Chapter 450: Continue Exploring

For the next few days, Ye Cang brought his party to level in the Black Peaks mountain range. Along the way, he met many players who would either bow or salute while greeting him, “Greetings President!”

Ye Cang waved his hand and their group advanced towards Anya’s Ghost Peak. He had employed the local hunters in the northern guardpost to be in charge of safety for the workers there. Regarding Anya’s recovery, many hunters were extremely thankful, because after Anya fully recovers, they would be able to go there and gain enlightenment on the hunt…

Ye Cang stopped at the base of Ghost Peak, “Last time, we stopped exploring here. There are very few players who can make it this far, and those who could would have run out of supplies by now so wouldn’t want to come. While Anya’s shrine and the stop-over villages are still under construction, let’s go check out the south-western mountains… ”

“Father’s idea is not bad. The Black Peaks mountain range is very large. The players and ourselves together have at most explored 30%! It could be said that a majority of it is still unknown. Of the remaining 70+%, one part lies past Ghost Peak, with another two parts lying east of Jam’s shrine and north of Mallow’s shrine. All three of these directions still lead to the unknown. The levels of the creatures and demon beasts there are nearly doubled, so most players are still at the three shrines…” Little Ye Tian took out a pen and connected the three points, marking the safe area. She then marked the few guard posts in the Black Peaks, which were practically all within this area. There were only two guard posts situated deep within the mountain range. One of them was at the south-west of Ghost Peak and the other, far north past Mallows shrine. The two of them were called guard posts, but they were really just hunting villages conscripted by the Planetary Empire, becoming guard posts in name only. “The region around the three shrines is where a majority of player activity is concentrated… Past that, the demon beast’s strength becomes too much for ordinary players…”

“Sister Rose and the others went towards Jam’s shrine.” FrozenCloud pointed to the area east of Jam’s shrine.

“It must be related to their quest…” SpyingBlade smiled.

“In these few days, I want to break through to level 20!” Ye Cang looked at his experience bar which was 50% away from level 20. At level 20, he would be able to return to the association and learn a second set of skills.

“True, let’s first help boss obtain his second set of skills and talents, then go back to Black Rock City’s association. Hehe…” OldWangFromNextDoor began to laugh like a creep. Everyone glanced at him sympathetically, then sighed. They directly circled around Ghost Peak into the depths of the mountain range, leaving behind the somewhat embarrassed Wang.

“I’ll definitely get a girlfriend this year!” OldWangFromNextDoor shouted in humiliation at everyone’s back.

“Who wants to bet?” Ye Cang said without even looking back at the others, as he scouted a path for them.

“2 million federal dollars on him not getting one this year…” FrozenCloud directly laid down her bet.

“I’ll also bet 2 million… on him not getting one.” Wu Na said, somewhat distressed over her wages.

“I’ll bet, I’ll bet. I bet that Wang can do it! I’ll bet, I’ll bet, umm, 3 million federal dollars…” Lin Le went all in with his allowance money.

Ye Cang and Zhang ZhengXiong raised their brows in surprise. “We’re with Lele! 3 million!”

“I’ll bet 1 million federal dollars, betting against…” Fang Ci took out his first month’s wages and bonus.

SpyingBlade smiled with his arms crossed, “3 million, also against.”

Wang saw from the back that none of them had paid him any attention and were each making their bets. He sighed heavily. Boss is really too cruel.

Then he caught up, “I’ll bet 1 million that I can!”

“You’ve got guts! A true man!” Zhang ZhengXiong approved of Wang for the first time.

“Do you have a target yet?” Wu Na teased.

“Little Jade!” Old Wang said seriously. Everyone froze, then all turned around.
