Max's Tavern.
Su Ziyu looked up at the half-lit sign and the other half unlit, got up and walked into the tavern.
There are two taverns in the Elk Gathering Area, one in the Chinese area and the other in the white area. The owner of the tavern in the Chinese area died not long ago. I heard that the cause of death was infection due to radiation distortion. When he went out to get goods, he encountered a A terrifying monster. Only two of my companions came back alive. One died right after he came back, and the other relied on medicine and died two days ago.
Some gang members in the Chinese district were fighting over the tavern, and a small-scale gunfight broke out the day before yesterday. Old Bob told Su Ziyu that it was best not to go there.
Clang.
When Su Ziyu pushed the door open, he discovered that there was something wrong with the door of this tavern. When he came in, he saw that it was actually modified from the door of a truck. The welding method was quite simple and crude.
"welcome."
"Would you like some drinks?" A white woman dressed as a bunny girl came over.
She looks to be in her twenties, wearing heavy makeup, and the smell of cheap perfume is off-putting. She must have been wearing a bunny girl outfit for a long time, and the fabric is slightly faded, but this is also the style of the wasteland era.
There were many customers in the entire pub, and old-world music was playing on the bar, which had a bit of a heavy metal feel.
Su Ziyu saw the big shining bald head under the neon light at a glance. He pointed at the monk not far away and said softly: "I'm here to find someone."
"Please." The bunny girl smiled and stepped aside.
At this time, a greasy voice came from the side, and a man who looked half drunk held a wine bottle and said, "Jennifer, why didn't you greet me when I came in?"
"Is it just because he is handsome?"
The bunny girl named Jennifer turned to glance at him and replied simply: "Yes."
"You're too ugly. You're not my type."
There was a roar of laughter all around.
The man's expression was a little lost. He might have been drunk. When Jennifer passed by his table, he suddenly reached out and touched her butt.
Click!
When Su Ziyu heard the voice and turned around, the man had already been knocked down to the ground by the bunny girl's joint-locking move. A small pistol was pressed against the drunk man's forehead. Jennifer said in a cold tone: "My butt is You can smash it and touch it? Why don't you go out and ask, which tunnel were you digging in when I was hunting zombies outside?"
"Bieber, throw him out." A calm male voice came.
soon.
A very burly man came over and said kindly to the man on the ground: "You drank too much. Go out and cool down for a while."
Then he picked up the man like a chicken, opened the door and threw him out.
There was another roar of laughter in the tavern.
"Why are you here?" Jie Se also noticed Su Ziyu at this time. He stood up with a smile and said to the bartender at the bar: "Give my friend a glass of fire."
After saying that, he smiled mischievously and winked: "What? Are you attracted to that girl?"
"That woman is not simple."
"He was also a well-known ruthless character in the neighborhood back then."
Su Ziyu smiled and shook his head. His current aesthetics had been raised too high by the sorceresses, Qing Ji and others. In the eyes of ordinary people, that bunny girl should be said to be a beauty, but in his opinion, he didn't know it at all. Pretty or not, I feel like a very ordinary white woman. What I remember most is that the smell of perfume on her body was a bit off-putting.
He had developed a good sense of aesthetics at the sorceress's place, but he had just spent time with Qing Ji not long ago, and ordinary beauties had no feeling at all in his eyes.
"I have something to do with you." Su Ziyu reached the edge of the bar and said, "I want to take on some tasks and make some money."
"You should be familiar with this area, right?"
Task
Jie Se turned around and looked at Su Ziyu up and down, and said, "Are you planning to take on the hunting mission?"
"The hunting missions that can be left now are all dealing with extraordinary monsters."
"I advise you to think about it carefully."
The tasks available in the gathering place are not simple. The simple ones have been completed long ago. Even the scavenger group sometimes takes on some simple tasks to try. None of the ones who can actually stay are easy to deal with. .
simply put.
Of all the tasks that can be posted in the gathering place, there are no novice tasks. Even veterans may overturn. Those tasks that can be completed are at least elite-level leader-level monsters.
"I'm sure." Su Ziyu smiled.
"Okay." Jiese stood up, walked directly towards the corner, and said, "Max! My friend wants to take on the hunting mission."
"Please take out the task entrustment."
The tavern was quiet for a while.
People nearby couldn't help but look Su Ziyu up and down. He could hear someone whispering, as if they were asking where he was from.
"Revenant Hunter?" A one-eyed man came over.
He took one look at Su Ziyu's dress, smiled and said, "I was also a wilderness hunter when I was young."
This man looks very tough.
He has a Chinese character face, a shaggy beard, and a tall and strong body. There are traces of burns on the back of his hands, and a scar on the side of his face, left by sharp claws. One eye has a black eyepatch. It’s not clear why he didn’t put on a mechanical eye. The whole person looks calm and powerful, and although his body is relaxed, it can explode at any time. Just a glance can tell that he is not an easy enemy to deal with.
"Some simple tasks have been completed by the gang of scavengers." Max took out a notebook and flipped it through: "There are still three tasks left."
"Which one suits you best?"
Su Ziyu reached out and took the book and glanced at it. He first looked at the reward, and then looked at the type of task.
The first task is to clean the mine.
The reward for the mission is the highest, with a total of 30,000 bottle caps, or they can be exchanged for corresponding weapons, ammunition and other materials. This is obviously not a task that can be completed by one person, and it takes a lot of time. It is a large abandoned mine. It is estimated that you have to drill deep underground to clean it. No wonder no one has finished it after leaving it for so long.
"Don't go to the mine." Jiese came over at this time, patted Su Ziyu on the shoulder and said, "It's full of rats, cockroaches, and other weird things down there."
"Last time, dozens of people were sent in to the gathering place, and they only stayed there for half a day before escaping."
"Some places have collapsed."
Su Ziyu turned the page and looked at the second mission. It looked a bit familiar, because the mission was to kill a highly mutated mire crab queen, which occupied a water source area with its offspring. The people who issued the mission were the water merchants at the elk gathering place.
"This task is not easy either." Jiese touched his bald head and said, "I've been there."
"Those crabs have mutated so much."
"Ordinary bullets can't penetrate it. Last time I wanted to eat crab meat, I wasted more than 300 bullets to kill one."
"But it tastes really good."
This task can be considered.
The remuneration is also pretty good, with a total income of more than 5,000 bottle caps.
The final mission is to hunt down the Deathclaw.
When Su Ziyu turned over, he could still see a sketched monster. Max in front of him smiled and said, "It should be the easiest to deal with the Death Claw if you are alone."
"But be careful."
"It's quite fast, and ordinary firearms won't have much effect on it."
"Better use heavy firepower."
"This scar was left by the Death Claw back then. I also killed one when I was young."
Deathclaw is a mutated chameleon.
They survived the extremely strong radiation, became quite large, and moved very quickly. They are a kind of monster that wilderness hunters often have to face but are quite difficult to deal with. The elk gathering place also sent people to hunt it, but unfortunately they failed several times and lost a lot of people. This kind of monster is not something ordinary people can deal with, and modified mechanical prostheses are vulnerable to it.
The reward for the Death Claw mission is also pretty good. If you kill it, you can get 3,500 bottle caps.
"That's it." Su Ziyu stood up and said.
He looked at Max in front of him and said, "Is it enough to just bring its head back?"
"Yes." Max nodded and said: "You'd better drive a car, its head may be a bit heavy."
Jiese came over at this time and whispered: "You don't really plan to challenge the Death Claws alone, do you?"
"That monster cannot be dealt with by one person."
"Even if you have undergone bionic transformation, don't be careless!"
Su Ziyu accepted his kindness, but still said: "It's okay. I'm sure."
"Do you have a car?"
"Lend me one. Then I need a guide to take me to that area."
Su Ziyu is really not familiar with this area.
If he were to drive alone to find it, he would probably get lost. He would need a guide to tell him the specific location.
"Yes, there is." Jiese touched his bald head and said, "But then you have to find someone who is not afraid of death."
"The price will be a little high too."
After speaking, he patted Su Ziyu on the shoulder and said, "Come with me."
"I know a little girl."
"She is more courageous and will probably take you there, as long as you are willing to pay."
Before leaving.
The bunny girl passed by Su Ziyu again. She looked at him curiously, blew a kiss and said, "Handsome guy. Don't die."
Su Ziyu smiled and said nothing.
Jiese took him out of the tavern and entered an alley. After twists and turns, he came to a little shabby shack, then he patted the door and shouted: "Mattie. Little fox? Are you there?" "
soon.
The door opened.
The muzzle of a black gun was in front of me, and then a nervous female voice came: "Is it you? Baldy? What are you doing here?"
Jie Se raised his hands in embarrassment and said to Su Ziyu next to him, "Don't mind."
"She's about the same size as me."
“I grew up alone, so I’m a little wary.”
After saying that, he reached out to block the muzzle of the gun in front of him and lowered his voice: "I'll introduce you to a profitable job. Are you interested?"
"No." The little girl inside said simply, raising her hand to close the door.
boom.
Jiese's expression became even more embarrassed. He touched his bald head and smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll introduce you to another one."
"This girl is a little rebellious and has a bad temper."
Su Ziyu's expression didn't change much. Anyway, he just needed someone to take him there.
"etc!"
Just when they were about to leave, the door suddenly opened again, and then a tomboy-like girl with short hair and jeans and canvas clothes came out. She first looked at Su Ziyu warily, and then shouted at Jiese Said: "Bald man. What kind of work?"
"This friend of mine is going to hunt the Deathclaw." Jiese turned around and coughed and said, "You just need to take him there."
Hearing Jise's words, the little girl in front of him looked contemptuous, and said with a cold face: "I still have a sister to support, and you actually introduced me to a job that will lead to death?"
"What does it mean to die?" Jiese glared at her when he heard this, and then asked in surprise: "Where did you get your sister?"
"I want you to take care of it." The little girl snorted, looked up and down at the Su Ziyu in front of her, and asked, "Wild Hunters? How many of you are there?"
"Deathclaws are not that easy to deal with."
"I can take you there, but I want a reward of 150 bottle caps. After all, I have to risk my life."
Su Ziyu looked at the tomboy in front of him. He looked quite handsome, but had a bad temper. He said softly: "It's just me."
"Bah!" A mouthful of phlegm was spat in the direction of Jingse. The little girl in front of him was so angry that his eyebrows stood up, and she glared at Jingse and said: "You damn thing said you are not going to die! He is the only one who went hunting. Kill the claws of death?”
"Dude."
"I advise you to go back. One person cannot kill the Deathclaw."
"I've seen that monster before."
"A hunting team at the gathering area was so frightened by it that they fled back."
Su Ziyu smiled and shook his head: "Thanks for the reminder. I can handle it."
Jiese walked over at this time, lowered his voice a little and said: "This friend of mine is a bionic transformation person. A sharpshooter. He shoots radioactive zombies in the head from a distance of 300 meters."
"You should think about it yourself whether you want to go or not."
Bionic transformation of people
The little girl in front of her looked at Su Ziyu curiously, as if she couldn't tell any difference from ordinary people. Everyone has heard of bionic technology, but not many have actually seen it. It is only said that after the transformation, the appearance will be exactly the same as that of a human being.
correct.
It is said that bionic people have no scars on their bodies and they can replace their own bionic skin.
This man is so white.
There seemed to be no scars on his body.
The little girl in front of me thought for a moment, then raised her head and said, "I can take you there. But I won't enter the Death Claw's range. I will wait for you outside for a day. If you haven't come back yet, I will leave by myself." ”
"in addition."
"I want 300 bottle caps as payment!"
The price has doubled.
The little girl in front of him said as if explaining: "This is the area where I have seen the Death Claw with my own eyes, and I know where it will appear."
"If it had been anyone else, you would have been looking for a long time."
"The bounty for the Deathclaw is more than 3,000 bottle caps. I don't want much, less than one-tenth."
Money doesn't matter.
Su Ziyu's purpose was to hunt for source power and earn some money to buy things, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
