Star Hunters

1、Redeemer

    mk-1 combat type is the oldest surviving robot on earth, life expectancy are more than 1000 years, constant wear and tear makes a team of 12 mk-1 type together when patrolling, even at a distance, you can clearly hear the sound of harsh metal friction.

    Yang Yuanzhi's thin body hidden a building that has not yet completely collapsed, in the ground where the proportion of carbon dioxide concentration reached 80%. Linke brand h1 air purifying mask coated with anti-reflective 'paint' is a product of the Lin family's military industry 80 years ago. Yang Yuanzhi was cautiously holding his breath, trying his best to keep his body and the air at the same temperature to avoid being discovered by the mk-1's heat sensor, waiting patiently for the group of 12 robot patrols to go far away.

    mk-1 type in both sides are ancient ruins of the potholes of the street, along the daily fixed route to go forward, see the last mk-1 is about to pass from ten meters away, Yang Yuanzhi's stomach indisputably grunts a sound.

    Crunch! The 12 robots neatly stopped and turned back, without any disguised front, and two beams of light emerged from the two hollow eyes, sweeping towards the place where Yang Yuanzhi was hiding.

    Yang Yuanzhi secretly smiled bitterly, if not for the whole three days in the stomach did not eat into a little, this situation will definitely not appear. Of course, Yang Yuanzhi did not have to take such a big risk to do a vote without capital.

    The palm of the hand can not help but tighten, kh2 series improved lightsaber handle has been full of sweat, really want to be found, said also had to fight to the death to kill a blood road. But Yang Yuanzhi is not at all confident in the current state of the body, not to mention the opposite is 12 lb3 high energy beam guns, can easily penetrate Yang Yuanzhi's body without any armor protection.

    The ancestor bless! Yang Yuanzhi to the collapse of half of the low wall shrunk again, after a secret prayer in his heart, about 5 meters away from the left hand side, a sudden clattering sound, a one-meter-long sawtooth mouse whooshed out, sawtooth mouse figure just exposed in the mk-1 sight of less than two seconds, 12 lb3 will be issued at the same time half basket half red beam, puff sound continuous sound After 12 consecutive puffs, the sawtooth rat was heard to let out a mournful cry, and then the whole street, including both sides, fell into the darkness of dead silence again.

    The crunching sound is far away, Yang Yuanzhi long out a stifled breath, this area is often infested with robots, after the night is absolutely not allowed to have any life forms, even sawtooth rats such creatures do not dare to easily appear in one area, today is really good luck ah.

    After some emotion Yang Yuanzhi left the hiding place, the body in the rubble deftly jumped, instantly came to the sawtooth rat's body, looking at the sawtooth rat sent torso that had been lb3 beaten into mud, could not help but gulp a mouthful of saliva, the kh2 light knife to the belt a 'plug', squatting hands cupped the skin 'fur' and blood mixture to the mouth.

    After no longer able to find the part that can eat, Yang Yuanzhi slowly raised his head, but unfortunately took a look at the remaining head of the sawtooth mouse, and fragmented skin 'fur', can not help but secretly heartache. Jagged tooth rat's skin 'fur' is a good thing, a complete skin 'fur' can be exchanged for 50 cera, 500,000 cera can go to the cosmic air port with the redemption card can be exchanged for a temporary citizenship card, and then spend 10,000 cera on the last Monday shift redemption ship, you can leave this hellish place on earth.

    Yang Yuanzhi felt the cold stomach began to appear a trace of warmth, carefully returned to the hidden hiding place, legs crossed and began to use the practice of Qi to help the stomach as soon as possible to convert the blood and flesh of the sawtooth mouse into the current urgent calories.

    Yang Yuanzhi is a practitioner, a profession that is an ancient existence throughout the Interstellar Alliance. Yang Yuanzhi himself does not understand how to become a practitioner, it seems to be born to self-cultivation. What I remember is only in nightmares, it seems that at a very young age was forcibly pulled from home by a group of reinforced people, from the side of their parents, and then with dozens of 7-8 year old children to a dark cabin, after a long flight, and then kicked out of the cabin, appeared on this planet. The last memory of each nightmare is a bloody mess on the ground after two bodies were beaten to pieces by an ls1 type high powered gun, and two heads rolling helplessly on the ground, with two pairs of sad and desperate eyes on the front of the heads.

    It was only later that Yang Yuanzhi figured out from that old guy, Karan, that the planet called Redemption on the interstellar map had an ancient name - Earth. 6000 years ago when the Earth was on the verge of overpopulation, mankind produced a new doctrine of existence - Neo-evolution. The neo-evolutionary theory regarded those humans who could not withstand the biochemical enhancement after the instrumentation as the inferior breed, and the existence of the inferior breed only led to the human race being in a completely beaten position against the alien creatures, so the fate of the inferior breed could only be destroyed. With the spread of the new evolutionary theory on earth and written into the human convention, almost all children at the age of 7-8 years old, are sent to the testing station, once found that the data can not meet the standard, these children can only wait for the euthanasia. This state of affairs continued until 5333 A.D., after endless exploration, mankind discovered the first planet suitable for life 1.23 million light-years away, mankind scrambled to escape from the pandemonium to the extreme of the ghostly place, after the expansion of the years, mankind in the continuous discovery of one planet with life after another, the human living space has been greatly expanded.

    In 5880 A.D., the founder of the new redemption doctrine, Lewinsky, put forward the theory of interstellar survival rights, believing that the inferior breed could regain interstellar citizenship through redemption. This theory was soon echoed by the noblewomen of the Interstellar Alliance who had nothing to do all day, and soon became popular in the upper class of the Alliance. In 5883 A.D., the theory of interstellar survival was brought up for discussion at the Star Alliance Congress, and it was decided that Earth would be renamed Redemption Star, and that all inferior species would be sent to Redemption Star, where they would be left to fend for themselves in the harsh environment.

    It's funny, the new redemption doctrine has been implemented for 50 years, but there has never been a single IQ and physical test failed, the so-called inferior species can complete their own redemption, there are only the redemption committee every year a large number of canceled redemption cards, symbolizing the end of the lives of countless children abandoned to the earth because of failed physical tests.

    Now the only original creatures on Earth can still survive have been few, the harsh living environment, the original variety of creatures continue to extinct, according to testimony can still reproduce on Earth no more than 100 kinds of creatures, and sawtooth rats is the largest number of a, sawtooth rats prototype is everyone on the planet beaten rats.

    I remember when the earth was still beautiful, a far-sighted scientist said that even if the human race on earth died out, rats would still be resilient.

    Warm airflow in the body along the edge of the body after doing an irregular ellipse run, slowly converge at the chest quietly lurking down. Yang Yuanzhi opened his eyes, the darkness of the abandoned city dead-like silence, only the walls collapsed after the 'bare' 'exposed' in the air of the steel stretched out thin arms, swaying slightly in the whistling wind, emitting a soft whimpering sound.

    Yang Yuanzhi's target for this night's venture out is two kilometers away from an Earth interstellar port a peripheral outpost, the outpost in addition to once every ten minutes mk-1 type robot patrol passed by, inside there is only one mk-2 type robot standing guard, the task is to guard a peripheral territory to prevent inferior people from sneaking into the port to steal the port within A mechanical brigade of pitifully little material.

    Yang Yuanzhi's purpose is to get a lb3, this backward thing in the Star Alliance's military equipment, is absolutely garbage in the garbage, but on Earth is really the most powerful weapon, get to the redemption field of the black market, can be sold to 20000 Sierra high price, good luck if the buyer can also send a few jagged rat meat made of canned goods.

    Pull open the zipper on the jagged mouse leather gloves, 'reveal' inside the ancient fluorescent table, the hour hand is pointing to the position of 5:00 a.m., from now until 6:00 a.m., the patrol in the interstellar port is not out, this is Yang Yuanzhi foot observation for half a month before reaching the conclusion.

    Yang Yuanzhi only one hour, within an hour, to take out the mk2 in the sentry box, to seize a lb3, Yang Yuanzhi only weapon that can be used is the hand this expiration date has passed 80 years kh2 lightsaber, this is Yang Yuanzhi 5 years ago found in the garbage and from the black market for parts to repair and improve the kh2, alone is the inside of the high-energy power supply spent 1000 sera. This is the only weapon Yang Yuanzhi can survive on Earth can rely on.

    After a replenishment of Yang Yuanzhi, the whole body is in a highly sensitive state, jagged rat leather shoes on a foot thick dust, did not leave half a trace, five minutes of high-speed sneaking forward after hiding behind a half-human-high crumbling fence, the gap outward to observe the guard tower at 30 meters.

    A 5-meter-high concrete pillar erected on the right side of the sentry box, a holographic camera obnoxiously doing 360-degree movements back and forth, as long as any life form enters within 10 meters of the sentry box, there is no way to escape the capture of the camera's all-round lens. Yang Yuanzhi 'touched' an ancient flying go-getter from under his dark leather jacket, a weapon polished out of high purity titanium alloy, the exterior coated with a layer of coffee 'colored' invisible paint, the thin edges polished sharp, this was the helper Yang Yuanzhi used to capture the sawtooth rats.

    The mk2 is made of refined titanium alloy, and its chest, head and other vital parts are thickened and armored. Armor treatment, even lb3 is also difficult to penetrate these places. The only part that Yang Yuanzhi can lay hands on is the long neck of mk2, kh2 light knife in the hands of biochemically treated reinforced people, can easily cut the neck of mk2, Yang Yuanzhi naturally does not have the brute force of reinforced people, but can concentrate the whole body's strength in a flash to the hands, to achieve the same effect as reinforced people or even do better.

2、Hunting

    mk2 continue to turn their backs on Yang Yuan with the eyes of the perceptron to observe the wire, Yang Yuanzhi waiting for the opportunity to come, dark leather wrapped body silently from behind a low wall scampered out, as black 'lightning' pounced on the back of mk2, an sound kh2 light knife power was turned on.

    mk2's heard behind the sound of opening the lightsaber power, the neck did a 180-degree twist, saw Yang Yuanzhi persistent smile, the computer program instantly made a judgment that this is an extremely dangerous creature, mk2 hands lb3 has not been raised, orange and red "lightsaber has appeared on the neck, a flash of red light click, mk2's head fell to the ground, splashed a burst of smoke, followed by a shower of sparks The mk2 twitched and shook like a cramp. After a clattering sound, Yang Yuanzhi's mouth 'showed' a smug smile when the mk2 up to two meters tall body fell with a bang.

    Time was running out, and mk2's computer was connected to the central computer at the starport. If you don't want to be found by the mk1 patrol dragnet and then beaten into a pile of mush by lb3, you have to fight for time.

    Picked up lb3 into a special bag with anti-detection paint and then carry it, then use the thin sharp cut of the fly to cut the back of the mk2 head on a rubber gasket, 'reveal' a thumb-sized hole, and then use the kh2 to the hole a 'plug', a burnt paste smell filled out, the mk2 computer chip was completely destroyed, after removing the hidden danger of being recorded by the chip image, Yang Yuanzhi The body flew towards the corner where the patrol was hiding before.

    Back in the corner, Yang Yuanzhi skillfully and quickly moved a few huge pieces of concrete, 'reveal' low a manhole cover, forcefully moved to the manhole cover after the body agile into it, standing on the steps inside the manhole cover pulled back into place, Yang Yuanzhi once again immersed in the boundless darkness.

    This is an abandoned sewer for hundreds of years, for this operation Yang Yuanzhi has been back and forth countless times to explore, close your eyes can not go wrong, the infinite darkness Yang Yuanzhi like a jagged rat general stick in the sewer wall, flexible and fast crawling, chattering ears can only hear the sound of wind, and is the sound of sewage flowing emitting a stench.

    I don't know how much time has passed, when the ears hear the patter and scintillation of jagged rats crawling, Yang Yuanzhi stopped in front of a raised price, tower sound, a little thumb beam appeared in the darkness, in the sewer wall found the mark carved before starting, Yang Yuanzhi turned off the switch on the fluorescent meter, along the ladder began to climbing upwards.

    This is a street that looks a bit dilapidated, gloomy morning occasionally blowing a gale, blowing the street for a moment of smoke and dust 'dance. The bang sounded under a street lamp that had long been unlit, and a manhole cover was pushed open by the steel pipe lamp post, revealing Yang Yuanzhi's head with h1 air purifier. Yang Yuanzhi carefully look around, found no danger, the body civet cat general flexible scampered out, quickly moved the manhole cover back to the original place, along the street an alley scampered in.

    This area is too close to the cosmic air port, residents at any time there are robot patrol pairs as intruders hunted, so the buildings on this street is not even a resident. Yang Yuanzhi in these abandoned hundreds of years in the city deftly through, in the dawn of the morning 'color' black 'leather' wrapped under the speed of amazingly fast, ten meters away from the normal look can only see a black shadow.

    After darting for half an hour, Yang Yuanzhi drilled into a subway entrance of ancient times, ran wildly along the tracks, and finally stopped in front of a section of the wall, and pressed his right hand on the wall, and after a rumbling sound, the wall 'revealed' a door.

    After flashing into the door before you have time to turn around, grunting a sharp sound towards the back of Yang Yuanzhi, Yang Yuanzhi quickly raised his right foot, with the left foot as the center of a 180-degree axis, the right foot forward a stretch. The wheelchair that came in front of him was as fast as a speeding car on the highway, and in the blink of an eye it came to the front, and Yang Yuanzhi's foot was right against the wheelchair.

    A creak, the wheelchair stopped, a ball-shaped object on the wheelchair because of inertia 'flew up, ang sound, kh2 power on, the ball object whoosh very consciously bounced back.

    Hey! j, how many times have I told you, don't challenge my patience. You do this every time, believe it or not, I will use kh2 to cut open your head now, and then pee 'inside'? Yang Yuanzhi, who took off the air purifier, swished the lightsaber in his hand on j's head, and the two antennae on j's head of the orb-shaped body shrank back in with a swish.

    Giggling a bit the wheelchair j slid down, giant chicken claw-like arms gripping the wheelchair in front of his body, jarred his voice and begged for mercy, Yang! Don't be mad, I was just so involved in experimenting with my new race car that I didn't notice you come in.

    Yang Yuanzhi smiled badly and kicked in the wheelchair, two mechanical legs under the body of the round ball j, in the intellectual simply can not keep up, was even the wheelchair with j together tumbled down.

    This is your punishment for always using the living room as a runway.

    The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers.

    Hi, Jan. Where have you been for the past ten days? The electricity authority sent an email, reminding us of the electricity bill, and we only have 300 selas in our account, and we are still 25 selas short of enough.

    Got it, I'll deposit 1000 sera into the account later. By the way, how is old William these days?

    As soon as J heard William's name, he immediately said, Ahem, Don't mention this crazy guy who knows all about alcohol and chip labs all day long, and before you left there were 3,000 Sierra in his account, and he told the old guy to buy alcohol. Now he should still be on the floor of the lab drunk as a mud.

    After entering the door is a rectangular hall of hundreds of square meters, on both sides are piles and piles of robot parts, Yang Yuanzhi in addition to going out to make money, spare time spent on these seemingly broken parts, j is his hand-assembled robots. What people play what birds, usually 'sex' unrestrained Yang Yuanzhi, make out the robot is also a restless thing. All day long, he thought about using various parts to improve the speed of the wheelchair, and then took the floor in the middle of the hall as a runway.

    The William in Yang Yuanzhi's mouth is another master in this basement, to be precise, a tired man that Yang Yuanzhi picked up. Today's Earth is no longer just a place of exile for lowlifes, but also a place of exile for some criminals who are not enough to be sentenced to death in major star systems. According to William himself, he was originally a researcher in a famous chip research laboratory of the Interstellar Alliance, because of an experimental error, resulting in a big explosion, the explosion caused 3 deaths and 18 injuries, William was also thrown to Earth because of the crime of malfeasance.

    More than a year ago there was a deal with smugglers Karan, leaving in front of the vampire Karan's sin bar saw the rotten William, the body was also stripped naked, just a pair of shorts left. It was winter, and as long as no one rescued, within an hour, William would freeze into a popsicle. Yang Yuanzhi did not see the death of the habit of not saving, by hand to get William back. Soon Yang Yuanzhi paid the price for his rashness, woke up the old William relied on Yang Yuanzhi, how refused to leave. The good thing is that this old guy in addition to alcoholism, there are really goods in the stomach, a lot of mechanical problems are William to help solve the long time Yang Yuanzhi also got used to. This half year also bad brain lent William 100,000 Sierra, got a small chip lab, from then on Yang Yuanzhi lived a life of fear, because William's laboratory, every now and then always have to do something. Last month an explosion almost destroyed the hiding place, if not for the walls are steel and concrete, it is not easy to say that this place can still exist.

    When the money was borrowed, old William promised to get the best mech chip and sell it for a good price, enough for two people to leave this hellish place on earth, from now on, Yang Yuanzhi's 100,000 Sierra is estimated to be a scoop. This matter makes Yang Yuanzhi heartache for a long time, more people will be more expenses, half a year only rely on a little jagged rat skin to sell, has been a bit unable to make ends meet, otherwise Yang Yuanzhi will not risk to hit the port idea.

    There are three doors at the end of the hall, the left is J's snail's house cum warehouse, the right is Yang Yuanzhi's bedroom, and the largest room inside the top, where the nitrate 'fur' was originally located and the assembly workshop, is now occupied by William in the name of the laboratory.

    Reaching out to press a button on the side of the door, a door rose upward, stepping into William's laboratory, things were not as j subjective guess, old William just lying asleep on the table, saliva dripping down the long goatee.

    From the ceiling lighted headlights, the old William should have been engaged in the work, the table on a test instrument with a coin-sized chip. Looking at the old William cold involuntary shivering, Yang Yuanzhi psychological a little unhappy all in the back of the mind, reached out to bring a space cotton suit, gently to the old William cover.

    Before leaving the door Yang Yuan Zhi did not forget to turn off the headlights, just closed the door, j and began to endlessly abetted: You see it? This old madman, not his money he does not care, sleep does not know to turn off the lights.

    Jan! You've indulged him too much, as I meant to ......

    "With a bang, Yang Yuanzhi entered his bedroom and closed the door behind him, shutting out J's ramblings as well.

    j is Yang Yuanzhi according to a good housekeeper model design and manufacture of robots, but also do not know where the original error, make such a long-winded thing.

    Yang Yuanzhi's bedroom is very simple, a bed, a bathroom, and is full of piles of books of various disciplines. The room is very quiet, you can only hear the faint sound of vibration when the air purification is running in the basement at the bottom level.

    Get into the bathroom, take a hot shower, change into a loose outfit, fall into bed and sleep.

3、Sin Bar

    When Yang Yuanzhi got up, the ancient electronic clock on the wall showed the time to be 20 o'clock. After rushing into the bathroom and tossing and turning, he came out and said to a loudspeaker at the bedside, J, what else is there to eat at home?

    Jan, there's half a sawtooth mouse in the fridge, braised or grilled?

    Grill it.

    Yes.

    Yang ....... Without waiting for j to continue talking, Yang Yuanzhi had already pressed a switch quickly, not giving j a chance to continue abetting.

    Opened a miniature computer at the bedside, logged on to a website of intelligent machinery and browsed some new posts. In less than half an hour, the red light at the head of the bed came on, Yang Yuanzhi closed the computer, opened the door and walked out.

    Jan .......

    I wish you would shut up if it's not important, and I won't rule out selling you to that smuggler Karan if it affects my appetite.

    j very cooperative stopped talking, mechanical hands on the arm of a button pressed, the left wall flashed out a door, then from inside slid out a small table, came to a stop in the middle, four feet on the side of the ground wheels were stretched out three fixed frame. j very skilled end on a plate of aroma, baked into a golden 'color' is not out of the oil jagged mouse, and then set up a knife and fork, spread the napkin. The red light on j's brain flashed, which is a precursor to talking again. Yang Yuanzhi immediately preempted: Karan. The red light on j's head immediately went dark.

    Yang Yuanzhi heart a burst of complacency secretly said: count on this kid knows what he's doing. The thought of here can not help but laugh, think j this year by William every other day to get to the laboratory to dismantle the fun, it is no wonder j to William resentment deep.

    The wind swept away the food on the plate, returned to the bedroom to change clothes, carrying the bag containing lb3 out, Yang Yuanzhi said to j: I go to Karan that, you watch the home. He said he didn't wait for j to answer, and took the air purifier with him to go out also.

    After walking along the old subway for ten minutes, when we came to an intersection, a hover car swished to a stop in front of Yang Yuanzhi, and a black head stuck out of it and shouted at him, Hey! Man, you want a car?

    This guy is a black man, a mouthful of Chinese is very smooth, in fact, it can not be helped, since 75 years ago Lin Xingdong became the speaker of the interstellar alliance, the alliance assembly formally passed a resolution to determine the interstellar alliance in the use of the largest population of Chinese to become the official language of the interstellar, now even the basic textbooks of elementary school, are Chinese.

    Sin Bar!

    Suspended out of the tail emerged a burst of red light, 'liquid' fuel burning fiercely after a burst of water, the car along the subway line whoosh out of the shadow, can only see the top of the red light in the flashing and flashing.

    Where there are people living there is trade, where there is trade there is taxation, where there is taxation, there is smuggling. The Earth was quiet for some days after the great human migration, and at one time only a few major airports had some people left behind. As the inferior people and criminals continued to be banished back to Earth, the quiet Earth for a hundred years gradually came alive again in some parts.

    Z City's predecessor is the n1 cosmic air port, the specific location roughly in the southwest of what was once China's Zhejiang Province, due to the greenhouse effect, the north and south poles of the icebergs completely melted, the Earth's continental area has been mercilessly swallowed by the sea more than half, Z City's east 10 kilometers away is the dark sea.

    The hover car stopped silently in front of a fortress-like building. Between two dim wall lights was a dark green 'stripped door, and on the right hand side of the door was a card swiper, but all guests who wanted to enter must first swipe their redemption card, which was hung around their necks when they were abandoned at Redemption Star. The electronic light on the redemption card lights up once every three years to remind the card holder to go to the air port detention office to replace the new card, and those who do not go for a new card within the specified time will be judged to be dead.

    This is Karan's lair Sin Bar, the card swiper is to prevent some restless people in the inside of the trouble, Redemption Star merchant industry is strictly protected by law, once someone is businessman complaints, and provide evidence of crime, this person's life on Earth is even the end. Once a businessman complains and provides evidence of a crime, the person's life on Earth is over. He will never be able to leave Redemption, not to mention that if he is wanted, he will become the target of countless bounty hunters in the Interstellar Alliance.

    Bounty hunters are a special profession. After some criminals are exiled to Earth, their past enemies can post the corresponding bounty offer on the hunting network, and the bounty hunters can receive the bounty after taking the order to kill the target and take the target's redemption card. Of course, in the Star Alliance on other planets personal intentional killing is illegal, but in front of the huge bounty, there will still be bounty hunters desperate to find a suitable target on the hunting and killing network to take the order, after completing the task can still take the target's Star Citizen card through the network to get the bounty.

    The company is also a bounty hunter, but unfortunately, as a bad citizen, is unable to leave the city of Z, so can receive little business, so occasionally will take some black market work to do. lb3 is exactly one of the work Yang Yuanzhi from the hands of Karan.

    Yang Yuanzhi do bounty hunter because life is forced, but also in order to leave the earth this ghost place early to do it again, although he does not like to kill, but this world is like this, sometimes in order to survive, must go to do something they do not like to do.

    drop sound, the glass door opened, a deafening heavy metal into the ears, Yang Yuanzhi frowned, then with a smile and began to walk inside.

    All along the way are some crazy men and women writhing madly, but after being exiled to this hellhole, not many of them are not fast degenerating.

    A hot chick wearing a short delicate skirt appeared in front of Yang Yuanzhi, holding a bottle of dark beer in her left hand, her right hand on Yang Yuanzhi's shoulder, with a slutty smile at the corner of her mouth, her breasts straining upwards, showing a deep 'cleavage' in front of Yang Yuanzhi.

    Hi! Little handsome, won't you buy me a drink?

    Get lost, you bitch. Not waiting for Yang Yuanzhi to speak, a strong man on the side reached out and pushed the blocking chicken out of the way, and went up to Yang Yuanzhi and 'showed' a smile and said, Yang, the boss told the brothers to take turns waiting for you here for three days.

    The man was born with an ugly face, a head higher than Yang Yuanzhi, the waist bulge not to mention the clothes hidden in a sl series of thermal pistol, Yang Yuanzhi know him as a bodyguard around Karan Ken, usually quite familiar. Seeing him look quite anxious, can't help but mutter in the heart Karan again in what name, but face is smiling and said: Hey! Ken, your face is so ugly, did you let that Jessie 'slut' clip your dick off?

    Hey! Yang, you the bad boy who has not even touched the woman 'hair'. Said Ken leaned into Yang Yuanzhi, fiercely lowered his voice and said, The boss is looking for you to have an urgent matter, box 7 on the third floor.

    Yang Yuanzhi expressed understanding nodded, along the steel welded building all the way up, Ken then vigilantly looked around, and then looked back as he walked, slowly followed.

    The second floor is planning to continue up, see the third floor at the entrance of the building stood two more big men, is a drunk guy to shoo down, perhaps a little impatient to be pestered, a big man cursed: Go to hell, drunk.

    Then the unlucky drunken man was kicked down and rolled down the hallway. Yang Yuanzhi's body dodged to the side, allowing the unlucky man to roll down smoothly before he looked up and shouted upwards, Hey! Jamie, Lao Chen, why so angry?

4、Soul of Darkness

    Damn, count this kid lucky, if the boss bumped into, directly a gunshot burst his head. The Chinese face of the old Chen replied with a bitter smile, while the black Jamie reached out to remove the bag behind Yang Yuanzhi, and then by the old Chen check some Yang Yuanzhi, found no a situation, only by the old Chen carrying the bag led Yang Yuanzhi towards the inside. 3 floor although there are a dozen boxes, but only Karan and his bodyguards can come to the third floor, usually the entrance of the building are guarded.

    When he came to Box 7, Chen pressed a twist by the door, and an eerie, low voice came out of the door's speaker and said, Is Yang here?

    It's me. Yang Yuanzhi answered and swept a glance at the pinhole monitor by the door, calculating in his heart that if he let J hack into the computer system here, he wondered if he could control the surveillance system here.

    The 80 cm thick special armored door banged open, Yang Yuanzhi and Lao Chen walked in, the middle of the box is a huge sofa, sitting in the middle of the tall guy with gray hair and gloomy eyes, it is the largest smuggling head of Z City, Karan. The four corners of the room stood four big men ready to go, each of them more than two meters tall, a glance at it is known to be reinforced. The four men's eyes are focused on Yang Yuanzhi's body, a hand always placed in the pocket of the cloak, as long as Yang Yuanzhi has any movement, the short gun in his arms will immediately pull out, without mercy to speak Yang Yuanzhi beaten into a sieve.

    Karan, I've brought what you want. Yang Yuanzhi smiled and nodded towards Karan, who squeezed out a smile to indicate Yang Yuanzhi to sit down, then looked around, made a gesture and said, Yang is my friend, you all go out.

    The others, including Old Chen, went out, and Old Karan poured Yang Yuanzhi a glass of strong white wine, then pointed to the seat opposite and said, Yang, sit down and have a drink with me, this is the Wuliang 'liquid' that you Chinese get from the Naimex, you Chinese all like this bell wine.

    Yang Yuanzhi looked at the wine in the glass and frowned, dissatisfied with Karan said: Old Karan, you know I never drink, what is the matter you say, as long as the price is fair, I can take the job I will take.

    Don't get excited, young man, look at this first. Karan smiled and pushed the computer on the table in front of Yang Yuanzhi, who looked down at the top of the monitor was a file material.

    Yang Yuanzhi, male, 19 years old, height: 175 cm, weight 65 kg.

    Exiled to Redemption Star    9 years ago, family background is ominous, occupation is ominous, address is ominous.

    Nine years ago when he first appeared full of scars, holding a choked adult sawtooth rat appeared on the black market of redemption, and since then has been selling sawtooth rat's skin 'fur' for a living. Five years ago, he began to take some mechanical repair work to do, and often get some of the military supplies in the cosmic airports for sale.

    Conclusion: The combat power is roughly equivalent to that of a first-class enhanced person, probably good at stealthy theft, and should be quite familiar with all the underground passages of Z City.

    After reading the information, Yang Yuanzhi 'showed' a bitter smile and looked at the still gloomy Karan across the table and said, The information is basically accurate.

    No, no, no, I've had my eye on you for a long time lad. These guys under me are all rice buckets, and they actually came with such a piece of crap information to deliver. The attack on mk2 in the air port today was your work, right? Using such old-fashioned goods like kh2, you were actually able to cut mk2's neck with a single blow. In addition to your skills, your combat strength should be at least at the level of a level three enhanced human. Karan's gaze『forced』to come over, Yang Yuan Zhi refused to evade to meet it.

    You cunning and miserly old man, let me get lb3 is to test me, right? Don't beat around the bush, so test me certainly not intend to relief me.

    Smart. Karan smiled, the gloom on his face lightened a bit, reached out and pressed on the desktop, a huge monitor on the right wall lit up, Yang Yuanzhi turned his head to look over, there appeared three bloody words hunting network.

    Yang Yuanzhi saw this heart could not help but be surprised, if in the search bar to enter the words abandoned soul, you can search for this is a registered bounty hunter in the hunt network, in the hunt network hunter ranking 12,288. And this name abandoned soul is exactly Yang Yuanzhi's id.

    Hunting network appeared 48 years ago, the site is undoubtedly a mysterious and incomparable existence, once a hacker master tried to hack into the hunting network to steal the information of registered hunters, the result is that every guy who tries to hack into the site, without exception, within five hours the computer was anti-intrusion, even the motherboard were burned to garbage. After this happened hundreds of times, no one dared to try to invade the hunting network. It can be said that it is the hunt network to understand the countless personal grudges, but also created a bounty hunter such a profession.

    The process of becoming a registered hunter on hunting.com is very simple, first register an id to the site, then take a single sale and complete the bounty task to the hunting network to pay the bill, after receiving confirmation will be able to obtain the qualification of hunter, while having a position on the hunter list. The way to get the bounty is also very simple, after the bounty task is confirmed, the short mailbox will receive a storage cabinet address and password, hunters find the storage cabinet, there will be an envelope inside, there will be a bank card, the bounty exists inside, this card will also follow the id forever.

    The only thing that cannot be explained about the hunting network is that the Star Alliance can't do anything about it. The possible explanation is that the Star Alliance is a loose organization with more than a hundred Federation nations, large and small, each with their own agenda and will only buy into the interest. Another reason is that even if the head of a particular federal state wants to crack down on the hunting network, he will be facing the guns of tens of thousands of bounty hunters in the Star Alliance.

    Karan walked to the screen, tapped a web page with his finger, and then looked back at Yang Yuanzhi.

    On the web page, a picture of Karan appears, and underneath it, it says, Bounty: Karan, Dickov, now identified as a legitimate merchant on the planet Redemption, with a bounty of 500,000 sera. Mission objective: death.

    If only the bounty is offered but no bounty hunter takes the order, the bounty automatically expires after 30 days. What's deadly is that the comment field below the bounty clearly says, The order has been taken, and behind this line is drawn a bat with an open mouth 'showing' sharp teeth, people who are familiar with the hunting network know that this is the bounty hunter organization Dark Soul on the right side of the hunting network "The mark of the bounty hunter organization on the right side of the hunting network.

    If you are a frequent visitor to the hunting website, you know that the Dark Soul is a hunter organization ranked 386th on the hunter list, the biggest habit of this organization is that every time you accept a mission, it will state that within half a month of accepting the order, if the target prey is not killed, then the Dark Soul will actively give up this prey.

    Although this habit of Dark Soul is a bit of a claptrap, but Dark Soul has never missed a record within half a month since it was registered, so no one has ever despised and ridiculed this habit of Dark Soul. The dark soul of this habit, it can even be said that as long as the dark soul took the bounty, then it is certain that the dark soul definitely think sure to kill the target in half a month. In other words, any target that the Dark Soul takes orders from, it is the same as receiving a life charm, not far from death.

5. Dealings with Karan

    Yang Yuanzhi really does not understand, even if Karan judged himself to have the strength of a level three enhanced person, it is impossible to help Karan much, Karan's bodyguards around, which one is not a level five enhanced person strength. Not to mention that Karan should have learned from the Internet that the Dark Soul had hunted the target, there are several strength than Karan is much stronger.

    Yang Yuanzhi is very reluctant to be involved in this incident, although not a lot of casual work from Karan here to do, but in Karan's work, never get a good price, so Yang Yuanzhi very much hate this guy Karan, not to mention care about his death. Karan is impossible to know that he is abandoned soul, so what is the point of showing me this? Yang Yuanzhi thought of this and made a surprised expression to look at Karan.

    Well, lad. Now you should be all too aware of what I'm in for, right?

    Shit! Old Karan, you don't expect me to protect you, do you? Any bodyguard under you can easily smash my head. Yang Yuanzhi made a panicked look, and Karan hurriedly signaled to take it easy.

    According to your material, you used to make a living by capturing sawtooth rats all year round, so you must be very familiar with all the underground passages in this city, and now I need you to help me escape from the underground passages.

    I am familiar with the underground passages, but you can't hide in the underground passages for the rest of your life, right? Yang Yuanzhi asked with a bitter smile.

    No, no, no, just help me avoid the chase for 48 hours, and you will receive 200,000 sera when you complete the mission.

    Why is it 48 hours? Yang Yuanzhi asked, pretending not to understand, but in fact, it was already clear in his heart that 13 days had passed since the day the Dark Soul received the order, and now there were still 3 hours and 15 minutes before 0:00, according to the past records of the Dark Soul, almost every The Dark Souls have been hunted for almost every target on the 13th day, which is probably another habit of the Dark Souls.

    Don't ask why? Knowing too much is not good for you, you only need to answer whether to do or not to do. Karan suddenly sank his face and looked over, Yang Yuanzhi faintly 'revealed' a little panic 'color', after thinking for about a minute, said with a bitter smile, If I say no, tomorrow morning someone will definitely go to report that I took out the mk2 on the sentry card, is that so?

    Smart, now I really doubt that the guys at the Redemption Committee testing center are all idiots, with your intelligence and skill, how could you be judged as an inferior species in the first place? Karan laughed, at this kind of time can still laugh out, see this person is really not a simple role 'character'.

    400,000 sierra, I'll do it.

    No, the price you want is too high, 250,000. Karan is notoriously stingy, and still has the heart to haggle at this time.

    350,000, can't be less, it's a head drop deal.

    Oh, you greedy, bad boy, I'll pay up to 300,000.

    Your mother's old Karan you vampire, 300,000 on 300,000, pay half of the deposit first, after doing this one, I can leave this hellhole on earth. Yang Yuanzhi gritted his teeth and said.

    Okay, I'll wire 150,000 to your account right away.

    No, it's 170,000, and a lb3. Yang Yuanzhi will not be cheap to this guy, the money that should be asked of course.

    Oh, smart bad boy, it's a shame you're not a businessman. Well, take a look at this and then work out an escape route in about 15 minutes. Karan said and pushed the computer over again, and on the monitor was a diagram of the building's structure. First of all, it is certain that the Dark Soul people are likely to have infiltrated the Sin Bar, with the ability of bounty hunters, the card swiper at the door is impossible to leave the real information, so how to escape the Dark Soul effective pursuit?

    Fifteen minutes later, the music in the Sin Bar suddenly stopped, and a bouncer stood on the 2nd floor and shouted, All the people in the bar listen up, immediately gather in the middle of the dance floor, and kill anyone who dares to disobey.

    3 upstairs rushed down 20 bodyguards, one by one the guests in the box on the 2nd floor to carry out, two really drunk guests, the bodyguards directly from the 2nd floor thrown down, strolling when a sound after the dead or alive do not know, this will be all the guests to shock.

    Yang Yuanzhi in box    7, when he saw this scene from the monitor, he couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile, this hellhole of Earth is like this, no strength equals no 'life'.

    After all the guests were herded to the middle dance floor, 20 more bouncers with lb3s were on the 2nd floor landing, monitoring the guests below from above, while the bouncers on the 1st floor stood in a line to keep the guests off the dance floor 10 meters away from the landing.

    After the bodyguards did all this, 20 people wearing black trench coats with sunglasses of similar height and size, rushed downstairs together, rushed to the gate when 5 hover cars stopped at the door in time, 20 people in 5 cars into the hover cars, hover cars one by one, straight to the direction of the n1 cosmic air port, 22:00 sharp, the Redemption will take off on time.

    5 hovercars with water vapor coming out of their rear ends were speeding towards the cosmic air port, and in one hour the Redemption would arrive at the 15th cosmic air port on the planet Namik, and there would be a strict inspection before boarding the ship. It is almost impossible to kill the 19 bodyguard protected targets without weapons on board.

    The only downside to this plan of action is that the hover car will take 20 minutes to travel from here to the cosmic air port, and within 20 minutes the Dark Souls can easily hit the rear of the hover car and destroy the engine forcing it to stop as long as they have a few ak47 shoulder-mounted laser cannons and anticipate that Karan will come to this hand.

    5 hovercars just drove out less than 10 seconds, 5 consecutive violent explosions sounded, 5 hovercars did not escape, rolling with smoke have planted forward, rolled on the ground a 'mess'.

    Five miniature reconnaissance mechs flew out from the side of the building. The advantage of this mech is its speed, but the disadvantage is that the armor is too thin, and can only low-grade short gun attacks. This kind of mecha, a hundred years ago has been eliminated by the army, the dark soul use this old thing, must be to take the advantages of its speed.

    But worry are superfluous, in this case, the hover car fell without a look, the people inside have long fallen seven dizzy, five light knife easily cut open the door of the hover car, the people inside were pulled out one by one, after a knife one are solved, 20 citizen cards and exile cards have gone on the card swiper.

    Night charm, night charm, the target is not in the car, let's go back immediately. A female voice in one of the mechs finished calling.

    ......................................

    Whew! Hoo! Yang Yuanzhi was in front, and Karan was behind him panting heavily as he ran wildly through the sewers.

6、Escape chase

    Just now, Yang Yuanzhi played a trick to conceal the time of departure of the Redemption, no one is more concerned than Yang Yuanzhi. The Dark Soul perspective to think, will certainly also be prepared for the Karan to such a hand, from time to reason for a very good action, will certainly attract the attention of the Dark Soul.

    Karan this guy is not a good thing, out of the mix of the enemy is certainly not less, the third floor has a secret passage directly to the sewers, is for the day when the crisis is good to run away.

    In the sin bar, the remaining dozens of bouncers heard the explosion outside and looked at the front door together vigilantly. The door suddenly opened with a brush, almost at the same time as the door opened, all the lights in the bar instantly went out.

    Poof, poof, poof ....... The darkness constantly heard the ringing sound of high-powered guns hitting the human body, the bouncers subconsciously followed the beam of high-powered guns emitted 'shooting' to find the target when the door was another burst of high-powered guns constantly ringing, the darkness of the bar customers a big 'chaos', screams, footsteps, kicking over the table sound mixed together.

    As the sound of gunfire gradually thinned, a rush of footsteps on the hallway rushed toward the upper floors, while on the steel frame beam at the top, a petite woman hid above, wearing a night vision device on her head, carrying a lh-type blocking gun pointed squarely at the second floor, where the bodyguards had fallen to the ground.

    Five black shadows rushed straight to the third floor, four on guard behind, one rushed to the door of box 7, a soap-sized piece of directional giant energy zha 'drug' paste on the door, then back a few steps, get down together.

    Bam a muffled sound, the compartment door was blown down, a flash bomb was thrown in, then five people rushed in together.

    The box is empty, rushed in the forefront, the end of the lb3 black man angry stomping feet said: bad, hit, there is a secret passage.

    At this point a female voice in the black man's headset said, Nightingale, an exit for a dark passage was found in the kitchen with a disguised floor sewer manhole cover on the side.

    Attention, everyone, to the kitchen.

    ..................

    In the dark sewers, Yang Yuanzhi is really like a fish in water, leading Karan seven turns and eight turns, not taking away the wrong. A full half hour of wild running, Yang Yuanzhi finally stopped, behind the Karan one hand crossed waist, breathlessly said: Young man, you want to exhaust the old man ah.

    Yang Yuanzhi did not have the good grace to turn around and say: do not want to die, less abet, there are still a lot of road to run it, with a good. Said from an upward well mouth climbed up, Karan this time there is fire also dare not attack, can only obediently follow the upward climb.

    After drilling to the street, Yang Yuanzhi skillfully moved the manhole cover back, turned back towards Karan and said, The killer must have brought the micro heat perception instrument, hurry up and run after it.

    Two people in another burst of lifeless frenzy, good in this is a very secluded street, Yang Yuanzhi led Karan in a series of small streets and alleys 'scurrying', a full half hour after running again, stopped in front of a small two-story building looks seriously dilapidated.

    Yang Yuanzhi was the first to go in through the broken window, and did not forget to turn around and pull a Karan.

    Watch out, there's a fallen table here. Attention, ....... Karan did not see Yang Yuanzhi turn on any lighting equipment, but it seems to see everything clearly. Earth night surface temperature drops sharply, this time even if there is a night vision device is also a waste of time, basically can not see anything of.

    After a slight creak, Yang Yuanzhi pulled Karan into a door, then turned back to the wall a press, the stone door back into place, snap a bright, in front of a mezzanine is only 20 square meters.

    Back to see Karan an incredible expression, Yang Yuanzhi fiercely remembered, just now all the way to run wildly, because of fear of being discovered, did not open any lighting tools, Karan will certainly have a curious mind.

    Don't guess, want to see as well as I do, insist on eating the meat of sawtooth rats raw every meal, eat a half year down, your eyes will be able to see clearly in the dark. Yang Yuanzhi's words caused a roll in Karan's stomach, and when he turned his head, he saw a lot of air-dried sawtooth rats hanging on the wall. Karan could not hold back any longer, rushed into the bathroom, lying on the toilet for a while vomiting, dinner steak all vomited out.

    It was hard for Karan to hold back the feeling of vomiting, just out of the bathroom, Yang Yuanzhi cut a piece of sawtooth rat meat in his hand, saw Karan sinister smile and said, Get some snacks to eat, there is nothing else to eat in this place, there is only sawtooth rat meat to eat.

    Oh, Karan shrieked, turning his head and rushing back into the bathroom.

    Total is out of the heart of a bad gas, Yang Yuanzhi smiled and opened a door on the wall, which is actually a roaster, the sawtooth rat meat hanging in it, closed the door and pressed a button on the side.

    1, 2, 3 ......7, a total of seven black shadows rushing through the sewers, the leading one holding a miniature micro heat sensing device.

    Stop, the signal is strong, at most 2 minutes ago, he went up from here.

    Seven black figures came up in a line, tight leather outlines a beautiful body, not to mention that they are all women.

    7 people drilled out of the wellhead, the pointer on the perception meter fell back with a violent burst, struggling feebly to sway a few times, and finally did not move.

    It's too cold outside, at least minus ten degrees, and the wind is too strong for the perceptron to feel the target's temperature.

    Big sister, what do you think? The woman with the perception meter in her hand turned around and asked the woman with the tallest figure.

    This time it seems to be a disgrace, I did not expect that Karan had such a cunning helper around, now it seems that our action today is a failure. The environment in this area is too complicated, and I'm afraid that scattering the pursuit is hardly fruitful, so let's all withdraw. Although the tone is very reluctant, the older sister who spoke still made a
