Chapter 2 Treasure-Hunting Compass


    Once Zachary had got his bearings and understood what the Olden World and the Supernal Continent


    were, he immediately looked at thepass he was holding, and mumbled to himself, "This Treasure-


    hunting Compass is more miraculous that I thought it was. It could take my soul to another time and


    space..."


    The biggest technologypany in the world had invented the Treasure-hunting Compass that


    Zachary had in his hand.


    The most powerful function of the Treasure-hunting Compass was creating a second world in which


    adventurers could search for treasures.


    Plus, its assisting system could also release quests on its own. Whoever sessfullypleted them


    would be awarded substantially. Those who were lucky could be millionaires in a matter of days.


    As a result, countless adventurers loved, and even worshiped the assisting system.


    Since the Treasure-hunting Compass could not only create a second world, but also connect the real


    world with it, any item or creature could travel between those two worlds, seamlessly. Undeniably, that


    was a miracle!


    Furthermore, thepany gathered a hundred volunteers and nned to observe them while they


    regrly handled the Treasure-hunting Compass. That way, they would be able to fix bugs, if there


    were any, and ensure that it would not cause any health issues to the people using them. Zachary was


    one such volunteer.


    To his surprise, the Treasure-hunting Compass had brought him to an entirely new world—one that


    was totally different from his.


    At that moment, Zachary''s eyes were glued to the crescent-shaped "Start" button. Moments ago, he


    had pressed that button, and its activated system had teleported him to the unknown world he found


    himself in at that moment. Therefore, he thought that if he were to press it again, he might be


    teleported back to the world he belonged to. Of course, there were also chances that he might find


    himself somewhere else.


    Anyhow, Zachary pressed the button once again, hoping to get back to his familiar surroundings. No


    sooner had he done it than a faint blue light shed from the device and enveloped his entire body. The


    next moment, before he could blink an eye, his body transformed into a tiny blue dot and vanished.


    When Zachary opened his eyes again, he found that he was in a mysterious, actually, a three-


    dimensional virtual space. He immediately held his right hand over his eyes to protect them from the


    brilliantwork of different hued lights that were shing back and forth.


    All of a sudden, a soothing, angel-like voice filled the space saying, "Wee to the Treasure-hunting


    System. I''m your guide, Mimi."


    "So, is this the Treasure-hunting System? I''m inside..." Zachary was surprised. After he had inspected


    his body, he was sure that it had entered the system. Therefore, it could only imply that the


    teleportation happened because of system failure.


    "Ny percent of the Treasure-hunting System is severely damaged. However, self-recovery will


    happen, but it will take a long time. Therefore, as of now, it can only support the most basic functions..."


    It was just as Zachary had expected! There was something wrong with the Treasure-Hunting System.


    "Okay, I get it. Even though it''s damaged, why did it teleport me to this space?" Zachary grumbled. In


    order for him to get back to his original world, he had to get the Treasure-Hunting Compass fixed first.


    Worried, he asked, "Mimi, how long does it take to fix the system?"


    "Since the damage is too severe, I cannot estimate urately how much time self-recovery will take,"


    Mimi replied.


    Just as Zachary was about to ask more questions, the entire sky glistered with a bright yellow light, and


    Mimi reported in a girlish tone, "The Treasure-hunting System has found a new world—the Olden


    World... Supernal Continent... Scanning...


    Map loading...


    Data loading...


    Historical records loading...


    Loadingplete!"


    "Now, the Treasure-hunting System can directly load information about the world it has found!" Zachary


    could not believe what he had just heard.


    As he was wondering, Mimi said, "Please enter your name!"


    "Zachary Zi," Zachary quickly answered, snapping back to reality.


    "Age!"


    "I should be about... eighteen years old!"


    "Gender!"


    "Male."


    "Height!"


    "Weight!"


    "Personality!" "Hobby!"


    After fifteen minutes or so, Zachary could not help butin, "Mimi, are you doing a background


    check? That''s more than enough!"


    Suddenly, Mimi was silent. It seemed that Zachary''sining had caused her to keep quiet.


    However, now that Mimi had not said anything for some time, Zachary was beginning to get worried.


    "Alright, go ahead and ask!" He said so, because he felt that Mimi was angry with him. ''Even a virtual


    character has her temperament, though I''ve never heard about that!'' Zachary thought to himself.


    "Are you a homosexual?" Soon, Mimi asked another annoying question.


    All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    Zachary could not help rolling his eyes at her. "What kind of a system is this? Mimi, you''re like a big-


    mouthed gossip!"


    Suddenly, a huge screen appeared in front of his eyes, and a figure approximately his size, appeared


    on the screen. Following that, several beams of red light shed on his body.


    "Body inspectionpleted!" It was Mimi speaking again.


    Meanwhile, some data was disyed on the virtual screen that was near the figure.


    The concludingment at the end read, "You''re the weakest of the weakest in the Supernal


    Continent. You won''t be able to even beat an ant there!"


    "What kind of an assessment is that?" Zachary blurted out angrily, and cursed the system.


    Just as he was getting impatient and annoyed, the entire surroundings were filled with a shing red


    light, which seemed to be warning him.


    "Congrattions! Even though physically and mentally you''re weaker than the weakest of the Supernal


    Continent, you''re blessed with double martial speed, which is rare—only one in a thousand has that!"


    Mimi eximed, excitedly.


    "What are you saying? I don''t understand any of that," Zachary pouted, getting confused once again.


    "The world you''re currently in is called the Olden World, and you are in the Supernal Continent. The


    warrior''s career is the most popr in this world. There are eight levels associated with it, which are:


    the Mortal Level, the Earth Level, the Heaven Level, the King Level, the Imperial Level, the Sage Level,


    the Holy Level, and the Divine Level. Also, before bing a warrior, one has to go through the


    Foundation Establishment, so in total, there are nine stages. However, in order to be a warrior,


    one has to at least own the original martial speed."
