Chapter 299: The Grave of the Greedy!
Where should we go next?
Ye Qiu looked out at the endless sea, feeling a bit confused suddenly.
Charles walked to his side, "I mentioned before, the Eye of the Death God is actually a super-sized portal left from ancient times."
"And the area it transports to is not any corner of the real world, but between the cracks of the real world and the spiritual world."
"Here, the rules of life and death can be overturned in an instant, because this is the boundary between life and death."
"We have already entered the territory of the Death God."
Ding-a-ling!
Just then, a bell rang out across the sea in front of them.
Suddenly, a strange green mist appeared, and an old lady appeared on a rickety wooden boat coming towards them on the sea.
Wherever the wooden boat passed, the sea turned dark green, and the mist of the same color rolled in!
The sky and the earth dimmed at that moment, eerily quiet, with only the mysterious bell ringing constantly.
"Welcome to the other side of the echo, my dear guests. I have a boat here that can carry you both on a journey."
The old lady’s voice was hoarse, sounding like the wind blowing through a broken drum skin, making a harsh rustling sound.
"Where would you like to go, my dear guests?"
The old lady lowered her head, her emerald green eyes like poisonous snakes, and Charles swallowed nervously, "Take me to the Land of Gold!"
The old lady suddenly smiled mysteriously, "As you wish, please board the boat first, guest."
Charles quickly climbed onto the wooden boat, and then the old lady looked at Ye Qiu, "It’s your turn, guest, where would you like to go?"
Ye Qiu took a deep breath, "Hero Cemetery."
。。。
In a dark misty sea, Ye Qiu stood on the small boat unable to see anything, surrounded by thick dark green mist.
Ye Qiu didn’t know how long the boat had been rowing until the mist in front of him suddenly parted to reveal a path.
The boat suddenly stopped, and the old lady pointed to the end of the path, "Land of Gold, just beyond this path."
Upon hearing this, Charles quickly got up and climbed out. He ran along this path, and the vision in front of him became clearer and clearer!
Land of Gold!
The legendary Land of Gold!
"Finally, I found you!"
Ye Qiu watched Charles walk away in silence. He wanted to look away, but the old lady did not row the boat away.
Charles walked to the other end of the road, and in front of him appeared mountains made of piles of gold coins!
Countless treasure chests were piled up like trash here, filled with various gold jewelry and luxurious items rarely seen elsewhere!
"Hahaha, money, endless money! Hahaha, I will buy my own fleet, I will hire a thousand sailors!"
"No, ten thousand sailors! Get another thousand big ships, buy another island. It’s endless, I can never spend it all!"
"Hahaha!"
Charles dived into the pile of gold, listening to the sound of coins jingling. He felt happier than ever before in his life!
"Unlimited money, money that can never be spent in a lifetime, hahaha!"
After a lot of effort, Charles felt tired. He looked towards the edge of Treasure Island, where there was only a small boat.
Charles was surprised, "How many gold coins can this small boat hold?!"
Rather than calling it a small boat, it was more like a small canoe.
Charles was a little angry. He loaded boxes of gold coins onto the boat, one after another, but he always felt it wasn’t enough.
"Just this little amount, how can it be enough to buy an entire island?!"
"My fleet of ships is not enough either!"
Charles kept pouring box after box of gold coins into the small boat until it couldn’t hold any more.
Feeling unsatisfied, he stuffed his pockets full of gold coins.
With a sad look on his face, he stepped onto the small wooden boat, but as soon as his front foot landed, the back foot caused the boat to flip over and sink!
Splash!
Charles didn’t have time to struggle, he plunged headfirst into the water because the coins on him were too heavy, preventing him from swimming up!
"No… I… gulp gulp…"
Seeing this scene, the old lady on the boat rowed away.
"This place is called The Grave of the Greedy."
"A penny for a life, boat full means life gone."
。。。
The boat continued sliding forward, with the old lady not speaking a word throughout the journey, and Ye Qiu remaining silent as well.
The Grave of the Greedy," he seemed to have heard of it from a past life.
If you only take a few coins and leave, you will row past a certain point on the boat and row into The Eye of the Death God.
This is a better result than going to the Eye of the Death God.
Of course, there is much more than just the Land of Gold inside the Eye of the Death God; there is also the Land of Dreams.
But these are all traps disguised in beautiful clothing.
And the place Ye Qiu is going to is the core of The Eye of the Death God.
Hero Cemetery.
Or, one could say, the cemetery of heroes.
。。。
As the mist slowly cleared in front of Ye Qiu, what appeared before him was a path that he could not see clearly.
The old lady turned to look at Ye Qiu and said, "You’ve arrived, take it slow."
Ye Qiu nodded and then slowly stepped onto this path.
Ye Qiu didn’t know how long he had walked, it felt like just a moment, yet also like a month had passed.
When he reached the end of the road, he saw a very broken-down small village in front of him.
Many farmers lived here, with clearly defined roles, all of them wearing friendly smiles.
The moment Ye Qiu stepped into this place, he suddenly felt something strange in his body, but he couldn’t quite explain what it was.
It was only when he saw an old man wearing a straw hat, sitting on a rock, that he realized what was different.
"Welcome to the Hidden Village, the Tarnished."
Ye Qiu looked at the old man, who seemed to have no strength at all, just like an ordinary person.
"Who are you?"
The old man laughed, "Just a half-dead old man, but I used to be a the Tarnished."
Ye Qiu was slightly surprised, "You are the Tarnished?"
The old man slowly took off his hat, revealing one eye shining with bright blue light, "My name is Mertz."
Hearing this name, Ye Qiu’s heart suddenly trembled.
General Moon Thief Mertz.
Eighth-level Great Holy Domain!
Auzo’s Third Commander of the Sixth Division!
Just came up and bumped into a Holy Realm?
Ye Qiu didn’t dare to say anything more, and hurriedly passed by the old man into the village.
He’s looking for an NPC here, a very important NPC to him.
Ye Qiu was walking cautiously, but unexpectedly kicked a beggar. The beggar turned to look at him, "Outsider, it’s been a while since I’ve seen an outsider…"
Ye Qiu swallowed nervously, "Um, may I ask, what’s your name?"
The beggar pointed at himself, "I’m just an old beggar, but if you really must know my name…"
"Latain."
General Shattered Star Latain.
Another Rank Eight!
What kind of creatures are here?!
。。。
