To avoid any accidents, Welsh and Liz put on their jackets and followed the team.

Looking at their surroundings, Welsh sighed more than once. Borneo was indeed a treasure trove of animals and plants on Aquamarine. It was extremely dangerous.

A withered vine by the side of the road might be the disguise of a poisonous snake. Two meters away, there might be a black panther hiding in the bushes, a rotten wood in the river might be a giant man-eating crocodile…

Danger was hidden in almost everything around them, and the terrain was complicated…

As they advanced, they were all very careful and did not dare to be careless.

“Guide, what should we do next… Eh, the guide is gone?”

Just when they reached the junction of a cross road and did not know which direction to go, they suddenly realized that the guide who was walking behind the team had disappeared.

Everyone was stunned when they saw this

Borneo’s terrain was complicated. Without a guide, even if they completed the mission, they wouldn’t be able to get out.

“Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da…”

“Ah…ah…ah…”

Just when everyone was stunned, a gunshot suddenly sounded.

A group of unfamiliar mercenaries suddenly appeared from the surrounding bushes.

Looking at the mercenaries and bodyguards around them, falling helplessly and only a few of them were still alive, Liz and Welsh were stunned.

Just as the two of them were stunned, a tall and strong woman walked out from the group of mercenaries who suddenly appeared. She held a gun in her hand and looked at Welsh who was standing in the middle of the corpse with a smug expression.

“Aren’t you a very powerful man? Aren’t you very good at fighting? Why don’t you come out and beat me up now?”

That’s right, this person was the mercenary Lynn who was kicked out of Welsh’s team in the beginning.

“Now that you have fallen into my hands, I must let you know how powerful I am. Otherwise, others will think that my ability isn’t good enough!”

After saying that, she pulled out the short knife on her leg and slowly walked toward Welsh.

When she saw that, Liz immediately said angrily, “What are you doing? Don’t you want the reward?”

Hearing Liz’s words, Lynn immediately turned to look at her with a sneer.

“Do you really think that I’m a mercenary you hired to earn your reward? To tell you the truth, someone paid double the price to buy your life!”

“So this time, not only can I get the blood orchid and the bounty, but I can also get a ransom and a large bounty. Most importantly… I can also get such a top-notch man like you.”

After saying that, Lynn turned her gaze to Welsh, who was at the side, and the desire in her eyes was self-evident.

Welsh looked at Lynn, who had a smug look on her face. Then he suddenly opened his mouth to ask, “The bodyguard, who was missing, actually found out about your collusion and was silenced by you, right?”

Hearing Welsh’s words, Lynn was also stunned for a moment. Then she bluntly admitted, “Yes! That’s right. It was us who killed her. She found out that we were talking in secret. If it wasn’t for the fact that the two of you are still useful to us, I would have sent both of you to see her just now.”

After saying that, Lynn immediately picked up the gun in her hand and urged Welsh and Liz, who was beside him, to walk in the direction where the blood orchid was growing.

Welsh looked at the bodyguard lying beside him and the gun injury on the back of the corpse. Without saying anything, he followed Lynn’s instructions, supporting Liz, who was beside him, and walked forward.

He didn’t choose to resist. Firstly, his current training level hadn’t breakthrough yet, so the gun was still a great threat to him. Secondly, there was another burden beside him, Liz. He needed to ensure her safety.

He had already eaten all the medicinal herbs the night before, so he only needed the last blood orchid to upgrade to a junior mage.

And when he became a junior mage, even if all the mercenaries had guns, they would not be his match.

…

After about two hours of travelling, they finally saw a streak of red on the cliff of the canyon in the distance.

This was the goal of this trip, the blood orchid.

However, Lynn and the others did not immediately go over to take the bounty target. Instead, they pointed their guns at Welsh and Liz.

“Go, take that thing off.”

In the middle of the canyon rift, there was only a rotten piece of wood connecting the blood orchid and them.

Although the width of the wood was very wide, the degree of decay was really daunting.

If a person walked on it, he would be in danger of falling if he was not careful.

Lynn could not let her own people take the risk, so she turned her gun toward Welsh and said coldly, “Aren’t you very skilled? Go and get the blood orchid for me.”

Hearing Lynn’s words, Welsh’s eyes moved. This arrangement was exactly what he wanted.

He had been worried about how he could get the blood orchid under everyone’s eyes, but now Lynn had given him this chance personally.

Without saying anything, Welsh was ready to walk toward the rotten wood.

“Don’t go…”

Suddenly, a pair of hands grabbed his arm. Welsh turned around and saw that it was Liz.

She shook her head, her eyes filled with worry.

Welsh patted her hands and said in a low voice, “Don’t worry, everything will be fine.”

After saying that, Welsh freed his arm from Liz’s hands and walked towards the blood orchid.

When he was at the Lancaster Continent, Welsh had often trained his balance. The rotten wood in front of him was nothing in his eyes at all.

Without stopping, he walked straight up.

“Crack…”

However, this rotten wood had already decayed. Although it did not break after Welsh walked on it, many pieces still fell off.

“Thud…”

The wooden block fell into the water of the valley, making waves of water sounds.

His eyes moved along with the falling wooden block.

Suddenly, Welsh noticed a black sharp thing on a protrusion on the opposite cliff. Looking at that thing, he suddenly felt that it looked familiar.

But this was the depths of Borneo. Welsh had never been here before, so how could it look familiar?

So he took a few steps forward, wanting to see what it was.

He narrowed his eyes and looked carefully.

It was the head of the harpoon, the harpoon head that Welsh had used to pierce into the big fish’s body!

The harpoon head was in the big fish’s body, and the big fish had been eaten by another giant monster.

Looking at the harpoon head, Welsh suddenly broke out in cold sweat. A terrifying thought appeared in his mind.

Now that the harpoon head was here, it would mean that the giant beast that had eaten the big fish was here!

A bloodthirsty giant beast was watching them from all directions!

Thinking of this, Welsh instantly turned his gaze and looked around. He wanted to find the ferocious giant beast that was hiding in the dark immediately.

Finally, he saw the giant beast that had been hiding around them in the river more than ten meters below where the blood orchid bloomed.

This sight made Welsh break out in cold sweat.

It was actually a giant reticulated python that was more than ten meters long!

It had jet-black skin, strong muscles and a body that was as thick as an oil barrel.

All these characteristics indicated that it was an invincible hunter.

The giant python placed half of its body in the water and entangled itself with the other pythons.

It was mating!!!

What made Welsh even more surprised was that not only was the giant python mating, it would also raise its head to look at the blood orchid on the cliff from time to time, its eyes filled with desire.

Welsh felt that the size and aura of this python was comparable to that of a senior magical beast from the Lancaster Continent.

Even an intermediate mage would not dare to provoke a high-level magical beast, not to mention that Welsh could only be considered an apprentice mage at the moment.

“Hurry up, what are you waiting for? Do you want to get shot?”

Just as he felt a moment of hesitation, Lynn spoke from behind him. She raised the gun in her hand and kept threatening Welsh.

Welsh looked at the python at the bottom of the valley and then at Lynn behind him.

If he advanced, he might die. If he retreated, he would be shot…

Just as Welsh was in a dilemma, he turned his head and finally thought of a solution.

Standing on the rotten wood, he carefully approached the blood orchid…

Finally, he stopped only two meters away from the blood orchid.

At this position, he would not attract the attention of the python, but he could also instantly pluck the blood orchid and turn around.

Welsh looked at the python that was more than ten meters below him, waiting…

Finally, at the moment the python turned around, he rushed forward and plucked the blood orchid in front of him.

After plucking it, he did not carry it with him. Instead, he threw it behind his back.

When Lynn and the others saw the blood orchid flying towards them, they immediately reached out to catch it.

When the python turned around and saw that the blood orchid was not where it was, it was stunned at first. Then, it saw the blood orchid flying above the canyon.

Seeing this scene, it immediately gave up on its mating partner and jumped out of the water.

Welsh, who was lying on the rotten wood, finally saw the full appearance of the giant beast.

It had a black snake skin and a body as thick as an oil barrel. Its body was full of scars from fighting with all kinds of fierce beasts. The most important thing was its body length… It was at least twenty meters long!

Meanwhile, Lynn, who was on the other side, immediately began to laugh loudly after grabbing the blood orchid in her hand.

“Hahaha…I’m the biggest winner. I’m rich!”

She laughed as she raised the gun in her hand and aimed it at Liz, ready to pull the trigger.

“Goodbye, Madam. You’re no longer of any use… er…”

The python saw that Lynn was holding the blood orchid in her hand and immediately opened its mouth wide and swallowed her.

“Holy shit…”

When the other mercenaries saw their boss being swallowed by the beast that suddenly appeared, they were all stunned.

“Da, da, da, da, da, da, da…”

They immediately reacted and raised their guns to aim at the beast in front of them.

They wanted to kill the beast in front of them and avenge their boss.

“Clang, clang, clang…”

The bullets hit the python’s body, but it seemed to have no effect at all. They only picked up a shower of sparks.

But the impact still made the python hurt a little.

“Roar…”

The python roared loudly and rushed towards the mercenaries who shot at it.

It wanted to kill all those who hurt it!

However, before anyone noticed it, Welsh had already carried the blood orchid and escaped with Liz in the direction of the periphery.
