At this point, Tran was so drunk that Rayson pulled him by the back collar with one hand and dragged him out of the tavern. The people in the tavern didn't seem to be surprised by such things, and no one particularly cared.

Rayson and Ashley leave the tavern with Tran and head into a secluded alley not far away. The man who had just slipped out of the tavern spotted them as well, and took out the radio again.

"Hurry up! If you let him run, you won't want to have another chance to join the guild! ”

The two Raysons dragged the tall Tran across the street and threw him in the alley. Rayson took a large gulp of water and sprayed it directly in Tran's face.

With a burst of cold water, the drunken Tran barely opened his eyelids, and first saw Rayson in front of him: "You...... Who are you? ”

"Tran! Wake up! I have something to ask you! ”

Ashley on the side didn't have so much patience, squatted down and grabbed Tronde's collar and shook it desperately. Tran, who hadn't woken up from the wine, only felt that his stomach was tumbling and he almost didn't vomit.

Rubbing his eyes, Ashley in front of him was also wearing a mask, but Tran didn't recognize it: "Who?" ”

Ashley pulled down her mask. Trem was a little surprised: "Ashley? When did you get back? ”

Tran and Uncle Bai are both Anderley's neighbors, and naturally they know that Anderley left Sand City a year ago.

Although they have been neighbors for many years, they can't say that they have a good relationship. In Anderley's impression, Tran has been this kind of mess for many years, hanging out in brothels or taverns when he has money, working as a laborer for a day or two when he has no money, and continuing to squander when he earns money, and so on.

And the place where he works most often is in Hassan's mines. Almost every morning, Hassan's men would shout at fixed locations in the city to recruit a day's worth of mine labor. Of course, the remuneration is extremely low, often only one or two cans.

Even so, Tran often preferred to trade the can for wine with his stomach next to him, or save a few more and then go to a brothel for a night of absurdity. So Ashley has always been reluctant to have too much contact with him.

But now that the situation is compelling, if you want to determine the location of Anderley's father, it is best to inquire from Tran, who has seen him recently. Because Hassan has more than one mine, the laborers he recruits in the city every day will also be pulled by trucks to work in different mines, which is not fixed.

"Don't talk about this! Uncle Bai said You recently met my dad in the mine, which mine? Tell me quickly! ”

Ashley shook Tran impatiently, urging him to answer. Tran shook his head, and after regaining some consciousness, he didn't hide it: "In ...... To the west of Sand Castle is the largest mine. ”

After speaking, Tran rubbed his eyes again, full of wine: "You...... Already know that he was taken by Maha? ”

Ashley nodded: "Uncle Bai told me!" How is he doing now? ”

Tran pouted: "It seems that he has suffered a lot, he is much thinner than before, he is still handcuffed and shackled, there are two people watching him all the time, and sometimes he will whip him, I don't dare to greet him." In the evening, he was taken away by the two men again. ”

Ashley clenched her fists and her face was full of anger: "Maha, this bastard! How dare you do this to my dad! When I rescue my dad, I'll definitely settle accounts with him! ”

After a wine hiccups, Tran shook his head: "Just if you want to save him?" Stop dreaming! ”

"I've been to every mine not just to the west, and Hassan values these mines more than his life! During the day, when we started work, there would be a bunch of his men as overseers, and those people would have guns! And each mine also has a foreman who wears an iron shell; I heard that even if the work stops at night, Hassan will still leave the foreman and some people to keep vigil, and this is the case in every mine! ”

Rayson on the side also frowned. Iron shell? It should be talking about power armor, it seems that this Hassan is not simple, he even has power armor, and it seems that there is more than one.

Tran pondered for a moment, then said, "I saw your father only recently in the mines to the west, and I thought he was dead. I think he might be imprisoned by Maha somewhere else, not in the mines at all, and if you really want to save him, the best way is ...... Go find Maha. ”

"Impossible!" Ashley had already heard the meaning of Tran's words: "I won't let Maha succeed if I die!" ”

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with Maha~" Tran laughed casually: "Maha's family has a big business, and in this area, it will be windy and rainy, and you will definitely eat and drink spicy food with him, and you won't be able to suffer a loss~"

Hearing this, Ashley's face suddenly darkened, and she stopped speaking, and looked at Tran coldly.

But Tran, who had not yet fully woken up, did not notice Anderley's face, but instead paid attention to Rayson next to her.

"Yo~ Ashley, no wonder you don't want to go with Maha?" Tran looked Rayson up and down, still as frivolous as just now: "So you've already found one?" Where did this come from? ”

Ashley was stunned for a moment, her pretty face turned red, and she waved her hand again and again: "He's not ......"

Before he finished speaking, Rayson caught movement not far away, and jerked Ashley back, completely blocking her behind him, and turned to face the alleyway.

Several silver rays of light struck quickly from outside the alley with the sound of breaking wind, and Rayson grabbed the hem of his trench coat and waved it quickly, sweeping it away.

But one of the silver lights, swept away by Rayson's windbreaker, hit the wall of the alley, and after a rebound sparked, it flew towards Tran, who was still sitting drunk.

There was no screaming, no wailing, Tran just snorted, and slowly fell to the ground and died on the spot. He has a dart stuck in his temple, like the one used by ninjas in the movies, with a ring with four protruding sharps; One of the sharps was completely submerged in the flesh, and the rest still reflected a dangerous silver glow.

"Tran!"

Seeing Tran suddenly die in front of her, Anderley was shocked.

At the mouth of the alley stood two people, one tall and one short; Rayson vaguely remembered that the short man seemed to have seen it in the tavern just now, and then he didn't know where he went; As for the tall man, dressed in black clothes and black pants, with a black mask on his face, a katana behind his back, and a wakicha pinned to his waist, he was dressed like a ninja.

The short man was the one who had snuck out of the tavern earlier, and the tall man was the one he had called over the radio.

"It's up to you." The short man touched the tall ninja next to him with his elbow: "Get him, if you can earn this money, you will have to benefit." Remember, live! ”

"You're Maha's people?" Rayson's face was solemn, and he subconsciously thought that the other party was Maha's subordinate. But at the same time, he also wondered, he and Ashley had only been back for a long time, how could Maha get the news so quickly?

"What Maha?" Unexpectedly, the short man did tilt his head and look confused, as if he didn't know what Rayson was talking about.

And the tall ninja didn't have any nonsense, and rushed directly towards Rayson, and at the same time, several silver lights were thrown out of both hands, all of which were darts like the one just now.

Rayson hurriedly escorted Ashley back, and at the same time flicked his trench coat and swept the darts away. But the ninja soon threw more darts at the wall, and the darts' attack lines suddenly became unpredictable.

The trench coat flicked wildly, and a corner was cut off, barely sweeping most of the darts away, but two of them bounced off the wall and rounded Rayson towards Ashley.

Seeing two silver rays approaching, Ashley was startled and instinctively closed her eyes in fear.

"Whew!"

"Poof!"

After waiting for a while, Ashley didn't feel hurt, and when she opened her eyes, she found that Rayson had turned to face her, and the dart on his left was caught between his two fingers.

On the right, it was Rayson who raised his arm and blocked it directly with his arm. The corner of the dart had already been inserted into the flesh of his arm, and blood was slowly dripping.

"Uncle!"

"It's okay, little thing." Rayson touched Ashley's head and whispered softly, then pulled out the dart inserted into his arm and turned back.

The ninja had just gotten up from the ground. He just threw the dart and rushed straight over, trying to pull out the katana behind his back and attack Raisen. But Rayson turned to protect Anderley and threw a kick that hit him in the stomach and kicked him out again.

Seeing the ninja being kicked down, the short man was also a little startled, and hid outside the alley, only poking out half of his head to observe the situation in the alley.

Annoyed, the ninja pulls out his katana behind his back and attacks Raisen again. The speed of his attack was fast, but his strength was not strong, and the swing of the katana was easily dodged by Rayson, and he was grabbed by Rayson several times, almost letting the katana get out of his hand.

Unable to hold Rayson with a knife, the ninja pulled out the wakicha around his waist and attacked Raysen with two knives.

But this still didn't give him the upper hand, while protecting Ashley, Rayson was still able to easily resist the ninja's attack, and every time the two knives attacked, Rayson's sharp eyes could catch the opponent's attack angle, and accurately punched or palmed the ninja's arm to stop the opponent's attack.

And, because he holds a knife in both hands, the ninja's attack becomes wide open, and the alley is not wide enough for it to be fully used; From time to time, the knife would slash at the walls on both sides of the alley, and it would be impossible to go any further, and it would take a lot of effort to pull it out. This is also the reason why Rayson chose to fight the enemy empty-handed, instead of using a long knife.

Rayson soon noticed that something was wrong, the ninja had several chances to get close to Ashley behind him, but he didn't do it, he only focused on attacking himself, as if he was coming at him. Maybe...... He's not Maha's man?

"Stand back, be careful of hurting you." Rayson admonished Ashley and took the initiative to meet the ninja.

After dodging a few more attacks, Raison found the flaw and threw a punch right in the ninja's chest.

The ninja was repulsed, clutching his chest and crouching on the ground panting; Rayson frowned, and when his fist hit, there was a soft and ambiguous touch, this ninja ...... Is it a woman?

"Can you do it?" The short man saw that the ninja had suffered two losses in a row, and his face was even more worried. But it was okay that he didn't say it, and as soon as he said this, the ninja was even more annoyed, and immediately got up and attacked Raisen again.

Rayson didn't bother to waste time here, so he looked in the direction of the ninja's sword, and made a decisive move, grabbing her right wrist holding the katana.

With a slight twist, the ninja's wrist reversed, and the tip of the katana in his hand was facing the wall next to him, and Raisen's other hand followed closely at the end of the handle of the katana, and the katana was instantly inserted into the wall, and it was difficult to pull it out.

The ninja didn't give up yet, and grabbed the wakicha with his other hand and raised it to stab Rasen. Raison shook his hand and hit the ninja's left wrist, the ninja was in pain, and the threat came out of his hand, completely disarmed by Raisen.

Without giving her another chance, Rayson hit her short knife with his right hand, and then directly clasped the ninja's side face, slamming into the wall next to him, making a muffled 'bang'.

After receiving this blow, the ninja kept his face against the wall, and slipped to the ground softly, not getting up again, and I don't know if he fainted or died.

Of course, Rayson didn't care, he was already eyeing the short man who was sneaking around the alleyway.

The short man felt Rayson's gaze, shook his whole body, and immediately turned around and ran away. Rayson also rushed out after him, and the short man didn't run two steps, and was immediately caught by Rayson again.

"Help! Help me! ”

The short man was caught by Rayson and dragged back down the alley. There were a few pedestrians passing by on the road, but when they saw this posture, none of them dared to lend a hand, but instead they all tightened their necks and hurried away. Third Street belongs to the Three Regardless Zone, where fights and deaths are common, and no one will provoke an unknown person for the sake of a stranger.

"Big brother! Big brother, I was wrong! You let me go! The short man kept begging for mercy, but was still dragged back into the alley by Rayson and thrown next to Tran's body.

"Tell me honestly! Who are you? What do you want to do? Rayson said coldly.

"I ...... I...... Big brother, let me go! I promise I'll never bother you again! ”

Seeing the dwarf looking at him left and right, Rayson's eyes narrowed slightly, and he slammed a punch into his face without warning.

The dwarf suddenly broke blood from his mouth and nose, and covered his face and wailed. Rayson tugged at the short man's collar and said in a cold voice, "I don't have much patience, you'd better say something I want to hear." ”

As he spoke, Rayson raised his fist again, threatening to punch the dwarf in the face. The dwarf hurriedly begged for mercy: "Big, big brother! Stop it! I say! I'll say everything! ”

"I ...... I'm from the Hunters' Guild. The dwarf shrunk his neck and said tremblingly, "Big brother! It was me who was wrong! It's because I have eyes and don't know Tarzan! I promise I'll never bother you again, so you'll spare me, right? ”

"The Hunters' Guild?" Rayson was puzzled, he had thought that the dwarf was Maha's subordinate who had come to capture Ashley. But listening to the tone of the dwarf, he seemed to be coming for himself.

"Be clear!"

Under Rayson's questioning, the dwarf had to explain in detail. The Hunter Guild is an organization that specializes in issuing bounty tasks, and some people with capital will issue tasks through this organization when needed; or killing people and goods, or protecting escorts, there are various forms, and the rewards are different according to the difficulty; Of course, the guild itself takes a portion of the payout.

Since it is a business that does things for people, there are naturally many outlaws under the Hunter Guild, and there are many second-tier dealers who hire people and take a cut of the task after receiving the task, and the dwarf belongs to this category.

It's just that he now regrets that he died to provoke Rayson, and he also regrets that he called him here when he didn't know the strength of the tall ninja. That guy was met when he was drinking recently, when the dwarf was drunk and bragged, claiming that he was an important person in the guild, but after the other party heard it, he took the initiative to find him, insisted on joining the guild, and begged the dwarf to give him a chance to perform, and there was no other available person under the dwarf, so he thought of him.

Rayson frowned after hearing this, he hadn't heard of this hunter guild before, who would issue a bounty on himself?

"How did you get my bounty?"

The dwarf was stunned for a moment, crying with a sad face: "Big, big brother, I told you everything you want to know, please let me go, that's the guy I eat......"

Rayson sensed something, and said coldly: "You'd better hand it over quickly, while my patience hasn't run out......"

The dwarf looked at Rayson's increasingly gloomy gaze, and his mind suddenly changed, and he had to take out his radio and hand it over.

The radio not only had a screen, but also a camera behind it, and Rayson held it, only thinking that it was almost the same as a smartphone in the old century, and when he turned it on, a picture of himself immediately appeared on the screen.

The resolution of the screen is not high, but from the photos shown on it, Rayson can still see his appearance clearly, and after observing it for a while, he vaguely feels that he was taken in the holy place of the Saints' Church.

There is also a line under the photo: Capture this person and leave him alive, and reward him for 800 tablets of radioactive medicine; After the task is completed, take a photo for feedback, and the guild will have follow-up contact.

Rayson clicked twice more casually, and saw that the pay for other tasks was not as high as his own. Rayson secretly scolded himself, it seems that he is quite valuable, eight hundred pills of radiation medicine, this person is really bloody.

"Who posted this quest?"

The dwarf shook his head: "I don't know, we can only see the content of the mission." This thing can't be contacted by others, unless the task is completed, then there will be people above who take the initiative to find us and arrange the follow-up handover. It's all a one-line connection. Usually, this thing can only receive the published task and see the task content. If you're going to ask me who I'm posting the task, I really don't know! Only the higher-ups within the guild could know about this. I'm just a low-level errand runner, just a mess of food. ”

Rayson thought for a moment and asked, "Where is your stronghold?" ”

Since the dwarfs have radios, there must be their base stations nearby, or even strongholds; If necessary, Rayson may take the initiative to prevent future troubles.

But the dwarf shook his head again: "Big brother, I'...... I've just been to Sand City recently, and I don't know if there's a guild here. I'm here to see if there's anyone who can come in handy. But you also see it...... The one I just looked for...... It's been dealt with by you. I really won't trouble you again, please let me go......"

Rayson was disappointed, and his eyes became more and more gloomy.

"Are you the only one who accepted the task?"

"It's not." The dwarf shook his head: "The tasks that can be seen on that radio are all done by no one yet, and anyone can do them." Include...... That ...... of yours."

Hearing this, Rayson's face suddenly became solemn: "What do you mean...... And a lot of people with this stuff? Or come against me? ”

“…… This one...... Theoretically...... That's right. ”

The dwarf hurriedly explained, "It's not for me to decide, it's for the guild to always be like this. Basically, all tasks are posted publicly and can be seen by everyone. Whoever can complete it first will get the full reward for that task, and the guild will take the task down......"

"So specifically...... How many people can see it? ”

The dwarf thought for a moment before he hesitated, "There are no thousand...... There are also hundreds, right? ”
