Section 22: Recruitment
"Wine, meat, women!" The Black Pig King roared loudly in the empty bar, and the bar owner was quickly woken up, hurriedly put on a coat and rushed down. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"It's so early for this guest." The boss greeted sleepily.
"Smack!" After seeing the boss, the Black Pig King didn't say a word, and directly auctioned out two indulgence coins, and then shouted, "Go get something to eat!" ”
"...... right away," the boss smiled and put away the money and went to the kitchen to prepare food. It didn't take long for the boss to bring up the beef and bread, as well as a large glass of ale.
"Woman." The Black Pig King ate and auctioned out two more indulgence coins.
"Okay......" the boss nodded and said. A few minutes later, he called three sleepy-eyed bar girls downstairs.
Facing three young girls in pajamas, with good looks, shiny skin, and bumpy figures, the Black Pig King shook his head, frowned, and said, "No, change the batch." ”
The proprietor was amazed, the three of them were the prettiest of his bar. He saw that the big black fat man made a generous move, so he called the three of them down at the same time.
"Hmph~", "Cut~", "Phew~" The three girls all expressed their disdain for the Black Pig King, and then twisted their butts and went upstairs to make up for sleep.
After a while, the boss called the three bar girls down, and the black pig king only glanced at it, and commented: "It's too thin, change a batch." Then, the boss called a few more groups of girls down, but the black pig king was still not satisfied. In the end, the boss really had no one to call, so he had to call down the three fat girls who were eating here. As a result, the three fat girls came over, and the black fat eyes were straight, "Dangchang!" I didn't even grasp the fork steadily. Once again, the bar owner saw what it means to "have their own good turnips".
A few minutes later, the black pig king finished eating, wiped his mouth, and went up to the second floor with the three fat girls in his arms, and opened a room to fight.
Listening to the heavy wheezing sound next door, Iron Slag and Hagrid glanced at each other, touched their foreheads at the same time, then closed the doors and windows and went downstairs. After breakfast, Hagrid asked the bar owner for a small blackboard, wrote the recruitment information in chalk, and hung it in the door of the bar.
"Are the people here reliable?" Iron Slag asked in a low voice. The bad reputation of the Bugger is not unfounded, and being an Bugger naturally understands the Bug's flaws.
"Better than the north." Hagrid replied, then explained in detail.
Although it is located in the middle of a high-radiation zone, it is a typical gathering place for criminals, but the relationship between insects is less tense than in the sewage river basin.
There are three reasons for this: first, the insects who can come here are not simple, at least they have the combat power above the silver intermediate level, otherwise they would have died halfway through. Under normal circumstances, people are reluctant to find someone of comparable strength, because this will increase the risk of failure.
Second, a person with high combat power usually has multiple Insect abilities, which means that plundering his abilities will be extremely risky. Because absorbing multiple mutant gene fragments at one time will not only increase the probability of the gene chain being disordered, but also be forced to absorb abilities that are not suitable for them, so the insect transformers will generally find targets with a single ability.
Third, epic and legendary abilities that have the "inheritance" attribute, which can improve the stability of the gene chain and cover other insect abilities, are usually highly concealed and not easy to detect.
As he spoke, a strong man in his forties walked into the bar and sat down at the table. However, he didn't come to apply, but a friend that Hagrid brought with him from Wind Sand Castle, and he made an appointment yesterday.
"Hank, this is my brother's iron slag." Hagrid explained.
"Hello, brother." Hank greeted the iron slag.
"Hmm." Iron Slag nodded. Hagrid told him last night that Hank was a hybrid evolutionary of tradition and insectism, but due to years of smoking Jack, his muscles were a little atrophied, and he looked older than his actual age.
"You stay here and guard the supplies." With that, Hagrid threw the key to the upstairs room to Hank. The latter took the key and went up to the second floor without saying anything.
After a few moments, a strong man in a second-generation psionic power armor pushed the door and walked in. He was also a friend of Hagrid's, named Donde, a fifth-order spirit worm envoy who also smoked Jack. After introducing each other, Tang De took the initiative to shake hands with the iron slag, and then sat aside without saying a word.
Then, until the bar officially opened, no one came in, and it seemed that it was difficult to recruit hunters at this time of year.
By 11 a.m., the waiters were returning to work at the bar. Lilith saw the recruitment at the door and went to the table and asked to join. After she went back last night, she thought a lot about it, and decided to try a way to make money other than stealing, after all, it is not a way to keep stealing, and there will always be a time to miss.
"Little friend, the depths of the cemetery are dangerous and not for you." Hagrid simply refused.
"You've seen my abilities, and I can be a scout for the team." Lilith said.
"I think you should understand that a lot of creatures don't need eyes." Hagrid reminded.
"Except last night, I never missed...... Lilith sighed and said, "Bad luck, I ran into two monsters, this is also something that can't be helped~"
"We need warriors, we don't need sentinels." Hagrid spread his hands and said.
"You always need someone to keep a vigil~" Lilith said. Through last night's incident, she felt that these two people had good character. If it were someone else, I am afraid that she would not be let go easily, and a ravage would definitely be indispensable.
"Let you keep a vigil?" Iron Slag, who had not spoken, suddenly turned his head and looked at Lilith and asked.
"Yes~" "Then we have to send someone to spy on you, how tired it is." "I...... I'm not going to beat you up. "Give me a reason to believe you?"
Lilith thought for a while, crossed her waist and said, "Because I look cute~"
"Goodbye." Iron slag said lightly.
"You've made me unemployed, so I should be given a new job." Lilith said.
"Hmm......" Iron Slag muttered, turning his head to look at Hagrid, who immediately picked up and said, "We don't need women in our team. ”
After being rejected, Lilith hung her head in disappointment, but did not leave immediately. I saw that she hesitated for a while, suddenly raised her head, and hesitated: "Actually, ......" She looked a little twisted, and she didn't say the second half of the sentence for a long time, as if she was at war with heaven and man in her heart, and made a major choice.
Finally, she gritted her teeth and said with determination: "Actually, I am a man. ”
"What!"
In an instant, Hagrid's whole body was petrified, and even the iron slag that was drinking tea almost spewed out a mouthful of water.
"I'm a man, just like you." Lilith said calmly.
"This ......," Hagrid was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to reply. After a while, he faced Tang De and ordered, "Go and see if what she said is true."
"Boss, just let me go......" Tang De said with a depressed face.
Seeing this, Hagrid had no choice but to say, "Well, if we really can't recruit someone, we'll take you with us." ”
As soon as the words fell, Lilith bowed with a smile and said sweetly, "Thank you, boss~"
"If you want to thank him, thank him." Hagrid glanced at the iron slag and said, "You young people can communicate more." ”
"Thank you, boss~" As she spoke, Lilith bowed to the iron slag again, looking unusually well-behaved.
Looking at this slippery little goblin, Iron Slag said angrily: "Just be honest." ”
For the rest of the day, the three of them continued to wait for the applicants, but after several hours, no one came. At lunchtime, the bar owner took advantage of the time when the food was served, and said, "Hagrid, don't try to recruit people this season, let's think of something else as soon as possible." "On the one hand, not many hunters are willing to go out in winter; On the other hand, the goal of this operation is search and rescue, not to make money, and few people are willing to do unprofitable business that may cost their lives when they know that there is danger.
"Let's see." Hagrid said.
However, as if to confirm the words of the bar owner, in the middle of the night, they still did not recruit a single person.
The next day, Hagrid took the iron slag to the council hall of the Blackwater Lake stronghold. The supreme leader here is the Crimson Rain Blood Eagle Zangwill, who is the Earthwalker of the Tinder family's Fallen Rain.
"He's not a good landwalker." Before coming here, Hagrid commented,
Looking at the firelight, the blood eagle was wearing a gold-rimmed red robe and a hood, which looked mysterious and luxurious.
"Friend, I hope to get your help." Hagrid stepped forward and pleaded.
"We're sorry, but your search and rescue operation is not under our responsibility." Blood Eagle refused, Hagrid had already done it twice, and his answer was still the same.
"As a landwalker, you have an obligation to save people in danger." Hagrid said righteously.
"We are not saviors, just awakeners, not to mention ......" Blood Eagle paused and said, "My duties are not defined by you. ”
"You're a selfish man who only cares about yourself." Hagrid accused.
"You're right, that's what I'm like, what's wrong?" Blood Eagle didn't get angry, just smiled and asked rhetorically.
"You!" Hagrid clenched his fists and glared at the former.
"Selfishness is human nature, I just do things according to my heart, is it wrong?" Blood Eagle continued to ask rhetorically.
Listening to the words, Hagrid roared angrily, "You have forgotten our traditions, you are not worthy of being a brilliant spark!" ”
"I'm or not, it's not your turn to judge!" The Blood Eagle gritted its teeth and roared back.
Suddenly, the hall was tense, and the atmosphere became extremely tense.
"Old friend, give me some help, I only need twenty people." After a moment's standoff, Hagrid's tone softened.
"Unless you recruit me in the name of Thunderhammer, don't ever think of pointing fingers at me." Blood Eagle said in a tough tone, and after speaking, he shook his hand and gave the order to evict the guest, "You go......"
