Chapter 1379 - 440: Cooperation Between the Commerce Association and Capricorn
Outside Hunter City.
The hooded Hunter was enjoying his meal.
In Hunter City, you can trade for nearly everything you desire, as long as you possess enough power.
Of course, most Hunters, even as strong as Almi and Rokosi, can only trade for items that seem rare to ordinary people, but in pre-apocalyptic times, they’re hardly considered anything special, like "canned food."
Yet, if the two of them enhance their abilities and accumulate enough currency points, it’s not impossible in the future to trade for foods that could excite even countless gourmets before the apocalypse.
However, Hunters who live such a lifestyle are few and far between.
Hunter City is home to three Legendary Hunters.
The first Legendary Hunter, who is elusive, is the earliest legend of Hunter City. It’s said that even the Commerce Association must bow in front of him, speaking in the most polite manner.
His status is the highest; some say this Hunter may not exist at all, that everything about him could be fabricated.
The second Legendary Hunter is known to be a woman, who became legendary purely by sheer battle prowess.
In people’s imagination, this woman should have a robust physique, akin to a female barbarian.
The third Legendary Hunter is a Hunter who specializes in hunting other Hunters, possessing astonishing combat ability like the second Legendary Hunter, enough to intimidate many in the Three-Tower Battlefield. But he has been recruited into Hunter City as an administrator.
He has thus become part of the Commerce Association.
His duty is to handle those Hunters who are disloyal to Hunter City.
His name is Leslie, adept with weapons, a master of gunplay with a flair for shooting techniques.
Of course, being a Legendary Hunter in Hunter City, the things his bullets can hit extend beyond just an opponent’s physical body.
Leslie has now become the Defender and Order Maintainer of Hunter City.
At this moment, Leslie is accompanied by Hunter City’s second Legendary Hunter, Qing.
The two were dining, with the bubbling aroma of hotpot enticing many to salivate.
But Leslie wasn’t fond of it.
"I really don’t understand, is this method of using chili water to boil a bunch of foods really that delicious?"
"You should know, the cost of eating this could buy a month’s worth of canned food for many."
Leslie is a clean-loving middle-aged man with elegantly groomed mustache, wearing monocles—aiming glasses.
Qing on the other hand wore a double-ponytail, dressed in daring and flamboyant biker attire, resembling a rebellious teen. Her face appeared cute and sexy, emitting "sizzling" sounds, likely from the overwhelming spice.
"I enjoy trying things. I used to be afraid to try them, afraid of getting a stomach ache, but it’s different now. Also, I love eating animal organs now."
Qing smiled while dipping tripe into the hotpot.
"Your mission failed." Leslie originally wanted to exchange pleasantries for a while, but looking at the bubbling red oil hotpot, he decided to get straight to the point.
Qing didn’t mind, she candidly admitted:
"Hmm, that woman’s fiercer than me, sizzle sizzle, though it’s hard to say; if it’s a deathmatch, perhaps I could kill her too."
"She’s a counter to me, skilled in Spiritual Attacks, and I underestimated the briefcase; surprisingly, it’s an extremely powerful weapon, hahaha, it’s fascinating, I nearly died by her hands. Her spiritual erosion is hard to solve; I’ll likely have nightmares for many days, hahaha."
"But she’s not in great shape either, for a while, she won’t be able to continue killing."
Leslie was somewhat surprised.
According to the Commerce Association’s intelligence, killing the woman named Tang Rui would prevent a certain unyieldingly troublesome figure from growing stronger.
Even though he wasn’t clear on the connection there.
But Hunter City had sent Qing, it’s unimaginable that Qing would be defeated.
"Really not eating? This is intestine, rest assured, it’s not from a monster, I bought it from the Commerce Association, goose intestine." Qing used chopsticks to pick up the wrinkled intestine.
Leslie shook his head in disgust:
"Alright, there’s a new task needing you to handle. You know, Hunter City recently launched a new faction mission called Crossing Bunker."
Qing didn’t comprehend:
"Wasn’t it said that people like us can’t enter?"
Leslie nodded:
"Indeed, the task’s constraints limit strength, those of our caliber cannot enter the Bunker, only ordinary Hunters can be dispatched to complete it."
"However, that master has returned. I also received instructions from the Commerce Association to complete a transaction with the master."
"If the master agrees, you may be able to enter the Bunker with his assistance."
Qing shook her head:
"I’m not interested in ordinary people without combat power. I like challenges, something difficult; I want to fight with Leon, the kind who can conquer me. By the way, who is the master you’re referring to? I’m not you, I’m just a Hunter in Hunter City."
Leslie said:
"Trust me, there’s certainly a challenge in it for you. As for the master, he’s the first person who became a legend in Hunter City before us."
Qing became interested.
She wanted to challenge the legend, but the legend was always mysterious, hardly ever in Hunter City.
"Interesting, I’ll take the task. Is he in Hunter City now?"
Leslie said:
"Yes, he’s in his castle."
The largest castle in Hunter City doesn’t belong to the Commerce Association, but to the first Legendary Hunter.
