Chapter 281 Rebeccas Beast (1/2)

”I have my ways,” Zachary said with a mysterious smile.

”Could you please not be this secretive all the time? Anyway, why are you always wearing a hat? Is there anything embarrassing that you want to hide?” Queenie asked as she glared at him heatedly. It was annoying how he always showed up in a hat.

”I think my face looks a little worse for wear. I'm afraid that it will frighten others!” Zachary answered. He sounded too innocent and well-meaning to be believable.

”Humph!” Queenie breathed harshly like she had given up arguing with him. Then all of a sudden, she turned her hand and stretched it towards his hat.

Despite her agility, Zachary realized her plan. Light flashed across his eyes and he disappeared from their sight.

”Why are you escaping? You won't die just because I see your face!” Queenie complained angrily. She whirled around as if she was trying to figure out where he was.

”If you keep doing this, I won't take you to look for the natural energy fire,” Zachary said as he re-appeared.

”That's enough, Queenie,” Rebecca chipped in to ease the tension.

”Well, I will take off your hat sooner or later,” Queenie pouted. Zachary nodded at this. He believed her because from what he could tell, she was someone who became more eager to do something when it was harder to accomplish.

With a flourish, he led the two girls into the Demonic Forest.

According to the data, the Demonic Flower Beast lived underground with the nutrients from plants and soils as nourishment. It was a mild martial beast in nature, which was uncommon among martial beasts. Of course, the fact it was mild didn't mean it was weak. On the contrary, as a kind of elite martial beast, the Demonic Flower Beast was more powerful than ordinary martial beasts.

There was still the danger that even if they found the Demonic Flower Beast, they could still fail to lure it out. If they could not lure it out, they could not get the natural energy fire.

Zachary searched for the location of the Demonic Flower Beast earnestly and with laser-like focus. He didn't bother to worry about the two girls since they were at the premium stage of King Level, and Queenie was even close to the Imperial Level.

It was dangerous in the Demonic Forest, so they were wary, but they didn't encounter any big trouble. They easily overcame the troubles that came their way.

Six hours later, Zachary finally found a curious area. He knelt to touch the dried plants and observed the texture of the soil. It was obviously different from the neighboring areas.
