Chapter 361 -353: The Spy Facing Obstacles Everywhere (Large Chapter)_2
“Indeed.”
Wu Mian retracted his aura to the Fifth Tier, mixed with momentum, and radiated it outward, “That should be enough for us to join Purple Mountain, right?”
The old man in charge of recruitment remained expressionless, “A Fifth-Tier Awakener’s strength certainly meets the standard, but our Purple Mountain Adventure Group considers multiple factors for recruitment, which requires several assessments.”
“You tell me.”
Wu Mian’s lips slightly curled up, his words radiating strong confidence.
Their aura was contained; they were really Fifth-Tier Awakeners, and no matter what the test, it would be as easy as flipping their hand.
The old man pulled out a few forms, “Fill these out—some basic information. We will verify this information later, and I hope you haven’t falsified anything.”
Pretty formal.
Wu Mian thought to himself and took a look, filling in the false name he had used when registering as an adventurer, not expecting it to be found out.
He continued reading.
Awakening Tier, time since Awakening, Trial Tower levels…
Wait, what the hell is Trial Tower levels!
Wu Mian wanted to ask, but then he saw more explanation below and suppressed his emotions, continuing to read.
[About Trial Tower level requirements]:
[Reach at least level thirty to join Purple Mountain as an ordinary member of the adventure group.]
[Reach level forty or above to join Purple Mountain and receive a reward of 100 Internal Contribution Points, and become an elite member.]
[Reach level forty-six or above to choose to join Purple Mountain, immediately receive 500 Internal Contribution Points, high-tier Awakeners can obtain a team leader position, and low-tier talented Awakeners will be personally mentored by the Commander of Purple Mountain.]
The form listed a bunch of other items, such as the cost of quitting the group once joined, etc.
Wu Mian read every word, however, it missed a crucial detail he wanted to know.
What does the Trial Tower have to do with joining an adventure group?
He asked right away.
Unexpectedly, the emotionless recruitment old man immediately sneered:
“A weakling who can’t even pass the thirtieth floor of the ‘Trial Tower’ has no qualification to join our Purple Mountain?
You guys look strong, but it seems you are hollow, perhaps you’ve only reached level twenty-five, or haven’t even reached level twenty?
Then don’t even think about joining any adventure groups. Just ask anyone around this square, even the lowest requirement needs the achievement of the ‘Trial Tower’ level twenty.”
Wu Mian and the others were dumbfounded.
Dumbfounded for the second time.
Black man dumbfounded.
Finally, they were disdainfully driven away by the recruiting old man.
…
Twenty minutes later, the group found a corner to discuss.
“Commander, what should we do? I just asked around, everyone needs at least ‘Trial Tower’ level twenty achievements, and that’s just for two-star adventure groups.”
It’s not like there weren’t any lower require under-star adventure groups available, but joining those might as well…
“Why don’t we create our own adventure group? With our strength, reaching three stars should be a breeze.”
Wu Mian disagreed, “Upgrading from one-star to two-star, from two-star to three-star, all requires completion of promotion missions. In the best-case scenario, it may take two days, but normally, three to four days, four to five days, or even more than a week could be possible.”
“Moreover, upgrading an adventure group requires a large number of points, and although we can use Source Crystals instead, do we have that many Source Crystals?”
The others were stunned.
They had considerable wealth, but most of it was left in Jing City or with their families. Naturally, they couldn’t bring all their assets when leaving home.
The amount of Source Crystals needed to upgrade to three stars might not be enough.
“Let’s go to the training camp; the Trial Tower is there. With our strength, passing the thirty levels shouldn’t take too much time.”
…
Ten minutes later.
Wu Mian, who had processed an advanced membership card along with his group, was stopped at 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-tier area?”
“That’s not right! Ordinary adventurers can’t access the ‘Trial Tower,’ so they can’t meet the recruitment requirements of the adventure groups. But if you can’t enter a two-star adventure group, naturally you can’t attempt the ‘Trial Tower,’ isn’t this a vicious cycle?”
“Can I only honestly become a two-star adventurer first, then enter the ‘Trial Tower’ challenge?”
The Awakener from the Guardian Corps at the gate pointed out a way, “If a two-star adventurer guarantees you, you can temporarily enter the top area to take the ‘Trial Tower’ challenge.”
However,
being strangers in a strange land, where can one find someone to vouch for them?
It might be feasible to spend time on this, but Wu Mian knew clearly that what they lacked the most now was time.
They must gather enough information before the upper echelons make a decision.
“Never mind, let’s establish an adventure group first, then plan further.”
Wu Mian and others quickly left the training camp, and as they brushed past a group of people, his gaze suddenly sharpened and he looked back.
That group also happened to turn around, and their eyes collided.
In a moment, they pretended not to recognize each other and walked away as if nothing had happened.
“Commander, those people just now…”
Wu Mian’s expression was solemn. “They are from the Ancestor Dragon Battle Group, the Vanguard Camp. The leading man is Blade, the commander of the Vanguard Camp, and also one of the most influential aides in Jing City…”
“The people from the Wu Family are also here.”
Blade, stern and resolute, spoke, “The Ye Family, Boss Huang, the Linlang Chamber of Commerce… several forces, unexpectedly they’ve all sent people to Green Shadow.”
“As for the Li Family,” he frowned, “the Li Family was the first to propose this, yet none of them are seen. Have they gone into hiding?”
These people’s hiding meant blending into Green Shadow, concealing their auras, and disguising themselves as outsiders.
Their appearances had not changed.
Many scouts sent by various forces had famous experts as leaders, such as Wu Mian of Wu Family’s Nightmare… Blade could recognize these renowned experts at a glance.
“Commander, what do we do? We can’t join the two or three-star adventure groups. Do we need to create a new one? Just now, people from the Ye Family have already established one, and the Wu Family… judging by their direction, are heading to the adventurer guild. If we delay further, we’ll lose the initiative.”
Blade pondered briefly.
“The people from the Li Faction should have sent someone to Green Shadow and had conflicts before… I didn’t reveal our identities directly before because we’re also from Jing City, and the upper echelons of Green Shadow might not think highly of us.
But now, with so many top Awakeners from various forces arriving in Green Shadow, even if they are disguised, Green Shadow might have already noticed. So, rather than exploring aimlessly, might as well be open… and we might gain the trust of the upper echelons of Green Shadow.”
Simply put, it was about betraying the spies from other forces.
Blade paused, “The leader said, we don’t necessarily have to stand against Green Shadow. If places like Lindong and other large Sanctuaries can cooperate with Green Shadow for mutual benefit, there’s no reason why Jing City, as the largest Sanctuary in Tiannan, can’t achieve that.”
“However… we can’t just barge in recklessly. Tomorrow morning, we’ll visit them officially, following the formal process.”
…
Castle.
Lan Qingya, responsible for Green Shadow’s internal intelligence, was reporting to the director.
Tang Yu nodded, “So, there are scouts from eight forces within our territory.”
He opened the map of the territory and saw a few faint red dots, not many.
And some forces were represented by small yellow dots.
“Keep a close eye on them. I’ll have the Awakeners of the Guardian Corps cooperate with the Intelligence Department,” he paused, “Have you clarified the identities of those envoys from before?”
“They should be people from the Li Family of Jing City.”
Tang Yu was still a bit puzzled.
He couldn’t recall any past grievances with the Li Family.
The mercenary corps slaughtered by the Red Moon outside the Mage Alliance’s Secret Realm had long been forgotten by him, and he was also unclear about the identity of the mercenary corps, failing to remember them for the moment.
Suddenly,
a contract transmission appeared in his mind.
Someone had been caught at the Source Crystal Mine.
Tang Yu was slightly startled.
He had thought the primary target for spy infiltration would be this most conspicuous castle; unexpectedly, someone had run off to the Source Crystal Mine instead.
A different thinker with potential.
Material for a good miner.
Tang Yu immediately stood up and called Luo Zhe, “Accompany me on a trip to the mine.”
