Su Lun came out of the hunting union hall and walked in the camp.
It's only the afternoon now, so it's still too early to take a rest.
He thought that he should get more information about the ruins, so he planned to go to the tavern to sit there.
Taverns have always been the most important "information exchange center" besides the hunting union.
The more critical point is that Su Lun thinks that 80% of the hunters who can afford drinks ten times the price of Old Lingtown are people who have successfully escaped from the ruins alive. They must have a lot of precious first-hand information in their hands.
Su Lun walked around and chose the largest pub with the largest number of people, which happened to be named "Blackadder".
This is a chain brand that is famous both inside and outside Old Town. The sponsor behind it is the "Clark Family", one of the five major consortiums that built the camp, and the sponsor behind the Steam Party.
Even though it was still daytime, the tavern was filled with all kinds of drunken drinkers.
They are all hunters who came out of the ruins and made money to spend.
Su Lun found an inconspicuous seat in the corner and sat down.
It costs RMB 40 a bottle in Old Lington, but here the rye wine costs RMB 400 a bottle and is sold by the dozen.
I even hired a decent-looking lady to accompany her for a drink, with a tip starting from 3,000.
Don't underestimate these girls, they are the ones with the most information in the tavern. Although they don't go hunting, they stay in the tavern all day long. They accompany many different customers and have a lot of unexpected information.
...
Su Lun just drank the wine one sip after another, listening to the chatter and farting of the drinkers.
"Have you heard that the 'Firebird Hunting Group' that went out a few days ago came back last night with a huge harvest. It is said that the stewards of the big chamber of commerce who came to receive the goods after hearing the news broke the door of their leader's room.
It's all broken..."
"How could you not have heard of it? It is said that the members of the Firebirds were so lucky that they strayed into the Central City. Not only were they not wiped out, but they were also lucky enough to pick up a 'forbidden object level' cursed object... The members of their group were divided into
The money I got is enough to live happily for the rest of my life."
"Why don't our group have such luck..."
"Captain Bess, don't even think about it. There are many high-risk cursed spaces in the central city, and there are countless aberrant monsters that can't be killed. The situation is unknown now. Even top professionals can't guarantee that they will come back alive..."
"No, I heard that the 'Iron Crocodile Group' mistakenly explored an 'S-level' cursed space yesterday and suffered heavy losses..."
"Two cursed spaces that appear to be 'T-level' have also appeared in the West City. The five major families arranged slave groups to test, and the entire army was wiped out... But the profits are estimated to be amazing. When will high-level professionals be arranged to go there?
explore..."
"..."
Su Lun drank wine in front of a quiet audience.
Nowadays, Auroville ruins hunting is almost these two extremes.
Either all kinds of people become rich overnight, or all kinds of groups are destroyed.
If you can open up a new area and come out alive, the income will almost not be bad.
Su Lun also heard a lot of useful information from these drinkers.
Which area is more dangerous and has more "T-level" and "S-level" cursed spaces...
Which area has the top aberration monster...
There is a "nightmare area" where a hunting group goes and never comes back...
Listening to the bits and pieces of news, Su Lun automatically spliced the fragments of the map together in his mind, and had a general impression of the entire outer ring of the Dawn Ruins.
.......
Su Lun sat in the tavern for several hours and heard almost all the news.
Just when he was about to leave, looking for a place to rest, get some sleep, and keep himself energetic enough to go hunting tomorrow, his eyes suddenly looked towards the stairs on the second floor.
The second floor of the tavern is a VIP area, which is not accessible only if you have money. It is a place specially designed to receive people from the inner city.
The iron stairs clanked, and several people came down.
The tavern instantly became quiet, and the sound of stepping on the stairs was particularly clear.
Her slender white legs were wearing a pair of slender high heels, and then a long white satin skirt that was slit up to her legs. She was just on the stairs. Looking up from this angle, her beautiful legs could be seen at a glance. After going down a few steps, she saw her flaming red wavy hair and that
Only the graceful and graceful figure can be seen.
Then, that charming and beautiful face came into view.
As soon as this woman in the white fox fur skirt came down, the whole noisy tavern seemed to have been pressed on the pause button, and all the sound was suddenly silenced.
A group of big men were stunned with wine glasses in their hands, their eyes glaring.
Her skin is white and gleaming, giving people the illusion that she comes with a high-gloss beauty filter. Looking at her, everything around her is eclipsed. Especially the slight curve of the corner of her mouth that looks like a smile but not a smile.
It even makes the charm between the eyebrows come alive.
She is obviously a gangster sister-in-law, but her movements make people see the grace and dignity of a lady from high society.
This woman's temperament is gorgeous but not vulgar.
"This one is here too..."
Su Lun looked at the woman and narrowed her eyes slightly.
He naturally recognized this well-known figure among gangs in the outer city, the legendary woman of "Butcher" Banner, the president of the Steam Party - Sabina.
The woman who impressed him deeply on the first day he traveled through time.
"Tsk tsk... I saw with my own eyes that this peach is indeed big enough."
Su Lun took a look and muttered in his heart.
Her chest was white and majestic, strong and proud, and there was a heavy sense of oppression in front of her eyes.
He was also curious about what other people in the tavern thought of this woman, so he was so obsessed with it, so he let go of some normal emotions, and then watched as the word "slightly charming" appeared on his attribute panel.
.
It's not a negative state either.
It's just pure "motivation".
This is a stunning beauty that can arouse people's desire just by looking at her.
"The charm attribute is very high... Is it the talent of being charming, or is it some other ability?"
As soon as his emotions subsided, the trace of confusion in Su Lun's eyes instantly dissipated.
At this moment, the woman glanced at the tavern.
Just from this casual glance, everyone in the tavern heard the sound of swallowing saliva.
After Su Lun keenly caught that glance, the mental power of his face fluctuated slightly, and he once again had a different view of this woman. He thought in his heart: "It seems that this woman is not like the legend. She only relies on her beauty to win.
A high-ranking role..."
After going downstairs, the woman was accompanied by a young man who looked slightly excited.
Su Lun saw that he was an acquaintance again.
Surprisingly, it was the young master of the Oliver family whom we met before in Fangshi, Danzig Oliver.
"Master Danze, that's all for today's drinks. I'm waiting for your good news."
"no problem!"
"..."
Probably they had just discussed something upstairs, and the two of them chatted quietly and walked out of the tavern.
After those people walked away, the group of stunned old men on the first floor seemed to come to life again.
The tavern was noisy and noisy again.
"Damn it, if I could sleep with a woman like this, I would be willing to lose ten years of my life..."
"Shhh, keep your voice down. You dare to make plans for the woman of "Butcher" Banner, and risk your life? Although I think so too, hahaha..."
"..."
Su Lun listened to these whispers and chuckled.
I didn't sit there longer and left the tavern.
.......
Early the next morning, thousands of hunters ready to go had gathered at the gate of the camp.
Looking at the flags, there are hundreds of hunting groups, large and small.
The agreed gathering time was seven o'clock, and Su Lun arrived ten minutes early.
When I arrived, I saw that all the members of the "Drunkard Hunting Group" were also there.
The team is fully equipped and is a regular small team configuration, with heavy-duty mechanical warriors, doctors, gunners, warlocks and demolitions...
As the leader of the group, Benson is urging the members to check the equipment for the last time.
Seeing Su Lun coming over, he greeted warmly: "Brother Johnny!"
Su Lun nodded in response.
He saw Tommy also appearing in the team fully armed, and asked slightly unexpectedly: "Captain Benson, how did you take Tommy to the ruins?"
Benson's eyes flashed with love, but he also had helplessness, and said: "Yes, this kid insisted on coming."
Tommy on the side also patted the musket on his waist and said dissatisfied: "Dad, I am not a child anymore!"
Benson shrugged noncommittally, turned to Su Lun and smiled, "When I was his age, I was already out hunting. Since he has chosen to take this path, he will eventually grow up... "
After hearing this, Su Lun didn't say much.
A hunter has a hunter's destiny.
At seven o'clock sharp, the team set off.
The Oliver family hunting group organized more than ten small hunting groups to act together this time, with more than a hundred people in total.
There is a second-level professional leading the team, the leader of the "War Knife Group", Bloom.
Rich people like the Oliver family have the most accurate information and maps on the ruins, and their route this time has been planned in advance.
In order to avoid danger when crossing the city, the team will circle all the way outside the city, and then enter from the ruins of the eastern city wall to explore the "Red Brick Tower Block" directly.
Su Lun knew that it was probably the young master Danzig Oliver who was eager to find the hair, and he had the same purpose as himself, so he was relieved.
.......
The outermost periphery of the Auroville ruins has almost been cleared, and there is no danger along the way.
The hunters walked very smoothly, the atmosphere was relaxed, and they could chat and spank occasionally.
The living corpse controlled by Su Lun followed the "Drunkard Group" team, as if it was being transported, slightly lonely.
However, Tommy has been following him, pestering him to ask for some experience with gunners and machines.
With more than a hundred people, chatting and spanking can always bring up something new.
While Suellen was chatting with Tommy, he also listened to the gossip of other hunters.
Unexpectedly, as I listened, I heard my own melon.
"Speaking of which, have you heard that another ruthless man has recently appeared in Old Lingdun City, an S-class wanted criminal who has recently entered the top ten on the bounty list..."
"Hey, there are new faces in the top ten of the bounty list? What's the origin?"
"I heard that he was a very powerful firearms expert who came out of the Cross Society. His name was Su Lun. It is said that he killed three second-level professionals from the inner city and became famous in one battle."
"Isn't this too much... A gun master may not be able to kill three second-level professionals, but he is still an expert?"
"The battle on Green Street was a great one. Many people have heard about it. Moreover, I also heard a piece of gossip from my brother-in-law. Before Su Lun joined the gang, he was actually a large inner-city chaebol.
The bodyguard driver who defected from his family was hunted down because he had an affair with the noble man's beautiful lover while he was driving him..."
"..."
Su Lun listened to the stories from those people and originally wanted to find out some useful information.
Unexpectedly, the more I listened to the story, the more strange it became.
Familiar formula, familiar plot, isn't this exactly the same as the Red Devils?
In the end, the topics in the mouths of this group of rough and tumble men quickly started to change from wanted rookies to which nightclub girl is more hydrated...
Tommy on the side listened with great interest. This kind of legendary story was what he loved to hear most at his age.
After listening to those people talking about "S Tong Su Lun", he suddenly thought of something, turned around and asked Su Lun beside him curiously, "Mr. Qiao Ni, who is more powerful, you or that S Tong?"
Su Lun smiled: "Me? Not even close..."
Tommy said seriously: "But... I feel that yours is very powerful. At least it should be much more powerful than my stinky daddy."
When Su Lun heard this, he asked curiously, "Is it your 'feeling' ability again?"
"Um."
Tommy thought about it, pointed at the person in front of him and said: "I feel like everyone has a light now. The fire on dad is like a candle, others are like matches, and Mr. Johnny, you are like a star.
..big fireball.”
Light?
Did he see soul, mental power, or dark spiritual power?
Suellen felt that Tommy might have awakened a very powerful talent.
He thought about it and said, "Tommy, don't tell anyone that you have this ability in the future. Otherwise, it may cause big trouble for you and your father."
Tommy was very smart. He naturally knew what Su Lun meant. He patted his chest and said, "I know! But I said it because it's Mr. Johnny. Because... I feel that you are a very good person, better than others."
"
Su Lun listened and smiled again.
.......
The hunting team walked along the outskirts of the city for half a day, repelling several waves of small-scale attacks by aberrant monsters, and finally arrived at the planned entry area of the city.
Dawn City has no city walls, so you can enter the city center just by finding any road.
There are ruins everywhere in the city, a scene of dilapidation after the war.
After stepping into the ruins of the building, Bloom, the leader of the Blade Regiment, shouted: "Attention, everyone, enter the dangerous area now, check your equipment, and be alert at all times to monsters from the sky, underground, and anywhere!"
Everyone responded in unison: "Yes!"
The hunters who came one after another had waged a tug-of-war with the aberrant monsters in the streets of Dawn City for several months. However, instead of reducing the number of monsters in the city, there were more and more monsters in the city.
I don’t know where those monsters came from, but I can’t kill them all no matter how hard I try.
Moreover, after entering the city, fog gradually filled the air, limiting the field of vision. The fog would also move with the wind. When it came to a dense fog area, the visibility would not even exceed ten meters.
The atmosphere in the hunting team suddenly became tense.
As we went deeper, we also encountered several deformed humans eating some corpse...
The hunters destroyed the monsters that were once their companions with just a few shots.
........
Then, not long after entering the fog, the expected large-scale attack came.
The breath of living people is like a beacon in the dark, attracting nearby monsters.
As he walked, Su Lun suddenly moved his ears slightly, and quietly placed his hands on the musket at his waist.
Another second passed before someone sounded the alarm and shouted: "Be careful, there is a monster in the sky!"
Before he finished speaking, a strange "squeaking" sound suddenly came from the fog. The sounds came from all directions, and the number was astonishing.
The next moment, everyone looked up and saw a group of giant bats with a wingspan of two to three meters suddenly flying out of the fog!
Flesh wings flutter and the wind howls.
Snap, snap, snap, snap...
Suddenly there was a loud sound of gunfire, and everyone raised their muskets and fired randomly into the mist in the air.
But there were too many monsters, and black shadows kept flying out of the fog.
The situation suddenly became critical.
Benson and his hunting group are mostly experienced hunters. When encountering a situation, they can instantly assemble a defensive formation.
Because Tommy was in the team, he was the core of the crowd, and Su Lun also benefited. He didn't have many opportunities to take action. Occasionally, he fired a few shots to knock down a bat that threatened him, and then fired random shots, so he was considered a participant.
Already...
Fortunately, because they were prepared in advance and had enough firepower, the hunting group quickly repelled those strange bats.
However, even so, the hunting group still suffered casualties.
"Damn it, we're missing two people from our group, they were taken away by that bat just now!"
"We also have one less member in our group..."
"Everyone, be careful, the bat's blood contains corrosive toxins..."
"..."
As soon as they entered the ruins, the team was reduced in number, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
However, the Drunkard Group was unexpectedly well-preserved with almost no damage.
The situation was chaotic before, and no one else noticed Su Lun's superb marksmanship. However, Tommy next to him noticed something and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Johnny, that bat has such small eyes and is flying around. How did you hit it just now?"
Yes?"
"You're lucky. You can do it if you practice more..."
Su Lun smiled and said casually, not expecting this little guy to be so observant.
...
"Go, keep going!"
The hunting group suffered little loss, cleared the battlefield, and continued deeper.
When passing by the pile of corpses, Su Lun looked at the bat corpses on the ground, with a deep thought in his eyes.
【Abyss Bloodthirsty Giant Bat】
Detailed explanation: Dark-loving and bloodthirsty; a deformed monster that has lived in a rich dark spiritual environment for a long time. It has a combat power that exceeds the upper limit of the species' rank;
Su Lun looked at the identification information of this monster, and for some reason, he thought of the mutated monsters in the sewers of Old Lingdun.
