Jiang Baimian also finished reading the task description and unexpectedly discovered his pseudonym.
Obviously, the owner of the "virtual world" and some high-ranking officials of the "First City" have reacted and know that the pass code held by Marcus has been stolen, and they try to drive a large number of relic hunters through the hunter guild in the form of missions to help investigate.
Of course, this is definitely only part of the pursuit measures, and the powerful characters in the "Hand of Order" and some elite teams of the military are likely to be involved in finding the culprit.
"If you catch one, you will give 10,000 Ore." Unlike the excitement of the huge reward before, Shang Jianyao is now a little indignant.
His tone revealed the meaning of "the bounty is too low".
Jiang Baimian can understand where this guy's "dissatisfaction" is:
They and others got a crucial secret from under the noses of a "Mind Corridor" level awakener who could create a "virtual world", and they were only rewarded with 10,000 Ore/person.
"This is much more expensive than a ton of flour." Jiang Baimian took Qiao Chu as an example and casually comforted him.
"That's just a matter of giving effective clues, you can get a ton of flour, and you have to catch this." Of course, Shang Jianyao is not so easy to fool.
The difficulty of the two is simply not the same.
On Qiao Chu's task, the "old tune team" could even split the intelligence into several parts, and each one was exchanged for a ton of flour.
- The reward for providing clues this time is divided into three levels: 50 Ore, 100 Ore, and 300 Ore.
Jiang Baimian did not dwell on this topic and re-read the relevant description of the task.
The promulgator is the "Hand of Order", an official agency, with enough credit, they did not mention the three targets of the bounty because the other party contacted the key protected objects in the gladiatorial arena and stole important secrets, but only classified Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong as accomplices of the murderers of the last assassination, suspecting that they were plotting a big conspiracy against the "First City", so the bounty amount was greatly increased.
Well, it doesn't matter if it involves secrets or not, not catching people on the spot means that secrets will inevitably be leaked, and it is impossible to be stopped...... "First City" is not trying to cut off the spread of intelligence, but to figure out which force did it, hehe, retaliate by the way...... Jiang Baimian looked at the big screen and thought emotionally steadily.
The target portrait given by "Hand of Order" comes from the camera, which is not so clear, and some corrections have been made in combination with witnesses, while Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian have made major changes to make themselves look like Honghe people.
Although Long Yuehong still plays the role of a gray man, he also disguises himself, and he doesn't even leave a pseudonym, and is called the "third criminal" in the mission description.
At this time, waiting for the data to be printed, he also discovered the task with a generous bounty.
Fortunately, the focus is on the team leader and Shang Jianyao, and there is not much description of me...... While he was happy, he sighed about the amount of bounty:
"That's a lot......
Ten thousand Ore is enough to turn a wilderness wanderer into a "decent person" with a house and shop in the city, as long as he can maintain stability in the future, he will live a good life.
Hearing Long Yuehong's emotion, Shang Jianyao turned his head sideways and said with a smile:
"Yes, there are quite a few!"
While speaking, he looked Long Yuehong up and down, as if he was counting ten thousand Olei.
If you have the ability, you have turned yourself in!" Long Yuehong didn't dare to speak this time, but the surrounding environment suppressed his impulse.
There are so many relic hunters nearby, who knows if there are any good hearing!
Shang Jianyao withdrew his gaze and looked at Jiang Baimian:
"Do you want to pick it up? Anyway, there is no punishment for not completing it."
Jiang Baimian pondered for a moment and said with a smile:
"Yes, even if you can't catch people, you can exchange a lot of money if you get some clues."
"......" Long Yuehong didn't expect the team leader to really agree.
"I just hope we can find effective clues before leaving the original city." Jiang Baimian pretended to add with emotion.
Long Yuehong understood this:
The team leader means that when he is about to leave the original city, he will get some information from his group and submit it to the "Hand of Order" to extract the remaining value.
This is simply too bad...... Long Yuehong held back for a long time and finally came up with an adjective.
When Shang Jianyao went to take over the task, Long Yuehong also got the information on the situation of Waite and the others' families.
…………
Red Giant Wolf District, an earlier community.
The houses here are not too high, there are many traces of repairs, and they are connected to each other, forming a relatively closed area.
Unlike the living habits of the Red River Basin in the Old World, when the "First City" was first established, due to the harsh environment, chaotic situation, and frequent conflicts, a team of people often lived in adjacent places, watched and helped each other, or occupied villages that could produce food.
In that era, except for some awakened people and sub-humans, the vast majority of humans had to huddle together to survive, otherwise no matter how powerful you were, how many "heartless" and aberrant creatures could you fire several guns at the same time?
Based on such "folk customs", the older communities in the "First City" have no more than five floors at all, and there are only a few entrances and exits, similar to a city within a city.
Once chaos occurs, this kind of place can hold out for a long time as long as the obstacles are blocked.
Of course, provided that the enemy does not have heavy firepower.
Today, similar communities are inhabited by citizens of the "original city" and citizens who can maintain a certain status and income.
"Waite's wife and children live here?" Long Yuehong looked at the community in front of her with some surprise.
If it weren't for the information in his hand being certified by the Hunter Guild, he would have wondered if he had encountered a liar again.
Although Waite is an Awakened person, he doesn't seem to be mixing very well.
"Maybe he took most of the harvest home, and he didn't leave much on himself." Bai Chen had seen too many similar relic hunters.
When they venture into the wilderness, they may indulge themselves and release stress, but this does not affect their willingness to be good to their families and even be willing to mean themselves for it.
"Go in." Jiang Baimian glanced at the silent Shang Jianyao and took the lead in walking to the entrance of the community.
After registration and a simple inspection, they bypassed one building after another and came to a certain five-story building.
Waite's house is on the first floor here.
Long Yuehong stood at the door, suddenly a little apprehensive, not knowing how Waite's wife and children would react, whether they would be so sad that they couldn't help themselves.
If I die outside, will the team leader have similar concerns when they go to my house to notify? Long Yuehong exhaled slowly and rang the doorbell.
While the movement of the bell echoed, a sound of footsteps approached, and the door was pulled open.
What appeared in front of the "old tune group" and others was a twenty-seven or eight-year-old Honghe woman.
She was wearing a white blouse, and although her clothes were old, they were cleaned very clean.
The sun shone in from outside, making the windows look bright and clean, and the two children were gathered around the sofa, looking curiously at the door.
On the coffee table in front of them, there were some children's books unearthed from the ruins of the old world city.
"Are you?" The Honghe woman asked hesitantly.
She was a little wary and a little solemn, as if she had a bad premonition.
Long Yuehong saw that Jiang Baimian and the others were silent, and opened her mouth and said:
"Are you Waite's wife?"
The woman's face suddenly turned pale.
She asked urgently:
"He, where is he?"
"He died in the middle of the adventure." Long Yuehong didn't say that Waite killed himself.
The woman's body shook twice unconsciously, and asked:
"Where is his body?"
"In the woods outside the North Shore Gunshan No. 2 advance camp, we have marked ......" Long Yuehong's words gradually flowed smoothly.
Energy is precious in the mountains, and it is impossible for similar dead people to be cremated, so it is quite lucky that someone can dig a pit for them and bury them.
After all, in some places and within certain groups, this is also food.
The woman's lips moved for a while, and finally spat out a word:
"Thank you."
Her voice was very low.
Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jianyao and motioned for him to confirm.
Shang Jianyao used a "reasoning clown" with no trace to complete this matter.
That is Waite's wife.
Long Yuehong then took out Waite's relic and handed it over:
"This is his belonging."
Waite's wife took the bag, opened it, and a look of surprise appeared on her face uncontrollably.
That's more than Waite has gained every time he went home before!
Just a few seconds later, the woman said eagerly:
"How much should I give you?
"I heard Corne say that this kind of thing must be paid to the returnee in part, hehe, Waite is his pseudonym......"
As she spoke, the woman's eyes turned red, and her voice choked up.
Long Yuehong was about to shirk when Jiang Baimian replied:
"We have taken our part."
She didn't say hello anymore and waved her hand:
"Bye-bye."
Waite's wife raised her hand and wiped her eyes, repeating her previous words:
"Thank you."
Shang Jianyao smiled at her:
"New life is like the sun."
These inexplicable words successfully stunned Waite's wife.
When the "Old Tune Group" left, they heard a child's voice coming from behind:
"Mom, who are they?"
"They are Dad's friends."
"Where's Dad? Why hasn't Dad come back yet?"
"Dad went far away......"
Waite's wife's voice was always soft.
…………
After sending "pensions" to the families of Waite's teammates, the "old tune team" came to another street in the Red Giant Wolf District.
This is the place where Long Yuehong saw Han Wanghuo's back before.
He looked around and asked hesitantly:
"Team leader, where should I start and ask one by one?"
This range will be huge.
Jiang Baimian's eyes turned slightly and he chuckled:
"This is also the question I want to ask."
"Huh?" Long Yuehong was suddenly a little dazed.
Jiang Baimian said with a smile:
"A temporary assessment to see if your ability to analyze problems and deal with things has improved."
Team leader, how can this be a surprise attack? Long Yuehong tried his best to use his brain.
