Hello, I am a witch, not an evil god

Shiro Kimura sucked in a mouthful of Liangpi, "Spokesperson? God's agent? This can be compared with the general, right?"

Matsukata Kano nodded, "It seems that the destiny has made you convert."

"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and catch up!"

"Don't worry, let's stop the ship and do maintenance before we go."

"Oh, why are you not in a hurry at this time?"

"It's not a matter of urgency. The most urgent thing is to understand what happened during our disappearance. I have already asked someone to repair the communication device on the ship. It will not be too late to leave after I understand the situation."

"Forget it, I'm really not in a hurry." Kimura Shiro waved his hand, "But I hope you hurry up, I don't want to stay on your wrecked boat for too long."

"Where is it broken? This is my favorite battleship! Even if you don't marry a wife, you must maintain her well!"

"She? You actually said 'her'? Could it be that you still regard the battleship as your wife?"

"Why? No? Why do I treat the boat as my wife?"

"It's not impossible, but the barrel of this ship is enough to plug your head, and your wife knows what you think?"

"Shut up! You're so annoying."

"..."

After all, he was going to get some money from the bounty received by Shenli Linyue. Shimogawa Kotaro is very polite to her now, and his smiling face makes people want to punch him in the face.

Shenli Linyue and Jiutiao Sanae were invited by him to the rest area to rest for a while, and the Fengyuan armored beast was taken to an open space not far away by his order to start the so-called "appraisal".

"My lord, I thought you were going to take this weird beast to a place where we couldn't see it for 'appraisal', but let us see it." Shenli Linyue said with a smile.

Kotaro Shimogawa laughed, "We are the shogunate army, how could we be allowed to do that kind of thing? We have to set an example for everyone, and we will not cheat the citizens of Inari."

Shenli Linyue was noncommittal.

At this moment, an 'appraiser' hurried over and whispered something in Shimogawa Kotaro's ear.

After hearing his words, Shimogawa Kotaro's face changed slightly, and then he left with the appraiser, and went to a place where Kamisato Linyue and Kujo Sanae could not see.

"What did you say? Are you sure?"

"My lord, I'm sure, it's absolutely true, that weird beast is not a small weird beast, but the 'Feng Yuan Jia Beast', one of the most threatening weird beasts!" The professional appraiser looked excited and trembling His hand represents his uneasiness, "After detailed judgment, we found that this Fengyuan armored beast may not be dead yet. This is a very valuable research object!"

"...Why are you doing such a detailed appraisal?" Shimogawa Kotaro was speechless, "Just make an appraisal, and you can just treat it as a cat or a dog."

"How can that be? In that case, the devil will be released accidentally." The appraiser explained, and then said excitedly: "My lord, this is an excellent research sample, I want to know how that lady witch can not kill the wind. In the case of the Yuanjia Beast, it will make it look like it is dead, and how to limit its ability."

"What do you want these for?"

"Take it to the research institute and study!" The appraiser's eyes ignited fighting spirit, "There are more than ten research institutes in our shogunate, but the output is less than one-tenth of a research institute. In the final analysis, Isn't it because we rarely get corpses and living bodies of strange beasts? So this cannot be let go!"

You don’t have the corpses of creepy beasts, isn’t it caused by serious corruption from top to bottom?I'm afraid there is a lot of bureaucracy in the research institute. If you don't do anything every day, you know how to cheat funds.

Kotaro Shimogawa thought to himself.

He didn't say it, but raised his hand to prevent the appraiser from continuing.

After the appraiser shut up, he said calmly: "Take everything slowly and don't worry. If your research institutes didn't produce results, could it be someone else's fault? Don't always think about throwing the blame away, think about it When you think about your own problems, you have to understand that a slap can't be answered."

"I……"

"Don't worry!" Kotaro Shimogawa interrupted the appraiser again, "I will try my best to help you get it, but, you know, the shogunate's finances are tight recently, and we got very little money this trip, so Ah, you have to be mentally prepared that you won't be able to agree."

"No, if this is also bought by the Mystic Council, then we won't be able to catch up with them. Is there still a need for the Institute to exist?" the appraiser hurriedly said.

"That depends on whether you have the courage."

"What do you mean?"

"Through extraordinary means..."

"I..." The appraiser gritted his teeth, "It's no problem, as long as I can take it... what should I do?"

"So so..."

"..."

------

"Are they going to discuss how to corrupt the weird beasts we've worked so hard to get?"

"should be."

This trip came here with the mentality of fishing, whether it was Shenli Linyue or Kutiao Sanae, they were all ready to deal with all unreasonable demands.

Depends on how unreasonable it is.

Shenli Linyue's plan is actually very simple.

That Fengyuan armored beast was actually not dead, she knew it.

Along the way, the body temperature of the strange beast was normal, and the body was not stiff. It looked like it was just in a coma.

At that time, if there is no agreement, let him go and run away, leaving the camp in fear all day long.

Or you can be kinder, take it out to the Secret Council, and then hunt a creepy beast from time to time and run around the door to piss them off.

After all, this is the headquarters of the shogunate, and Shenli Linyue and Kujo Sanae didn't say much, so as not to be seen through by others.

Waiting for a while in the rest area, Kotaro Shimogawa and the appraiser came back from a corner.

Kotaro Shimogawa smiled, "Sorry, I kept you waiting."

"It's been a long time, and I'm ready to go."

Kotaro Shimogawa's face froze, and he said with an embarrassed smile, "Haha, this lady witch really knows how to joke."

He came to Shenli Linyue and sat down opposite Kujo Sanae, and the appraiser sat next to him.

"After our strict identification, we have identified the strange beast killed by the two witches." Kotaro Shimogawa said.

After that, he looked at the appraiser and motioned him to speak.

A tangled look appeared on the appraiser's face, and then he took a deep breath to calm down, and said: "After our blood sampling and DNA database comparison, it is basically confirmed that this is an entry-level strange beast 'Little Sword Cat'. A small creepy beast similar to a wild cat, belonging to a straight-rank creepy beast, that is, the level that ordinary people can kill."

Kotaro Shimogawa took the appraiser's words and said: "According to the bounty distribution standard of the shogunate, after beheading the strange beast at this stage, you can get a 1000 yuan reward for bravery and a medal for bravery."

While talking, Kotaro Shimogawa stared at the expressions of Rinzuki Kamisato and Sanae Kujo. As a result, the expressions of the two seemed to be expected, and they were not moved at all.

He had no choice but to continue, "Of course, the two witches are definitely not satisfied with the price, and I think it is too low, but there is no way, after all, this is the rule set by the general, and it has been maintained for 50 years. Don't dare to violate it!"

As he spoke, Kotaro Shimogawa showed a helpless expression to increase the credibility of his words, dissatisfied with the rules of the shogunate.

If it were someone else, he would have already resonated with him, but what he was facing were two shrine maidens who knew the tricks.

Kujo Sanae directly confronted Linyue Kamisato in front of Kotaro Shimokawa and the appraiser and said in a low voice, "Sure enough, it's the same as what Linyue-chan guessed. The 'little sword cat' he mentioned is a small beast that looks a bit like the Fengyuan armored beast. The characteristic of the creepy beast is that it runs fast, can bite people, and can infect people with diseases when bitten. However, this kind of creepy beast is very fragile, and a stick can kill it if you grab it at the right time."

After a pause, she continued: "Speaking of which, this regulation was set 50 years ago, and 50 yuan 1000 years ago seems to be the annual salary of ordinary people."

"?"

Hey guys, the rewards haven't changed at all with inflation?

No wonder Kujo Sanae said that now all superhumans who want to fight weird beasts don't want to deal with the authorities.

As for the superhumans who don't rely on fighting monsters for a living, they don't even think about it.

But having said that, the difficulty of hunting these strange beasts is not high.

Judging from the difficulty of the Iron Devouring Bird shot down before and the Fengyuan Armored Beast now, at least Shenli Linyue thinks that the current price is...not bad, to be honest.

Just like those who poach wild animals, the value of ordinary wild animals is only a few thousand to tens of thousands.

Of course, the difficulty faced by poachers is the state's pursuit and fines. This is an additional difficulty, let alone.

If Kutiao Sanae hadn't mentioned the comparison between 50 years ago and now, she would not have realized that fighting monsters was once so valuable.

This is also the reason why Shenli Linyue felt that the price of the shogunate was a bit low, but he didn't think it was much lower.

But the real situation seems to be...isn't it?

Shenli Linyue felt something was wrong.

According to the appraiser, this Fengyuan armored beast is a so-called "little sword cat". Ordinary people can kill it casually, and then receive about one year's salary...

As for the others, the strange beasts that can receive more than ten times the bounty of the 'Little Sword Cat', such as the Iron Devouring Bird, the Fengyuan Armored Beast...should be more harmful, right?

Shenli Linyue felt something was wrong, but couldn't tell.

After thinking about it carefully, she could only attribute it to the fact that these creepy beasts had other dangers, such as spreading terrible plagues, and their actions would cause serious damage, and other characteristics she didn't know about.

Kujo Sanae didn't know much about it. She said that the abilities of the strange beasts are ever-changing and cannot be unified.

If you have a chance... look for a book like The Encyclopedia of Strange Beasts.

Now let's see what the shogunate master has to say.

If it were another extraordinary person, he might be fooled by the appraiser, or Shenli Linyue might be fooled if he came alone.

But fortunately, she brought an 'encyclopedia' Kujo Sanae.

"This is 'Little Sword Cat', isn't there something wrong with your identification?" Shenli Linyue pointed at the corpse of the Fengyuan armored beast not far away.

The appraiser panicked, but then he calmed down and said angrily, "Are you looking for trouble on purpose? Do you want the money?"

"If it's really 'Little Sword Cat', I definitely want it, so what if it's not?"

"If not, I'll tip you a thousand, are you satisfied?"

Shenli Linyue pouted at Jiutiao Sanae, "Sanae-chan, come on!"

Kujo Sanae gave her a blank look, stood up slowly, came to the Fengyuan armored beast, and tore off a strand of the Fengyuan armored beast's hair, only to see a scale growing rapidly on that place.

She tore off the scales with ease.

The girl brought the hair and scales and put them on the table in front of the four of them, "Scales and hair, the only one that can have these two things at the same time, is the Abyssal Beast. Does this 'appraiser' still say that this is a" Little sword cat'?"

In order not to pay 1000 yuan, the appraiser could only bite the bullet and said: "Who told you that the little sword cat doesn't have scales? Creepy beasts are prone to ever-changing things, and it's normal when they mutate into scales."

"Hey, why don't you just listen to me." Kotaro Shimogawa said, "This appraiser is an expert I specially invited from the Institute of Creepy Beasts. There may be something wrong with what he said, but I think he is a knowledgeable person. Experts don't have to lie to us."

When the person in charge spoke, he used 'we', intending to put him on the same front as the two witches to gain favor.

"This lady witch should have read books on the identification of strange beasts, and what you two said makes sense.

"How about this, I'm the master, on the basis of the official reward, I will give you another 1000 yuan in my own name, a total of 2000 yuan, plus the medal of the shogunate, how about it? For a strange beast like the little sword cat , this is already a good bonus.

"By the way, I'll add another 1000 yuan to ask you how to stun the little sword cat without killing it. How about a total of 3000 yuan? This is already a reward amount that most weird beasts can't match."

"It's not good." Shenli Linyue said indifferently: "This is not a 'little sword cat', but a terrifying Fengyuan armored beast."

Although there is nothing terrible to see, it is better to exaggerate.

The appraiser couldn't help but said: "The combined ages of the two of you are not as old as me. I have studied strange beasts for decades. Is it possible that I don't know as much as you two underage witches?"

"Forget it." Shenli Linyue stood up, "I think if I sell this to the Secret Council, they should be able to offer a better price, so... I won't sell it to you!"

After finishing speaking, she and Kujo Sanae stood up, walked over to lift the Fengyuan armored beast, and were about to leave.

"stop!"

But at this moment, the appraiser suddenly spoke, and a group of soldiers immediately surrounded the exit.

"To be tough?" Shenli Linyue's heart skipped a beat.

This is so meow, ready to grab it?

Is this special meow the military?Are you sure you're not a hooligan?

Just when Shenli Linyue was thinking about how to get out, there was a sudden commotion from the direction of the gate, followed by a bang, and the iron gate flew out.

I saw a group of muscular men rushing in from outside, and then a voice came from behind them——

"Corporal Kotaro Shimogawa, what are you going to do to our distinguished guest from the navy?"

------

Little knowledge: The little octopus caught by Miss Miko in the back mountains and rivers is the "36-bearded giant beast" suppressed by Kujo Sanae's father, Kujo Sack. Because he couldn't beat it, he abandoned his huge body and turned into a little octopus to escape.Namely: all monsters have a small core body.

Two-in-one bounty plus more (9-10/26)
