Trickster Hunter

Chapter 113 Lihuo

"The main goal of the reformists is to 'de-infected'." Yang Lian said, "They believe that humans should rely on their own strength to fight against strange creatures, rather than over-relying on you infected hunters. In their eyes, the infected are always aliens... You may think this is a kind of discrimination, but it is true."

"Rely on human power?" Sun Hang thought about it, and the only thing he could think of was strange equipment like "Killing", but strange equipment still relies on the power of strange creatures, and qualified people can only be regarded as a "pendant", and qualified people have been in contact with strange equipment for a long time. Touch, I am afraid that in the eyes of these reformists, there is no difference between them and infected people...

"Weird equipment and qualified people are the initial attempts of the reformists... But in this report meeting, she seems to want to propose a new development direction." Yang Lian said, "This Professor Deng is very disgusted with weird things and infected people, and she is even extremely resistant to the proposal of weird equipment... If it weren't for the fact that the border defense of the Xiazhou Federation still needs you hunters to support it, I guess she would have proposed to eliminate all infected people a long time ago."

"Has she been stimulated by something? Why does she hate infected people so much?" Sun Hang asked curiously.

"You guessed it right..." Yang Lian nodded, "Her mother was once the direct person in charge of a monster hunter, just like my sister, but the monster hunter's infection process went out of control and tore her mother into pieces. Professor Deng, who was only eleven years old at the time, witnessed this scene with her own eyes. Since then, she has become a staunch member of the reformists."

"I see."

Sun Hang suddenly felt that it was not unreasonable for Professor Deng to become so extreme... The fact that she can sit in this position now shows that she is an extremely rational person... If it were someone with a more impulsive personality, they would probably have become extremists who specialize in hunting infected people.

"But the problem is," Sun Hang said, "Since they want to reform, how do they plan to change? If the profession of monster hunter is directly abolished, the territory of the federation should shrink rapidly in just a few months, right? Unless the people at the top who hold the decision-making power have been kicked in the head by a donkey, they will agree with the reformists' policy, right?"

"Then what do you think is the most important thing for the reformists?" Yang Lian looked at Sun Hang and asked back.

Sun Hang thought for a moment and said, "An alternative solution that can replace the infected hunters and solve the invasion of strange creatures. This solution must be low-cost, safe and reliable, and highly versatile and productive. All of the above points are indispensable."

For the current Xiazhou Federation, the strange hunter is undoubtedly the best solution... Even if the infected hunters are time bombs, only their power can fight against all kinds of strange creatures-what is the saying on the Internet? "Use magic to defeat magic."

"What she is introducing now is the latest solution." Yang Lian took off an earphone and handed it to Sun Hang, "You can listen to it."

Sun Hang took the earphones that still carried the other person's body temperature and put them into his ears.

Professor Deng's nonsense lasted for seven or eight minutes. She kept emphasizing the disadvantages of loose management of infected people, granting various privileges to strange hunters, and the threat of infected people to human society. After the big guys sitting in the audience began to show impatience, she waved her arm and asked two researchers to push a small cart onto the stage.

"Everyone, this is the result of our seven-year research. I believe it is enough to change the current situation of the human world!" Professor Deng said confidently, "Even... in the future, we may have the capital to counterattack the lost ground!"

Counterattack the lost ground?

Sun Hang's mouth moved... He suddenly felt that this woman's rhetoric was very similar to that of a pyramid scheme scammer.

But the reason why the pyramid scheme scam can fool so many people shows that this rhetoric is still very effective...Sun Hang noticed that there was a slight discussion in the audience.

Whether people believe it or not, as long as it can cause discussion and controversy, she may be able to win her supporters-especially after the reformists can come up with some research results with practical value.

"I think that infected people and weird things should be regarded as a quantifiable resource rather than combat power." Professor Deng walked quickly to the cart and pulled down the cloth covering the cart.

On the cart was a very common 9mm caliber pistol and a silver-white metal rack. In the groove of the rack, there were four bullets of different colors.

"Bullets?" Sun Hang was a little confused... After seven years of research, they only developed four bullets?

Through the screen, he could vaguely feel that the bullets were a little weird, but he couldn't tell where the weird feeling came from for a while.

Professor Deng picked up the pistol from the cart and pushed the first red bullet into the magazine.

With the "click" of the spring inside the sleeve, the bullet was loaded, and Professor Deng also showed a smug smile on his face.

"Please send the 'target' up."

The floor on one side of the platform cracked, and a cage made of special alloy rose from the ground. Inside the cage was a strange-looking creature - it looked like a mixture of a wild boar and a hippopotamus, with festering pus all over its body. Sun Hang even felt that he could smell the disgusting stench through the screen.

"Bing 499 'Immortal Rotten Beast'." Professor Deng introduced, "Everyone here must be familiar with this strange creature. It appeared in Siberia in 4698 of the lunar calendar. After being captured, it has been under the control of Tianshu. Since the tower has been contained, its greatest feature is its near-infinite self-recovery. A project team once conducted an experiment. They imprisoned Bing 499 in a nuclear test site and attacked it with nuclear weapons - Bing 499 was burned to ashes almost instantly. But within six seconds, it returned from ashes to its original appearance."

"What kind of Xiaoqiang can't be killed?" Sun Hang couldn't help complaining.

"Don't make any noise, keep reading." Yang Lian said.

"But we found a way to kill it." Professor Deng raised his pistol and pointed it at Bing 499 in the cage. "What you see now is not the original Bing 499, but the sky." The secondary monster copied by the Shuta using Bing499's meme... It almost perfectly inherits the characteristics and abilities of Bing499. Among the many clones, this clone is numbered 'A093' It’s the one closest to the body.”

Professor Deng paused for a moment, then continued: "The bullet I am loading in the magazine is called 'Lihuo', and its internal charge comes from three different kinds of magic..."

"Bang!"

The gunshot rang out, and the bullet hit the clone of Bing 499 in the cage. The next second, black flames ignited on the clone. In just ten seconds, the clone was burned to ashes, never to be seen again. recovery.

There was a lot of discussion in the audience - this time, the people sitting below no longer deliberately suppressed their voices. Everyone could see that this shot had successfully aroused the interest of most people present.

"One more thing, I must make it clear to you that the raw materials required for 'Lihuo' are the same as Bing 499, and can be copied using existing technology... In other words, it has the capacity to Productive.”
