I will hunt down this world

He stepped on the gunman's face, crushed it, then took out a piece of cloth from his arms, pressed it firmly on the back of the finger tiger, and rubbed the animal's head forcibly.

"I'm going to start looking for you, if I find you, you will die."

Chapter No.17 Welcome to Sin City

At nightfall the next day, the train arrived in Mingjing.

Mingjing, formerly known as Mingluo, is one of the large cities that has been relatively intact after experiencing the tragic "Battle of the End of Night".Because of its important geographical location, strategic position and complete urban infrastructure, it was established as the first core city after the war, that is, the capital in a popular sense. The night government is centered on this, radiating its power and power to the entire Shenzhou. rule.

Li Shun carried the suitcase and got off at Mingjing Station step by step. He was inconspicuous in the crowd, and he didn't look like a monarch hunter who dealt with two dead men.

The layout of Mingjing Station is grand, and the flow of people is insignificant. As soon as you leave the station, you can see the thoroughfare that runs through it vertically and horizontally. You can also see Mingjing’s landmark building [Wall of Night Sky] directly opposite. From a distance, you can see the prosperity of Liaoyuan Mingjing had a panoramic view.

At this time, the neon lights are first on, and the horses and horses are like dragons, creating a prosperous scene.Although Zhiye Mansion's sphere of influence and control have declined in recent years, it still maintains an absolute right to speak over its foundation, Mingjing. Since the 120th year of the Ming Dynasty, Mingjing is still the most prosperous metropolis in the world.

Li Shun followed the crowd into the largest city in China, watching all this with a cold eye.

With the information channel from the corona, he is very clear that under this prosperity, there is actually an indescribable darkness hidden, but it is covered up and suppressed by the Night Mansion, and most people have never seen it.

Just now on the train, he said to Lian Linxi, "Mingjing is a dragon's pond and a tiger's lair, even if he is a sun hunter, he will not go there to fulfill the contract if he has nothing to do." Lian Linxi misunderstood what he meant and thought he was saying that because Mingjing is The base camp of the Night Mansion, so it is very dangerous for the hunters of the guild.

But that's not what he meant.

The guild is like the rising sun, while Zhiye Mansion has been declining for decades. Now the two have become a rivalry between the north and the south. Both sides maintain an apparent balance. Zhiye Mansion will not ban guilds in Mingjing Existence, just like the guild will not prohibit the Yefu in its base camp [Lidu].

The guild also operates quite a lot of power in Mingjing, and hunters can even fulfill contracts here, but the expansion of power is strictly restricted.

The danger Li Shun said lies in the city of Mingjing itself.

He hails taxis wherever he goes.

"Master, go to the guild office."

"Okay. This is the young man's first visit to Mingjing? Where is he from?"

Looking at the state, Columbia University from all over the world are enthusiastic and talkative, and this one seems to be no exception.

"From Xicheng." Li Shun smiled.

"Oh, there is a very famous Qixia Peak in your place. I just went there last year."

Qixia Peak is known as the No. [-] peak in the south of the sky, and it is quite famous. It seems that the driver has really been to Xicheng.

After talking about the scenery of Xicheng for a while, the driver turned a corner and asked:

"Going to the guild in the middle of the night is a hunter. Is the young man going to Mingjing on business?"

"Small errand, get a reward of 8000 yuan. I have been squatting for more than half a month for this." Li Shun showed helplessness.

"Damn, these days, it's not peaceful everywhere, and it's really not easy to run around for a living. You're already doing well! Look at me, it's hard to find a hundred dollars after getting up early and working hard all day long!"

"Isn't it? It's difficult!" Li Shun said.

Sighing, the driver suddenly lowered his voice and asked:

"Is it killing monsters? I heard that the guild is not the same as Zhiye Mansion, it specializes in killing monsters."

"You guessed it right."

"Okay, good thing, these bastards deserve to be killed." The driver said angrily.

Li Shun could clearly feel the pleasure in the driver's words.

"It is said that as long as the moon is full, the monsters will become fierce and kill and eat people at every turn. I heard that several people were injured in the third area a while ago. They were all done by monsters who smuggled in from the west. They wanted to sneak in and eat them." people!"

The driver talked more and more vigorously, cursing and talking about the rumors of the conflict between monsters and humans, Li Shun nodded slightly and remained calm.

The so-called "west side" refers to the place where monsters live in Mingjing.

The north-south central axis where the landmark building [Wall of Night Sky] is located geographically accurately divides the city into two parts, east and west. Humans and monsters live in one east and one west according to this, dividing Mingjing into two parts , the central axis has become the natural moat that completely separates the ladyboy into two worlds.

Racial conflicts, this is where Ming Jing is really dangerous.

In China, the confrontation between humans and monsters has a long history. It can be traced back to hundreds of years ago, when the moon wheel just changed, causing the world to be overflowing with mysterious energy such as "spiritual energy".

The overflow of psychic energy made it impossible for the group of monsters hiding in the human world to hide themselves and expose themselves to the world. As a result, the two races began a long period of adaptation, integration and disputes.

Later, the Night Kingdom was established. This extreme monster country tried to conquer China, enslave humans, and launched a brazen invasion. Therefore, the Ye Mansion came into being and gathered all forces from humans, monsters, and mixed blood to fight against it, and finally won the victory. The victory of the "Battle at the End of Night" will be determined in China.

After the war, in order to unite the forces of all parties and consolidate power, the Zhiye Mansion adhered to the principle of co-governance by humans and monsters, and the two races coexisted peacefully, seeking common ground while reserving differences, and made Shenzhou peaceful for decades.

But the situation started to take a sharp turn for the third generation Ye Zhijun Mingming.

In the early days of Ming Ming's reign, he made great efforts to govern, boldly pioneered, and even made great strides forward in the unfinished business of the previous two generations, bringing the prosperity of Shenzhou to a new high.But as he grew older, he began to show extreme desire for power and control, and became a tyrant who constantly intensified the conflicts between the monsters and monsters, causing the world to be alienated from morality, and the night government was also in decline.

Finally, Ming Ming was assassinated in his later years.

There was no problem with the assassination of the tyrant, but the problem was that this third-generation Ye Ye Dajun was a monster.

His assassination directly detonated the racial conflicts that had always existed. All parts of China fell into chaos. Humans and monsters repelled and attacked each other. For a period of time, the strength of groups such as Wufangmen and guilds expanded rapidly, pushing the situation in China to its current state.

Now, in order to prevent the intensification of conflicts, the central night mansion controls the central axis area outside the wall of night sky, and sets up checkpoints to restrict the entry and exit of humans and monsters. This makes all the vicinity of the central axis a deserted area. It is hard to imagine such a thing It actually happened in the most prosperous city in China.

It can be strictly guarded against but breeds more hidden evils. The more forbidden, the more active it is, whether it is thought or behavior.

Racial conflicts are a hotbed for incubating extreme ideas. It is extremely dangerous to leave it alone. As for Mingjing, the hotbed is not enough to describe it. This place is basically a powder keg, with countless explosives buried underneath, which may blow everyone up at any time.

Just like this driver, everything he said were stories and rumors, and he himself had never seen a monster.This is normal. In a city like Mingjing where people and monsters are so divided, most ordinary people's concept of monsters only comes from public opinion, and many people have never seen any monsters for most of their lives.

But he just has a hatred for monsters, a kind of hatred that is inexplicable, but he thinks it is very correct, reasonable, and even just. He is a passionate and kind driver, and he may be a good husband and father. , His mentality and thinking became distorted.

The brighter the light, the deeper the darkness. All kinds of gray or black forces, based on the hotbed of extreme thoughts, are intertwined in the dark underground world of Mingjing.

Every day in this city, humans or monsters die from conflicts between the two clans, and humans or monsters disappear into the darkness inexplicably every day. Many people even try to ignite the pile of explosives, but their hands are firmly held by the Night Mansion That's all.

This is the capital of the Night Mansion, but it is also a city of utter crime.

But Li Shun didn't care much about these.

He is neither an incarnation of justice aiming at slaying demons, nor a freedom fighter fighting against human oppression. Those are too big and too far away for him to catch or manage. He is just a hunter, a man who only focuses on the prey in front of him. hunter.

The small iron box that seemed to be burning in his arms made him feel bad.

So tonight, he wants to have a good time.

Chapter 18 High-end hunters often appear as prey

Li Shun arrived at the office hall of the Mingjing Hunter's Guild.

Compared with the official titles such as Zhiyefu and Wufangtai, the style of the guild is more pragmatic, and the name of the branch is simply called the office hall of a certain place, which is very straightforward.

Dongmingjing, where human beings live, has eight divisions. The guild office is located in the second district [Zhaoming], next to the yamen of the Tianzui Division of the Night Mansion in Zhaoming District. It can be seen that the guild sent such a good neighbor.

After all, it is at the core of Yefu Mansion, and Mingjing's guild did not make the hall resplendent to smack Yefu Mansion's face. On the whole, it is a five-story obsidian-colored building with a minimalist industrial style, which is low-key and solid without losing its atmosphere.

It was already ten o'clock in the night, and the hall of the Walkable Meeting was still full of people, brightly lit, and loud laughter and curses could be heard from the road from time to time.

Hunters often travel around, eat and sleep in the open air, and from time to time they also accept some bloody contracts. When they return to the guild hall exhausted physically and mentally, it is like a tired bird returning to the forest. Here are all colleagues, so they can relax and laugh.

The guild also intends to create such a relaxed and free atmosphere, so the first three floors of any guild hall are the business acceptance area and the leisure area, that is, the combination of bars, restaurants, and bars, so that hunters can eat and release to their heart's content.

Of course, no one would want to make trouble in the hall, any guild hall has more than one senior hunter and about a hundred [guild administrators], and those who make trouble in the hall will be attacked by all the hunters present In short, this is a customary rule, unless you don't want to mess with it, you must abide by it.

Li Shun walked into the hall with a suitcase, looking around, there are many guys in strange clothes and even weird shapes, like him, he didn't carry a big sword in his hand, and he didn't have a mountain tiger on his back, but he was wearing a black windbreaker. An ordinary young man here won't attract anyone's extra attention.

The huge circular reception area occupies the center of the first floor, and there are about 20 receptionists receiving the hunters coming and going.

According to the regulations of the guild, hunters of Jinyao, Tuyao, and Muyao are low-level hunters, and all their affairs are handled on the first floor; hunters of Shuiyao and Huoyao are intermediate hunters, and there are specialists on the second floor to handle affairs for them; It is more advantageous to set it up for advanced hunters like Yueyao.

As for the Twelfth Sunday, they don't need to go to the hall to do anything, as long as they make a phone call or a message, a professional team will rush to them and take care of everything.

"Hello, what business do I need to do?" The female receptionist at the window showed a service-oriented smile.

"Settle the contract and receive the reward."

As Li Shun said, he took out a hard silver card from his pocket and put it on the tray handed by the waitress.

The guild equips each hunter with an identification card, which also has a saving function. In the guild hall, the needs of hunters can basically be fulfilled through this card.

"Okay, Mr. [Cang Xing], the employer has sent a receipt, the verification is correct, and the remuneration has been recorded."

"Transfer all the rewards for this time into black diamonds for me, and I want to withdraw cash."

"Okay, the ratio of guild gold coins to black diamonds is about 1000:1. After this reward is converted into black diamonds, there are a total of 251 pieces."

"Thank you. By the way, can I check the employer's profile?"

"I'm very sorry, the employer has high authority and has been anonymous, so you cannot view it."

This is a natural result, and Li Shun didn't expect to be able to find out the person hiding behind "Xiao" casually.

Naturally, it is impossible for him to forget such a deadly threat. This is the first existence that threatens the secret of the corona in ten years. It's uprooted.

Li Shun believed that this day would not be too far away, but right now, his thinking was very clear, what he wanted to hunt was another prey.

Behind the purple beast head emblem is a secret association with unpredictable strength, strict organizational structure, and infiltrating many major forces. They want to kill Lian Linxi more than Millennium Gong. The reason is unknown, but they are unwilling to reveal their true identity.

Because Li Shun shot on the train and indirectly saved Lian Linxi's life, this association has already set its sights on him, and specially sent two dead men to test his depth.

Now that the dead man is missing, the other party will definitely not let it go. With the hands and eyes of this association all over the five parties and guilds, as long as Li Shun shows any flaws, he will swarm towards him like a shark smelling blood.

It's just that they don't know whether Li Shun is food or a shark.

"Mr. Cang Xing, after completing this contract, you have met the promotion conditions. You can upgrade the hunter level from Muyao level to Watery level, and enjoy the benefits, privileges and new contract standards of Watery level. Do you need to do the promotion test in the future? "

The receptionist paused, then continued to smile and said:

"Of course, you can also put it on hold temporarily and wait for the psionic level to reach the forbidden position. At that time, you don't need to go through trials. Just show the corresponding psionic level in any guild hall, and you can upgrade the hunter registration to the water level."

In today's China, it is enough for the seven-day position to reach the forbidden position to stand out. No matter which organization or association, the strong in the forbidden position is the backbone, and the guild is no exception. The matching treatment, otherwise people will not be able to keep people.

When you reach the forbidden position, the water level is a matter of course, but some hunters who are not good enough but can’t reach the forbidden position want to upgrade in advance, enjoy the reception of the exclusive reception lady on the second floor, double the appearance fee by 2-5 times, weapons and armor A series of welfare benefits such as free maintenance are not impossible, and the promotion trial is prepared for this.

The so-called trial is to take the next contract that exceeds the current level in terms of difficulty, time limit, etc., and evaluate whether you are eligible to advance based on the degree of completion. There is only one chance to try. If you fail, you can only practice safely Raised the power level.

Li Shun nodded and said lightly:

"Please give me the list of contracts for the trial."

The lady receptionist looked up at him in surprise. The man in front of her was very knowledgeable, which was in stark contrast to his young face. Things like the "Contract List for Trials" were not known to many high-level hunters. The trained hunters will do the contract assigned by the guild without thinking.

Li Shun didn't care about the receptionist's thoughts, he took a long list of more than a dozen contracts, browsed it from top to bottom, and finally his eyes fell on one of them.

【Contract goal: find the missing person】

【发布日期：自明历120年9月1日；截止日期，9月7日】

[Target location: Ximingjing]

[Difficulty: Water Yao level]

[Permission limit: Huoyao level]

[Remuneration: Basic performance fee + 50w guild currency]

This contract was released about a week ago. Looking at the detailed information attached to the contract, we can see that there have been many disappearances in Mingjing recently. The missing people are all humans in the 20-30 age group, both male and female. The Sinner suspects that they are monsters. The crime has been filed for investigation, but there is still not much progress.

This is probably a contract issued by a relative of the missing person. Unable to wait for the news from the Secretary of the Sin, he rushes to the doctor in a hurry. Most people who are missing for more than seven days are considered hopeless, so the employer set a deadline.

Tomorrow is September 9th, and the contract will expire in 7 hours, but the case is still a pending case, and there is no point in accepting it.

But for Li Shun, this contract is exactly what he wants.

He went through all the procedures calmly, and when he turned around again, his calm and indifferent expression suddenly became a little anxious. After walking a few steps, he left the reception area, opened the door and entered a small bar.

The business of this bar is average tonight, and there will be no new customers for a few minutes, so when Li Shun pushed the door and triggered the doorbell, many eyes focused on him.

With a wry smile, he sat down at the bar, ordered a cup of tequila and took a sip, then got up and walked to the notice board next to the bar, and pasted the paper contract he just got on it.

The bulletin board in the bar was used by many hunters to recruit temporary teammates. Li Shun's move was undoubtedly to find teammates.

His actions caught the attention of some melon-eaters, and soon, before he could sit back and take a few sips of tequila, someone who had read the bulletin board came over with a look of gloating.

"Brother, what's the matter? Are you okay to accept this kind of contract?" The man who spoke was a man with a Mohawk cut, his ears were full of studs, and he looked very unorthodox.

"Don't mention it, Shuiyao Trial." Li Shun took a sip of his wine, "Draw a lottery, what a fuck."
