The Death List Novel - Chapter 630
Chapter 630 Traces Of Bodean
[Tip: Team Black Iron 5364, you have discovered the remains of the legendary pirate Bodean and triggered an exploration-type alien mission.]
Bodean’s trail (mission difficulty unknown): This is a medium-sized exploration scenario based on subsequent discoveries. Apostle needs to follow existing clues and obtain further conclusive clues.
Mission objective: Search the area where the person’s belongings were found, and learn about the deeds of legendary pirate Bodean, as well as other historical records of the person’s age.
Mission reward: This mission is an ad hoc exploration storyline. Real-time rewards will be awarded based on historical items obtained by Apostle. Additional exploration points will be added to subsequent accumulations and rewarded according to Apostle’s respective contribution points.
[Prompt: The world time spent on this mission will not be counted as the duration of stay. After the mission is completed, the remaining duration will be recalculated, or recalculated when Apostle leaves this region.]
[Prompt: This world mission is not a shared mission. No other guilds will participate in the competition for the time being!]
“I finally have time to catch my breath!” When Qin Lun and the others saw the mission information, this thought came to their minds.
In the next moment, they were gratified to see that the duration of their stay had not only stopped beating, but had actually increased in part. Hill immediately calculated in his mind and discovered that this portion of the increase in staying time was precisely the amount of time they had spent in the Land of Death.
In other words, Starry Sky still gave them some “discounts”. It wasn’t from now on calculating this mission, but from the day the three of them entered the Land of Death, it was as if they were executing this “Bodean’s Trace”.
Currently, they still had about ten days left in total. The time they spent was basically their schedule at the Bird’s Gate and at the Land of Death.
“This is a lot more generous. If we don’t get anything this time, then we still have time to search for other mission clues.” Hill smiled on the guild channel and said, “Qin Lun, do you know what this adventure in the Land of Death reminds me of?”
Qin Lun’s eyes lit up as he recalled the adventures he had experienced with Hill. He hesitated and asked, “Is the inner world of Nars?”
“Mm. Isn’t this very similar to a shelter camp? There are powerful creatures everywhere. Every time we go hunting, we must be careful.” Hill nodded and replied.
“The environment is indeed a bit similar. However, there are fewer intrigues between Apostle’s guilds. The combat level of the creatures is much higher, and it is even harder to control the situation.” Qin Lun said with a bitter smile.
After all, the Nars World was a training world prepared for Apostle by the Broken Star System. At the very least, the legendary experts in the camps would not deliberately make things difficult for Apostle. This place was different. The encounters they had encountered along the way had clearly told them that not only did the natives here not like them, they also treated everyone as a delicacy.
“Mastasia, where should we go now?” Largo’s expression was somewhat excited. Compared to his other two companions, he was born as a thief and was naturally eager to search for treasures for adventure missions.
“Before we begin, I must remind you that I have never explored the next journey. It belongs to an unknown region.” “The only thing I’m sure of is that there should be a ruling swamp creature in this territory,” said Highland Elves solemnly with a serious expression.
“We can feel it. Unlike the Wildlands bull rogue, it should be a legendary creature this time. My perception has always reminded me to leave this place.” Rick smiled bitterly and tapped his fingers on his temples.
“It’s good that you guys are mentally prepared!” Mastasia nodded in satisfaction. “Alright, no matter what the legendary pirates are, we still aim to save people and head to the entrance to the canyon of the Giant Demon’s Claw.”
“Of course, but what if I happen to pass by the place where Bodean buried the treasure?” Lago said with a smile.
“Then let’s do it according to the rules of adventurers. Whoever sees it has a share, distribute the treasures with their heads!” Qin Lun’s straightforward voice came from behind, “Mastasia, as the provider of clues, will get 20% more!”
“Guys, I’m not here for treasures!” Mastasia shook her head and smiled bitterly. “Don’t be overwhelmed by profit. It’s hard to say if you have a treasure or not. Monsters are certain. Don’t lose your lives for it. Although the harpsichord isn’t afraid of dying in the quest, I hope to live another two years.”
After a brief discussion, the team resumed their journey. This time, they were not going to rest at night. This place was already deep in the heart of the Land of Death, filled with unknown dangers. They did not wish to be killed by the monsters in their sleep.
“Drink this!” Hill patted Seaver on the shoulder and handed him a bottle of healing agent filled with golden liquid.
The people in this team were all experts, and not resting for a few days or nights didn’t have much of an impact on them. Seaver was the only ordinary person. In addition, he had been worried for the past few days and was running away. He was exhausted. Now, he bent down and barely made his way. His face was pale as if he was about to die.
Seaver took the bottle and drank it without asking.
After drinking this golden potion, he quickly felt a warm heat flow coming out from the depths of his body, circulating endlessly around his body, causing his mind to immediately tremble.
“What is this thing? It seems to be very effective!” Seaver hesitated for a moment before asking.
The magic of the Ferren Continent was well developed, as was alchemy and pharmacy, both of which were mystical knowledge. Although there were many medicines that could be beneficial to humans, most of the materials were very precious. On the other hand, there were some similar drugs that could stimulate the potential of the human body. It was very common for them to use stimulants that could stimulate the potential of the human body.
However, this kind of thing had sequelae. At this time, Schiff was not afraid of drinking poison. He hoped that he would have a chance to be rescued after escaping from danger.
“Don’t worry, it’s the sacred water of our church!” Hill was so shrewd. Seaver asked, and he knew what the other party was worried about.
“Right, you’ve always said that you’re a priest. Which church do you believe in?” Seaver asked curiously.
However, this time, Hill only smiled and remained silent. The Church he believed in did not exist in this world. If it was any other occasion, he could casually use a divine element from Ferren. However, Mastasia was also at the side, so he didn’t dare to speak nonsense in front of a knowledgeable harpsichord master.
“One bottle is more than 20,000 yuan. There are no sequelae. Don’t worry!” Rand sighed from the side. The thing Hill gave Seaver was a compound restorative. The high concentration of holy water produced in the starry sky was mixed with some Queen Bee Golden Honey and carbon-based protein pills.
This thing was prepared by them. It could recover their health and mana at the same time. High concentrations of holy water also had the effect of eliminating negative mental states.
Of course, the effects of this compound restorative on the characters in the plot were not as effective as Apostle’s. They did not have a body of Laws. However, there was no problem in using it to recover the strength of ordinary people and regulate their spirit. After all, it had cost more than 20,000 broken crystals.
“More than 20,000? Silver coins, or gold coins?” Seaver widened his eyes like a curious baby.
“Hurry up and follow the team, there’s no need for so much nonsense!” Qin Lun smiled and gave him a push, signaling the noble youth to follow his companions who had already set off.
After departing again, everyone slowly discovered that this swamp region was slightly different from the Dragonfly Nest region and the Wildlands Cow Rogue region.
If there were other areas of the Death Swamp, lakes, and other land veins to follow, then this place was different. The lake here was even bigger. Sometimes, a vast expanse of white mist covered the surface of the water, making it impossible to see if there were any dirt roads ahead.
Many times, when they were halfway there, they realized that there was no way out, so they could only take a detour back to where they were. The road leading to the ground was flooded by the lake water, and many water-bound spirits could even be seen looking at them with cold eyes under the water.
The night was getting darker and darker. As time passed, Mage Winnie had no choice but to use her Light Technique to light up the gemstone at the top of the staff. Although this might attract the legendary magical beast, the threat of not being able to see the path was imminent.
After circling around for most of the night, Mustacha finally lost her sense of direction. Now, no one knew if they were heading in the right direction.
“Listen, what is this sound?” Lago suddenly stopped in front of them and waved his hand to stop everyone. He held his breath and listened attentively.
“You’re hallucinating, aren’t you?” Winnie was a little tired and teased him unhappily. Even if it was just a light spell, it would still consume a lot of energy to maintain it in the middle of the night, making her feel extremely exhausted mentally.
Qin Lun and the others didn’t mind giving her some potions that could restore her spirit energy, but the female mage wasn’t Seaver. Even if these recovery products had only a small effect on ordinary people, it was still enough for them to be energetic. However, when it came to storyline experts, it was even less obvious.
It’s like pouring an ounce of water into a glass, you can clearly see the amount, but if you pour it into a pond, it’s like there’s no amount. It was too much for Qin Lun and the others to afford. The things they were using were at least 10,000 to 20,000 pieces of high-grade broken crystals, but they couldn’t afford to spend them in large quantities.
“Silence, Lago is not joking!” Rick gave Winnie a stern look. Everyone froze in place for a moment, afraid that they would disturb the thieves with outstanding hearing power.
“Qin Lun, can you see anything?” Rand asked quietly on the guild channel.
‘”I can’t see it. There’s a distance limit for staring at the halo. The sound the thief hears should be somewhere in the distance. Do you want to … be underwater!” Qin Lun’s eyes suddenly lit up as he thought of a possibility.
He had already noticed that the lake where the Water Binding Spirit was located was originally able to see a staring halo of one to two hundred meters, but he could only see a depth of more than ten meters underwater.
“Mastasia, are there any legendary aquatic magical beasts that aren’t amphibious in the swamp environment?” Qin Lun frowned and turned to ask the Highland Elves.
“Why are you asking?” Mastasia pondered for a moment and said, “The swamp environment is usually more powerful than amphibious magical beasts. For example, we encountered barbaric bull rogues, ancient hydras, swamp dragon lizards, and so on. After all, the swamp is not an ocean, and its water depth is limited. It cannot accommodate large aquatic legendary magical beasts, but it cannot rule out all possibilities.”
“That means there might be, right?” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up and he looked at the thief who was still listening by the water’s side. His expression immediately changed.
