Chapter 512 Clark's Treasure Hunting Plan
"Mr. Hainier, these three items were taken from Baldwin. How do you think they should be allocated?"
Joan asked the frost giant.
Clark was not in a hurry to make a choice. He picked up the three trophies and looked at them, then put them on the table and said to Joan, "The revolver is good, but it's too small for my thick and clumsy fingers." Head, the 'Gantias Root' is useless to me, and as for the magic lens, it's quite interesting, but keep it to yourself, bro."
Joan froze for a moment, and asked the Frost Giant in confusion, "You don't want any of these three things?"
Clark grinned: "I mean what I say, and it's all yours!"
In fact, Qiao An was very fond of these three trophies, but he was a little embarrassed to let him take them all.
Clark saw that he was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "My brother, if you feel sorry, why don't you do something for me."
"What's the matter?" Joan asked curiously.
Clark approached him, lowered his voice mysteriously and said, "Help me find a treasure!"
"Can you tell me in detail what treasure you are looking for and where to find it?" Joan asked cautiously.
"This matter started a year ago. During my travels in Niflheim, I was favored by a lord witch who was stationed at the Temple of Hel, and healed me of fatal injuries."
"When I left the temple after recovering from my injuries, I offered to repay her for saving my life. After thinking about it, the lord witch entrusted me to find something. After I found it, I sent it to the Temple of Styx as soon as possible, and handed it to her for disposal."
"What is that?" Joan couldn't help asking curiously.
"A collar." Clark said solemnly, "The collar worn by the abyss lord Koschurch."
Joan couldn't help but change his face.
The name "Kostchurch" can be described as a very sinister name.
As early as in ancient times, Kostchurch was a brave leader of barbarians. He was famous for hating giants and discriminating against women. He slaughtered countless giants and innocent women in his life, and finally angered the demigod known as the "Witch King". Baba Yaka, cast a spell to turn him into an ugly frost giant, and cursed him to fall into the abyss, never to be loved by women.
In this way, Kostchurch was forced to become the giant he hated the most, and was forced to struggle for survival in the cruel and dangerous bottomless abyss.
I have to say, Kostchurch is really amazing! Starting from a mere mortal, after a period of hard work, he actually overthrew the original ruler of the 23rd floor of the abyss, the "Steel Ice Field", the demon lord Sith Hood.
Since then, Kostchurch has established himself as the lord of this layer of abyss, building a throne for himself with the title of "Prince of Wrath" and "King of Frost Giants", not only forming a powerful demon army in the abyss, Fame also spread to all planes of the multiverse, and won the worship of many frost giants.
Of course, most frost giants who respect tradition are more inclined to worship the "God of Frost Giants" Solem, who came from the orthodox giant pantheon, and regard Koschurch as an evil god. In the society of giants, heretics are excluded and suppressed.
Since the collar that Clark was entrusted to find was once a personal accessory worn by a demon lord, it is conceivable that this collar must have powerful magic power, and it may even be a legendary magic weapon or even an artifact!
Huge benefits often come with equally huge risks.
If Kostchurch's collar was easy to find, why didn't the witches of the Arctic hunt for the treasure themselves, instead entrusting the task to Clark?
It can be seen that the location of this treasure must be extremely dangerous, and the process of treasure hunting will also be accompanied by unpredictable risks. If you are not careful, you will ruin your life.
From the perspective of avoiding risks, Joan actually wanted to reject Clark's invitation. However, it also takes great courage to refuse other people's requests, especially considering that Clark has just generously given him the magic crystal pistol, see-through hand mirror and Ganthias tree roots, Joan really can't bear to let this big friend disappointment.
After thinking silently for a long time, Joan finally spoke.
"Mr. Hainier, I'd like to hear you talk about the treasure hunting plan in detail. If it is feasible, I will be more than happy to help you. Your plan is too risky, your hope is slim, and you will directly reject it, please forgive me."
"No problem! I just like dealing with cheerful people like you, brother!"
Clark excitedly grabbed the quill and drew a treasure hunt route map on the straw paper.
"Today is November 8th, and I plan to stay in House Town for three days to purchase dry food and various tools that may be used during the adventure."
"On November 12th, we set off for Port of Princes, and we will be able to enter the city on the morning of the 13th at the latest, which happens to be the weekend."
"I have an appointment with two friends to meet at the 'Old Man's Tavern' on the Docklands of Port Leighton on a weekend afternoon and I will try to convince them to join the treasure hunt."
"If everything goes well, you, me, and those two friends will form a treasure hunting team together. With the strength of the four of us, it is not difficult to deal with the threats that may be encountered on the way."
Joan could tell that Clark had great expectations for the two friends who had agreed to meet in Port Prince.
Clark's strength is already close to the "quasi-legendary" level, and the people who are valued by Clark will not be too weak, and they must be much stronger than him, a little mage. If the two strong men can be recruited smoothly, with the comprehensive strength of this four-person team, it will not be difficult to hunt for treasures, even to slay dragons.
Thinking of this, Joan looked forward to Clark's treasure hunting plan a little more, and nodded for him to continue talking about the next step.
"If our treasure hunting team can be successfully formed, then we will leave Prince Port, go upstream along the 'Mead River' outside the city, enter the 'Hanged Head Forest', and walk along the river beach for about two to three weeks. You will arrive at the first key location of this treasure hunt—the Owl Bear Valley!"
"Owl Bear Valley..." Joan frowned slightly.
This place is located in the southeast of the "Hanging Head Forest", one of the most dangerous areas in the Mead River Valley. It is said that there are no less than a hundred adult owl bears living in the valley by the river. This kind of monster with the body of a bear and the head of an owl is brutal and aggressive by nature, far more dangerous than ordinary beasts like tigers, leopards, bears, and wolves.
If you only encountered one or two owl bears during the journey, it would not be a big deal, but Joan seemed to sneak into the depths of the valley where a large group of owl bears lived?
No matter how strong the treasure hunting team is, it can't withstand the beating of hundreds of owls and bears... Is it really necessary to make such a big death?
