Navy pearls, a whole bag of navy pearls!

If placed on Earth, the visual effect is like a whole bag of African blood diamonds, which immediately reminds people of huge wealth.

In this world, gold, silver, platinum, and diamonds are not the top symbols of wealth, but pure gold, mythril, black titanium, fine crystal nuclei, and deep blue pearls.

A gift from the sea, it takes millennia to form, a deep blue pearl with a solid texture comparable to that of a diamond, azure and dark, mysterious and elegant. The jewelry of dark blue pearls has always been the favorite of aristocratic ladies, with a cold feel and deep color, which can be strung into bracelets, necklaces, made into earrings, and large ones can also be used as pendants.

The value of each piece is about 500~1000 gold coins, depending on the size and color of the particles. The whole bag looks like there are at least thirty or more.

Looking down, there are two gold rings tied together with red strings, and a silver ring, the gold ring is carved with an evil dragon, and the silver ring is carved with a giant python. Although it is metal, it sparkles like a diamond. The dragon and snake pair ring, the top wedding ring that symbolizes eternal love, is made of high-purity pure gold and mythril. These two rings alone are worth more than 10,000 gold coins.

Further down is a pile of gold bars scattered across the ground, each with the words "200 grams" written underneath.

Both of them were stunned for a while, as if they didn't expect the income to be so rich.

"Put it away quickly, and don't show your wealth." Chen Xing was the first to come back to his senses, subconsciously looked left and right, and then put away the most valuable dark blue pearl and dragon snake ring, and asked the big cat to put away the gold bars.

After putting things in order, the big cat puts it back on its backpack. Although the bullet has been consumed more than halfway, it weighs more than when it came. For no other reason, the gold is too heavy.

"Where are you going?" The big cat asked, looking nervous. Born at the bottom of Dragonstone Town and running a grocery store at home, he has never seen such a large fortune.

"Go back the way you came." Chen Xing quickly made a decision. As the saying goes, you are not guilty, and you are guilty, and the fewer people you meet on the way back, the better.

The two said they would go, and they didn't stop for half a minute, taking advantage of the fact that it was still dark, and walked in the direction they came.

Located on the edge of the Lethe River, two hours later, the rolling hills come into view. Seeing that it was getting dark, no matter how anxious I was, I couldn't walk at night. Pick the tallest building nearby, climb to the top, and camp to rest.

"Boss, we can recruit a few more people when we go back this time." The big cat said with a little excitement as he ate the ration of chicken stew with mushrooms.

"There's no need to worry about this, let's put our attributes up first." Chen Xing ate macaroni with meat sauce and said without raising his head.

"Ah, I'm also elevated?" The big cat stopped, looking a little stunned. According to the rules of the mercenary world, Chen Xing is the employer, that is, the boss, and after paying the commission, all the income of the team belongs to the boss. Of course, there is an appropriate share, but it depends on the mood of the boss.

Attribute enhancement is a personal matter, and it is rare for a boss to buy potions directly to his subordinates, because this is no different from giving money.

Chen Xing didn't seem to hear the meaning of the big cat's words, rolled up the macaroni with a fork, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it, and said, "If the two of us are not strong enough, we can't guarantee the loyalty of the hired people." The size of the team depends on the number of people we can handle. ”

His words directly pulled the big cat into the inner circle of the team, distinguishing "his own people" from "outsiders". The big cat is not stupid, so he can naturally hear what he means, but he just replied lightly, "My big cat can't say anything else, let's see people's hearts for a long time." ”

Chen Xing knew that the reason why the big cat was not very interested was because he felt that he was buying people's hearts. After all, with so many treasures, anyone will be tempted to snoop. What he is saying now is just to stabilize the scene, and when he arrives at the safety station, he may not fulfill his promise.

Chen Xing understands this kind of thinking very well. In this world, there are few loyal and trustworthy people, and many people who are unkind. Big cats are smart people, and smart people are worried, especially now, the two have known each other for less than half a month, and they can't talk about much trust.

But the biggest difference between people is that some people will change because of money, beauty, fame and fortune, and some people will not. In the last life, the big cat proved his loyalty and glory with his life. In this life, he will lead his former friends to the highest mountain in the world.

He remembered that the big cat said that he hoped to make money in the future and be able to buy a bigger shop and open a small supermarket in Longshi Town. That way they can hire a few workers, and the mother doesn't have to work too hard.

Early the next morning, the two packed up and headed for the mountains. At noon, I climbed the first stone mountain.

Looking high and far away, the mountains are stacked.

"Someone!"

The two of them spotted the small black dots moving on the mountain peaks in the distance as soon as possible, and quickly lay down. And the other party seems to have noticed them and stopped moving.

Chen Xing hesitated for a moment, then took out his telescope and looked over. The two places are thousands of meters apart, and they can't be seen clearly without a telescope. In the mirror, a group of exiles appeared, a dozen or so men, carrying bags and guns, all hiding behind cover.

"Whew......"

After observing for a while, there was a sudden sound of breaking the sky in my ears. Chen Xing turned his head suddenly, and a soil spring exploded half a meter away, spraying dust all over his face. The warhead was shot into the soil, leaving a round hole the size of a bowl.

"There's a sniper, let's go!"

Chen Xing quickly retreated, and after leaving his line of sight, he ran down the mountain.

The opponent has professional snipers who can attack from a distance of 3,000 meters. On the one hand, Chen Xing's night owl can't hit so far, on the other hand, he is not good at ultra-long-distance sniping, and it is difficult to hit accurately beyond a thousand meters. While the danger perception can give him some advantage, he simply can't fight back. That's the biggest difference between an accuracy shooter and a sniper – the difference in extreme shooting distance.

In the clay world, the Sniper is a very special class. Not only do they have to train for a long time, but they also have to undergo eye surgery to make the eyes more accurate, and when fighting, they need to inject a variety of auxiliary drugs such as muscle relaxants and tranquilizers to ensure stability, which is nicknamed "medicine jar" by other troops.

Due to the heavy use of drugs, the sniper is relatively weak and has extremely poor melee combat ability, similar to the longbowmen of the Middle Ages on Earth, and will suffer heavy casualties if they are attacked by surprise.

However, on the battlefield, snipers are very difficult to deal with, and they are an existence that even the powerhouses of the Holy Domain feel headaches. Although the sniper's attack can't do much damage to them, every now and then a cold shot comes in, which is really disgusting.

For example, the current Chen Xing, because the distance is not far enough, can only choose to retreat.

"How to get there?" The big cat followed, asking as he ran.

At the foot of the mountain is an endless wasteland, flat and open. If the other party goes up the mountain, the line of sight will be very far away.

"Go back to Lethe and find another way." Chen Xing said.

The terrain of the city ruins is complex, and the sniper rifle has no advantage.

Half a day later, the two returned to Lethe. Chen Xing didn't choose to hide and ambush the group. Because he is not sure enough, the other party even has snipers, and his strength is definitely not weak. If the two of them are asked to deal with more than a dozen, the odds are too low. And they have property on them, as long as they can return to the safety station, they can improve their strength, and there is no need to fight to the end.

Over the next two days, the two went deep into Lethe, planning to make a big circle and leave the edge of Area 14.

They chose this path because they weren't sure if the other party would chase them, and they weren't sure if there were anyone in the other team's team who was good at tracking. When Chen Xing was in the Thunder Light Regiment in his last life, there was a young mercenary named "Tutu" under his command, who could distinguish the smell of the wind wafting from several kilometers away, and was a scout of their team.

There are also a few good teammates, but by the time it comes time to conquer the Great Demon, he and the big cat are already dead. That's how a mercenary's life is. In the blink of an eye, which former partner left. And no one knows who will be the next to leave.

Most mercenaries will send money home or spend it on enjoyment, and only a few will choose to improve their strength. And these people are often the core members of the team and get some additional benefits.

The Lei Guang Regiment that Chen Xing joined in his previous life was one of the few relatively fair "free regiments". With the squad as a unit, only a small part of the loot obtained only needs to be handed over, which is basically more work and more rewards, and the core members do not have too many privileges and benefits.

And the Beiqiao regiment that Ye Yang Bailiu went to is a typical "autocratic regiment", except for the members of their sister group, the mercenaries at the bottom only get their salaries, all the loot must be handed over, and then they will be given a little commission.

Usually the larger the mercenary group, the more authoritarian it is, and the higher the survival rate. There is an essential difference between the two, joining a small mercenary group is to "fight the world", and joining a large mercenary group is to "earn wages", which meets the business rules that the higher the risk, the greater the rate of return.

On the fourth day of encountering the group, the two began to walk in the direction of Area 14.

Walking in the ruins of Lethe, there are few mutated creatures, only scattered living corpses and ghoul dogs. The real danger is underground, and the two of them are in a state of returning with a full load, so they naturally won't ask for trouble.

Some of the underground spaces have obvious traces of exploration, such as dug vents, iron doors with wide open doors, bullet casings all over the ground, grenade pull rings, rocket tails, etc.

At nine o'clock in the morning, they met three exiles who had formed a team. The number of people on both sides is not far apart, and the package is also swollen, so there is nothing to do. Far away, go your own way.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the two climbed high to have lunch and found a strange place.

From above, there is a circular clearing a few kilometers away. In the middle of the clearing is a red-roofed house topped by a large neon sign. But it's daytime, and the lights aren't on, so you can't see what's on it.

The exterior of the Red House is somewhat similar to equipment for oil storage tanks and generators. There is a large well in front of the house, and behind it is a place that resembles a courtyard with bamboo.

"Isn't it the Arakawa Lodge you said?" Chen Xing asked.

"It's possible." The big cat crouched on the edge of the building, eating compressed biscuits, and then asked, "Would you like to stay for the night?" ”

"What if it's a black shop?" Chen Xing asked rhetorically.

"That's right, let's hurry, go back to the safe place and rest." The big cat sighed. After many days of exhaustion, I am a little tired. Who doesn't want to eat a hot meal, take a shower, and get a good night's sleep.

As the two spoke, a small black dot appeared at the edge of the clearing, moving slowly towards the red house.

Chen Xing was eating peanut elbow rice, and the big cat casually picked up the binoculars and looked at the red house.

"Hey, why is it a woman?"

The big cat made a puzzled sound. In such places, women are rare, and women who walk alone are even rarer. The ratio of men and women in the Black Death Continent is not coordinated, and women just hide in the safety station and do the skin and meat business, it doesn't matter what they look like, as long as they are mothers.
