"Lin."
Lin Mo walked to the hotel entrance and suddenly heard a surprised voice from the side.
Turning his head, he saw two n and one woman walking over, unexpectedly the Leader of the Snow Lion rcenary Group, Ward, Deputy Commander Kro, and Yina.
"Brother Lin."
Yina's little face showed a hint of surprise and excitent, smiling like a flower, she called sweetly.
"Why are you here?" Lin Mo asked with a smile.
It was unexpected to et mbers of the Snow Lion rcenary Group here by such chance.
"Today, Young Master Lan Bo is inviting us for dinner. Our Snow Lion rcenary Group belongs to the Lanbo Family, so we ca." Ward said, "Lin, are you also an adventurer of the Lanbo Family?" "No, but I'm here for a al too." Lin Mo replied calmly, though he felt sowhat puzzled in his heart, it seems like the Lanbo Family has considerable influence in Snow City.
The rcenary Guild building stood amidst the wind and snow, reaching three stories high. The first level was the location for rcenary groups and Golden Masters, alley market transactions. The second level was for rcenary Guild internal staff work, while the third level was only accessible to the figures of the highest rank within the rcenary Guild.
A man wearing black light armor stood on the stairs, heading to the entrance of the third level, the entrance resembled a curtain of water, with layers of ripples shimring in the air, attempting to barge in would result in an attack.
The man took out a hexagonal black stone tablet and inserted it into the shimring water curtain, which fluctuated briefly before dissipating.
Only then did the man stride in, stopping at the door of an office.
"Zhan Long, what are you here for?"
Before the man could speak, a slightly high-pitched voice from the office sounded, making the man at the door lower his head.
"Lord Jins, it's about the Ice Pearl, today I encountered..."
"Co in."
The voice from the room interrupted the man's words.
If Lin Mo were here, he would have recognized the man at the door as the vendor he t buying the Ice Pearl at the alley market.
Push open the door, it was a luxurious office, with high-grade mahogany floors, overlaid with a Persian handmade wool carpet, and from the center top of the room, hung a radiant crystal chandelier.
A burly man with a terrifying scar on his face was sitting on the sofa, holding a glass of amber liquor.
"Subordinate Zhan Long, greetings to Lord Jins."
Zhan Long walked in, imdiately kneeled on one knee, lowered his head, showing extre respect.
"Speak."
Jins raised his glass, tilted his head and took a sip, his voice very calm, subtly conveying the authority of a supervisor.
Zhan Long imdiately recounted the Matter of Lin Mo purchasing the Ice Pearl and a series of materials.
"Oh, purchasing items worth a hundred and ten thousand top-grade spiritual stones at once, quite a grand gesture."
Jins fiddled with the glass in his hand, spoke indifferently.
"Based on my assessnt, this person shouldn't be commonly seen as one of the prominent family scions of Snow City, yet he spends so lavishly, suggesting he's likely a core mber of an outside family or force."
Zhan Long continued.
"The Ice Pearl is a treasure I obtained by hunting the Ice River Mammoth, not many have seen it, for him to co straight for the Ice Pearl either ans he recognizes its value or has seen it before..."
Jins said, eyes in which flas seed to rise, capable of scorching the air, making the surrounding atmosphere grow hot.
"Send soone to investigate his background." Jins waved his hand and said.
"Yes, sir." Zhan Long bowed, stepped back several paces, then quickly turned and left the room.
Jins casually tossed the glass, enveloped by energy, it landed on the nearby wine rack, "Interesting, could the treasure in the Fourth Life Forbidden Zone really have been obtained by that kid?"
…
Inside the hotel.
Lin Mo and Ward, Yina, and Kro stepped into the hotel together, the hotel was divided into an inner and outer layer, the inner layer was accessible only to rcenary group leaders with strength and status in Snow City, while the outer layer was for those with little status.
"Only level rcenary groups can enter inside, I wonder when our Snow Lion rcenary Group will be able to go inside." Ward said holding a glass, standing on the outside lawn with Lin Mo and others, watching those entering inside, eyes exhibiting a trace of envy.
"It's the leader of the Ice Myth rcenary Group, Keli Keli... and Jonas of the Fire Dragon rcenary Group..." Yina blinked, observed those entering the inner layer excitedly counting off these nas.
"We will have our day, our Snow Lion rcenary Group will make it inside too." Kro drank a mouthful of wine, eyes shining brightly.
"Then you all must work hard and strive." Lin Mo grinned widely. From the chat with Ward just now, Lin Mo learned that the Lanbo Family is one of the ten major families of Snow City, with many rcenary groups affiliated with this family, among which the Snow Lion rcenary Group is one, but the Snow Lion rcenary Group is only a level rcenary group, unqualified to enter Lanbo
Family interior receptions.
"Leader Ward, I'd like to ask you sothing."
Lin Mo opened his mouth.
"Lin, our relationship is such that there's no need for pleasantries, anything I know, I'll surely tell you." Ward, this rugged man, laughed heartily.
On the Ice Plateau, if it weren't for Lin Mo's intervention, the Snow Lion rcenary Group would've been wiped out by the Knight rcenary Corps Group and Heim.
"What kind of existence is the War God Temple?"
Lin Mo had heard the na War God Temple several tis, yet the concept of it was still sowhat vague to him.
Ward and Carlo both hesitated, amazed that Lin Mo could accept the Lanbo Family's invitation to the hotel, yet not know about the War God Temple.
"Brother Lin, I'll tell you." Yina jumped in, her eyes flashing brightly.
"Oh, you tell ."
"The War God Temple is essentially the core organization of the rcenary Guild, taphorically, the rcenary Guild is like a company, and the War God Temple is akin to the company's managent."
"There are ten War Gods in the War God Temple, each one a super powerhouse recognized by all, and these ten War Gods are also the leaders of Snow City's ten major families, for instance, the Clan Leader of the Lanbo Family is one of the mbers of the War God Temple."
"I see." Lin Mo nodded, his face showing a dawning realization, no wonder the Lanbo Family was so influential, turns out the leader of the Lanbo Family, probably Lanbo's father, is a mber of the War God Temple.
"Among the ten War Gods, three are the most powerful, known as counciln, legendary figures of the rcenary Guild."
Yina supplented, her lively eyes concealed a profound admiration when talking about the War God Temple.
Along with Ward and Carlo's faces revealing a hint of yearning.
"Lin, everyone in the teams of the entire Snow City rcenary Corps desires to enter the War God Temple, but unfortunately... it's too challenging." Ward frowned, shook his head.
"Lin, don't take Ward's words lightly, his age may be advanced, but his ambition has never waned, his ongoing goal is to join the War God Temple." Carlo joked.
"Striving, it's never too late." Lin Mo laughed heartily.
A wonderful continuation tomorrow.
