The legendary warrior novel Chapter 1229

"Understood, sir!" Ricky, Ashley, Hayes, and Guillermo nodded at Lloyd before they all turned expectantly at Mordechai, waiting for further instructions.

"Guys, I just want to let you know that this mission has something to do with me, and our vice leader has graciously done me this favor," Mordechai said.

"Don't worry. I will give you a handsome reward in return after we are done with this.

I can't reveal too much for now. But I promise that I'll tell you everything I can once we get there, so don't feel hesitant or uncomfortable.

Of course, you can also refuse to accept this mission. It's all up to you. I will respect your decision whether you choose to go or not."

"Ha-ha! What are you talking about? You are now our holy son, and you've given us a direct order. How can we defy you?"

Hayes responded with a kind smile.

"Hey, if you don't stop making fun of me, I'm afraid that we can't be friends anymore,"

Mordechai muttered lowly as a small frown marred the stark features of his face. But as a matter of fact, he did not really get upset.

Hayes didn't seem to take his words seriously, as he let out boisterous and joyful laughter in response. "Ha-ha!"

At this point, Guillermo cut into their conversation.

"I'm sorry, guys, but I have already agreed to explore a secret land with some others. I'm afraid I can't come with you this time," he said.

"No, no, it's okay. Since you set that appointment ahead of time, you should attend to it,"

Mordechai responded lightly.

Ricky, Ashley, and Hayes decided to continue with Mordecai's mission, and they agreed to meet each other outside the wood branch in two days.

Before they took their leave, Lloyd said to Ricky through telepathy, "Your mission is to help Mordechai's family. I hope that you can try to befriend the Desolate Sorcery tribe's members and get to know them as much as you can.

Maybe you can't change the fact that they would become cruel once they activate their blood power. However, it would be best if you can dissuade them from hurting other creatures."

"I understand, sir. I'll try my best,"

Ricky sincerely promised.

And then, two days later, Ricky, Ashley, Hayes, and Mordechai met outside the wood branch. Of course, Amelia and Tina joined Ricky.

"Mordechai, do you mind if I bring my friends with me?" Ricky asked politely, knowing that it was the tactful thing to do.

"Ha-ha! Of course, I don't mind at all!" Mordechai replied with an amused smile, while Hayes chuckled quietly.

They felt equal parts envious and entertained because they thought that Ricky couldn't bear to part with his lovely girlfriends. On the other hand, Ashley threw a cold sneer and snapped at Ricky.

"Huh? Did someone forget that we are not going on a vacation but an important mission? Tsk. It seems like the weak ones cannot help but be a burden to us," she said sarcastically.

But Ricky simply ignored her outburst, and Amelia and Tina opted to follow his example.

That only made Ashley more furious because Ricky didn't even acknowledge her insult, which embarrassed her.

Before long, Mordechai and the five of them set off for the edge of the Middle Land.

The endless mountain came into their view soon after they had reached the edge, a vast and picturesque sight.

"Mordechai, does your family live in the endless mountain?" Hayes asked curiously while gazing at the mountain in front of them.

"No. We live in the Sealed Land," Mordechai immediately replied.

"What?! You live in the Sealed Land!" When Hayes heard Mordechai's words, confusion and astonishment flashed in his eyes.

"The Sealed Land?" Ricky repeated, for he was also quite perplexed.

"Is there some connection between the Desolate Sorcery tribe and the so-called Sealed Land?" Ricky asked the Dragon Intent Grass in his bafflement.

"It looks like the Desolate Sorcery tribe's members had been sealed somewhere. That is probably why no one had seen them for eras.

"But as far as I know, no creature from the Sealed Land could escape because it is impossible to break those arrays. Even holy beings have trouble breaking them. So, how did you get out of there? I heard that no creature could reach the Sage Level in there, for their realms were weakened when they were trapped inside.

They are exceedingly limited, to the point that all living creatures are prohibited from reaching high realms,"

Hayes blurted out in confusion.

"You are right. It is indeed impossible for the creatures in the Sealed Land to leave that place," Mordechai responded.

"However, ten years ago, a tiny rift appeared on the dome that the arrays had formed."

"What?!"

Everyone was stunned by what Mordechai had revealed.

At this point, Mordechai admitted his real identity to his companions, and he also filled them in on how he managed to leave the Sealed Land.

They learned that he was actually the young master of the Desolate Sorcery tribe.

And since Ricky and Ashley were already familiar with the Desolate Sorcery tribe and Mordechai's connection to them, Hayes was the only one caught by surprise when he found out Mordechai's real identity. Actually, Mordechai had no intention of keeping them in the dark. He thought it would be a good gesture to tell them everything about him since he was the one who asked for their help.

The Desolate Sorcery tribe was the most powerful tribe in the past starting when the world was created. All its members could still remember the glory of their tribe, and they dreamed of restoring their tribe to its former glory.

Unfortunately, they had been imprisoned in the Sealed Land for eras and couldn't get out. As a result, they had gradually forgotten their dream.

But a big change suddenly took place a decade ago, in the area where the Desolate Sorcery tribe were trapped, and a rift appeared on the array.

This fissure opened the way to the continent.

And its appearance rekindled the fire in the hearts of the Desolate Sorcery tribe's members. They believed that they could help their tribe rise again once they returned to the continent.

However, to their disappointment, they discovered that it was a lot harder to pass through the rift than they had previously thought.
