When he heard the name "Lake of Stars", Lucio, who was at the back of the team, interrupted: "I heard the name 'Lake of Stars' from my dad. He said it was very dangerous there."

"Alas! Who says it's not the case?

We have heard about Stardust Lake for a long time. We originally thought it was just a legend, but unexpectedly we encountered it..."

Lilith sighed and began to tell Sean and Lucio what happened when they entered the depths of the Elf Forest.

...

The morning before yesterday, they followed the traces left by the necromancer into the depths of the Elf Forest.

Because the Necromancer brought a large number of undead troops and left a lot of traces, so after a day and night of chasing, they finally caught up with the Necromancer deep in the Elf Forest, and a big battle broke out.

This necromancer is only at the elementary level of Silver. Although he has the blessing of the undead army, he is no match for the elite team led by the two captains of intermediate silver mercenaries.

Moreover, Sean's power of holy light was very restrained by the necromancer. In the end, they eliminated the necromancer at the cost of two bronze-level warriors.

After wiping out the necromancer, Lilith and Sean decided to take the necromancer's head back to Hetan Town for some supplies and then return to Jon City to receive the reward.

But instead of going back the same way they came, they decided to take a straight line back to Hetan Town.

After all, they had taken many detours in the process of hunting down the necromancer, and taking a straight line would save more time.

.....

It was evening, and on their way back, they found a beautiful lake blocking their way.

This lake shines like a huge sapphire, and the water is clear and transparent, like a beautiful picture.

The mercenaries were exhausted after traveling for a day and night. Coupled with the joy of victory, some of the mercenaries wanted to go to the lake to drink water, take a bath, and rest.

But Sean and Lilith thought of the legend of "Lake of Stars" and knew what kind of danger lay beneath the seemingly beautiful appearance in front of them, so they hurriedly wanted to leave with the mercenaries.

But it's too late.

Just when they were about to retreat, a huge roar came from the nearby jungle. Everyone was dizzy by the huge roar, even Lilith and Sean were a little overwhelmed.

With a roar, a giant brown bear jumped out of the jungle on the side and appeared in front of the mercenaries.

The giant brown bear was glowing with golden light, and it was clearly a gold-level monster!

…

Lilith and Sean knew they were outmatched. Even their group combined could not defeat the giant bear in front of them.

When disaster strikes, they fly away. Lilith and Sean abandon their companions and start running away.

But the gold-level giant bear did not let Lilith and Sean go, and instead released a powerful spell - Mass Sting - on them.

Lilith and Sean were lucky. They quickly moved to the edge of the group spell, barely escaped the attack of the gold-level giant bear at the cost of minor injuries, and escaped from the shore of Star Lake.

But their subordinates may not be so lucky, and they all become dinner for the golden-level giant bears.

…

Because both Sean and Lilith were slightly injured and smelled of blood, they were attacked by many powerful predators on the way back, and eventually became seriously injured like they are now.

But after what happened in the Lake of Stars, they did not dare to walk in a straight line, but returned the same way until they met Sean and Lucio.

...

Lilith's story ends here.

After hearing their experiences, Sean suddenly realized: "So that's it! So, the path we are taking now is the path that the necromancer takes to enter the Elf Forest?"

"That's right." Lilith was slightly startled and nodded.

Hearing this, Lucio also suddenly realized: "No wonder we didn't encounter any wild beasts today. It turns out that the wild beasts along the way were all destroyed by the necromancer!"

Sean walked to Sean and Lilith and comforted: "Now that things have reached this point, we can only accept the situation and accept it. You have done nothing wrong. After all, if you don't run away, you can only become a gold-level giant."

Bear's dinner. Go back and make amends to the families of these fallen mercenaries!

But then again, how did you break into the Lake of Stars? Don’t you know where the Lake of Stars is?"

Lilith shook her head and explained: "The Lake of Stars does not have a specific location. It is said that this is an illusion arranged by a saint-level elf magician. It contains her life's wealth, no matter where it is in the Elf Forest.

It is possible to encounter the Lake of Stars anywhere.

The most common route our four mercenary groups take to enter the Forest of Elves is to go west to the Magic Academy, where they enter the Forest of Elves. In the past, the Lake of Stars was discovered by mercenaries on the west side.

However, the probability of encountering the Lake of Stars is very low. The last time there was news about the Lake of Stars was fifteen years ago. Many strong men of the gold level and even the sky level have entered the Elf Forest to look for the Lake of Stars, but none of them found it.

turn up.

So we can’t blame us entirely for encountering the Lake of Stars this time, we can only say that we were very unlucky.”

After hearing Lilith's words, Sean immediately became alert.

It seems that he should be careful when leveling in the future. After all, he will go deep into the Elf Forest for a long time to level up. If he encounters the Lake of Stars, he must avoid it as soon as possible.

After all, there are gold-level monsters outside the Lake of Stars, and there are no powerful beings inside.

As for the lifetime wealth of the holy elf magician, Sean is not very rare.

He has a system close to him, even if it is an artifact, he takes it very lightly.

...

...

Talking about the Lake of Stars, the group walked out of the Elf Forest and came to the edge of Hetan Town.

It wasn't until they walked out of the Elf Forest that Sean and Lilith breathed a sigh of relief. The appearance of the Lake of Stars had also brought them serious psychological trauma, and now they were finally safe.

…

After returning to Riverbank Town, Sean asked his uninjured entourage and Lucio to return to the castle first and ordered the chef to make dinner.

Although they only brought back some wolf meat today, there was a lot of wild boar and bison meat stored in the castle, which was enough to eat.

Sean took the injured Sean, Lilith, Windsor and the Silver Squire to the town center to find Anduin to treat his injuries.

On the way to the town center, the butler Henry also came over after hearing the news, and they exchanged pleasantries again.

Sean looked at Sean as he walked: "Can your arm really be cured after it is broken? The priest in our town only has a black iron level, and it is impossible to heal such a serious injury like yours."

Sean smiled reluctantly and replied: "Your Highness Sean, Bishop Benjamin can cure my injury after I return to Yoon City.
