Chapter 44: Bottom Line
I am the one with the highest bounty on the assassination list?
In a post-war city, even a hundred dollars could save a refugee's life, but those people were willing to offer eight million to kill him!
Eight million, at the current exchange rate of 10:1 for game currency, would be eight hundred thousand in real-world currency!
When Su Xia thought of this, he wanted to cut off his own head.
In addition to Lord Anlan of Feijia City and Lord Yutuo of Coral City, some wealthy people in these two cities also provided part of the bounty, which is why the bounty accumulated so high.
"My friend, this bounty is considered quite high in the entire tavern system." Yi Mo said, holding up his glass. "I think you have also heard about Commander Beifeng's escape from the laboratory. Not only did he escape, he also beat a robot that the Lord of Feijia City, Anlan, had focused on training, leaving only half of its head."
"Yeah, I've heard of it." Su Xia thought of the Thinker robot.
"Come and register. After registration, you can accept this task."
"Have many people accepted this mission?"
"Of course." Yi Mo shook the red wine in his glass. "Eight million bounty, who wouldn't be tempted? Who can give me eight million, even if it means asking me to assassinate City Lord Anlan, I dare to try."
"You want money over life?" Su Xia shook her head slightly, not quite agreeing with this approach.
"Haha, no wonder you are so poor."
“…”
One more identity means one more way to get information.
Su Xia is now a commander of the resistance camp and also a pharmacist living in the area ruled by the mechanical clan.
After becoming a killer, he can obtain information about the neutral organization, Zero Point Tavern.
The more you know, the longer you can live.
Yi Mo took Su Xia to the bar and said to the middle-aged man sitting quietly behind the bar: "Teacher, I brought you a new person."
"Another one?" The middle-aged man frowned. "Is this one reliable? Is there anything wrong with it?"
"Problem?"
Su Xia was stunned and looked at Yi Mo beside her.
Yi Mo turned his head and deliberately looked away and said, "Teacher, don't worry, this is a powerful one and he will definitely achieve some results!"
"Yeah?"
The middle-aged man took a bottle of wine from the counter behind, poured a glass for Su Xia, and then looked .
Then, he poured himself a glass and raised it to Su Xia: "Young man, have a drink first."
"good. "
Su Xia did not hesitate, removed the metal at the corner of his mouth, picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it all.
The next second, a line of prompts appeared in front of his eyes.
[You drank the rare medicinal wine "Tiger Bone Brew", within fifteen minutes, life recovery speed +10%]
Su Xia's eyes lit up, this wine is good stuff!
If recovery-type auxiliary medicines were sold outside, there would definitely be a lot of players who would buy them.
"Good wine!" Su Xia exclaimed.
"Well, young man, what do you think about killing people?" the middle-aged man put away the bottle and asked calmly.
"I can kill bad guys." Su Xia gave his bottom line.
"Okay, there are enough villains here for you to kill!"
The middle-aged man nodded with satisfaction, then took out a document from under the counter.
He placed the information and the pen in front of Su Xia and said, "I don't know what you thought before, but some of the members in the tavern are like you, only killing bad guys. You can communicate with them more when you have time."
"Okay, I understand."
"But there are also some members who will act regardless of whether the mission target is good or bad, as long as they are paid." The middle-aged man warned, "If you don't like these members and have a conflict with them, you must resolve the conflict outside the tavern. Fighting is not allowed inside the tavern. This is a hard rule. Anyone who breaks this rule will be hunted down by the tavern branches all over the world."
"Has anyone ever broken this rule before?" Su Xia asked.
"Yes, and they all died later."
"No one is exempt?"
"no one!"
The middle-aged man's expression was very serious, and he explained the rule again.
Even if there is a huge grudge, even if the other party killed your entire family and is walking around in front of you with a smile on his face, you cannot fight in a tavern.
Even the middle-aged man himself, as the owner of the Coral City Tavern branch, did not dare to break this rule.
"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Yi Yi, a level 4.0 psychic creature, and I'm the boss here."
Level 4.0!
After coming to this world, this is the second level 4 psychic creature Su Xia has seen, except for City Lord Anlan .
Even for An Lan, Su Xia had only seen his projection, but the one in front of him was the real one!
No wonder I couldn’t see through his panel data, the gap between the two sides is too big.
Su Xia borrowed all the strength from the main body, and is now only level 2.7, the same level as Yi Mo next to him.
"This is my apprentice, A-Mo. He has the same last name as me." Yi Yi pointed at Yi-Mo, "You should know him."
Su Xia answered honestly: "I know him, but I don't know him completely yet."
Yi Yi smiled and said, "We'll talk more later. You young people have a lot of common topics. Now please sign your name. You can use your real name or just come up with a fake one. It doesn't matter. When you're in a tavern, most people use code names."
"good!"
Su Xia picked up a pen and signed the three words "Li Defu" on the contract of the tavern.
Yi Mo licked the red wine on his lips. Seeing these three words, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth: "Friend, even if it is a pseudonym, your name is too rustic."
…
Real world, dormitory.
Li Defu, who was killing monsters, suddenly sneezed.
"A-choo——"
He rubbed his nose, thinking.
"Is there a girl thinking about me?"
…
Coral City, in the tavern.
Yi Yi smiled faintly and said, "I think it's good. It means both virtue and blessing. It's a good name."
Yi Mo shook his head: "The generation gap among middle-aged people."
"Amo likes to bring new people to the bar, but the previous few new people were not very satisfactory." The middle-aged man poured another glass for Su Xia, "Young man, I hope you can hold on."
During the communication, Su Xia learned about the situation of the previous guys.
There was a newcomer who didn't know what was good for him. His first mission was to assassinate the Lord of Anlan City. That night, his head was hung outside Feijia City.
There was also a newcomer who hadn't even accepted the mission, but was actually preaching beliefs such as "life first, love and peace" in a tavern full of killers.
After listening to it, Su Xia agreed with Yi Yi: "Yes, those guys are indeed sick."
"You look like a normal person." Yi Yi handed the bottle to Su Xia directly, "You should be cautious with the first mission. Practice first, and then try more difficult missions later."
"Can I accept the mission but not do it?"
"It depends on the intention of the person who issued the task." Yi Yi explained: "Some tasks are one-on-one, while others are open to all assassins. It doesn't matter if you accept it or not. For example, for a difficult task like 'Assassinating Commander Beifeng', many tavern members who accepted the task didn't even know where the oasis camp was."
