Ye Chenshan thought for a while and said, "I'll ask the captain about the merit points."
Letting Su Ping pick first in the exploration was already the best they could do. After all, they were in there for the treasures as well. If Su Ping didn't have a good eye, even if he picked first, he would probably pick garbage.
Besides, what he didn't tell Su Ping was that they had the information about the number of treasures in there, but they wouldn't share it with Su Ping.
Of course, they did this to ensure that the treasures would fall into the hands of their own team.
"Okay."
Su Ping didn't mind since they didn't want to compromise on the treasures. After all, benefits had to be weighed. If they thought they were at a disadvantage, they wouldn't do it. It was the same as doing business.
Ye Chenshan took out his communicator and called the captain.
Soon, the call went through.
A man in a low voice answered the call. Judging from his voice, he was in his forties.
Ye Chenshan didn't avoid Su Ping. He talked about Su Ping's conditions directly. He knew that even if he walked to the side, Su Ping would be able to eavesdrop on their conversation easily, unless he used astral power to shield himself. But that would be weird.
Besides, he talked about it in front of Su Ping to show his sincerity.
As for the result of the discussion, although he said it was an inquiry, he already had an idea. The conditions he offered to Su Ping were between one million and two million. He was just pretending to contact the captain.
"Two million? That's a bit much. "
"Captain, Mr. Su is my savior. You know what happened last time …"
"But the other team members will disagree. You know that the team is a collective …"
"I know, captain. This Mysterious Realm is dangerous. I've told you about Mr. Su's strength. If it doesn't work, I'll pay the extra merit points myself."
"What are you talking about? We're all in the same team. Okay, two million it is …"
The call ended. The deal was done.
Ye Chenshan exhaled and smiled at Su Ping. "Mr. Su, it's done. Two million merit points it is."
"Yes." Su Ping nodded. He was not surprised by this result. Although Ye Chenshan seemed to be having a hard time negotiating with him, he was also a man who had been in the underworld before, so he did not mind this kind of appearance. When he put forward his conditions, he had already weighed them and realized that his price wasn't too high.
In this exploration of the Secret Territory, it was inevitable that they would encounter Eighth Rank Demonic Beasts, and perhaps there would be more than one.
After all, if there wasn't even such a degree of danger, they wouldn't have hired anyone. Their battle team could handle it by themselves. Who would be willing to share a piece of the pie and risk the risk of their secret being leaked?
Moreover, Su Ping felt that there was a high possibility of encountering a Ninth Rank monster in the Secret Territory.
With such a degree of danger, his asking price could be considered very friendly!
"In the past few days, I've heard that the opening of the Secret Territory this time is said to be a preparation for the Elite League by some big shots in our base city. But in fact, it's because something has happened in the Secret Territory. Under the guise of preparing for the Elite League, they are actually plotting something else."
Ye Chenshan had a good impression of Su Ping. After the deal was done, he talked about some of the things he had heard. "However, these are all rumors and guesses. I don't know if they are true or not."
Su Ping said, "Even if they are true, it has nothing to do with us."
"That's true. After all, those big shots have more information than we do, and they are more powerful than us. If we can get the treasures in the treasure area, we will have already made a big profit." Ye Chenshan smiled.
Su Ping nodded slightly.
"Mr. Su, you have to be prepared. Many people will enter the Secret Territory this time. Even some students with powerful backgrounds have used their connections to get a place in the Secret Territory."
Ye Chenshan said, "Apart from these talented people who aim to participate in the Elite League, there are also some senior pioneers. They are the most dangerous ones. There are no satellite surveillance in the Secret Territory. Murder and robbery are common. Not only the monsters are dangerous, but also our own kind."
"Okay."
Seeing that Su Ping didn't show any reaction, Ye Chenshan's eyes flashed. He smiled and said, "Of course. Mr. Su, you are in Team Polaris. With Team Polaris's banner, ordinary people don't dare to mess with you. But still, you have to be careful."
Su Ping nodded.
"If there is nothing else, I will go back and get ready. I will pick you up the day after tomorrow." Ye Chenshan said.
Su Ping didn't ask him to stay. He had to hurry up and get ready.
After seeing Ye Chenshan off, Su Ping logged on to the explorers' website to check the email Ye Chenshan had sent him.
After reading it carefully, Su Ping gained a clearer understanding of the Longtai Mountain. He didn't go online to search on his own. Ye Chenshan should be able to find more information than he could on his own.
"There are 109 areas in the Secret Territory. There are dangers and treasures hidden in them. They are the main places for exploration and training. The other place is the dragon platform and the dragon bones!"
"The dragon bones can be used to test one's aptitude?"
"Every time the Secret Territory opens, some talented people will go to the dragon bones to test their aptitude. Those who rank at the top are likely to be taken in as students by titled battle pet warriors."
Su Ping raised his eyebrows but didn't pay much attention to it. He wasn't interested in having a titled battle pet warrior as a teacher.
He focused on the detailed information of the 109 areas. Of the 109 areas, 57 were explored and the information was complete. The treasures in those 57 areas had been taken away.
Some of the treasures were sold in the merit store. Average explorers could buy them with enough merit points.
For example, Su Ping's Water Armor was one of the treasures.
The rare and precious treasures would end up in the hands of people with strong backgrounds or powerful abilities.
Admittedly, the information Ye Chenshan gave to Su Ping was complete. It also mentioned that a powerful treasure was found in area 28. It was said that the treasure could even threaten legendary battle pet warriors!
Once the treasure was found, someone leaked the information. Immediately, many parties fought over it, causing a storm of blood.
Of course, that happened more than a decade ago. It was old news.
Ye Chenshan must have written that in the information to tempt Su Ping, to let him know how powerful the treasures were.
"Every area has a number. Apart from the areas that have been explored, the rest are unknown. Most of the treasures in the explored areas have been taken away. Occasionally, there will be some that are left behind."
"The environment of each area is different …"
The information about the explored areas was very detailed. As for the unknown areas, there were only a few words.
Su Ping finished reading quickly. He had a general understanding of the place. He didn't know if it was just his imagination, but Su Ping felt that the place was familiar.
Su Ping turned off the computer. He didn't waste any more time. He took his pets and went to the dragon king's heritage ground. While exploring the dragon scale land, he was also training his pets.
…
While Su Ping was making preparations for the Mysterious Realm, something was going on in the Longjiang Base City.
In the Langhu Bay Residence.
In a villa.
Xu Kuang and Xu Yingxue were sitting in the living room. Apart from the siblings, there was another person. It was their father, Xu Jianguo, the chairman of the Xu Group.
The Xu Group was a large corporation with assets worth billions. It was one of the top ten companies in the Longjiang Base City. Most families had used the products produced by the subsidiary companies of the Xu Group.
"Sis, are you sure you want to go?"
Xu Kuang wore a complicated expression.
Xu Kuang had just heard the news.
The Longtai Mountain was open. His sister's team was going to explore the Mysterious Realm as well.
Xu Kuang came from a wealthy family and his sister was an experienced explorer. Naturally, he was familiar with the Mysterious Realm. The Mysterious Realm was much more dangerous than the barren areas. Apart from fighting against beasts, there was also the possibility of fighting against other people.
Every time the Mysterious Realm was opened, some people would come out with smiles on their faces while some … couldn't!
"Are you sure which area you want to go to?" Xu Jianguo asked.
Xu Yingxue looked at Xu Kuang and patted his head. "I just got the message. We're going to area 83."
Xu Jianguo frowned. "Do you want me to ask Old Zhang to protect you in secret?"
Xu Yingxue shook her head. "We've teamed up with two other teams to explore together. We're well-prepared. We can deal with other teams even if we run into them."
Xu Jianguo looked at her with a frown.
He loved and cared about this daughter of his. "You must protect yourself if there is any danger. Also, I've asked someone to prepare a set of armor for you. Put it on."
"Okay."
Xu Yingxue's eyes softened.
Xu Kuang made up his mind. "I want to go too."
The smile disappeared from Xu Yingxue's face. "Nonsense."
Xu Kuang said, "I'm going to the Dragon Platform to see how talented I am. It's a public place and there won't be any conflicts."
Xu Yingxue was relieved to hear that. Then, she said grumpily, "You don't need to be tested. I don't think you can even pass the first level. Don't embarrass yourself. It's not cheap to get a spot."
Xu Kuang flew into a rage. "Dad, look at my sister."
"Your sister is right."
"…"
