Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 18: unfortunately

"It's just a'novice hunter', is it unnecessary?" Jiang Baimian said amusedly as he watched Shang Jian Yao pin the badge to his chest.

Before Shang Jian Yao could answer, she quickly added:

"I understand, a sense of ritual."

She remembered having similar conversations.

"Do you know why you are asking?" Shang Jianyao didn't seem to hear the group leader's intention to stop here.

Jiang Baimian gave him a white look, stepped back a few steps, and looked up at the giant screen hanging in the air.

"Don't have to be so troublesome. Every machine over there can see what tasks are available. After you have selected it, you can swipe the badge at the flashing red spot and you will be able to pick it up." The female staff who had just registered the hunter status for them saw it. A reminder a little loudly.

Because the two people opposite had just filled in the information by herself, she didn't say that if they were illiterate, she could choose the voice.

"...It's quite high-tech." Jiang Baimian suddenly felt that he was acting a bit like a dumpling.

In the "Pangu Biology", it is not so convenient!

In other words, she has never been to similar places in similar departments.

The female staff member answered with some pride:

"There are no more than ten hunter guilds as convenient as ours in the entire dusty soil."

Ah, what are you talking about? Jiang Baimian touched his metal cochlea and was not ashamed to ask.

——There is already a certain distance between the two sides, and the clerk did not say this loudly just now.

"She said that there are no more than ten hunter guilds like this on the dust." Shang Jianyao can always help "translate" in time.

Of course, sometimes, others do not want him to do this.

"It's worthy of the rumored city that is about to be taken over by the Hunter's Guild..." Jiang Baimian muttered to himself with emotion, half joking.

She led Shang Jianyao to the tables scattered in different places in the hall, and each picked up a thin silver-white machine with an LCD screen.

This is like an enlarged, metal version of a paper notebook.

At this time, many relic hunters were standing in different places, or quickly swiping their fingers across the screen, or putting the badge on a flashing red spot on the top of the machine.

Jiang Baimian also has a wealth of computer experience, and he usually drives a chip. After just scanning it, he probably understands how to operate the machine in front of him.

After she turned on the screen, she swiped up according to the prompts to display the task page.

At this moment, she saw Shang Jianyao looking at her from the corner of her eye and took out a boxed mirror, eager to try.

"What do you want to do?" Jiang Baimian was very alert.

"Cheat yourself, pretend to be you, then imitate your actions, and successfully learn to use the machine." Shang Jianyao explained very seriously.

He glanced left and right to confirm that no one was around.

It's like dealing with Qiao Chu and the "higher unintentional man" who caused greed.

"..." Jiang Baimian cursed badly, "Don't think so complicated! Don't make such a simple thing so troublesome! Come, I'll teach you."

As a student who graduated from the Department of Electronics, Shang Jianyao has seen less in the market. After Jiang Baimian said a few words, he quickly mastered how to operate the machine.

And until this time, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen walked into the lobby of the Hunter's Guild.

Their behavior of not allowing themselves to register as hunters happened to be in tandem with Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao.

Jiang Baimian glanced at the round table area, retracted his gaze, and formally looked through the tasks:

"Task description: Zhao Mansion on North Street recruits 20 short-term mercenaries..."

"Task description: The historian Harold is organizing a team to go to the ruins of Marsh No. 1 in the near future, and it is urgent to have experienced people to join..."

"Task description: A batch of antiquities seeking identification..."

"Task description: Weapon for food..."

"Task description: Send lunch to Wasteland Outpost..."

After quickly flipping through the tasks that can still be taken, Jiang Baimian couldn't help sighing:

"such a pity……"

"It's a pity..." Shang Jianyao on the other side made the same voice, but did not imitate Jiang Baimian's tone.

Jiang Baimian turned his head to look at him, and asked with a smile:

"What are you so sorry for?"

"Qiao Chu's mission is gone." Shang Jianyao did not hide his regret.

"I'm sorry about this too." Jiang Baimian said "Hey", "Otherwise, with the information we have, at least four tons of flour can be obtained. Recently, there is no need to worry about it, and he will instantly become an'official hunter'. "

Her subtext is that the "Old Tune Team" has information about Qiao Chu, which allows everyone to pick up the task individually and the content of the report is not duplicated.

And once completed, the reward is one ton of ordinary grade flour and one hundred credits.

——From "Novice Hunter" to "Official Hunter", only one hundred credit points are required.

Having said that, Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao sighed again in unison:

"such a pity……"

In a sense, Qiao Chu is really a walking "treasure."

After knowing roughly what the task is, Jiang Baimian said to Shang Jian Yao:

"Let's go, none of these are appropriate, and I'll check it out tomorrow."

In fact, there are some tasks that are suitable for "novice hunters", and there is no need to leave Weed City, but Jiang Baimian must first contact the "Pangu Biology" intelligence agent to confirm what to do next, before considering which tasks to take.

This time she went to the Hunter Guild. On the one hand, she registered her identity, and on the other hand, she had a preliminary grasp of the current situation of Weed City by knowing what tasks she had.

The fall of a leaf can tell the world in autumn. In the highly developed Weed City of the Hunter Guild, any undercurrent surging underneath will more or less show some clues through the missions released.

In short, Jiang Baimian has finished browsing like this, but feels that the situation on North Street may be a little bit tense, and everything else is fine.

"Swamp No. 1 Relic?" Shang Jian Yao followed Jiang Baimian to the door of the Hunter's Guild, asking in confusion.

"Look at the description later, it should be the one we've been to." Jiang Baimian is no stranger to such things as the replacement number.

Out of the Hunter's Guild, she put her hands in her pockets and said with a smile:

"Wander around. This is the first time I have come to Wild Grass City. I had a chance before, but I missed it."

Shang Jian Yao was equally enthusiastic.

After a while, after a certain distance, Long Yuehong who followed them asked Bai Chen suspiciously:

"Group leader, where are you going?"

How do you look aimlessly?

Bai Chen thought about it and said:

"She should be familiar with it."

Long Yuehong was startled for a moment, and then vaguely understood.

After strolling around at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, they finally returned to the "Afu Gun Shop", entered through the front door, exited through the back door, climbed the stairs, and opened the door to enter the house.

Jiang Baimian didn't speak, and took out a large piece of white paper from his tactical backpack, and drew on it with a pen while remembering.

It didn't take long for the layout of the entire Weed City to be revealed except for North Street.

At the same time, Jiang Baimian also marked different places with words such as "ditch", "more shelter", "more chaotic nearby", and "wiring layout is poor and easy to malfunction".

After doing this, she handed both the paper and pen to Bai Chen:

"Let's see if there is anything to add? Haha, that is, Weed City is not big."

Bai Chen let out a "um", reached out and took the pen and paper, laid it on the table, and began to draw and write.

Taking this opportunity, Jiang Baimian said to Shang Jian Yao and Long Yue:

"I'll take a good look later, and remember it in my head.

"Afterwards, we may move separately. At that time, if you encounter an accident, you must at least know where to hide and how to use the terrain."

Long Yuehong has long been convinced by oral administration:

"Yes, group leader!"

Shang Jian Yao frowned slightly and said:

"What needs to be avoided is the accident."

Before Jiang Baimian glared at him, he added to himself:

"After remembering, you can make the accident impossible to hide, and you cannot use the terrain."

"Just understand." Jiang Baimian said much lazily.

When Bai Chen perfected the map, everyone remembered the corresponding key points. Jiang Baimian pointed to the alley opposite the South Street Slave Market and asked:

"When we saw an intelligence officer at night, we scored a group of people to monitor secretly to prevent accidents.

"Which position do you think is better?"

As the team's sniper, Bai Chen pointed to the South Street Slave Market unwillingly:

"Here~www.ltnovel.com~ the roof on the left, you can completely control the alley on the opposite side."

Jiang Baimian nodded:

"If, I mean, if there is a problem with the company's intelligence officer, then the people behind him will choose this point. We try not to run into them, it is better to choose the second best point.

"Anyway, Shang Jianyao and I can adjust our positions to ensure your vision and trajectory."

After some discussion, the "old tune group" finalized the roof on the right side of the South Street Slave Market. At that time, Bai Chen and Long Yuehong will be in charge of this place, while Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao will go to see the company's intelligence personnel.

Winter nights always come very early, darkness gradually enveloped the city of weeds, and yellow or pure white lights were lit one after another.

By 7:40, Jiang Baimian stood up, put on his own hat, and said to Shang Jian Yao and others:

"Action."
