The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4447

It was too sudden, and Jared had not anticipated that this old man would suddenly make a move. For a moment, he couldn't react.

Surprisingly, it was the jade pendant worn by Catalina that suddenly emitted a burst of red light, causing the old man to momentarily falter.

Only then did Jared and Catalina react. They quickly retreated to the fourth floor.

“Mr. Chance, what's wrong?” Cyanna quickly inquired after seeing Jared and Catalina return hastily after they had just left and noticing their off-color complexions.

“A hunchbacked old man is upstairs. As soon as we got there, he suddenly attacked us!”

Catalina spoke out in considerable frustration.

“Hunchbacked old man?” Coall was utterly bewildered.

“That guy, true to his Veil Dragon lineage, really knows how to disguise himself. I'd bet even his appearance is a facade!” Jared exclaimed.

“Mr. Chance, can you confirm that guy is also a Draconian?” asked Cyanna.

Jared nodded and said, “Yes. I investigated the moment I arrived on the fifth floor, but I just didn't expect him to launch a surprise attack.”

“My life-saving token... Poor thing...”

Catalina held her broken jade pendant, her expression filled with sorrow.

Had it not been for the sudden activation of the life-saving token earlier, they both would have fallen victim to that old man's malicious intent.

“Ms. Lantz, I'm sorry...” Jared said apologetically.

After all, Catalina's jade pendant saved him just a moment ago.

“Forget it. It didn't only save you. This jade pendant was originally meant to save my life. If worst comes to worst, I can just ask my master to give me another one when I get back. What do we do next? I guess we can't go any further, right?” Catalina asked.

“I have to go back. I'll try to see if I can get Ms. Cyanna and Coall out of here,” Jared said.

Upon hearing that, Coall and Cyanna were instantly thrilled. “Many thanks, Mr. Chance...”

If they could leave that tower, they would finally be free, no longer trapped there.

“So, who exactly was the previous person held captive here?” Cyanna curiously asked.

Coall shook his head, saying, “I'm not entirely sure. After all, I've never gotten close to those things before.”

Jared slowly made his way toward the magical items. After that, he activated his Nethersky Eye.

Under the scrutiny of Nethersky Eye, these so-called magical items lost all their luster, proving they were not magical items at all.

“Is all of this really just a deception?”

Jared's brows furrowed slightly before he reached out to grasp a magical item.

“Don't...”

Observing the situation, Catalina, who was standing nearby, stepped forward and grabbed hold of Jared, attempting to stop him.

However, just as she grabbed hold of Jared, he had already seized the magical items.
