration fully loaded with treasures," Zachary assured his team members as he sneered at those bullying them.

"Okay boss, we'll be counting on your help so we can prove them wrong with their criticisms against our team," Nelson uttered with conviction.

Zachary grinned back readily.

"May I have your attention, please. Starting today, we are going to teach you some arrays," Katrina announced. Afterward, she and the other two Holy Level warriors presented the different offensive and defensive arrays the team might have to use when dealing with various emergencies.

After a day of familiarization, the members assembled into groups of five and practiced what they had learned separately.

Although the others treated Zachary's team as a mere showpiece with little use, he still urged his team members to familiarize themselves with all the arrays. He further pushed them to become more proficient than the other teams because he knew that in this expedition relying on one's strength alone would never be enough. He was fully aware of the importance of teamwork within his group during this risky venture.

Time passed by quickly, and after two days of training, the members of all three teams had become acquainted with the arrays taught to them. They could now handle many unexpected situations after mastering their lessons so fast, mostly since they were the Enigmatic Kingdom's chosen elite warriors.

A couple more days later, Jace arrived together with three Sage Level warriors and six Imperial Level warriors at the premium stage, as well as Pollard and Po

r he emerged from the tent, Zachary left the camp right away. He took out of his pocket the Five-God Compass that he recently got. This compass could point its handler to the Five-God Tombs and the Five-God Treasures' location as well. He never had the chance to try it before, but now it had finally come in handy.

"But how do I use this thing?" Zachary groaned under his breath as he carefully studied the Five-God Compass in his hand.

The compass had three layers of rings, and each ring had different symbols on it. Three silver needles rotated ceaselessly on the surface and between the compass' gaps, stretching across the three ring layers, making it appear very complicated.

Since he did not know how to use it, Zachary used his martial energy, trying to make the compass work. Soon, the three rings circulated irregularly, and the hands on the surface of the compass shook nonstop.

Not long after, the three rings stopped moving. He noticed that the three needles had overlapped in a vertical line, pointing at the three ring layers' symbolic text.

Zachary squinted as he took a closer look and discovered that the innermost ring was pointing at a symbol that represented time. The symbol on the middle layer appeared like lake waves and should represent a body of water. The outermost layer's symbol looked like a tree.

'Does this mean that the Martial Fire Tomb's location is in an area with water and a tree standing nearby? But what does the time symbol mean?' Zachary immediately pondered. Since the symbols on the compass were a little hypothetical, he decided to turn to Mimi for help.
