Chapter 50: The Treasure Map
"Wait! You—You can't kill me! If I die...... No, what conditions do you have, just open, resource points, serum, supplies, women, whatever you want, I can meet you! ”
Seeing that Qi Lin had already raised the bone blade in his hand, the leader of the man in black was a little panicked, and quickly promised.
"Is anything really enough for me?" Qi Lin said playfully, the tip of the bone blade pointing slightly at the chest of the leader of the man in black.
Hearing that Qi Lin seemed to be a little interesting, the leader of the man in black breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Say, what are your conditions, as long as I can do it......"
"Tell me about your mission."
As soon as Qi Lin finished speaking, the leader of the man in black instantly exploded, and two curved Nepalese hunting knives appeared in his hands.
"Who are you?! Who sent you? ”
Obviously, the man in black misunderstood Qi Lin as the yellow finch in "praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind", Qi Lin didn't bother to say it, so he simply followed his meaning and took it: "You don't need to know this, you just need to tell me what 'that thing' is, and then put down all the materials and equipment on your body, and you can go." ”
"Dreaming!"
The leader of the man in black shouted, and two Nepalese hunting knives slashed at Qi Lin head-on!
Although the leader of the man in black is a little stronger than his subordinates, he is still an ordinary person, the two sides fought for less than two rounds, and his two arms holding knives and one right leg were unloaded by Qi Lin with a bone blade, just when Qi Lin was about to ask something more, the leader of the man in black who fell in a pool of blood suddenly tilted his head, and his eyes were round and hung up.
"Suicide by poisoning?" Qi Lin pinned the corpse's head with the tip of the bone blade, and found that a trace of black liquid flowed out of the other party's mouth.
"I'll go, I knew I would finish him directly, it's good now, suicide doesn't count as my kill, no experience points......"
It is said that in the old days, some spies and intelligence officers would put a denture in their mouth, and the denture was filled with a highly poisonous agent that sealed the throat with blood, and once the incident happened, in order to keep the secret and not be tortured, they would immediately bite the denture and commit suicide.
Coupled with the combat effectiveness of this group of black-clothed people far beyond the ordinary people in the shelter and even the army, as well as the sophisticated and unified equipment, Qi Lin couldn't help but have doubts.
Who will be the boss behind this group of people?
If you want to say that you have the ability to organize such a group of people, there is only Thunder among the people Qi Lin knows.
But if it's Thunder, this is his territory, and if he wants something, he can just ask the group of hunters to buy it, and he can't use this method at all.
Then it can be concluded that the men in black are not Thunder's subordinates, but the existence of "that thing" in their mouth must not be known to Thunder, at least not until they take "that thing" out of this area, otherwise Thunder will definitely intervene in it and will not let them get it so easily.
Suppressing his strong curiosity, Qi Lin first searched all the people in black, their weapons were either AR15 assault rifles imported from the United States in the old era or Type 97 made in China, the quality was blue, and only one Type 97 assault rifle was reduced to green quality because of damage to the crosshair.
In addition to weapons, there are plenty of dry food, ammunition, and "Jeter".
Jett, a low-quality military stimulant diluted with an extract of a hallucinogenic mushroom, is contained in small sniff spray bottles.
The effect of "Jet" is much worse than that of regular military stimulants, and the duration is shorter, but the side effects are more intense, and it can paralyze people's nerves and produce an indescribable sense of pleasure.
At the same time, once smoked, it is highly addictive.
"Jett", to put it bluntly, is a drug in the wasteland era, a substitute for the famous "heroin" and "ice" in the old era, and sometimes one or two can be bought in the underground black market of the Vault.
In reality, players who are addicted to "Jett" will also have the desire to smoke "Jett" in the game, and it seems that this group of people in black is basically all "addicts", and it is no wonder that they will be willing to work for others.
Aside from these Jets, Qi Lin didn't find any proof of identity representing these players, and the IDs of this group of players, like him, were a string of numeric codes automatically generated by the system.
After searching the body of the man in black, Qi Lin walked over to the body of the middle-aged hunter and rummaged through it carefully.
Weapons, ammunition, food, medicine, bits and pieces of mutated biological material...... The things carried by the middle-aged hunter are no different from those of ordinary hunter players, and the combined value of these things does not exceed five thousand resource points, which is not worth the people in black to make a fuss about.
Could it be that the other party didn't bring "that thing" with him at all?
It's not right, the men in black can seize the opportunity to ambush this group of hunters fiercely, it stands to reason that the information should be very sufficient, if this middle-aged hunter hides "that thing" somewhere else, this group of men in black will definitely know.
Perhaps, there are people in black in the ranks of this group of hunters!
With such a fierce battle taking place here, it may attract other players, so you can't stay long...... Just when Qi Lin was struggling whether to walk or not, he suddenly found that the instep of the middle-aged hunter's left foot seemed to be a little more bulging than the instep of his right foot.
The middle-aged hunter wore a pair of leather boots made of mutated double-headed cowhide, like this kind of boots, which abound in the trading houses of Thunder City, and the price was not expensive, less than a hundred resource points.
Moreover, many people will have some differences between the left and right parts of the body, such as some people have a larger left ear and some people have a longer right leg...... However, Qi Lin just felt that there was something hidden in these boots.
Enduring the disgusting smell of sweat mixed with foot odor on the corpse that had not been bathed for several days, Qi Lin took off the boot on the middle-aged hunter's left foot and pinched it with his hand—sure enough, there was a mezzanine inside the sole of the boot, stuffed with something bulging.
Qi Lin immediately used a dagger to cut open the sandwich of the boots, and a piece of yellow Dowling paper was neatly stacked four times, the edges were already a little cracked, and the black ink on the front also partially penetrated the paper and appeared on the back of the paper.
Obviously, this thing is something from the old days.
Qi Lin cautiously opened the Daolin paper, only to see a complex map drawn on it, and in the center of the map, it seemed to be a small castle-like building.
"Li Family Castle?"
The map depicts the old Xuzhou, and there is only one European-style castle building in the old Xuzhou city, which was built by a warlord surnamed Li in Xuzhou City during the Republic of China as his own family residence, and later became a tourist attraction in Xuzhou with the change of the times.
The mutated creatures that infested the area around this castle were not of a low level, and even the most powerful hunters had only watched from afar and never approached this castle.
"Could it be...... Is this a treasure map? Qi Lin looked at the map again, and a tower north of the Li Family Castle had obviously been depicted with a pen, and a small "downward" arrow was drawn next to it.
And in addition to this treasure map, there is also a gray plastic card the size of a bank card, without any characters or patterns on it.
This card Qi Lin is no stranger, this is a product of the end of the old era, an electronic digital door lock, in many large cities have replaced most of the mechanical locks.
Used to unlock the lock, is this kind of unlock card that stores a unique digital password inside, and the unlock card is also divided into several levels, gray card, also known as the nine-level card, is the highest level except black, the password length is nine to the ninth power, 387420489 hexadecimal digits, and, every 60 seconds, will dynamically change the order of the password arrangement...... It would take hundreds of years to crack the best supercomputer available at that time.
A set of password systems that use gray cards will cost tens of millions of dollars.
As for where the more advanced black cards are used...... Except for the country's nuclear arsenal, Qi Lin really couldn't think of anywhere else.
The ancient castle of the Republic of China, the gray unlock card of level 9...... Qi Lin kind of understood, even an idiot could know how valuable this thing was.
The things in the Li family's ancient castle are likely to have the energy to subvert the entire current wasteland game world......
