Chapter 32 The Pass is Hard to Cross
"I found an apartment, and I can move in today. I'm sorry to bother you these next few days."
In the hot pot restaurant, Yang Feiqi told Xu Jian, who was sitting across from him, about his decision.
"Brother Yang, have you found a company?" Xu Jian asked.
"No, but a newly established company has invited me, and I'm still considering it."
"Be careful about going to newly established companies," Xu Jian said seriously.
"How so?" Yang Feiqi asked.
"The Special Operations Center isn't something that can be built and then allow tomb raiders to enter any map; it still needs to be upgraded."
The Special Operations Center is divided into ten levels. The Special Operations Center built at the cost of one African star is only a Level 1 Special Operations Center. The training academy we attended previously only had a Level 1 Special Operations Center, so they could only make money by running the training academy.
"Then why don't they upgrade?" Yang Feiqi asked.
"Upgrading requires a lot of rare gold and red collectibles, and you also need to recruit a group of thugs to do departmental missions within the Special Operations Center. Only when the department level is raised can you use collectibles to upgrade the Special Operations Center."
If you can't train qualified henchmen yourself, you can only rely on hiring outsiders to do departmental tasks.
On the black market, it costs at least 50 million universal currency to complete all the tasks required to upgrade from a Level 1 Special Operations Center to a Level 2 Special Operations Center!
During this period, all the Haff coins lost by the thugs while performing missions had to be paid for by the Special Operations Center itself.
As soon as Xu Jian said this, Yang Feiqi knew that the departmental missions in this world were definitely much more difficult than those in the world before he transmigrated.
The departmental missions he used to do in games were quite nasty, so if the difficulty were increased further, it would definitely be worth that much money.
"Therefore, many newly established companies like to cheat and deceive all kinds of tomb raiders into working for them to upgrade their special operations centers."
After you've spent a year or two painstakingly upgrading their Special Operations Center, you might think you can enjoy all the benefits and perks of a high-level Special Operations Center, such as cheaper ammunition and equipment, and weekly vouchers for standard or elite equipment.
They'll tell you you're dreaming. Because once the Special Operations Center's level goes up, it will naturally have many powerful escorts. Tomb raiders will flock to them, and then they'll ruthlessly kick you out, making room for the newcomers in the Special Operations Ward.
Xu Jian's words were clearly tinged with personal emotion.
So Yang Feiqi cautiously inquired, "How do you know these things?"
"I have a distant cousin who helped a company upgrade from a Level 1 Special Service Center to a Level 6 Special Service Center."
Just when he thought he could finally experience the top-secret space map, he was refused entry because he wasn't qualified enough. He was also told that he would only be responsible for training new recruits on the regular maps from now on.
My cousin was so angry that he quit that company and became a tomb raider.
Now Yang Feiqi knows who told him so much about the delta.
"Since your cousin has become a tomb raider, why don't you try becoming one too?"
Yang Feiqi then asked.
"It's too tough for individual gold diggers. Not only is there no insurance, but their ability to bear risks is also poor. If you go in with bad equipment, it's hard to escape successfully. If you go in with good equipment, and you fail to escape two or three times in a row, you'll go bankrupt and won't have enough Half Coins to enter the map again."
If I were to become a tomb raider now, I'd only be a burden to my cousin. So I want to find a reliable company to work for for a year or two first.
"I see." Yang Feiqi nodded and didn't say anything more.
He doesn't have a good plan for the future, let alone help Xu Jian.
"Oh, right," Xu Jian said, remembering something.
"If your evacuation fails one day and you don't want to wait a month, you can contact my cousin. He has connections to get things that can shorten the penalty time for failing an evacuation."
"There's such a thing?" Yang Feiqi's eyes widened.
He had been very careful every time he entered the map, because he was worried that the month-long ban on entering the map after a failed evacuation would be too severe.
I never expected there would be something that could shorten this punishment.
"Special operations centers at level 5 and above can obtain a new building, the Bar, after completing certain special missions."
The bar offers drinks with various effects, including one called "Difficult to Cross the Mountain Pass".
Purple-quality "Guan Shan Nan Yue" can shorten the ban on entering the map by one week. Gold-quality "Guan Shan Nan Yue" reduces the ban by two weeks, while the rarest red-quality "Guan Shan Nan Yue" can completely remove the ban.
However, the high-quality red-grade ...
Only the gold and purple ones are sold by company employees.
The purple one is worth one gold collectible, while the gold one is worth at least five gold collectibles.
"I'll contact you if I need anything later," Yang Feiqi said to Xu Jian.
"No problem." Xu Jian nodded decisively.
Although he can't quite understand his old classmate who graduated from the same training academy, Yang Feiqi is clearly doing much better than him now.
Befriend Yang Feiqi; he might be able to help you out in the future.
After finishing his meal, Yang Feiqi went to Xu Jian's house to pack his luggage.
The apartment I rented was the kind where I could move in immediately with just my suitcase, so I didn't need to buy much furniture.
The rent isn't cheap either; it's located in the city center, a two-bedroom apartment, and costs eight thousand yuan a month.
However, living in an apartment also brings many conveniences, such as daily life, which can be taken care of by a housekeeper or hired help.
Yang Feiqi has saved several hundred thousand yuan by selling his gold collectibles, which is enough for him to spend.
The next day, he took a taxi from his apartment to Flying Tiger Company and found Lu Qianqian sitting behind the front desk.
"Do you have time to come to my office for a chat?" Lu Qianqian stood up as soon as she saw Yang Feiqi approaching.
Lu Qianqian dressed very cleverly today: a white high-slit cheongsam, black stockings, and high heels that seemed to last forever.
To be honest, it's beautiful.
Yang Feiqi couldn't help but take a few more glances.
"Sure." Yang Feiqi also had something to discuss with her, so he followed her to her office.
"Our boss has made a huge sacrifice."
Seeing this, Liu couldn't help but wipe away non-existent tears, then thought to himself, 'If the company's special operations department can be promoted to level three or above this year, my salary should increase quite a bit.'
After entering the office, Lu Qianqian gestured for Yang Feiqi to sit on the sofa.
She sat down opposite Yang Feiqi, and before Yang Feiqi could speak, she spoke first.
"I know you might think you can do well without a company, but I have something here that you'd have a hard time getting even as a tomb raider. You can look at it before you answer me."
After Lu Qianqian finished speaking, she reached out and touched her own body.
