Apocalypse: Starting with an infinitely evolving luxury RV

Chapter 862 Reaching Cooperation

Just as Su Chen was about to say something, he felt a tightness in his throat and a vague feeling of being unable to breathe.

He knew this was a sign that the Tidal Lung Reagent was about to expire.

It took more than two hours from entering the secret realm to defeating the merfolk soldiers and discovering the radiant light.

After a long journey that took another three hours, it's time for the Tide Lung Remedy to take effect!

Su Chen, without bothering to speak to Liu Guang, turned to Luo Xiaotian and the others and said...

"Inject the reagent!"

Several people also experienced difficulty breathing.

Without hesitation, everyone immediately took out the reagents and gave themselves one.

After the tidal lung treatment was re-injected, the previous symptoms of tightness in the throat and difficulty breathing disappeared instantly.

Su Chen took a few breaths and looked at the crowd.

"This mermaid princess just told me..."

He explained the general situation to everyone.

"To be honest, I don't have any good solutions right now."

"So we can all discuss it together and see what the right thing to do is."

Su Chen is not a dictator who insists on doing everything his way.

When necessary, we should still gather everyone together to discuss the matter.

Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged bewildered glances.

The atmosphere became somewhat silent for a moment.

Finally, Luo Xiaotian broke the silence.

"Boss Su, if even you have no solution, how can we possibly have any ideas?"

"Let's just listen to you, you've saved us so many times already."

Wang Yan smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Yes, as long as you take the lead, Brother Su, I'll definitely follow!"

"That's right, I'll follow too!"

"Boss, you make the decision. Even if I drown in the end, I'll have no regrets if I can die with you!"

Everyone said in a hurry.

In short, they were saying that they would leave the decision to Su Chen and wouldn't have any complaints!

Seeing how much they trusted him, Su Chen smiled with relief.

"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony!"

He turned around and came to stand in front of Liuguang.

"Princess Liuguang".

"So, have you two reached an agreement?"

Liu Guang looked at Su Chen with some nervousness.

"We've reached an agreement, and we're willing to escort you to Zhenyuan Pass."

"That's great!"

Upon hearing this, Liuguang couldn't help but smile.

"Don't be so happy yet, I haven't offered any terms."

Su Chen said slowly,

"Once you get to Zhenyuan Pass, you should first ask your uncle Yan Yue to find a way for us to breathe underwater."

"no problem!"

"Furthermore, you'll need to pay a portion of the rewards you promised earlier. Don't tell me there's no treasure in Zhenyuan Pass, do you?"

"That works too. There are plenty of supplies at Zhenyuan Pass."

Liuguang nodded in agreement as before.

"Once I truly overthrow Mo Yuan, I will have the choice of all the treasures in the palace!"

Su Chen made an outrageous demand.

"This... I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult."

Ryuko explained,

"Those items belong to the royal family; it's impossible for you to have unlimited choices!"

"How about this, you can choose five items, and we can discuss the quantity of each item."

"What do you think?"

Su Chen thought for a moment, then nodded.

"OK, no problem!"

Atlantis had tens of thousands of soldiers.

Putting aside everything else, the Sharkmen and Naga who were chasing them just now already had a combat strength of D+.

According to Liuguang, there are even more powerful warriors above the Sharkmen and Naga!

The role that Su Chen and his group could play was actually quite limited.

Su Chen was already quite satisfied with obtaining five treasures and some extra Xuan Iron Wood.

"Deal!"

Liu Guang extended her fair hand to Su Chen.

Su Chen also reached out and shook hands with her.

With the agreement reached, the atmosphere between the two was no longer as tense as before.

"By the way, I still don't know your name."

Liuguang said with a smile.

"My name is Su Chen."

“Su...Chen, right? Okay, I’ve got it.”

Liu Guang imitated Su Chen's words and called out his name.

It was already late at night when the group entered the secret realm, after a long journey.

They were all quite exhausted at this point.

So Su Chen ordered them to rest on the spot for the time being.

He and the others took out food and began to fill their stomachs.

"What are you eating?"

Looking at the bread in Su Chen and the others' hands, Liu Guang looked on with curiosity.

"Bread, you could call it a staple food, would you like to try some?"

Su Chen handed it over.

Liuguang accepted the bread without hesitation, took a bite, and her eyes lit up immediately.

“It’s quite delicious!”

Although the bread tasted a bit bitter after being soaked in seawater.

But as a creature of the deep sea, Liuguang had long since adapted to the taste of seawater.

"You should try this too."

Liu Ling'er, who was standing nearby, handed over a bag of milk.

This is made with special packaging; you can only suck out the milk by biting the straw.

Although she couldn't understand Liu Ling'er's words, Liu Guang understood what she meant.

After taking the milk, Ryuko took a sip and was even more surprised after tasting its sweetness.

"Do you humans eat so well?"

"These are simple foods; real gourmet food can't be carried around with you."

Su Chen shrugged.

"If you have the chance to go ashore, I can let you try other delicacies."

"I also hope I'll have the opportunity!"

Liu Guang's beautiful eyes were full of longing!

She had been well-versed in ancient books since childhood and dreamed of leaving the royal city to see the scenery beyond Atlantis.

"By the way, what do you usually eat?"

Su Chen asked.

"They're usually dried fish or something like that."

Liu Guang took off her backpack and handed the food inside to Su Chen.

The diet of the Merfolk is very simple; they usually catch sea fish and eat them raw.

Or they might use special methods to make dried fish.

They also grow a rice-like crop, which they use as their staple food.

In addition, seaweed and other plants on the seabed are also their food source.

Although the variety of food was limited, the cooking methods were all the same, barely enough to fill one's stomach.

No wonder Liuguang thought humans ate well after taking a bite of bread and a sip of milk.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Su Chen and Liu Guang got down to business.

“You just said that it takes about three days to get from here to Zhenyuan Pass.”

"Yes."

"What dangers might we encounter on this journey?"

If there were no danger, Liu Guang would not have asked Su Chen for help.

She could have gone there herself.

"The rest of the place is fine, only one place is dangerous."

Liu Guang then introduced the situation to Su Chen.

Besides Atlantis and the Lava Clan, there are other unintelligent sea creatures on the ocean floor.

They are ferocious by nature and often attack marine species.

Atlantis, however, is a vast territory and difficult to defend.
