Chapter 140 - 140 Preston Mountains’ Double Summit

140 Preston Mountains’ Double Summit

After that incident.

It was obvious that the situation had gone out of control.

The local special operations team suffered heavy losses.

Otherwise, how could the news have leaked out and caused such a huge commotion in the city? If ordinary people knew about it, it would cause widespread Panic. Even the military was forced to send people to maintain stability.

!!

There were some things that ordinary people should not know.

If they knew, they would not be of any help. Instead, they would create panic and cause people to feel uneasy, affecting the entire city.

Hence, the existence of the special operations team was to deal with these matters and protect the cities they were in.

Steve Xavier was on the verge of death, and Sebastian Wood was also seriously injured.

The appearance of the ancient tomb in the Preston mountains, the accompanying burial pit, and the spiritual stones would definitely attract all the martial artists in Preston.

The warriors were like cats that had smelled blood when it came to spiritual stones and spiritual herbs. It was impossible for them not to be tempted, and they would definitely swarm over.

Now that Steve had been treated and was in Braydon’s hands, his life was saved, but he had many fractures in his body.

Both his internal and external injuries were extremely serious!

“Take that half-spiritual herb from your Preston team and give it to Steve.”

Braydon turned around, took his cloak, and strode out of the door with the Northern King sword hanging at his waist. He planned to personally go to the Preston mountains to deal with this matter.

Now that Steve was injured to this extent, and Sebastian had lost his combat ability, the Preston team had lost a lot of power, so the situation at the Preston mountains was probably out of control.

Braydon was in Preston, and he could not tolerate any martial artists causing trouble.

Logan Hall stayed behind to take care of Steve and Sebastian and sent them back to the base of the Preston team.

Westley Hader followed Braydon indifferently. Since they had met, he would not sit back and do nothing.

Tristan Yandell loved liveliness the most, and he was bored out of his mind in the capital.

The three of them entered the Preston mountains together.

However, in the boundless mountain range, one could often hear the howls of wolves, as well as see the mineral water bottles and sanitary towels that were thrown down by the surrounding mountains and forests. They were all rubbish left behind by the tourist groups.

In the forest, there were shadows flashing by.

There were many warrior-level martial artists!

At the warrior level, one could run ten meters per second, six hundred meters per minute, and six kilometers in ten minutes. They were known as the scud that could travel sixty kilometers per hour.

At the warlord level, their speed would double, reaching twenty miles per second and one hundred twenty kilometers per hour. They would be faster than cars on the highway.

This was the strength of a martial artist. Ordinary people simply could not compare with them.

In this forest, Joseph Thomas rushed in head on.

Even he had received news that an ancient tomb had appeared in Preston, and there were spiritual stones in the accompanying pit.

Anyone with a brain would know that the tomb owner must have been a martial artist when he was alive, and it was unknown how strong he was.

It was this unknown element that had attracted a large number of martial artists to explore it.

If the owner of the tomb was not a warrior, where could he get spiritual stones to be buried with the tomb?

In ancient times, powerful warriors all had ancient martial arts cultivation methods, including martial arts techniques, secret skills, forbidden skills, and so on.

These were all things that modern martial artists desired the most.

If one were to go to the streets and randomly select two warriors, the martial arts that they practiced would not be complete.

Or it was a castrated version that an old senior had managed to complete using an incomplete technique.

Under all sorts of restrictions, the progress of a martial artist’s strength was slow. They were limited by external conditions such as martial arts techniques and the lack of spiritual stones.

Therefore, when warriors heard that there was a complete martial arts technique or a spiritual stone, they would gather like crazy.

Joseph was a simple-minded man who was just here to join in on the fun.

The ancient tomb that was discovered the day before yesterday had probably attracted warriors from the surrounding cities over since it had been two days.

Beside Joseph was an old man. It was the warrior-level Stefan Thomas!

“Joseph, don’t run around. Follow me!” Stefan’s eyes were solemn. He had detected no less than thirty martial artists along the way.

Many of them were warrior-level!

If there was a conflict, the two of them would be nothing in their eyes.

“Grandpa,” Joseph said in a low voice, “the matter of the ancient tomb at the Preston mountains is getting out of hand. Isn’t the Preston team going to do something about it?”

“I’m afraid even Steve Xavier can’t handle so many warriors. I received news two hours ago that he has been seriously injured. That’s why these warriors are so reckless and don’t even bother to cover their tracks.”

Stefan glanced into the distance and saw three other figures flashing by at an extremely fast speed. More martial artists!

If Steve was here, these martial artists would not dare to be so reckless and increase their speed to show their strength.

Showing off in front of the special operations team meant they were tired of living!

“Steve is seriously injured? This means that Preston team is without a leader. Wouldn’t things fall into chaos here?” Joseph said.

“That’s why I’m asking you to follow me closely. Without the Preston team’s interference, there will definitely be chaos when martial artists from all over the world gather!” Stefan brought his grandson deeper and deeper into the Preston mountains.

However, above them, there were three figures, stepping on green leaves and flying through the air.

The three figures were all extraordinary.

“Brother Braydon, take me with you!” Joseph looked up in surprise.

“What?”

...

Westley’s hearing was sharp, and he immediately noticed the two people under the tree. He stopped and placed his left hand behind his back, not moving an inch from the leaves.

“Your Excellency, Northern King!” Stefan did not dare to be careless.

“Old man, you’re being too polite!” Braydon quickly caught Stefan by the arm.

This old man was Braydon’s grandfather’s sworn brother, so Braydon did not dare to accept his bow.

Joseph looked at Tristan and asked in a low voice, “Brother Braydon, who are these two?”

Stefan looked over and his expression suddenly changed!

The black-clothed young man on the left was wearing a golden flying fish robe, and his identity was obvious. He was the current governor, Westley Hader.

The other young man had a silver-threaded flying fish pattern on his clothes. He was definitely one of the two deputy governors.

“I, Stefan Thomas of the Thomas family, pay my respects to the two Lord Governors!” Stefan bowed in fear.

Westley chuckled, while Tristan appeared nonchalant.

“Brother Braydon, are you here for the ancient tomb?” Joseph was curious.

...

“What else did you think he’s here for?” Tristan stretched his waist lazily and brought the two of them along.

Stefan’s heart was pounding with fear along the way. He was afraid of the governor, Westley Hader, and he knew that he was a ruthless man.

Who would have thought that the gathering of martial artists in the Preston mountains would attract the governor?

If everyone knew that Westley was here, they would have fled in fear.

At the foot of a small mountain, many warriors were eyeing the stone gate that was exposed on the east side of the mountain.

The green stone door was two meters tall, and there were exquisite patterns and ancient characters carved on it.

Due to the heavy rain the day before, the tomb door buried in the soil was exposed and was later discovered by the geological survey team.

The stone door had already been opened, and Luca of the Preston team was standing guard.

Warriors from all over the world were hiding in the forest, watching coldly.

It was already the third day since the ancient tomb was discovered.

Martial artists came here for spiritual stones and the martial arts techniques of the tomb owner.

They had had enough!

Everyone had seen Steve break in and come out with serious injuries. He was on the verge of death when he was sent away.

The leader of the Preston team had almost died in battle, which was the greatest shock to all the unruly martial artists.

Finally, someone could not hold back anymore.

A bald warrior jumped out of the tree with a fierce look in his eyes and ran straight for the tomb door. He was going to force his way in.

“When the Preston team is working, whoever dares to cross the line will be killed without mercy!”

Luca held his cold sword and led eight members to guard the entrance of the tomb.
