Alien Relic Hunter.

Chapter 3 Temporary Squad
However, the Hound is not wrong at all. Weapons are indeed subject to great limitations in the ruins. It is not that weapons are useless, but in many cases, fighting will not solve the problem, but will make things change. more trouble.

In fact, many hunters are not combat-specialized classes - engineers, geologists, biologists, or doctors like Ivan tend to be more popular than dedicated fighters when teaming up.

"Zoligetu, he is very strong." A short and strong man with braided hair smiled honestly at Ke Lan, "I was the one who pulled you back on the plane before."

"Thank you, if you need anything, please feel free to speak up. As long as I can do it, I will do my best." Ke Lan nodded in greeting. Although he was almost concussed by the other party, it was a life saver. kindness.

"No, no, I have to thank you for taking the protective suit back. Otherwise, none of us will survive." Zoriget waved his hand. Compared with the previous three people, this Mongolian man looks better Get along a lot.

Ke Lan subconsciously moved closer to Zorigtu. For some reason, he always felt that the hound seemed to be hiding a lot of his abilities. It was absolutely impossible to become a solo hunter of this level by relying on the ability of smell alone.

"Jiang Lian." She was the only woman among the seven. She was wearing a dress with very little fabric. Her exposed skin was covered with intricate and exquisite tattoos. Even her cheeks were stabbed with a blooming flower. rose flower.

"I seem to... have heard of this name..." Leighton said thoughtfully, staring at Jiang Lian's face.

"That's, that's it... The North Nine District is very famous... I heard that you only need [-] credit points..." Hound's face suddenly showed a wretched smile, and he looked up and down the other's body with unconcealed eyes. .

Ke Lan was stunned for a moment, a little stunned. Although the income of the hunter industry is not very stable, it will not be used to live by selling that...

"Your news is a bit outdated. The current market price is [-] credit points, but...if it was you, [-] would be enough." Jiang Lian didn't get angry, but twisted his waist and walked in front of the hound. .

"Be careful, old dog!" Layton, who thought he was on the opposite side of the hound, suddenly stepped forward and stretched out a mechanical arm to block the hound in front of him——

"Ding!"

There was a flash of silver light, and a crisp metal collision sound came. There was an inconspicuous white mark on the mechanical arm. A steel needle glowing blue and purple bounced off and fell to the ground.

"It's boring." Jiang Lian shrugged, "This kind of poison will kill you."

"Is this the concentrated PSP toxin?" Ivan had already picked up the steel needle at some point, "You extracted it from algae?"

"You already know and ask me?" Jiang Lian replied.

"What is that?" The hound thought he had some research on toxicology, but he had never heard the name of this toxin.

"An ancient neurotoxin, derived from algae on the earth... I thought specimens of this thing could only be seen in the research institute..." Ivan sighed in a low voice.

"If this needle sticks in me, will I die?" the Hound asked with lingering fears.

"No, the dose is not fatal, but at least it will cause hemiplegia, incontinence, etc... I suggest not making such jokes in the future, no one wants to go on the road with a burden." Ivan turned around and handed the steel needle It was also given to Jiang Lian.

"As long as he can keep his mouth shut."

The hound glanced at Jiang Lian angrily, and quickly set his eyes on Ke Lan: "It's your turn, our hero."

"I don't dare to be a hero. If I can get out alive, I will do as much as I can." Ke Lan smiled, "My name is Ke Lan, a professional hunter, and I have no skills."

"No ability?" Layton repeated these five words unhappily. "What does it mean to have no ability? It's all in this situation. Everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, so why hide it?"

"To be honest, I belong to the kind of character who knows everything but has no skills. I know a little bit of everything, but it's only limited to a little bit of fur." ​​Ke Lan spread out his hands.

"Understood, all-rounder, right? You are too modest." The Hound smiled and patted Ke Lan's shoulder, "People like you are eager to get it when forming a team."

Ke Lan can only laugh at the flattery of the hounds. Compared with the team, the all-round hunter is more suitable for singles. There is no other reason. People like Ke Lan have a very embarrassing position in the team— - He can be in any position, but he is not as good as a talent specializing in this position. More often, he is just a dispensable replacement candidate.

And when a team has attrition, the first thing they need to consider is not to fill the position, but to retreat immediately. This is the way of survival for elite hunters.

"The last little brother is left." The Hound turned and looked to the side.

A young man wearing an old standard armor sat quietly cross-legged on a stone, with his head lowered, holding a standard war sword that was as worn as the armor—from the time Ke Lan woke up until now, He remained in this posture and didn't move, and he didn't say a word.

The man seemed very withdrawn—that was his first impression of the other six, and it was for that reason that the Hound put him last.

"Asano Akira, a retired soldier, his specialty... let's say it's swordsmanship." The young man raised his head and said slowly.

"Retired soldier? I think you are only in your early twenties, right? According to the army's regulations, once you have served, you are not allowed to retire before the age of 35... Besides, your armor is an old model more than 100 years ago, right? The armor is also very worn, and the number and rank of the troops on the armor have also been erased, so it must have been bought in a second-hand market, right?" Identity and strength, such a person will often become an unstable factor in the team. No one knows what accidents will happen in the next exploration process. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a time bomb.

Compared with Asano Akira, people like Jiang Lian are more reassuring.

In addition, there is another point that only Ke Lan has not noticed - before on the transport plane, when everyone pulled him into the cabin together, this Asano Akira was the only one other than the immobile Leighton. An indifferent person in his seat.

"If you want to prove that you didn't lie, I suggest you report the number and organization of your original troop." Ivan interjected.

Among the six, Layton and Hound were both retired from the army. As long as Asano Akira can say these things, they can fully speculate whether what he said is true or false.

"I am indeed a retired soldier, but due to confidentiality regulations, I cannot say these things."

"Fart!" The Hound suddenly scolded, "It's not like I haven't been a soldier! Do you think it's still the old era? The number is not a military secret, and there are no messy confidentiality regulations. I think you just can't make it up! I think we absolutely can't take this kid, leaving him here and letting him fend for himself is the safest decision!"

"But I can tell you why I retired." Asano said, pointing to his eyes, "I'm blind."

Only then did Ke Lan realize that although Akano Asano kept looking at them, there was no focus in his eyes - he was really blind.

"Blind? Can a blind be a hunter these days? Then I think sows can climb trees!" The Hound was also stunned, but his mouth was not polite at all.

"I won't be a burden." Asano Akira still said in the same calm tone as at the beginning, and he didn't seem to be angry at all for the Hound's questioning and sarcasm.

"I think I can bring him, he shouldn't be a burden." At this time, Ke Lan spoke.

"why?"

"Done of us notice...he's blind before he says it himself?"

As soon as those words came out, the other five fell silent—that's right... not to mention anything else, when he crawled out of the wreckage of the transport plane, Akano Asano didn't act like a blind man at all, not only did he not seek Anyone's help can get away no slower than others.

"Are you really blind?" Before the hound could finish speaking, he had already pulled out the dagger from his waist and stabbed Akano Asano towards the door, stopping at a distance of less than five centimeters from the tip of the opponent's nose.

The strong wind brought by the dagger slightly swayed a strand of hair in front of Akano Asano's forehead, but his eyes were still dazed and unfocused, and he didn't even blink.

"Okay, but you have to keep up. If you fall behind, no one will come to pull you." The Hound pouted and put away the dagger.

"Thank you." Asano Akira nodded.

Ke Lan watched the whole process of the Hound's attack on Asano Akira, and he didn't stop it, but judging from the latter's performance, he really couldn't see anything, otherwise, even if his expression was calm, In the face of the sharp weapon coming straight from the stab, it is impossible for the eyes to change slightly.

There was another discovery that Ke Lan didn't mention - the sword in Asano Akira's arms and the armor he was wearing were obviously a complete set, but in the Ark's army, there was no one. The troops have been equipped with such standard weapons.

In Ke Lan's cognition, the most common melee weapons in the army are multi-functional daggers and shovels, followed by ram nails and chainsaw swords mounted on the mecha... This kind of shape is similar to the sword of the Eastern samurai sword. It has been eliminated as early as the old era, and it can only be seen in the collectible market and fight club.
