Nanyu was a calm person, but it was obvious that her eyes were flickering with joy.
They had not met each other since the World College Tournament, but they had all gathered on Tianshan Mountain.
The eight of them were basically all the members of the national team.
As for the others, they did not get along well with each other, or were even on opposing sides. If these people were here, it would not be a coincidence at all.
"A truly strong Magician would have to pay a visit to Tianshan Mountain no matter what," Ai Jiangtu seemed to be very obsessed with Tianshan Mountain.
Many people were obsessed with Tianshan Mountain, but they had all shown up at the same time. The people who were initially hesitant about the mysteries and dangers of Tianshan Mountain felt a little more confident now.
"When are you planning to depart?" asked Zhao Manyan.
"If only you were here earlier. The four of us have joined a mercenary group. After all, we aren't familiar with the weather, the wind, the terrain, the distribution of demon creatures, and any unexpected situations on Tianshan Mountain. It's useless to rely on the information we gathered," said Jiang Yu.
"It's not a bad choice to join a mercenary group."
"Why don't you join the mercenary group with us too? They are in need of people, so we'll ask the leader to assign you to our group. It'll help us avoid a lot of problems," said Nanyu.
When the environment was extremely harsh, it did not matter how strong one's cultivation was. It was more important to be experienced and wise.
"The journey to the Rift Valley of Tianshan Mountain is very long. We do need to follow a group," agreed Ling Ling.
If they did not stumble into Ai Jiangtu and the others, Ling Ling was planning to let them join a large Hunter Group. However, since Nanyu and the others had chosen to join a mercenary group with better training, it was not a bad idea.
"Over the past few days, at least three thousand Magicians have entered the Rift Valley of Tianshan Mountain. Not many of them have made it to the Scar of Tianshan Mountain. It doesn't really matter to them, since they will be able to find a lot of rare treasures along the way, "said Guan Yu.
Guan Yu's eyes kept glancing at Mu Ningxue while he was speaking. However, he noticed that not only was Mu Ningxue sitting very close to Mofan, their skin was even touching.
There was such a distance between a man and a woman, so they could only be lovers.
As a matter of fact, Guan Yu already knew his relationship with Mo Fan was going to fall apart when he learned Fanxue Mountain was established. However, he could not help but feel uncomfortable when he saw how close Mofan and Mu Ningxue were.
…
Mercenaries were similar to Hunters, but the difference was that mercenaries were more integrated than Hunters. They were closer to military management, and their team members were basically fixed.
Hunters were more carefree and unoccupied. They mainly followed the bounty hunters, whereas mercenaries could be considered a private army. Ai Jiangtu was most likely used to the quality of an army. He was more inclined to join a mercenary group, which had more orders to execute than a Hunter group.
Mercenary groups were usually selected from the elite Hunters. The mercenary group that Ai Jiangtu had chosen was one of the top three mercenary groups in Asia. There were over a hundred and ten members in total, and they were divided into ten teams.
Mofan and the others were assigned to the ninth team. It was obvious that Ai Jiangtu was quite close with the Vice Leader of the mercenary group. Otherwise, a mercenary group with a relatively stable team would not accept an unfamiliar Mage so easily.
"The Mailong Private Military Group, even an organization based in Dubai has come to Tianshan Mountain after hearing the news. This trip is going to be lively!" Zhao Manyan exclaimed.
The Mailong Private Military Group was quite reputable in Asia. Their members were incredibly strong. The missions they accepted were no longer just bounties. They were even willing to take on missions involving countries in the Middle East.
It was rare for him to join such a huge mercenary group. He felt a lot more at ease on the trip to Tianshan Mountain.
"I heard that the Mailong Private Military Group has its own city in the Middle East?" Jiang Shaoxu asked.
"Mm, they have their own city. Like some governments, they mainly collect taxes. However, their main focus is still on missions and expeditions. They are being sponsored by the Liden Royal Family to explore the Scar of Tianshan Mountain. On one hand, they are trying to earn the Liden Royal Family's reputation by conquering the world. On the other hand, they are trying to find the Snow Lotus of the Scar of Tianshan Mountain for their queen, who is seriously ill, "Ai Jiangtu told the group.
"The Liden Royal Family is indeed wealthy," Zhao Manyan exclaimed.
"Your Zhao Clan has their own flag too. They have hired one of the best Hunter groups in our country," Guan Yu said.
Zhao Manyan twisted his lips. He did not dwell on the topic.
He had no idea what Zhao Youqian was up to. He had hired the most expensive Hunter Group in their country to explore the Scar of Tianshan Mountain.
It was not like they were trying to land on the moon.
"What's wrong with the Liden Royal Family's queen?" Mofan asked.
Mofan had heard a little about the Liden Royal Family's queen from Xinxia.
Tata insisted on not allowing Xinxia to use the Spell of Resurrection, as she hoped that Xinxia would use her remaining power on the Liden Royal Family's queen, to earn the Liden Royal Family's support.
As a matter of fact, both Xinxia and Iza had tried, but they were unable to cure the Liden Royal Family's queen.
"It's not really an illness … it's just a matter of lifespan. Not everyone can live to a hundred years old. Some people are nearing the end of their lifespan when they are in their fifties or sixties. The Liden Royal Family's queen's condition is very simple, "Jiang Yu said.
Mofan came to a realization after hearing Jiang Yu's explanation.
No wonder Iza and Xinxia had no idea what to do.
Even the Spell of Resurrection would not be able to save her. The Spell of Resurrection was not immortality. It would not work on someone who had died of natural causes!
"I know a little about the Liden Royal Family. The Royal Family's queen is not on good terms with her eldest grandson. She wants to leave all her assets to her youngest grandson. She even made a will, but her youngest grandson is still in her granddaughter-in-law's womb. He won't be born until half a year later. An unborn child has no right to inherit her assets. In other words, if she can't hold on until her grandson is born, all her assets will go to her eldest grandson, "Zhao Manyan said.
"The Snow Lotus of the Tianshan Scar can prolong a person's life. Apparently, it can last for three to five years, or at most ten years. That means the Liden Royal Family's queen doesn't mind spending a fortune to hire the Mailong Private Military Company, "Jiang Shaoxu said.
"That's fine too. They are looking for their Snow Lotus of the Tianshan Scar, while we are looking for our Totem Beast," Zhao Manyan said.
"What Totem Beast?" Nanyu's eyes suddenly glittered as she asked.
Zhao Manyan realized he had let the cat out of the bag. He wore an awkward expression.
"We are here to look for the Totem Beast," Jiang Shaoxu said. He did not think there was any reason to hide it.
"The Sacred Tiger of Tianshan Mountain?" Nanyu asked.
"You know about the Sacred Tiger Totem of Tianshan Mountain?" Jiang Shaoxu was astounded.
