Ham Sausage revealed its true form as the Gatekeeper of Hell, and a terrifying pressure swept out like a hurricane. It was a level-7 dimensional lifeform!
"Roar!"
Ham Sausage turned its head abruptly, and its eyes widened. Its roar was like thunder, scaring Asher so much that he fell to the ground. Everyone was dumbfounded. What the hell was this???
Ham Sausage's deathly aura once again wreaked havoc in the tree demon forest. These tree demons were really unlucky. They had just been reborn, and they were washed clean again. For the sake of food, Ham Sausage worked very hard. It snorted and howled as it rushed toward the wooden house.
It was calm in front of the wooden house. Most of the traces left by the previous battle had been erased, and the seven dwarfs were recovering. Half of the dwarfs' bodies could be seen recovering in the weeds, growing out of thin air bit by bit at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"I've heard of the law of rebirth in S-rank secret realms a long time ago, but this is the first time I've seen it with my own eyes!" Oscar was also emotional. He wanted to touch his hair, but he could only touch a bald head.
"Captain, your hairstyle is not bad!"
"Yeah, I won't have to pay for haircuts in the future!"
It was the first time everyone present had witnessed such a 'miracle'. S-rank secret realms were really not something exploration teams like them could come into contact with. Only the top three exploration teams could do it, and that was under the leadership of a Great Teacher.
He recorded the coordinates in the Pioneering Order and used his Skylink to take a picture of the dwarfs being reborn and the transmission array in the wooden house. This was the key to the serial secret realms. The strength of the secret realms could be directly determined based on the transmission array, and it was also the evidence to be handed to the Holy City. Receiving the reward depended on it.
After completing the mission, the members of the Wanderlust Team looked at each other. Wang Zhong knew in his heart that the people in this team had good moral integrity and didn't want to take advantage of a newcomer like him. If they were thick-skinned, they probably wouldn't end up like them.
"Wang Zhong, you should go and receive this reward." Oscar couldn't help but comment. It could be seen that this guy had a very good physique. Even after being overdrafted by the Calamity Vest, he still had such an experience. "The reward for exploring secret realms in the Dimensional Hostel is not only money, but also a personal rating in the Dimensional Hostel. An S-rank secret realm like this can directly make a newcomer like you famous. I'm afraid that even the top 10 exploration teams will fight to invite you."
The Dimensional Hostel had an individual level and a team's level. The level determined the upper limit of what kind of missions one could receive. If one wanted to receive high-level missions, newcomers and small exploration teams would obviously not be able to do so. In addition, there would be a certain discount for some expenses in the Dimensional Hostel based on one's level. The higher one's level was, the more profitable business there would be.
Regardless of whether it was luck or strength, if Wang Zhong completed it, he would definitely be able to make a comeback.
"Leader, I just decided to join the Wanderlust Team. Are you in such a hurry to sell me out?"
Oscar stared blankly, and so did everyone else. Could it be that this guy was stupid? How could he not be tempted by such great benefits? They were all Holy Disciples and knew very well how difficult it was for an Apprentice to rise. It was not an exaggeration to start from the bottom. It was nothing new for some female Holy Disciples to sell their bodies. After all, everyone was protected by a teacher. Besides, teachers might not be very kind.
Wang Zhong smiled and said, "I'm still a newcomer, and the focus of a newcomer should be learning. Being famous doesn't do me any good, and I don't want to be disturbed by other exploration teams. Therefore, the Dimensional Hostel's level is useless to me now. Besides, compared to me, the Wanderlust Team needs this achievement more. You guys didn't ask for anything when you helped me, so we're even."
"… You're right. I won't be unreasonable then." Oscar laughed out loud. To be honest, this achievement was a lifesaver for them.
It had been more than two years since the Wanderlust Team was established. Although they had completed many difficult missions, they had also failed many times due to their love of walking on a tightrope. In addition, the Wanderlust Team was too small and had too few members, so it was difficult for them to take on large-scale missions that could increase their team's level. Therefore, the team's level kept dropping, and they had never been able to increase their team's level. As a result, it was difficult for them to take on missions, earn rewards, and keep up with their equipment. They were in a miserable state. To be honest, many people who were far less talented than the Wanderlust Team had already gained considerable combat power by relying on various team benefits. Everyone had a high-level soul tool.
But looking at the Wanderlust Team, up until now, other than Wang Zhong's' Trisson's Calamity Vest 'that he couldn't use at all, only the' Murphy's Hand Cannon 'in Small Eyes's hands was considered good. The others were still holding low-level ordinary soul tools, which seriously restricted the improvement of everyone's strength.
Without levels, there would be no missions. Without missions, there would be no money. Without money, there would be no equipment. Without equipment, there would be no way to earn more, or rather, there would be no opportunity to go to better places to train themselves. This was a vicious cycle.
If everyone had a high-level soul tool when they were besieged by the tree demons, they would have been able to leave even if they couldn't enter.
This was an S-rank series of secret realms. Just by looking at the high-level transmission array left in the small wooden hut, it was definitely an S-rank secret realm. This was enough to allow the Wanderlust Team to jump three ranks in a row. This was crucial for the team's future development. Of course, there was another more important thing, and that was to hold their heads high!
Basically, the Dimensional Hostel in the Holy City treated the Wanderlust Team as a suicide mission. If it weren't for Oscar and the others who had some combat power, who knew what would have happened to them. This mission would definitely make them famous.
The seal on the secret realm was lifted, and everyone activated the Pioneering Order. When they returned, the coordinates of the Holy Land were extremely clear. Wang Zhong also experienced this convenience again, but this time, he learned from experience that some secret realms could interfere with the Pioneering Order. To put it bluntly, the Pioneering Order was also a kind of runic array, so it wasn't difficult for it to be sealed in a secret realm.
The group returned to the Holy City directly. Feng brought Small Eyes back to the Mystic Sect to recuperate, while Asher and Lance accompanied Oscar to the Dimensional Hostel to receive their rewards. After arranging to meet everyone at the Queen's Bar that night, Wang Zhong went straight back to his dormitory.
This trip took three days. The passage of time in the dimensional secret realms was not uniform, but generally speaking, there wouldn't be too much of a difference. Once they stepped into the Fifth Dimension, things that were more regular in the real world became meaningless here.
After taking a shower in the dormitory and changing his clothes, Wang Zhong thought of the magic mirror that Aioros had thrown to him. He excitedly took it out of the storage space. In addition to understanding the power of his Dharma Idol, he mainly obtained this magic mirror. Unlike Aioros, he couldn't directly understand the laws from battles, but he could slowly understand them through treasures like this. Thinking was also one of Wang Zhong's strengths.
On the surface, it was just a very exquisite mirror with a bronze surface. It wasn't a glass mirror, but it wasn't a bronze mirror either. It looked a bit like some kind of colored crystal.
The mirror was damaged, and a huge crack ran through the entire mirror. From time to time, one could feel traces of dimensional power overflowing from the crack.
Soul tools such as mirrors often reflected themselves, and their attributes would change according to the owner. In the hands of the Queen, it could reflect attacks to form a protective shield and could also be used as an imprisonment artifact. It was indeed very convenient and powerful, but for now, he could only look at it.
This mirror wasn't completely damaged. Wang Zhong infused a little of his Soul Power into it, trying to explore the mysteries within or activate it directly. However, the Soul Power he infused was like a stone sinking into the sea, not causing any ripples at all. It was as if the Soul Power was directly swallowed by the mirror, and there was no reaction at all.
He tried to increase the output of his Soul Power and continued to infuse it with a thousand Grassos of power for a long time, but the result was still the same. There was no reaction or change. The only thing he could feel was the vastness of this magic mirror, and the Soul Power that entered it couldn't cause any ripples at all.
Wang Zhong shook his head. After all, this was something used by experts at the Heavenly Soul Stage. If he wanted to activate it with his strength at the Initial Phase of the Heroic Soul Stage, it was probably like an ant trying to shake a tree. It was simply impossible. It looked like he could only keep it for the time being. Perhaps he could use it when he reached the Heavenly Soul Stage. When the Empress and Aiolos fought, the defense barrier created by the magic mirror made Wang Zhong extremely envious. It was able to make even the most ferocious Aiolos feel helpless. This was definitely a rare top-notch defensive weapon among soul tools.
Wang Zhong had never cared much about external objects, but this mirror was something that he couldn't bear to part with. It was something that came from the fairytale secret realm, so it definitely contained some laws that could help him enter the Heavenly Soul Stage in the future. Putting down the magic mirror, Wang Zhong was actually thinking about what exactly the Fate Stone was.
Its existence seemed to be very special even in the Fifth Dimension. Could it really be an item of the God of Fate?
Wang Zhong couldn't help but laugh. He had already reached the Holy Land, and there was no such thing as a god. It was just a more powerful life form. The reason why he couldn't unlock the secret of the Fate Stone now was that he was too weak.
It was already night time when he arrived at the Queen's Bar.
This place was relatively remote, and it was in the outskirts of the city. It was different from the bars in the Holy Disciples' District that Wang Zhong had been to before. There was no elegant light music, expensive wine, or luxurious decorations. It was a shabby but bustling alley, and cheers and various screams could be heard everywhere. There were bright lights, ear-piercing music, and the smell of hard liquor and rock music filled the air. The people who lingered around the area were some of the lower-class people in the Holy City. This place was incompatible with the noble inner city, but in fact, it was very popular with the staff of the Holy City, dimensional humans, and even alien races. They could relax here and temporarily stop speculating about the future.
When he entered the Queen's Bar, he was greeted by the deafening sound of music as soon as he opened the door. There was a huge dance floor inside, and hundreds of people were singing and dancing to the passionate music. Everywhere he looked was densely packed with people. Where could he find the members of the Wanderlust Team?
Oscar, who was sitting at a small table not far from the entrance, was already waving at Wang Zhong. It could be seen that although their team leader was bald, he was in a very good mood. "Wang Zhong, over here!"
Other than Small Eyes, who was recovering from her injuries, the rest of the Wanderlust Team was there, but most of them had already gone to the dance floor to party. Only Oscar, Feng, and the giant Lance were sitting at a small table. Everyone was in a good mood.
There were some good drinks and fruit plates on the table, as well as some snacks. The loud music made it so that people had to shout to barely be heard.
"This is the base camp of our Wanderlust Team!" Oscar laughed heartily. "Small Eyes and Lance are both alien races and were born and raised here. Many of us got to know each other in this bar. Haha, I like this kind of carefree life. It's not like the parties in the inner city where people will say that you are rude if you speak a little louder. Damn it, we should drink to our heart's content!"
"That makes sense!" Wang Zhong quite liked Oscar's candid personality. Although he wasn't particularly used to such a noisy place, he didn't dislike it. On the contrary, he felt that it was quite fresh and interesting. People should be able to calm down when it was time to be quiet, but when it was time to be noisy, they should also be able to have fun.
"Wang Zhong, come and have a drink." Feng smiled and raised her glass. She had always given others the impression of a very quiet girl. She should like quiet places, but she was actually able to adapt to this noisy bar. Furthermore, it was obvious that she enjoyed such an environment and was in a very relaxed mood. "Thank you!"
"I thought I was already one of us," Wang Zhong said with a smile.
"That's true." Oscar smiled and said, "Thanks to you, our Wanderlust Team has jumped two ranks and is now a third-rank exploration team. We can accept A-rank missions as we please. When I came out, I looked through the recent A-rank missions. The rewards of those missions made my eyes pop out."
"You still need to be alive to accept them!" Feng glared at Oscar. It was obvious that the two of them had something going on. The two of them had a clear division of labor in the Wanderlust Team. Feng was the brains, and Oscar was the valiant general.
"We have a new force now. I've found out that our new member is really amazing. In the past, he was …"
"Captain, a real man doesn't boast about his past achievements." Wang Zhong smiled and stuffed Oscar's mouth with wine. "How are your injuries?"
"It's nothing. Thanks to your friend, it was a blessing in disguise. Part of the Calamity Vest's power has been transferred to me. I'm just recuperating now!" Oscar said as he touched his bald head. There were many blue lines on his body, and it seemed like they wouldn't disappear. However, in the Holy City, these 'tattoos' were nothing at all. Modified humans and aliens could be seen everywhere.
"By the way," he said as he took out a golden card from his pocket. "This is 5,000 Holy Coins. It's your share of the reward. Have you used the Holy Coin Card before? Insert it into your Skylink wristband and read it. The Holy Coins will be automatically deposited into your account. "
"5,000? There's so much?" Wang Zhong smiled and took it. There was no need to stand on ceremony. Oscar must have distributed it.
"What's yours is yours. I've also left a portion for everyone. Speaking of which, we've taken advantage of you. But since you're one of us, I won't stand on ceremony with you." Oscar waved his hand and laughed. "So, you don't have to decline such a small matter."
