The Earth People are so Fierce

Chapter 480: No fish when water is clear

Being able to open his arms and let the other party find out how many deadly weapons he is carrying represents the trust and friendship of the people in the nest city.

Many transactions, negotiations, and counting can also be done in secret through the "sign language" hidden under the cloak.

Sure enough, the two held hands for a while, and at the same time they laughed, lifted their cloaks, and embraced each other enthusiastically.

"Old fish, you are not dead!" The connector slapped Zhou Chong's shoulder fiercely with a hand that was enough to slap the tiger to death.

"Tengu, I'm not dead if you die!" Zhou Chong replied with a bear hug enough to crush his spine.

This is meeting an old friend.

For hunters, the nest city has a very special meaning.

In Dragon City, the most popular transcendent occupation is the hunter.

Join the extraordinary team or simply go single-handedly, go deep into the wilderness, dance on the blade, without any restrictions, eat with fists, swords, blood and brains, as long as you have the ability and a little bit of luck, you can become famous overnight , Peaceful, so free, so refreshing!

In order to manage a large number of free and unsophisticated hunters, the "Hunters Association" was established to train, assess, and allocate hunting areas and tasks. Of course, it can also coordinate the contradictions between different extraordinary teams and encounter large-scale battles. Or when the doomsday beasts are infested, they can organize a few to hundreds of different extraordinary teams to enter the battlefield at the same time.

However, the most important duty of the Hunters Association is to collect money.

"Although the transcendent is unmatched, if there is no Red Dragon Army to provide firepower and logistical support, without the support of tens of millions of Longcheng citizens, it is impossible for them to survive and fight in the depths of the mist on their own.

"Therefore, a large part of the harvest of the hunters should be shared by all Longcheng citizens."

Based on this theory, every time a hunter kills a monster, he must pay one-third to one-half of the harvest, with the "hunting tax, special resource collection tax, hunter association management fee, and extraordinary tower" Construction tax, Chilong Army construction tax, special national debt, etc., etc., are paid in name. The higher the level, the higher the tax rate, and the tax rate for those with the realm of God can easily exceed 70%.

Recently, Longcheng launched the "Comprehensive Reconstruction of the Old Community" and the "Three Meals for All Teenagers" plan to show off to the extraordinary, especially the various taxes and fees on the hunters who are fighting on the front line of the business.

On the other hand, many monsters, especially the rarer **** beasts and even the doomsday beasts, have materials in their bodies that are unique strategic materials. It does not mean that the hunters can sell to whomever they want. After the unified acquisition by Chaofan Tower, according to the needs and importance of various departments and projects, it is used where it is most needed.

This method of monopoly purchases often fails to reach the market price and cannot satisfy hunters who lick blood.

For the overall development of Dragon City, high taxes and fees and monopoly purchases are reasonable and necessary.

Human civilization is an inseparable whole, without the general public and the Red Dragon Army as a strong backing, it is indeed impossible to defeat the monster civilization by relying on hunters alone.

But as far as the hunters are concerned, they risked their lives and paid the price of being wounded all over, and even watched their comrades die tragically in the monster’s mouth. Maybe there were still a lot of hidden wounds. After finally killing the monster, they had to hand over more than half for nothing Material, feeling psychologically unbalanced, is also human nature.

Over time, there is always someone who wants to hit the ball.

Just like the flesh and blood of swords, halberds, devil pigs and iron-clad rhinos, this kind of material is large, heavy, and relatively cheap.

Once they encounter rare materials that are relatively small but valuable, such as the crystalized neurospheres of monsters, heart blood, eyeballs, spinal cord, etc., hunters often do not declare to the Hunters Association.

Instead, they secretly hid them and brought them to the black market in the nest city in exchange for the resources they wanted in secret.

Or exchange it for the chips in the big monster arena in the nest city, and gamble in the arena.

It is not important to win or lose. The key point is to clean up all the chips. In the coming year, when the Transcendent Tower will audit all the transcendents, there will be no troubles of huge wealth of unknown origin.

This gray industrial chain connected by smuggled monster materials is an important economic pillar of Chaocheng.

How can the Survival Committee and the Transcendent Tower not know this little trick of the hunter?

However, if the water is clear, there will be no fish. If smuggling and black market transactions are severely cracked down, on the one hand, the enthusiasm of the hunters will be seriously dampened. People do not work hard, "Buddha hunting", and transcendental pagodas are also just fine.

On the other hand, if the hunters do not come to the black market to trade, all the food, drink, and gambling in the nest city, and the thriving tertiary industry will all be over.

You know, the vast majority of the nearly one million people in Chaocheng depend on the tertiary industry to survive.

Countless Longcheng citizens who are under great pressure by zombies and monsters, and in distress, have to go to the nest city to relieve the pressure after every three steps, so as to struggle to survive in this cruel alien world.

Destroying hundreds of thousands of jobs and almost the only channel of venting for the low-level citizens will not do any good to today's Dragon City.

Therefore, as long as the hunters and the gang members in the nest city do not go too far, the Survival Committee and the Transcendent Tower can only turn a blind eye.

In fact, the authorities will choose to let senior hunters form the first wave of arresting forces based on this consideration.

"Pirate Shark" Zhou Chong and the others, used to be regulars of the black market in Chaocheng, have a deep relationship here, and are known as brothers and sisters in many gangs, and they cooperate with each other and have a relative tacit understanding.

"What's the situation now?"

The two finally let go of each other, and Zhou Chong asked the connector named "Tengu".

"Yesterday, the'red eyebrow' Su Lun of the Golden Tooth Gang brought Jin Ye's meaning, saying that hundreds of thieves from outside ran into Golden Tooth Nest City, and some people secretly opened a forbidden drug factory here. After taking the forbidden drug, they all become crazy and powerful?"

Tengu said, "Regardless of the Golden Tooth Gang or our gangs, everyone most hates gangsters and gangsters who don't follow the rules of the world, especially these guys who burn their brains with forbidden drugs.

"Everyone comes out and mixes, it's nothing more than asking for money, you want to make money with anger, these **** are doing things in Golden Nest City, that is to ruin everyone's jobs, and even the sales channels for your hunters... Right?

"What's more, Lord Jin, who has not shown up for a long time, speaks himself.

"Then all the gangs are naturally mobilized to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the entire Golden Tooth Nest City.

"We think so. The other party committed hundreds of robberies outside in one breath, plundering a large amount of training resources, and naturally they have to go to the black market in Chaocheng to sell the stolen goods.

"If you don't sell the stolen goods, it will be directly used as raw materials to refine some new'shenchang capsules.'

"And refining a large number of Shenbian capsules naturally requires a large-scale workshop, factory, or at least a well-equipped laboratory.

"From our experience in refining various types of genetic agents, a lot of waste gas and waste water will be generated during the refining process, and a lot of psychic energy will be consumed.

"So, we focused on investigating hundreds of large and small black markets, laboratories and private workshops in Chaocheng.

"Especially in several areas where private medicine refining workshops are relatively dense, we have collected groundwater samples there for analysis. As a result, we found that the underground wastewater in three areas contained suspected ‘shenchang capsule’ ingredients."

A large number of mad scientists dormant in the nest city.

And the lunatic cultivator who tried to use genetic medicine to break through the limit of life.

The pharmacists here are more professional than outsiders imagine.

"Because you have reminded us not to stun the snake, we dare not search in a big way, nor do we dare to go too deep into these areas."

Tengu continued, "At present, I only know that these areas are located in the "three-nothing" zone at the junction of the spheres of influence of the major gangs. There were originally many "lone wolves" that did not belong to each gang. At most two or three people can establish For a small underground laboratory or black workshop, we are not sure, which underground black workshop is the target you are looking for."

"It doesn't matter, the search range can be reduced to such a small size, it has reduced us a lot of trouble, then, let's see ours!"

"Pirate Shark" Zhou Chong said, "Everyone prepares, debugs the'Neural Tactical Data Link System', checks the surrounding environment, and locks on two known targets."

Like the senior hunters, Meng Chao rolled his eyes, zoomed his pupils, and concentrated.

With the interaction of neural data, the walls of the surrounding warehouses seem to become transparent, and their sights can pass through the walls unobstructed and see the panorama outside.

Layers of illegal buildings are like building blocks built by urchins, growing wildly from all directions, devouring large areas of the sky, leaving only vents smaller than the patio.

The mottled building facade is covered with colorful graffiti. Many graffiti is sprayed with fluorescent paint mixed with monster blood. Under the dim light, it exudes a strange charm, like a monster. Jumped out of the wall.

In order to attract business, almost all buildings are covered with neon lights and display screens, or use extremely charming brushstrokes to outline a fascinating human body, or play monsters running rampant, knocking each other into the gut. It's a **** and exciting scene.

Many young people wearing cloaks, pedaling spring pulleys, and ghost masks flashed past the poor streets in a swift manner. No one knows what smuggled materials and blood are hidden under their cloaks. Bargaining chips, deadly weapons, or crazy drugs.

Someone laughed at the gate of the Monster Arena, throwing small chips into the invisible sky, and banging on the ground with a "ding-ding" sound.

Someone cried silently beside the garbage dump, and after shed the last tear, clenched their fists, showed fierce light in their eyes, and walked into the darkness.

Countless bizarre sights, together exuding abnormal, weird, and unstoppable vitality.

This is Chaocheng.
