Chapter 970
Dustin and the rest of them set out for the Black Forest early the next morning.
Due to the terrible road conditions, driving was not an option. They could only walk there.
Many martial artists had entered the forest since the day before. They were there to try
their luck.
However, the Black Forest was so huge that they lost all sense of direction when they
entered. Most of them just walked around aimlessly, so it was difficult for them to find the
treasure.
About half an hour later, Dustin and the group finally got to the entrance of the Black Forest. They could see many people making their way in, one after another.
“Ms. Hoyles, do you know where the tomb is located?” Dustin asked.
“Well, I have no information about that yet.”
Emily continued dejectedly, “Everyone is just trying their luck now. Whoever finds the treasure first is the lucky one.”
Though it was a wild goose chase, they had no other choice.
Their only advantage was that they were locals. Hence, they were more familiar with the
Black Forest, and it would save them more time.
“The Black Forest is huge. How will anyone ever find anything just based on luck?” Dustin
shook his head.
“Do you have any better ideas?” Emily asked tentatively.
“Honestly, I have an inside man in the Jade Maiden Sisterhood. If you trust me, Ms. Hoyles,
let me lead the way,” Dustin said.
“You have an inside man? That’s amazing!” Emily was delighted.
What a surprise! It turned out that Dustin was their lucky star!
“Hey, are you bragging?” Nathan looked at him skeptically.
“It’s up to you whether or not to trust me.” Dustin didn’t explain further and walked to the
front to lead the rest.
1/3
The Jade Maiden Sisterhood had entered the Black Forest an hour before they did.
As agreed upon, Nikki would leave some special markings along the way. All they had to do was follow the markings, and they could find the tomb.
“Come on, everyone, follow tight.”
Emily gestured to those behind her to keep up.
“Damn it! What’s so great about him?
“Ultimately, they’d still rely on me for protection once they entered the Black Forest!”
Nathan spat angrily on the ground as he watched Dustin walking in front.
