Following Seaver’s explanation, Qin Lun’s uneasy speculation was confirmed. The reason why Elistine continued to stay at Bird’s Gate after the Apostle team disappeared was purely to find him.

Back then, Joey had used his companion card in the Undead Valley to teleport Milleras and the others to Tower of Durrag. He had obtained the original legendary druid Twilight, then transformed it into the Uviron obelisk guarded by the Centaur Undead and successfully arrived at the Bird’s Gate.

In the end, not many of the people who had been abandoned by Joey in the Undead Valley survived. Apart from a few lucky ones, the Lost-Fortress Joint Team, including the Dwarf Elder who protected Dwarf Prince Lorraine and the Bonnie Knights of the Ames Guards, all perished in the Undead Valley.

After this battle, the Apostle team continued to escort the Sun Elf Prince Milleras to Deepwater City, inevitably coming to an end. The Apostle finally left Toril World at the fourth point of this epic quest, the Gate of Bod.

Before returning to the starry sky, Kelly and the others used the excuse of not being able to continue escorting Milleras to terminate their employment contract.

Of course, Milleras could fully understand these companions. Moreover, the Gate of Bird was not far from Deepwater City, and the city council of the Gate of Bird was also very friendly to the Japanese elves.

The Evergathering Island that the Japanese Fairies had colonized earlier was located in the Endless Sea opposite Sword Bay. It was different from the human countries in the south-central part of the continent. Border Gate, Deepwater City, Coldwinter City, and other large cities that were close to Sword Bay, all had good intentions towards the Fairies on Evergathering Island.

There were no territorial disputes between humans and elves in the endless sea. Instead, there were broad prospects for trade and cooperation between the two sides.

Whether it was asking the four Dukes of Parliament at Bird’s Gate to send guards or waiting for Eternal Assembly Island to send someone to help, Milleras’ escort requirements for Kelly and the others were dispensable.

Kelly and the Japanese Elves envoy could use appropriate excuses to leave, but Qin Lun could not.

His storyline was Theopia Anke Fairy Court of Elf Prince-Filar Moonlight, and he had no excuse to leave Milleras, especially when he was accompanied by Elistine Moonset, a confidante of his race.

Thus, Qin Lun used a simple and crude method. He simply abandoned his wife and son … Oh no, he left without saying goodbye. After playing with a living person, he left the courtyard where the Japanese Elves diplomatic corps was temporarily staying and never came back.

There was actually a reason why Qin Lun would do this. He had already felt Elistine’s dependence on him at that time, especially after the incident at the Tower of Durrag.

At that time, under the threat of the centaurs, Qin Lun abandoned Milleras, Elistine and the others and escaped from the underground library alone. Then, under the reminder of Lost Rookie Group member Rice, she overcame her indifferent nature and turned around to save her companions.

Ever since then, a girl’s heart in Elistine had unknowingly attached itself to him.

However, unlike Elistine, Kieran did not think that Elves druids had a deep and unbreakable feeling for him after just a few months together. He felt that as time went on, Elistine would forget him sooner or later and leave without telling him was the best way to leave.

This was also Qin Lun’s usual way of dealing with emotions. Although he had been in contact with many women in the mission world, there weren’t many women who had truly entered his heart.

Qin Lun’s first woman was Catherine, the hostess of the Orphan World. It was only the first experience of his life, but Catherine was wrong and left an indelible mark in his heart at the cost of her life.

In the end, Qin Lun handed over the mixed feelings of tragedy and romance to Joey, becoming a memory symbol abandoned by the murderer.

After the orphan world, Qin Lun closed his heart and reminded himself that he would no longer have unpredictable contact with the women in the plot.

In the Illusory Demon Realm, he encountered a young martial artist, Junko Yoshida. However, apart from helping her, Qin Lun had deliberately kept his distance.

In World War II, he met Lady Monica for the first time and happened to save the Sandstorm Queen. However, during the war, the two of them did not have time to fall in love. Although the Sandstorm Queen had a good impression of him, nothing happened to the two of them in the end.

Later on, in Nars World, Michelle the Centaur, the policewoman leading the way for the apostles, also admired Kieran, who looked like Elves. However, Qin Lun finally persuaded her to stay with the legendary mage Holk and not continue to develop this relationship.

Even though Qin Lun had deliberately kept a distance from these women, the mental pressure left behind by the quest world still allowed him to vent in the Hunter world that followed. He had a night of dew marriage with Fei Jie, a beautiful woman of the Imperial Sister Style. Later, he borrowed some strength to help Fei Jie avoid the attack of the Phantom Brigade on the gangster auction house.

However, Fei Jie was wary of Qin Lun’s somewhat dark methods of doing things, and she was also afraid of the strength of the Phantom Brigade. After accepting Qin Lun’s warning, he quickly left York City and did not participate in the Norstra Family’s guard work.

After that, it was Kieran’s two adventures in Toril and the Divine Comedy World. In Toril he did not accept Elistine’s feelings, and in the latter world of the divine melody, he was finally moved by the Sandstorm Queen, who had been waiting for decades, and left behind a promise for Mrs. Monica to take her away in the future.

Now that he heard the news of Elistine again, Qin Lun had no choice but to face this relationship again.

“Why did Elistine and Idrea go to the Land of Death to look for clues about me?” Qin Lun took a deep breath and suppressed his chaotic thoughts.

‘”Well… Elistine didn’t tell me much. We met by chance. At that time, Elistine had already become an official mercenary registered with the Border Gate Mercenary Association. According to Idrea, who was accompanying her, they lived on mercenary missions while staying at the Border Gate to get information about you.”

Seaver peeked at Qin Lun as he spoke. The expression on his face was that of a heartless man abandoning his wife and son, which made Qin Lun angry.

‘”What about Idrea? Why did she stay? I don’t believe that Lady Lauvita’s follower would fall for me, or that she would fall for any man … Wait, Idrea doesn’t like … cough cough cough!” Halfway through Qin Lun’s words, he suddenly froze, his expression a little strange.

“Idrea doesn’t have that kind of hobby. You two are comrades who live and die together. She’s not as burdened as the others, so she naturally has to stay and help Elistine.” Seaver looked at Qin Lun with contempt. “According to her, she was a Knight Templar who came out to cultivate in the name of Lauvita. It was the same everywhere. It would be good to become a mercenary.”

Seaver seemed to recall something and added, “However, the night before we left the Gate of Bird, Idrea seemed to have said that they were going to the Land of Death to find a member of the Santalin Society …”

“The Santalin Society, yes. The Santalin Society was chasing after the Japanese envoy from Elves. Elistine might think that they took me away.” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up. Santalin was indeed Elistine’s greatest motivation to stay at Bird’s Gate and continue searching for Qin Lun.

If Elistine thought that Santalin would be responsible for Qin Lun’s disappearance, then she had the best explanation for taking the risk to go to the Land of Death.

The headquarters of the Santalin Society is in the northern city of Fort Santir, on the north bank of the Lunar Sea, in the northern part of the Comanso Forest, which borders the south bank of the Lunar Sea.

In the modern history of Phelan, Santalin would be a mortal enemy of Komanzo’s Ri Elves. It was precisely for this reason that the Japanese Elves Court wanted to move to Eternal Assembly Island.

The main purpose of the Santalin Society was to control the trade routes of the Ferren Continent. As one of the largest trading ports along the coast of Sword Bay, they also had some influence in the Border Gate.

According to the information Qin Lun had obtained from Milleras, Santalin’s influence at the Gate of Bird wasn’t very strong. After all, this place was tens of thousands of kilometers away from Fort Santir. Their influence on the trade routes of the Gate of Bird was relatively weak. They were mainly here for the production of gems and magic crystals from the Land of Death.

Thinking of this, Qin Lun sighed and turned to look at his other two companions. He said on the guild channel, “Looks like I have to go to the Land of Death. However, I’m not sure if I can find the relevant storyline quest there …”

“Haha, we came in with the world token you gave us. You are naturally the leader of this world.” Hill and Rand glanced at each other, nodded and smiled, “As for whether you can receive the storyline mission, it depends on luck. If you really don’t get anything, then it’s not bad for you to owe us a favor.”

Hill and Rand’s words were true. Qin Lun’s favors were always very valuable. Rand had given him a peer card back then, and he had received a huge reward.

Even if it was a fair deal, Qin Lun had not let the other murderers suffer. Grant, who had worked with him the most, had benefited greatly. As the core of his profession, the Ultra Destructive Fist, the White Giant bloodline, and the Elena Sacred Nail that he had exchanged for Hill were all huge gains that made him covet.

Qin Lun glanced at Seaver and whispered on the guild channel, “If we’re going to risk our lives in the Land of Death, we definitely won’t be able to do it by ourselves …” “We can’t show ourselves now, so let this guy hire a batch of cannon fodder for us at the Mercenary Guild.”

“Yes, you brought enough gold from the Amberry Church. With the Bird Gate storyline mercenary corps as a shield, if you can still receive the epic storyline, you can also hide our identity as Apostle very well.” Hill and Rand nodded in agreement.

After the three of them reached an agreement, Qin Lun turned around and looked at the young gentleman in a difficult situation, revealing a kind smile.

“What do you want to do?” Seeing Qin Lun’s harmless smile, Seaver instinctively trembled, wrapped in a tattered shirt.

“According to what you said, Mason Old butler was only kidnapped by the Giant Demon Tribe. I don’t know if he’s alive or dead, but haven’t you thought of finding him?” Qin Lun asked softly.

“Do you think I don’t want to? After I escaped back to Bird’s Gate, I organized a few expeditions. However, those mercenaries only circled around the periphery of the Land of Death and refused to go deeper. I can’t force them.” Seaver said with a sad face, “I found a mercenary group from the other side for the last time, and … they even robbed me of the rest of my belongings.”

“Oh!” Qin Lun looked at the unlucky child speechlessly. Everything was the same. Sometimes, only a big fist had the right to speak. Seaver was just a ruined noble without any strength or influence, so it was no wonder that the mercenaries were perfunctory towards him.

“It’s different this time. You can go to the Mercenary Guild again.” Qin Lun’s eyes flashed with a cold light as he said, “Remember, this time tell the head of the Mercenary Union that money is not a problem, but as long as we are strong enough … desperados!”
