Hello, I am a witch, not an evil god

As the largest institution to deal with extraordinary phenomena, the Mystery Council has become the object of expectation of many extraordinary people.

It is said that after a high-level meeting of the Secret Council, they decided to allocate a part of the funds of the Secret Council and use it as a bounty to distribute to people of insight who solve the strange beasts, so that they will not be chilled and keep their enthusiasm and blood.

Strictly speaking, after they take over this responsibility, the shogunate should cooperate with them and provide financial support, but in fact...

Yes, but only a little.The secret society will send 1000 yuan, and the shogunate will probably subsidize... 10 yuan?

Whether it was swallowed by some officials is not known.

"It's okay. The Secret Council only asks for beheading and no other requirements. This price...maybe a little low, but it's not that low. It's definitely better than nothing." Kujo Sanae comforted.

"How much is the bounty for solving the weird beast? Be specific." Shenli Linyue asked.

She doesn't know much about it.

Kujo Sanae said before that it was around 1000-10w, but this range is too large and too vague.

"Hmm... based on the iron-eating bird that Linyuejiang shot down... Let me do the math, the official bounty for a beast of this strength should be 1 yuan, deducting 40% of the tax, and report it 10% of the cost, 15% of the labor cost for changing hands, and about 25% of the political donations to officials... There should be 1000 yuan in hand. If you know the person in charge, you can get 3000 yuan. If you have a grudge against the person in charge...you can leave 500 yuan is considered to be a conscience of the official responsible for the report.”

"???"

Oh shit, so dark?

"I heard from my father that this is the first severe beating that every extraordinary person who can kill a strange beast independently will experience, so many extraordinary people don't want to deal with the shogunate officials very much."

"Aren't you afraid that no one will help you if you do this? Or will they dispatch extraordinary people to solve it by themselves?"

"...It is better to expect the shogunate to solve it than to place hope on the Secret Council. They will only feel that the problem is serious when the beasts cause a major disaster, but the loss at this time is already irreparable."

"Could it be that the shogunate strictly enforced the four-stage tactics?" Shenli Linyue asked.

"What are the four-stage tactics?"

"It's a four-stage approach to a crisis. Stage one, we say nothing happened; stage two, something might happen, but we'd better wait and see; stage three, maybe we should act, but we don't know what to do." I can't do anything; in the fourth stage, maybe I could do something at the beginning, but it's too late now, bow~"

Hearing Shen Li Linyue's explanation, Kujo Sanae fell into deep thought, raised his head after a while, and said in surprise: "I thought about the recent operations of the shogunate in response to various crises, and it really is like this!"

Shenli Linyue: "..."

Although I haven't encountered it yet, Shenli Linyue still knows that many strange beasts have special abilities, which can cause great troubles to the human world.

The iron-eating bird looks harmless to humans and animals, but it is the size of a raptor and eats metal. If it accidentally makes a big hole in the house and eats the steel bars inside, it will cause a huge disaster of the collapse of the building.

And the way the shogunate responded...

Maybe it would be a waste of time to rescue after the event, so I can only push someone out to bow, withdraw the rescue team, and directly excavate the ground.

Shenli Linyue felt that it was completely okay to speculate on a corrupt and backward regime with the greatest malice, and might even overestimate the bottom line of others.

"So in the end it's the secret society that resists everything?"

"Almost." Kujo Sanae nodded, "Basically, the Mystery Council and Shintoism solve the troubles. Shintoism gets funds through donations from the people, and will spend part of it on disaster relief, and part of it will be donated to the Mystery Council, and cooperate with the Mystery Council to reward Those who dare to fight against the beasts or contribute to the crisis of the beasts.

"As for the sources of funding for the Mystery Council, apart from commissioned commissions and Chinese Shinto donations, it is obtained by selling research results to others and cooperating with others to commercialize the results."

After a pause, Kujo Sanae said again: "However, the actions of the Mystery Council and Shintoism are too easy to gain positive reputation. Some officials in the shogunate have a sense of crisis, thinking that the two may rebel, so they are always watching They, overtly and covertly, make a little stumbling block and add some restrictions."

"It sounds so ironic. Those who really helped everyone solve the problem not only did not get the official rewards, but they were feared and even targeted by the officials." Shenli Linyue couldn't help but sighed, "I feel so much better after hearing what you said. There is... more dissatisfaction with the shogunate."

Perhaps the Secret Council is secretly using the matter of paying the bounty to benefit themselves, but what they are currently doing is basically a charitable act. If they do not do other excessive things, it is equivalent to asking people to contribute to the society at their own expense. It's love, not accident duty.

For example, the shogunate wanted to build a road as an official, and it was expected to spend 100 million, but the shogunate only gave [-], and no one picked it up. Seeing that the local life is getting worse and worse due to bad roads, the Secret Council had to pay extra by itself Money, so I can hire someone to fix it.

Yuta Nakashi said that the beheaded monsters can still be exchanged for bounties for the shogunate. If relics such as corpses are exchanged for bounties, they belong to the shogunate, and the secret society will get nothing.

Thinking about it this way, the 2000 yuan/piece proposed just now is not such a loss.

From the current point of view, the Secret Council is purely for charity, and it would be unconscionable to slaughter them. If you want to slaughter them, it is the shogunate who slaughtered people.

"By the way, the price range of 1000-50000 entrusted by the shogunate...does it mean to be a secret?" Shenli Linyue diverged her thoughts.

The upper limit is deliberately said to be so high (for Shenli Linyue) and the lower limit is so low, do you want the secret society to bleed heavily to help them pay the people of insight to achieve their goals?

Because of the upper limit, if the Secret Council issued additional rewards, everyone would definitely see whether the secret council's rewards had reached the upper limit of the Shogunate, and would not think about whether the Shogunate's settings would be unreasonable.

"I don't know, maybe there is a possibility." Kutiao Sanae didn't want to speculate deeply in this aspect, lest she would get angry the more she found out the truth.

"Cough, it seems that we have reached the place. There is a blockade in front of us. We should get off." Seeing Kujo Sanae's attitude, Kanli Linyue did not go any further. Just as they were chatting, they arrived at their destination.

Because all the roads leading to the blockade area have been blocked by the shogunate, they got out of the car when they approached and went to the checkpoint set up by the shogunate to register and report.

"Are you superhumans who received the entrustment?" The registrar looked the two underage girls up and down, and shook his head, "You don't have any fluctuations in the secret key, are you trying to lie to me? This is not a place to play, leave quickly , or I will arrest you all."

"My lord, haven't you read the book, don't you know the words on the power of attorney?" Kujo Sanae asked lightly.

After the chat just now, the two girls didn't have a good impression of the shogunate at this time, so that Kujo Sanae spoke very aggressively, with a strong taste of provocation.

The registrar's face changed, "Presumptuous! How dare you provoke the shogunate army, do you know who I am?"

"I don't care who you are." Shenli Linyue said angrily, "Just say let us in or not!"

The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, and the person who issued the reward entrustment is like that, so his lower beam is definitely not a good thing.

At this time, a soldier rushed to the registrar and whispered something in the ear of the registrar. The registrar was stunned for a moment, then looked at Linyue and Kutiao Sanae in his eyes, waved his hands and said: "Okay, my lord will not remember the villains, If you want to go in, go in, you can take it after killing the strange beast, and we will give you a reward after a strict review."

Kamisato Linyue snorted softly, and entered the blockade with Kujo Sanae.

As soon as you step in, there is a different feeling.

"The 'corruption' you're talking about really makes this place feel different from other places."

Shenli Linyue didn't know the exact difference, but she just had a strange feeling, which manifested itself as... the feeling that the temperature had dropped by several degrees.

The guard carried by Kujo Sanae exudes a touch of warmth, giving Jiujo Sanae protection from the corruption of the abyss.

The girl let out a little sigh of relief, and let go of her worries, "Yes, after the corruption has progressed to a certain extent, this place is not suitable for human habitation, so it must be solved, otherwise those strange beasts will definitely be corrupted after completing an area. will expand."

"So serious? Then I have to take care of it."

Qianchuan Beach is not far from Tenri Shrine, and it is only about 30 kilometers away. The scope of a modern city is larger than this.

If these strange beasts are allowed to mess around, they will definitely include the Tianli Shrine in their territory when they expand.

Originally, there were very few customers, but when the time comes, everyone will move out, so why not starve to death?

"Where do you think we should start our investigation?" Shenli Linyue asked Kujo Sanae.

She doesn't know as much about weird beasts as Kutiao Sanae, so it's better to listen to the "experts" and work according to the "experts"' guidance.

"Uh... If you want to choose, let's go to the pier to start. Inari is an island country. Although you can't go to the deep sea, you can also sail in the shallow sea. There are many islands. Generally, things are transported by boat. The pier here is cleaned up. Others People in the area can also come here better. There happens to be a dock in the area corrupted by the strange beast, and the dock is near the dock."

"Okay, let's go to the pier."

Said Shenli Linyue was about to pass, but stopped before taking two steps, turned around and asked, "By the way, where is the pier?"

"...to the east."

"GO!"

The area occupied by the creepy beasts is quite large. Fortunately, they did not completely destroy the roads in the area.

When entering the blocked area, Kujo Sanae got two bicycles from the trunk of her car, which greatly accelerated the speed of the two.

Soon, they came near the pier.

As soon as they arrived, the two heard a low beast roar.

"This cry should be 'Feng Yuan Jia Beast', this is a strange beast that looks similar to a saber-toothed tiger. Its body is scaled in summer and hairy in winter. Bite, the strength is incomparable, and it can pull mountains and trees."

Hearing the roar, Kujo Sanae immediately explained.

"Can you tell just by the sound? It's amazing." The girl exclaimed.

Kujo Sanae clearly said that she was not a superhuman, but just an ordinary person, but she knew so much about the world of superhumans.

Shenli Linyue felt that she was lying to herself, and she definitely wanted to pretend to be an ordinary person and pretend to be a pig and a tiger!

Hearing Kujo Sanae's description of the strange beast, Shenli Linyue also became nervous.

She took down the catalpa bow on her back, and put an arrow on the bowstring.

Suddenly, Shenli Linyue thought of the bounty from the shogunate, and couldn't help showing a witch-like smile, "I suddenly thought of a way, I can use it to test how much the shogunate paid?"

"any solution?"

"Don't kill that creepy beast, send it to the shogunate. If they speak well, kill them on the spot. If they can't speak well, then..."

Kujo Sanae understood.

At this time, only a figure appeared in the shadow of the tree in the distance, and a vague head emerged from the treetop.

"good chance!"

As soon as Shenli Linyue's eyes lit up, she immediately bent her bow and set an arrow. With her archery expertise, the girl narrowed her eyes.

Phew~!

Hit the bullseye!

"One shot into the soul!"

Putting the Azusa bow back behind her back, Kansato Linyue and Kujo Sanae looked at each other and immediately ran over on their bicycles.

The place where the strange beast fell was close to the pier. Turning a corner at the end of the road, the two saw an antique warship docked on the pier.

Because they didn't see anyone, the two didn't pay attention to the battleship, thinking it was some deserted ship attraction.

The two quickly came to the place where the strange beast fell.

Shenli Linyue pointed to the cat-like tiger-like animal on the ground, "Is this the Fengyuan armored beast you mentioned?"

Seeing the fallen behemoth, Kujo Sanae nodded, "Yes."

Such a big strange beast fell down without destroying the surrounding area?

Thinking of the same thing happened to the iron-eating bird last time, Kujo Sanae was relieved.

Miss Miko is too strong!

It is strong enough to control the landing point where the beasts fall, so that they cannot destroy the surrounding things.

"But it's so big, it's hard to take it there, isn't it?"

The size of this strange beast can be compared with that warship on the pier, even if Shenli Linyue is very strong, he can't lift it, right?

"Is it big?" Shenli Linyue looked at the 'Feng Yuan Jia Beast', which was only a circle bigger than the orange cat, and lifted it up, "Isn't this a hand?"

Seeing that in the hands of Shenli Linyue, the huge Fengyuan armored beast quickly shrank to the size of a cat, Kutiao Sanae opened his mouth and was speechless.

"Okay, let's go and see what those shogunate soldiers have to say."

Xiao Linyue threw the Fengyuan armored beast behind the bicycle, hummed a little song, stepped on the bicycle, and drove towards the direction it came from.

"Sanae-chan, aren't you leaving?"

"Huh? Oh, here we come."

Little knowledge: Once caused the giant beast Fugalo to come, secretly colluded with deep-sea worshipers, and a three-barreled tube that did anything for knowledge was also the president of the Mystic Council.

Chapter 124 Greed on Miss Miko's Head 4k

As the registrar and person in charge of one of the checkpoints in the blockade area, Kotaro Shimogawa has no courage to kill strange beasts, but he still has the courage to make money by killing strange beasts, and it is very large.

In his opinion, this must be a fat job.

There are a lot of strange beasts in the blockade area. Although the abyss is always scary, there must be many extraordinary people who are not afraid of death running over to die... Oh no, demon slayer.

And these people are fat sheep!

Pass by me, and want to leave without pulling some hair out?

He believes that he is not the only one who thinks this way, and maybe even the person in charge of all the checkpoints stationed on the blockade line thinks this way.

However, there is a slight gap between ideal and reality.

On the first day of stationing, I waited for a long time and there was no one there. In the afternoon, two fat sheep came... Oh no, witches, I wanted to get some people's fat from them, but they talked more aggressively than myself However, someone told me at this time that those two might be the maidens of Tenri Shrine!

Kotarou Shimogawa is very smart...I think so.

He also looked at the cause and effect of the death of the secret guardian Fengxing. He thought it had nothing to do with the Tenri Shrine. The subsequent attack by the strange beasts was an inevitable event, and the witches would come without the Tenli Shrine.

As for the conflict caused by the iron-eating bird, Kotaro Shimogawa thought that if he came by himself, he would definitely handle it properly, not only to take the credit, but also to let the two witches be grateful to him!
