âJi Wu Shuang and the others might be too nervousâŠâ
When Sun Yi Fan thought of this, he felt less pressured.
On his first solo mission, even though he had gathered quite a bit of intelligence and even had a map, Sun Yi Fan still felt uneasy, unsure of how to respond if he encountered other people.
âRustle-!â
At that moment, a faint sound came from the distance.
Sun Yi Fanâs relaxed heart immediately tensed up again.
âWhoâs there?!â
From afar, he shouted loudly, drawing his weapon while shifting his weight back, ready to flee at any moment.
A moment later, a thin man, looking to be around seventeen or eighteen years old, emerged from the bushes. He was carrying a bamboo basket made from branches on his back.
âBig brother, were you calling me?â The man said bewilderedly.
âWho are you, and what are you sneaking around here for?!â Sun Yi Fan shouted.
Seeing a living person suddenly, his vigilance skyrocketed, and he observed his surroundings while speaking, to prevent being surrounded.
Sneaking around?!
The thin man was stunned for a moment, realizing he was being referred to, and quickly explained, âBig brother, Iâm from the Herbal Department of Wang Deng Valley. I am here to look for herbsâŠâ
A person from Wang Feng Valley!
Sun Yi Fan was startled but pretended to be at ease, coughing once, âSo youâre from Wang Feng Valley, Iâm from the Tiger Howl GangâŠâ
The Tiger Howl Gang?!
The thin man was startled again, then scratched his head, âBig brother, do you need something?â
He noticed that the man opposite him was not dressed like him, and moreover, anyone who could travel from the Tiger Howl Gang must be an expert.
âWhat does your Herbal Department do, and why are you alone?â Sun Yi Fan was unsure whether the man in front was telling the truth, as there was no such information in the intelligence.
âUs?â
The thin man scratched his head again and explained, âWe gather herbs. Our department has medics who can make various potions to enhance strengthâŠâ
âIâm from group eighteen; we have twenty people in total. The group leader is a threshold-level expert, waiting for us at the baseâŠâ
Sun Yi Fan observed carefully and saw that what the other party said did not seem to be false.
Especially since he didnât find any weapons on the man, only a worn tool resembling a sickle.
Thus, he believed about seventy percent of what the thin man said, then asked, âThe potions you make, can they elevate someone to the level of an ultimate fighter?â
âAn ultimate fighter?!â
The thin man was shocked and quickly shook his head, âHow could that be possible? An ultimate fighter, thatâs someone who has to kill leader-level monstersâŠâ
âOur Herbal Department has many types of potions. The strongest one can elevate someone to the level of a twenty-time enhancerâŠâ
Twenty times enhanced?!
Sun Yi Fan was stunned; did one still need potions to achieve such a number of enhancements?
He felt a sense of absurdity and asked, âHow many times have you been enhanced?â
âIâm currently at seven times enhanced. If I have enough contribution points, I can exchange for the potion for eight times enhancementâŠâ The thin man said proudly.
Sun Yi Fan was silent for a long time before he realized that he might have made a mountain out of a molehill.
The other party might really be a weakling.
âDonât you know that killing monsters can enhance your strength?!â
âI knowâŠâ The thin man seemed to understand that Sun Yi Gan was the type to risk his life on the edge of a knife and hurriedly explained:
âBut thatâs too dangerousâŠâ
âWe initially followed a strong person out of the newbie areaâŠâ
âWhen we left, we hardly encountered any dangers, so our strength didnât increase muchâŠâ
âIn this inner area, even a normal monster has strength over twenty or thirty times enhanced, which is simply not something we ordinary people can handleâŠâ
The thin man hesitated for a moment, then continued, âMoreover, the risk of fighting monsters is too great, itâs very easy to die, soâŠâ
Sun Yi Fan found it quite novel. In their area, there were almost no ordinary people left; most had undergone multiple enhancements.
âAre there many people like you?!â
âA lot. When I joined the Herbal Department, there were just over seventy groups, and now there are more than two hundred groupsâŠâ
The thin man said with a face full of luck, âI was lucky, someone in group eighteen had just died, which allowed me to joinâŠâ
âLike our group eighteen, at least the group leader is a threshold-level expert. In groups ranked over a hundred, the leadersâ strength doesnât even reach threshold-level, so safety is definitely not as good as oursâŠâ
Sun Yi Fan gradually lowered his guard, moved closer, and started to learn more about Wang Feng Valley.
According to the thin man, most people who hadnât reached threshold-level, like them, were in various logistical departments.
Their department was considered to have a higher risk. There were many others involved in infrastructure or sanitation, all safer than theirs, but accordingly, their treatment wasnât as good.
âSo, a hundred contribution points equal one Zero Coin?!â
âYes!â
According to the man, it was possible to survive in other departments as well.
âThen why are you working so hard in this Herbal Department?!â
The thin man became a bit embarrassed, awkwardly scratching his head, âWell, there are fairies in the valleyâs brothelâŠâ
It took a while for Sun Yi Fan to understand after hearing his explanation..
