The sea serpent hissed in agony, its eyes now filled with hints of fear. Jacob seized the opportunity to attack again. He swung his sword to battle the sea serpent. At the same time, the girl ran toward the ice soul fragment while the snake was occupied. She grabbed the treasure and fled.
Seeing the girl succeed, Jacob leaped back, planning to break away from the fight. He had no need to waste his spiritual energy on the sea serpent. It's sufficient that we get what we want. Killing this sea serpent is unnecessary. Unexpectedly, right after the girl acquired the ice soul fragment, three people suddenly appeared and blocked her path. Their eyes were filled with murderous intent.
The girl was taken aback. She clutched the ice soul fragment in her hands as a panicky look flitted across her eyes.
Jacob hadn't anticipated an ambush there. He wanted to go over and help the girl, but the sea serpent blocked his path.
