Chapter 12 Hunting

It was an early morning in Bin City, which is very close to Laian City. The Bounty Hunters Guild welcomed a large group of bounty hunters as soon as they opened their doors.The task with a lot of people and money was sold out almost immediately, and the rest of the people gathered around the bulletin board to make a noise, and the scene was once chaotic.A group of bounty hunters stepped into the gate of the guild, and the noise was suddenly extinguished. Everyone looked at this group of well-equipped visitors and whispered together.

This is a team of hunters consisting of five people, including swordsmen, heavy armor soldiers, archers, magicians, and monks from the Order of God, and there is a goblin at their feet.Everyone's equipment is not ordinary, and this kind of combat power is rare in a small place like Bincheng.

Zhuo Jun pinched his palm to keep himself from laughing, and walked into the rest area of ​​the hall with a calm expression, very satisfied with the response when he appeared on stage.Once a person is rich, he can straighten his waist. Zhuo Jun looked at the envious eyes of the people around him, thinking that if these people knew that he was still in debt of more than 9000 million, their expressions would be more exciting.

They rushed to Bincheng overnight last night, ran through all the black market stalls in the city, almost swept away all the gold coins of the merchants, and finally sold all the antique weapons.Zhuo Jun sat on the chair, rubbing the ring excitedly, which contained a whole year's tax revenue for a small country.

With Erlang's legs crossed, Zhuo Jun sent Mike to say: "Stop standing here, go and see if there is any mission to the Os Empire. Quentin is too calm, there are not many thieves."

Linton and Misha leaned carelessly on the comfortable chairs. In the past, they even sat carefully when they were in tatters, but now it is different. With the equipment they are wearing now, who dares to underestimate them?Moore probably got used to Shenhui's restrained life, and kept standing against the wall with his eyes closed to rest his mind. In Zhuo Jun's eyes, this was just a faint pretense.

After a while, Mike trotted back: "Boss, don't talk about the missions to the Os Empire, there are no missions to other places, all of them are missions that are not lucrative!"

Zhuo Jun sighed secretly, it seems that no matter how good the equipment is, you have to squeeze the bulletin board together to get a good task... Anyway, now that you have money, you can no longer be as exhausted as before, Zhuo Jun leisurely Get up, intend to go directly to the Os Empire.

At this moment, a group of guards suddenly poured in at the door.Zhuo Jun hurriedly looked over, thinking that it was another five-star mission, but he was very disappointed in the result.The one who entered was not a senior member of the Bounty Hunters Guild, but a little old man who was nearly fifty years old. Judging from his clothes, he should be the captain of the local guard.

The captain took out a piece of paper from his pocket and read: "Attention all bounty hunters, the city lord has an order to buy unlimited crystal cores of four-star and above monsters. The price is double the market price. This is only one day. Anyone who has crystal cores You can sell it to us."

As soon as this remark came out, the pot was blown up. Such a good opportunity was once in a thousand years. Many bounty hunters with crystal cores surrounded him.The captain pushed the crowded crowd: "Don't worry, line up! We're here all day, as much as you want, don't crowd!"

Zhuo Jun squinted at Bao Locke: "You owe me four thousand gold coins now."

Bao Locke drooped his ears when he heard the words, and the mud-legged trio had grown accustomed to the shameless behavior of their boss. Linton propped his chin and said, "Double acquisition, it's a chance to make money."

The steward of the guild obviously knew the captain well, and after calling the servants to offer refreshments, he leaned over and asked, "Why is the city lord buying such a large amount of crystal cores all of a sudden?"

The captain sipped his tea leisurely: "Old man, this is not an order from the city lord, but an order from His Majesty the Emperor. Now the whole country is buying high-quality crystal cores."

Mike's ears are not sharp but sharp, so he quickly told Zhuo Jun this.Zhuo Jun muttered thoughtfully: "The whole country... If you want this thing, it's likely to go to war again."

To put it bluntly, the monster crystal core has only one purpose, which is a magic enhancer.It can be used to refine medicine to improve its efficacy, and it can be used to increase its power when used in magic or magic circles. If it is purchased in large quantities across the country, it can't be refining medicine, right?So the only possibility is to start a war.And who can the Quentin Empire fight against, only the Aussie Empire, Zhuo Jun wondered if he could take the opportunity to get some money...

Linton couldn't wait to try the power of the new weapon, and he had a rare fighting spirit: "Boss, let's kill monsters too, it's a rare opportunity to make money!"

Naturally, Zhuo Jun would not let go of this opportunity, nodded, and led a few people out of the hall.

When he walked out, he saw many bounty hunters rushing to the auction house, Zhuo Jun looked at their backs and laughed.It's really stupid, the troops have all bought from the bounty hunters, the auction house must have been sold out by them long ago, there is no fart now.

A group of people stepped on their horses and left the city. Generally, monsters are active in forests or mountains, and the more powerful monsters, the harder it is to see them.

Zhuo Jun patted Bao Locke on the head: "Oh, this time I have to pin my hopes on you again, can you surprise me once?"

Bao Locke was as optimistic as ever: "Don't worry, boss, I will definitely find a hundred four-star monsters for you!"

Zhuo Jun nodded hopelessly and quickened his whip.

Zhuo Jun and the others saw countless companions along the way, presumably all the bounty hunters in the city should have been dispatched.But compared to them looking for it dully, Zhuo Jun has a live radar...although it is extremely unreliable.Although there were a large number of people, the forest outside the city was huge, and soon the bounty hunters dispersed, and it was difficult to see other teams.

So many people rushed into the forest at once, and even the usual one-star and two-star monsters hid when they heard the sound.Baolock watched the surroundings with a pair of eyes, catching the breath of high-level monsters.

Linton began to complain: "Baullock, it's not that I doubt you. Tell me, how do you perceive treasures? Why do you sometimes listen, sometimes see, and sometimes smell?" About this A little Zhuo Jun was also very curious, and Bao Locke seemed to be fooling them every time.

Bao Locke borrowed Zhuo Jun's words: "If you can find the treasure, you are a good goblin!"

There are many four-star monsters that are rare, and they are common and not seen every day. A group of people followed Baoluk deeper and deeper. The low-level monsters encountered wave after wave, but the higher-level monsters were not seen. monster.Zhuo Jun couldn't help cursing: "It's really unlucky, I don't want to take one step at a time when I meet a monster, and I can't even see the hair when I come to hunt!"

Moore's eyes tightened suddenly, and he said almost at the same time as Baolock: "Here we come!"

As soon as the words were finished, with a roar, a giant bear suddenly rushed out of the dark woods, staring at the humans who disturbed it with scarlet eyes, opened its mouth to reveal sharp fangs, and let out a roar.

"Four-star deep forest bear! Bao Locke can do it, and his proficiency has come up!" Zhuo Jun said excitedly. Although he was not faster than Moore's perception, he had improved after all.

Moore raised his eyebrows, proficiency?It's very appropriate, Zhuo Jun is quite good at spelling words.

In the past, when there was no Moore and no equipment, it was inevitable to entangle for a while when encountering four-star monsters, but now... Mike struggled to draw the longbow, and three arrow clusters whizzed out.

The power of the new weapon was really extraordinary, Zhuo Jun hardly saw the trajectory of the arrow, and the deep forest bear was already hit by the arrow, howling.The most common iron arrow pierced deeply into the thick skin of the deep forest bear, which was comparable to hard armor, and blood gushed out all at once.

Linton raised his wand aloft, and a ball of fire that was more than twice as big as usual fell from the sky. The whole body of the deep forest bear burst into flames, screamed on the ground, and stopped moving after a while.

Zhuo Jun nodded, very satisfied with his younger brother's strength, this is a bounty hunter, his previous virtue was simply a bastard.

After the flames burned out, leaving a charred black bear carcass, Mike got off his horse and took out the dagger from his boots.Skillfully dissecting the corpse of the deep forest bear, Mike took out the still hot crystal nucleus.Before Zhuo Jun had time to praise him, he saw Mike suddenly open his mouth and gnaw a piece of meat from the bear carcass.After chewing for a long time, Mike spit it out with a wrinkled face: "It's all burnt!"

Zhuo Jun held his forehead, speechless.If the elves know that there is such a carnivorous lover who shames people everywhere under their banner every day, they will come to destroy their hunter group...

Collect the crystal nucleus, and the team moves on.

Maybe Baoluk really improved his proficiency, of course, it could also be that the blind cat ran into a dead mouse and led Zhuo Jun and the others to catch a few four-star monsters.Zhuo Jun and Misha also came on stage one after another, full of praise for their new equipment.The golden sword can even cut off the monster's bones easily. Misha is wearing heavy armor and can even stand up to let the monster fight with her shield. The group's harvest is getting more and more abundant.

When moving forward, Zhuo Jun looked at his sword and couldn't help but think of the second master.Back then, Second Master's ridiculously thin sword split the skull of a six-star monster. Compared with that sword, the golden sword was slightly inferior.

Thinking of the handsome face of the second master, Zhuo Jun couldn't help feeling guilty, and sneaked a glance at Moore beside him.Moore looked at Zhuo Jun whose expression suddenly became weird for no reason, and didn't know what to do.Seeing Moore's calm expression, Zhuo Jun felt a little unhappy for some reason. This man clearly agreed to think about it, but it didn't look like he was thinking about it at all!

Zhuo Jun got angry for a moment, speeded up and passed by Moore, quickly reached out and touched Moore's waist, and then ran away as quickly as if he was running for his life.

Moore was even more confused, who could tell him what Zhuo Jun was thinking?

Afterwards, Zhuo Jun's good luck seemed to be exhausted, and Bao Locke had nothing to gain, and there were no monsters without eyes that came to his door by himself.Zhuo Jun looked at the big sun that had already run directly above his head, wiped off his sweat and said, "Get off the horse and take a rest, Misha brings out the dry rations I bought before leaving the city."

Mike was the first to dismount, and sat on the ground obediently waiting for the food.As if he forgot what he did just now, Zhuo Jun cheekily squeezed to Moore's side.

The living standard of the hunter group has also improved, and they dare to eat meat.Mike had a patty in each hand, and his mouth was full of oil.Linton laughed at him while eating at a speed not weaker than his.Not to mention the female man Misha, who eats more boldly than anyone else, three mouthfuls and one big cake.Or Moore's eating is the most elegant.

Zhuo Jun looked at Moore while eating, Moore turned his head to look at him, Zhuo Jun gave him a harmless smile.Moore rolled his eyes, turned around and ignored him, Zhuojun was very happy, Moore even rolled his eyes so charmingly, I don’t know what it’s like to eat...

Zhuo Jun also generously rewarded Bao Locke for his meritorious service today.No one would think that this was done by human beings after seeing it. Only meat pies are given for meritorious service?But for Zhuo Jun, this is indeed a great reward, Bao Locke took a small bite, his face full of satisfaction.

After eating, Zhuo Jun clapped his hands and stretched comfortably.The sun shines on his body through the mottled leaves, making it very warm and pleasant.This is probably what attracts Zhuo Jun the most in this world. In the real world, he has no place and no desire to bask in the sun leisurely.The cool breeze blows like this again, and everyone is a little drowsy.

Zhuo Jun leaned on the stone, squinted his eyes and asked Moore: "Moore, did you have such a leisurely time in God before?"

Moore was slightly taken aback, it seemed that he really didn't have any.Strictly speaking, there are all kinds of people in the congregation, and there are many people who are even stranger than Zhuo Jun, such as his old mentor, Bishop Matthew... Moore is a priest in name, but he actually performed the duties of a bishop. No free time all day long.Although I don't hate this, but who doesn't like to steal half a day's leisure?

Moore chuckled slightly: "Ever since I took office, I have basically never left the Shenhui. The days now are more like when I was a child. At that time, I traveled and took risks all over the world with my teacher. Now it seems that I have changed I got a position and became your teacher."

Zhuo Jun muttered: "I didn't regard you as a teacher...By the way, Moore, you haven't told me what your position is in the God Council?"

"The priest under the bishop's seat." Moore didn't intend to hide it from Zhuo Jun.

Zhuo Jun asked curiously: "What kind of official is the priest? Is he big?"

Moore said modestly: "Not big." Just kidding, except for the archbishop and a dozen bishops, the entire Eternal Church is as big as the priests.You must know that there are tens of thousands of people in the entire Eternal God, and priests can be regarded as high-level.

Zhuo Jun continued to ask: "Then how much is your monthly salary? It's salary."

Moore glanced at Zhuo Jun: "The position of the Eternal God's Association is voluntary, and there is no money."

"No money?" Zhuo Jun glared. The archbishop of the Eternal God's Society is stingy, "Won't I have to support you in the future? It doesn't matter, you can find another way. As far as I said last time, you gods The stick should be clear, right?"

Moore snorted and ignored Zhuo Jun, since he shouldn't have picked on him in the first place.

At this time, Baoluk, who had gone to the stream to drink water, came back in a hurry, and shouted from a long distance: "Boss, boss! I can feel the breath of many five-star monsters!"

Zhuo Jun rolled over all of a sudden, is there such a good thing?Moore saw that these people who seemed to be falling asleep in a second suddenly jumped on their horses one by one, throwing him off a long way.

Under Bao Locke's leadership, the crowd came to a hillside.Looking down from the top, there are nearly dozens of bright flowers growing densely on the grass on the hillside, which is very beautiful and spectacular at first glance.But if you take a closer look, you can see the clues. The huge petal interlayer is full of thick fangs, and some flowers have a big tongue full of saliva protruding from the center of the flower, which is a full foot long.

"This is..." Zhuo Jun looked at this strange scene in surprise, "The five-star monster cannibal flower!"

Dealing with a five-star monster, Zhuo Jun, is easy, but dealing with a group of... Zhuo Jun patted Moore on the shoulder: "The organization entrusts you with this simple task!"

Slapping Zhuo Jun's paw away with an unfriendly expression, Moore snorted and drove his horse down the hillside.

The group of piranhas was frightened, and they uttered ear-piercing screams. Countless barbed vines protruded from the ground, and smashed towards Moore in a black mass.

After a flash of light, the overwhelming vines were all reduced to fly ash, and the screams of the piranhas became louder, but with a bitter taste.Zhuo Jun and the others stayed on the hillside as if they were watching a play. Zhuo Jun couldn't see his eyes when he smiled. Moore is really a character like a cheater. It is not easy to deal with these monsters.

The piranha, which did not provoke anyone and did not provoke anyone, was quickly wiped out by Moore alone. The cracked vines and petals were everywhere, and the bright red liquid, whether it was flower juice or blood, flowed all over the ground. .

Zhuo Jun yelled that he was rich, and rushed down with his younger brothers to pick up crystal nuclei.Just halfway through the run, I saw more than a dozen heavily armed men rushing out of the woods on the other side of the hill, obviously they were also bounty hunters.Zhuo Jun looked at them coldly, it was not a happy thing to meet colleagues at this time.

Sure enough, the one-eyed man in the lead first glanced greedily at the piranhas all over the ground, and then looked at Moore who was standing among them: "We discovered these monsters first, and we didn't expect you to be the first. But you also I have worked out the strength, share it with you half."

One-eyed's calculations were very loud, he expected that this group of people must have no energy after killing so many piranhas, and they had an advantage in numbers, so they would definitely not dare to resist.

Moore secretly bowed a tear to them, and he had never seen anyone rushing to give money.

Zhuo Jun was about to laugh angrily: "Grandma, I have always been the only one who robs others! Since you say so, don't blame me...you hand over everything to me!"

Cyclops froze for a moment, maybe he had never seen this kind of scene, the opponent not only resisted, but also robbed them?

Zhuo Jun drew out his sword: "Moore, take a rest first, this group of people is not worthy for you to do it. Guys, a fat sheep is coming to your door, rush for me!"

One-eyed's remaining eye showed disdain, four people beat them more than a dozen, how could they not take them seriously?The big knife in his hand was also raised high: "Brothers, if they still dare to resist, don't leave them a dime, kill them!"

3 minutes later……

One-eyed fell to the ground weakly, muttering in his mouth: "Monsters... are all monsters..."

Zhuo Jun looked happily at the one-eyed group who couldn't get up anymore. It seemed that their own strength had also improved a lot, and they could go out to rob alone in the future.Mike and Linton searched the poor people's money bags one by one, including gold coins, crystal nuclei, weapons, even dry food and horses.

After picking up all the piranha's crystal nuclei, Zhuo Jun looked at the spoils he had harvested, and waved his hand: "Let's go, go back to the city to claim the reward!"
