Chapter 687: The Black Market in Dry Steel City
Leo couldn't help frowning when he saw those two news, it was obvious that the appearance of monsters around the world had put pressure on the government army and the rebel army, so much so that they all set their sights on the people in the dark world.
It's just that these two job postings are very attractive to bounty hunters who don't have extraordinary powers, but they are not attractive at all to those who have extraordinary powers, and they will even feel insulted.
Every person who inspires extraordinary power in his body will have an inexplicable, superior mentality, which even the best of people cannot avoid.
Under the influence of this mentality, even if they accept the recruitment of a certain kingdom, then it must be a corresponding position and status commensurate with their strength, just like Sylvia.
Only a very small number of people join certain government departments because of other emotional influences.
Leo was naturally not interested in these recruitments, but he could sense from these recruitment information that the government army and the rebel army seemed to be struggling to deal with the out-of-control families, otherwise, they would use this method to recruit bounty hunters in the dark world.
Leo asked, "What about the Night's Watch, what about the Wizards, what about the Church, and isn't there anyone here who can deal with the out-of-control clans in the city?"
The bounty hunter said respectfully, "Why not, they are all in the streets now, if it weren't for them, the city would have fallen by now." ”
At this moment, suddenly a rush of footsteps came from the stairs, and Leo saw three transcendents with energy fluctuations hurrying up from downstairs, one of them was drooping, blood flowed down his body, and a blood mark was drawn on the ground, and his arms were carried by two companions, which seemed to be in a very bad situation.
"Robert, you damn fatty, come out of here, something's wrong!" one of the women yelled loudly.
The other took the unconscious companion and carefully placed it on the couch, and then put his hands on the wound on his companion's chest and covered it tightly, ignoring the wound on his own body.
"God, Scott trio, they've had an accident too!" Seeing the three people who came in, the bounty hunters were all stunned, and their faces became extremely ugly, obviously the current situation of these three people had hit them hard.
With the woman's roar, a fat man rushed down from the third floor at a very fast speed, and after scanning the room on this floor, after seeing the trio who had the accident, his face was extremely gloomy, and he didn't wait for anyone to urge, so he quickly rushed down in front of the most seriously injured person, skillfully untied the broken clothes that covered the wound, and looked at the wound.
I saw that this wound was right on the chest, completely dented, all the bones were broken, it should have hurt the heart and lungs, if it was an ordinary person, such an injury would have died a long time ago, and now this person is still alive, completely because this person's body is extremely strong and his self-healing ability is also very strong.
But no matter how strong his body is, in the face of this kind of injury, he is afraid that he will be more than lucky.
Seeing such a serious injury, the fat man gasped, his face was very ugly, and he quickly poured some medicinal powder from the box on his waist to the wound, but these medicinal powders had just touched the blood of the wound, and there was a sizzling sound, followed by some green smoke, and the man was still shaking in pain even in a coma.
Seeing the reaction of the medicine powder, the fat man's face turned ugly and fell to the extreme, and he reprimanded bitterly: "Damn, didn't I tell you not to go after the old scorpion? You can't deal with him, why don't you just keep stopping? Do you think that with a little power, you can do whatever you want?"
The woman with the least injury said very aggrievedly: "We didn't take the initiative to hunt down the old scorpion, but when we were chasing another cannibal family, we were brought into the trap, the old scorpion took three or four family members to besiege us, Scott threw out all the things that were signed up, and escaped the siege, but when he escaped, he was swept down by the old scorpion's tail in order to save me." ”
"What? Did the old scorpion begin to control the other runaways?" the fat man was already gloomy to the point of dripping, for what he heard from the woman's mouth was not a good thing for him, or even for the whole city.
However, the wounded's painful groans brought his mind back to reality, and he hurriedly took out some medicine from the medicine box, mixed it into a paste, and then quickly and skillfully cleaned the wound, adjusted the broken bones, and then applied the paste medicine to the wounds in the heart, lungs, and chest.
The drugs seemed to have worked quickly, and although the injured man's face was still extremely bad, the painful expression had dissipated and he looked like he was moving for the better.
However, the fat man's expression was still not relaxed, and while tying the wound with gauze, he said: "I have done everything I can do, now it depends on whether Scott can survive it with his body." ”
Hearing the fat man say this, the slightly relaxed expressions of the people around him became nervous again, because in their memory, the person who was said by the fat man in front of them would inevitably die.
The two companions of the injured could not hide their grief, and tears could not stop flowing.
"I remember if there was one wizard potion on the black market that healed wounds quickly?" said one of the bounty hunters.
"Yes! and wizard potions. The others immediately chimed in, and the two transcendents looked hopeful.
Unfortunately, the fat man could only give disappointment, only to see him sigh and say: "The last bottle of potion was used by Kaskin a few days ago, don't forget, his injuries were no less than Scott's at that time, if he didn't use wizard healing potions, he would have turned into a corpse now." ”
Hearing the fat man's words, everyone fell silent, none of them thought that Kaskin should not be used, because they all thought that what Kawskin did was definitely a hero, and it was worth saving him by any means.
"I have a bottle of wizard potion here, which should save him!" Leo spoke at the edge of the men, and took out a bottle of wizard potion and handed it to the fat man.
Everyone was stunned at this time, and looked at Leo, they were not only happy, but also a little suspicious, because they knew very well how precious the wizard potion was now, and it was really strange for a stranger to take out the wizard potion to treat another stranger.
When the fat man Robert, who was supposed to be the person in charge of the black market, saw Leo's appearance clearly, his face immediately showed joy, and he seemed to recognize Leo's identity, and he didn't say anything, hurriedly took the potion, and under the gaze of everyone, quickly dismantled the gauze, introduced half of the potion, and fed the other half of the potion, to the injured to drink.
With the potion in effect, not only did the pain on the injured person's face lessen, but also his face became bloody, and it was easy to see that his injuries were getting better.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at this time and thanked Leo one after another.
"Leo cut it, thank you for your help!" the fat man Robert also stood up, saluted Leo, and said with great gratitude: "If it weren't for your potion, I'm afraid my fellow would have left." ”
"You know me?" asked Leo.
"Of course, your identity was reported to the black market here a few months ago, and we also know about your visit to the Minsk mainland. Fat Robert nodded, but soon felt that his words might cause a misunderstanding, and immediately explained: "The reason why we keep an eye on your whereabouts is not because we want to do anything to you, but because we don't want the black market here to have something unpleasant with you for some inexplicable reason, which will affect our cooperative relationship." ”
"I can understand. Leo nodded, and then said, "Are you convenient now?" I have something I want to ask you. ”
"Of course, of course convenient. Fat Robert nodded hurriedly, then turned to the injured man's companion and told him some care questions, then turned around and led Leo to his office on the third floor.
After the two left, the relaxed group began to talk to each other, except for the first talk about what happened to the trio of transcendentals, and then the conversation revolved around Leo's identity.
You must know that the price of a bottle of wizard potion has risen very high now, but such a bottle of potion can be sent out to others for use, which obviously cannot be described as generous, because in such a chaotic and dangerous period as the kingdom of Mares, a bottle of wizard potion is equivalent to a life, and who would give away a bottle of life potion for a stranger?
Just when everyone was speculating about Leo's identity, an elderly bounty hunter suddenly seemed to think of something, and said, "Didn't the fat man Robert call that person Leo just now?
"Yes, yes! He spoke with a slight accent in English. Immediately, someone seemed to think of something, and echoed: "And the fat man's attitude, coupled with the fact that he mentioned that the black market attaches great importance to cooperation with Leo, I think that person just now should be the one who made wizard potions." ”
Hearing the bounty hunter's explanation, everyone had a happy smile on their faces, because if it was really the maker of the wizard potion who came here, then it meant that there should be a batch of wizard potions on the black market, and everyone present would have a way to save them even if they were mortally injured.
"Red wine, or ......" After Leo sat down, the fat man Robert wiped the blood from his wounds, and then asked Leo as he took out a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet.
"No need. Leo shook his head and rejected Fat Robert's offer.
The fat man Robert did not persuade, put back one of the wine glasses that he had originally held in his hand, and then put the rest of the glasses on the table, and poured himself a glass of wine, but perhaps because he felt that he had poured too much, he poured half of the wine glass back, and then carefully plugged the wine bottle, put it back in its place, and took a shallow sip of the wine glass.
After Leo saw the other party's actions, he smiled and said, "You are a black market supervisor, can't you afford to drink a bottle of red wine?"
The fat man smiled bitterly and said: "Of course I can afford to drink, but there is only this bottle of red wine from the Francbordo region, the thick fog on the sea has cut off the connection with that side, I don't know when it will end, this wine will be gone." As he spoke, he said with a straight face: "You just said that you have something to ask me, what is the matter?"
"Is the connection between the black market on your side and the other continents already in the middle of the road?" Leo asked directly.
Although this question involves some secrets of the black market, because of Leo's identity, Fat Robert did not hide too much, and said: "There seems to be a way to penetrate the dense fog in the south and connect the black markets of the other two continents, but it is just a call, and the real connection has been blocked by the dense fog on the sea." ”
"And your black market can still operate?" Leo asked again.
"Of course, there is no subordinate relationship between our black market, just sharing some resources, not to mention losing contact with the black market of the other two continents, even if we lose contact with the black market of other cities, my black market here can still operate normally. Fat Robert responded with great confidence, but soon his face shrank back with confidence, and he said, "Of course, if that's the case, we may have a lot less resources to provide." ”
Leo asked, "What's going on here, why are there so many out-of-control clans, so strong?"
The fat man hesitated a little, and seemed reluctant to speak, but the heaviest still sighed, and said with a wry smile: "Actually, there are not many real out-of-control families, and we cooperated with the gendarmes in the city to solve them all that night." Now these people are actually transcendents with alien cells mutated in their bodies, and among them are ordinary night watchmen, church knights, and some bounty hunters, we call them runaways. ”
"How many of them are there?" asked Leo.
"There are a dozen of them. The fat man replied.
Leo asked, "Do they all retain their wisdom?"
The fat man nodded and said, "This is also the worst part, they are all still wise, but they don't think of humans anymore, they think they are superior to humans, and humans are only worthy of their food." ”
Leo frowned and asked, "That runaway called the old scorpion is their leader?"
The fat man shook his head, nodded again, and said with doubts on his face: "The news I received before is that those guys are working separately, and they may even attack each other, and because of this, we are able to hold this place, but now judging from the report of the Scott trio, those guys are probably united." ”
Leo jumped a little and asked, "Why are so many people implanted with alien cells, as far as I know, the number of alien cells should be very small, right?"
The fat man hesitated slightly, looked at Leo, and said, "Actually, there will be so many alien cells because of you." ”
