Chapter 493 - Northern Abyss (2/2)

Qin Feng and Bai Li alighted and walked toward the gate.

“We are here for the C-tier a.s.sessment.” Qin Feng spoke and asked Bai Li to display her mission card.

“Only the two of you?” The guard looked at them curiously. He was apparently unconvinced by Qin Feng and Bai Li’s capability.

“More than enough,” Qin Feng replied confidently.

The B-tier apt.i.tude user found Qin Feng’s answer funny but he did not say anything.

“We just let a party through earlier. You have to wait here until there are ten candidates.”

Qin Feng did not protest and waited patiently. Chui Yang and his bodyguard reached not long after. They were still short of heads. However, the B-tier apt.i.tude user seemed to recognize Chui Yang and his bodyguard.

“Master Chui, Mr. Liu!”

“Good day, Captain Yang Pi!”

“Are you here for the C-tier mission?” Yang Pi was baffled. He quietly wondered what brought the C-tier candidates to the abyss today. ‘Don’t they understand how dangerous this place is?’

“Yes,” Liu Yue answered. Chui Yang, on the other hand, was busy trying to strike a conversation with Qin Feng and Bai Li again. He was more courageous this time with Liu Yue by his side.

“Hey bro! What a coincidence!” Chui Yang said insincerely.

Qin Feng was not fond of a rich kid like him. It was easy to tell that the young man was a descendent of a well-known family since the B-tier guard treated them so differently.

“Coincidence or not, I think you know best,” Qin Feng replied coldly.

“Haha. I am here to make sure the two of you don’t throw away your life this easily. Why not tag along with us? It’s safer to have a B-tier apt.i.tude user around!”

“Thanks for the offer but no thanks.”

“Don’t reject me so quickly. Let’s ask for the lady’s opinion. I haven’t gotten your name yet, too!”

Unfortunately, both of them were not enthused to talk to him.

The B-tier guard felt a little awkward, while Liu Yue was unhappy with their att.i.tude. “Know your manners. My young master is being kind and has offered to help you. It’s one thing that you don’t appreciate it. But now you are just being rude. You should at least tell us your name!”

Qin Feng pulled a long face and chastised him, “You aren’t worth my politeness.”

Liu Yue frowned out of anger. “Watch your tongue, young man.” He did not expect a C-tier to be acting so arrogantly in front of him.

Yang Pi did not want trouble, at least not in front of the gate. There were surveillance drones around this area. Besides, Qin Feng’s badge showed that he was a governor. It would be extremely troublesome if something were to happen to him under his watch.

“Calm down. I will give face to Master Chui and open the gate for you all. You can settle your dispute in there.” They could do whatever they wanted once they were inside the abyss. He could not care less.

“Fine!” Liu Yue was infuriated. Chui Yang, in contrast, was stiffened by the heated exchange. He only wanted to get acquainted with the beautiful lady and never thought that the situation would escalate like that.

Qin Feng did not mind since he wanted to enter the abyss as soon as possible.

Yang Pi took out four palm-sized bronze lanterns and handed it to them. “The Northern Abyss does not have much light. This runic equipment would light up to thirty meters around you. It also helps to repel the weaker beasts and keep you safe from being mobbed by the beasts. Finally, it also serves as a recorder to help you register your kill count and exchange for resources later. To rent this, you will need to first deposit 50 million. It’s up to you whether you want to take it or not!”
