359 An Invitation


“Really?”

Chu Yan blinked her lively eyes, very curious about the big event Fan Peng was talking about.

Lu Benwei pursed his lips and reminded Chu Yan.
“Don’t worry, the thing that this guy is talking about is definitely not a big matter.”

“Go to hell.”

Fan Peng rolled his eyes at Lu Benwei and then laughed.
“You guys might not know who I met when I got home last night.”

“If you have something to say, then say it!”

Lu Benwei felt that Fan Peng was hesitating and urged.

“It’s none other than Zhang Minghua!” Fan Peng chuckled.

“Ha!”

Lu Benwei and Chu Yan were both stunned for a moment.

“Did he come looking for you?” Lu Benwei asked.

“Yes, he’s been waiting downstairs for a long time,” Fan Peng said in a profound tone, “That guy came to apologize to me.
He said that he had a conflict with us yesterday afternoon and felt very sorry.”

“And then? It’s that simple?” Lu Benwei asked.

“Of course not.
He said that he was taught a lesson by his father when he went back and realized the mistake he made yesterday.”


Fan Peng paused for a second and then continued, “He said that to have a deeper understanding of the difficulties of being a soldier, he invited us to accompany him to explore the secret realm and face the monsters.
He also said that his great-grandfather lost a family heirloom in the sea swamp secret realm.

The sea swamp secret realm was in the Northwest of Qingling city.
It was a secret realm for all levels below level 50.
Anyone from level one to level fifty could enter.
The deeper it was, the more dangerous it was.

Lu Benwei snorted coldly.
“To find his family heirloom? I’m afraid he wants us to be his free bodyguards?”

Fan Peng was stunned for a moment, then said, “It’s not free.
He offered a reward.”

Lu Benwei stopped Fan Peng.
“I’m not interested in any reward.
Help me reject him.”

“Since you don’t want to go, I’ll reject him,” Fan Peng said with slight disappointment.

“It’s not impossible,” Chu Yan suddenly said.

Lu Benwei was stunned for a moment, while Fan Peng’s eyes lit up.

“What, you want to go?” Lu Benwei asked.

“Since I have nothing to do today, why don’t I take a walk around the secret realm?” Chu Yan shrugged her shoulders.
“Just in time to level up.
I’m about to break through to 46.”

Lu Benwei thought for a while.
He had been stuck at level 49 for a long time.
It was a huge threshold to cross from level 49 to level 50.

Even though he had previously fought against the allied army of monsters led by the Black Sky Monster in the dark moon secret realm, he had only managed to increase his progress by 10 percent.

Lu Benwei sighed and said, “Alright, let’s go to the sea swamp secret realm.”

“If that’s the case, I’ll tell Zhang Minghua that you’ve agreed,” Fan Peng said with a smile.


Lu Benwei and Chu Yan nodded, then brought Fan Peng home to wait for Zhang Minghua’s arrival.

It was about nine o’clock in the morning when a Lincoln Stretch limousine stopped at Phoenix Lake Community.
It was extremely eye-catching.

Zhang Minghua got out of the car and fixed the creases on his clothes.
Then, he put on a chrysanthemum-like smile and immediately went up to the rest.

“Lu Benwei and Brother Fan Peng, I’m really sorry for yesterday!”

Zhang Minghua smiled apologetically.

“Yesterday’s incident has hurt our relationship.
I’m here today to apologize to you.”

With that, Zhang Minghua waved his hand, and his personal driver took out three boxes from the trunk.

Two of them contained the latest game console that was released today, the PS5! The last one was an LV bag!

“It’s just a small token of my appreciation.
I hope you’ll give me the honor.”

Fan Peng’s eyes were wide open, and he really wanted to take it.
However, seeing that Lu Benwei did not want to accept it, he was too embarrassed to open his mouth.

“It’s good that you’re aware of your mistake,” Lu Benwei said coldly, “The ones you should really apologize to should be the soldiers on the front line.”

Zhang Minghua nodded.
“I understand.
Also, I have to apologize to the armies that are stationed in the secret realm to ensure our safety.”

Lu Benwei saw that Zhang Minghua’s apology was sincere and said, “Fan Peng, please accept it for us.”

When Fan Peng heard this, he was overjoyed.


However, in order not to embarrass Lu Benwei, he cleared his throat and said in a deep voice, “I’ll take it.
You’re not allowed to say such things to me in the future.”

“I understand, I understand!”

The three of them then got into the car.
The moment the car doors and windows were closed, the entire world fell silent.

The car started slowly, and the sound-proof and shock-absorbing effects of the limousine made Lu Benwei feel like he was in a steadily moving house.

“Come, let’s toast to a smooth operation.
Let’s drink first.”

Zhang Minghua took out a bottle of red wine from the car refrigerator and poured three glasses for the three of them.

Lu Benwei asked lightly, “Have you been to the secret realm before? If you’ve never been there, I don’t recommend you to drink.”

“No, why?” Zhang Minghua felt a little strange and asked.

Fan Peng smiled faintly.
“The secret realm reeks of dead bodies and blood everywhere.
How can you drink it? What if you vomit it all out?”

While speaking, Fan Peng swirled his wine glass.
The wine-red liquid made Zhang Minghua unconsciously think of blood, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

Seeing this, Fan Peng downed a glass of wine.
Zhang Minghua was so scared that he thought Fan Peng had drunk a glass of blood.

Lu Benwei and the other two laughed at Zhang Minghua’s funny face.

“Don’t laugh!” Zhang Minghua blushed.

Lu Benwei waved his hand and said, “Zhang Minghua, since you haven’t been to the secret realm, are you unemployed?”


“Unemployed? How is that possible?” Zhang Minghua was instantly displeased.

“Then you’re a lifestyle job holder?” Lu Benwei asked again.

Levels did not matter to the unemployed and lifestyle job holders.

Without a job, the unemployed could only do some low-level work.
There were all sorts of lifestyle classes, but leveling up would only make their job-oriented labor more convenient.

“I’m a pharmacist,” Zhang Minghua waved his hand and said.

Fan Peng’s eyes immediately widened.
“Pharmacist? That’s the most popular class among the strengthening-type classes.
Why don’t you go and train?”

Zhang Minghua scratched his head.
“My family has so much money that I can’t spend it all in my lifetime.
It doesn’t matter if I don’t go through the training.”

Fan Peng’s mouth twitched when he heard this.

“Even if your family is rich, leveling up will still help you a lot.” Lu Benwei smiled faintly.

“For example?”

“For example, you can improve your physique and drink more.”

“Really?” Zhang Minghua’s eyes lit up.

At this moment, the driver in front said respectfully, “Young Master, we’ve arrived at the sea swamp secret realm.”
