Chapter 401: I'm a man who never brags
That afternoon, residents of District 17, who were following the website, discovered a startling announcement.
Father Bruno, who was originally resolutely xenophobic, posted a recruitment notice for the Void Investigation Bureau, roughly saying that they had found an abandoned habitable area in a Void Border town in District 17, which was deserted, and that the Void Investigation Bureau wanted to recruit some volunteers to settle in the town.
Originally, they were in front of the computer to learn first-hand information about the robbery of the Yungang Biopharmaceutical team, but they didn't expect to squat down to a more heavyweight news.
The first batch of Trailblazers recruited only three, but less than half an hour after the recruitment announcement was released, one or two hundred applications were received in the background.
"Don't go, they want to gar your kidneys!"
Some people are spreading panic while silently submitting several applications in succession as a way to reduce their potential competitors.
The three of them live in a small town shrouded in fog and monsters that can appear at any time, which is undoubtedly a difficult challenge, and Bai Zhu has never been able to figure out whether these people are fooling or really impatient when screening the list.
They spent an afternoon selecting three people from the vast sea of people.
The first is "Big Carrot Head", after having the experience of straying into the Void, he quickly became a celebrity on the website, and every day people asked him about his method of entering the Void and what he saw in the Void.
The second lucky viewer is named "Spicy Chicken", his personal resume stands out among the many street gangsters, he often traveled back and forth between the 17th District and the 12th Country in his early years, ran a merchant and worked as a mercenary, and later ran a business and a certain gang in the "outside world" had friction, in order to prevent the other party from retaliating, he has been staying in the 17th District.
According to himself, "Spicy Chicken" is a dish he once ate in a restaurant in the 12th country, and he still remembers it.
Although the last person is named "Sheep Village Chief", but in fact his profession has nothing to do with animal husbandry, a few years ago he opened a bar in the seventeenth district, after the first time he heard the rumors of the Void, he directly closed the bar and asked around for news related to the Void.
The rhetoric of "Ka Waist" is what he spreads.
Bai Zhu also found out that he used simple hacking software that he didn't know where to get his hands on, and sent a private message to all the people who didn't have permission to go out of a recent gossip that a gang of criminal gangs in the 17th district had deceived people out for various reasons, and in order to strengthen his credibility, he also attached various pictures that were easy to make people have various adverse psychological reactions.
Bai Zhu originally wanted to ban this product and put an end to this kind of unfair competition, but Song Lan stopped him after knowing about it.
He felt that this person called "Yangcun Village Chief" might be a business wizard, and these methods made him think of Zhuang Chi.
At the beginning, in order to transfer their section, Zhuang Chi even used hacker software to browse the browsing records of their old section chief.
Bai Zhu thought that he would have to spend two or three days to screen out the volunteers, but the level of netizens this time is really uneven.
In addition to these three people, most of the identities of the other applicants can be summed up in three words - gangsters.
From these applications, you can see how rich the 17th arrondissement really is in the thugs.
These souvenirs can't be sold, and even Baizhu feels a little pity.
In order to ensure the safety of the trio, Father Bruno announced that he would send two experienced "adventurers" to protect them.
One of them is the wind chime who was promoted to the combat officer of the Void Investigation Bureau just after the meeting, and the other is Song Lan, who happily wanted to go home after the meeting, but was intercepted by the leader of the swarm and was forcibly sent to the town on duty.
Song Lan usually claims to be a wise general, so on the surface, the combination of literature and martial arts is just right for the needs of the job, but the more important reason is that in order to persuade the new mayor to vacate the town, it took Lu Xiang a whole afternoon for the Void Investigation Bureau to set up an outpost here.
The poor new mayor was already suspicious, and as soon as he heard Lu Xiang mention the name of the town, he suspected that a gang of gangsters would come out of nowhere and blow up the whole town.
Therefore, Song Lan shoulders an important mission on this trip.
No matter what complications happen, even if the rebels declare war, the aliens invade the coalition government, or a meteorite hits the earth, he must make sure that the town is not damaged, or else the new mayor will collapse due to financial problems before he can restore his dream of developing the seventeenth district.
In order to alleviate the various problems currently faced by the 17th District, Lu Xiang also let it go.
She also knew that after sending Song Lan to the town, they might not see each other for a week.
On this night, the volunteers boarded a special bus to pick them up, and prepared a newbie gift package for them, which included a large amount of hand sanitizer, nutritional injections for 30 days of life, a set of chemical protective clothing, and a walkie-talkie per person.
"Isn't this going to be too fast......
The three of them were silent all the way before Spicy Chicken broke the silence.
Not long after he sent the application, he got a reply from the Void Investigation Bureau, and sent a car to pick them up that night, and now the night is dark and windy, and there are only them in the car except the driver, and it looks like this, the car is gradually driving away from the city and heading towards the suburbs.
"It can't really be a Ka waist, right?"
"Don't panic, Ka Waist is a rumor I spread."
The village chief of Yangcun eliminated the tension of several people in a unique way, "Who dares to bend his waist at this juncture?" Haven't you heard of it? The new law enforcer was in charge of a raid on a small clinic and happened to come across them in the waist of the Ka people, and immediately removed their heads. ”
"Really!?"
Although the matter of Ka waist has passed, the atmosphere in the carriage has become more tense.
"Of course it's true, it was a friend of mine who was unheaded, and I helped him put the head back later."
How can the new head of the law enforcer be so murderous?
The two of them shuddered for a moment, and it was no wonder that even the Foster family fled from the seventeenth district in disgrace.
"Why did you sign up?"
After getting acquainted with each other a little, the head of Yangcun asked casually.
The big turnip head was the first to reply, "I went to the Void once before and had some experience, and there was an adventurer who was torn apart by a monster in order to save me, and I had to do something for him." ”
"Me? I just joined in the fun, but I didn't expect to be chosen. ”
Spicy Chicken said that he saw that there were many applicants on the website, so he filled out a form casually, and he had never won the lottery in his life, but he was "lucky" to get the opportunity to explore the void.
The head of Yangcun Village was a little disappointed after hearing this, but he quickly adjusted his mood and said, "I met a person from a company when I used to open a bar, and he has been asking me about the void at a high price recently, we can sell him information, it would be better if we could bring something out of the town, the company is very rich, and likes to be the wrongdoer." ”
"Is it reliable?"
When the two of them heard this, they immediately became interested.
Recently, the Void has made the entire Seventeenth District a miasma, and most people can't find any serious work to do, they didn't expect to make money by relying on the Void, and they still make money from the company.
"Reliable."
The head of Yangcun patted his chest and promised, "I never brag." ”
