Chapter 137 Hunting Towns

Chapter 137 Hunting Towns

When Su Lun returned to the transport team camp, it was not yet time to get up and break camp.

The guards on duty at night were smoking cigarettes boredly around the camp, and there were flickering lights in the darkness.

He quietly groped back into the tent from the top of the rock wall, but no one noticed.

After working for most of the night, now that he was free, Su Lun also began to count the harvest of the night.

After all, the "Iron Knights" is a peripheral member of the Umbrella Organization, and the equipment is not bad, and it can be sold at a good price when packaged.

What Su Lun cared most about was the fortune teller's storage ring.

In addition to some strange divination materials, there is also the crystal necklace he used in divination before.

After appraising it, it was expected to be an ancient cursed object.

【Serea's Crystal Pendant】

Description: A crystal necklace engraved with the words 'To my dear Selea';

Curse feature: When you choose a difficult choice, it can help you make a decision; depending on the level of the divination thing, pay an equivalent lifespan as an exchange price;

Detailed Explanation: Although the refining technique is not very clever, it is an alchemy necklace full of love; wearing it, there is a high probability that you will be protected from divination detection of no more than second-level spells; it can be used as a "pendulum fortune teller" Employment materials;

Su Lun felt that the name "Seriya" looked familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.

But since it's also a very common female name, I didn't give it much thought.

In terms of effect alone, this is a very practical necklace.

Su Lun was a little worried about his whereabouts being discovered by a fortune teller, and the "detection-proof" attribute of this pendant just solved this problem.

The curse feature is also acceptable, and the use of divination will shorten the life.

Su Lun is not a fortuneteller by profession. Although he has gained a little fortunetelling skills, he thinks that he will not be like the guy before who forcibly fortunetold something, causing him to vomit blood and shorten his life.

When worn on the body, it is good to have passive attributes.

The item was good, Su Lun wrapped the pendant around his wrist to cover it up, and muttered again: Sure enough, the precise robbery profession is the "shortcut" to obtain the exclusive items of this profession.

After counting the trophies, Su Lun lay on the sleeping bag, carefully thinking about what happened that night.

Now that the origin of the original owner has been clarified, Su Lun also felt a big stone in his heart.

He also wanted to understand what was going on with the bounty on the black market. It must be the original owner's hostile forces "outside the tower".

Even if they are exiled in this underground world, they must be exterminated.

But that's good, at least the enemy is not a big family in the inner city.

What Su Lun had to face was just a wanted warrant that was becoming more and more useless.

He hadn't been recognized before, but now that he was injected with the "X serum", who could connect his blue-skinned, muscular body with the handsome aristocratic youth of the original owner?

Not long after, the assembly order sounded in the camp.

The transportation team started a new day of escorting.

I heard that there would be a monster attack in the D24 area before, which made everyone in the team tremble with fear. But after walking for a few days, their transport team went surprisingly smoothly.

D24 and D25 went all the way, except for a few small-scale attacks of distortion monsters, they did not encounter any dangerous battles.

There were many traces of fighting on the road, but the corpses had all been cleaned up. It looks like a big team that came here before and cleaned it up all the way.

Without fighting, the wild hunters in the team are also happy to be idle.

A few days later, they finally arrived at the ruins of Dawn City.

Once again came to Liming City, the "birthplace" that had just crossed over, and Su Lun was also quite moved.

Once upon a time, it was like a mass grave, lifeless.

But now, with "Storm Manor" as the center, there are various buildings under construction all over the mountains and plains.

From a long distance, you can see that the camp is brightly lit, and the towering steam boilers are emitting white smoke. These boilers can provide a continuous supply of energy for the large workshops in the camp, speeding up construction.

In the manor, there are also two sets of large-scale mechanical equipment composed of various tanks and pipes like a chemical plant, which are "air filtration device" and "drinking water treatment device". This is also the most important device to ensure that the wild hunters can survive for a long time in the underground where the dark spiritual power is violent.

It's more like a war town than a camp.

The wild hunters used stones and steel brackets to build super-large wild hunting camps that could accommodate 100,000 people, and caravans continued to bring in various building materials from Old Lington. After that, it will become a lively small city.

However, when Su Lun saw the Stormwind Manor, his eyes became distant.

Revisiting the old place, he thought of Pestoia.

The ghost-species girl who gave him the advanced materials of "Puppet Master".

"Stormwind Manor has been invaded, that is to say, that cursed space has been broken."

Su Lun frowned slightly as he looked at his brows.

A little girl with a good appetite, although she is not human.

Oh, almost forgot.

There seems to be a brooch she gave, buried somewhere.

Coming to the ruins under the D33 area, the concentration of dark spiritual power is already several times that of the old Lingdun city.

For normal humans, this is a dangerous area that can easily cause body deformation after staying for a long time.

But for Su Lun, it had no effect at all.

On the contrary, he felt that in this environment, the pores all over his body were comfortable.

After the increase of "X Serum", the body is very comfortable with this high concentration of dark spiritual power, and he doesn't even need to meditate.

Moreover, there is no sign of distortion due to absorbing this dark attribute energy too quickly.

This concentration is only on the hillside, and in the ruined city in the distance, there is a "specially dense area" filled with black mist.

It can be expected that in this environment, Su Lun's dark spiritual power will soar rapidly. Perhaps in the next month or two, his dark spiritual power may reach the threshold of a second-tier professional.

If he finds suitable advanced materials at that time, maybe he can successfully break through to the second level.

"Okay, this is the end of our employment contract. Thank you for your dedication to the escort. According to the contract, there is no loss of goods, and an additional 10% of the escort fee will be paid."

"Oh, praise to the generous Mr. Abagon!"

"Our Chamber of Commerce will return to the city in ten days. If you are interested in continuing to receive escort missions back to the city, you can sign up at the office in the camp."

"."

When they arrived at their destination, the task of these wild hunters like Su Lun was completed.

A Bagong distributed the rest of the employment payment to everyone, and then went to deliver the goods.

Because there were no fierce battles and no additional combat subsidies, Su Lun only received the basic commission, but there were also nearly 100,000 lisos.

High risk, but also in exchange for high reward.

Everyone took the money and dispersed.

Su Lun looked at the camp not far away, but did not rush over.

The abomination warrior is his life-saving weapon, so he naturally has to carry it with him.

However, its three-meter-high body is too burly. Even if there is a shroud to hide, it is easy to be spotted in a crowded place.

And because the living corpse has vital signs, it cannot be put into the storage ring, which is the most troublesome.

Su Lun felt that his second-level advanced direction would definitely give priority to curse materials that could awaken the "space ability".

Otherwise, there will be more puppets to be controlled in the future, and it is estimated that it will be like walking a duck, with a large group of puppets behind.

In the end, after tossing around for a while, Su Lun bought a steam dog from a caravan returning to the city, disguised the living corpse as cargo and carried it on the back of the mechanical dog, which made it less conspicuous.

Su Lun led the robot dog towards the hunting camp.

At this moment, there was already a long queue at the gate of the camp to enter the city.

Before coming, Su Lun thought that the camp at the Ruins of Dawn should be an idle camp full of tents. I never thought that in such a short period of time, the scale has reached the high wall surrounding the town.

There are heavy machine guns and artillery on the city wall, and some heavily armed guys are setting up cards at the door.

I thought it was an identity check, but it turned out that it was just a city fee.

Su Lun calmly looked at the layout of the guards at the gate of the lower city, and instinctively estimated whether he could retreat unscathed in the event of a conflict.

Then, he quietly lined up at the back of the line.

He listened attentively to the conversations of those people in front, and also figured out the general situation in the city.

The high entry fee also made the new hunters curse.

"Damn it, if you stay in this camp for one night, you actually have to charge three thousand lisuo to enter the city?! I only earn one hundred thousand yuan for one escort, and I have to spend it all for a month?"

"One month? You think it's so beautiful! I heard from the buddy who went in before that everything in this camp is expensive. There are three to five hundred ordinary girls in the old Lington city, and here it costs five thousand. Drinking water is old. Ten times that of Lington! There are also food, medicine, and ammunition supplies, all of which are also several times."

"So expensive? Then we risked our lives to hunt wilderness, didn't we earn it all for this unscrupulous businessman?"

"Actually, it's not too expensive. Everyone is here to hunt wilderness, who is here for a long time? At most, you can take a rest for supplies, and you can't stay in the city for a few days. Besides, those big chaebols spent huge sums of money to build the city. With so much equipment, it is natural to recover the cost.”

"I'm a fool, I haven't started earning money yet, so I'm going to spend this wrong money"

"If you don't want to pay, you can camp outside the city. It's just that the aberrations near the ruins are very frequent, and there are also predators and thieves. I'm afraid that if you fall asleep, you will die for no reason."

"Actually, there are ways to avoid paying the city fee."

"How to say?"

"Join the wilderness hunting team of the five major financial groups. Just obey their orders and participate in some collective wilderness hunting missions."

"The hunting team of the five consortiums?"

"yes."

"Joining will provide employment salary. It's just that the treasures found in wild hunting are sold to them first, and there are no other restrictions. I asked, and the price is still fair."

"."

After hearing a few words, Su Lun roughly understood the situation of the camp.

Several big chaebols in the inner city mobilized a lot of resources to build a camp, and then set up such a fee for entering and leaving the city.

If you don't want to pay, you have to join their hunting team, listen to the arrangement, and go to perform some fixed-point exploration tasks.

Su Lun did not intend to join the hunting group of these chaebols.

After all, he didn't risk his life hunting wasteland to make money.

He knew very well that those chaebols probably wanted to recruit "cannon fodder" for mine detection.

After all, no one will know in advance what level of danger the "cursed space" is, and it will take human life to find out.

In case of encountering a "T-level" with no survivors, it would be a pity to lose high-level professionals in it. Go to some cannon fodder to explore the way first, and you can roughly figure out the degree of danger.

Not long after, it was Su Lun's turn to line up.

He paid the money, took a colored sign and hung it in a conspicuous place, and entered the city smoothly.

Su Lun didn't plan to set up a tent outside the city, and the hunters who couldn't even afford to enter the city probably didn't have anything good in their hands. He wanted to go to the Hunting House in the city to have a look first, it would be better if he could buy the materials he needed. If he couldn't buy it, he would go to the Wild Hunter Union to inquire about some news. Instead of blindly plunging into the ruins that are full of dangers.

There are no ordinary residents in the hunting camp, and there are no redundant buildings.

Weapon shop, gun shop, machinery shop, medicine shop

After entering the city, there are dense supply shops on both sides of the street.

The names of major commercial firms in the inner city are also hung on the signboards.

After walking a few steps, you can see the familiar feasting and feasting.

The speculators immediately opened taverns and custom venues to the camp.

Probably because it is too troublesome to explain, there are signs with price tags hanging at the door.

"Girl from £3500"

"Rye wine from £400/bottle"

Despite the fact that the price is ten times that of Old Lyndon, business seems to be doing well.

As Su Lun passed by these few steps, he could see the wild hunters walking in with their shoulders crossed, laughing and laughing.

It is not easy to send such a group of delicate and weak customs girls underground, and there is a reason why it is more expensive.

The precarious days put a lot of mental pressure on the wild hunters, and they needed to vent. The wine and meat business, on the contrary, has more market here. What's more, the wild hunters who can come out of the ruins alive have money in their pockets.

Su Lun walked all the way.

He looked at the plan of the camp at the gate of the city before, and knew that there was a street on the east side, which was a market specially planned to sell things for wild hunters.

He led the mechanical dog and walked two streets, when he heard a market-like noise coming from that direction.

"The silver inauguration materials [Human-faced Owl's Eyes] that just came out of the ruins yesterday."

"Come, come, the ancient alchemy scrolls just unearthed, the number is limited"

"Ancient weapons, two-handed swords that cut iron like clay, alchemy crossbows, dwarven shields"

"Freshly produced curse materials, both black iron and silver, are available at a beautiful price."

"."

Su Lun became interested when he heard the sound next to his ear.

The names of many rare materials appeared in the mouths of those traders.

In Old Lington City, it is impossible to see silver materials being sold on street stalls anywhere.

Even in the black market in Shadow Alley, silver materials are rare and sought-after items.

But here, they are sold as ordinary commodities by wild hunters.

This is the benefit of first-hand source of goods.

Because there are no shops, antiquities worth hundreds of thousands of millions are randomly torn off a piece of rag and put on the ground for sale.

There are also many people coming and going on the street.

There are well-dressed speculators, and more wild hunters dressed as adventurers.

Most of the cursed objects left over from ancient times are rare, even if they are made of black iron, they are much better than those refined in this era.

Here, wild hunters who want to become advanced professionals can find real high-quality materials.

As soon as Su Lun walked into the Fangshi neighborhood, the first booth caught his attention.
