Chapter 88: The Red Devils
Ji Xinghuo sat in the hall waiting for his qualifications.
From time to time, bounty hunters would walk into the bounty office and take out their bloody organs and exchange them for bounties over the counter.
These organs all come from the body parts of the Beiluo Shimen clan and are divided into several types.
The most common is a bloody tail tip, which is the tip of the lizard-man tail and is easily recognizable. By looking at the color of the scales on them, you can also determine the rank of the stone lizard, the scales of the first order stone lizard people are lighter and gray, and each time they evolve, the scales are darker and darker.
Bounties are not set in stone, and the higher the rank of enemies killed, the higher the bounty will increase.
The first-order stone lizard people are only worth 10,000, and the second-order reaches 30,000.
The third-order is sixty thousand, which is already worth more than the first-order Dagon, and if it is the fourth-order, it will soar directly to 200,000, but there is still a gap compared to the fourth-order Dagon's bounty of 500,000.
The trophy of the Dagon is a piece of scalp, and their smooth head has a distinctive blue pattern that allows for the identification of ranks.
The vine spirits had to take out the core of the plant, and Golau Kerk had to cut off their tentacles.
Ji Xinghuo found that most of the bounty hunters were loners and rarely teamed up.
Even if you form a team, there are usually only two or three people, the scale is very small, and the professional combination is completely different from the ordinary hunting team.
The bounty hunter's class templates are the ones with the ability to conceal their whereabouts, such as Shadow Blade, Phantomist, Evil Wind Guest, and Evil Spirit;
followed by those with strong survivability, Flying Steps, Orcs, Stalkers, and Rangers;
Or those very unique classes, such as the Wizard of Trickery, the Blood Butcher, and the Bug Emperor, but rarely, only one or two are occasionally seen.
And, each bounty hunter has a more or less ranged attack ability, even if they are not full-time rangers and stalkers, they will carry a bow or crossbow.
The kind of class that is good at frontal combat or strong defense is almost impossible to see.
It's easy to understand.
Bounty hunters play assassination, the most important ability is concealment and detection, a hit misses, immediately flee, all battles are premised on their own survival.
The two-clan defense line is the battlefield.
You may be able to win the first wave of enemies by fighting the enemy head-on on the battlefield, but you will soon face a steady stream of reinforcements, and you will definitely die if you are surrounded by it.
No matter how strong your combat power is, you will be overwhelmed by countless enemies, unless you are a legend or a king.
There is no need to be a bounty hunter, as long as you appear on the battlefield, the powerhouses of the Beiluo Division will also appear.
Ji Xinghuo observed the bounty hunters one by one.
Most of them are high-level Inhumans.
Their weapons and equipment are very good, because they are not short of money, so they can buy their favorite weapons and equipment, and they have battle marks everywhere and murderous in their eyes.
This kind of Inhumans killed from actual combat is far stronger than Inhumans of the same level.
Even then, they turned in very little loot.
Most of them are the tail tip of the stone lizard people and the antennae of the Golau Khak, and there are only two or three, and the scalp of the Dagon can only be seen once in a while, and the plant core of the vine spirit has never been seen.
After exchanging the bonus, most bounty hunters leave immediately.
There were also a few people who stayed and walked over to browse the scoreboards on the walls of the hall.
When Ji Xinghuo came in, he noticed that there was a very conspicuous bulletin board hanging on one wall, with names and numbers written on it in chalk.
These numbers are Hero Points, and the calculation is simple.
Killing a first-order enemy of the Beiluo Division Clan gets one point, killing a second-order enemy is two points, and so on.
The staff at the Bounty Office will update the points daily.
The points displayed on the bulletin board are counted for the current month, and will not be recalculated until the last day of each astral month.
The top three bounty hunters of the month will receive additional bonuses and a chance to meet with the midpoint garrison general to receive a commendation and be given priority in purchasing weapons and equipment from the arsenal at a discounted price.
It's the hot moon, and it's already halfway there.
The number one bounty hunter on the scoreboard with a total of 620 points.
2nd place with 575 points.
The third to eighth places are between 300 and 450 points, which is a clear gap from the top two.
The points from the ninth place are all below 300 points, and the gap between them is very small, and the final 100th place also has more than 200 points.
"Yesterday, Jing Ji's points rose by another 40 points!"
"yes......"
"He's with Alex again, and it's not easy to catch up."
Ji Xinghuo heard several bounty hunters discussing, and the "thorn halberd" in their mouth was the number one name in the standings, and Alex was ranked second. Listening to them, it seems that the two people are in a competition, and the chase is very fierce.
He listened for a moment, and sure enough.
This Jing Ji is a member of the Asian Communist Party, and Alex is a member of the United States, and because of the hostility between the country and the position, the two have clashed several times.
But this is the Astral Boundary's line of defense, facing a common enemy, the Northern Fall Division.
Neither Jing Ji nor Alex made a death attack on each other, but reached a bet to kill the Beiluo Sect to obtain points as the standard, for half an astral year, that is, nine astral months, and the losing side had to publicly admit that they were the losers and withdraw from the Midpoint Fortress.
This competition has been going on for the eighth month, and Jing Ji is currently leading by nearly 300 points, which is a big advantage.
However, Alex also has the possibility of catching up.
Bounty hunters don't kill their prey consistently every day, and sometimes they find a good opportunity to come in a big wave, and they can earn dozens of points in a single battle.
Ji Xinghuo sat next to him and listened with relish.
He was about to interject to ask a few words, when he saw a fair-skinned man walk in, and the eyes of the other bounty hunters were drawn to him.
"Alex!"
"Red Devils!"
Ji Xinghuo couldn't help but look at this bounty hunter.
Judging by the strength of the magnetic field and the fluctuation of aether energy, this Alex is obviously a super inhuman, and he is also the top powerhouse among super inhumans.
Alex is not very tall, only about 1.75 meters, and he doesn't look very strong, wearing a black leather jacket with a hood inside, which is pulled up to cover most of his face, and a pair of jeans underneath, which doesn't seem to have any defense.
He was carrying no weapons or other equipment, and was bare-handed.
But no one dares to underestimate it.
Because, Alex is a blood butcher!
This class template relies entirely on your own body to fight, and the body is the weapon. The Blood Butcher's core ability is called the "Blood Limb Virus", which is an over-limit ability that allows the body to mutate, and the limbs and torso can change into various forms, swords, guns, shields, axes, and switch at will.
The bones of the Blood Butchers are strengthened by "steel bones", making their limb weapons more lethal and their strength continues to grow.
"Bloodthirsty" can devour the blood of living creatures to heal their injuries and restore their strength.
There is also the "liquefied form" that transforms the body into a liquid state that no longer has obvious weaknesses; The "Crimson Blood Mist" makes its blood highly poisonous, and can also hide its whereabouts, and the "Blood Arrow" shoots blood to attack enemies.
The Blood Butcher is covered in weapons.
They are elusive, both in frontal combat effectiveness and stealth reconnaissance, and they can also fight with battles, and are not afraid of group battles.
When Alex was at the mid-level Inhuman, he came to Midpoint Fortress to become a bounty hunter.
He fought on the battlefield until he was promoted to Super Inhuman.
He also received a nickname called "Red Devil"!
In APAC, the blood butcher is a rare profession, because this career template was developed by a biological laboratory in the Federation of Americas, which was originally born in an accident in the sixties of the last century, and after more than 30 years of gradual refinement, it has become one of the ace professions of the United States.
The vast majority of blood butchers are Midland people, and they are inextricably linked to the "Trina Bio Foundation" that has mastered this career template.
Alex was expressionless.
His skin was very white and looked a little sickly, and he carried a bag of blood on the counter, and said in a low voice, "I want to receive the bounty." ”
"Okay!"
The attitude of the staff was obviously different from that of other bounty hunters, and they immediately got up to count the loot.
The bag was dumped and fell on the table with a clatter.
"Hiss......"
Several of the bounty hunters present let out a startled cry, this pile of loot was as many as thirty or forty, more than half of them were the tail tips of the stone lizardmen and the tentacles of the Golau Cark, and the rest were actually Dagons.
Moreover, there are quite a few second-order and even third-order enemies among them.
Ji Xinghuo's eyes were sharp, and he saw several fourth-order loot, two fourth-order Dagon people, one fourth-order vine spirit, and one fourth-order stone lizard person.
What a bumper harvest!
The staff quickly counted it and said respectfully: "Mr. Alex, your total bounty this time is 2.7 million Asian dollars, with 75 points, are you right?" ”
Alex nodded silently.
"Here's your bounty." The staff immediately registered and took out a large stack of cash.
Alex didn't count, put the money in his pocket and turned to leave, stopped and looked up as he passed the points board, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and then left the bounty office.
It wasn't until the Red Devils had left that the hall returned to normal.
"Good guy, it's up 75 points!"
"It is estimated that an important guard tower of the Beiluo Division Gate was directly destroyed last night, and he is really bold, and he is not afraid of being intercepted by the enemy's legendary powerhouse."
"The Red Devils have surpassed the Halberd in points this month."
"There is only one and a half months left in their gambling contract, and if they don't exert their strength, they won't be able to catch up, and it will definitely get more and more intense, and we have a good show to watch."
"Who do you think will win?"
"It should still be a thorn! He is a phantom assassin, his whereabouts are hidden, his lethality is stronger, he can hunt enemies every day, and his points rise is very stable, otherwise he would not be so far ahead of the Red Devils.
"I don't think so."
"The frontal combat power of the Blood Butcher is too powerful, and if Alex does a few more big waves, it is likely that he will surpass the Jing Halberd in the last few days and kill him directly!"
"I hope Jing Ji can win because he is an Asian communist."
"It's not about the country, Alex has never done anything to humans, and although some of the living people are not close, he looks like a good person."
The bounty hunters chatted and walked out of the bounty office.
Ji Xinghuo listened to their chatting enthusiastically, waited for an hour, got his bounty hunter qualification certificate, and left immediately.
