"Of course. The Earth is still the Holy Land's main source of inheritance. The Holy Land will still pay attention to it. It's just that their horizons are different." Uncle Zhang seemed to be able to see through Wang Zhong's mind and said with a smile, "For example, if you can become a Great Teacher in the Holy City, then the people you care about will have a place in the Federation as long as they have a certain foundation. If you can become a Sacred Teacher, then you will be qualified to challenge the 10 Great Families. Of course, this requires the other party to have a certain amount of power. One power is not omnipotent."
Uncle Zhang's explanation was very thorough. What he meant was that once you reached this position, your agent on Earth would have the right to do so. Back then, the Assassin Family had no hope at all because they did not have the support of the Holy Land. Thus, the 10 Great Families divided the Earth. If they had the corresponding supporters of the Holy Land, then they would definitely be able to resist.
Power and rules had always been the elements of human rule. Neither was missing.
Uncle Zhang smiled and shook his head. "Let's not talk about this. Don't be distracted by these things now."
As soon as Uncle Zhang finished speaking, he realized that his chessboard was already a checkmate. This kid was seducing him and chatting with him at the same time, digging a hole on the chessboard to bury him. He was about to die!
"Kid, you're too cunning!" Uncle Zhang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't expect Wang Zhong to learn so quickly.
"I finally won!" Wang Zhong reminisced. "When two armies confront each other, it's better to attack the mind. Distraction is also a tactic, Uncle Zhang!"
"That's a poisonous move. You deliberately made me think that you were interested in it, but in fact, it triggered my bad habit of being a teacher!" Uncle Zhang gave a thumbs up and laughed.
"No way. You're just loving the younger generation. As long as you don't find me annoying, it's fine."
"When you reach my age, you'll understand. Compared to trouble, you're more afraid of loneliness." Uncle Zhang smiled and didn't hide his inner feelings.
It was almost noon, and the pot of Samsara wine was soon finished. Uncle Zhang kept the chessboard and left. Wang Zhong was about to leave when his Skylink rang.
"Wang Zhong? I've contacted Mu Zi. They're almost ready. They want you to go to the old pyramid site in three days. They said that you know the coordinates. "
"Okay." Wang Zhong recalled his experience of obtaining the Golden Stone Slab and remembered the coordinates clearly. "Oh right, help me pass a message to Mu Zi. Ask him to help me get some Samsara wine."
After speaking to Gong Yi, he did not mention the influence of the Holy Land. Just as Uncle Zhang had said, on one hand, he was not qualified. On the other hand, Gong Yi and Ma Dong did not have the strength to compete for it.
At the thought of being able to meet Mu Zi and Aiolos in three days, he was a little excited. However, when he thought of the problem of leaving the city, he immediately frowned. It seemed like he didn't have the time to slowly accumulate the 500 Holy Coins.
This was the first time that Mu Zi and Aioros had a request of him. No matter what, he couldn't be late. He could only think of a solution himself.
He flipped through the amount of coins on his bracelet. In addition to the 100 Holy Coins reward for entering the Holy City, there was also the reward for becoming a second-class apprentice for the first month, as well as the 100 Holy Coins that Lan Daier had given him for the first time. In addition, there were the rewards for tasting dishes. He had spent quite a lot in the library previously, so he still had a little more than 200 Holy Coins left.
It was not very realistic to borrow money. The only people he knew were Laura, Grai, and the others. Although they would definitely try their best to help him if he asked them, they would probably be able to gather the money if each of them pooled together a little. However, they were all newcomers and needed a lot of money. Those guys only had the 100 Holy Coins reward when they entered the city, so they were much poorer than him. It was already good enough that they didn't borrow money from a 'tycoon' like him. How could he ask for money?
Laura might be able to ask Molton for help, but in essence, it was Molton who was borrowing the money. However, his relationship with Molton wasn't that close. Coupled with the previous incident, Wang Zhong still had some sense of propriety. Furthermore, if he borrowed money this time, how could he work with his head held high in the future?
Wang Zhong currently had two solutions. One was to find a smuggling group, and the other was to find Teacher Lan Daier to sign a slave contract. Let's put it this way: unless it was absolutely necessary, he really didn't want to sign a slave contract. Even if he was in good health, he wouldn't be able to withstand that kind of lifestyle.
Therefore, Wang Zhong thought of the smuggling group first. It wasn't difficult to find one. The business of the Holy City had always been half-underground and half-public. In fact, it wasn't hidden, but after asking around, he realized that it wasn't reliable.
It was said that a group had just left a few days ago, and there were only three to five people registered to leave the city. If they wanted him to wait, he would probably have to wait for at least a few days. Also, the price was a little too high, insisting on 400 Holy Coins. In their words, this was the rule for receiving newcomers. Next time, they might give you a certain discount, but for the first time, 400 Holy Coins was the standard price. If you couldn't afford it, then don't come. There was no room for bargaining.
This was still not enough. Wang Zhong was also depressed. After pondering for a long time, he could only go to the Dimensional Hostel to try his luck. In fact, when exploration teams took on missions, there would occasionally be situations where the team wasn't full. Firstly, some exploration teams were relatively small and had fewer people. Secondly, it also depended on the scale of the mission. Perhaps a mission that wasn't too difficult, after deducting the cost of 1,000 Pioneering Orders, could be divided among seven or eight people to make a small profit. However, if it was divided among 20 people, there would basically be no profit.
It was acceptable to meet this kind of exploration team, and the asking price wouldn't be too high either. Anyway, the 20 Pioneering Orders were empty anyway, and no one would refuse to earn some travel fees. However, whether or not one could meet this kind of exploration team depended on one's luck.
Wang Zhong obviously didn't have such luck, but it wasn't that his luck was too bad. Firstly, there were very few exploration teams like this. Secondly, if there really was such an exploration team, the empty spots would basically be taken up internally, and it would be a transaction between acquaintances. After all, rules were rules. On the surface, the Holy City still prohibited such deceitful behavior. How could an unknown newcomer take advantage of this? He was definitely thinking too much.
How about working for others? There was no rule that stated that Dimensional Exploration teams could only use members of their own exploration teams for missions. In particular, some slightly weaker exploration teams would often hire outsiders to help them. For example, the Gourmet Team specialized in helping other exploration teams work for them. Wang Zhong knew his own strength. If he met the right person, he didn't mind showing off a little in front of some exploration team leaders if necessary. Although he wouldn't be that outstanding in the Holy City, he was definitely qualified to be an ordinary worker.
"Working for a team? You're pretty strong? " The chubby exploration team leader narrowed his eyes and sized Wang Zhong up. "You are?"
The Victor Squadron could be considered a new exploration team. It hadn't been established for long, only about ten years. However, the exploration team was developing well and had a large scale. A large number of family members had joined the Sparta Clan. The chubby captain was also quite capable, but he didn't seem to know Wang Zhong.
However, there were many people in the hall, including Holy Disciples and newcomers. After hearing Wang Zhong's words, many people around him who knew him laughed. Perhaps not many people recognized Wang Zhong's face, but his name was really too famous recently. There were many newcomers who acted out of line, but after all, not every troublesome newcomer dared to be like Wang Zhong and rebuke people like Okuyama Domoto on the spot.
"Victor, this god in front of you is the second-class Observation Apprentice who rebuked Domoto. You really have eyes but failed to recognize him." Someone roared with laughter.
The chubby captain's expression changed instantly. So it was this notorious idiot. No wonder he felt that he had heard of this name before.
"Porter, are you looking for trouble?" The chubby captain Victor didn't even look at Wang Zhong in the eye. Instead, he was quite bothered by the person who spoke. "Are you looking down on us, Victor? Do you think we accept all kinds of trash? "
"Ahem, this, actually, he's not that bad. At least …"
"At least your face is good!" The chubby captain ignored him and turned to look at Wang Zhong. His eyes were full of contempt and disdain. "Please get lost. Our exploration team doesn't want trash."
Wang Zhong had heard similar taunts these days, but he didn't care. Keeping a low profile was his established strategy. After all, his current strength wasn't enough among the Holy Disciples, and he wouldn't lose anything if he was taunted. He looked at another exploration team leader who was submitting a mission application. However, before he could speak, that exploration team leader had already said, "Shut up. Don't look at me. Do you think the Oceanic Beasts will accept trash that even Victor doesn't want?!"
"Hale, what do you mean? Do you think that Victor is inferior to the Oceanic Beasts? "The chubby captain didn't agree. Hale's words were too ambiguous.
"Why? Isn't that the case? The ranking of the Oceanic Beasts is higher than yours! "
