Lan Qi is fifty years old this year, and he is black. Because of his natural white hair and beard, he got the nickname "Bald Eagle". But the nickname doesn't just refer to his looks, it also alludes to his eagle-like eyes. In addition to the infallible principle, Lan Qi has an almost innate keen insight into unknown things, which is why he was able to wander the Southwest for nearly five years without becoming monster food.
Lan Qi's ability is the fifth-level sniper specialization. This ability can barely be regarded as a master among ordinary organizations and superhumans. But in Elk Town, a place where the average adventurer has a seventh-level ability, Lan Qi is pitifully weak. But many people who were stronger than him died, but the bald eagle is still alive. Lan Qi naturally has his own way of survival, that is, not to do things beyond his own ability.
In the past five years, his figure has been haunting the edge of the southwest land. This area occupies tens of thousands of square kilometers and has become a buffer zone between Elk Town and the southwest land. Although most of the maps in this gray zone are already familiar to adventurers, many species and resources are not valued by adventurers. In their hearts, they have long believed that great wealth can only be discovered from deeper unknown places.
The bald eagle locked his eyes on this gray zone, he was very aware of his abilities, even if he survived in this gray zone, it was already quite difficult, not to mention those unrecognized areas. In the past five years, Lan Qi has unearthed a lot of valuable information on this gray belt, but he is very clear that he cannot bring these precious resources out of Elk Town by himself.
So he chose another way to make money, which was to sell this information in taverns. It turned out that he was right, the gray area was far safer than the unknown area, although the information provided by Lan Qi could not get more resources than what was occasionally brought back from the unknown area. However, due to the scarcity of resources in the unknown area and the huge danger, Lan Qi's information was extremely popular.
The information fee for half a month alone has already made Lan Qi's savings close to seven figures. And this money was not prepared by Lan Qi for himself. The retirement expenses paid by the Parkland chaebol for him are enough for him to spend the rest of his life happily. Bald Eagle still works hard to make money after retirement, but for his son Kabu.
The fifth-level sniper specialization is already the limit that Lan Qi can achieve, and his son Kaboo has shown a rare talent in the field of perception at a young age. Now he has become the first heir of the Parkland chaebol Sauron. Track the experts. Undoubtedly, Kaboo's future will be even greater than Lan Qi's. Every penny the Bald Eagle earns in the Southwest will be handed over to Kaboo for formula fees to improve his abilities.
He devoted all his heart and soul to his son.
Lan Qi is about to leave Elk Town, and the valuable information has almost been sold, so he has no reason to stay in the town. Today, after selling the last piece of information, Bald Eagle ordered the whiskey he was pregnant with as a farewell farewell for him to leave.
While slowly tasting the amber-colored milk in his arms, a young soldier pushed open the door of the tavern, and rushed towards him in a panic. The keen perception ability of the sniper expert immediately noticed the difference, and Lan Qi's hand had already lightly landed on the waist *. He didn't bring his sniper rifle Falcon III, but the automatic pistol of the old dynasty on his body was enough for Lan Qi to deal with any situation.
"Mr. Lankey..." The soldier came to the bar and called the bald eagle's name out of breath.
Lan Qi lazily said: "My information has been sold out, if you want information, report it to other intelligence merchants."
"What are you talking about? Mr. Lan Qi, I am looking for you on behalf of Lord Sauron."
The soldier stood upright, and Lan Qi saw the badge of the Parkland Plutocrat on his tactical uniform. Bald Eagle's heart skipped a beat for no reason, he dropped his wine bag and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"
Sauron would never send someone all the way to Elk Town to find a retired sniper expert for no reason, and Lan Qi couldn't find a reasonable reason except for his son Kaboo.
"Mr. Lan Qi, I'm sorry to tell you a bad news. His Excellency Sauron's tracking expert, that is, your son Mr. Kabu, died in a mission two months ago!"
"What?"
The bald eagle roared loudly, seeing the sudden excitement of this usually quiet adventurer, the others cast strange glances.
"What mission? How did Kabu die? Killed by a monster?"
For Lan Qi, Kabu is the continuation and hope of his life. Although Lan Qi knows in his heart that there is no such thing as safety in the wilderness, Kabu may die in a ruin at any time, so Lan Qi is desperately making money in order to improve his son's ability to ensure his safety. But the bald eagle never thought that Kabu would leave him so soon.
"Mr. Kabu was killed by a supernatural being named Zero. Here is a video, you can watch it." The soldier took out the tactical board and called up a video from it.
This video is just a recording of Zero Runaway, and the Blood Cavaliers will record the mission process when they go out on missions. In order to prevent yourself from dying in battle, you can provide the necessary information support for the task successor. The video of Kaboo being killed by Zero was also recorded by the brain that Sauron carried with him, and the clip that Lan Qi saw now was edited from the record of the brain.
In the screen, Zero is like a human-shaped monster, with the speed of 5000 frames per second, the intellectual brain can only barely capture the trajectory of his movement. Watching the intermittent afterimage blink and break through Sauron's positional defense, and then approach the moment of Kaboo. My son was thrown out like a puppet, and when he landed, his head was twisted 180 degrees, and his twisted neck couldn't survive no matter how he looked at it.
From running away from zero to Kaboo being killed, the whole process took less than 5 seconds. Lan Qi couldn't help but calm down when he was angry.
Undoubtedly, zero in the picture is powerful. According to Lan Qi's experience estimation, Zero has at least about the sixth level of strength and the ability to enhance agility. If Lan Qi let Zero get close, he would be instantly killed without any suspense. But in Lan Qi's heart, Zero is not so strong as to be absolutely overwhelming, which means that both traps and sniping can kill this opponent who is slightly stronger than himself.
"Give me his information! Everything!"
The simple words revealed Lan Qi's strong killing intent.
And tens of kilometers away, Zero on the wilderness outside Nujiao City felt a chill at the same time, it was like the bad feeling when being aimed by a sniper rifle, making Zero instantly lowered his body. After a while, after confirming that there were no snipers within two kilometers, he stood up.
Zero silently looked towards the direction where the chill came, and a bolt of lightning exploded from the thick radiation cloud in the southwest sky from time to time.
The storm is coming!
