After departing from the Eastern Glerian Mountain Range, Noah and his group walked toward the Qin Empire. They soon reached the border area through which they could enter the Qin Empire.
However, they also noticed that this border area was a lot different as compared to the Glerian Kingdom and the Sinyalian Kingdom's borders.
A black line on the ground seed to indicate the boundaries of the two kingdoms. This black line was irregular, which could be considered very normal. Moreover, Noah sensed a threatening feeling from that black line.
It felt as though this black line possessed the strength to kill Noah.
Noah was startled, but he felt it wouldn't be too farfetched for his feeling to be right. He had witnessed many uses of the Array Formations and knew that if it was a high-level array, even Noah would be killed with no exception.
"How do we cross the border?" Noah was slightly frustrated. His subordinates looked at him with a confused expression.
"Isn't the Qin Empire right past that borderline?"
"We can't cross this black line," Noah spoke seriously.
"Why not?" One of his subordinates asked. All mbers of the Heretical Paladins stared in Noah's direction for an answer.
Noah casually replied, "I don't know, but I have a bad feeling about this. We cannot cross this Black Line without investigating it further. Anyway, let's look around and see if it's broken sowhere."
They looked around for another way inside the Qin Empire but found nothing.
Before long, the Heretical Paladins drifted into a village. Noah booked an entire boarding house in the village.
Noah soon entered his room and contacted Sargan through the Mystical Spiritual Connection Ring, "…How do I enter the Qin Empire? There is so weird Black Line that gives a frightening feeling. I think it's part of an array."
Sargan answered Noah's question almost imdiately, "Your guess might be right. Where are you right now?"
"In a village near the borders. I think this village's na is Alballe village," Noah spoke.
"Alballe village, huh? Never heard of this one," Sargan responded blandly.
"Yeah. It's pretty close to the borders. I found it while I was checking out a way to enter the Qin Empire without passing through that Black Line," Noah explained.
"I see," Sargan spoke. He then suddenly spoke, "Ask your subordinates to question the villagers. They might know of so secret thod to enter the Qin Empire."
"Hmm. You are right," Noah agreed with this plan.
The next day, Noah gathered all his subordinates and ordered them to question the villagers. They were also ordered to ask politely and not disturb the villagers too much.
Noah's subordinates returned to the inn in the evening ti with lots of information regarding that black line.
Firstly, that black line was known as the Intruder Incineration Line. All intruders breaching that line would be instantly incinerated. Even a 6 Star Warrior was no exception!
Only those who possessed a special dallion could pass that Intruder Incineration Line without any trouble.
Secondly, this Intruder Incineration Line wouldn't harm the Great Qin Empire's citizens. It ant that the Great Qin Empire's citizens could pass that line and remain safe. In fact, all those accompanying the Great Qin Empire's citizens would be fine if they passed the border line along with him.
The Great Qin Empire purposely created such a loophole in this array. Through this thod, they could secretly recruit more soldiers without showing them on the official record. Thus, the other nations would have no idea about this secret force, and it could act as an Ace for the Great Qin Empire.
However, this loophole did greater harm than good since the rebellious groups in the Great Qin Empire used this loophole to bring more of their supporters into the Great Qin Empire and cause great destruction.
The Great Qin Empire acted according as it set up nurous outposts to monitor any intruders secretly entering the Great Qin Empire.
The officials assigned by the Royal Family held special seals or wore unique clothing, and the soldiers didn't bother them. anwhile, all the other individuals entering the Great Qin Empire secretly were slaughtered.
There had been so cases when these soldiers accidentally killed soldiers on the Royal Family's secret mission. But still, the outposts remained standing.
These outposts significantly decreased the number of outsiders entering the Great Qin Empire. Their benefits outweighed their drawbacks by a wide margin.
"Did you find any Great Qin Empire citizens in this village?" Noah asked his subordinates.
"Yes. There is one who claims to be a Great Qin Empire citizen. However, he refuses to help us pass the border. He says that the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire will slaughter us all if we go without a special dallion," Aria spoke seriously.
"I heard that the soldiers assigned in these outposts had killed even a group of 6 Star Warriors," Luna spoke.
Noah fell into deep thought. This ant that even if he passed the borders, the Heretical Paladins wouldn't be safe. In fact, they would be in even greater danger.
"Ask that Qin Empire citizen if another thod exists to enter that Empire. He should know of another way even if it's more dangerous than these thods," Noah ordered them.
Three Heretical Paladins imdiately left this eting to question that man.
anwhile, the other mbers showed a puzzled expression as a mber asked Noah, "What is the point of knowing about another thod if it's even more dangerous than the one we know."
All other mbers agreed to his words. Even Noah found himself agreeing with that statent, but he spoke seriously, "My Boss taught to never remain ignorant about my options. Moreover, the danger is subjective. What's more dangerous for others might not be as dangerous for us?"
Only Aria and Luna understood the aning behind his words, while all other subordinates just shrugged in response. Their IQ wasn't great, and they couldn't change Noah's mind, so they stopped thinking.
After a few hours, Noah received information that there was indeed another thod of entering the Great Qin Empire. However, it was so dangerous that everyone would typically avoid that thod.
"The only other thod to enter the Great Qin Empire is to pass through the forbidden Giant Eagle Forest. As the na suggests, there exists a Giant Eagle in this forest. This Giant Eagle possesses the bloodline of a Golden Roc and has reached the Emperor Rank."
"…Even if we pass through this forest, wouldn't the Great Qin Empire have set up that Black Line over there to prevent the intruders from entering their Empire? Or those outposts?" Aria asked.
"No. It seems that the Great Eagle and other beasts of similar rank frequently attack any humans in those areas. That border line array can't stop those beasts since they seed to be considered the Great Qin Empire's citizens."
Moreover, the Great Qin Empire couldn't eliminate this Eagle since it possessed very acute senses. This Eagle would instantly flee upon sensing the aura of an 8 Star Warrior. The Golden Roc bloodline gave access to incredible speed and great talent in Spatial Movent. This prevented any 8 Star Warrior from dealing with this Eagle.
In fact, the Great Qin Empire soon realized that there was no need to deal with this Eagle. This Great Eagle actually blocked the intruders for them.
All the intruders trying to enter the Great Qin Empire would have to deal with this Eagle. And as of this mont, very few warriors have managed to dodge this Eagle's might and entered the Great Qin Empire.
Thus, the Great Qin Empire's Royal Family practically ignored this entrance.
However, Noah smiled upon hearing about this path.
