After sailing for a while, the cruise ship quickly arrived at the small island.
Although everyone had disembarked, the cruise ship remained anchored, for they only had one day's time. Whoever was able to retrieve Luminous Pearl and return to the ship would be declared the winner.
Upon landing, Jared and his companions realized that it was a small island with scenery that blew them away. The size did make sense, for if the island was too big, they wouldn't be able to complete their goal in a single day.
“Mr. Chance, the air here is so fresh that it feels great just breathing it in,” Shane remarked as he took a deep breath greedily.
Instead, Jared furrowed his brows after taking a gentle sniff.
“Captain Walsh, tell the men to hold their breath and recycle the air within their bodies as they advance,” Jared ordered.
Shane was stunned by Jared's puzzling orders. Why do we need to hold our breath amidst such pleasant air?
Despite his doubts, he complied with Jared's instructions and ordered his men to do the same.
Fortunately, no one was below the level of a Grandmaster. Therefore, they were capable of recycling the air within their body while holding their breath for a period of time.
“Andrew, get your men to hold their breaths.” Jared advised.
“Jared, what's going on? Did you notice something?” Andrew asked inquisitively.
“I can feel that there's something wrong with the air as if someone had tampered with it,” Jared explained with a frown.
“Tampered?” Andrew was briefly startled before breaking into a smile, “Jared, you're being overly cautious. Given how big the island is, it’s impossible for the air to be tampered with.”
Andrew didn't believe Jared at all.
No one is capable of meddling with the air on the entire island. How is this even possible?
