Mechanical Flesh - Chapter54

Iron Chariots, Hunter's Guild.

"Mission submission."

Qi Yuan took out his Hunter's Badge and Bug Detector and handed them to the staff of the Hunter's Guild.

The person who received Qi Yuan was a girl in black who was no more than twenty years old. She looked at Qi Yuan's Badge, Level C Authorization, and her eyes were filled with suspicion.

She had memorized the information of all the Level C Hunters in the Iron Chariots, but none of them matched the young man in front of her.

"Please wait a moment!"

The girl in black took Qi Yuan's Badge and was about to find someone to verify it.

Although the Hunter's Guild had always strictly prohibited the use of other people's identities, it could not completely eliminate the existence of such a phenomenon. Some people would even kill other Hunters and use their badges and Bug Detector to obtain the mission reward in order to obtain the mission reward.

Soon, the girl in black returned with the badge.

The information had been verified, and the suspicion in her eyes turned into surprise.

There was no problem with his identity. He was indeed a Level C Hunter who had been evaluated the day before, and a very young Level C Hunter with a bright future.

"Mr. Abyss, your mission has been verified and confirmed. May I ask if you want the reward in cash or directly transfer it to your personal account?"

The Hunter's Guild had bases all over Planet Aquamarine and had always maintained a good reputation. Therefore, the Hunter's Guild had built a complete payment system. The Hunter's Badge was tied to one's iris. Other than identifying one's identity, it also had functions similar to the old era's bank cards, allowing one to deposit and make payments.

Although the mission was difficult, the reward was not cheap. There was a total of sixty thousand in cash and six Authorization Points, which was the highest reward for a Level C mission.

Sixty thousand in cash was not convenient to carry around, and it was easy to be targeted. Qi Yuan thought about it and finally decided to transfer it to his personal account.

"Transfer ten thousand to Jia Tao's account, and put the rest into my personal account!"

Qi Yuan kept a few thousand dollars in cash and deposited the remaining tens of thousands of dollars into his personal account.

After the girl in black deposited all of Qi Yuan's cash and mission reward into his personal account, she respectfully returned the Hunter's Badge to Qi Yuan.

"Mr. The Abyss, this is your badge. Please keep it well."

"Thank you!" Qi Yuan took the medal and turned to leave.

After Qi Yuan left, a green-clothed girl suddenly ran over. She approached the black-clothed girl and asked with a smile:

"How about The Abyss? Do you like it?"

The black-clothed girl shyly nodded before shaking her head in disappointment.

"Why are you nodding and shaking your head at the same time!" The green-clothed girl couldn't help but scratch her.

The two of them played around for a while. Then, the girl in green couldn't help but whisper.

"In the Iron Chariots, there aren't many C-grade Hunters as young as The Abyss. Who knows, they might have the chance to join the Black Steel Shelter in the future!

Don't you want to go to God's Sanctuary?

This is a chance to change your fate! "

Powerful Wilderness Hunters could enter the Shelter through applications and tests, becoming official residents of the Shelter. Staff members of the Hunter's Guild like her were basically cut off from this path due to their lack of strength.

However, they weren't completely without hope. If they could hook up with a powerful Hunter, they would have a chance to become a resident of the Shelter as his spouse when he entered the Shelter.

"He's a C-grade Hunter. Why would he like me?" The black-clothed girl said faintly.

"You ah, you wasted such a good opportunity!" The green-clothed girl said with some resentment in her voice.

"A hot-blooded young man like him is the easiest to flirt with. Besides, he just completed his registration yesterday. The others don't know the situation and definitely haven't had the chance to make a move yet. If I knew you were so useless, I would've done it myself!"

"There's no chance." The black-clothed girl shook her head slightly. "Do you know what his first mission was?"

Hearing the black-clothed girl say that, the green-clothed girl was puzzled.

"What's wrong?

You're not going to tell me that he completed a C-grade mission, are you? "

The black-clothed girl shook her head and said, "No, he completed a C-grade mission."

"Then what are you trying to say?"

The green-clothed girl asked, puzzled. "Do you want him to be like the other C-grade Hunters, who would rather not have authority points and only dare to pick those C-grade missions?"

After the Hunter's Guild divided the Hunter's authority levels, to prevent people from leveling up through low-grade missions, there were corresponding restrictions on the rewards of missions.

That was to discourage cross-grade missions.

The Hunter's Guild forbade Hunters from accepting missions with authority levels higher than their own. For example, C-grade Hunters were not allowed to accept C-grade + missions.

At the same time, although the Hunter's Guild did not explicitly forbid Hunters from accepting missions with authority levels lower than their own, there were corresponding punishments. That was to cancel the authority points reward.

If a C-grade Hunter completed a C-grade mission, although he would receive the corresponding monetary reward, he would not receive authority points. Therefore, he would not be able to increase his authority level through low-grade missions.

Only when a C-grade Hunter completed a C-grade mission could he receive all the mission rewards, including monetary and authority points.

"He chose a mission to exterminate a Zerg's Nest!

The monetary reward is sixty thousand and authority points are six, "the black-clothed girl said softly.

The green-clothed girl was stunned when she heard that.

"How many people accepted the mission?"

"Just him alone!

Also, I used the Zerg Beast Detector to test him. He's only a Rank-1. "

"How is that possible?!" The green-clothed girl could not help but shout.

"How can a Rank-1 be given a C-grade authority level? How can he complete a mission to exterminate a Zerg's Nest alone?!

Is there an organization behind him that's helping him? "

The danger of a Zerg's Nest was deeply ingrained in everyone's hearts. Even an incomplete Zerg's Nest would have dozens of Zerg monsters inside. Moreover, the monetary reward and authority points of the mission were basically the limit of a C-grade mission. This meant that the Zerg's Nest was definitely not a fake one with only Rank-1 Zerg monsters. There must be many Rank-2 Zerg monsters inside, and there might even be Rank-3 Zerg monsters.

For a Zerg's Nest of such a dangerous level, even a Rank-3 Hunter would not be able to exterminate it alone, let alone a Rank-1 Hunter. Most Hunters would need to form a team to have a chance of completing the mission.

Therefore, not many people were willing to accept a C-grade mission to exterminate a Zerg's Nest. Rank-C Hunters dared not accept it, and Rank-C + Hunters were unwilling to accept it.

Most Hunters with Rank-C + authority would choose to wait for a month when they encountered such a mission. If no one accepted it after a month, the Hunter's Guild would evaluate the mission again. Most of the time, the reward would be increased and the mission would be upgraded to a C-grade mission.

It was only then that Rank-C + Hunters would try to form a team to accept the mission.

"I don't know either." The black-clothed girl shook her head.

"What a pity." The green-clothed girl sighed.

"I thought it was a newbie with potential. I didn't expect it to be a guy who was promoted. You're right not to offend people like him!"

They had also seen some forces using this method to increase a hunter's authorization level. The purpose was naturally to send them to God's Sanctuary. A C + Hunter's authorization could not only bring all kinds of benefits, but also extra points in the assessment to enter God's Sanctuary.

Hunters who were promoted by the organizations behind them were far more dangerous than ordinary Hunters. This was because the people behind them would never allow the Hunters that they put in so much effort to promote to waste their time and energy on an ordinary Hunter's Guild staff.

"Don't worry. There's another one if this one doesn't work. Those men are hunting Zerg beasts outside, and we'll hunt them here. I believe that with your looks, you'll definitely be able to catch a decent man!"

The green-clothed girl comforted the black-clothed girl who was a little disappointed. She glanced at the clock on the wall and said uneasily, "My man is coming back soon. I have to go and take a look. I don't want him to be taken away by others. Help me here!"

"Oh, go ahead!" The black-clothed girl nodded.

"Thank you!"

The green-clothed girl chuckled and hurriedly left the Hunter's Hall. She walked in the direction of her home. When she passed by a courtyard with a half-covered door, she looked left and right. After making sure that no one was following her, she walked into the half-opened door.

Behind the door was an empty courtyard. A burly man was hammering his iron fist against a metal doll in the courtyard. The burly man's expression changed slightly when he saw the green-clothed girl.

Without waiting for the man to speak, the green-clothed girl took out a ring and waved it in front of his eyes. She quickly said in a low voice, "Is Night Owl here?

I have something to talk to him about. "

The man glanced at her and said, "He's inside. You can go and find him yourself."

The green-clothed girl nodded and walked past the burly man. She pushed the door open and walked into the room inside.

After walking down a flight of stairs, the green-clothed girl arrived at a gloomy basement. Piles of scattered sundries were piled up in the basement in a disorderly manner. A thick layer of dust floated above them. It seemed as if no one had lived here for a long time.

The green-clothed girl walked to the innermost area and pulled open a black wooden wardrobe that was leaning against the corner. She found an inconspicuous hole in the wall and pressed the ring in her hand into it before twisting it gently.

Ka-cha!

Ka-cha!

The ground in the corner suddenly moved. Soon, a pitch-black metal tunnel appeared in front of the green-clothed girl.

The green-clothed girl glanced down and jumped directly into it.

After walking through a dark passage, a dark red wooden door appeared in front of her.

The green-clothed girl took a deep breath and pushed the door open.

A room with a thick carpet, a crystal chandelier hanging above her head, and all kinds of powerful firearms hanging on the wall appeared in front of her eyes.

A thin man wearing a monocle and a loose white shirt had his back to the door. He was holding a white cloth towel and carefully wiping the barrel of a sniper rifle.

Hearing the door open, the thin man didn't turn his head. He just said in a flat tone, "I remember that we've been keeping an eye on you.

Recently, Ling You's people have their eyes on us. If there's nothing important, don't come here. "

The green-clothed girl lowered her head and said in a low voice, "I found a murderer. The murderer of the Xu family's bloodline!"

The thin man's movements paused. He then gently hung the sniper rifle back on the wall. Only then did he turn around and stare at the green-clothed girl.

"Raise your head and speak."

The green-clothed girl raised her head in trepidation. Her eyes did not dare to meet the man's gaze. It was as if the man in front of her was not human, but her natural enemy.

"How did you find the murderer?"

"Bloodline Vengeance!" The green-clothed girl said with a slight tremble, "I sensed that he killed a member of the Xu family's bloodline!"

"Tell me about the murderer."

The green-clothed girl told him everything she knew. The man fell into a short silence.

After a while, he murmured to himself, "That's right.

"The Abyss … A Wilderness Hunter who appeared in the Iron Chariots yesterday. He only has the strength of a Rank 1, but he was assessed as a Rank C. The next day, he completed a clearing mission in the Insectoid Nest …"

"Xu Yi, do you know what you just said?" Nightingale shouted in a low voice.

Xu Yi trembled and said in a trembling voice, "I'm telling the truth. He's really only a Rank 1. I used the Insectoid Detector to test him. I also checked his mission log. He did complete a clearing mission in the Insectoid Nest today and received a reward of 60,000 gold and 6 Rank Points."

"Do you have any detailed information about his Rank?"

"No." Xu Yi shook his head.

"Mr. Wu has encrypted his information. I don't have the authority to look at it."

"Wu Qianshou!" Nightingale's pupils shrank. A hint of fear flashed in his eyes.

"No matter who he is, as long as he dares to touch a member of the Xu family, he will pay the price!"

Nightingale closed his eyes and thought for a while. Then he opened his eyes and said slowly:

"Recently, the Quicksand Shelter has been hunting us down. Many people have been forced to leave the Quicksand Shelter. The Iron Chariots seem to have received the news and are secretly investigating us. We can't act rashly. We can't let Ling You find out."

"Go find a gang and tell them that Qi Yuan has a huge amount of money. Let them test the strength of The Abyss."

Xu Yi took a deep breath.

"I'll go find the Black Widow. She's a Rank 3, and she's most interested in young geniuses like The Abyss."

"Don't go to her." Nightingale shook his head, "The Black Widow is one of Ling You's people. If you go to her, you'll expose our existence."

Xu Yi's mouth fell open. He couldn't believe his ears. The Black Widow was one of the strongest gangs in the Iron Chariots Shelter. She was one of Ling You's people.

Nightingale snorted.

"Why do you think Ling You is in charge of the Iron Chariots' Underworld?

Because of the two hunting teams under her, or the useless city guards? "

"The Black Widow has done a lot of dirty work for her in the dark!"

"Go find the Blood Hand. Blood Hand is only a Rank 2. Although he can't deal with insectoids, he's still good at killing people. Moreover, he only cares about money. As long as he has money, he'll even dare to kill his own parents. Find a way to let him know that Qi Yuan has a huge amount of money. He'll definitely make a move on Qi Yuan!"

"Yes!" Xu Yi replied.

"Remember, do this secretly. Don't let anyone catch you. If there's nothing important, don't come here for a while."

"Yes!"

After Xu Yi turned and left, Nightingale narrowed his eyes and snorted.

"A bunch of trash. You spent so much of your family's resources and can't even deal with a Rank 1 Hunter!"
