"So much trouble... What did the group do?" Selma's other companion, Tolle, asked in surprise.
They have stayed in Primal City for so many years, and it is rare for the Hand of Order to make such a big move in order to hunt down the target.
Although the other party didn't say too much detail, the description of the storm in the city still allowed Selma and others to intuitively get a glimpse of the rough situation.
Shang Jianyao, who fiddled with the fire, replied instead of Jiang Baimian:
"Planning a big conspiracy against the 'First City'."
"What?" Sandro and Denise, who were in charge of vigilance, blurted out.
Simply speaking, they may just take it as a joke, but with the response of the "Hand of Order", this problem becomes quite serious.
Shang Jianyao kindly explained:
"This is the content of the mission description. It belongs to the unilateral accusation of the 'Hand of Order', which may not be true."
Why does this sound weird... Selma thought for a few seconds and said:
"The 'Hand of Order' has issued a mission to the guild? How much is the reward?"
He felt that the seriousness and urgency of a matter should not be based on subjective descriptions. In comparison, the amount of the reward might be more telling.
"If you catch the target gang alone, you can get 10,000 ore." Jiang Baimian said with a smile, "Of course, this is the price before we left the city. It is not clear if there is any change now."
"Ten thousand ore per target?" Selma, Tolle and the others felt a bit of a toothache in an instant.
This level of bounty makes them discouraged, not thinking that they have any hope of completing it, and the corresponding risk must be too great to bear.
We can only see if there is a chance to get some clues to exchange for money... A thought flashed through their minds at the same time.
"I think it's too low." Shang Jianyao sincerely responded to the rhetorical question of the relic hunters on the opposite side.
"Not too low, not too low." Selma shook her head again and again, "You can't get a few missions like this in a year."
Jiang Baimian did not continue this topic, and asked calmly:
"This wasteland has been explored for decades, and there shouldn't be any valuable gains, right?"
The members of the "Old Tune Group" are all gray people. It is normal that they are not familiar with this wasteland on the north bank of the Red River, so there is no need to hide it.
Hearing this sentence, Selma immediately made a judgment:
This is a team of relic hunters who are new to the surrounding area to venture out.
The appearance and kindness of the other party, the simplicity and commonality of the question, let him not hide it, he smiled and said:
"It's not what you think.
"Many places here are very seriously polluted, and it has only been restored to a minimum in recent years. You can explore, er, there are some areas, and it is not recommended to enter now, unless you can wear chemical protective clothing, radiation protection clothing and other things.
"In addition to exploring ruins, hunting aberrant creatures is also a way. They have high research value. Officials of the 'First City' are buying them, and some private researchers will even offer prices that are enough to make you excited, or directly put up bounties. ."
At least two-thirds of those private researchers are white gloves, black gloves, and intelligence officers from major forces, who collect biological materials for the organization... Jiang Baimian muttered in his heart and deliberately asked:
"Does the North Anherford area you came to have city ruins that you can only enter in recent years?"
"Of course." Thelma nodded. "It's no secret."
During the exchange between the two parties, the pot of roast beef with potatoes was already hot, and when Shang Jianyao and the others took out oatmeal bread, they ate it.
Selma, Sandro and others looked envious, but they could only swallow their saliva, take out the soon-to-be-soggy biscuits, dip them in the soup, and fill their stomachs.
Even so, the rich aroma and the taste that reverberated in their mouths still moved them quite a bit.
After taking turns eating dinner, Thelma said goodbye.
Although this team of Ashlanders looked friendly and not malicious, they felt they should keep enough distance.
That way, the person in charge of the night will not be under too much pressure.
After showing her muscles, Selma felt that if there was no serious conflict of interest, the other party would not risk attacking herself and others.
While Sandro, Denise, and Toler were on high alert, Selma drove slowly to another higher place.
The heavy rain quickly covered their tracks.
Jiang Baimian retracted his gaze, covered his mouth and yawned:
"Let's take the time to rest, and then we have to hurry."
After arriving at the north bank of the Red River, the "Old Tune Team", Han Wanghuo and Zeng Duo chose to go against the norm at night in order to avoid the drone search of the "First City".
Although compared with other teams, they have Genava, an intelligent person who does not have too much influence on the "field of vision" due to the dark environment, so there is no need to worry about some hidden dangers, but they still dare not drive too fast, and focus on stability.
In the daytime, taking advantage of the gloomy sky and poor visibility today, they continued on their way, and finally got out of the search range of the "First City" drone before the torrential rain. "First City" has several outposts and observation points in the North Shore Wasteland. , and there are also drones and other equipment.
As soon as Jiang Baimian finished speaking, Genova had already walked down from the second floor of the main building.
With red light in his eyes, he asked:
"Why did you let me stay on it for a while longer?"
Jiang Baimian's eyes turned slightly, and he replied with a smile:
"Can't scare the guests..."
…
The torrential rain subsided in the middle of the night, and Selma and the others waited until dawn before embarking on their return journey again.
They went all the way smoothly, reached the bank of the Red River, and returned to Primordial City through the bridge.
Since they had several tasks on their backs, they went straight to the Hunter Guild without taking a rest.
While waiting for the handover of her companions, Denise habitually looked at the big screen, looking for tasks that she could take on later.
"Thelma, look, the 'Hand of Order' mission." Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she tapped the team leader on the shoulder.
Selma followed the reputation, and sure enough, she found the content described by the previous gray people team.
"Planning a big conspiracy against the 'First City'... The reward amount, per person, 20,000 ore per person? It has risen so fast, what have they done?"
In just a few days, the reward amount has doubled, which inevitably makes people suspect that the seriousness of the matter is still increasing!
For Selma and others, the stability of the original city is the foundation of everything.
They don't want to be in a state of physical and mental exhaustion after going through danger in the North Shore Wasteland, and they can't relax a little when they return to Primal City.
Sandro and others also looked at this mission, and soon, the name and photo of the target came into their eyes.
"Xue Yixue... Zhang Qubing..." Selma's eyes suddenly froze.
His companions were no exception, their expressions were dull.
They have seen this group of people!
It was the team of Ashlanders who described the mission to them!
After recovering, Selma and the others did not care about being shocked, they were full of fear and happiness.
They actually communicated face-to-face with such a dangerous team, each of whom was worth 20,000 ore, for nearly half an hour, and even rubbed each other's canned soup!
If we had said one or two wrong words at the time, we might not have been able to see the sun today... Selma couldn't help raising her hand and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
Who would have thought that the group of relic hunters that randomly encountered in the wild was such a dangerous existence!
And the other party can talk about the task of being rewarded so easily.
After a while, Denise broke the silence and asked her teammates:
"Thelma, do you want to hand in the information? I see a lot of rewards."
The highest gear is 300 Ole, and the lowest can be 50.
Selma considered for a few seconds and said:
"Let's report it, the possibility of encountering them again is very low, there is no need to worry too much.
"As a relic hunter, how can you miss such an opportunity?"
…
Red Wolf District, 19 Rosta Street, "Hand of Order" headquarters.
"The Xue Yueyue team met a team of relic hunters, and they focused on inquiring about the situation in the North Anhford area..." Theodore entered the conference room, picked up the materials on the table, and read it in a low voice.
They have learned from some informants that the target escaped from Prime City through a certain channel and ran to the North Shore Wasteland.
This is also the main reason for them to increase the amount of the reward. The "Hand of Order" is responsible for the security of the city and the suburban manor. It rarely sends people directly into the wasteland to capture the target. The next step is to rely on the military and relic hunters.
"I thought they would return directly to their forces." Wall was a little puzzled by the movements of Xue Yue's team.
After getting important information, why are you still staying in the North Shore Wasteland
At this time, his boss, the Red Giant Wolf District Order Officer Trevis knocked on the table:
"Anyway, let this information out and let the relic hunters and the military pay more attention to that area."
…
In an old world town that has been abandoned for many years, all kinds of bones and excrement are scattered on the ground.
Jiang Baimian and others parked the car in a hidden place, on the top of a certain house, and stared at the black wasteland outside the town with binoculars.
"Many ruin hunters have gone there." Han Wanghuo said his observations.
Jiang Baimian chuckled lightly:
"It seems that the information we took the initiative to pass back is still effective.
"Next, let these relic hunters help us explore the reality of the regular army of the 'First City' in the North Anheford area. You can't be reckless in saving people, and even more so in saving the town."
Zeng Duo, who was next to him, was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the "invitation" after the encounter with the relic hunter had hidden such a purpose.
Slap clap, Shang Jianyao applauded.
