Rebirth of the thief who roamed around the world (BOOK 4)

Chapter 684 - Legendary Priests

Nie Yan arrived at the base of the Holy Mountain. He headed toward the coordinates his subordinates reported. The bone dragon was spotted flying southwest.

The Thieves from Asskickers United were tailing Qin Han and Necromancer Vorderman. Several of them were killed by the latter after entering within 500 meters of the two. So, they no longer dared to approach too close, maintaining a distance of at least 1,000 meters.

Like this, it was impossible to get a good read on Qin Han's exact location. They could only report the general direction he was heading.

As Nie Yan made his way forward, he bumped into several Thieves from Asskickers United.

"Boss!" the Thieves greeted excitedly.

"Where did that Necromancer go?" Nie Yan gazed into the distance. The forest up ahead was shrouded by a dense fog. It would be difficult to find a path forward.

"We lost track of those two around here, but that bone dragon is over there!" One of the Thieves pointed at the peak of the mountain.

Nie Yan gazed up at the top of the mountain. There, a black dot flew in the air before disappearing behind the peak.

"You guys can return to Calore," Nie Yan said. All the monsters in the area up ahead were over Level 100. Since none of these Thieves had reached Level 100 yet, they would likely meet with danger if they headed any deeper. It was better to relieve them of their duties and let them get back to levelling instead.

"Understood! Boss, you be careful too."

"Yeah, that Necromancer is dangerous!"

...

Hearing Nie Yan telling them to go back, the Thieves voiced their concerns. They understood they wouldn't be of any help. Vorderman was too powerful.

Nie Yan entered stealth and dashed through the forest. After passing a swampy area, the Holy Stone in his inventory started glowing with a bright and gentle light.

Nie Yan's heart trembled. There was a piece of the Tyrant Abak Set here!

Nie Yan looked around. All he saw was a dense forest shrouded by thick fog. He could hardly make out a thing. If he wanted to search for that piece of the Tyrant Abak Set, he would have to give up on pursuing Qin Han.

Qin Han was probably planning something major for him to abandon his skeleton army and come with Necromancer Vorderman here!

Thinking it over, Nie Yan recorded down the coordinates to this location. He would come back to look for the piece of the Tyrant Abak Set some other time.

Nie Yan set off at his fastest speed, flitting through the forest.

About 15 minutes later, Nie Yan arrived halfway up the mountain. He saw the enormous bone dragon in the sky. It looked like a small dot from this far away. It circled in the air for a moment before slowly descending into the fog covered summit.

Nie Yan knitted his brows. Why did the bone dragon land over there?

In the previous timeline, Nie Yan had visited the summit of the Holy Mountain. However, he did so only after the Vengeance of the Undead event concluded. He found nothing but ruins. Rumours had it that a shrine once stood there, but had been destroyed early on in the expansion.

Thinking to this point, Nie Yan's eyes lit up in realization. Qin Han's appearance here absolutely wasn't a coincidence. He was probably plotting something huge! Despite knowing the great dangers involved, Nie Yan still decided to go over there for a look anyway.
