200: Secret place deep in the mountains
“There’s a Secret Realm in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range? Is that true or false?”
“You little brat, you’re so kind as to tell us about discovering a Secret Realm?”
“If you dare to lie to me, I will never let you off.”
“Less talk, I’ll team up with you. Hurry and take me to that Secret Realm.”
“Stop being so mysterious and tell us, what type of Secret Realm is it?”
A group of people surrounded the yellow-haired Professional, their faces all showing an eager expression.
They were afraid that if they arrived late, all the good things in the Secret Realm would be taken by others.
The yellow-haired Professional chuckled and said, “Everyone, I know you’re in a hurry, but please don’t be.”
“Allow me to explain slowly.”
Everyone quieted down at his words, but their eyes were filled with unconcealed greed.
After all, no one wanted to miss out on an ownerless Secret Realm.
Leaving aside what the rules of the Secret Realm were, as long as they could get in, they might just be able to claim first place.
And then take all the treasures within the Secret Realm.
The yellow-haired man cleared his throat and continued, “I have to tell you first, the Secret Realm I discovered is deep within the Demonic Beast Mountain Range.”
“And there are also Devilkin guarding it, seemingly having their eyes on the things inside the Secret Realm as well.”
“Not to mention, there are quite a few Demonic Beasts above Rank 120 deep in the mountain range.”
“If we get discovered, it’s very likely we won’t make it back.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the greed in everyone’s eyes immediately receded a little.
Who didn’t know how dangerous the depths of the Demonic Beast Mountain Range were?
Even Professionals above Rank 130 dared not venture deep alone.
Once they encountered a Beast King, they would definitely be in grave danger.
And with the Secret Realm in such a dangerous place, some Professionals immediately began to have second thoughts.
What’s more, there were Devilkin next to the Secret Realm.
If they started fighting with the Devilkin, it would inevitably alert the surrounding Demonic Beasts.
At that time, not only would they not get the treasures in the Secret Realm, but they might also lose their lives.
Seeing this, the yellow-haired man sneered inwardly.
On the surface, however, he comforted everyone, saying, “Don’t worry, I, Huang Qiang, have been here for several years, and many people know me.”
“I will definitely not lie to you.”
“The reason I’m sharing the news of this Secret Realm is to organize people to first eliminate the Devilkin outside.”
“Afterward, we’ll enter the Secret Realm and divide the treasures within based on our individual abilities, how about that?”
Everyone pondered for a while, and soon someone spoke up.
“Huang Qiang, I trust you, I’m with you.”
“Do you know what Rank those Devilkin specifically are?”
“Yeah, what if those Devilkin are too high Rank and we can’t beat them?”
“Forget it, I’m not going, it’s too dangerous!”
Some people immediately had cold feet, shaking their heads and leaving.
Only a dozen people remained.
Song Ming was naturally among them.
After all, it was a Secret Realm, and he urgently needed resources, so he naturally couldn’t give up.
Moreover, it was his first time here, and he wasn’t very familiar with the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, so having an experienced person lead the way was good.
Huang Qiang frowned slightly at this.
However, he couldn’t force others to take risks with him.
He had discovered that Secret Realm by chance, so even if he couldn’t get in, there was no loss.
He then clapped his hands and said to everyone, “Alright, since you’ve all stayed, I’ll explain the specific situation.”
“There should be seven or eight of those Devilkin guarding the outer perimeter of the Secret Realm, and their Ranks are all above 120.”
“And there are also several Demonic Beast habitats around the Secret Realm.”
“So, when we go this time, in addition to taking them by surprise, we must also act quickly to avoid causing too much commotion.”
“Otherwise, if we attract Demonic Beasts, we’ll all die there.”
“Did everyone understand?”
Everyone listened carefully and nodded.
Huang Qiang showed a satisfied expression and chuckled, “Then let’s start with me. State your Profession and Rank so we can formulate our tactics.”
“I am Huang Qiang, Rank 123, my Profession is Shadow Assassin!”
Everyone was somewhat enlightened.
No wonder Huang Qiang was able to discover that Secret Realm.
Assassins are best at tracking and stealth, so it was normal for the Devilkin guarding the Secret Realm not to discover him.
Immediately after, the others also reported their Professions.
“Zhang Tao, Rank 125, Profession is Sword-Shield Knight.”
“Su Rourou, Rank 121, Profession is Holy Priest.”
“Lu Ye Zhou, Rank 124, ...”
...
“Song Ming, Rank 100, Profession is Myriad Laws Celestial Master!”
When it was Song Ming’s turn, he said without any hesitation.
However, after he stated his Rank and Profession,
Everyone was slightly stunned.
Then they all turned their gaze to Song Ming.
“No, buddy, you’re not joking, are you?”
“A Rank 100 newbie shouldn’t come to join the fun, okay?”
“We’re going to the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, not for a hike. People die there.”
“What kind of trash Profession is Myriad Laws Celestial Master? Never even heard of it.”
“Buddy, here’s a suggestion: go find another team to take you. Talk to us when you’ve leveled up!”
Everyone present spoke in a flurry, their tone full of disdain for Song Ming.
It was simply because Song Ming’s Rank was not enough to be considered anything in the Black Land.
If they brought such a low-Rank Professional, it would be difficult for them to kill those Devilkin in a short time.
There was even the risk of attracting Demonic Beasts.
Therefore, all the Professionals present were unwilling to bring Song Ming, this deadweight.
Even Huang Qiang was visibly impatient, directly shouting at Song Ming, “Where did this student come from? You haven’t even fully grown up and you’re trying to follow others into the Demonic Beast Mountain Range to grind monsters.”
“I, your father, am not running a charity. Get lost quickly and don’t delay our important business!”
He was already a bit annoyed that there were too few people, making the plan for the Secret Realm not very secure.
Who knew that a Rank 100 newbie had also snuck in.
Everyone else was a high-Rank player above Rank 120, so they naturally didn’t want to bring such a deadweight.
So Huang Qiang decisively told Song Ming to leave the team.
Not to delay their exploration of the Secret Realm.
Moreover, most of the Demonic Beasts in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range were above Rank 110.
They were simply not something a Rank 100 guy could deal with.
Song Ming heard this but wasn’t annoyed.
He merely let out a cold laugh.
He had originally intended to blend into the team to familiarize himself with the situation in the mountain range and explore the Secret Realm along the way.
But he hadn’t expected the Rank discrimination in the Black Land to be so severe.
It seemed that entering the Secret Realm through conventional methods was definitely not going to happen.
Thinking of this, Song Ming no longer concealed anything.
Just as well, he didn’t want to team up with this group of people anyway.
This way, it actually relieved him of many concerns.
He then walked up to Huang Qiang and said, word for word, “How about this, tell me the exact location of the Secret Realm, and I’ll spare your life!”
