Chapter 271: Seeing and Hearing
Who is the best in the current base cities, except for those city lords who live freely by exploiting the low-level laborers?
I guess many people will answer that it is a hunter.
That's right, the hunter profession can be said to be a new class born in various base cities after the outbreak of the disaster.
And this profession is different from the hunters who hunted wild animals in the past, and it is a group similar to the bounty hunters of the past, generally either excellent skills or outlaws.
And these people wandered around the various base cities alone or in groups, and even ventured into the cities that were overrun by zombies.
The way they make money is all kinds of food and all kinds of civilization supplies, such as cigarettes, alcohol, clothes, etc., and of course, there will be people who go to those old industrial parks to find machinery and equipment at the request of those city lords and organizations.
In short, they are just a bunch of guys who take on any job for money, and they can kill people as thugs.
Therefore, people in this industry are precarious and may lose their lives at any time, but because of their super high incomes, people who are unwilling to engage in cheap labor in the city have gone to the sea in the face of great temptation.
It's just that this industry doesn't come in if you want to, there are no manpower, no weapons, and even no money to pay, and it will only become fat in the eyes of others.
Yi Xuan met the Song family master outside at the beginning, and he was a habitual offender who robbed other hunters, and with his power in the city, as long as the hunters he fancied would not end well.
He also saw a lot of ordinary hunters, in fact, this was also the reason why Yi Xuan and his party were too well equipped and there were not many people at that time, so they were looked down upon.
However, if you want to become a hunter, in addition to being confident and very good, you have to find an organization to join, and to join the organization, you have to go to the hunter inn in each city to find it.
Since the emergence of the hunter industry, not long after, especially after the recovery of the Internet, a lot of hunter inns have spontaneously emerged in the major base cities.
In addition to providing hunter accommodation and meals, it also provides a variety of team recruitment quests, which is in the form of a club.
In just over a year, it took only a few months for this inn to go from appearance to scale, as well as a hunter center.
Yi Xuan couldn't say whether it was a coincidence or a force behind it, but if he wanted to get the latest information after coming to the base, this was the best choice.
And the accommodation and food here are also second to none in the base, after all, the hunters who lick the blood at the knife edge are all living a life of drinking this morning and sin this morning, and all kinds of enjoyment are also the best without lack of money.
After Yi Xuan walked into the inn with four wolf warrior team members, dressed as ordinary hunters, he immediately felt like he had entered a farmer's market, and the noisy sound resounded throughout the hall.
The whole hotel hall is much larger than the hall of those star-rated hotels in the past, especially for business, the scale here is like the office hall of those administrative agencies in the past, many people gather here or chat in the bar and café next to it, or gather at the front desk to inquire about tasks.
Of course, after Yi Xuan and the others entered, they still felt several vigilant eyes looking over, obviously this place was not as casual as it seemed, and there were obviously specific people maintaining law and order.
Of course, the people here are all masters of martial arts in various bases, and ordinary people don't dare to come here to make trouble, so after seeing the ordinary hunter attire of Yi Xuan and his party of 5 people, those few eyes also converged.
The Huguang base is too big, with a population of more than 100 million, and there are millions of hunters, who will recognize all of them?
If it weren't for Yi Xuan's perception ability that surpassed that of ordinary people many times, this kind of surveillance line of sight hidden in the crowd would not have been discovered, which shows that there are still many skilled people hidden here.
Yi Xuan walked to an empty front desk with the Wolf Warriors, looked at the task information scrolling on the LCD screen above, and looked at it carefully.
This information can be described as strange and varied, and there are all kinds of tasks, but these tasks are also divided into levels, and the rewards for different levels of tasks are also different.
Of course, the higher the level, the better the reward, in addition to precious metals such as gold, there are also many rewards for weapons and food, and there are even rewards for women, especially indicating that it is still a certain star, Yi Xuan was stunned for a while.
I didn't expect the hunter missions in the base group to be so exaggerated now.
Although these bases have not developed urban construction and technology, they still know how to mobilize people's enthusiasm.
With such a high reward, those tasks that seem boring and seemingly difficult to complete will eventually be completed, and in this way, each base city will continue to develop.
Of course, Yi Xuan is not envious of this model, after all, except for a few of these tasks that have obvious political significance, most of the tasks are not successful, and they cannot form a joint force in the overall development, and in the long run, at least at the level of science and technology, the gap between these base cities and the city of the ark will only get bigger and bigger.
This is just like the past era of peace, when the country that was entangled in the people, the master, the people, and the rights every day, after its energy was scattered, its development was very slow, and it was quickly caught up and surpassed by the socialist countries that worked together from top to bottom.
It's not that those things are bad, it's just that people don't know how to make trade-offs, they want everything, and naturally they don't get anything in the end.
When people live in abundance without the danger of external hostile countries, they will have more demands on rights and freedoms.
However, the development and progress of society under the combined force will inevitably be faster than those societies that are entangled in internal contradictions every day.
However, this is not absolute, and the Ark City will still have to learn from these methods in the future, after all, society is too repressive and people's rights will eventually go wrong when there is no external pressure.
Of course, these are all things that will only be done in the future when the Ark City is invincible even if it is invincible in the world, otherwise it will inevitably be taken advantage of by other powerful forces and finally fall before the peak.
After roughly inquiring about the mission information for a while, Yi Xuan walked to an empty front desk, ready to take two or three tasks, otherwise it would be too suspicious for the hunters who came here and didn't take the mission.
The front desk of the mission was a feminine girl wearing a skirt similar to that of a flight attendant, and when she saw the tall and handsome Yi Xuan walking forward, a professional smile from the heart immediately jumped on her face.
"Hello, do you need anything?" It was obviously a specially trained soft voice that made Yi Xuan think of the customer service lady in the past peaceful era.
It seems that for more than a year under the disaster of zombies, human society has still preserved a lot of past habits, that is, this kind of service Miss Miss Miss is similar to the bank office hall in the past, and it is more beautiful.
In fact, it is also inevitable, a girl like this kind of looks must have her back to the tree if she wants to survive in today's troubled times, otherwise others will become the playthings of the strong.
After Yi Xuan reported the two tasks he had adjusted, he saw this service lady who smiled very sweetly and inquired on the touch monitor, and soon her face changed.
Some disbelieving looked at the young man in front of him and asked, "Excuse me, sir, did you choose these two A-level missions?" Are you sure? ”
"I'm sure!" Yi Xuan replied with some strangeness, is there any problem with these two tasks? I didn't believe it.
In fact, this is also Yi Xuan's wronged beauty, the reason why she asked this is because these two tasks are A-level, according to the consensus of each base group.
Among the five levels of missions, S, A, B, C, and D, A-level missions belong to the second level of tasks, which can only be completed by large or super-large hunter teams.
In particular, some tasks, such as entering the past city to collect supplies, are not something that ordinary teams dare to take, and they are generally not the private armies of the super forces of each base or those famous super hunter teams.
And when Yi Xuan obtained the identity of a hunter for him through Yu'er on the Internet, he and the four wolf warriors belonged to the lowest hunter team, that is, the D-level hunter group corresponding to the difficulty of the five major tasks.
Especially after the service lady saw that the number of members in their team, including the head Yi Xuan, there were only 5 people, of course, she looked at Yi Xuan in surprise.
You must know that these tasks cannot be taken on the next task if they are not completed, and if you give up, you will have to pay liquidated damages for the difficulty of the corresponding task, so under normal circumstances, few teams will take the tasks that they can't complete, otherwise the task will not be completed in addition to paying liquidated damages, and it will be a dead end if you can't continue to take the task.
That's why a guy like Yi Xuan, who takes on tasks at will in order to cover up, so after hearing the question of Miss Service, Miss Miss, he answered quite affirmatively.
looked at Yi Xuan again, and saw his heroic and resolute face, he still complained in disbelief: "It's a pity!" ”
Yi Xuan didn't mean that Yu'er couldn't see other people's hearts, so he didn't expect that the service lady on the other side, who was looking up at him frequently, had already sentenced himself to death in his heart.
Just when Yi Xuan was still stinky and thought that this service lady Miss Miss had taken a fancy to him, the formalities were finally completed, and he took a receipt and signed his name on the touch screen.
"Sir, have you really thought it through?" Miss Service Miss obviously hasn't given up on Yi Xuan yet, and asked again: "You can give up for free within two hours after receiving the task." ”
"Why give up? Odd! Yi Xuan looked at this service lady with some strange looks and turned to leave.
Leaving the front desk, Yi Xuan went to the counter of the Hunter Hotel to check in, and the lavishly Yi Xuan directly took out a gold bar of one or two weights to pay for 5 people for nearly a month.
Even in a high-consumption place like the Hunter Hotel, it is relatively rare for Yi Xuan to take out so much gold at once, which naturally attracted the attention of some well-intentioned people.
