The Death List Novel - Chapter 406
Chapter 406 Epic Plot
“Our journey is very dangerous. Perhaps we might encounter an attack from some evil organization!” Qin Lun’s smile became even more refreshing. He smiled and asked, “What about you guys? What kind of danger are you likely to encounter?”
“We …” Loyle hesitated. “The dangers we might encounter are not clear yet. However, some parts of the journey may need to pass through the underground world.”
“Zhuo Er Fairy?!” Milleras’ pupils narrowed as he listened to the conversation between Qin Lun and the dwarf quietly.
Amongst the four races of the elves, the Sun Elves and the Moon Elves might be competing for leadership, but against the Dark Elves who had transformed into the Drol Elves, they were life-and-death enemies. There was not even the slightest room for compromise. The Sun Fairy would do anything that could make Zhuo Er suffer.
In ancient times, the elves of the Kingdom of Tintagil escaped from the outer realm boundary, Fairlier, and migrated to the main material world, Fairlen Continent. Among the four Elves, the Moon Elves and the Green Elves had gentle temperaments. After experiencing the destruction of the interface, they yearned for a peaceful and stable life.
However, the most powerful elves of the time, the Sun Elves and the Dark Elves, had launched five successive Crown Wars because of differences in power and theocracy. In the end, the Dark Elves were expelled to the darkness of the underground world, becoming the Drow Elves, and the original Elf Goddess Ayushnie became the current Spider God Empress Rose.
The Japanese elves were also enraged by the Fairies for destroying Myjelita and Santa Osrell. At that time, the Vasinanta Empire was destroyed by the Fairy Alliance Army. The Supreme Council and the royal family were annihilated. The remaining Japanese elves moved out of the Utmost Forest and became the Komanso Elves, who lacked ancient heritage.
“Haha, look, we all need help from others. Why can’t we go together?” Qin Lun clapped his hands and smiled. He raised a finger and said, “In the end, there’s only one question. Are there any overlapping routes on our journey? We’re going north next. What about you guys?”
“We also need to head north!” Loyle heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. “I wonder what your destination is …”
“Our next destination is Kalinshan’s capital, Port Kalinn, and then all the way north, across Kalinshan, Tyser and Am.” Qin Lun’s eyes flashed as he slowly said, “What about you?”
“We’re going to the Silvermoon Alliance in the extreme north of the continent!” Loyle’s expression was a little disappointed. The path of the elves only partly coincided with theirs.
However, on second thought, it was only natural that the Silvermoon Federation was already located in the northernmost part of Ferren, with its back against the roof of the world. Apart from the dwarves, very few teams would go this far north.
Hearing Qin Lun’s conversation with the old dwarf, the rest of the team suppressed their laughter. Qin Lun was telling the truth, but to a large extent, he was seducing the dwarves.
The envoy’s journey was indeed dangerous, but he did not say where the danger came from. Although the Santalin Society was an evil organization, ordinary people could not afford to provoke them. The old dwarf did not prepare a draft of Qin Lun’s question beforehand. Although he instinctively avoided mentioning Zhuo Er, when it came to the underground world, how could others not think of it?
The same was true of the other problem. Tyser and Am were the only way from Karinshan to the north. These three countries belonged to the southwest of the continent, and they were all bordering on the endless sea. They were juxtaposed in Sword Bay from south to north.
In terms of the Ancient Era’s Path of the envoys, Qin Lun had only told them half the distance. Although his words carry a destination, it is important to note that he is referring to “the next destination” rather than “the final destination”. As for the dwarves, they were guided out of their final destination. The Silvermoon Alliance was already at the extreme north of the continent, but there was no next stop.
“Silvermoon Alliance, Roof of the World, Ruins of the Sanata Dwarves” The old dwarf’s words echoed in Milleras’ ears. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed through the Sun Elf Prince’s mind, and he remembered something that the elders of the clan had talked about with him.
“Secret Silver Hall?! You want to find Secret Silver Hall, don’t you?” A flush appeared on Milleras’ face as he pointed excitedly at the old dwarf.
The faces of the dwarves darkened. The old dwarf, Loyle, raised his beard and glared at Qin Lun fiercely. At this moment, he finally came to his senses. The silver-haired elf in front of him was simply trying to lure him into telling the truth. Thinking back, what he had told him was insignificant information, but he had completely leaked out all the details.
As the most famous castle in the north of the dwarves, the Silvermoon Hall could be said to be thunderous. Speaking of the Silvermoon Alliance and the roof of the world, how could the elves not think of the Silvermoon Hall?
“What about you? Where exactly are you going?” Loyle suppressed his anger and asked through gritted teeth.
Qin Lun smiled and spread out his hands, pointing at Milleras, but he shut his mouth tightly and didn’t say anything. After all, the main leader of the envoy was Milleras. It was enough for him to do so. Whether he chose to travel with the dwarves next depended on the decision of the Prince of the Sun Fairy.
“We’re going to Deepwater City, and we have to pay a visit to the elven courts along the way!” Unexpectedly, Milleras straightforwardly stated their final destination this time. Obviously, he had reversed his original thoughts and decided to go with the dwarves.
“Deepwater City?! So you’ve been perfunctory just now!” The old dwarf’s expression was a little ugly, and he glared at Qin Lun fiercely again.
“Haha, Tyser and Am have indeed gone through something, so it can’t be considered perfunctory!” Milleras smiled as he tried to smooth things over, but his subordinates secretly gave Qin Lun a thumbs up. “Since they’ve already said it all out loud, then we’ll have to travel together again. Let’s talk about our respective missions!”
“Sure, but I don’t want to talk to him anymore.” The old dwarf angrily turned his head away from Qin Lun.
Qin Lun smiled and quietly walked away, making the old dwarf feel a little more at ease. After all, Milleras would tell him about the situation when they were done discussing. Moreover, during the discussion, he could participate indirectly through Stark and the others.
“Alright, Ferrari will not participate in the discussion.” Milleras gave Qin Lun an apologetic look. “However, we need the help of the mercenaries along the way. See if they can stay and discuss it.”
“If you are a mercenary … Guild Leader can stay!” Old Lloyd snorted heavily, indicating that his mood still hadn’t improved.
…
“Apostle 70053, you have triggered the hidden plot-Explore the Silver Hall. This plot branch is part of a large epic plot called the Silver Hall. The main plot has not yet begun and must be taken from the Warhammer Family of Toril World after completing the branch plot.”
[Discovery Hall (mission difficulty is temporarily uncountable): Shield Dwarf King Bruno Warhammer returns from Ice Wind Valley and swore an oath in front of the Warhammer family’s signature ‘Foaming Beer Goblet’ to regain the pride of the Dwarves-Hall of Michigan in the Northern Lands.
In response to King Bruno’s call, the Snowy Peak Dwarves, who were also descendants of Sanata, sent out an outpost search party. In order to obtain a map to the Mithril Hall in the Iron Star Castle, which was once the same as the Sanata Empire’s castle, and then head north to find the entrance to the Mithril Hall under the roof of the world.
Mission objective: Find the entrance to the Silver Hall and explore the interior of the Silver Hall as much as possible.
Mission reward: Depending on the contribution of the apostle to the mission, the duration of stay will not be increased.
The apostles were reminded that if they killed the legendary creature-Shadow Dragon [Shuo Ying] or the King of the Gray Dwarves-during the quest, the quest would be upgraded by one level, and important upgraded items below Legendary Profession would be given depending on the contribution rate.
Tip: Since the main plot of the epic is still a year away from this point in time, the Broken Star Sky will issue a “Special Spatial-Temporal Location Ball” based on the exploration of the Apostle Team.
Tip: If the epic plot is advanced or delayed due to the apostle’s butterfly effect, the shattered starry sky will be rewarded with a double exploration rate depending on the situation.
Tip: A branch of the main storyline of Silver Hall, the bubbling beer cup, has been accepted by other apostle teams. “The Lost and Fortress Joint Team will form a competitive team relationship with the Lost and Fortress Joint Team after accepting the mission to explore the Micronesia Banking Hall.”
“No way, it’s such a big mission!” Qin Lun didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when he saw the prompt on the death list.
No wonder the Broken Star System had specifically reminded them that Toril World was a newly developed mission world. The exploration of the world was almost unknown, and when he encountered a group of dwarves, it was actually an epic mission.
Robin and Stark, who were listening to Milleras and Loyle’s conversation, returned very quickly. However, neither of them had the joy of the epic plot on their faces. Instead, they appeared to be full of doubts.
Milleras had already agreed to travel with the dwarves. The Sun Fairy Prince didn’t need to worry about lice and debt.
In any case, there was already a Santalin Society. As long as the dwarves didn’t interfere with the Ancient Road, plus the harassment of the Zhuo Er Elves, it didn’t seem to matter. Perhaps he could even avoid the killers of the Santalin Society by exchanging for the underground world in some sections of the road.
However, for the apostles, it was a bit troubling. Although he had already seen the mission, Qin Lun was still unfamiliar with the specific situation. Stark quickly repeated the previous conversation to him.
The Silver Hall was the most famous dwarf castle in the Northern Region, and even in Quanfei Lun. It was once the northern stronghold of the ancient Sanata Empire. Hundreds of years ago, this castle fell into the hands of a shadow dragon called Shuo Ying.
The reason for that was because the Warhammers’ dwarves had dug too deep into the silver, destroying a realm node between the main physical interface and the shadow plane, thus freeing the Shadow Dragon into Fehren’s hands. “Shuo Ying” killed most of the dwarves in Michigan Hall and shared the treasures of Michigan Hall with its shadow monsters and servants made up of grey dwarves.
Logically, the apostles had no reason to give up on receiving an epic mission, but the key now was that there was a dragon in the Chamber of Michigan. This was not the Earth Tyrant Beast that looked like a legendary creature, but a living dragon. Moreover, this dragon was not alone. There were a bunch of shadow monsters beside him, as well as an entire tribe of Gray Dwarf servants.
“According to the information the Dwarves received from the Warhammer Clan, this Shadow Dragon called Shuo Ying is at least a top-tier legendary creature. It might even be a Demigod who has stepped into God’s Domain. In Robin’s judgment, not only us, but even the Lost and Skyfloat guilds are here, I’m afraid it’s enough to drink a pot.”
Stark looked at Qin Lun with a resentful gaze. “You said we should do it, but we shouldn’t!”
