Chapter 579: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
The mystery man pays a lot of money to hire you bounty hunters to go to the western and southern provinces and annihilate the zombies?"
"Yes!"
"Who?"
The leader of the Hunter Guild named Sun Jia suddenly sweated on his forehead: "This...... Well, Grand Duke, we in the Bounty Hunters Guild have a pact with the employer of the bounty mission and cannot reveal the identity of the anonymous bounty. ”
Kan Jing, who was sitting next to Chen Ning, said coldly: "Do you think that if you don't say it, the Metropolitan Governor won't be able to find out?"
Sun Jia thought to herself, it's one thing for you to find out, but it's another thing for me to tell the employer, I can't break the rules myself!
Chen Ning seemed to be able to see through Sun Jia's thoughts, and said lightly: "If you don't say it, I can also guess who the bounty is, and it belongs to those forces." But I'm going to ask you anyway, because I want you to answer me personally, and of course you can decide not to answer. But I must tell you that your answer will affect my opinion of you, and of your Bounty Hunters Guild. ”
What do you think of bounty hunters?
The world has mixed reviews of bounty hunters, and some people who have been helped and saved by bounty hunters think that bounty hunters are heroes. But more people look down on bounty hunters, thinking that bounty hunters are doing things for their employers, they are lackeys chasing money, they can do anything when they have money, money is supreme, and there is no faith at all.
If it weren't for the magnates of some wealthy clans, they would need bounty hunters to help them do something from time to time, maybe the bounty hunters would have been suppressed and eliminated long ago.
Now that Chen Ning is the governor of the empire, he is in a high position, and Chen Ning's words can make an industry disappear.
Although the bounty hunter industry will not be eliminated so easily, if Chen Ning really wants to suppress the Bounty Guild, it is estimated that it will not be difficult, and even if the Bounty Guild is not eliminated, life will become very sad.
Therefore, what Chen Ning said is very meaningful.
Kan Jing also looked at Sun Jia and said coldly: "The Metropolitan Governor is giving you a chance, don't you say that we can also find out who is giving out the reward." Your bounty hunters' ability to gather information is also superb, and you, as the president of the Bounty Guild, must know what the purpose of this bounty mission is? Now give you a chance to stand on the sidelines, and you decide for yourself what position your Bounty Guild stands, and also decide what position your Bounty Guild stands. ”
Indeed, as Suga said, the Hunters' Guild's ability to gather intelligence is very strong.
Sun Jia naturally knew that it was the Fu family who offered a large reward for annihilating the zombies, and Sun Jia had also heard about the Fu family and several other first-class families wanting to force Chen Ning to step down.
So this matter is very simple, Fu Tianlong and others want to use the Hunter Guild to annihilate the remnant zombie power, and strive to make the empire basically have no large zombie power within half a year, and then announce the lifting of the war alert, and finally let Chen Ning step down justifiably.
This matter is the struggle between Chen Ning and Fu Tianlong and his gang, and it is a collision of the old and new aristocratic forces.
It is precisely because Sun Jia knows the stakes that he will personally come to ask Chen Ning's opinion to see if Chen Ning agrees to offer rewards for these tasks?
Sun Jia wanted to make money, and he also wanted to have a good relationship with Fu Tianlong and other characters, but he didn't want to offend Chen Ning, so he came.
But what he didn't expect was that Chen Ning actually threw out such a dilemma for him, whether to choose the Metropolitan Governor or the four elders of the cabinet, there is no middle to stand!
If you choose the four elders of the cabinet, it is estimated that next, the Metropolitan Governor Chen Ning will unceremoniously start suppressing the Hunter Guild, and whether the Hunter Guild can survive at that time is one thing, and if the Metropolitan Governor Chen Ning wins the game with the four elders of the cabinet, then the Hunter Guild will never come out.
Chen Ning looked at Sun Jia, who was sweating, and said calmly: "I think you are a smart person, and for the sake of you taking the initiative to come to me, I will give you this opportunity to stand on the side." Now the excuse ahead is a red light, and before the green light comes on, you have to make a decision. If you work for me, stay in the car, and if not, get off. ”
When Sun Jia heard this, he immediately looked up at the front of the car, and there was indeed a red light in front of him.
As the seconds passed, the red light went out, the yellow light flashed, and finally the green light came on......
Sun Jia still didn't get out of the car, the driver drove the car, the vehicle started, and moved forward slowly, Chen Ning saw that Sun Jia didn't get out of the car in the end, and smiled: "Let's talk about it, who hired you to release these tasks?"
Sun Jia didn't get out of the car, so naturally he chose to play for Chen Ning on both sides of Chen Ning and the four elders of the cabinet.
After all, Chen Ning is the Metropolitan Governor, and he has been fighting horses for ten years, fighting in the south and the north, and has never lost a battle, he can be called the first person in the empire, and now his strength is also the best in the group, although Fu Tianlong and others have a great power, but Sun Jia feels that the Metropolitan Governor has a better chance to win in this game. If he had to stand, he gritted his teeth and chose to support Chen Ning.
Sun Jia opened his mouth and said, "The person who came to talk to me is Fu Yunfei, but he asked to publish these bounty tasks anonymously. ”
Chen Ning nodded: "It's similar to what I thought, it's the old guys in the cabinet, who want to let me go down quickly." ”
Since Sun Jia chose to serve Chen Ning, he could only go all the way to the dark, and he couldn't help but ask: "Metropolitan Governor, what should I do now?"
Chen Ning: "If you don't help them issue bounty tasks, they will definitely suppress and retaliate against your Hunter Guild." But if you really put too much effort into it, you're going to get me in trouble. In this way, you can release the task, but secretly tell the top powerhouses of your Hunter Guild not to take it seriously, just play perfunctory. ”
Sun Jia breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, Dadudu, I understand how to do it." ”
Sun Jia remembered something: "However, Fu Yunfei seems to have contacted the mercenaries, and is even preparing to dispatch their private armed forces to exterminate the remnants of the zombies." ”
Chen Ning: "It's okay, I'm free to assert it." But I like the ability of your Hunter Guild to gather intelligence, you keep an eye on them for me, and send someone to report to me if there is any trouble. ”
"Yes, Grand Duke!"
Chen Ning knew that if he wanted the horse to run, it would not work without giving him some grass to eat, so he immediately said to Sun Jia, intentionally or unintentionally: "Your intelligence and talent are good, I appreciate you, if a person like you is in the army, the worst is at the level of Kanqing!"
Sun Jia is not a stupid person, as soon as he heard it, he understood what the metropolitan governor meant, the metropolitan governor is doing a good job, and if he does a good job, it will not be a matter of worshipping the marquis in the future!
Sun Jia suddenly became extremely excited, in the apocalyptic era, the most powerful thing is the military of the empire, and the status of the bounty hunter is much higher than that of the general. To put it simply, a bounty hunter is like a dog's leg, if you have the opportunity to become a general, then you can really step into the upper echelons of the empire!
Sun Jia said excitedly: "Don't worry, Sun will do his best to serve the governor of Dadu and rest until death." ”
When he almost arrived at the Military Aircraft Academy, Chen Ning put Sun Jia in the car.
The next two days passed quietly, and the only movement was that the Bounty Guild had released a lot of tasks to annihilate zombies, and the low-level hunters were extremely interested, and they went to the western provinces and the southern provinces to hunt zombies, but the high-level hunters didn't seem to pay much attention to these tasks.
On the third day, the Qinglong Scientific Research Base finally had the results, and Chen Ning was notified as soon as possible.
Chen Ning, Wei Qing, Qin Que, Kan Jing, Tear Zongheng, Qin Yingqi, Luo Hu and other subordinates hurriedly came to the research base.
When I came to the huge office, I found that Golia, Bob, Caesar and others all had solemn faces.
Chen Ning frowned and asked, "What is the result?"
Bob opened his mouth and said: "Bad news, this guy does not belong to our species on Earth, but an alien visitor, the metal gear on his body is very high-tech, and judging from his body structure, their combat effectiveness is exceptionally strong. We came to the conclusion that this is an alien that once appeared on Earth, and every time it appears, it will bring disaster to Earth. The first time they appeared, they created vampires and werewolves, but in the end, the vampires and werewolves did not obey their orders and rebelled, so the aliens' attempt to create puppets to destroy the earthlings was unsuccessful...... According to our Holy See's latest collection, the last time this kind of alien appeared was more than three hundred years ago, and not long after that, the zombie virus broke out, and we didn't think too much about it at first, but now we think about it, based on the close relationship between aliens and zombies, and even the situation that they have fought side by side, we dare to guess that the zombie virus is likely to be created by aliens!"
