"The green shelter looks like it's not far away."
A young man with messy hair and obvious dark circles under his eyes put away a roll of maps and looked up in a certain direction.
The Awakener, who was carrying a big backpack next to him, walked to an old two-story self-built house. A lot of the ivy on the wall had been cut off, and the large characters painted on it were clearly visible.
He read it word for word:
"There are still 1,500 meters to the green shelter." He looked at the young man with dark circles under his eyes and said, "Captain, can we look at the road signs instead of the map... No, can you stop leading the way?"
Your road-crazy attribute is known to the entire team.
Obviously, the five of us are all top-notch awakened ones. It is not dangerous to rush from Jingcheng to Green Shade, but we are still dusty. Our combat uniforms are stained with broken leaves and blood, and our hair is messy, like A bird's nest.
The captain with dark eyes twitched his lips slightly, raised his head, and looked at the white clouds floating in the sky, feeling a little weak, "... You didn't stop me either."
"Now there is only this last short stretch of road left. It is impossible to go wrong. Look at the map or the road signs...it's the same."
…
Half an hour later.
The five-person awakened team finally saw the black tower representing the green shade from a distance.
The awakened person carrying a large backpack gritted his teeth, "Captain, from now on... forget it, we have reached the green shade, but when we go back, please stop giving random orders."
Several people checked their equipment and did not walk in immediately.
Captain Black Eyed looked very capable when he was not looking at the map. He glanced at several people and said, "From now on, we are the foreign awakened team."
As he spoke, Wu Mian looked solemn and restrained his breath little by little.
Finally settled on the fifth level of awakening.
The others did the same, holding their breath, controlling the fluctuations of their breath, and finally stabilized.
"It's not easy to control your aura. Fortunately, our Wu family has mastered the cultivation method."
"Hey, we are the first people in Jingcheng to master the cultivation method. Although some of the individual mercenaries are good at it, they don't know the cultivation method. After all, they are just wild people. I can fight two of them."
"But the green-shaded awakeners seem to have mastered an explosive method called "combat technique." "
As soon as a dumbfounded team member said something, the team fell silent instantly.
Wu Mian, who had dark circles under his eyes, coughed dryly, "Anyway, if we pretend to be alien awakeners, we may not have the chance to learn combat skills."
"What about that thing proposed by the Li family?"
"Since the superiors haven't made a decision yet, we can just wait for the opportunity to act. If there is a chance to force us, or if we discover the secret realm controlled by Lu Yin, we can either take action first or stand on the side of the Li family, but if that doesn't work..."
Although the Li family is a collaborator, there is no interest in talking about cooperation.
A normal big family would not do things as radically as the Li family.
Wu Mian couldn't be sure whether the Li family had some kind of trump card or had another purpose.
…
The Wu family pretended to be a team of awakeners and spent most of the day wandering around the shelter. They didn't feel tired at all, they just felt that time passed too fast.
Several people were sitting in a restaurant, devouring food.
“This mutant Pipi shrimp is pretty good, it’s delicious!”
"There seems to be plenty of seasoning here."
"There are many types of mutated sea beasts and other exotic animal meat. In our scene... we can't find so many delicious ingredients."
"It's also much cheaper... If I could eat the meat of exotic beasts every day, my cultivation speed would at least double."
The meat of exotic animals contains a lot of nutrients and energy. When ordinary people eat it, their physical fitness will improve and gradually strengthen.
They have mastered the cultivation method, can absorb energy better, and increase the speed of cultivation.
On the road to a higher level of life, talent and resources are indispensable.
"Captain, shall we go back to the hotel to practice later? Don't waste this big table of food."
Wu Mian shook his head and lowered his voice, "Have you forgotten our original purpose?"
The other people's expressions froze, they looked away and laughed a few times.
Wu Mian continued, "I have thought about it. Since there is no specific mission, it is better to find an adventure group to join. Those people... are said to be registered adventurers. They seem to have star ratings. The higher the star rating, the runes that can be purchased. The more equipment you have, you can even learn combat techniques that explode the power of energy, blood, and even source power."
It is also easier to explore and reach the purpose of green shade.
Just do it.
A few people had a full meal, paid the bill with some heartache, and came all the way to the Adventurer's Guild.
The neon light of Yuanli crystal lamp flashes, adding a bit of bright color to the dark night.
— Regarding the Adventurer Guild, Wu Mian and others have already investigated. To register as an adventurer, you only need to pay the cost of one source crystal. When creating an adventure group, they are divided into four categories: small, medium, large, and extra large. Based on their Financial resources, except for the special conditions required for very large adventure groups, even large adventure groups can be built.
"We don't have so much time to waste. Find a three-star adventure group to join and you can enjoy three-star treatment immediately..."
Wu Mian said, after registering as adventurers, they went out again and came to the small square outside the Adventurer's Guild.
Looking around, you can see at a glance that there are people shouting and there are several fixed rainproof booths, which are rented by well-known adventure groups to recruit new members.
He took a fancy to one of them, Zishan Adventure Group, which was a three-star large adventure group.
Wu Mian walked in with several others.
The awakened person sitting on the chair in charge of recruiting was an old man in his fifties. He raised his head and glanced, "Want to join our Zishan?"
"That's right."
Wu Mian's aura, which had converged to the fifth level, was mixed with momentum and spread out, "It's enough for us to join Zishan."
The face of the old man in charge of recruitment remained unchanged, "The strength of the fifth level of awakening is naturally up to the standard. However, when recruiting people for our Zishan Adventure Group, the level of awakening is only one factor, and multiple assessments are required."
"you say."
The corners of Wu Mian's mouth raised slightly, with strong confidence in his words.
Their auras are restrained, and they are awakened at level 7, 8, or 9. No matter what kind of test, it is easy for them.
The old man took out a few forms and said, "Fill in some basic information. We will check it later. I hope you won't make any mistakes."
Pretty formal.
Wu Mian secretly took it and took a look. At the top was written some basic information such as name, age, etc. He filled in the name he pretended to use when registering as an adventurer, not thinking that the fake name would be found out.
Keep looking down.
Awakening level, awakening time, tower of trial levels...
Wait, what the hell are the levels of the Tower of Trial!
Wu Mian wanted to ask, but in a blink of an eye he saw that his cousin had instructions below, so he suppressed his mood and continued reading.
[About the requirements for the number of floors of the Tower of Trial]:
[Only when you reach the 30th floor or above can you join Zishan and become an ordinary member of the adventure group. ]
[Get to level 40 or above and join Zishan. The adventure group will be rewarded with 100 internal contribution points and can become an elite member. ]
[Cross the forty-sixth floor or above and choose to join Zishan, and you will be immediately rewarded with 500 internal contribution points. High-level awakeners can obtain the position of squad leader, and low-level genius awakeners will receive personal guidance from the leader of Zishan. ]
There is also a list of things at the back, such as the price you need to pay once you quit after joining the group, etc.
Wu Mian read it word for word, but there was no key point he wanted to understand.
What does "Tower of Trial" have to do with joining an adventure group
He asked immediately.
Unexpectedly, the expressionless old recruitment man immediately sneered:
"What qualifications does a weak scumbag who can't even pass the 30th floor of the "Tower of Trial" have to join our Purple Mountain
I see that you guys have good momentum, but I didn’t expect that you are strong on the outside but capable on the inside. Could it be that you only have the twenty-fifth floor, or can’t you even get through to the twenty-fifth floor
Then don't even think about which adventure group you want to join. Just ask around in this square. The lowest requirement is that you need to have a record of the 20th floor of the "Tower of Trials". "
Wu Mian and others looked confused.
Confused for the second time.
Black people are confused.
In the end, he was driven away by the old man who recruited him with a disgusted look on his face.
…
Twenty minutes later, a few people found a corner to discuss.
"Captain, what should I do? I just asked around and found out that at least the twenty-level record of "Tower of Trial" is required, and that's only a two-star adventure group. "
It's not that there are adventure groups with lower requirements, but those are all one-star adventure groups. Instead of joining, it's better...
"How about we build an adventure group ourselves? With the strength of a few of us, it won't be easy to rise to three stars."
Wu Mian disagreed, "To upgrade from one star to two stars, or from two stars to three stars, you need to complete promotion tasks. Even with the best luck, it will take two days, but normally, it will take three to four days, four to five days, or even more than a week. It’s all possible.”
"Furthermore, an adventure group needs a lot of points to upgrade to a star. Although it can be replaced by source crystals, do we have that many source crystals?"
Others were stunned.
They have a lot of property, but most of it stays in Jingcheng and within the family. Naturally, it is impossible to take all of their wealth with them when they go out.
The source crystal required to upgrade to three stars may not be enough.
"Let's go to the training camp. The "Tower of Trial" is in the training camp. With our strength, it shouldn't take too much time to get through the 30th floor. "
…
ten minutes later.
Wu Mian and others who had applied for senior membership cards were stopped on the top floor of the training camp.
"What, you need to be a two-star adventurer or a member of a two-star adventure group to enter the top area?"
"This is wrong! Ordinary adventurers cannot enter the "Tower of Trial", so they cannot meet the recruitment requirements of the adventure group. But if they cannot enter the two-star adventure group, they will naturally not be able to pass the "Tower of Trial", otherwise they will fall into An infinite loop? "
"Is it possible that we can only become a two-star adventurer first and then complete the "Tower of Trial"? "
The awakened member of the garrison in front of the door pointed out a way, "If there is a guarantee from a two-star adventurer, you can also temporarily enter the top area and complete the "Tower of Trial" level. "
However,
I am not familiar with the place, where can I find someone to vouch for it
Spending time might not be impossible, but Wu Mian knew that what they lacked most now was time.
Sufficient information must be found out before senior officials make a decision.
"No matter, let's form an adventure group first and then make plans."
Wu Mian and others quickly left the training camp. When they passed by a group of people, their eyes suddenly froze and they turned around to look.
The group of people also happened to turn around, and their eyes met.
After a while, they seemed not to know each other and walked away as if nothing had happened.
"Captain, those people just now..."
Wu Mian looked solemn, "He is from the Ancestral Dragon Battle Group, the Forward Battalion. The leader is none other than the Commander of the Forward Battalion, Dao Feng. He is also the confidant of the person with the most authority in Jingcheng..."
…
"People from the Wu family are here too."
Dao Feng, who looked resolute and serious, said, "Ye family, Boss Huang, Linlang Chamber of Commerce... several forces, I didn't expect that they would also send people to Green Yin."
"On the contrary, it's the Li family." He frowned, "The Li family was obviously the first to suggest it, but they didn't see the Li family. Are they hiding?"
The shadows of these people are to hide in the green shade, restrain their aura, and disguise themselves as awakened people from outside.
The appearance has not changed.
The leaders of the spies sent by many forces are well-known masters, such as Wu Mian, the nightmare of the Wu family... These well-known masters can be recognized by the blade at a glance.
"Captain, what should we do? The two- and three-star adventure groups cannot join. Do we need to create a new adventure group? The Ye family has just created a family. The Wu family...Looking at their direction, they are also going to the Adventurer's Guild. We If we delay any longer, the initiative will be lost.”
Dao Feng pondered for a moment:
"People from the Li family should have sent people to Luyin and had conflicts with them... I didn't want to reveal my identity and come directly to the door before, because we are also from Jingcheng and the higher-ups of Luyin may not have good feelings toward us.
But now, we have so many top awakeners from various forces in Jingcheng. Even if they are disguised, they may have been noticed by Lu Yin. In this case, instead of aimlessly spying on information, it is better... to be honest and honest, maybe we can win. The trust of senior executives. "
To put it simply, they sell teammates... and spies from other forces.
Blade paused, "The chief has said that we don't necessarily have to stand on the opposite side of Luyin. Since many large shelters such as Lindong can cooperate with Luyin for a win-win situation, then our Jingcheng, as the largest shelter in Tiannan, So, there’s no reason why it can’t be done.”
"But... you can't just come to the door rashly. Tomorrow morning, we will go through the formal process and visit."
…
castle.
Lan Qingya, who is responsible for the internal intelligence of Luyin Administration, is reporting the situation to the director.
Tang Yu nodded, "In other words, there are a total of eight spies from eight forces in the territory."
He opened the territory map and looked at it. There were some small light red dots, but not many.
There are also some forces that are just little yellow dots.
"Keep an eye on them. I'll ask the awakened ones from the garrison to cooperate with the Intelligence Department." After a pause, "Have you checked the identities of the previous envoys?"
"It should be from the Li family in Jingcheng."
Tang Yu was still a little puzzled after hearing this.
I really don't remember what the Li family had to do with him.
Outside the secret realm of the Mage Alliance, the mercenary group slaughtered by Red Moon had long been forgotten by him. He did not know the identity of the mercenary group and did not think of it for a while.
Sudden,
A contract summons appeared in his mind.
Someone was caught at the Source Crystal Mine.
Tang Yu was slightly startled.
He thought that the first choice target for the spies' invasion was this most conspicuous castle. Unexpectedly, someone went to the Source Crystal Mine instead.
The idea is different and promising.
It is the stuff of good miners.
Tang Yu immediately stood up and called for Luo Zhe, "Accompany me to the mine."
