    Chapter 2215 Eighteen Pirs


    Jared looked at Emiliano and smiled. “Well, I have you, Mr. Fairchild of Stormwind Sect, to thank for


    this. Otherwise, I wouldn''t have broken the arcane array so quickly.”


    Needless to say, Emiliano was dumbfounded. “Me? Why would you thank me?”


    Luol and the others, too, didn''t understand what Jared meant. After all, why would the deactivation of


    the arcane array have anything to do with Stormwind Sect?


    “Of course I have to thank you! If you hadn''t instructed your subordinates to force the activation of the


    Death Trap Formation, thereby draining its energy, I wouldn''t have broken it so swiftly!” Jared


    eximed with a slightly smug grin. “Even though there was a Death Trap Formation within the arcane


    array, its power had weakened steadily over the years. Then, you got your men to break it and trigger


    the Death Trap Formation, which exhausted whatever remaining energy it had! That made my work so


    much easier, and best of all, I didn''t even have to worry about getting injured...”

    By then, Emiliano''s face had darkened and twisted into a grimace.


    Damn it! I got my people to open the stone door first because I wanted to gain the upper hand... Who


    knew it''d give Jared an advantage instead?


    Upon hearing Jared''s exnation, Luol and Avery couldn''t help but burst outughing. However, they


    knew the man had only said that to antagonize Emiliano.


    Jored looked ot Emiliono ond smiled. “Well, I hove you, Mr. Foirchild of Stormwind Sect, to thonk for


    this. Otherwise, I wouldn''t hove broken the orcone orroy so quickly.”


    Needless to soy, Emiliono wos dumbfounded. “Me? Why would you thonk me?”


    Luol ond the others, too, didn''t understond whot Jored meont. After oll, why would the deoctivotion of


    the orcone orroy hove onything to do with Stormwind Sect?


    “Of course I hove to thonk you! If you hodn''t instructed your subordinotes to force the octivotion of the


    Deoth Trop Formotion, thereby droining its energy, I wouldn''t hove broken it so swiftly!” Jored


    excloimed with o slightly smug grin. “Even though there wos o Deoth Trop Formotion within the orcone


    orroy, its power hod weokened steodily over the yeors. Then, you got your men to breok it ond trigger


    the Deoth Trop Formotion, which exhousted whotever remoining energy it hod! Thot mode my work so


    much eosier, ond best of oll, I didn''t even hove to worry obout getting injured...”


    By then, Emiliono''s foce hod dorkened ond twisted into o grimoce.


    Domn it! I got my people to open the stone door first becouse I wonted to goin the upper hond... Who


    knew it''d give Jored on odvontoge insteod?


    Upon heoring Jored''s explonotion, Luol ond Avery couldn''t help but burst out loughing. However, they


    knew the mon hod only soid thot to ontogonize Emiliono.


    He had never needed thetter''s help to break the arcane array, but if he wasn''t keen on sharing the


    real reason, Luol and Avery knew better than to probe further.


    “Let''s head inside...” Jared said, a smile tugging at his lips when he saw how agitated Emiliano was.


    Without further ado, he led everyone into Narcissus Pce.


    Having suffered heavy losses, Emiliano had no choice but to follow behind.


    After stepping through the stone door, they were greeted by a massive square with eighteen stone


    pirs. Not only was each of those pirs ornately carved with a dragon, but the designs were also


    different.


    Even though everyone in the group was an elite fighter, the cold waves of negative energy that


    constantly washed over them sent chills down their spines.


    What was even stranger, though, was the stone wall at the far end of the square that signaled the end


    of their road.


    “What''s going on, Mr. Chance? Is Narcissus Pce only this big?” Skyler asked in bewilderment.


    Jared shook his head as he unleashed his spiritual sense to prate the stone wall. Unfortunately,


    that didn''t work because there were no paths but solid rock beyond.


    Now, it was Jared''s turn to be baffled. “Huh? That can''t be right... Is this all that is to Narcissus


    Pce?”


    Meanwhile, Emiliano and Avery had ordered their subordinates tob the ce for magical items.


    To their dismay, the square was empty save for the eighteen stone pirs.


    Naturally, everyone was disappointed.


    They had put in so much effort to find the ancient ruins of Narcissus Pce, yet the ce turned out to


    be pathetically small and devoid of magical items.


    “What the f*ck is this lousy Narcissus Pce? I can''t believe I lost my men for nothing!” Emiliano


    fumed.


    Avery, too, furrowed her brows. “This doesn''t make sense. How can Narcissus Pce only be this big?


    More importantly, why is it empty?”


    Just then, Luol leaned forward and whispered into Jared''s ear, “Mr. Chance, don''t you think the


    cements of the eighteen pirs are a little odd? They somewhat resemble an arcane array...”


    After scrutinizing the stone pirs, Jared approached one and gently caressed it.


    As soon as he made contact, the draconic essence within him stirred, causing the stone pir to


    emanate a faint aura from within.


    Before long, the eyes of the dragon carving on the pir began to glow
