Chapter 284 The Person From The Third Layer
Other than wanting to gain wealth, Drake wanted some people from Planet Earth to notice that someone like them was here.
Although they could not find him, at least, they would know that someone like him was once here, even in the off-chance that he died.
That’s why he had left numerous clues like those pieces of literature and even using tents like these in the off-chance anyone managed to recognized them.
Taking careful steps towards the book that was outside the defensive formation, Drake looked around as he called out, "You got me, I’m the one who wrote of this book. If you are trying to rob the spirit stones I gained from selling, then I’m sorry to say that I have disappointed you..."
At first, he only made measly purple coins but after the stories started to become popular, the nobles took notice and treated his books as collectibles, so the price increased a lot, and he gained numerous spirit stones in the process.
Well, it was a win-win situation for him since it was quite difficult for him in the past to gain spirit stone with his measly pockets and ideas.
Once Drake was at the edge of the barrier, he looked back and nodded his head. Kara instantly understood as she moved to deactivate the defense formation.
The moment the barrier disappeared, the two of them suddenly found a young man standing in front of their gaze.
The young man was about 100 meters away from them and had a calm facial expression. His look seemed to say that he didn’t mean any harm but it was also ambiguous since they found his expression eerie in this mountainous region.
Kara’s expression was one of astonishment as she thought of how young this person was, who had managed to elude their senses without even giving out the slightest presence.
But she then immediately assumed that this person should be older than them.
On the contrary, Drake’s eyes shone after he had picked up the book and read the first page.
He had only read a single word, but it was enough to cause enormous waves in his heart.
"Jotaro!" Drake voiced as he widened his smile.
The calm facade in the young man’s face crumbled while a grin also appeared on his lips as he walked towards him, "Dio!"
"Oh? You’re approaching me?" Drake let out a chuckle, "Instead of running away, you’re coming straight to me?"
The young man’s expression became bright as a silvery battle aura slowly but vigorously surrounded the young man’s body, "I can’t beat the shit out of you without getting closer!"
"Oho... Then come as close as you like..."
Drake clenched his fists as he also let out a silvery battle aura, his body faintly covered with a yellow glow.
Once they were just 5 meters apart...
*Boom!~*
Both of them jumped to the air and pounded with their fists at each other simultaneously!
"Muda! Muda! Muda! Muda!!!"
"Ora! Ora! Ora! Ora!!!!"
There were cracking sounds and the air near them retreated as their punches contained enough force to punch a rock mountain into bits and pieces.
Soon, the continuous punches didn’t even last long before Drake felt his fists stinging with pain. "What??" He shouted, "Time, stop!"
The young man instantly froze in the air as if time had really stopped.
Drake rubbed his fists, relieving the pain but before he could even continue with the farce, a sword tinged with cold aura flew straight towards Davis.
Davis who was in the air, felt his scalp turning numb. He instantly did a backflip in the air no longer caring about the farce while the icy sword flew past his head as it pierced open a tree.
"Kara, stop!" Drake shouted causing Kara to flinch as she was startled.
She quickly retrieved her sword and looked at Drake in confusion.
"He’s not an enemy, well, at least for now..."
Her eyebrows raised, she replied, "If you say so..."
She didn’t understand one single word those two were talking about, so she assumed that the young man was an enemy and promptly attacked seeing that Drake was in a disadvantage.
Drake turned his gaze to the young man and gave off a dry laugh.
The letters written in the first-page book was none other than the 4-letter-word; MEME.
Davis’s eyebrows twitched as looked at Drake’s half-hearted apology.
"Misunderstanding, it’s a misunderstanding..." Drake repeated once again while he shook his arms.
"Misunderstanding? I almost got my head cut off!" Davis lashed out in mock anger. Truthfully, the attack was aimed to stop him from attacking but it also held a certain amount of killing intent behind it.
"Friend, I suggest taking a step back lest you unknowingly clash with Mt.Tai..." Drake raised his eyebrows.
"Alright, enough with the troupe..." Davis sighed seeing that this guy was enthusiastic enough to even start a classical xianxia troupe after the farce had been ended.
Drake gave off a hearty laugh, "Hahaha! It really is true! I’ve never thought that I would meet a person from my previous world!"
"Did you come through that spatial tunnel?" Drake asked as his expression turned solemn.
"Uh... Yes..." Davis thought for a moment before replying.
Since the other person also came from the spatial tunnel and seemed friendly, he thought there was no harm in revealing.
Besides, he was confident that he could take down the two of them in case of any hostile situation were to occur.
Drake let out a chuckle and asked, "For what reason did you approach that place? Oh wait, did your ship got wrecked and ended up ashore on that Island as well?"
’Huh? What ship? What Island?’ Davis got confused but he instantly realized.
"I guess we came from different spatial tunnels..." Davis replied.
Drake narrowed his eyes, then nodded his head thinking that should be the case after he noticed Davis’s confusion.
In fact, both of them never denied the fact that another spatial tunnel, another way to travel might possibly exist on Earth. It is just that, they haven’t had the opportunity to find the other one yet.
"So how did you end up here?" Davis asked in a curious tone, not expecting a reply.
"Dragon’s Triangle, you?"
Dragon’s Triangle? The place that was also called the Devil’s Sea near Japan?
Davis was surprised but instantly understood, so he replied, "A secret temple in China..."
Drake’s brows lifted up, "You’re Chinese? I’m a European..."
Davis nodded to his reply indifferently but then Drake laughed as he shook his head, "Ethnicity doesn’t matter anymore, whatever..."
Davis was about to nod but he was concerned about something else, "Where did the spatial tunnel lead to?"
Drake suddenly had an awkward expression on his face. He hesitated for a moment before deciding to say, "I really don’t know..."
Davis was startled.
What an obvious lie! Did he want to hide the location of the spatial tunnel to Earth?
Even so...
’Why lie? Just say that you won’t reveal it! It’s not like I’m after your spawn point!’ Davis inwardly shook his head.
