Chapter 43 Cooperation With The Young Lady
Lu Yu looked at the three people in front of him and was slightly surprised. He didn’t expect to meet others in this wilderness.
“Hello, my name is Yun Zirou.”
The gorgeous girl in front of him walked toward him, which made Lu Yu feel a little strange.
“Hello, my name is Lu Yu. Looking at the three of you, you should be from the same family, right?”
Yun Zirou nodded, and she turned to look at Xiao Qing.
“Xiao Qing, you can talk to him about the rest.”
Xiao Qing, the maid beside her, nodded and walked to Lu Yu.
Yun Zirou was not good at negotiating deals, so she left it to Xiao Qing to handle.
Xiao Qing came to Lu Yu and said, “Mr. Lu Yu, I’ll give you a chance to earn 100,000 for free. As long as you fulfill our headcount.”
Lu Yu chuckled, “100,000 dollars? Who are you looking down on? I’m not joining!”
Xiao Qing was neither anxious nor impatient. She explained, “Although the money is not much, what you need to do is very simple. You just need to accompany us into the secret realm and wait for us to come out. You don’t need to do anything during the whole process. You just need to be an extra headcount.”
Lu Yu thought for a moment and asked, “You just said that you want me to enter a secret realm? Where is it?”
Xiao Qing pointed at the cave behind her. “As long as you enter that cave, you can enter the secret realm.”
100,000 was too little for Lu Yu. He didn’t care about this bit of money at all.
However, Lu Yu was very interested in the reward of this secret realm.
The items contained within it were probably far more than 100,000 dollars.
Lu Yu looked at Xiao Qing and said, “I don’t want to negotiate about this with you. Among the three of you, the one with the highest status should be Yun Zirou, right?”
As he said this, Lu Yu walked toward Yun Zirou.
Xiao Qing quickly came in front of Yun Zirou and stopped Lu Yu.
However, Yun Zirou pushed Xiao Qing away and looked at Lu Yu.
“If you want to negotiate this deal with me, you can. So, are you willing to cooperate with me this time?”
Yun Zirou looked at Lu Yu calmly. As she was in a rush, she hoped Lu Yu would agree as soon as possible.
However, she couldn’t show her anxiety, or she would be at a disadvantage.
“If I want to cooperate with you, you’ve got to at least state where you came from. Otherwise, who knows if you guys are good or evil?”
Lu Yu’s question made Yun Zirou hesitate for a moment, but she still said it out loud.
“Alright then. My name is Yun Zirou, I’ve already said this. I’m the daughter of the head of the Yun family in Cloud City. The person next to me is my butler. This is Xiao Qing, my maid.”
Lu Yu sized up the three of them. Their clothes were outstanding, and they looked like they came from a prominent family.
After Yun Zirou finished speaking, the three of them looked at Lu Yu earnestly, hoping that Lu Yu would give them some reaction.
After all, the Yun family was quite influential in Cloud City. Most people have heard of the powerful Yun family.
Yun Zirou was the publicly acknowledged goddess of the entire Cloud City. She had the appearance and figure that made countless guys from other wealthy families craze for her.
However, after Lu Yu heard it, he only let out a simple “Oh.”
“Since you’ve already announced your household, I’m relieved. Let’s enter the secret realm.”
Yun Zirou looked at Lu Yu, flabbergasted. “No, I said I’m the daughter of the Yun Family?”
Lu Yu nodded. “I heard it. I’m not deaf.”
Yun Zirou held her hands to her forehead and was utterly speechless. “You must be from another place. Somewhere far away.”
The three of them were disappointed, but they did not say anything more.
Lu Yu could roughly guess that Yun Zirou’s family was not ordinary. That was probably why she felt that his calm reaction was abnormal.
“Although I have never entered a secret realm, I understand it.”
“Let me get straight to the point. I want the reward for this secret realm.”
As soon as Lu Yu finished speaking, Yun Zirou was immediately displeased.
“What do you mean? You’re asking for a lot right from the start, aren’t you? Do you want to hog all the rewards for yourself right from the start? How are we supposed to work together with you like this?”
Butler Lin quickly comforted her, “Miss, don’t be anxious. We’ll listen to his explanation.”
Lu Yu explained, “I’m not here to just be an extra headcount if I cooperate with you guys.”
“Our cooperation will be carried out according to the rules of the secret realm. After completing the secret realm, the rewards will be distributed according to the rules.”
“Other than the overall team rating, there will also be a weighted score based on the four ratings of damage received, physical damage dealt, spell damage dealt, and healing done. The final individual rating will be obtained based on these scores. Those with the higher rating will receive the secret realm’s rewards first.”
“It shouldn’t be a problem for us to act according to the rules, right?”
Although Yun Zirou was confused, she still agreed.
She had never entered a secret realm before, so she naturally did not understand the rules.
She also understood that Lu Yu was not asking for too much, but she felt he was acting very confident.
At the same time, she also became highly confident. Since they were subjected to the realm’s rules, she was sure that she would definitely get the highest rating and obtain the rewards of the secret realm!
“Alright, we will follow the rules. But I am telling you, I will definitely get the rewards this time!”
Looking at her confident act, Lu Yu only smiled faintly.
“You haven’t even entered, yet you’re already boasting. What if you get slapped in the face?”
Yun Zirou smiled smugly, “Do you know which university I’m going to?”
“It’s Clanorth University!”
Before Lu Yu could start guessing, she answered quickly.
“So, do you still think you have a chance to beat me?”
When Yun Zirou saw that Lu Yu was the same age as her, she knew that she would surely win!
After all, Clanorth University was the top university in the country. Those who could enter this university were all the top geniuses in the country.
She was one of these top geniuses! No one could compare to her.
It was this confidence that made her believe that she would undoubtedly win against Lu Yu.
However, Lu Yu only shrugged indifferently, “We’ll know the result after we enter.”
“Alright, I’ll give you a chance to witness the elegance of a top-notch genius!”
Following that, the four of them arrived at the entrance of the secret realm.
This place was like a teleportation portal. Once they entered, they would head to another space.
Yun Zirou raised her right hand. The ring on her slender jade finger flashed with light, and a pile of equipment appeared before her eyes.
Let’s make preparations first before entering the secret realm. Let me put on my equipment first.”
Lu Yu also revealed his storage ring. After the light flashed, his equipment also appeared on the ground.
Usually, to facilitate movement, he would not wear his equipment. Only when he was about to battle would he put on the equipment.
Lu Yu looked at the equipment in front of Yun Zirou and could not help but sigh. As expected of a member of a prominent family.
Every piece of equipment was incomparably superb. At a glance, one could tell that it was the clothing of an aristocrat.
Then, he looked at his own equipment. Although the equipment’s stats were not bad, it looked very rough and did not look fashionable.
At this moment, Yun Zirou looked at the equipment in front of Lu Yu and asked, “This set of equipment of yours can’t be green quality, right? If so, that’s newbie-level equipment.”
