"Boom!"
A dull sound sounded, and the huge box was placed on the ground in front of the bar of the tavern.
"Paul, here to inspect the goods!"
The leader, a man in his thirties, shouted to the bartender in authentic Gallic.
Several companions beside him were also talking to each other, but they spoke the language of other countries.
It was obvious that this team was made up of several hunters from different countries.
"Maurice, it seems you have preyed again. What is it this time? Don't tell me, is it a mouse?"
Paul came out from behind the counter and spoke to the other party in Gaulish as well.
He walked up to the big men. They must be familiar with each other, and the greeting seemed very casual.
This guy named Paul is not only the bartender here, but also the task distributor.
And what surprised Hu Peng and Xun You most was that he seemed to know a lot of languages.
When Paul talks to these bounty hunters, he can almost communicate in each other's language.
"I also wanted to hunt some other things, but to be honest, there were the most rats in that place. I felt like I was about to become a professional rat catcher."
As he spoke, Morris lit a cigarette, took a long drag, and showed a happy expression.
When Paul heard what he said, his expression suddenly became strange.
"I said Maurice, you didn't transport these rats from Gaul, did you?"
As he spoke, he opened the box and saw a burst of white cold air wafting out, revealing the items inside.
Those were clearly three black rat corpses!
They are very large, almost the size of an adult golden retriever.
The fur all over the body is also a jet black color, and coupled with the ferocious appearance, people will feel a chill behind them when they look at it.
Even though these three mice were frozen in the box, they still had a rotten smell, and everyone in the bar couldn't help but cover their mouths.
"Click~"
Paul closed the box, dispersed the air in front of his eyes with his hands, and said:
"Maurice, I have told you to pay more attention to our information, but you just don't read it."
"What's wrong?"
"If you have read the information, you will know that we have opened a Wildfire Tavern in Bari a few days ago. If you want to submit a task, there is no need to come all the way here."
As soon as he said these words, everyone present was stunned, especially Morris and others, who looked at him with expressions of "You're kidding me."
Morris himself had a big mouth, and he didn't even notice when the cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground.
"Damn it! Do you want to tell me that I spent so much effort, spent several days, and traveled thousands of kilometers to get this thing from Marseille? In fact, you still have a branch. In Paris!??”
Paul spread his hands: "I think so."
"Meow! Meow, meow! Meow!"
Morris slammed the lighter in his hand to the ground, venting his dissatisfaction in a unique way from his hometown.
Several of his teammates also had constipated expressions on their faces.
Some people still took out their mobile phones to check the information, and found that it was exactly what Paul said. Then they sighed like a deflated ball.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Suddenly there was a loud noise around him, it was other bounty hunters.
The management was immediately filled with a happy atmosphere.
The people here are all veteran hunters with rich experience, and they can basically understand some of the languages of various countries.
Those who didn't understand also understood what happened under the explanations of others, and everyone laughed and laughed. It was so lively.
"Maurice, to be honest, I suggest that you pay attention to the news about our pub in the future. Just like now, not only in Gaul, we have opened branches in most mainstream countries around the world. Don't waste time again in the future. Just took a trip."
Paul explained to these people with a funny face.
Morris rubbed his hair vigorously, pointed to the box and said:
"Damn it, I get it, don't waste your time Paul, if the goods are okay, just give me the reward as soon as possible."
"OK, OK, what do you want? Cash or transfer?"
"Of course it's cash! Rice knife!"
"I knew it……"
Paul muttered, then said something quickly into the intercom, and then continued:
"Okay, the reward you want will come soon. I have asked Jill to count the money."
After everyone waited here for a while, they saw a door open and a tall girl walking out carrying a small suitcase.
Morris and others' eyes lit up after seeing this, and they didn't know whether they were looking at the person or the box.
After counting the money in the box, the expression on his face, which was originally very excited, suddenly turned a little unhappy.
"Paul, what's going on? Why is there only 12,000 meters of gold in the box? Didn't the three mice agree to get 15,000 meters of gold!?"
Paul pointed to the mobile phone held by one of them and said:
"Maurice, have you forgotten what I just said? Take a closer look at the news we sent you. The bounty for black rats has been reduced. Each one only costs four thousand dollars."
"What! Why is this happening!!"
"I can't help it. There are too many of these rats recently. The boss doesn't need so much material. After all, scarcity is more valuable."
Paul didn't care at all about the angry expression on the big man's face and continued:
"Besides, if you have read the news, you will know that although the bounty for black rats has dropped, the task of investigating the sewers of Gaul has been increased to 120,000. If you can find out the source of the rats, you can make a lot of money in one go. It’s ten times the money, isn’t it?”
However, Morris still looked furious.
"Damn it! Paul, you can't do this! Do you know how hard we worked to catch these rats! I almost lost my life there! God knows how these damn monsters have such power! They are all demons! You let us fight against the devil! You also deduct our money, this is unreasonable!"
When other people around heard Morris' words, they also started whispering, and the atmosphere in the tavern suddenly became a little weird.
When Hu Peng and Xun You saw this scene, they looked at each other, and then they secretly began to strengthen their physiques, preparing to deal with possible conflicts at any time.
"boom!"
A loud sound rang out, and it turned out to be Paul slapping the box containing the black rat hard.
"Maurice, pay attention to your behavior! This is a rule set by the boss. If you have any opinions about the bounty, you can go to our boss to talk to us. But if you dare to make trouble here, you should know what the consequences will be. !”
Quiet, the people around him all fell silent after Paul's threatening words, and no one continued to speak, and no one continued to make a fuss.
After a long time, Morris finally broke the silence and said:
"Paul, it's my fault. Give me the money and let's go."
Paul spread his hands: "The money is in your hands, do you still want me to help you transport it to the car?"
Hearing what he said, the big men breathed a sigh of relief, repacked their suitcases, and left without looking back.
When the others saw this, they all started drinking and chatting on their own as if nothing had happened before.
Paul returned behind the bar, looked at Hu Peng and Xun You, and said:
"Okay, you two, what were we talking about just now? Do you want to have a drink or take on a mission? Oh, by the way, if you have an account, you can log in directly on this tablet."
When he said these words, there was a hint of confusion on his face.
The two hooded young men in front of him seemed to give him a different feeling than before.
When Paul met the two of them before, he never dared to look down on each other.
The reason is simple, because he felt a pressure from the other party.
This kind of pressure is inexplicable and difficult to describe.
If I had to describe it, it's a bit like the natural sense of oppression that comes from the level of life.
But that feeling is not too strong, and even if you ignore it deliberately, you can ignore it.
But now, when he saw these two people again, he somehow felt a very dangerous feeling.
This reminded him of his experience when he was young and had just come out to explore, and encountered a Siberian tiger in the wild.
He even said that the feeling the other party gave him was stronger than that of a fierce tiger.
Of course, what he didn't know was that both Hu Peng and Xun You were now in a state of being blessed with 20 points of physical fitness.
The individual's ability has completely exceeded the scope of human beings, which made him, who has a relatively keen sense, feel frightened in his heart.
It was also the first time for Hu Peng and Xun You to come to the Wild Fire Tavern, and they didn't know much about some things here.
Like the situation just now, for the sake of safety, the two of them also turned on physical enhancement.
Fortunately, things are not going in a bad direction. Although they are not afraid of these ordinary people, it is good to have less trouble.
After all, this is the property of the Star Alliance. If something is damaged, you will be the one who suffers.
Now that the alert is lifted and everything is back to normal, it couldn't be better.
At this moment, facing Paul's question, Hu Peng looked back at the tablet in his hand.
"This is the login account, right? I remember I have registered. Wait a moment."
He said, opening the guest page and entering his account information.
The next moment, a white fox channel appeared on the monitor.
"This, this is..."
When Paul's eyes came into contact with the level item, something suddenly changed.
"X-level! Are you two...?"
"Chenghuang."
"Fighting."
Their answers were brief and light.
But to Paul's ears, this sounded like rolling thunder.
Generally speaking, the levels of bounty hunters here are divided into levels E to S. The higher the level, the more tasks the hunter has completed and the stronger his ability.
But what Paul also knows is that there is another level above S level, which is X level.
Different from the previous level classification, level X does not represent tasks and achievements, but symbolizes another identity of the visitor.
X organization!
That is a very mysterious and huge organization, the real controlling organization behind the Wildfire Tavern.
Paul didn't know much about X. He only knew that his boss was the Wildfire Team, a very famous team in the bounty hunter circle.
And this chain of pubs all over the world was opened by them.
Of course, this news is not a secret in the circle, and many hunters who come here know it.
But what they don't know is that the boss is only on the surface. Behind them, there is a mysterious and powerful organization - X.
Everyone knows what kind of character a bounty hunter has.
Basically, they all belong to the type where you will be drunk today if you have wine, and you will be worried tomorrow.
To say that the members of the Wildfire Team are outstanding, Paul sincerely praises them.
But it is almost impossible for them to save the money to open such a tavern.
Therefore, this so-called Wildfire Tavern was actually established by the X organization, and the people of the Wildfire Team were only the operators and managers on the surface.
Paul also didn't know the existence of the Covenant. He only knew that behind the Wildfire Tavern was a powerful organization that he could hardly imagine, that's all.
Of course, this does not affect his awe and admiration for X.
Does Paul know that he is working in the Wildfire Tavern for the high salary?
no!
Freedom is more important than money.
If he wanted to work, he wouldn't have become a bounty hunter in the first place.
But, he still stayed.
The reason is simple, he is doing it for X!
Paul has thought more than once, if he performs well here, will he have the opportunity to be attracted by the government in the future?
He was not a fool. Although the bosses didn't say it, he was able to detect that there seemed to be someone who controlled extraordinary power in this X organization.
Otherwise, how to explain those mutated creatures?
There are also some rumors about extraordinary creatures that have been appearing around the world recently.
Combining these, it is easy for people to make some associations.
Now, after nearly a month of work, Paul met someone from that organization for the first time.
He looked at the bounty hunters in the tavern warily, then lowered his voice and asked in a low voice to Hu Peng and Xun You:
"Excuse me, are you two from X?"
"X?"
Hu Peng was slightly startled, but then he immediately reacted.
This X is actually the first letter of the word "Covenant". It seems that it was the idea of their Light Blue Department, so that everyone in the Wildfire Team can use this name to open a tavern.
In this way, some outstanding employees can be absorbed into the organization to supplement Star Alliance's human resources problems.
It turned out that he just said it casually and didn't think much about the noble name.
Looking at Paul's frightened expression now, it actually made him feel a little more mysterious.
