Derton and his companions were too conspicuous in the Underworld.
After waiting for over an hour, when the three major forces were getting impatient, a Lizardman walked over and told them that they could go in.
They entered the depths of the small city, and in a simple house, Lin Yun was already waiting with his people. This time, only Xiuban and Reina were there, the other natives weren't there.
After hearing about what happened outside, Lin Yun knew that it was definitely the three major forces that had come looking for him. Lin Yun was a bit surprised, 'How come these guys haven't been killed?'
But if they were still planning to cause trouble, he would leave them alone for a while. These people could endure for over an hour without flaring up, so Lin Yun knew that their operation in the underground world wasn't going smoothly.
The people of the three major forces were startled when they saw Lin Yun. Derton's expression instantly became gloomy.
"Mafa Merlin! Heretic of the Crown of Thorns! "
With one sentence, Dai Nuosong and Reeves knew who this young man was. They couldn't help being startled, but they soon got a headache.
Dai Nuosong's expression slightly changed, and his tone wasn't very pleasant.
"Sir Derton, did you forget our previous agreement? This isn't the territory of your Holy Light Alliance. This is the last warning. If there is a next time, our cooperation will be over. You can go wherever you want!"
'Derton, that idiot, that mad dog, I shouldn't have cooperated with that idiot. Damn, who doesn't know that the Crown of Thorns is closely related to Mafa Merlin? The purge of the Crown of Thorns might be related to that young man.
'To be able to spread the Gilded Rose throughout the northern part of the Odin Kingdom in a few years and even make the ancestor of the Rodney Family admit defeat, how could he be a simple person? It's said that this guy is related to the Starry Sky College's Great Astrologer.
Looking at those fearsome steel battleships, they were probably the latest product of Starry Sky Academy's research. How frightening, just these steel battleships were enough to make me feel a fatal threat. If the cost and difficulty of creating these steel battleships weren't too high, the rise of Starry Sky Academy would be unstoppable.
Moreover, this was the Underworld. That Mafa Merlin had already subdued a few races of the Underworld, and many of them had a very favorable impression of him.
Damn it, I'm here to seek cooperation, not to offend anyone. Derton, that idiot, mad dog …
Dai Nuosong's tone was very unpleasant as he warned. Beside him, Reeves also had an ugly expression on his face. The look in his eyes spoke volumes.
Derton held his breath and gritted his teeth, not continuing. This wasn't the territory of the Holy Light Alliance, it wasn't even Noscent, he could only endure.
Derton lowered his head and stopped talking. Only then did Dai Nuosong step forward and laugh dryly.
"H.e. Mafa Merlin, I'm Dai Nuosong Chester of the Chester Family. This is Sir Reeves of the Tower of Storm, and this is Sir Derton of the Holy Light Alliance.
"Sir Derton is in a bad mood, so please don't lower yourself to his level.
"We came to the Underworld to find out that you were also here. We came this time to look for you to cooperate with us in exploring some ruins. That ruins seems somewhat dangerous, but the harvest inside is definitely very bountiful …"
Lin Yun had a strange smile on his face as he looked at Dai Nuosong. He simply didn't pay attention to Derton. This kind of mad dog, and a mage using Holy Light, hadn't been killed in the Underworld purely because of his luck. Being killed was only a matter of time.
The underground world wasn't a weak plane, there were definitely powerhouses at the 7th or 8th Rank of the Heaven realm, and there might even be 9th Rank Heaven powerhouses. Apart from the founder of the Holy Light Alliance, anyone else would be killed sooner or later, it was only a matter of time.
"Sir Dai Nuosong, I'm not interested in exploring the ruins …"
Dai Nuosong became anxious before Lin Yun could finish his words. They couldn't even take a single step in the Underworld. There were many things they didn't understand, and they didn't know what was going on. They might offend some powerful Underworld lifeforms. Moreover, they needed the help of the Underworld's natives to find the entrance to the ruins. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to find the entrance, so they could only seek Lin Yun's help.
"H.e. Mafa Merlin, don't refuse, the harvest of those ruins will definitely satisfy you. This is something our ancestor's contracted magic beast personally experienced, it's related to Gods. The harvest inside is definitely very bountiful, but it's quite dangerous. Moreover, we'll need the help of the Underworld's natives to find the entrance to the ruins. You have the right to choose whatever you find first!"
Dai Nuosong said. Not only was Lin Yun shocked, but Derton and Reeves were also shocked. They originally thought that it was the ruins of some powerhouse of the Underworld, but they hadn't expected it to be related to Gods.
As long as it was related to Gods and Demons, nothing was simple. Even if it was a stone, after being infected by the power of Gods and Demons, it would become a precious material. When the blood of Gods and Demons dripped down and condensed into a stone, it might become a precious blood gem.
Lin Yun was a bit shocked because he instantly thought of the 73rd God. The only God that could be related to Gods in the Underworld was the 73rd God. Of Noscent's 72 Gods, none had a territory in the Underworld. This was once regarded as an exiled world. During the Era of Gods, no God would descend to the Underworld.
There had never been any records of a God falling in the Underworld, so it could only be the 73rd God!
"Tell me in detail, maybe I'll be interested."
Lin Yun pretended to be interested and casually said.
Since Dai Nuosong mentioned a God, he naturally wouldn't hide it.
"A few millennia ago, my ancestor encountered a heavily injured Heaven Rank Magic Beast. He signed a contract with that Heaven Rank Magic Beast and saved it. Then, he learned about the legend of the Underworld from that Heaven Rank Magic Beast.
It came from the Underworld, and when it was escaping, it accidentally appeared in Noscent. A God's power appeared there, and all lifeforms died. Only it luckily escaped and fell into Noscent through the shattered space. It was pure luck.
"It then told my ancestor about the Underworld, as well as about the God power of my ancestor. That place became a ruin.
"At that time, the passage to the Underworld had yet to close, so my ancestor personally went there. Unfortunately, he didn't find it and only found some ruins. He fought with a powerhouse of the Underworld and was injured, so he could only return. After that, the passage to the Underworld was closed."
Hearing this, Lin Yun was certain that the so-called ruins were definitely related to the 73rd God. The place where the 73rd God reincarnated. The first thing he had to do was to silence all witnesses and make all lifeforms that felt his power die.
That was the only way to keep it a secret!
And that lucky magic beast might have accidentally survived and appeared in Noscent. The 73rd God might have thought that the lucky Extraordinary Magic Beast had already died.
"It was impossible for my ancestor's contracted magical beast to deceive him, so my ancestor kept this matter in mind. Through research and the memories of the contracted magical beast, he constantly drew maps and clues. Only then did he find a vague range. Later, as he grew stronger, he completely gave up on this matter.
"I accidentally obtained my ancestor's records and learned of this matter. I couldn't open the passage to the Underworld by relying on my ancestor's power alone, so I found another way to come here.
"H.e. Mafa Merlin, that is a ruin where God power once appeared. Gods have already fallen in the river of time. The power of a God appearing here is most likely a God's weapon, or a God's corpse. It's definitely more shocking than anything related to Gods that has appeared before!"
Lin Yun sank into contemplation. Hearing Dai Nuosong's words, it was very credible. He had been in the Underworld for over a month, and during this time, he had used the scarce rations of the Underworld to pave the way. The news had definitely spread far and wide. Even if many people came to exchange information for rations, there was almost no valuable information, so this news should have already reached the 73rd God.
Hearing that someone was looking for him, the 73rd God would definitely have some reaction, but he didn't react at all. This was very abnormal. Hearing this news, Lin Yun guessed that his previous guess might have been wrong. The place Dai Nuosong was looking for was the place where the 73rd God reincarnated. Going there to take a look might be the best choice.
"Okay, I can cooperate with you, and I can also let the lifeforms of the Underworld help me find clues, but why should I work alone?"
Lin Yun pondered for a long time before reluctantly agreeing to cooperate. This made Derton explode, but just as he was about to say something, he was stopped by Reeves, who had been staring at him the whole time.
Derton gritted his teeth, his expression dark, but he endured and didn't say anything.
'That damned heretic actually dares to extort us! You only need to pay a pile of cheap rations in exchange for such important information, and you are still not satisfied? Greedy Devil, you should be purified by the holy light!'
Dai Nuosong naturally heard it, but he couldn't say anything. Food was indeed the cheapest thing in Noscent, but it was a large amount of resources and wealth here!
"Lord Merlin, we can compensate you for the things you need to pay, but you should know that we can't use the exchange method here to exchange for those rations …"
Lin Yun nodded.
"Since we are cooperating, we will naturally have to share the effort. I spent a lot of effort to transport such a small amount of rations here, and the amount of power I used to get here isn't a small amount.
"According to the exchange rate here, it naturally won't be the same. How about this, let's do it a hundred times the exchange rate here. You can each take 20% of the rations, and I'll take the remaining 40%."
Dai Nuosong's eyelids were twitching, Derton's eyes were burning, and Reeves also had a pained expression. Everyone knew that Lin Yun was making them bleed, and they had no choice but to pay.
Lin Yun's rations weren't worth much in Noscent, but in this place, exchanging for less would mean a large loss of resources. This loss couldn't be borne by Lin Yun alone, could it?
Everyone understood this reasoning, but making these people take out a pile of precious materials to exchange for rations they normally wouldn't even bat an eye on, even if those rations wouldn't appear in their hands.
A hundred times the exchange rate sounded very high, but it was no different from daylight robbery.
Dai Nuosong took out a large pile of precious materials, and Reeves also took out a pile of precious materials for Lin Yun. These were to make up for Lin Yun's losses. Both of them knew that as long as they could smoothly explore the ruins, any harvest would be worth a hundred times more than what they were paying now.
If they didn't want to return to Noscent, they could only go all the way and gamble.
Only Derton remained silent with a dark expression. His gaze was as cold as a knife as he stood on the side after taking out a large pile of materials.
Damn bastard, stupid and greedy heretic. Just you wait, wait for the power of the Holy Light to purify you. These things are your funeral gifts. As long as we find the ruins, it will be the day of judgment for you, greedy heretic!
Lin Yun didn't care about what Derton was thinking and casually put away the pile of precious materials. There were quite a few first-rate materials that couldn't be found in Noscent. They were innate True Spirit Magic Tool embryos, and if used well, they could even be used to nourish Extraordinary Magic Tools.
After getting the pile of precious materials, Dai Nuosong took out a map. It looked relatively simple, and there were only a few landmarks on it. This kind of map couldn't be understood unless it was a native of the Underworld. Moreover, it had to be a race that had lived in the area shown on the map to be able to understand it.
After getting the map, Lin Yun started looking for people to look for the location marked on the map. After such a long time, who knew if the environment shown on the map had changed a lot?
The people of the three major forces waited there while Lin Yun had his subordinates look for the more knowledgeable races of the Underworld.
After four or five days, they finally found a Hawksbill Turtle that knew the location marked on the map. But that location brought a huge problem.
"According to the confirmation of the Underworld races, the location marked on the map is in the Blood Elves' territory, and it is already deep in the hinterland. We have to go through at least seven Blood Elven Cities to reach that place.
"That place is currently a desert, and there is a Blood Elven City there. If we want to find the ruins, we can't go around the Blood Elves."
Lin Yun explained everything he knew, and the group's expressions turned unsightly.
After being in the Underground World for so many days, it would be impossible for him not to know about the arrogant and powerful Blood Elves. If he ventured deep into the Blood Elves' Scarlet Wasteland, he would definitely clash with the Blood Elves. How would he explore the ruins then?
Just as everyone was thinking about how to bypass the Blood Elves, Xiuban hurriedly rushed in.
"Sir Merlin, the Blood Elven Army has arrived. Many of those arrogant fools have already entered the Tungus Mountain Range …"
Before Lin Yun could say anything, Dai Nuosong laughed, "It's perfect, it's perfect.
"Just in time, just in time. These Blood Elves are looking for trouble, and we can use this as an excuse to counterattack. As long as we occupy that city, our exploration can proceed smoothly. At worst, we can just give up on the occupied city after exploring the ruins.
"We aren't from the Underworld, and the Blood Elves' territory isn't that big. I believe those Blood Elves wouldn't refuse us food if we appeared in the Beastmen's territory."
Reeves was also shouting with a murderous aura.
"Get rid of those arrogant b * stards!"
Derton silently turned and left. He had been accumulating anger for so long, so he had to find someone to vent it on. Now that he couldn't do anything to Lin Yun, these Blood Elves became the best targets to vent his anger on.
Even the Sacred Light Alliance, which had always been like a rabid dog, could endure the accumulated anger over a relic that was related to Gods and Demons.
Outside that small city, the Lizardmen Army, the Minotaurs Army, and the Dark Dwarves Army had all gathered. Any one of these races would be the best warriors.
These guys, who usually didn't have enough to eat, were now eating until they were stuffed. Moreover, this group of b * stards didn't have anything to do after eating, so they could only fight. Fighting took up more than half of their time every day.
This group of experienced b * stards had been waiting for a fight, and now, it was the Blood Elves, their mortal enemy. Before Lin Yun could say anything, the group of b * stards had already gathered and were ready to attack at any time.
Lin Yun didn't let his subordinates attack, he instead looked at the three major forces. In order to enter the underground world, the three major forces had spent a lot of resources. Every one of them was a Heaven Rank powerhouse, and the strongest among them was Reeves' group of three. They were all 5th Rank Heaven Rank powerhouses, and their forces could be considered among the peak forces of Noscent. The power the three of them could display was definitely a bit stronger than that of an ordinary 5th Rank Heaven Rank powerhouse.
Derton was the first to rush out. He had been stifling his anger every day and couldn't endure it any longer.
Reeves and Dai Nuosong also flew out to meet the Blood Elves.
On the distant horizon, a large shadow was rapidly flying towards the Tungus Mountain Range. Terrifying mana fluctuations could be felt from afar.
Derton had a solemn expression as he raised the radiant staff in his hand. Law runes emitting holy radiance curled up around him, and as Derton chanted an incantation, a crack seemed to appear in the sky above his head. Boundless holy light sprinkled down from within, turning everything within several kilometers into a world of holy light. The power of holy light frantically converged there, and the power of darkness was expelled.
