Chapter 58: The New Director

The professional ability "Emerald Vision" learned by the ranger at level 4 is similar to "Mist Vision" and "Ice Vision", and is particularly suitable for hunting in environments rich in vegetation.

Unfortunately, as you can tell from the name of the "Port City Adventure" module, the story stage is mainly concentrated in the city, and there are not many jungle adventure scenes for Martin to take advantage of his vision.

The level 4 ranger also obtained the first level 1 natural magic.

Martin chose the "giant transformation" technique.

This is a very pragmatic choice, especially for rangers.

When Martin empowers himself with the "Giant Enlargement Spell", his hounds can also share the spell effect, increase their size by one level, have a strength attribute of 2, and significantly increase their combat effectiveness.

The hound "Landlord" was upgraded simultaneously with Martin.

HP 8, natural defense 1, strength 1 (19).

There are no reward professions in this chapter.

The three candidate reward feats are "Mastery of Collision", "Precision Shooting" and "Rapid Shooting".

Both Gao Fei and Jiang Feng have selected "Mastery of Collision" in other modules, and this specialty is not suitable for their current professions, so they should be eliminated first.

"Precise Shot" and "Quick Shot" are both good.

After some discussion, both of them finally chose "rapid shooting".



Rapid Fire: A projectile weapon with an additional attack as a bonus action.



After learning this feat, Jiang Feng can shoot twice per round.

Gao Fei currently doesn't have any long-range weapons at his disposal.

But if necessary, he could borrow Martin's shotgun.

It is a little regrettable that "rapid fire" is only applicable to "projectile" weapons, and cannot make magic rays such as "scorching ray" fire twice in a row.

But having said that, if you design a pistol-shaped wand and pull the trigger, it can fire a "scorching ray". Does such a weapon meet the premise of "rapid shooting"?

Gao Fei thinks this idea can be tried.

He didn't have the ability to make a "pistol wand" himself, but he could tell Ma Yun about this idea and ask his comrade, the magician, to help process a sample. Maybe there would be a surprise.

After completing this chapter, Gao Fei and Jiang Feng logged off together and had a simple lunch in the rental house.

There are ready-made sausages, bacon and bacon ribs at home, all of which are made by Gao Fei’s father and sent over.

The newly purchased rice cooker is said to have a claypot rice function.

Chef Gao tried it, and the result was mediocre in appearance. The rice was too thin and not crispy enough, but it still tasted good.

Comrade Xiao Jiang was not picky. He ate a big bowl of claypot rice and burped to express his satisfaction.

After taking a break and eating some fruit, Gao Fei and Jiang Feng went online again and continued to advance the main plot of "Hong Kong City".

At the beginning of this chapter, the perspective switches to the heroine.

Gu Kai

Counting from the day they joined forces to eliminate spirits, one month has passed in the game.

Lois Quinn and Roger Wayne corresponded every two or three days.

The frequent exchange of letters narrowed the distance between the two young people and made Louise feel more and more dilemma.

She didn't want to hide it from Rogge anymore, but she couldn't find the right opportunity to confess her true identity to him, and she felt very entangled.

At this moment, she received an unexpected invitation.

The host who invited her to the dinner was John Lucas II, a well-known millionaire in Marina City and the second generation head of Lucas Shipping Insurance Company.

This young and promising entrepreneur and banker has become the undisputed leader of the maritime insurance industry in Binhai City at the age of only thirty. However, behind the glamorous image, Mr. Lucas also has unknown troubles.

The purpose of hosting a banquet and inviting a wide range of guests this time is to completely solve a long-standing problem in the shipping insurance business.

The guest of honor at the Lucas family dinner party, James Gordon, is also a famous figure in Marina City recently.

The newly appointed police chief is also in charge of anti-smuggling and anti-piracy operations.

When the new Chief Gordon took office, he released news that he was preparing to crack down on organized criminal activities in the city, especially focusing on the "Blood Anchor Gang" who colluded with the "Raging Waves Pirates" and smuggled stolen goods.

In fact, the reason why Mr. Gordon, who has a reputation as an iron-blooded man, was transferred to Binhai City by the empire's senior officials was because they expected him to carve out a niche here and change the current situation of rampant smuggling and rampant pirates in the area.

After the news came out, no one among the officials at all levels in Binhai City, including the gentry and celebrities, publicly supported the new director's drastic measures to combat organized crime.

People kept silent, which was regarded as giving Mr. Gordon face.

In private, the Haikou he boasted about has become the laughing stock of people after dinner.

It would be too ignorant for a foreigner like Mr. Gordon to dare to talk about cracking down on pirates and gangs before the territory is well-established.

Of course, the locals of Marina City know how deep-rooted these two chronic diseases are, gangs and piracy.

As long as the smuggling business continues to thrive, the status of gangsters and pirates will be almost unshakable.

Binhai City is close to the "Belt Canal". As a maritime transportation hub connecting the two oceans, it has a unique location advantage in industry trade and has naturally become a distribution center for smuggling and selling stolen goods.

These objective factors determine that the local black industry is booming. How can a police chief who overestimates his capabilities change the status quo?

In fact, in the past, several police chiefs and even higher-ranking bureaucrats shouted beautiful slogans about cracking down on pirates and gangs when they took office.

As a result, they failed to change the underground ecology of Binhai City. Instead, they were changed by the environment. They either gave up their original intentions and became more pragmatic, or they simply joined the smuggling group and made ill-gotten gains together.

The social circles of Marina City did not believe that James Gordon would be fundamentally different from his predecessor.

In this atmosphere of waiting to see the new director's jokes, John Lucas II was the only one to break his silence and take the lead in standing up to support Director Gordon.

Inviting the director's family of four to attend the family dinner was his way of expressing support.

In order to show sincerity and at the same time to support the new director, little Lucas spread the invitations, and all the celebrities in the city received invitations to the banquet.

Louise Quinn inherited her grandmother's title of nobility. Although she kept a low profile and rarely attended social events, she was a member of the city's upper-class society, so it was natural for her to receive an invitation from little Lucas.

That evening, she had nothing to do, so she went to Lucas's house for a dinner.

Firstly, I wanted to relax, and secondly, I wanted to inquire about the latest gossip and news in the social world, and maybe help Rogge and Martin get business by the way.
