Eternal Thief
chapter-728

Looking at the last nonfiction, Ace was instantly startled, "There is an elemental orb in this place?!"

Ace never expected that he would find another elemental orb in the sun realm of all places, but when he thought about the Union's mysterious background, it didn't seem that much of a surprise after all.

"[Affirmative!]"

Ace calmed his excited nerves as he knew this time around, he had stumbled upon a treasure trove, but this treasure trove could also turn into his graveyard if he wasn't careful and noticed by the guardian.

"You said it is Yang Element Orb, a third mutation form of the Fire Orb like the Ice Element Orb, which is the second mutation form of the Water Orb?" Ace quickly asked as he remembered the information about the Ice Orb, which was in the wind and was not in its supposed place, and its guardian had turned into a corpse puppet.

"[Yes, the Yang Orb in the Sun Realm is a level higher than Ice Orb when it was taken from its altar. If the Host wants to know more, you need to explore on your own. The system has already done what it can during the Heaven's Stealer Mission. Now host has all the tools he needs to complete the mission. The system can not be of further assistance!]"

"Well, for what it's worth, I really appreciate what you're doing for me in this mission. But if you could get rid of that death penalty, I'll be even more grateful to you and can do this mission with more ease." Ace instantly tried to sweat-talk the system as it was really acting in a much more cooperative manner than it usually does, so he tried to use his acting skill.

However, the system completely ignored him like usual after it was done with its job. Ace could only give up with pursed lips as he knew it was now time to do his job, and there was really no escaping the death penalty if he messed up.

But if he messed up even with the new treasure blueprint, then he was not qualified to be the Heaven's Stealer at all.

Without hesitation, he opened the Live Fate Map again, and it was instantly opened, and he didn't feel any Soul Qi consumption at all, just as the system said.

The live fate map was no longer blank as it now showed terrains with full details, and its color had changed to blue.

But what was different was that there were black words on top of the map projection, spelled 'Death Zone.'

At this moment, Moira also spoke, "Sir Ace, the Lord (System) has granted me a very powerful ability to prove you with assistance. Now I can see all the terrains, formations, hidden treasures, and routes in the Sun Realm. If you want to inquire about anything or mark specific locations with the Thief Mark, you just need to tell me, and I'll prepare the routes for you!"

Ace cocked an eyebrow as he was just wondering how he was going to see the entire map with just that small projection, but it appeared Moira was now his guide which was far more convent.

"Can I see the entire map as well?" Ace wanted to look at the entire map as it would be more convent to choose where he wanted to go and what kind of treasures were hidden in this place. Most importantly, he wanted to look at the locations of his objective and the elemental orb.

"Of course, you just need to close your eyes and then focus on the compass symbol, which represents the live fate map, and then you'll be able to see the entire map of the Sun Realm!" Moira quickly replied.

Ace quickly did as he was told, and the next moment, when he focused on the live fate map's symbol, a huge map suddenly appeared in his mind. It was completely virtual as he could see everything, and he was shocked when he saw this map was divided into nine layers like a building.

Not only could he now see the traps' location, but he could also see where exactly they were placed and how they would work.

What truly drew Ace's attention was the 'Layer Guardian Zone' on each layer which was in the core of every layer. In detail, there were written that if he wanted to enter the next layer, he needed to bypass these Layer Guardian Zones.

These Zones were like fortresses, and almost all the treasures on the layers were stored in these zones.

Expected these zones, there were Treasure Zones which were actually not old much significant in Ace's eyes since they were just raw materials mostly. They were all named with colors, and most of them were the faint colors of silver which clearly showed their importance.

However, on the third layer, a treasure zone instantly drew Ace's attention. It was marked with Glittering Silver Words, and when he read them, Ace almost didn't believe his eyes.

'Treasure Zone: Fire Spirit (Low-Grade-8), there is even a Fire Spirit in here?!' Ace was absolutely shocked as he never expected to see this coming, and this fire spirit was not even in the Layer Guardian Zone.

Suppressing his excitement, Ace then looked through the other layers and was even more shocked and felt he was dreaming.

There were two more fire spirits on the 6th and 9th layers, and they were intermediate and high grade-8s, respectively.

Not only that, but Ace also noticed that there were extremely rare Grade-8 treasures marked in glittering silver color, and he finally understood why this was a treasure trove.

However, those locations all had red names guarding them, and some even had black names, like the three fire spirits were all guarded by black names.

If he can clean this entire realm, he can be the richest in the ten continents!

Last but not least, the Yang Orb was in the Ninth Layer Guardian Zone, and to his surprise, it was right beside his target, which was written in black color, the independent realm space core!

'Could it be the orb the core is guarded by some terrifying being together?' Ace grimly presumed as he wasn't expecting this turn of events.

Still, he had no choice but to proceed with it as he had no other choice.

Ace noticed another anomaly on the second layer at this moment. A red name, 'Unknown Entity,' has been moving toward the layer guardian zone at a very fast speed.

"What is an unknown entity?" He tried asking Moira, as this was the only unique entity he had found on the entire map. Because all the name entities were named 'Realm Entities.'

At this moment, Moira gave him an unexpected, startling response, "This person should be someone like Sir Ace, not from this realm, an outsider!"
