371 Mercenary Groups (1/2)

The Three Great Mercenary Groups had gathered in the Tulan Mountain Range. Lin Yun definitely couldn't believe that they had no ulterior motives. It would take several hundred thousand golds for such a large force to mobilize like this. Why would they be in the Tulan Mountain Range if it wasn't for something major?

Moreover, why the Tulan Mountain Range?

Lin Yun had been puzzled about this. 'Is it related to the Gaugass King?'

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case...

The Tulan Mountain Range wasn't a scenic place, and the three mercenary groups weren't idle travelers. They inevitably would only move out en masse to complete some objective.

After all, the mercenaries that came this time could be considered elites. It could be seen from the Temple Knights he had encountered earlier. The one leading them was a Sword Saint using a True Spirit Magic Tool!

The team had consisted of High Mages, Expert Swordsmen, and Divine Archers...

The teams of the other two mercenary groups shouldn't be inferior to the Temple Knights' team, either. They likely had at last a vice leader commanding them. Lin Yun estimated that there were at least three Archmages or Sword Saints in the Tulan Mountain Range, and maybe more.

But he also felt there was a problem with that idea. How could the three mercenary groups know of the Gaugass King's secret?

'Could it be…' Lin Yun's heartbeat sped up as he thought of a possibility. 'What if they knew that the Gaugass King wasn't dead? But how could this be?'

Lin Yun knew about everything because he had come from the future...

But even he had only come to this conclusion by guessing...

Lin Yun didn't have any evidence proving that the Gaugass King hadn't died...

He wouldn't have been able to confirm this without talking to Leon.

So how could the Three Great Mercenary Groups know?

This was a bit troublesome...

Only the Gaugass King's six-formula Meditation Law Set was important to Lin Yun...

What Lin Yun lacked right now was a Meditation Law Set. He didn't dare to attack a higher realm without establishing his core Meditation Law Set.

In fact, with Lin Yun's unreasonably large and stable mana pool, he could easily become a 5th Rank High Mage.

The only reason he was still a 2nd Rank High Mage high mage was the fact that he was suppressing his own rank until that issue was fixed.

As long as Lin Yun got that six-formula Meditation Law Set, he could advance to the 5th Rank anytime he wished, and if he wanted, he could even become an Archmage within half a year.

From this, it could be seen how important that six-formula Meditation Law Set was to Lin Yun.

Not to mention, this wasn't the most important part...

The most important part was that these three Meditation Law Sets would be fused with the Mage Array to establish Lin Yun's true magic foundation and let him tread a path of magic that no one had ever walked before...

Thus, Lin Yun would do anything to get the Gaugass King's Meditation Law Set. Even if a God stood in his way, Lin Yun would find a way to slay that God!

Not long after Yilu left, Lin Yun wiped away his tired expression, becoming lively. He could feel all the mana fluctuations in the camp and couldn't help inwardly exclaiming to himself. They were truly worth being the Three Great Mercenary Groups of Okland, as they were far stronger than he'd imagined. Just the number of High Mages was frightening.

'An Archmage!'

At this time, an intense mana fluctuation startled Lin Yun. He raised his hand and three Mage Eyes instantly left the camp and floated around in the valley, overlooking the entire scene.

A dozen people were situated in the center of the camp in a circle, the weakest of which was actually a 5th Rank High Mage. They were divided into three groups. If Lin Yun wasn't wrong, these ought to be the core members of the three mercenary groups. An old man in the group seemed quite inconspicuous, looking thin and bony, but Lin Yun knew that those powerful mana fluctuations came from him. He was an Archmage.

The red-haired Expert Swordswoman, Yilu, stood behind the Archmage with a heavy expression.

”Dean, your request couldn't be considered too excessive, but you also know that this valley is too narrow. If our Heaven Enlightening Mercenary Group gives up a portion of our living quarters, we wouldn't have enough left to use…” The Archmage squinted at the Sword Saint not far ahead of him.
