Basically, in the Holy Land, which was under the supervision of the teachers, the exploration teams were completely autonomous. The reputation of the exploration teams was also very important. Who would be willing to be labeled as a garbage collector for such a small amount of Holy Coins? How would they be able to survive in the future? How would they be able to negotiate the price of missions in the future?
He asked a few exploration team leaders in a row, and all of them received the same answer. Those with better tempers simply rejected him faintly, while those with bad tempers were about to start scolding him. It was obvious that Napier Mo was useless.
It seemed that this was still a dead end. Wang Zhong was also helpless. It seemed that there was only one way left, and that was to ask Teacher Lan Daier for help.
Lan Daier was definitely the kind of teacher who was overflowing with wealth. Even though she lacked money, she definitely lacked a lot of money. During this period of time, she had been tasting dishes quite frequently. Although they weren't that close, they were at least quite familiar with each other. Furthermore, Wang Zhong was working for her, and with his status as a second-class apprentice, his monthly reward was a hundred Holy Coins. It shouldn't be a big deal to ask her for an advance of one or two hundred Holy Coins, and he wouldn't have to worry about repayment. However, considering how shrewd Lan Daier was, Wang Zhong felt that he would probably be ripped off by her. She might even force him to sign a contract or something. She had mentioned this a few times, but Wang Zhong wasn't stupid …
"Hi!"
Just as Wang Zhong was hesitating, he suddenly heard someone calling out to him. Turning his head to look, he saw a blue-haired middle-aged man wearing a flat cap. He was dressed in jeans and a pair of leather boots. There was a faint smile on his face and a stalk of green foxtail in his mouth. "That kid."
Wang Zhong pointed at his own nose. "Me?"
"It's you." The blue-haired man laughed and said, "I've been watching you for a long time. Do you want to follow the group or leave the city?"
I can pay you according to the regular group tickets. It doesn't matter if it's a little more. "Wang Zhong's spirit was lifted. He felt that there was a chance. As long as he had a choice, he really didn't want to borrow money from Lan Daier.
"Tomorrow, my group will be leaving the city. Nine people, plus you, ten people." The blue-haired man smiled and said, "Normal group ticket. Bring 100 Holy Coins and wait for us at the city gate tomorrow morning."
Many people around them heard their conversation. This blue-haired man seemed to be quite famous in the Dimensional Exploration Hall, and many exploration team leaders were surprised.
"The blue-haired Oscar is actually helping that kid?"
"Has the Wanderlust Team gone crazy from poverty? Are you interested in a hundred Holy Coins? "
"I heard that they accepted a mission and many people died. The mission was not completed. I guess they are really poor now."
"Heh, he dares to take on an S-rank mission with the strength of a small exploration team? He's really too arrogant."
"They're tossing and turning like this, so they're not far from being annihilated by the heavens. They probably want to accumulate some good karma." Someone mocked.
There were those who discriminated against Wang Zhong, and naturally, there were also those who discriminated against the Wanderlust Team. Humans always liked to find a sense of superiority in their boring lives, and there would never be a lack of discriminated people.
The blue-haired Oscar was quite strong and was a senior Holy Disciple. It was said that he had a chance to become a teacher. He used to be a captain in the Phantom Squadron, which was ranked third among the top 10 exploration teams. Later, he came out on his own, but he was a little unrealistic and loved to take risks. The people with him were all lunatics who were not afraid of death and sought excitement between life and death.
The Wanderlust Team had been established for more than ten years, but it was still a new team. They were too lazy to take on low-level missions. They were just a first-level exploration team with less than 20 members, but they often challenged B-rank and even A-rank missions. Their completion rate wasn't high, so they were naturally ranked at the bottom of the exploration team rankings. Some time ago, they even lost their minds and said that they had discovered a magical secret realm, an S-rank barren realm. Out of the 20 people who went there, only nine returned alive. They suffered a great loss, and they were the typical people who had high ambitions but low abilities.
Oscar didn't seem to care much about the mockery around him. Like Wang Zhong, he had heard similar words many times. Perhaps it was because of this similar experience that he reached out to help just now because he didn't like them.
"Okay!" Naturally, Wang Zhong was happy and agreed to it. He had thought that there was no hope, but now, there was a glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel. A hundred Holy Coins for a ten-person team was already the fairest price in the Holy City.
Wang Zhong finally decided on the time to leave the city, but he didn't relax. He needed help even when Mu Zi and Aiolos were together. Obviously, this wasn't an ordinary adventure. At the very least, it wouldn't be easier than the pyramid secret realm. However, this kind of experience was what Wang Zhong craved more now.
Blue sky, white clouds, and the forest air was filled with a sweet fragrance. Everything was so calm and beautiful.
Then, two figures appeared out of thin air. With a loud bang, the two of them crashed down like meteorites.
"They didn't chase after us, right?"
"I don't think so …"
As soon as they landed, the two of them quickly turned over and stood up. One of them was carrying a huge coffin on his back, while the other was towering like a god. They were none other than Mu Zi and Aiolos, whom Wang Zhong was worried about. It was just that even though the two of them were strong, they still ended up in such a sorry state.
Mu Zi and Aioros panted heavily. At this moment, they raised their heads to look at the sky. The previously calm sky had suddenly changed. White clouds mischievously rolled about, resembling a group of mischievous puppies that were happily playing around. It seemed as though they were celebrating something, but it also seemed as though they were mocking the two of them for overestimating their abilities.
It was a wonderful and strange world full of childlike fun.
Mu Zi and Aiolos had abnormally serious and nervous expressions on their faces. Mu Zi placed his hand on the coffin behind him, while Aiolos quietly took out a pale golden bone.
The two of them looked at the sky with fear in their eyes. It was obvious that if something went wrong, the two of them would instantly erupt with a thunderous attack.
Breathe, breathe. Time passed second by second. After a long time, the clouds in the sky gradually calmed down, and the two of them heaved a sigh of relief.
"They probably won't chase after us." Aiolos let out a long breath, and the pale golden bone in his hand quietly disappeared.
Mu Zi nodded, but he still looked at the sky with lingering fear. After confirming that everything had calmed down, he slowly withdrew his hand from the coffin.
"It still won't work. We have to wait for Wang Zhong to come." Mu Zi looked at Aiolos. "I'm afraid that Wang Zhong will still need some time to come. What should we do?"
A solemn expression appeared on Aioros's face. This time, he had discovered this strange "Thought Illusion Secret Realm" by accident and coincidence. It was a little bizarre.
The so-called thought fantasy secret realm was different from ordinary dimensional secret realms. The most fundamental difference was that the source of the thought fantasy secret realm came from the projection of the human world.
