Chapter 61: The Tool Man of Feelings

As Zhou Chaolin said, the Demon Hunting Guild is not weak, and it can even be said that they are the semi-official organization with the strongest combat ability in Qingding County except for the Kaijing Night Division.

In the end, it is a group of people who deal with demon beasts all day long, and if they take out a random one that doesn't have any special abilities, they are also outstanding in ordinary people.

But now is indeed the time when they are at their weakest.

On the one hand, the few powerful demon hunting teams in the guild are in the Lianfeng Mountain Range, and whether they can be rushed back or not, it is very difficult to even spread the news.

On the other hand, just like Shopkeeper Chen said before, the Demon Hunting Guild never considered seeking the help of the Jing Ye Division from beginning to end, and it was impossible to compromise with the Jing Ye Division even if everyone died outside, rushing to the mountain and being eaten by that monster as a snack.

Whether it will be the "truth" in the follow-up Lu Jiu doesn't know, at least for now.

This made the remaining demon hunting team gather in Qingding City to discuss how to deal with the demon beast, and the demon hunting guild also temporarily issued a task with a very high reward for this purpose, which can be regarded as a hint to some extent that as long as this trouble can be solved as soon as possible, even if it is no problem to spend money to find foreign help.

"The body of that demon is a fragrant roe deer, and its ability to fight head-on is very weak, and the biggest trouble is its extraordinary ability that has now changed, Miasma!"

After a general explanation of the situation, Zhou Chaolin finally mentioned the most critical part,

"At the beginning, the Demon Hunter Guild raised it because of this ability, which can fog up in the mountains, thus covering the guild building, and occasionally outsiders will be sent out without a trace if they mistakenly settle in the place...... Under normal circumstances, this ability will not cause any harm to people, but because of this unexplained mutation, the ability of the incense deer that has been alienated into a demon has also changed, and the news that our people brought back is that the miasma has not only become more dense, but it seems that other changes have occurred, and it is certain that the air in the mountains has suddenly become as thin as the plateau environment, and normal people will have problems if they stay in it for a long time!"

"So those oxygen cylinders downstairs are for entering the miasma?"

Zhou Chaolin's description of the demon made Lu Jiu immediately think of the picture he saw at the door of the inn, and at the same time, he also estimated in his heart that this ability didn't seem to be suitable for him, and what he needed was a more direct means of attack.

"That's right, after our internal discussions, only by finding the body of the miasma can we completely kill it, so we prepared those equipment, but although the oxygen cylinder alone can maintain normal activities in the miasma, in the case of the miasma, it is extremely difficult for us ordinary people to find the demon beast. ”

Demon hunters are accustomed to using all kinds of tools to fight demon beasts, but now they have also been countered because of their reliance on tools, Zhou Chaolin looked at Lu Jiu, and then said,

"That's why all the teams in our guild have been looking for help from the demon veiners in the past few days, and the demon veiners can still keenly perceive the location of the demon beast body even in that state after being strengthened by the five senses...... I take the liberty of asking, Brother Lu's hearing should have awakened, right?"

Seeing that Lu Jiu was so young, Zhou Chaolin obviously didn't expect him to complete the awakening of the five senses.

"I was lucky to succeed a few days ago. ”

Actually, it was only yesterday, but there is no need to tell the truth at this time.

"That's great, as long as Brother Lu is willing to help, we can provide a reward of 1 gold leaf!"

Hearing that Lu Jiu had completed the awakening of his hearing, Zhou Chaolin's face immediately showed a touch of joy, which was the most critical condition.

"I'm happy to help you, but my experience in fighting demon beasts is really barren, and the weapon was damaged a few days ago, and it is currently being repaired in the Liu Clan's Craftsman's Workshop. ”

This is the truth, the pair of mechanical armguards are still being repaired in the Liu Craftsman's Workshop, at least it will have to wait until tomorrow night to complete, Lu Jiu can only use a revolver and a short knife, it is okay to deal with people, and it is obviously not suitable to deal with a huge demon beast.

"That's ......"

Zhou Chaolin looked at Lu Jiu, and he was a little eager to speak, but he quickly put away his expression, and said in his heart that he was too anxious, and the young man in front of him knew at a glance that he should have just become a demon vein, and it was not nonsense to expect him to fight with demons and ghosts, so he hurriedly changed his words,

"It doesn't matter, as long as Brother Lu can help us lock the location of that demon, the battle will be left to us, but in this way, the remuneration may have to be reduced by a part, 60 silver dollars, I hope Brother Lu doesn't mind." ”

At other times, the reward would have to be cut in half or more, after all, the battle is the key.

But now is the time when the demon vein needs help, but Lu Jiu is the only choice at the moment, Zhou Chaolin is a little worried that the sudden bargaining is too ruthless to make Lu Jiu dissatisfied, and it is difficult to find someone who is willing to help, if they let go for this money, they will have no place to find a new tool person for a while.

At this time, the other demon hunting teams were already on their way to the station, so instead of missing the opportunity for these dozens of silver dollars, let's suffer some losses!

"I don't participate in the fight, so it's right to take less, it's just a small request. ”

Lu Jiu was a little confused, what he meant was actually to ask them to provide two weapons at hand...... However, since they misunderstood, Lu Jiu did not mean to deliberately explain.

Just showing people the way can get 60 silver dollars, naturally there is no reason to refuse, but Lu Jiu also took the opportunity to put forward the matter that he wanted to buy some qi-level demon beast blood, hoping that Zhou Chaolin would be able to help him inquire in the future.

This matter is obviously not a difficult thing for Zhou Chaolin, and after listening to it, he patted his chest and agreed, and said that he would help no matter whether the task was successful or not, just to make Lu Jiu a friend.

Now that the two sides have agreed on key issues, the rest is simple.

In order not to be preempted by other demon hunting teams, Zhou Chaolin prepared to set off immediately, wanting to arrive at the hill where the demon hunting guild was located before three o'clock in the afternoon.

This is also done to avoid night movements, otherwise the miasma in the mountains and the influence of vision at night will undoubtedly bring great trouble to the operation.

Lu Jiu had no objection to this decision, knowing that he would have to go to work at the newspaper office tomorrow, and it would be good to be able to settle the matter before tonight, so he took advantage of the final finishing here and immediately returned to the ancestral house to pick up the backpack.

Although he is just a tool man to guide the way, he still needs to be prepared.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the group gathered on time at the entrance of the inn.

Compared with the first meeting, Lu Jiu was still dressed in the same clothes, empty-handed, just an extra backpack, and there was no nervous look on his face at all.

It made him look less like he was going to hunt demons and more like he was going to go on a trip.

The people of the Qinglan Demon Hunting Team didn't say much when they saw this scene.

After all, he wasn't expected to participate in the battle, he was just a tool man, so naturally it didn't matter what he carried.
