Calamity Island: Endless Trials

Chapter 18 Intelligence and Exchange

When the sheriff asked such a sentence, Liu Ziyun and the three of them froze.

Oops.

Liu Ziyun has never lied. Faced with questioning, he answered nervously: "Yes, we are businessmen."

"fart!"

The sheriff looked at Liu Ziyun angrily, raised his finger and pointed at Liu Ziyun's nose and cursed:
"You are not businessmen at all. Before, the mayor hired bounty hunters. I saw your avatars on them. You are not businessmen at all, but bounty hunters!"

While talking, he drew his gun and aimed at Liu Ziyun and the others.

As the sheriff exposed the identities of Liu Ziyun and the others, the other sheriffs also drew their guns and aimed at Liu Ziyun and the three of them.

"Say! You are obviously bounty hunters, why are you pretending to be businessmen? What is your purpose? Do you want to defraud the mayor of the employment money given to you?"

From the beginning to the present, the development of the matter has not been expected by Liu Ziyun and the three of them, and now they have been exposed by the magistrate, and the three have fallen into a passive situation.

In the face of several dark muzzles, Liu Ziyun and the three of them looked nervous.

Liu Ziyun opened his mouth, but didn't know how to answer the other's question.

He has never been good at lying.

But at this moment, a calm voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

"We only changed into this clothes this morning. Yesterday we were patrolling in bounty hunter clothes, but the battle broke out and the clothes were stained with blood. In order not to look too bloody, please help us wash them at the hotel."

At this time, Jing Jiao calmed down.

Anyway, the identity of the bounty hunter has been discovered, so it is better to lie along this identity.

"Really? Why should I believe your words? Laundry? Who are you lying to!"

Jing Jiao didn't lie, and took the conversation steadily. Instead, she asked the sheriff, "Do you think we want to wear businessman's clothes?"

"If there's no other way, who wears this dress, look at those guys, if they didn't see us wearing businessman clothes, they would misunderstand and come to trouble us?"

"It's all for hiring money and bounties. It's better to do something less. If it weren't for that suit of clothes, would we have to change into merchant clothes?"

Jing Jiao asked back.

Having experienced so many things here, Jing Jiao has gradually adapted from being unbelievable before, but when faced with such a crisis, she calmed down and began to think hard.

Among the group of sheriffs, an older one said, "Okay, put the gun away."

He looked at Jing Jiao and said, "I won't hold you accountable for changing your clothes this time, but change your clothes back as soon as possible. I don't want anyone to use this to mix up the employment fee. The employment fee given by our mayor is not for nothing. given."

Jing Jiao replied, "Of course."

She breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, okay." The older sheriff waved his hand impatiently.

"I see that you don't even know that you can't shoot in the town. It's the first time you've come to our town. I'll spare you this time. I warn you that you can no longer wear merchant's clothes, and hurry back and change back to bounty hunter clothes. , if I see you guys wearing businessman clothes tomorrow, you'll be dead!"

"roll!"

Obviously, the sheriff is not going to pursue it.

When Jing Jiao heard it, she saw that Liu Ziyun and Jiang Xiong hadn't responded yet, she hurriedly pulled the two of them, Liu Ziyun reacted quickly, and hurriedly took them out of the tavern.

At night, after about five o'clock, Liu Ziyun and the others finally returned to the hotel, and at the door of the hotel, Chen Min and the others were already waiting for Liu Ziyun and the others.

"Officer Liu, you are back." Chen Min saw Liu Ziyun from afar and began to wave.

In fact, Chen Min and the others came back a long time ago. At this moment, the four of them are discussing what to do at night. If there is really no good way, they still want to stay at the hotel for another night.

the safest way.

When Liu Ziyun came over, he heard a few people discussing, he stepped forward to interrupt, and told the four of them what he discovered today.

"So we can't wait any longer. Since the werewolves killed by other people can't be counted on our players' heads, we must kill those werewolves."

"How could this be..." Qu Fei murmured, looking deeply hit.

Although the other three people were not as lost as Qu Fei's performance, they were also relieved in their hearts, and no one thought that things would turn out like this.

"Today, when we went to the periphery to search for clues, we actually heard that someone had killed two werewolves, but we didn't link this to the system prompt. I thought that two werewolves had already died, so I just needed to join in and attack the werewolves. team, we can live safely to the end.”

Chen Min sighed regretfully, but then, he suddenly became concerned; another person: "Then Officer Liu, have you found Zhong Linrong?"

Apart from Tang Jiumin who left at the beginning, Zhong Linrong was the one who wanted to kill the werewolf the most, especially when they broke up this morning, but Chen Min felt that the other party was definitely trying to kill the werewolf.

"found it."

"He has joined a team of bounty hunters and intends to kill werewolves with the new team."

It means that Zhong Linrong doesn't plan to act with their group anymore.

Hearing this, Chen Min couldn't help but scolded: "I just said that he doesn't treat us as his own, and even ran to cooperate with others, without considering our life or death!"

"Too cold-blooded! No team consciousness at all!"

After accusing Zhong Linrong, Liu Ziyun frowned slightly. Although Zhong Linrong did not come back, the other party had reminded them many times.

Moreover, the signal flare shows that the other party is not as unbearable as Chen Min accused.

So Liu Ziyun interrupted Chen Min's accusation.

"Now is not the time to talk about this, the most important thing is to think about what we will do next. If we act at night, we need to change into bounty hunter clothes, but what should we do at the boss?"

The crowd fell silent immediately.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Chen Min maintained his second-in-command attitude in the team. At this time, he only spoke:
"Let me leave this matter to me. I will tell the hotel owner that the prisoner is a wanted criminal we arrested, so he will be locked in his room and then give him an extra sum of money."

"Then tell him we're not staying in hotels tonight, so it should be fine."

Chen Min turned around and went to the hotel to negotiate with the hotel owner.

At this time, Qu Fei looked at Liu Ziyun and asked nervously, "Officer Liu, where are you going to take us at night? Do you have any plans?"

I originally thought I could stay in the hotel all the time, but the reality was always desperate, and I didn't expect to have to patrol at night only the next day.

Qu Fei is a little confused.

Liu Ziyun glanced at Qu Fei who was in a panic, and sighed in his heart: "There is some money left after Chen Min disposed of the necklace before, let's go buy some torches and first aid items first."

"It's not illegal to shoot at night in a small town. At night, I'll teach you to be familiar with pistols first. Everyone needs to shoot at least six shots first to find out how you feel, so that you can protect yourself in the face of danger."

"Remember, after the night, we must be together, and the distance between each person cannot exceed two meters, otherwise it will be difficult for me to take care of you."

Jing Jiao suddenly asked: "How do we determine the patrol route? I heard that those bounty hunters have their own patrol route, so how should we patrol at night?"

"If we walk randomly, if the route we take is too dangerous, we are likely to die, but if we choose the route that is too safe, it will not be our turn to kill the werewolf."

"Officer Liu, have you decided your next route?"

Cheng Cheng, Qu Fei, Glenn, Jiang Xiong, when these four were still at a loss, Jing Jiao asked Liu Ziyun something more important.

Clearly organized.

Perhaps after experiencing some stimuli, people will stimulate huge potential, just like the current Jing Jiao, who has gradually entered the state of "player".

Liu Ziyun could feel the change in Jing Jiao, which was a good thing, so he looked at the other party and said:
"After learning about it today, I learned that most of the werewolves appeared on the periphery of the town, and there were few werewolves in the center of the town."

"You are right, we can't waste our time, so we still patrol the perimeter. We have a lot of people. As long as we teach you how to use pistols later, one person and one shot are enough for the werewolf to parry. As long as the werewolf is injured, we will have a lot of trouble. Great chance to kill the werewolf."

As soon as the voice fell, the sound of trotting footsteps came from the hotel.

Chen Min ran back, he nodded to Liu Ziyun, and said, "I have already dealt with the innkeeper, the prisoner can be locked inside. I told the innkeeper that he is our wanted criminal, and the boss has no doubts."

"However, we can no longer stay in the hotel. The boss told me that there is a square in the center of the town. It is said that there are many tents there, which can let us live for free."

"We are going out on patrol at night, and we can go to rest during the day."

"At least there are tents for us to live in, so it won't be too bad." Liu Ziyun nodded.

"Hurry up, everyone, change your clothes, and take your guns. I'll teach you the basics of aiming and shooting at night."

---------------

As the evening approached, in the last half hour, the yellow sand outside the town was full, and the sun was setting at the end.

In the small town, there were not many pedestrians on the road, but there were many people in the tavern at this time.

Almost all bounty hunters are making final preparations. They are checking their equipment, firearms, clothes and armor, etc. By this time, many bounty hunters either have a fixed team or have the confidence to fight alone.

The atmosphere was not as lively as it was during the day. Many people silently ordered the last glass of wine before the battle. After drinking this glass of wine, they went to patrol after six o'clock.

The werewolf was also one of them. He was sitting at a table by himself and was carefully cleaning his pistol and shotgun.

On the table, there is a big glass of good beer.

The werewolf catches a sip every now and then.

Everyone else in the tavern knew that the werewolf hunter had killed two werewolves, and had just obtained two pieces of gold from the merchant.

Big money, one point is the best beer in the pub.

Even so, the werewolf had a depressed look on his face at this time.

"Hey..." The werewolf sighed subconsciously, feeling so depressed in his heart.

The mayor's huge bounty turned into two pieces of gold he got from the businessman. The difference was too big, and he was particularly unhappy.

What's even more unpleasant is why he was inexplicably regarded as a wanted criminal?This mayor has no eyes!

"call……"

Feeling that his equipment was almost adjusted, the werewolf caught his glass, drank the remaining beer, and stood up to leave the tavern.

"Hey! Mr. Werewolf."

someone called him?

The werewolf looked back and saw that it was a young man who called him. He looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.

"We met at the Center Tavern before, and I invited you to drink a glass of wine." Tang Jiumin quickly explained when he saw the werewolf catcher's puzzled expression.

"Oh! It's you!" Hearing this, the werewolf patted his head, and then showed a warm smile.

"It looks like you were fine the first night, which is great news, boy."

"Hahaha, after all, my luck has always been good, and I was not killed by a werewolf. By the way, I saw you this morning and actually killed two werewolves. It turns out that what you said in the tavern was the truth. Thought you were bragging."

"I'm a professional werewolf hunter. Of course I won't brag. I'm not the same as you."

When the werewolf said this, he suddenly lowered his face and scratched his hair irritably.

"Hey, when I think of this, I feel very upset. I am a werewolf hunter who specializes in killing werewolves, but the mayor didn't invite me."

"It's good now! Even if I kill two werewolves, I can't get the bounty. If a few merchants hadn't bought the werewolf heads, I'm afraid I'd be dead!"

Tang Jiumin immediately shook his head and made an exaggerated voice.

"God! You are still disgusted. Killing two werewolves has already earned you two pieces of gold. You have already made a lot of money, and we bounty hunters haven't earned a penny yet."

"Hey, you don't understand." The werewolf shook his head, raised the shotgun, and pointed to the bullet bag above.

"Did you see? Originally, I only had four of these bullets. Now I use two to kill the werewolf, and there are only two. Do you think I lost a lot?"

The bullet bag contained two silver bullets.

Tang Jiumin asked tentatively, "Is this a silver bullet, can't you do a few more during the day?"

"It's a silver bullet, but I can't make these two silver bullets casually. I have to find someone to make them." The werewolf rolled his eyes, obviously there was nothing he could do about making silver bullets.

"Use one, one less?" Tang Jiumin nodded understandingly, and then asked, "Then what are you going to do now, do you want to kill werewolves at night?"

"Of course I have to go."

"Although I can't get the mayor's bounty now, I can kill werewolves and sell their heads to merchants. As you said, earning some gold is better than nothing."

"Friend!" The werewolf patted Tang Jiumin's shoulder and reminded him, "You saw it too, I only had money for a small glass of low-quality beer at the Center Tavern yesterday, and I couldn't afford another one."

"If you hadn't bought me a drink, my alcohol addiction would have tortured me to this day."

"Well, I'll treat you to a drink!"

The werewolf is ready to order wine.

"Friend, there is no need for wine, but if you want to continue hunting werewolves, I have some news on my side."
