Chapter 777.2 [A Fortuitous Encounter, Together with Danger]
Closer to the snowy campground.
Right now, they could finally see the snowy campground. The scale of this snowy campground was simply breathtaking, it was in no way below that of a city, and was very possibly even larger.
Even before their luxurious airs.h.i.+p drew close, there were already two hundred griffin knights, each of them of quasi-Heaven Rank strength, wearing the unique insignia of the Central Palace Hall on their arms, and wearing unified and magnificent battle armor, neatly lined up to greet them.
A flag-bearing captain took the lead and shouted: “Welcome, brave explorers, to the Third Column of the Vulcan Warriors of the 19th District of the Central Palace Halls, and while wis.h.i.+ng you a bountiful journey, we hope you will report your honorary names in order to register and not mess up the order. Unlike the temporarily established Expeditionary Guild, our service is completely free of charge, and finally, good luck to you again!
“We are from the Eighth Desolate Realms of the Western Heaven Realm, the Silver Trident Region, Xiaofeng 6, Ling Yun country. I, Lord Ling Yun, led my troops and friends here.” Lord Ling Yun knew that Yue Yang would definitely want to hide his strength for the exploration and would not come forward, therefore he very cooperatively came forward and reported his name.
As a Country Lord, although not a big shot in the Heaven Realm, he still more or less had a bit of influence.
The captain of the third column of that Vulcan battle group was startled and rushed to lead the group in a salute once again.
Before boarding the airs.h.i.+p personally to pay his respects.
The parking area for the luxury airs.h.i.+p was then arranged with great pomp and ceremony.
From the Expeditionary Guild that had obtained the news of their arrival, several warriors of Heaven Rank 5 strength rushed over. Once they saw Lord Ling Yun, they immediately laughed and rushed forward, because they were already old acquaintances.
“I say, old Ling Yun, how bored were you.I didn’t think you’d have time for this kind of adventure.Shouldn’t a rich man like you be busy laying on the knee of a beautiful woman and living the life of a drunken king? Last time you yourself said you weren’t interested, Look at you, you even came here in a luxury airs.h.i.+p! Come, come, come. We few old friends should get together and have a drink.” The first one to hug Lord Yun was an extraordinary stalwart man.
“Very well.” Lord Ling Yun laughed bitterly, if it weren’t to get close to the Third Young Master, he wouldn’t have come to this dangerous place. In this type of place, whether or not any treasure found, there is bound to be strife and bloodshed.
However, compared to the friends.h.i.+p of the esteemed Third Young Master, Lord Ling Yun felt the need to fight for it with his life.
Time will not rewind itself and this opportunity cannot be missed.
He determined that the Third Young Master was a n.o.ble existence from the Eastern Immortal Clan If he missed this opportunity to build relations.h.i.+ps with the Eastern Immortal Clan, he would certainly regret it for life. It’s all well and good to live out his comfortable life as a country lord, but the question is, how long can a comfortable country lord keep his power? In the Heaven Realm, someone could come to challenge your position at any time, and if you are not strong enough and do not have the support of a powerful backing, the final result would only be tragedy.
It is better to look for shade under a large tree. He recognized the potential of the Third Young Master to grow into a giant tree.
Lord Ling Yun naturally would not introduce Yue Yang who was on the s.h.i.+p to these people.
Just bringing along City Lord Tu Hai to partic.i.p.ate in their welcoming feast.
On the other hand, he specially ordered consul Xiang Wen who was a careful man to lead Fatty Hai and Ye Kong to walk around the campsite, familiarising themselves while searching for news….two hours later, and thousands of gold pieces lesser, Fatty Hai and the others had managed to gather all the information and leads from the entire campsite.
Although the ancient ruins had been discovered for half a year, almost no one had gone in to explore them because of the lack of sufficient manpower and other conditions.
The only team to try to explore the ruins.
Had been totally wiped out three months ago.
Now, in the entire Snowfield Camp, nearly a thousand Heaven Rankers and nearly ten thousand quasi Heaven Rankers had a.s.sembled. Aside from the Central Palace Hall, a Snow Domain Emperor’s forces and the forces from the temporary Expeditionary Guild, there were three other major forces. Among them was a group of Heaven Rankers from the Eight Desolate Realms which was the group of people who had welcomed Lord Ling Yun earlier. Apart from the Eight Desolate Realms, there were two other even more powerful exploring forces from another two different realms, namely the Snow Plains, and the War Song.
In order to enter the ancient ruins, the minimum condition was to be a Heaven Ranker.
It is not that the quasi-Heaven Rankers are not allowed to enter the ruins, but according to the history of the first team’s total annihilation, the mercenaries below Heaven Rank will all be annihilated within ten minutes of entering the ancient ruins, regardless of how many of them there were, they would not be of any use whatsoever.
For the Heaven Rankers that had entered the ruins, even the weakest amongst them had survived for half a day.
The strongest among them had the strength of a Heaven Rank 5, according to his recount at his deathbed, he claimed that he survived in the world of the ancient ruins for ten days, But because of the power of the law inside, he was about to be extinguished, before he died, he wanted to tell his friends the situation inside, so he rushed back…….
“The treasure inside is not something you can imagine, if you are not afraid to die, you can go inside. If you can come out of it in one piece, as long as you are not about to be destroyed by the Power of Law like me, then you will become the luckiest person in the entire Heaven Realm. Come on, warriors, it is impossible for a coward to gain the favor of the G.o.ds of fortune, regardless of success or failure. Either way, march over our corpses and continue forward!” These were the words that the captain of the previous expedition said before he died.
It was his warning precisely that kept the later expeditions from making a move. It was also his experience that made all the brave mercenaries satisfied. Especially the brave warriors who had strength of the Heaven Rank.
Opportunity and harvest, are always tied to strength.
To obtain a big gain, one must have enough strength, and at the same time, go forward bravely and without regret!
“Interesting. It doesn’t look like a scam, I’m starting to get a little interested. At first, Yue Yang thought that this entire ancient ruin might be part of the conspiracy designed by the Central Palace Hall, but now the information showed that the ancient ruins does indeed exist, and that the opportunity is proportional to the risk. …
