“I said he was too anxious. Of course, I won’t treat saving people as a joke!” Mastasia smiled bitterly and waved her hand. “The judgment just now was just a guess, not necessarily correct. Besides, even if I’m right, the place we’re going to save must pass through the center of the Land of Death, so I’m not wasting any time saving people!”

Hearing Masta Xia’s further explanation, Qin Lun’s expression slowed down slightly and he gave Hill a look.

‘”Please forgive us for being rude just now, but can you tell us what your so-called secret is now?” Hill understood almost without communicating on the guild channel. He took advantage of the situation and asked, “Please forgive us for being rude just now, but can you tell us what your so-called secret is now?”

“Can I not tell you now?” Mustacha rolled her eyes unhappily and said solemnly, “However, you must promise me that after this incident, you will not spread the news outside. Otherwise, it might bring about a great calamity to the Border Gate.”

Rick and the others had also gathered around because the argument had become a bit louder. Upon hearing this, they all said that they would never reveal Mastasia’s so-called secrets. Although they were mercenaries now, they were different from ordinary mercenaries who only wanted to make money.

“What’s the biggest legend you’ve ever heard about the Bird Gate?” Mastasia asked with a smile.

“Needless to say, the biggest legend in the Bird Gate is of course about the legendary pirate Bodean establishing the Bird Gate.” Bandit Lago raised his eyebrows and said without hesitation.

“That’s right. What about the Land of Death?” Mastasia nodded and continued to ask.

Everyone was stunned. There were many important legends about the Land of Death. There had been many epic wars that had changed the situation of the entire continent before the ancient times, and Mastasia’s question was a little difficult to answer.

“Mastasia, are you referring to the legend of Bodean crossing the Land of Death?” Suddenly, a weak voice came from the crowd. Everyone looked at it and found that it was Winnie, whose face was still a little pale.

Under Winnie’s reminder, everyone suddenly came to their senses. There were many legends about the Land of Death. However, the first question to contact Mastasia was clearly another legend of Bodean. He was the only famous human who had ever crossed the Land of Death.

The reason why he was known as a famous human was because he was the only creature or adventurer who crossed the Land of Death, and only he had a clear historical record.

“You found a clear clue left behind by Bodean?” Qin Lun frowned slightly and lowered his head to ponder, “No, no, no. No matter how important the remnants left behind by Bo De’an are, they will not bring disaster to the current Bo De Gate, unless …”

“You found the legendary pirate’s treasure?” Everyone raised their heads in unison, their gazes filled with complex emotions, surprise, joy, worry …

Legendary pirate’s treasure! Even though the people present were not simple, they were also shocked by this discovery. All the emotions in the hearts of humans instantly appeared on their faces, including Qin Lun and the three Apostle.

They were Apostle, and did not need wealth. However, the legendary pirates’ treasures were not only treasures of gold and silver. They should also have his legendary equipment, Magic Scroll, Navigation Diary, and even that world-shaking martial skill inheritance.

The value of legendary equipment and martial skill inheritance was secondary. Compared to them, Bodean’s sailing diary was definitely more attractive to Qin Lun and the others. Legendary pirate Bodean and his warships traveled all over the world, not only in Ferren Continent, but also in the Karatu Continent and the overseas archipelago in the Far East. It was unknown how many worlds they had explored.

This sailing diary is the legend of Bodean’s life, recording the most important history of his time. If Qin Lun and the others were allowed to obtain this diary, it would probably not be inferior to the exploration benefits of the combined worlds of several missions.

“You guys are really rich fans. Say it’s a treasure without even thinking about it!” Mastasia smiled bitterly. No wonder, when mentioning the so-called Pirate King, wasn’t everyone’s first thought a treasure?

“I did discover the markings left behind by Bodean, but there may not be a treasure. Actually, I don’t know what’s inside. I didn’t dare to explore that place at all.” Mastasia shrugged her shoulders and said helplessly, “That is the most dangerous core of the entire Land of Death. Judging from the traces that appear nearby, there should be at least one true legendary creature.”

“Legendary creature!” Everyone hesitated. Their martial power was not bad. However, once the threshold of Legend was reached, it would be completely different, because creatures above Legendary rank would definitely bring their own Legendary Domain.

Even though Qin Lun and the others had already reached Second Grade and were able to contend against high-grade storytellers with their powerful body of Laws, dealing with legendary creatures was definitely beyond their capabilities.

If they encountered a Legendary Domain that had similar attributes, they might be instantly killed. It was the same as when Qin Lun was almost stabbed to death by a high-ranking assassin from the Santalin Society.

“What does Bodean’s clue have to do with rescuing Easten?” Only Qin Lun still hadn’t forgotten the main point of the topic. He frowned and asked unhappily, “You didn’t come here deliberately to find Bodean’s ruins, did you?”

“You know that my goal has always been one!” Masta Xia looked at Qin Lun meaningfully. “Saving people is the most important thing right now. The reason I mentioned Bodean’s clues is because we have to pass through there if we want to continue searching for Eastings …”

‘”We have to go through the main road …” Rick rubbed his chin and said hesitantly. “The Land of Death is the Chongsa River to the south, the Winding River to the west, the trade road to Trail Town to the east, only the north …”

“If it’s the Giant Demon’s Claw on the north side of the Land of Death, then that place really has to pass through the center of the swamp!” Lago and the others, who understood the terrain, had already understood. However, everyone’s expressions became very ugly.

To the north of the Land of Death, there was a cliff mountain range that was difficult to climb on all sides. It was called the Giant Demon’s Claw.

Ever since ancient times, after the war between trolls and elves, these violent and powerful creatures had rarely seen a complete tribe from the plains. Only sporadic experiences that occasionally ran out of the mountains had troubled the past business trips.

However, this did not mean that the troll race had completely disappeared. They had only migrated to mountains that were difficult for humans and elves to penetrate. Only the dwarves of the Northern Lands would deal with them frequently.

The creatures of trolls were different from the dragon flies that everyone had encountered just now. As long as the members of the race were mature, they would generally reach rank 5 or 6.

Giants possessed human-like intelligence and were able to learn totem arts and martial skills. This also allowed most males to surpass their own race in strength. In addition, there would even be Legendary Warriors or Legendary Shamans born within large tribes.

The Giant Demon’s Claw was a mountain range that bred the entire Giant Demon Tribe. This mountain range was almost circular, and the surrounding steep mountain walls rejected all outsiders.

There were only two entrances to enter the Giant Demon’s Claw. One was the meandering river that crossed the mountain range in the middle. The second is the valley of the mountain range north of the Land of Death.

However, both entrances were equally dangerous. There was no need to mention the dangers of the Land of Death. The dangers of the meandering river entering the Giant Demon’s Claw Mountain Range were the work of nature.

The meandering river reached the front of the Giant Demon’s Claw Mountain Range. There were three huge waterfalls. Each waterfall had a difference of more than a hundred meters. The deepest waterfall was two kilometers away from the mountain range.

There were no boats that could enter or leave this place, and if one wanted to enter, they could only rely on flying. However, flying in the air was more dangerous. From the moment they entered the Giant Demon’s Claw Mountain Range, the cliffs on both sides of the river were the habitats of ferocious birds.

This type of bird was called a cockscomb eagle, and it had a vermillion-red flesh crown on its head. It looked similar to a cockscomb, hence its name.

The Cockcrowned Eagle’s body was comparable to a griffin’s. It was extremely wild and aggressive. It was unable to be tamed at the beginning of its life, even the most brilliant beast tamer. They wouldn’t let go of any creatures that passed through the sky. Even dragons would dare to fight.

Each Crow Crowned Eagle had a fourth or fifth level creature. The key was that they lived in groups. Hundreds of them swarmed forward, and the legendary professions would have to drink their claws of hatred.

A long time ago, the authorities of the Gate of Bode had installed cross-river iron chains at the entrance of the winding river into the mountains and placed signs on both sides warning the merchant fleet that had forgotten their schedule.

As a result, although the Winding River was the busiest section of the Border Gate area, this section of the river was rarely visited by people. When the merchant fleet arrived here, they would automatically change to carriages set up on both sides of the river.

“Do you know the information about that legendary creature in the depths of the Land of Death?” Qin Lun pondered for a moment before raising his head to ask Masta Xia.

‘”I’m not sure. Judging from the traces it left behind, it should be a large amphibian or reptile. Hydra marsh, bull hooligan, Swamp Dragon Lizard, Long-necked Water Dragon … There are too many possibilities for me to identify one by one.” Mastasia shook her head, expressing her helplessness.

“If the three of you feel that this mission cannot continue, then our employment contract can be terminated!” Qin Lun saw the Blood Stabbing Trio whispering behind him. He couldn’t help but feel moved and suggested.

Hearing Qin Lun’s question, Rick and the other two couldn’t help but stiffen, their faces filled with embarrassment. They were indeed arguing just now about whether they should continue with their employment mission. After all, if they continued, their lives would be threatened.

Of the three, Largo was more opposed to going deeper, hoping to persuade Schiffer, who was an ordinary person, to leave together. Winnie, who had just been saved by Qin Lun, said that she would go forward and retreat with everyone no matter what.

For the first time, Rick hesitated. The three of them had never argued over a mission before. Thinking of this, the knight looked at Qin Lun and said in a deep voice, “Since we have become mercenaries, we naturally have to have a beginning and an end. However, I have already said that you are not our employer. How about this, if the mercenary group continues to follow you, it will be up to Mr. Seaver to decide!”

The Blood Stabbing Trio looked at the confused Siver at the same time. Qin Lun shook his head and smiled. He lowered his head and whispered to Siver.

Seeing Seaver’s expression change for a while and slowly becoming firm, Rick let out a sigh. It seemed like the answer was self-evident.
