If the creature with exploit isn’t on the battlefield as the exploit ability resolves, you won’t get any bonus from the creature with exploit, even if you sacrifice a creature. Because the creature with exploit isn’t on the battlefield, its other triggered ability won’t trigger.

You can’t sacrifice more than one creature to any one exploit ability.
2015-02-25
A creature with exploit “exploits a creature” when the controller of the exploit ability sacrifices a creature as that ability resolves.
