“Mason Old butler is in the middle of the bamboo cage. Be careful. His condition is very bad!” Elistine curled up and moved out of the bamboo cage bit by bit, climbing down the wooden stake. Elven druid was kind-hearted. Although he was eager to see Qin Lun, he still hadn’t forgotten the most important thing.

“Understood!” Lago looked at Elistine curiously, but he was slightly disappointed that Elven druid was now covered in dirt. Thieves had long heard that Seaver had come to the Land of Death to seek death because of Mason Old butler, while Qin Lun had come for the sake of the female elf companion in front of him.

After Elistine climbed down the flagpole, he couldn’t wait to look at Qin Lun. The silver-haired elf looked at him with a familiar smile.

Her eyes slowly became moist, and her eyes seemed to be covered in a layer of mist. During the nights when she was imprisoned by the troll, Elistine had dreamt countless times that Qin Lun would appear in front of her. However, after many pleasant surprises, she would always be awakened by the troll’s noise and return to the cruel reality.

The silver-haired elves in their dreams had different images. They were elegant and graceful, but they also had miserable images of blood flowing all over their faces. However, one thing was the same, the shrewd Ferral Moonlight’s face was always not so clear, as if it was covered with a layer of light veil.

Whenever she reached out to grab the silver-haired elf, that person would quietly draw a distance, making it impossible for her to really get close.

Qin Lun looked at the haggard Elistine in front of him, and an inexplicable emotion surged into his heart. Elven druid’s attire was very different from before. Her ragged clothes were obviously not druid garments that she was accustomed to wearing, but a tattered leather armor of an ordinary mercenary.

The druids were not forbidden from entering the Gate of Bod, but if they wanted to truly integrate into the city and become an adventure mercenary, the female elves would not be able to wear druids’ strange clothes for long periods of time.

The life of a mercenary was very different from Elistine’s previous life. The quiet Elves beauty probably wouldn’t get used to that kind of life. She had obviously suffered a lot in the past few days when she was searching for Qin Lun.

For the first time, Qin Lun found it difficult to understand his emotions completely. It seemed to contain a lot of emotions, but it was as if he didn’t have anything. He had thought that Elven druid would be happy to see him, but Elistine’s frozen appearance did not look very happy.

“Elistine!” Qin Lun took two steps forward and called out carefully.

“Oh?!” Elistine came back to her senses and immediately realized something. She reached out and touched her hair. She lowered her head and asked softly, “Am I ugly now?”

Qin Lun’s eyes lit up. He didn’t know what to say for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses. He opened his arms and wanted to give Elistine a hug.

“My body stinks!” Elistine instinctively shrank. Because the wounds on her body hadn’t been treated with medicine, most of them were festering and rotting. They emitted a stench. Even if she was in the troll camp, she still couldn’t counteract this stench.

“Don’t mention it!” At this time, Qin Lun was so lucky that he didn’t let Elistine dodge. He quickly took a step forward and hugged the female Elves tightly. He whispered in her ear, “Thank you so much!”

Tears rolled down Elven druid’s thin face, leaving two white marks on his dirty face. Elistine grabbed Qin Lun with his back, buried his face in Silver-haired elf’s shoulder, and rubbed against him forcefully.

“Ferrari, I’ve finally caught you!” Under the cold moonlight, the two Elves looked like a pair of Eternal Stone Statues tightly hugging each other, as if they had ignored time and everything in their surroundings.

“I didn’t come here in vain!” Not far away, Mustacha raised her head, exhaled a long breath, and whispered softly.

“Cut!” Idrea, who had just climbed down from the flagpole, saw this scene and couldn’t help but curl her lips, giving Qin Lun a look of contempt.

“Hey, what are they doing?” Lago also came down, holding the unconscious Mason Old butler in his hand, laughing as he teased Elves on the high ground.

Mustacha glared at him fiercely, then sighed helplessly. She approached the two from behind and whispered, “Hey, you two, I understand your feelings very well. However, how about leaving this place now?”

The two of them seemed to be frightened. Elistine gently pushed Qin Lun away and buried his head deep in his chest. He leaned on the shoulder of the silver-haired Elves exhaustively. “Let’s go, don’t put your companion in danger again.”

The group of people carefully crawled out of the troll camp. This rescue trip went unexpectedly smoothly, and not even a troll was alarmed during the entire process.

Of course, Qin Lun and the others knew that their danger had not yet begun. It was only after dawn that the test for them truly arrived. Although trolls weren’t good at tracking enemies, this was still the Troll Claw Mountain Range, and trolls that were familiar with the terrain couldn’t completely lose track of their prey.

The Giant Demon Village’s sacrifice festival was about to begin, and these savage natives would not let them escape easily. Moreover, the troll camp here was very close to the entrance to the Land of Death, but it was still at least four to five days away from the northern exit of the meandering river.

Along the way, Qin Lun and the others had to not only identify the direction, but also evade the pursuers. Because there were other troll tribes along the way, they could only hide in the daytime and avoid these troll camps, inadvertently slowing down their speed.

Once they were discovered by the trolls behind them or the trolls along the way, there would still be a few fierce battles waiting for them. Perhaps it was just a matter of time.

After meeting Rick and the others, the happiest person was Seaver Hulan.

“Old Mason, you’re still alive! Thank you, thank you, thank you everyone!” Seaver received the skinny Old butler from Largo in surprise and thanked everyone with tears and snot.

In fact, from the day he lost Old butler, he never expected to see this old man who had been taking care of him since he was a child. After failing to organize a mercenary troop several times, his mental state was on the verge of collapse. That was why he was unwilling to return to his hometown of Tyser and had been drinking in the tavern.

“Young Master Seaver, am I already dead?!” Perhaps it was because of the jolt just now, or perhaps it was because he heard Seaver’s voice. The old man who had been unconscious finally opened his eyes, and a trace of an abnormal flush appeared on his face.

“No, Mason, I’m here to save you!” Schiff wiped his face and helped Old butler up with tears and laughter.

“Seaver, let Hill see Steward Mason!” Looking at Old butler’s abnormal expression, Qin Lun frowned slightly and pulled Hill over.

Hill was now a Second Grade Priest. Although this was not a purely auxiliary priest, it was still a priest profession and naturally possessed healing skills. Otherwise, in terms of damage skills alone, Hill might as well change his profession to a mage or Warlock.

“His condition is very bad, and he is too old. He is almost out of oil.” Hill observed Mason and shook his head with a bitter smile.

“Is there any hope?” Qin Lun whispered to Hill, and at the same time, he paid attention to not letting Seaver hear him, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

“A person’s lifespan is like a candle. Once burned clean, other foreign objects won’t help much.” Hill shrugged and sighed helplessly.

“Is there really no hope? Can’t our Apostle recovery medicine do the same?” Rand came over to the side and said regretfully, “It was not easy to save him …”

“There’s still hope. However, the medicine is useless. We need to use another method!” A strange light flashed in Hill’s eyes as he chuckled. “If I hadn’t been here, he would have been dead if I had been a priest from the order camp.”

Hill’s method was the Darkness Contract. As a priest of Chaos, he assumed that his faith in Toril World was that of an Abyss Devil God, not even a human God.

With the help of the Dark Contract, Hill could extend Mason’s life for a period of time, but there was a price to pay. Even if Mason signed this dark contract, he probably wouldn’t be able to live long. At most, it would only take a few years. Moreover, he would die in great pain.

Fortunately, because Hill’s faith was fake, this dark contract was also fake. When Mason died, his soul would not be harvested by the Abyss Devil God. However, if the Abyss Devil God found out beforehand, the old butler would also die.

“Seaver, move aside and let Hill talk to Mason for a moment.” Qin Lun pulled away the noble youth and let Hill and Mason talk face to face. This kind of dark contract naturally required him to be willing.

“Haha, this old man knows his own physical condition. It’s already an eye-opener for the heavens to see Young Master again. If I can take care of Young Master for a few more years, then a little pain is nothing!” Mason looked exceptionally calm after confirming that the Dark Contract would not allow the Abyss Devil God to harvest his soul.

The old man had lived for so many years, and perhaps the only one he couldn’t bear to part with was Seaver, who had watched him grow up since he was a child.

The magical fluctuations of signing the Dark Contract attracted the attention of Mastasia, Veni, and the others. However, they were smart enough not to ask. Everyone knew what was going on in Mason. No matter what their beliefs were, they could not oppose helping this old man at this time.

“I feel much better. What a magical spell!” Mason felt the vigor in his body and opened his eyes wide in surprise. As soon as the Dark Contract was signed, his spirit recovered at an obvious rate, and he was actually able to stumble to his feet.

“Alright, let’s go!” Rick looked vigilantly at the troll camp and whispered to everyone to leave.

“Easten, let me help you!” Qin Lun took advantage of the gap just now to replenish the elven druid with some recovery medicine.

“No, you follow everyone. Idrya and I will go together.” Unexpectedly, the elven beauty refused. She smiled and supported each other with the female knight. “When you were away, Idrea and I lived and died together. Now that I’ve found you, it’s time for me to take care of her.”

“Heh, just follow that guy. I’m a follower of Lauvita. Perhaps this difficulty just happens to be the Goddess’ test for me. I don’t need anyone to take care of me.” Although Idrea said that, she proudly waved her eyes at Qin Lun.

“Alright, you guys can do whatever you want!” Qin Lun grinned and did not persevere any longer
