Chapter 33: The Pseudo-Beast Tamer
New T City, a C-level defensive city.
Defensive cities are generally divided into three levels, Class A, Class B, and Class C. Grade A is the highest, and Grade C is the lowest.
C-level defense is colloquially known as the gathering point. Although the sparrows are small and have all kinds of organs, even the lowest-level gathering points are still built in strict accordance with the layout of the defensive city.
The city is surrounded by tall and strong walls, and within the city walls, it is still divided into several levels, but the area of the gathering points is small, and it is generally divided into 'buffer zone' and 'core zone'.
The buffer zone is the second line of defense against mutant creatures, there are a large number of semi-permanent fortifications and a large number of defensive weapon systems, if the mutant creatures break through the outermost wall, this is the last line of defense to block them, and the fiercest battles will also take place in the buffer zone. Most of the people living in the buffer zone are mobile residents, such as temporary hunters, caravans, etc., as well as the poor and the military. And because most of the hunters' teams settle in the buffer zone, the offices of the hunters' organizations are also here.
The core area, in fact, is the city center, the main commercial and economic area, it can be said that the place where the rich live, but also the place to eat, drink and have fun.
Where there are people, there is class, and that's not bad at all.
After entering the city, Li Gang and Gao Lei's hunter squad were temporarily separated, Gao Lei and they went to deal with their loot, while Li Gang went to apply for new ID cards and check the situation of his family.
The handbook given by Miss Sentry listed several prohibitions in the city, such as the prohibition of fighting in the city, the prohibition of bringing dangerous pets into the core area, and the prohibition of stealing and robbery
Is it strictly forbidden to steal and rob? That's a crime!
Guided by a simple map, Li Gang quickly found the registration point. The registration point is a small two-story building, and the registration business is handled on the first floor, and the people waiting in line are discharged from the hall. Li Gang could only queue up slowly.
While waiting, Li Gang chatted with an uncle in front of him, who looked to be in his fifties, with a scruffy beard, but his clothes were fairly clean, with a southern accent.
"Brother, you're also from Gathering Point 2?"
"Pretty much, I've lived there before."
"It's all luck to be alive."
Although I heard Gao Lei say that, Li Gang didn't know anything about the specific situation at the No. 2 gathering point, so he asked: "I went out for a while, but I only heard that it is very chaotic there, I don't know what the situation is, can you trouble my brother to tell me?" My family was there before, but now they don't know what is going on and are very worried. β
"Well, that's hard to say." The middle-aged man sighed and said, "Since the riot, the army has sent most of the people in the fence to the nearby Mingquan Defense Circle City, and the rest have also been sent here, and except for some outside the fence who have followed them to this No. 1 gathering point, many people have stayed. I was confused, I didn't want to leave the place I was used to, and I didn't leave. Who knows that as soon as the last group of transferees left, there was chaos again. Most of the troops were escorted, so very few were left to maintain order, and they were quickly crushed by the rioters, who then came under the control of a group that called itself the 'Dragon and Tiger Gang'. Those guys took people like people, killed people at every turn, and the women who didn't leave the gathering place were also arrested by them. They also claimed to be the best, and they also attracted many vicious and wicked people to join. It's all a cave, and those who have the opportunity to run have escaped, and although many of them died on the way, it was better than waiting for death there, and at least there were people like me who could make it here alive. β
"Dragon and Tiger Gang, this name is used badly in third-rate TV series, don't you dare to come up with a creative name? Another unlucky kid who grew up watching cheap TV series. Li Gang silently despised the person who gave the name.
"Little brother, who are you there?"
"My adoptive mother was still there when I left, and then my sister should go back. They should be in the fence you said. β
"Well, maybe they'd have left there a long time ago. At that time, it was a forced transfer of people in the fence, so you can rest assured. Maybe the government was going to abandon Gathering Point 2 in the first place, but unfortunately I didn't figure it out at the time and didn't leave with me. β
"Hopefully" Even so, Li Gang was still a little worried. Especially his adoptive mother, who was seriously out of line.
"Little brother, I've been paying attention since just now, this child is your child?" The uncle pointed to the little Lori beside Li Gang who was holding a barbecue bigger than her head and gnawing hard.
In order to make the phantom Lorian who was staring at other people's heads drooling, Li Gang successfully suppressed it with last night's leftover meat, hoping to get the registration inquiry before this foodie ate all the meat.
Li Gang wiped his sweat, "Uncle, I don't have a wife yet!" β
"Hehe, I'm sorry, in our hometown, it's common to have a child of this age like you. So she's your sister? β
"No, this is what I picked up, what kind of eyes do you have, my purpose in picking her up is definitely not what you think!"
"Hehe, of course you won't treat her badly if you are willing to give her such a large piece of meat to eat, this year, it is her blessing to be able to follow you."
Li Gang didn't explain, this uncle definitely wanted to be crooked, but he didn't want to see people, so he publicized that this seemingly harmless Lori was actually a super terrifying inhuman illusion.
The uncle stared at the large piece of barbecue meat in Lori's hand, swallowed his saliva and asked, "What kind of meat is this, so fragrant." β
"Probably mutant pig meat." Thinking about the thing with only armor and hair, Li Gang was not sure.
"Little brother, let's discuss something, see if you can let her share some meat with me, I haven't eaten anything decently for two days. I don't eat it for nothing, I exchange this diamond ring, this is my engagement ring, and now my wife is gone, and keeping it will only add sadness. β
Li Gang looked at the diamond ring in his uncle's hand, if this was true, it would be worth 18,000 in the past, but now I'm afraid that I can't even change a steamed bun, and the gold is better. Imagine that I used to be a poor bank, and I didn't graduate from college, where did I buy a diamond ring. So Li Gang simply took it and said, "It's impossible to divide it from her, but I still have a little bit of it." β
As he spoke, Li Gang opened his backpack and took out the last piece of barbecue. This two-kilogram piece of barbecue is held in blades of grass. Open the blades of grass, use the fruit knife to cut everything in half, put away half of it, cut the remaining half again, give it to the uncle, eat a piece for yourself, and keep the remaining half to 'suppress' the illusion.
Seeing his barbecue being delivered to someone else, the phantom was not happy, and shouted at the uncle with the piece of meat, it seemed that he wanted to snatch it back. But with Li Gang pressing, the phantom Lori didn't really rush forward.
Li Gang knocked on Lori's head and educated: "What is it called, eating in the bowl and looking at the pot, this stinky problem is not amissible, DoYou understand?" Eat your own. β
Pushing the piece of meat in Lori's hand to its mouth, Lori screamed twice in protest and continued to gnaw, but her eyes were still staring at the meat in her uncle's hand, as if she wanted to eat it with her eyes.
Li Gang said to the confused uncle: "Don't pay attention to it, it's just a foodie, but yours is also fast, if it eats it first, I can't guarantee that it won't rob you." β
"Hehe, this little guy is so cute!"
The uncle, who didn't know the truth, happily ate the barbecue that he wanted to squirt, he hadn't tasted meat for a long time, and he hadn't even eaten a few bites of rat meat, let alone this delicious mutated pork.
Seeing Li Gang with so much meat, many people in the queue were ready to move, and they were more restrained by the heavily armed police.
The phantom gaze of the phantom staring at the barbecue meat in the uncle's hand was suddenly blocked by a shiny thing.
"Don't stare at it, it's not cute to stare at cross-eyed, show you this, the legendary diamond, how about it, beautiful!"
Li Gang dangled the diamond ring he exchanged for the barbecue in front of the phantom Lori, attracting its attention. Lori, who was attracted by the light of the diamond, stopped gnawing on the meat, and opened her mouth slightly, as if she was fascinated by the dazzling light of the diamond, and she was silly and cute. Then, with its small mouth, it bit down on the glittering thing.
"GΓΆller"
In Li Gang's hand, only the half of the platinum ring he was holding was left.
"Squeaky Squeak"
From Lori's small mouth came the sound of oozing chewing.
Li Gang glanced at the neat fracture of the ring, and then looked at the uncle who also looked stupid, "Are you sure this is a real diamond?" Made of crystal candy? β
"Pretty sure."
Although this sparkling thing doesn't taste great, it feels nice to bite into it. After chewing on the crunch, Phantom Lori continued to nibble on its flesh. It was thinking if only this meat was as chewy as the glowing one.
Looking at the half-cut ring in his hand, Li Gang was speechless, "I touched a diamond ring for the first time in my life, and it was gone in less than a minute, am I destined to be a poor man?" β
The grief-stricken classmate Li Gang yanked the bulging little mouth of the phantom Lori who was stuffed with meat, "Don't you dare to be picky?" Give me back my diamond ring! β
"Ah~~"
Lori protested a little and ignored Li Gang and continued to nibble on its barbecue. This foodie does give people a sense of powerlessness.
Throwing half of the ring into the backpack, Li Gang also ate it. As for whether the phantom will have diarrhea after eating the diamond ring, he is not worried, just listening to the sound knows that the diamonds have been chewed into diamond powder, maybe its poop will shine this, a little disgusting!
"What the hell is she?"
"Uncle, it's better that you don't want to know."
After waiting for a long afternoon, it was finally Li Gang's turn, staring at the eldest sister in the window, he said in his heart: "If you dare to say something like 'it's time to get off work, and the business will be handled tomorrow', I will demolish the building for you!" β
Feeling Li Gang's scorching gaze, the eldest sister in the window stared at her with heavy makeup, and her voice was octave eight: "What do you see, I haven't seen a beautiful woman, say something quickly." β
"Sister Beauty, do you know how to write the word 'beauty'?" Li Gang secretly complained.
"What are you muttering?"
"I mean the beautiful sister, I'm here to get a new ID card, and I want to check my family information."
The eldest sister glanced at Li Gang lazily, and there was a little Lori who was curiously looking at the window with her little hands on the window. Then he said in a voiceless tone: "Get an ID card and take a photo in front of the board next to the wall, check the information at window 10." After taking the photo, fill in the form, and take care of your children. β
took the form and pulled the curious Lori down from the window, Li Gang glanced up, and suddenly his face was full of cows, Nima This is the No. 3 window, do you have to arrange it again?
I had no choice but to take a photo first to get an ID card.
Li Gang walked to the wall and stood in the frame of the painting on the ground, facing the camera lens on the window.
"Click."
As soon as the flash came on, the photo was there.
The information to be filled in the form is relatively simple, and there are only a few items, which are the original ID number, gender, name, whether it is an evolutionary, and the type of evolution.
Li Gang filled in all the other information truthfully, except for the evolution type, he thought about it, glanced at the illusion in the cute, and wrote down the three big words 'animal trainer'. Then hand the form back to the window sister.
The eldest sister in the window looked at Li Gang's form, her eyes immediately glared at the boss, and after carefully checking it to confirm that it was correct, she looked up again, and the poker face was like a dead tree and a smile like a flower, which made Li Gang shake goosebumps at a glance. The heart said: "Isn't this eldest sister fancy me, although I have a wide range of hobbies, but I am not interested in the elderly, especially the fat and healthy eldest sister!" β
"Oh, isn't this Mr. Li Gang, you see that I was too busy just now to pay attention, please forgive me for not being attentive."
At this moment, the overly enthusiastic professional smile of the eldest sister at the window was like the upper body of the old bustard in Yihong Courtyard, which made Li Gang's back swish.
"What the hell is going on? I wish I didn't know her. Li Gang wondered.
"What do you want to do?"
"ID card, check family members."
"No problem, no problem, you will take the watch to the review room first and determine the type of evolution, although you don't have to it at all, but this is the procedure. Then take this special pass and go directly to window 11 to check without queuing! Grab your stuff and go slowly! β
The eldest sister at the window enthusiastically handed Li Gang's stamped form and a note with a special pass to Li Gang with both hands, extremely respectful.
Li Gang took the thing, with a question mark in his head, the attitude before and after is too different, is it the privilege of the evolutionary? No matter why, Li Gang couldn't wait to escape from the smiling window elder sister and walked towards the room next to the hall that said Examination Room.
Since there are few evolutionaries in the first place, and the review is very simple, just confirm the evolution type, not even the level, so the review room is very idle here, and no one queues up at all.
Seeing Li Gang leaving, the eldest sister at the window wiped the beads of sweat oozing from her forehead, she was nervous.
"Get me a certificate!"
"What's the noise, if you quarrel again, you won't do it!"
The eldest sister of the window shouted angrily at the person in front of the window, and unceremoniously handed over the form, "Fill it out quickly." β
"Why is this attitude so bad, I was also a handsome guy when I was young!"
"Handsome you're big, don't fill in and leave."
The old guy who claimed to be a handsome guy when he was a young man honestly filled out the form.
On the inside of the window in front of the eldest sister in the window, there are two black-and-white printed pictures that are not very clear, but it can still be seen from the pictures of the mold that the people on it are the phantoms of Li Gang and Lori in the form. It is also written below the picture: Li Gang, the beast trainer, the beast servant/pet is an SS-level inhuman phantom, and the staff needs to be cautious in receiving it. If discovered, report immediately.
This kind of picture is distributed in all government offices, and everyone has a copy.
After the destruction, the communication satellites were all wiped out, and the ground communication lines were also seriously damaged, but after this period of repair, some of the country's key communication networks have been basically restored, and new communication satellites have also been lifted off one after another, but it is still impossible for ordinary people to restore to the convenient use of the communication network as before, and the current communication network only meets the connection of the key units and areas of the state. Therefore, the government's communication system is still okay, and the information transmission is quite fast.
At the same time that Li Gang left the entrance gate, the relevant video had been uploaded to a special government department. For this kind of beast trainer with quite a few high-level evolutionary combat power pets, it is natural to pay considerable attention. In the early days of the restoration of national integrity, it was indeed not a wise choice to make enemies with such a person, and it would be a great help if he could be tied to the national chariot. This kind of person with strong combat power is also the object of all forces, and the state, as the largest force, will naturally not let it go. Of course, even if you pull together, you can't rush up and pull without knowing anything, it is necessary to understand the details of the other party, what if it is a spy, and being too aggressive will often cause the opposite effect.
After walking into the examination room for a while, Li Gang walked out inexplicably, stamped the form in his hand with a seal that passed the examination, and asked him to go to the ID card collection window to get the certificate.
The reason why he was inexplicable was because Li Gang didn't have time to open his mouth when he entered the examination room, so he was warmly received by the staff inside, and he was directly stamped and sent out.
"When did this office efficiency become so high? There are quirks. β
Li Gang went to get the ID card with a full stomach, and the certificate was also very smooth, he handed in the form, and the card was issued in one minute.
This ID card is green, and the others are no different from the original ID card, there are photos and basic information, but the basic information is added to the evolution type of an animal trainer. Also, the ID card of the evolutionary is green, and the ID card of the ordinary person is white. The material of the ID card is much tougher than before, and it is less prone to damage.
With the special pass, Li Gang quickly found out the news of his adoptive parents and sister. Adoptive mother Zhang Qing and adoptive father Li Yue's sister Li Xiaowei are currently in the city of the Mingquan Defense Circle, and Xiaowei has even entered the Mingquan Evolutionary School, and they are all safe and sound, which makes Li Gang's last bit of worry disappear. It's just that communication is limited now, and he can't get in touch with his family in the first place.
Li Gang made up his mind and immediately left for Mingquan City to reunite with his family
Maybe tomorrow, it's getting late, how to get there is still a question, ask Gao Lei and them first.
"You say you don't have money to eat? Joke? Gao Lei said to Li Gang in a loud voice.
Li Gang plucked out his ears and said, "Tell me where I got the money?" Could it be that this old cute Lori has been sold? He pointed to the Phantom Lori on the side.
"Ah~"
Phantom Lori unceremoniously bit off like Li Gang pointed at its fingers, but unfortunately it didn't bite, and it was unwilling to grab Li Gang's wrist to bite.
"Mao, this foodie is hungry again, if you don't get it something to eat, you're really going to eat me."
"I'm convinced!" Gao Lei looked at the phantom Lori who was hanging on Li Gang's arm and flicking it around, sweating all over his head.
"Well, I'll take you to dinner first, and I'll give you your share of the money." Gao Lei said.
Only Gao Lei came to meet Li Gang, and the other team members went to do their own things.
"My money? When did you borrow it, you see I forgot it, how much? β
"I haven't borrowed money from you!"
"Didn't you say pay me back?"
"No, I mean, didn't your pet kill a mutant beast with armor and fur before? At that time, you gave us the skin, and as a result, you sold it for 310,000 today, it was really a high-level mutant beast, and that skin alone was more than all the gains we had from this hunt combined. Our most valuable orangutan fur is only 90,000. I'm not a greedy person, after discussion, we feel that we should give you a part, 150,000 out of 310,000 will be ours, and 160,000 will be yours. β
"Damn, you're such a good person, then give it to me!" Li Gang happily held Gao Lei's hand, and at the same time aimed at him, he didn't have a special hobby, he was looking for where to put the money.
"If you don't shirk it a little, where are all the 5,000-year-old rituals in China?"
"Got it back to my elementary school teacher, where's the money?"
"Don't look for it, here." As he spoke, Gao Lei handed a golden card to Li Gang, "A bearer payment card gold card, which contains 160,000 dragon coins, you can keep it yourself." β
After taking the gold card, Li Gangle kissed it, "Brother is also a rich man, buy two bowls for dinner in the future, eat one bowl and pour one bowl, wahaha"
"Let's go, let's eat!"
Under the leadership of Gao Lei, the two of them came to a small restaurant that did not look luxurious. Although this small restaurant is not luxurious, the store is clean and spacious, with more than 30 tables. It's just that it's the dinner point, but there are few people eating, and there are sparse people sitting inside.
"This isn't a black shop, right, why is there no one?"
"Isn't that a person sitting?"
"You're looking for excitement?"
"Don't stare at me, he has very good things here, but they are more expensive, and ordinary people can't afford to eat them."
"Ao, it's really a black shop, but I like it, who makes my brother a rich man!"
"You just have those two money, don't show it, you can't even afford to buy a weapon for the Eight Scenes."
"How much does your broken hammer cost?"
"The special price at that time, 888,808, with a set of back leather hammer straps."
"You didn't buy it from TV shopping, do you, why do you feel like a big man?"
"If you can't eat grapes, you can say that grapes are sour!" Gao Lei strode into the mountain guest and shouted in a loud voice: "Boss, come out to rip off the guest!" β
"I said Brother Lei, don't discredit my store, we are genuine! Never rip off customers! A tall, thin man with a slightly darkened mustache came out from behind.
"No business, no treachery, I don't know you yet, a hundred percent of meat will be sold for two hundred as soon as it is cooked" Without waiting for Gao Lei to continue, Bazihu hurriedly interrupted, lowered his voice and said urgently: "Don't say it, don't say it, are you my brother?" This is a trade secret and cannot be said casually. β
"Come less, who doesn't know your little bit of fancy intestines, today I will bring a brother to dinner, you kid can be more leisurely, otherwise tomorrow I will let the people in the entire defense point know that you are a black shop."
"Understand, understand, I can't pit Brother Lei, of course, there are also Brother Lei's friends." Bazihu looked at Li Gang and smiled: "In the autumn of the horse, the horse of the horse, the autumn of the autumn." β
"Li Gang, you know!" Li Gang raised his eyebrows at Ma Qiu, all without saying anything.
Ma Qiu was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood, "I am fortunate to be happy, I will take care of me in the future, Brother Lei's friend is my friend." Come, don't stand, come and sit here. β
Under the guidance of Ma Qiu, Gao Lei and Li Gang came to a table by the window and sat down. The pseudo-Lori, who smelled the aroma in the restaurant and became restless, was pressed to his lap by Li Gang, and if he didn't hold it, he was afraid that he would immediately rush to someone else's table.
Ma Qiu looked at the restless little Lori sitting between Li Gang's legs, and expressed his understanding, "This little girl is white and tender, so cute, Brother Li is good?" β
Li Gang patted the phantom Lori's head wistfully and said, "I'm just good at this, and I will never choose it." β
"Don't talk nonsense, do you have any good goods here?" Gao Lei slapped the table and almost broke it up.
"A new mid-level porcupine beast has been introduced, the meat is delicious, chewy, and delicious, and with my exclusive secret recipe, it will definitely make you want to stop!" Ma Qiu said immediately.
"Brother Li Gang, how much do you eat?"
"Half one."
Ma Qiu Khan said: "Brother Li, do you know how big the porcupine beast is? β
"How old?"
"If you weigh one ton, you will have 800 kilograms of meat, and half a ton will have 400 kilograms, or 800 pounds."
"Oh, it's so big, give me half one!" Li Gang said simply.
"This is 100 dragon coins per kilogram, half a is not cheap." Ma Qiu kindly reminded. In fact, he was mainly afraid that Li Gang would not be able to pay.
"Just half one, go on, it's not bad money!"
Money is easy to come by, and it's extraordinarily generous to spend.
"Okay, what about Brother Lei?"
"Bring me 20 pounds."
"Okay, I'll go and prepare, some of this is cooked, I'll bring it up for you first, eat it first, and cook the rest fresh."
"Go ahead." Gao Lei waved his hand and asked Ma Qiu to prepare.
After Ma Qiu left, Gao Lei looked at Li Gang and asked, "You can't finish eating so much, right?" β
"yes, but this guy eats a lot of food, so I don't want him to gnaw on other people's heads because he's hungry."
Gao Lei was speechless for a moment, you can't afford to hurt people who have pets.
Soon two large plates of boiled meat were served, and the meat was cut into thick and even slices, and before Li Gang could do it, the phantom Lori had already stretched out two small hands and pulled it away, excitedly holding the whole plate in front of her to her mouth, and directly mouthing, so that Li Gang, who was holding chopsticks and falling to the ground, was not embarrassed.
Looking at the one in front of him, holding the whole plate and grabbing it in his mouth, Li Gang really couldn't do it. It's a shame to compete with pets for food! But it's a blessing that the phantom didn't see the excitement of eating and directly showing the battle form, and it's almost almost like eating it, I'll bear it.
Seeing Li Gang's dry eyes, Gao Lei beautifully sandwiched a piece of meat, gloating, "You see that your pets are about to become uncles, why don't I share them with you first?" β
"Good!"
As soon as Li picked up the chopsticks, he picked up the meat slices from Gao Lei's plate and sent them to his mouth, and sighed while eating: "This meat tastes really good, higher than my level, it is worthy of being a professional cook, and there is still a gap in my wild way." β
"Although I offered to share your food, you don't dare to be modest? Not even a thank you? β
"Thank you~~~"
