After gathering his thoughts, Ye Qiu glanced at the boss.
"When did these people outside get here?"
Ye Qiu asked directly, getting straight to the point.
"Them?" The boss looked outside, "About a week ago. At first, a group ca, and since then, a few groups have been coming every day!"
The boss answered without hesitation.
"Do you know their purpose for coming here?"
Ye Qiu asked again.
"Heh heh!"
Upon hearing this question, the innkeeper chuckled.
"You're asking the right person! I heard they're looking for a bear! Recently, a white bear has appeared in our area!
I don't know what's attracting them, but they've all flocked here!"
"Looking for a bear?"
Ye Qiu nodded!
It seed he had indeed guessed correctly; these people were all after that white bear.
"Do they have any leads yet?"
Ye Qiu asked once more.
"Not at the mont! However, the first batch of people who ca has already hired a few hunters here, searching day and night! But there's been no news so far!"
"Thank you!"
After the boss finished speaking, Ye Qiu expressed his thanks.
Money certainly makes the world go round.
Three hundred in cash had gotten this boss to spill everything Ye Qiu wanted to know.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ye Qiu went directly upstairs, planning to rest well for the night and make plans the next day.
Just as he was going upstairs, three people walked into the inn entrance.
Ye Qiu didn't notice them, but they caught sight of Ye Qiu imdiately.
These three were the ones previously tied up in the wilderness by Ye Qiu.
When they saw Ye Qiu, their eyes twitched involuntarily.
"It's that kid again!"
The bearded leader glared viciously at Ye Qiu's back.
Although he was very afraid of Ye Qiu, now he hated Ye Qiu to the core!
If they had been tied with ropes instead of twigs, they would have frozen to death in the wilderness!
They were filled with indignation but had no recourse against him.
Because the three of them were no match for Ye Qiu at all.
"No way, we can't let it go just like this!"
The bearded leader's eyes were full of resentnt as he cursed fiercely.
"Boss, we must teach this kid a hard lesson!"
The other two bearded n also hated Ye Qiu deeply, and they shouted in agreent.
"But, we're not his match!"
Although the two bearded n hated Ye Qiu, they were well aware of their disparity, and they weren't in the sa league.
Moreover, they had witnessed firsthand Ye Qiu beating a pack of Snow Wolves with his bare hands.
Such a terrifying person, adding a few more of them wouldn't make a difference!
"Heh heh!"
The bearded leader sneered after listening, glancing back at a few scattered black shadows standing by the roadside.
"Do you see them? These are rcenary elites from various countries! With them here, dealing with that kid will be a piece of cake, won't it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other two beca excited!
Aweso! It feels so great!
A feeling of sweet revenge surged in their hearts.
Early the next morning, Ye Qiu was woken by the noise downstairs.
He opened the window to look outside.
The not-too-big and not-too-small street was already crowded with people.
All the rcenary elites in town gathered in groups of three or five.
In their hands, they held various lethal weapons.
"What's their deal?"
Ye Qiu went directly downstairs and asked the boss.
"The hunters ca back at dawn and said they found the white bear's lair. This group must be planning to head there!"
The innkeeper didn't hide anything; he was well-inford.
Ye Qiu nodded, looked at the rcenaries who had already set off, went upstairs to say goodbye to Lin Xiaoxiao, and quickly followed.
This group, after all, consisted of well-trained rcenary elites, and since there was a lead on the white bear, they moved extrely fast.
Ye Qiu hurried to catch up with them.
After about an hour or so.
Ye Qiu followed this group to halfway up the mountain.
The mountain path was not easy to walk, rugged and uneven, with snow past knee-high.
Due to the heavy snow, the place was a ss, with broken branches scattered everywhere.
Winding left and right, following the footprints left by the crowd, Ye Qiu finally stopped in a relatively secluded place halfway up the mountain.
In front, a crowd had already gathered.
Almost all the rcenary elites from the town last night had gathered here.
They all held weapons in their hands.
At the forefront of the crowd, there appeared a cave about half a man's height.
The cave was covered with a layer of snow, making it hard to discover if you didn't look carefully.
However, the rcenaries were all pausing outside the entrance.
Several groups divided into a few batches, holding guns and pointing at each other, glaring with hostility.
"We discovered this first, so naturally it's ours! Please leave quickly!"
The leader of one group said from the front.
"Whoever finds it first owns it? What a joke!"
The other group wasn't willing to back down either.
They all stared at each other with hostility, not yielding an inch.
For a mont, they were all stuck at the cave entrance, caught between a rock and a hard place.
"Enough squabbling, this place now belongs to us, the Death God! You bunch of bastards better get lost quickly!"
The speaker was an eight-foot-tall man, with a face full of fierce flesh.
He had a long scar on his face, which looked terrifying.
Ye Qiu had also heard a little about this person.
This man was the leader of the Death God rcenary Corps.
The Death God rcenary Corps was quite famous in the world.
To be precise, they were infamous!
As long as there was money, they committed almost every conceivable atrocity.
Plus, each of Death God's rcenaries was strong, which only fueled their arrogance.
All the rcenaries present were stunned when they heard him speak.
Though no one was convinced, even if they reluctantly let a duck they had in hand fly away,
they had to admit that the Death God Corps was the strongest on site.
Despite their imnse reluctance, they didn't dare to voice it.
"Still not leaving? Do you want us to make a move?"
Seeing that the crowd was unmoved, the Death God Corps' leader spoke again.
He was extrely dismissive, not taking anyone present seriously.
As soon as these words were out, the several groups blocking the cave entrance instantly lost their temper.
They reluctanctly took two steps back.
Seeing their deanor, the Death God Corps' leader smiled with satisfaction.
"You three, please wait outside for a mont. After we're done here, we will need you to guide us down the mountain! Once we're down, there'll be benefits for you!"
He instructed the three people standing beside him.
Ye Qiu was not unfamiliar with these three; they were the three bearded n he had tied up in the wilderness before.
"Not dead yet?"
Ye Qiu murmured to himself in confusion.
How lucky are these three bearded n? They aren't dead after all...
