“Ji Wu Shuang and the others might be too nervous…”
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.
“Rustle-!”
At that moment, a faint sound came from the distance.
Sun Yi Fan’s relaxed heart immediately tensed up again.
“Who’s there?!”
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.
“Big brother, were you calling me?” The man said bewilderedly.
“Who are you, and what are you sneaking around here for?!” 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, “Big brother, I’m from the Herbal Department of Wang Deng Valley. I am here to look for herbs…”
A person from Wang Feng Valley!
Sun Yi Fan was startled but pretended to be at ease, coughing once, “So you’re from Wang Feng Valley, I’m from the Tiger Howl Gang…”
The Tiger Howl Gang?!
The thin man was startled again, then scratched his head, “Big brother, do you need something?”
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.
“What does your Herbal Department do, and why are you alone?” Sun Yi Fan was unsure whether the man in front was telling the truth, as there was no such information in the intelligence.
“Us?”
The thin man scratched his head again and explained, “We gather herbs. Our department has medics who can make various potions to enhance strength…”
“I’m from group eighteen; we have twenty people in total. The group leader is a threshold-level expert, waiting for us at the base…”
Sun Yi Fan observed carefully and saw that what the other party said did not seem to be false.
Especially since he didn’t 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, “The potions you make, can they elevate someone to the level of an ultimate fighter?”
“An ultimate fighter?!”
The thin man was shocked and quickly shook his head, “How could that be possible? An ultimate fighter, that’s someone who has to kill leader-level monsters…”
“Our Herbal Department has many types of potions. The strongest one can elevate someone to the level of a twenty-time enhancer…”
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, “How many times have you been enhanced?”
“I’m currently at seven times enhanced. If I have enough contribution points, I can exchange for the potion for eight times enhancement…” 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.
“Don’t you know that killing monsters can enhance your strength?!”
“I know…” 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:
“But that’s too dangerous…”
“We initially followed a strong person out of the newbie area…”
“When we left, we hardly encountered any dangers, so our strength didn’t increase much…”
“In this inner area, even a normal monster has strength over twenty or thirty times enhanced, which is simply not something we ordinary people can handle…”
The thin man hesitated for a moment, then continued, “Moreover, the risk of fighting monsters is too great, it’s very easy to die, so…”
Sun Yi Fan found it quite novel. In their area, there were almost no ordinary people left; most had undergone multiple enhancements.
“Are there many people like you?!”
“A lot. When I joined the Herbal Department, there were just over seventy groups, and now there are more than two hundred groups…”
The thin man said with a face full of luck, “I was lucky, someone in group eighteen had just died, which allowed me to join…”
“Like our group eighteen, at least the group leader is a threshold-level expert. In groups ranked over a hundred, the leaders’ strength doesn’t even reach threshold-level, so safety is definitely not as good as ours…”
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 hadn’t 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 wasn’t as good.
“So, a hundred contribution points equal one Zero Coin?!”
“Yes!”
According to the man, it was possible to survive in other departments as well.
“Then why are you working so hard in this Herbal Department?!”
The thin man became a bit embarrassed, awkwardly scratching his head, “Well, there are fairies in the valley’s brothel…”
It took a while for Sun Yi Fan to understand after hearing his explanation..
