Chapter 5: Conspiracy
When the three of them heard this, their faces turned ugly, and they looked at each other, and they all saw the injustice and anger in the depths of each other's eyes.
Not being able to join hunting groups, as well as participating in any official hunting events, means that there are only two ways for them to survive.
The first is to hunt privately, but more than 70% of the fruits obtained in this way should be distributed to the hunting union, which is considered a disguised punishment.
Or to find an inconsequential position in the city and earn a low salary, no matter what, "ordinary" people like them, who have no background, no money, no power, no outstanding talents, or are particularly outstanding, can only live in poverty and even precariousness for these three years.
This is forcing people to the road of poverty!
Having said all that, it's already a sure fact, and they're against being useful? To no avail at all! This woman is only a symbolic notice, and she will not pay attention to your so-called objections at all!
Ivy Hospital.
Everyone in the Anyuan hunting group who learned the news had mixed reactions, the head of the group, An Yuan, was silent, the professional household of the animal planer was almost furious, Xiaochun was silent No. 2, and the eyes of the group members were cracked!
"This is deliberate revenge! Maje must have thrown a lot of money at that woman, just to kill us! ”
"That's it! What Raushzi high-level meeting, I think it's just Yu Bing's stinky smashing arbitrarily and blatantly taking bribes! ”
"It's an unfair fact that the high-level leaders of the hunting union have a black heart, as long as anyone can give enough beast spirits and corpse cores, they will favor whichever side, otherwise they will violently hunt the group, which has a very bad reputation and knows all day long that they have fallen into the well and robbed other people's resources, how can they jump for so long!"
……
All the members of the hunting group were very angry and angry, and when it came to emotion, they wanted to recover immediately and beat them violently.
The reason why Fierce Force had such a big conflict with them was that in a hunting activity, they did not obediently hand over their spoils like the usual weak hunting groups that were used to being bullied.
Although they are only a third-rate hunting group, they have the bloodiness and ruthlessness that some second-rate or even first-class hunting groups do not have.
At this point, the fierce force has formed a bond with them. Not only is it aimed at making things difficult for them everywhere, but it also arrogantly snatches their prey! even planted someone to come undercover as an undercover agent, and his heart and eyes are as small as the eye of a needle! The dignified one-meter-eight rough man behaves like a villain all day long! Incomprehensible!
"Alas! I'm mainly worried about the three of you, the hunting group will be disbanded when it is disbanded, and we people can still hunt as usual, but you will have a hard time in the future......" An Yuan said worriedly with a resolute face.
"Yes, if it weren't for you, we would have been the ashes of the horned eagle by now!" The beast spirit brother sincerely felt sorry for the three young people.
"So be it...... In the future, we will give you some of the beast spirits and corpse cores we have hunted! Without your help, we wouldn't be able to get to where we are today! What do you think? A lady with a broken arm suggested.
"Okay, I think it works!"
"I'm fine!"
"I agree!"
……
Koharu lifted a freckled face, lifted his glasses, looked at the three of them and said seriously, "I agree too." ”
The three of them were a little moved in their hearts, and Xiao Shi, who didn't regard them as real partners at all from the beginning, also had a moment of emotional ups and downs.
Xia Xi looked at the two partners, and after discussing with them in a whisper, she smiled slightly, and expressed her rejection to everyone: "We understand everyone's kindness, it is not easy for anyone under the end of the world, everyone knows the hardship, and none of us owe anyone!" It's normal for us to help each other! ”
"Besides, we have both hands and abilities, so we won't starve to death easily, and our vitality is very tenacious! Please rest assured! ”
After hearing this, An Yuan suddenly felt a little less guilty, his eyes bent, and he smiled: "Yes, it's your best luck!" Especially you, Xia Xi, I sometimes really wonder if God has given you all the good luck! What envy, jealousy, and hatred! ”
"Hahaha!"
……
Ending the heavy topic, the optimistic crowd quickly entered a more relaxed joke.
Evening.
The three of them returned to a rented house not far from the hospital, and they were not only partners on weekdays, but also roommates in private.
Xia Xi sat on the chair, looked at the silent faces of the other two partners, and said his thoughts straight to the point: "Now we are no longer partners, thank you for the past few months, through this matter, I have also completely figured it out, I want to live seriously in this world!" Until you find a way back home! ”
Yes, she has already figured it out, since she can't die no matter how she dies, what else does she have to worry about in this world full of dangers and zombies?
If she can come here, she will naturally have a way to go back, and this method is the mysterious voice.
She remembered that she seemed to need to complete a task when she came here, but what was it, the voice didn't say it explicitly, only said let her realize it herself?
……
Well, in short, the current plan can only be carried out, one step at a time.
"Are you ......" Mu Ling hesitated to speak, but he was embarrassed to ask, he was curious about Xia Xi's life experience for the first time, he often felt that Xia Xi was not like an ordinary normal person in terms of thinking and behavior, and the faint sorrow in her eyes from time to time also fully showed that this girl had a story!
Xiao Shi's eyebrows furrowed quickly, staring at Xia Xi, and his tone was sarcastic: "Heh! Do you still have the face to mention your hometown? Do you deserve it? Do you think you can go back? ”
If it was still before Xia Xi made up her mind, Xiao Shi would have liked her attitude, but now that she has made her goal clear, she feels a little confused and weird.
"Uh..."Xia Xi pondered his words and asked cautiously, "Xiao Shi, I've wanted to ask you for a long time, we used to ...... Have you ever seen it? You've treated me with ... Uh, why isn't it so friendly? ”
Of course, she wouldn't think that the two of them were talking about the same concept of hometown! Although this body is the same as her shell on Earth, the memories of this body are blank! I only know that I am a member of the Anyuan hunting group and have the same name as the earth.
Besides, heaven and earth can be learned, before she was so focused on being a death tyrant that she didn't want to know more about this issue at all, and she didn't care about it at that time, she was only worried that Xiao Shi wouldn't want her to die on a whim one day!
“…… I think you're really amnesiac...... No wonder he didn't say a word and chose me as his partner......" Xiao Shi muttered and stopped talking.
Mu Ling glanced at the two people who had quieted down, his eyes sparkled, and then, he broke the silence and said: "Now, we are grasshoppers on the same rope, if we are just alone, survival will naturally not be a problem, but we will fall into embarrassing poverty, such a life must not be wanted by everyone." ”
Xia Xi stared at Mu Ling with interest, and he didn't expect that this man who had always been silent would say such things: "So, you mean, we should unite and hunt in groups, right?" ”
Mu Ling nodded.
"I'm fine." Xia Xi readily agreed.
Ordinary solo hunting is very inefficient and dangerous, so hunters of the general profession will choose to join a group or team.
Except for some particularly powerful hunters, joining a group and teaming up is a burden for them, and they have to give away some of the loot, so the really powerful big guys who ignore everything are disdainful and unnecessary to join these organizations.
Hunting strange beasts and zombies is the best way to make money, and most of the people who have awakened their abilities have become professional hunters, and only a few stay in the city to play a special role.
Like mopping the floor in the hospital, doing chores in the food and material base, helping the power engineer, etc., these daily and tedious jobs are all done by ordinary people, with the lowest pay, and living the most difficult life.
"I'm joining too."
It's a bit surprising that Xiao Shi, who has always hated her, is still willing to team up with her, but think about it, since being restricted by the Yubing manager, it is not easy to find a partner.
The most crucial point is that the number of hunters for private hunting is smaller. Usually this kind of people have made big mistakes, but the hunting union is reluctant to waste their ability resources and let them do some ordinary people's work, so as to adopt a "tolerant" policy of maximizing profits, of course, this profit party must be the hunting union.
Mu Ling nodded with satisfaction, but the corners of his mouth hooked up a cold arc: "Regarding our murder, I have a plan......
When the two of them heard this, a chill rose in their hearts, and they all looked at him as if they had only known Mu Ling on the first day.
Xia Xi's eyes flickered, but he didn't expect this Mu Ling to be a hidden belly black.
"This plan is feasible, but if our identities are revealed...... Xiao Shi weighed the pros and cons and questioned.
"So, you really want to stay here for the rest of your life?" Mu Ling's voice was unwavering, but there was a hint of imperceptible sneer when he listened closely, and he continued, "The hunting union and the city management organization have become increasingly corrupt, and the leaders are drunk and obsessed, all relying on the stubborn defense of some of the hot-blooded city guards and the continuous input of resources from us professional hunters. ”
"City C looks solid on the surface, and the city is peaceful inside, but in fact, there has long been an undercurrent, and social contradictions are becoming increasingly intensified. Do you think such a leading institution and such an urban structure can really withstand the tide of corpses and beasts two months later? ”
"Even if you get lucky this time, what about next time?"
After speaking, Mu Ling's sarcasm was already clearly on his lips.
Xia Xi smiled slightly and looked at Mu Ling: "I coincide with your thoughts, and I am ready to plan for this, I can see that you should have been preparing for it a long time ago, right?" ”
Mu Ling smiled but said nothing.
Xiao Shi's face was grim. It was only now that Mu Ling had truly taken off his indifferent mask, revealing his sharp and terrifying fangs.
