Chapter 9: Bounty

The giant rat was dead, dead cleanly, a terrible red mist of blood like a swamp miasma, stenching in the cave, while the rat's neck gurgled with blood. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoIf I'm not mistaken, the bullet I fired just now hit the rat's neck and cut its arteries at the same time.

It was such an unexpected surprise, at least not in the light of the scene when I fired the shot.

A mercenary was bitten by a big rat, the bones of the entire thigh were almost broken, as soon as the battle was over, the nurse girl ran forward very professionally, dealt with it quickly, listening to the mercenary wow wow, it made people's hearts hairy, fortunately it was not me who was bitten just now, otherwise my thigh without any equipment would have been broken.

It seems that adventurers are really not easy to mix, a mouse can kill people. The nurse squatted down next to the mercenary, and with the help of another mercenary, she quickly anesthetized the wounded and quickly cooled, repaired, and sutured. After about three minutes, the mercenary's thigh actually recovered.

"Surgery in the world of adventure has reached a very high level, and the wound of a broken leg can be healed in about 10 minutes." Shirley said, "But internal medicine is not necessarily, I hope this nurse lady has the antidote to the plague, otherwise this mercenary brother will not survive." ā€

Just as Shirley was speaking, the nurse lady really took out an antidote, and when she saw this, everyone's hearts were relieved.

The situation calmed down a little, and Shirley began to look at me with incredible eyes: "The last shot just now was fired by Brother Zhiyuan, right!" It's amazing! ā€

"I don't know how, at least I'm hell-bent on killing this guy." I smiled helplessly, when the big mouse bit our companion, my shooting, just expected, but I really didn't expect that I could shoot the big mouse, you know, this guy is invulnerable!

"This is devotional, great devotion!" Shirley told me that in the world of adventure, an average spiritual person can withstand at least ten highly trained mercenaries.

Shirley looked very excited: "Brother, your talent is very special, believe me, you will definitely become a great adventurer one day!" ā€

Become a great adventurer? To be honest, I didn't think about it, and if it weren't for the poison of petrification, I probably wouldn't have been in the cave where these adventurers wandered for two years of expatriate service.

As he spoke, the wounded mercenary's condition had stabilized, and another mercenary took out a black saber and came to the big rat, ready to harvest.

"All the proceeds from this big rat will be given to you as compensation for the injury." Shirley said.

When the mercenary heard this, he said thank you, then looked at me and nodded at me, as if to express his gratitude, so I smiled and nodded.

In about 20 minutes, the wounded mercenaries were able to stand up and move freely, and the big rats had been harvested, and the essence was all hidden in the mercenaries' small marching boxes. After the battle of the big rat, I also became acquainted with the two mercenaries, and the two mercenaries showed great appreciation for my sudden blow, and from their words, I could feel that the status of "spirituality" in the adventure world is very high.

After a short rest, Shirley and I continued on our way. The cave is huge, and after an hour or two of walking, there is almost no end in sight. Shirley said that in the past, her main area of activity was in Cave 3, where the precious ores were found.

After three hours of travel, we came to a special supply station, which was set up by the "Arras Circus" and had the function of a "small camp", and Shirley usually returned to the camp in the forest for a week or so, selling the loot, and usually relied on these large and small supply stations to survive.

Since I was lying on a stretcher, Shirley didn't choose transportation, there was a supply of light locomotives at the supply station, and after a brief lunch, our team rented two police tricycles. Miss Nurse and I followed the two mercenaries respectively, while Shirley rented a light locomotive herself.

"There was a lot of terrain in the cave that wasn't suitable for off-road vehicles, so we parked outside and didn't drive in, and when we got to the supply station, we were relaxed." Shirley smiled and said to me that although I wanted to drive a car myself, the little girl just wouldn't, and the girl was worried that I wouldn't be able to handle some complicated terrain without training. I didn't shirk Shirley's kindness, and finally followed Mr. Mercenary in the same car.

After all, my driving ability is not very good, sitting in the passenger seat of the police motorcycle, my hands can be free, in case I encounter any monsters, but I can also deal with it in time.

After getting the locomotive, we were much faster in the cave, and the mercenary who carried me was the one who had been seriously injured in the battle of the big rat, and along the way, I saw him get a few more injections, and I asked him if he was in pain, and the mercenary only said that he was fine. But in fact, I often see him frowning in pain after the injection.

Thinking about the fact that this almost broken leg injury can be quickly healed, but the petrification poison on my body is so troublesome, so you can see that the petrification poison is not simple.

After about 8 hours of walking, we took a short break for two hours, and although we had been to many places, there was never a shadow of the "jellyfish corpse flower" we wanted. But happily, Shirley had another harvest, and the little girl was very keen to find an ore in a mountain wall, about the size of a quail egg, wrapped in a layer of hard stone on the outside.

When Shirley excitedly took it off the mountain wall, she couldn't see anything special about it at all. Knowing that Shirley used a small pickaxe to slowly break the stone outside, leaving a thin layer of protection, I realized that the inside of the stone was shining with a crystal red light, warm, very charming, I believe that if the outside stone is completely knocked out and carefully polished, it will be a very precious stone.

There is a huge gap between professional adventurers and ordinary mercenaries, and adventurers far surpass ordinary mercenaries in terms of combat ability, wilderness survival ability, and knowledge, so Shirley is not worried that the two mercenaries will covet their treasures. Shirley told me that he had worked with these two mercenaries a few times, and when Shirley was healthy, he naturally didn't have to be afraid of not being able to suppress them, but in the previous black-haired phosphorus monkey overturning incident, Shirley was seriously injured, so she didn't find mercenaries to help.

After seeing the little nurse's miraculous healing skills, I also have my own understanding of Shirley's previous injuries, and Shirley's injuries barely recovered for at least two days, which shows how heavy Shirley's injuries were at that time.

Shirley told me privately that the stone she was given was a one-star "Burning Stone".

Shirley said: "The one-star 'Burning Stone' is very popular, and I didn't have much savings before!" ā€

"But this time it's different, and when I get to the next supply station, for $330,000, I'll be able to find someone to craft a special weapon that glows. This weapon can penetrate the protection of the monster and greatly increase the damage of bullets, which is very valuable! ā€

Time continued to pass, and seeing that half of the 24-hour limit had passed, but we still hadn't gained anything, Miss Shirley began to get a little anxious.

"Why can't I find it, I remember someone once saw a jellyfish corpse flower in this cave." In the process of searching, Shirley kept checking her phone, and the little girl told me that she posted a bounty on the website inside the Arras Circus, buying the jellyfish corpse flower for 10,000,000 yuan and offering a bounty on the whereabouts of the corpse flower for 100,000 yuan.

I am filled with gratitude for all that Shirley has done for me.

"Don't worry, since someone has seen it before, then we have a chance to find it."

In the huge cave, we continued to search, and many traces showed that this giant cave marked by adventurers as Cave 3 was not simple, there were not only strange monsters, strange flowers, ores, but also a lot of artificial excavation estimates, and at one point I even suspected that this cave was probably dug by humans thousands of years ago. However, I can't help but doubt my own conjecture whether the people of that time were really able to accomplish such a great project.

With about 8 hours left, we arrived at a new supply station, Shirley took a few guns and gems on her body, and found the gun repair shop at the supply station, the owner of the repair point was a middle-aged man in his 40s, in this cave, he could get one or two orders a week, and he would not leave until a year or two had passed, and the resources available for mining in the entire cave had been exhausted.

"This is a very perfect one-star scorching stone, which can increase your gun damage by 25%, but among the weapons you brought, only the Super Black Hawk can withstand this aspect of the transformation, the success rate is about 65%, and the price is $330,000, do you want to accept the transformation?" The owner of the maintenance point gave his own method after seeing what Shirley brought.

Although the Super Black Hawk is Shirley's most frequently used firearm, she is still a little disappointed with the little girl's statement about the repair point, after all, the Super Black Hawk can only be filled with 6 bullets, and cannot be fired in bursts, and the little girl wants the scorching stone embedded in a more powerful machine gun or sniper rifle, so the little girl says sorry and asks for her own guns and gems.

But soon a piece of news changed the little girl's attitude.
