【Tucker Street・B&L Bar】
The light is dim and the voices are noisy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The proprietress was talking to the blue-haired boy in front of her while playing with her long dark purple nails.
The boy's oblique bangs covered his right eye, and if it weren't for his unhealthy skin color, everyone might think that he was just a boy who liked to pretend to be cool, rather than someone who had some secrets in his right eye.
"You'd be hard-pressed to find employees like that. The proprietress shook her head.
"Isn't there a big adventurer job fair tomorrow?"
"Juvenile, I don't want to hit you, you don't have status, prestige and money. You try to lower the requirements a little bit, maybe ......"
"I don't want people who will only send them to death. The boy shook his head, a hint of melancholy flashed in his eyes, and was caught in the eyes of the proprietress .
"If you're worthy of such employees, they'll come to you automatically," the proprietress chuckled, "Tomorrow's adventurer's hall will have a quest that suits your taste, and you may be able to find what you're looking for." ”
"What task?"
"At the moment, this mission is still under wraps, and you only need to follow the crowd to find out about it. ”
After the boy left, a man with sunglasses came to the proprietress side.
In this dimly lit bar, with sunglasses, it feels weird.
"Who's that guy?" the man looked in the direction of the bar door.
"Another boy who doesn't know the height of the sky. ”
"Really?" the man chuckled as he finished the wine in his glass and moved his gaze from the doorway to the woman, "I see it, you still have a lot of meaning in your eyes." ”
The man left.
【Tucker Street・Street Corner】
It's late at night.
A dark-blue-haired girl with a bazooka on her back ran desperately forward, with 5 men in black chasing after her.
At this time, the whole Tucker Street was asleep, only the hunters were still waiting quietly, and the girl was at a loss.
In the end, the girl was driven into a dead end.
"Huhu~" The girl pointed the bazooka at the man in black and kept panting.
However, the people in black didn't care about the bazooka at all, and approached the girl step by step.
Suddenly, the men in black seemed to have received some urgent information, and they fled in terror like a herd of deer that saw a cheetah.
After seeing the reaction of the man in black, the girl was stunned for a moment, and then immediately hid under the wooden board beside her.
Suddenly, a blinding orange glow flashed across the dark sky, illuminating the entire Tucker Street, even more dazzling than the sun. A few seconds after the light disappeared, the girl heard a loud bang, like thunder, deafening!
Then the whole world returned to the silence of the night, which was a little frighteningly quiet.
The girl rubbed her eyes a little dizzy and couldn't help but tremble, it was terrible just now, what the hell happened?
She noticed that a half-meter-thick stone wall had collapsed next to her, and in the smoke and dust, a figure lying in the ruins loomed.
The orange giant light just now should be the legendary gas stunt - Flame Explosion. Vass is the captain of one of the strongest organizations in the world, EAT. Gas is a well-known "tyrant", violent and cruel, without any laws, relying on his own strength, reckless everywhere, but everyone only dares to be angry but dare not speak. The girl wondered what it was that annoyed the monster.
The sound of the stone wall being smashed should coincide with the sound of the explosion, and the sound was a few seconds away from the arrival of the light, so the people in the ruins must have been bombed at the speed of sound after being blown up thousands of kilometers away, and now they must have turned into flesh.
It's horrible.
The sound alarmed the whole Tucker Street, and someone was going to investigate, maybe the gas would come too, and she had to get out of here!
Suddenly, the girl's eyes widened in horror.
She saw that the people in the ruins had struggled to get up, and their whole bodies were already bloody and fleshy, and then staggered towards the girl.
The girl slumped on the ground, struggling to move her body backwards.
The Bloody Man grabbed the girl by the collar with one hand and lifted her up, "Do you know...... The Exploding Man. ”
Blood stained the girl's clothes red," he ...... He is EAT...... Captain of EAT - Wa...... Gas. ”
"Hahaha...... Hahaha......"
The bloody man fell to the ground, perhaps dead.
A blue-haired teenager, who came out of nowhere, picked up the bloody man and said to the girl, "You'd better follow me away, or you'll be in danger." ”
Dawn, [a house on Tucker Street]
The girl woke up to find the blue-haired teenager sitting on the couch opposite her, looking at her.
"My name is Shen Mo and I am a healing mage. The boy said.
"My name is Tianxi and I'm a shooter. The girl said.
"Why are those men in black chasing you?" Shen Mo's tone didn't rise or fall without any fluctuations.
"You may not believe it, I found a tree in a park where no one is there, and I want to sleep," Tianxi's face was a little embarrassed, "I slept too soundly, and I accidentally fell down, and suddenly I heard a voice shouting, 'Someone is eavesdropping! 'Chase!', I can only run ...... my legs."
In talking to Shen Mo, Tianxi found that Shen Mo always had a calm expression and a calm tone, as if a robot was reading according to the program.
"What a boring person. Tianxi thought to himself.
"What about the Bloody Man?" asked Tianxi.
"In that house. ”
"Can I take a look?"
"Yes. ”
Tianxi saw a man covered in bandages, lying on a bench.
"Who is he?"
"I don't know. ”
"Then why did you save him?"
"I want to team up with him. ”
"Team up with someone who is dying?" asked Tianxi curiously.
"He won't die, I can heal him. ”
"I mean, he offended the captain of the EAT, you know gas is famous......"
"I don't know EAT, and I don't know gas. ”
"You are from a remote country, and you don't even know EAT. Tianxi took a second look at Shen Mo and found that in addition to Shen Mo's skin being as white as a dead man, there was some eerie black magic around him, which was not the same as the black magic of the demon race, and there was no such thing as a bed in Shen Mo's house, maybe Shen Mo was really from a remote country.
In the morning, the Adventurer's Hall
Shen Mo and Tianxi came to the place with the most dense crowds.
"You're also participating in this mission, didn't you say that you were here to hire someone?" Tianxi looked at Shen Mo curiously, hoping that he would make a "second expression".
"I can't hire anyone. Shen Mo said calmly.
Tianxi read Shen Mo's recruitment brochure, which was densely packed with tens of thousands of words of recruitment requirements, and the requirements were very, very high, but there was no mention of remuneration.
Tianxi would not be surprised if a child said that he was going to be king, but it would be very uncomfortable for Tianxi to be a child who had been trying to do meaningless little things in order to become king, and was still convinced that he could be king.
Tianxi and Shen Mo and thousands of other adventurers gathered around a makeshift podium, and many staff members were sending out mission leaflets.
When he took the leaflet, Tianxi was surprised that this mission, which required hundreds of people to participate, was actually introduced with a piece of paper.
Tianxi glanced at the flyer, "Mission Name: Prince Escort Program." Mission Level: S...... It is planned to enroll 900 people...... Escort the Prince of Phoenix to the Machine City...... Recruitment requirements: no ......"
"That's right, that's the task!" Tianxi crumpled the leaflet into a lump and put it in his pocket, "It's not difficult, and there are a lot of C values and money!"
After the job fair, Tianxi and Shen Mo separated.
