Chapter 408 Rare Treasures
“Do we go in now?”
“Are we going to admit defeat?”
“The Eldorian Scroll fragment is inside! We can’t just give up so easily, can we?”
The people were having a heated discussion. They did not want to lose out on the opportunity
as well.
They were stuck in a dilemma. Going in would be dangerous, but if they were to leave now, all their efforts would be wasted.
However, they were afraid of provoking Capsian if they were to follow him inside.
Nob*dy wanted to give up or act rashly.
“Mr. Xenos, what should we do next?” Horace went to Nixon’s side and asked.
Even though he knew that Nixon was not fond of him, he had to obey Nixon’s orders as he was the leader of this operation.
As long as Nixon had not given any instructions, Horace would not dare to make any decisions
on his own.
“Let’s go! We’ll follow them inside. We’ve already lost thousands of our men.
“If we return without the Eldorian Scroll fragment, the chairman won’t let us go!” Nixon said through gritted teeth.
They did not gain anything from this trip to Southlake City. Instead, they lost a thousand of their expert martial artists.
Even Horace lost one of his arms. He had even gotten internal injuries as well.
If they failed to bring the Eldorian Scroll fragment back, not only would Nixon be dismayed, but they would also have to face punishment from the chairman upon their return to Dhord City.
“Let’s go!” Horace gestured for the men to follow him.
The remaining three to four thousand men of the TMAA entered the tomb.
The members of Shadow Gate began getting anxious when they saw the people of the TMAA making a move.
“Mr. Shane, let us go as well!”
“The people of the TMAA have already gone inside. If we go in any later, the Eldorian Scroll

Nob*dy knew the exact situation within the tomb, but they could not just give up like this. “Let’s go!” Gilbert said after making up his mind.
When the expert martial artists saw the two forces making a move, they felt the need to follow
suit.
One after another, the people entered the tomb.
Everyone had come here for the purpose of obtaining the Eldorian Scroll fragment.
Jyn remained standing where she was.
The entire time, Caspian never even looked at her once. This made her feel dejected.
“Ms. Morrison, we…” Ginger asked in an anxious tone.
Those from the Morrison family were looking somber.
They had come for the Eldorian Scroll fragment, but their plan seemed to have been messed up because their leader only had her eyes on Caspian.
If this continued, it would not be possible for them to obtain the Eldorian Scroll fragment.
When the time came, they would have to be punished.
Jyn managed to recompose herself very quickly. Her chest rose and fell. With resolution, she said, “Let’s go!”
With that, the people from the Morrison family also entered the tomb..
Mount Evercloud became empty in an instant.
Only corpses and rivers of flowing blood remained.
Suddenly, a low rumble could be heard from a distance.
Hundreds of SUVS appeared at the foot of Mount Evercloud.
Many armed soldiers alighted from the SUVs.
These soldiers had been through hundreds of battles and rigorous training.
Caspian had mobilized a reinforcement corps to be stationed near the Stewart family estate. Their objective was to secure the Eldorian Scroll fragment.
Even though their numbers were just shy of 10,000, their combat skills were very strong.
A composed man alighted from the leading car.

He had a look of determination on his face.
He was John Anderson, the senior general of South Aridlands.
He was also Caspian’s former subordinate.
In order for this operation to be smooth, John was personally leading the team.
“Have this place cleaned up,” John ordered. “When we enter the tomb, kill everyone except Caspian and our men!”
“Yes, sir!”
Thousands of soldiers were ready.
John glanced at the tomb.
The Eldorian Scroll fragment must not fall into the hands of evil.
Inside the tomb, Caspian and the others had been walking on a very long stretch of narrow path before they had a sudden realization.
The scene before them was truly astonishing.
There was a very wide valley.
There was plenty of light here. It looked like paradise.
The place looked nothing like a tomb. There was lush green grass on the ground with many animals running around.
How could there be such a tomb?
“Mr. Stewart Senior, are you sure that this is a tomb and not a resort?” Caspian asked Xandros, looking mildly confused.
Xandros smiled, feeling delighted. He had guessed that Caspian and the others would be surprised.
“The predecessors of the Stewart family chose this place specifically when they were looking for a burial site. This valley is well hidden behind Mount Evercloud,” Xandros explained.
“However, you mustn’t run around as you wish. There are a lot of traps in here,” he continued. The people were shocked. It went without saying that they would not dare to run around. Having arrived at a place like this, everyone had become very energetic.
“There’s no need for you to be afraid. Just follow me and you’ll be fine,” Xandros said with a
smile.

“Mr Stewart Senior, you’d better take extra care so that we won’t be harmed,” Caspian said as he looked at Xandros.
Caspian had been deceived by this old man several times.
Caspian was not even sure whether to believe him or not.
Did he have a map of this tomb? Xandros was already so old. Would he be able to remember the structures inside?
“You little punk. I was just messing with you that time. I still expect you to protect the Eldorian Scroll fragment!” Xandros said irritably.
Come on, now!” he continued.
Xandros led the way as Caspian and the others followed closely behind.
Nixon and the others were also following behind. They had seen the valley as well.
“How could this be?”
When they saw the scenery inside, they were all blown away as well.
It turned out that there was another pot of gold within the tomb!
“Mr. Xenos, it seems like Caspian and the others have just passed by this area. Should we catch
up to them?” Horace asked cautiously as he kept his eyes on the ground.
“I didn’t expect this place to be like a paradise! This is really surprising!” Nixon was wonderstruck.
“Mr. Xenos!” Horace urged.
“What’s with the rush? Let’s just wait for the people from Shadow Gate to arrive first. If we bump into Caspian now, we’ll only be killed!” Nixon said coldly.
Horace was silent instantly.
A few minutes had passed when a group of people appeared. They were the people from Shadow Gate.
Gilbert laughed.
“You’re pretty fast, Nixon!” Gilbert teased.
“Let’s hurry inside. Caspian and the others have already gone in. If we delay any longer, we won’t be able to obtain anything,” Nixon said.
“That’s right. There’s no time to lose. Let’s hurry and catch up with them,” Gilbert said with a

The others followed suit.
Behind them were thousands of expert martial artists.
Jyn and her team were also following behind.
On the other hand, Caspian and his men had entered the valley and reached a dense forest.
Colossal trees towered over them.
“Wow! That’s such a huge Cranesbill!”
“There’s so much saffron!!
