Chapter 236: The First Business
It was evening, and as the sun sank into the sky, all the hustle and bustle suddenly stopped.
Duan Heng's gaze swept over the surrounding green bamboo forests, as well as the pavilions that were hidden, this scene was picturesque.
This is the fourth platform of Cloud City, a huge luxury manor covering an area of more than 50,000 acres, accompanied by mountains, rivers and beauties, this is the treatment that can be enjoyed by becoming a butcher-level hunter.
So Duan Heng also enjoyed it as a matter of course.
However, he has been living here for almost a month, but there is no business at the door, on the one hand, because he is not famous, and there is no fixed hunter group, and on the other hand, because he is now a hunter under the hunter black market in Cloud City, well, it can be understood that he is the kind of collaborator who has signed a contract.
In this case, unless Duan Heng doesn't want to do it himself, or he wants to play some moth, according to the previous agreement, within ten years, he must work for the hunter black market in Cloud City, that is, it is completely up to the other party to arrange the action.
Of course, in the past ten years, Duan Heng has three chances to veto, that is, he himself feels that this mission is not cost-effective, or he has other important matters, so he can veto.
In addition, even if there is no work, this hunter black market has to pay 500,000 immortal stones for Duan Heng every year, and once there is a job, the commission will be halved.
In the end, if you die in a mission, then you are unlucky, this is a high-risk profession with a head.
Now that he has been idle here for nearly a month, Duan Heng is not in a hurry, during this time, he has maintained contact with the strange clone of Cloud City, and on the other hand, he has calmed down and studied the Xuanwu rune, this thing can be used on the second form of Long Yuan, it is very important, not only that. This can also make his non-existent immobility like a mountain immortal, more and more fake and real.
There was the slightest sound of footsteps, and then he stood downstairs.
"Senior Lin, Elder Deacon, please come and discuss the matter. ”
The business came to the door, Duan Heng smiled slightly, to be honest, he was still looking forward to it. The next moment, he had come to an ordinary-looking courtyard on the fifth floor platform, where a chubby old man was sitting in the courtyard, and in front of him, there was a huge abacus, or this was beyond the concept of an abacus, because it was not dozens of beads that were moved on this abacus. Rather, there are three thousand six hundred, and each bead represents a different meaning.
In the end, it's not about numbers, it's about planning and deriving something.
In the past, Duan Heng was very skeptical, why could some powerful old guys in this immortal cultivation world be able to plan something tens of thousands of years ago, and then be able to do nothing bad after tens of thousands of years, isn't this too ridiculous? It's too insulting to our intelligence.
But facts are facts, and you all believe that the sky can fall. People can live for hundreds of millions of years, and the force of immortal cultivators can blow up a planet at will. Why can't we believe that other people's intellect is also superb?
Oh, could it be that if force can be increased without limits, intelligence must be the same as that of ordinary people?
By extension, there is a special school in the world of cultivating immortals, just like physics and chemistry on the earth. Mathematics, like that, can be a discipline of its own.
As Duan Heng saw at this moment, this deacon elder of the hunter black market was the master of this, that huge abacus. Well, it's a pity that Duan Heng hasn't figured it out yet, and there are many things he doesn't know.
"Buzz buzz!"
The beads on the huge abacus seemed to be rotating and changing forever, Duan Heng waited for a while, and saw that the fat old man stretched out his hand like lightning, and when he retracted it again, there was a golden bead in his palm, and then he didn't know what he did, the bead suddenly turned into a golden bird, flapping its wings and flying away in an instant.
"Hehe, Brother Lin Dao, I'm sorry to keep you waiting, that's the case, three days ago, someone posted a task on our Cloud City Hunter Black Market, well, it's a bit special, the other party's offer is three million immortal stones, and the butcher-level hunter is named to take over, and you are the only butcher-level hunter in the gap in our black market, so, do you understand what I mean? In the past three days, I have deduced this matter, and I have not found anything wrong except for three doubts, so, Brother Lin Dao, are you interested?" The fat man said without hurry.
"Let's talk about it. Duan Heng nodded, his cultivation registered in this hunter black market was at the duke level, that is, the pinnacle level of the prince-level realm, especially since he passed the assessment and was evaluated as a butcher hunter, then the appearance price would definitely not be lower than one million immortal stones.
Moreover, his ice dragon incarnation is currently already the strength of the grass head king level, if you count Long Yuan, he can already fight against ordinary prince king level immortal cultivators, so he is not worried about anything, the big deal is that the mission fails, and he escapes by himself.
"Very good, that's right, our employer set off from Dijing three months ago, the destination is Wangxiang City, and there are two caravans with him, the qualifications are very good, in addition, he also hired a mercenary group with a second-grade rating, this overall strength is already quite remarkable, but this is also the first suspicion, from Dijing to Wangxiang City, there is no need to detour to Yunxiao City, and Wangxiang City has been destroyed more than fifty years ago;"
"Four days ago, this team arrived in Yunxiao City, but I don't know what happened, the employer fell out with the other two caravans, early this morning, the two caravans have been on the road alone, the direction is Kunlun Pass, and the employer chose to hire a hunter group rated as Sanpin, but, as we all know, the hunter group of Sanpin does not have the strength to cross the West Chu Pass and go to Wangxiang City, so this is the second suspicion. ”
"As for the third doubt, I can't say anything, in short, judging by my comprehensive evaluation, the degree of danger of this task meets the standard, then, Brother Lin Dao, are you willing to take over? If you agree, tomorrow morning, you will set off with your employer. ”
Hearing this, Duan Heng thought about it, then nodded, and said, "I agree to take over in principle, but if I encounter an irresistible danger, I will choose to save myself and quickly get out of the battle, this is no problem." ”
"Of course, this is human nature, but if you do this, Brother Lin Dao, you will not gain anything, and you will leave a very bad record, then, that's it, good luck, oh, by the way, you'd better visit our employer tonight, you have to understand that as a butcher-level hunter, you need to be not only guarding, but also responsible for guarding, finding the way, and providing the most correct and reasonable advice to the employer, so that the real danger is nip in the bud。 (To be continued.) )
