Chapter 110: New Bow
Ji Xinghuo and the others returned to the bounty office and received the bounty and points.
The staff immediately updated the scoreboard, and Ji Xinghuo, Jing Ji and Yuan Chongzhen reached 4,318 points this month, tied for the top three.
Alex was a new high with 4,260 points, but could only finish fourth.
"It's a record!"
"The record of more than 20 years has finally been broken today, and it is surpassing four people at the same time, which is too rare!"
Bounty hunters were amazed.
The staff of the bounty office moved a table, put it under the score card, and put the head of the legendary Dagon on the table, next to it was a mountain of 100 million cash, Ji Xinghuo and the four stood behind the table, and reporters and self-media bloggers took photos one after another.
After taking a group photo, Alex immediately announced that he had lost the bet to Jing Ji, and would keep his promise and leave the Midpoint Fortress immediately.
In the future, as long as Jing Ji is in the Midpoint Fortress for a day, he will not come back.
Thorn accepted the victory, but it was uneventful.
He was trying his best to downplay the impact of this bet, which was not a big deal in the first place, but fortunately, after killing the legendary powerhouse, no one paid attention to the outcome of the bet now.
Leaving the bounty office, the four separated.
Ji Xinghuo returned to the hotel room, washed and ate, and rested for a night.
Next.
On the first day of the night moon and the first morning of the cold season, Ji Xinghuo got up early to join Jing Ji and Yuan Chongzhen, and Alex had already left.
Under the leadership of Director Li, the three of them met General Wang Zhengwu again.
The meeting place was in the hilltop city of the Midpoint Fortress, the fortress headquarters, and the official held a small-scale commendation ceremony for the three of them. Witnessed by a group of officers, Ji Xinghuo and the three came to the stage, and Wang Zhengwu personally awarded a second-class hero medal.
The second-class Hero's Medal is much heavier than the third-class Hero's Medal.
The difficulty of obtaining the two is more than ten times different.
Jing Ji has been in the Midpoint Fortress for many years, hunting and killing tens of thousands of Beiluo Divisional Clans, accumulating more than 20,000 points, and only today has he won the second-class Hero Medal.
The recipients of this medal have various benefits and benefits in all countries of the earth.
In APAC, the monthly grant rises to 50,000 Asian dollars, and various official facilities and institutions are free to use, and they are eligible to attend a series of official events, ceremonies, celebrations, public affairs, etc., anyway, there are many benefits, and you can enjoy it for a lifetime while lying on the credit book.
Jing Ji and Yuan Chongzhen both got the medal and were very excited.
The Bounty Hunter Points system has been in place for more than a century, and there are less than a hundred people who have earned the Order of Hero of the Second Class by hunting enemies.
Ji Xinghuo is okay, he has only been here for less than two months, so he doesn't feel deeply.
After the commendation ceremony, General Wang Zhengwu left.
Director Li took the three of them to the reception room and said with a smile on his face: "Three, this is this month's purchase list, please take a look." β
He handed over the three lists.
Ji Xinghuo took a cursory glance, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Most of the things on the list are similar to last month, however, there are many articles on the different parts, there are more than ten weapons and equipment of the Super Two Star alone, and the sources are different, some are made by humans themselves, some are war trophies, and some are traded from the Astral Realm.
There are also some potions that assist in cultivation, which are also very precious.
What attracted Ji Xinghuo the most were two things, namely a bow and an expansion artifact!
The name of the bow is "Invisible Thorn", Super Two Stars, it is a product manufactured by the APRICOM Military Weapons Research Institute, the production is very small, there are only five in total so far, and it has never been sold to the public, and the holders are all military shooters, so there is no market price reference.
The price of the invisible thorn on the list is 30 million Asian dollars, with a 20% discount, that is, 24 million.
"The price is definitely low!"
Ji Xinghuo looked at the data of the bow and thought to himself, as long as he bought it, he would take a big advantage.
The Invisible Thorn has a poundage of 270 kilograms (600 pounds), which is half the poundage of the Dragon Falcon Eagle's Bow, and has an effective killing range of 420 meters and an arrow speed of 350 meters per second!
These basic properties alone far exceed the common Super Two-Star Bow on the market.
Moreover, the Invisible Thorn comes with an effect, and it is also its only function, that is, it can consume star power to shoot invisible arrows!
An invisible arrow!
Ji Xinghuo didn't get the bow to test it himself, but he was thrilled just by looking at the description.
The Invisible Thorn is not much worse than a super three-star even if it is not a super power.
He calmed down and looked at the other thing he wantedβan amber opal.
This is an expansion curiosity, produced in the crust of the astral plane, of unknown origin, usually a companion of superconducting ores, very rare, the use of amber opal below the fourth order can increase a chance of fusing xenomorphs, limited to one per person.
Amber opal is generally monopolized by large mining companies, and only a small amount is sold on the planet.
Ji Xinghuo remembered that its price was about 28 million, which was about the same as Sister Ren's Qingkong Fruit, but it was the same as Qingkong Fruit, and it was difficult to buy it if there was no channel and money.
On this list, the price of amber opal is only 25 million, which is much cheaper than the market.
After the discount, it is only 20 million!
"Is the military generous, or is this a real reward for killing a legendary enemy?" Ji Xinghuo secretly praised, and finally felt that it was worth fighting with the enemy yesterday.
He looked at Jing Ji and Yuan Chongzhen, and the two of them were also excited, obviously attracted by the treasures on the list.
"Director Li."
Ji Xinghuo asked, "What is on the list, can I buy one more piece?" I'm willing to pay the original price, no discount. β
Invisible thorns and amber opals, he wanted both.
If you could only choose one, you would have to give up the Invisible Thorn and go back to Olympia to buy another Dracon.
I thought this would be very difficult, but Director Li smiled: "In principle, the first place in the points of the month can only buy one thing at a discount." However, General Wang specially instructed that if it was Mr. Ji's request, we would do our best to meet it. β
Ji Xinghuo chuckled in his heart.
He heard some information from Director Li's words, and General Wang seemed to be paying special attention to himself.
"That's great!" Ji Xinghuo pretended not to hear it, and his face showed joy.
At this time, Jing Ji also asked, "I also want to buy one more, Director Li, I don't know if it's okay?" β
"Absolutely." Director Li nodded briskly, "All three of them can get additional discounted purchases." β
However, Ji Xinghuo could see a slight difference in his expression.
Director Li really seems to only care about himself, Jing Ji and Yuan Chongzhen are just incidental, so as not to be detected by themselves differently, but the other party did not completely cover up this, but deliberately revealed some meanings, hoping that he could understand.
Ji Xinghuo glanced at the list in Jing Ji's hand, and sure enough, there was something different from himself, there was no invisible thorn on Jing Ji's list.
This bow is for yourself!
"Interesting."
This arrangement is quite delicate, combined with Director Li's words, Ji Xinghuo can guess that this is General Wang Zhengwu's arrangement behind it without thinking about it.
"Did he see something?"
Ji Xinghuo recalled that at the award ceremony just now, General Wang did not show any other eyes, everything was normal.
This should be done by the other party, which is not only an encouragement to the genius juniors, but also a favor.
Ji Xinghuo was a little puzzled, but he didn't refuse the kindness.
"I'm going to buy both."
The invisible thorn is 24 million, the amber opal is 20 million, the first point this month has a cash reward of 5 million, and Ji Xinghuo has to pay 39 million.
The bounty accumulated from hunting the enemy this month is more than 90 million in total, and there is also the compensation given by Sister Ren for taking out the Toad Spirit Egg before, Ji Xinghuo took out this money relatively easily.
It didn't take long for him to get his hands on both things.
The invisible thorn was packed in a bow bag, and Ji Xinghuo couldn't wait to open it and took out a black compound bow.
Its appearance is the appearance of a conventional compound bow, the bow body and the bow piece are made of black material, the edge of the ridge line is sharp and concise, the start is very heavy, about 18 kilograms, the bowstring is also a kind of metal wire twisted, extremely tough, but the whole bow is not outstanding at first glance, similar to the common compound bow.
The style of the Invisible Thorn is the opposite of that of the Dragon Falcon.
One is simple and low-key, and the other is flamboyant.
Ji Xinghuo was not picky about these, he only cared about the power of the bow, and tried to pull the bowstring, which was indeed much heavier than the Dragon Falcon.
The bowstring pulled the pulley and turned, the bow blade contracted, and a heavy reaction force was felt on the hand.
With such a large pound bow, the fingers of ordinary people have been cut off by the bowstring.
It's just right for Ji Xinghuo.
At the same time, his left hand holding the bow handle sensed the mystery, the bow handle generated suction force, star power was injected into it, and suddenly the light on the arrow platform was distorted, and the arrow on it was immediately optically invisible, almost completely transparent, and only a very shallow phantom could be seen.
This is still in an unfired state, and once the arrow is fired and flies at high speed, it will be difficult for even an Inhuman with Eagle Eyes to see clearly.
"Good bow!"
Ji Xinghuo let go of the bowstring, and the arrow reappeared.
Jing Ji next to him couldn't help but shake his head, he knew Ji Xinghuo's archery skills very well, and with this bow, it was like a tiger with wings.
With the silent arrow and the stealth ring, if anyone is targeted by Ji Xinghuo, they don't know how they will die.
Yuan Chongzhen looked envious.
He smiled: "I knew that I also chose the Ranger template at the beginning, and I could easily take out the enemy without having to fight with people in close combat." β
"If you had chosen the Ranger, you wouldn't be where you are today." Jing Ji quipped.
"It's also ......"
Yuan Chongzhen just said casually, there are so many rangers on the earth, and he has only seen one like Ji Xinghuo, who is as perverted. If you change to other rangers, let alone shoot accurately, they may not even be able to pull the bowstring of the invisible thorn, and they will not be able to exert their power at all.
Ji Xinghuo himself was also very satisfied, put away the bow, and got the amber opal again.
Jing Ji and Yuan Chongzhen each bought what they liked, and soon they got their hands, and the three of them left the mountaintop city together.
On the way back, Jing Ji said, "I will go back to Earth immediately, take care of my injuries, and I won't come to the Star Boundary for the next year." β
He was still too weak to fight.
"What about you?" Jing Ji asked.
"I'll go back to the Sword Valley Fortress and continue to hunt the enemy." Yuan Chongzhen finished speaking.
Both of them looked at Ji Xinghuo, and he replied: "I'll go back to Olympia first, rest for a few days, and then I should hunt again, but it won't be as frequent as last month, the fortresses on the Astral Boundary defense line should all go, maybe I will also go to the Sword Valley Fortress." β
Yuan Chongzhen's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "That's great, you must remember to find me when the time comes!" β
"Okay." Ji Xinghuo nodded.
The three of them parted ways at the train station in the first-class city, Yuan Chongzhen took an airship to the Sword Valley Fortress, and Ji Xinghuo and Jing Ji took the train back to Olympia.
Ji Xinghuo sent Jing Ji into the Star Gate and returned to the villa on Qinghao Street by himself.
There was no one in the villa, but it was still very clean, and Jiangnan Caiyi would come back from Earth every ten days to clean it.
Ji Xinghuo looked at the familiar living room, was in a happy mood, and released Qinghong to let it move freely.
I sat down on the sofa and opened the Vientiane Star Pupil interface.
