Electromagnetic Tyrant

Chapter 92
Before dawn, Ji Xinghuo rushed back to the gate of Midpoint Fortress.

Many bounty hunters have already returned, waiting to enter the city after dawn.

Ji Xinghuo observed it, and most of them returned empty-handed.

Even the most seasoned bounty hunters don't necessarily find the right kill every day.Sometimes, I often lurk for several days, observe secretly, step on the spot, and make detailed plans, but in the end I still get nothing, and even take my own life.

There were also bounty hunters with wounds, but they couldn't hide the joy on their faces, obviously they had succeeded.

Suddenly, someone approached.

The other party covered his face, only showing a pair of eyes, lowered his voice and asked: "Brother, is there any stock?"

Ji Xinghuo hesitated before replying: "There are two tail tips."

"Sell it or not?" The other party asked immediately, with a look of impatience, "I can pay twice the price of the bounty!"

Ji Xinghuo immediately understood the other party's intention.

The purpose of this person is to buy hero points from other bounty hunters at high prices and hand them over to the bounty office in exchange for points.

Generally, they are rich but not powerful aliens who dare not go out to fight the Fomalhaut clan, but they want to save face, so they use money to buy hero points, and then go back to Earth to show off and pretend to be aggressive.

Those who do this kind of thing are basically the children of rich families. If there is demand, there is a market, and a gray industrial chain has even been formed.

Officially, this private buying and selling of loot is banned.

Moreover, regulations have been issued that if you take the initiative to expose the spoils after selling them, you can get a bounty of the same price and double the points.

The buyer who is exposed will recover the bounty, revoke the bounty hunter qualification certificate, and clear the points.

However, this kind of thing is repeatedly prohibited.

The buyers are all really rich people, and they will not come out to buy by themselves, but send others to buy, and they have to hide their identities and make multiple transfers.

Bounty hunters are extremely contemptuous of this.

However, faced with the lure of double or more income, some bounty hunters still sell their loot privately.Anyway, for them, the hero points are neither too much nor too little, and it is impossible to rank at the forefront of the scoreboard, and selling some will have no effect.

Really powerful bounty hunters attach great importance to points, so they are naturally unwilling to sell them.

Therefore, point dealers usually find unknown bounty hunters to buy their loot, such as Ji Xinghuo.

"Not for sale."

Ji Xinghuo immediately shook his head.

"I'll triple the price." The other party continued to increase the price, obviously not short of money.

Ji Xinghuo saw that he was not a bounty hunter, nor a real buyer, but just a point dealer, so he ignored him.

Seeing that Ji Xinghuo was unmoved, the other party had no choice but to leave.

Before dawn, he went around contacting returning bounty hunters in the dark, and Ji Xinghuo watched coldly. After contacting a few bounty hunters, the other party still opened their business and made a deal.

There are several points dealers like him.

They should have gone out of the city together with the crowd when it was dark, but instead of going out to hunt, they hid somewhere and came back before dawn.

The vast majority of bounty hunters say no.

There are also bounty hunters with a violent temper who directly scolded: "Get out!"

"leave me alone."

"Damn it! You bastard!"

Every time he was scolded, the face-covering points dealer didn't dare to fight back, and ran away in despair.

Ji Xinghuo shook his head and stopped paying attention.

Soon after, it finally dawned. Following a burst of steam boiler power transmission, the heavy city gate slowly rose. The bounty hunters passed through the guards to check their identities one by one, and only after confirming that there were no enemies disguised and deformed did they let them go.There are six gates in Midpoint Fortress, but only three are regularly opened to allow bounty hunters to enter and exit.

The first thing the bounty hunters do after they enter the city is to turn in their spoils and receive rewards and points.

If you don't gain anything, you don't have to go.

Ji Xinghuo noticed that only about one-third of the bounty hunters went to the bounty office in the second-tier city like himself.

On the way, everyone's faces were happy, and they were in a good mood.

"Brother Shi, seeing you smiling so happily, you must have gained a lot last night, right?" A bounty hunter asked.

"Not much." The bounty hunter who was being questioned had a reserved expression, "There are only three tentacles. Luckily, I ran into them."

"Including Gorakak's alien species, the income is [-], right? Awesome!"

"Hahaha, it's okay." He asked back with a look of color on his face, "By the way, how is your harvest?"

"Generally, there are only two scalps and four or five tail tips."

The smile on the bounty hunter's face froze, and it took a few seconds before he cursed: "You bastard, you just wanted to show off to me..."

"Hahaha, that's right!"

Ji Xinghuo on the side also laughed out loud, attracting the attention of the two of them.

The bounty hunter named Brother Shi looked Ji Xinghuo in the eyes, and asked curiously: "This brother is very strange, I haven't seen him before."

"I just came to Midpoint Fortress." Ji Xinghuo replied as he walked.

"Looking at your appearance, you also gained something last night?"

"Yeah." Ji Xinghuo nodded, "It's okay."

Brother Shi saw that he didn't talk too much, so he didn't ask any more questions.

One is that it is impolite to ask because of unfamiliarity;

The second is that Ji Xinghuo said that he just came here, and it would be pretty good to have something to gain, but there will definitely not be much.

When they first came here, they had to fight their lives several times to get one or two tail tips. Later, they were born and died many times, and their strength improved, and the harvest gradually increased.

Soon arrived at the reward office.

Yesterday, when Ji Xinghuo came to apply for the qualification certificate, there were not many people in the hall, but today it was very lively, with hundreds of bounty hunters queuing up to claim the bounty with their trophies.Many bounty hunters are familiar with each other, greeting each other and discussing the situation last night.

Ji Xinghuo waited in line alone.

Suddenly, someone's conversation caught his attention.

"Last night there was a lot of movement at the No. 135 sentry tower. I saw a legendary Dagon man from a long distance, leading a large number of people to search, and dispatched several patrol teams." A bounty hunter said with a smile on his face. I was afraid, "Fortunately, I reacted quickly and slipped away."

"I noticed it too, but I don't know what happened." Someone next to him confirmed the situation.

"The same goes for Camp East 13."

A bounty hunter in the line said: "I figured out a secret whistle, and was about to do it, but they were suddenly transferred away. I quietly followed behind, listening to the orders they received, like a whole patrol The team was killed by someone..."

"No wonder the patrols suddenly became denser."

"I am in ambush at Height 40 last night. I saw several patrols passing by, more frequently than usual, but in the dark, they all stopped coming out again."

"It's obviously different from usual, something must have happened."

The bounty hunters discussed in a hurry, confirmed the news with each other, and quickly connected things together, getting closer to the truth.

"It's not like someone actually killed the patrol?"

"This should be."

"And there must be more than one patrol team, at least three or more." A senior bounty hunter analyzed: "The Fomalhaut tribe will not easily change their defense plan. The legendary Dagon people are dispatched, and there must be a Unexpected casualties."

The bounty hunters looked at each other, and someone shook his head and said, "No matter who it is, he is brave enough to attack the patrol."

"A man of high art is bold."

The person next to him laughed and said, "Kill an entire patrol team, and still be able to get away before the reinforcements arrive. At least he is a super alien, and he is a strong person on the ladder."

"How do you know it was done by one person, maybe it was a team!"

"Too……"

A bounty hunter concluded: "Last night was the first raid, and the Fomalhaut clan couldn't react, and the harvest was the biggest. It will not be so easy to attack the patrol again. The enemy will definitely design an ambush. If the bounty If the gold hunter dares to make a move, it will be dangerous."

Everyone is nodding.

The Fomalhaut clan is not a mindless monster, and there are many strong people, so there must be countermeasures to counter the bounty hunters here.

It's not that this kind of thing has never happened before. Either stop or be killed.

Ji Xinghuo listened the whole time without speaking.

These bounty hunters have rich experience. From their words, you can hear some useful things and help yourself.

The queue moved quickly, one by one the bounty hunters handed in their trophies and received their bounties.

Most people's bounties are only tens of thousands, and there are not many who exceed [-].

However, the bounty is only a part of the income. Hunting and killing the Fomalhaut clan and other species, as well as the enemy's weapons and equipment, are all a lot of income.

The most is a bounty hunter who ranks seventh on this month's scoreboard. He is a super shadow blade, and he took out more than [-] trophies in exchange for nearly a million bounties.

Finally it was Ji Xinghuo's turn.

He took out a heavy bag from his backpack, blood dripped out of it, and the staff couldn't help but change slightly when they took the bag.

The bounty hunter behind was also attracted, with suspicion in his eyes.

"so much?"

The staff poured out all the loot in the bag, and immediately, hundreds of bloody body parts covered most of the counter.

"Fuck!"

"There are so many!"

"hiss……"

All the bounty hunters present widened their eyes, and someone made a gasping sound, all of them were surprised by the large number of trophies.

The loot on the counter is not only plentiful, but also of high quality.

There are nearly [-] scalps of the Dagon people alone, and there are several plant cores of rattan spirits, accounting for a certain proportion.

The bounty hunters looked at the unfamiliar Ji Xinghuo, and their first reaction was the spoils they bought.

If you think about it carefully, you will know that it is impossible.

There are not many bounty hunters who are willing to sell their trophies. With such a large amount, it must take several days to buy at a high price. The organs on the counter are very fresh, apparently just cut off.

Moreover, the purchased loot is handed over in such a high-profile manner that it will definitely be investigated.

Those rich second generations who buy points with money only hand in a few trophies every day, and they dare to come when there are few people in the reward office.

Ji Xinghuo's behavior is completely inconsistent with that kind of person.

"I see!"

A bounty hunter suddenly called out, looking at Ji Xinghuo with eager eyes, "Brother, you were the one who wiped out several patrols last night, right?"
