the only savior

Chapter 573 Wildfire Tavern
"The volume, energy output power, capacitance, shield strength... have all increased, and the basic value has increased by at least 3 times compared to before..."

Looking at the data projected in front of him, Zhang Xiaoman was quite satisfied.

"Huh? The maximum speed has dropped so much?"

He suddenly noticed that in the column of speed, the value displayed was 40000 m/s, which was 10000 points less than before.

But after thinking about it, he understood.

Although the ship has been upgraded and its scale is larger, it does not mean that its speed will increase accordingly.

On the contrary, as the body size increases, its mobility will decrease.

Not to mention that the previous Shuguang was a stealth special service ship, which was known for its speed.

Now after upgrading, although it still has the function of invisibility, its good at speed has been banned.

Replaced with the ability to specialize in combat.

Speaking of which, such a battleship is more in line with what most people know.

He has abilities in all aspects, and he is not particularly proficient, but he is not biased.

Zhang Xiaoman feels that as the size of the ship increases in the future, the functions on it may become more perfect.

In the end, it might become a Titan that can roam the universe freely.

He didn't know what level of civilization the Titans could possess, but the things produced by the system were quite strange.

Some accessories on these battleships look particularly black technology, and some are very ordinary.

Take the Dawn as an example, its jump engine and some intelligent systems are almost at the level of a level 2 civilization.

But the anti-gravity engine and the graviton reactor have reached the level of about 3 levels.

The star melting pot that suddenly appeared after the upgrade is even higher level.

But the configuration of many living facilities inside is only at the current stage of human beings.

At most, it's just a part of it, and it's not up to the technology of level 2 civilization.

The whole ship feels like it has been pieced together.

Zhang Xiaoman himself is not very good at this aspect.

He guessed that maybe the level of civilization that human beings recognize is not the real status quo in the universe at all, and it is itself wrong.

It may also be that the thing produced by the system will appear in a more suitable way due to the influence of the original guild establishment order.

For Zhang Xiaoman, the Shuguang like this one is almost perfect.

If there were more black technology, he would probably be like Sun Mingsheng and others, unable to even enter the door of the spaceship.

……

Two weeks later, Arrow.

This is a city called Hurghada, close to the Red Sea, 200 kilometers to the south is the small town of Qiqituk, where Zhan Nan once lived in seclusion.

Compared with the bad road conditions, Hurghada's sea transportation is relatively good.

The most important thing is that there is an airport near the sea. Apart from the capital Cairo, this is one of the cities with the most developed traffic in Eero.

At the same time, as the capital of the Red Sea Province, a famous tourist attraction and a resort city, Hurghada's beach projects are also very developed.

Here you can see tourists from all over the country, especially European and American tourists who love beach culture.

There are even many luxury hotels by the beach, which makes it impossible to feel that this is a certain country in Africa.

At this time, it is in front of a tavern by the beach of Kuli.

A white couple wearing sunglasses was stopped by the security guard at the door.

The man spread his hands in disbelief.

"Shet! I'm a tourist, I'm here to spend, why don't you let me in! Be careful, I'll go to your boss to complain! Let him fire you!"

Beside her, the scantily clad female companion also had a displeased expression.

In fact, here, the men's threats still carry a lot of weight.

Although Hurghada's tourism projects are not bad, they are all capitalists' affairs.

For ordinary local residents, life has not become much better.

The only difference is that hotels and restaurants here offer higher wages than other cities.

Being able to find a good job in those hotels is the dream of many people.

Therefore, generally as long as the customer reveals the meaning of similar complaints, the waiters will bow their heads and admit their mistakes.

No way, this is for life.

However, things don't seem to be going according to the man's expectations.

The two black bodyguards standing in front of the bar were completely unmoved and almost didn't even look at them.

One of them just glanced at the two people slightly, and then said with a straight face:
"Sir, I'm sorry, this place is not open to the public."

The white man was surprised at the pure English spoken by the other party, but suddenly he saw a group of five guys with the same white skin walking towards him.

"Wildfire Tavern? Looks like it's here."

The leader was holding a mobile phone in his hand, as if he was comparing some information.

"Hey buddy, is it open today, we want to go in and have a drink or two."

The man raised his head and said to the two black bodyguards.

The black bodyguard looked at them, then stepped aside and let the five people in.

"Watfa!?"

Seeing this scene, the man on the side couldn't help taking off his sunglasses and swearing.

"Why can they go in!? You are not open to the public! You have to give me an explanation!!"

"Sorry, they are members."

"Member!? Do you think I'm stupid? Those people just came here for the first time! You're discriminating! I'm going to the consulate, you wait for me!"

The man was furious.

The black bodyguard was still very calm, as if he didn't care about the threat of the person in front of him.

The man vented, as if thinking of something, his voice stopped immediately.

He looked at the female companion beside him, then at the two big men, and when he thought of the five men who had gone in before, he suddenly had a glimmer of understanding in his heart.

"Oh... I see, no wonder you don't let me in, it turns out that this is a gay bar!"

His words were so loud that several pedestrians passing by stopped to stop.

At this moment, even the two black bodyguards who had been as stable as Mount Tai couldn't help but twitch their mouths.

There is an urge to hit someone.

Fortunately, their professional professionalism allowed them to suppress their hands that were about to move, so that no brilliant flowers bloomed on each other's faces.

Seeing them like this, the man thought he had hit the mark, and immediately showed a complacent look.

"Haha, you are begging me to go in now, and I won't even go!"

Some nearby residents have actually discovered the change of ownership before, and everyone didn't care at first.

After all, it was just an inconspicuous small bar on the side of the road, and usually no one would pay much attention to it.

At most, there is only a small group of customers who often come here to consume, and find that this place is not open to the public.

Now, with the man making such a fuss, it also aroused the interest of the onlookers.

"It turns out that this is a gay bar. I said why it is suddenly closed to the public after changing the owner recently."

"Yeah, I was surprised at the beginning. Every day there are big and three rough men running in, but when I wanted to go last time, I was stopped outside. They are all gay..."

"Tsk tsk, it's a pity that such a good bar, I used to come to it often, but now it seems that I don't have the guts to go in again..."

"..."

The whispers of passersby sounded from time to time, making the two bodyguards guarding the gate feel goose bumps all over their bodies.

Hu Peng and Xun You walked into the room in such an atmosphere.

They couldn't figure out why the people around them looked at them with such weird eyes.

"Dog, are we in the wrong place? Is this the bounty tavern we built?"

Hu Peng asked his friends around him with some uncertainty.

Xun You also had a puzzled expression.

"That's right, Wildfire Tavern, the name has been changed."

He said, and Hu Peng came to the bar, and asked one of the bartender-looking men:
"What's the matter with those people outside? Just surrounded there, don't you need to go out and drive them away?"

The bartender was polishing a glass.

Hearing the two people asking questions at this time, they glanced outside through the long corridor and the translucent door curtain, and then said in a nonchalant tone:
"Oh, they may be customers who want to come in for a drink. Recently, we have changed the entrance here. Many people thought it was an ordinary bar. They wanted to come in, but they were stopped outside. There are so many It's going to be a mess like it is now."

"Oh? Does this happen often?"

"Not often. After all, the two brothers John and Cruise will basically solve all the problems when they go there. Occasionally, there will be one or two hard-headed ones. In the end, they will be beaten and then leave obediently."

Hu Peng also asked aloud:

"If that's the case, how did the two people at the door tell the difference between ordinary customers and bounty hunters? Wouldn't they stop the wrong person?"

The bartender hung up the glass and replied:
"You can't be mistaken. Both John and Cruise are veteran hunters. If they hadn't lost a leg in a mission, they wouldn't come here to look at the gate now."

When the two of Hu Peng heard this, they both turned their heads and looked in the direction of the gate in surprise. They didn't expect that the two of them had prosthetic limbs.

"Don't worry, even if each loses a leg, facing those so-called gangsters, they can beat several of them by themselves."

The bartender seemed to have guessed the doubts of the two, and explained something casually.

"Don't worry, with them here, no one can sneak in. Those ordinary people and bounty hunters, they only need one glance to tell."

After he finished speaking, he stretched out two fingers to point to his own eyes, then to Hu Peng and Xun You.

"My name is Paul, both of you. I think it's your first time here. Is there anything I can do to help? Are you going to have a drink, accept a mission, or hand in a mission?"

Hearing what he said, Hu Peng immediately became interested and asked:

"Oh? Any recent tasks? Where should I check?"

Paul wiped his hands, then took out a large tablet computer from under the table, and handed it to the two of them.

"This is the task recently released by our tavern. There are some entrustments from other employers. If you haven't registered yet, you can register first."

Hu Peng took the tablet and looked at it. He was very familiar with the program in it.

After all, he found someone to make it, and he was considered a half-developer.

Now, what is displayed on the tablet is an interface of the mission hall.

Most of them are tasks from bounty taverns, and some employers spend extra money to improve the ranking of private employment.

"Temporary task: C-level, investigate the anomaly in the sewer of Bari City, Gaul, and the bounty is 300000."

"Temporary task: Class C, investigate the mutant beasts that appeared near the town of Qiqituk, the bounty is 300000."

"Temporary task: C-level, investigate the mutant beasts that appeared in Hansen Park in the United States, bounty: 800000."

"Long-term task: A-level, hand in the corpse of the mutant beast, the bounty will fluctuate according to the strength and integrity of the mutant beast."

"..."

These are all tasks provided in the Wildfire Tavern. After clicking in, you can view detailed information about the content.

In addition, there are many private or organizational employment tasks, most of which are entrusted with protection and suppression of bandits.

Of course, the style follows the bounty hunter's usual standard of doing things, and will not issue tasks that violate the laws of the local government.

This is also the difference between bounty hunters and mercenaries.

Mercenaries are the type who can do anything for money.

Bounty hunters have a more bottom line and will not do things outside the law.

Because this profession originated in Europe in the Middle Ages at that time, it was a group of people used by the Holy See to hunt down fugitives, and the word bounty is also a translated name.

In fact, according to the meaning of the original word at the time, only the money obtained by accepting employment through legitimate sources can be called "reward".

Other gold coins obtained in violation of local laws are nothing more than ordinary rewards.

Not to mention the word "bounty", so naturally it is not a bounty hunter.

Therefore, many bounty hunters look down on mercenaries, and they hate others who confuse them with mercenaries.

Now, the tavern formed by the wildfire team provides a meeting place for this group of bounty hunters.

Of course, it's impossible to do this with just a few people in the Wildfire team.

Behind them, there is a huge organization called the Star Alliance as support.

At this time, an off-road vehicle suddenly stopped outside the tavern, and several burly men got out of the vehicle.

Two of them walked to the trunk and lifted out a huge box from inside.

The appearance of these people made the group of onlookers outside reaffirm the fact that this is a gay bar.

However, the big guys obviously didn't intend to stay at the door any longer. They lifted up the boxes and walked straight into the Wildfire Tavern.
