Chapter 29: Bounty Hall Opens
This early player named Fan Dai not only talked about this matter on the same provincial channel, but also marked the specific place and city.
[Du Xuan] (Channel from the same province): This is called a bad teammate.
[Fan Dai] (Channel from the same province): What’s the matter? Some people have been using unspoken rules to not open the convenience store. Even if someone takes the lead now, it will have to be opened one day. Anyway, I am ready to open the access.
Fan Dai is also the mayor of a city-state in Yangshan City. Originally, she also followed the outliers among the players who did not take the initiative and kept the same attitude as everyone else by not opening the convenience store.
This will be fine now, everyone knows about this, so just open it.
The residents of Xuantian City were excited. They were the first city-state in the country to open convenience store permissions. It turned out that not all early adopters were the same.
Although the missing person notices issued may not receive a response, residents who grow morning glories post a few at different time periods, hoping that their lost family members will see the emails they send.
Paradise City, Yangshan City.
The frail girl ran with a look of surprise on her face. As soon as she reached the door, she shouted, "Mom! I saw my brother's name on the local chat channel. He even called my name clearly!"
The middle-aged woman who was still cooking heard her daughter say the word "brother" and immediately walked out of the kitchen, "Your brother? What did you see?"
The girl calmed down and said, "My brother Liu Yu, he asked in the local chat channel if Liu Lian's parents were with you. If you see the message, send him an email. He is in Xuantian City."
Tears welled up in the middle-aged woman's eyes. "Did you contact them by email?"
"I've contacted him. My brother just emailed me asking which city he is in. He will come here with other people to pick us up." The girl choked up as she spoke.
My brother had just graduated and went to work in another district, but he didn't expect the end of the world to come and his family would be separated.
After the apocalypse, the overall surface of the earth expanded more than ten times, and all modern cities disappeared within two days, so it was impossible to use buildings as coordinates to find people.
The middle-aged woman wiped the tears from her daughter's face and said, "Alright, tell your father when he comes back soon, and we will be reunited as a family."
"Yeah, I miss my brother so much."
Liu Yu, who was still in Xuantian City, had just sent out five messages when he saw his sister emailing him. He immediately jumped for joy.
Liu Yu is a professional player himself, following a team in Xuantian City. Now everyone in the team is looking for their families, and they have agreed that family members in the same city-state will go together.
"My sister contacted me. They are all in Paradise City in Yangshan City. It's a bit far from here, but I'll go there to pick them up in the next two days. Has anyone found their relatives in Paradise City?"
Someone patted his shoulder with envy, "Is everyone as lucky as you? You're the only one in our team who has any news right now."
Liu Yu was instantly disappointed. He wanted to fly to Paradise City to pick up his family immediately. "Do we still need to let them wait?"
The other teammates understood his feelings. Whoever received news from their family didn't want to take it immediately. "Wait a little longer. It's not safe for you to go to Paradise City alone."
[System prompt: Xuantian City has opened the bounty hall. You can go to the hall to check the specific operation procedures.]
"Bounty Hall?"
Liu Yu immediately stood up to take a look. Every time Xuantian City launched a new function, it greatly facilitated them.
The bounty hall needs to be opened by the city lord himself with money, and a series of operations such as acquisitions and temporary team formation can be published in this hall.
Seeing that many people were looking for their families, Lu Jiu probably wanted to go pick them up herself. However, it would be better to set up a bounty hall than to rely on them to slowly find people to form a team. Bringing people over earlier would also increase the population of her city-state.
It was the opening of the bounty hall that cost her 30 gold coins.
Liu Yu figured out its function in the bounty hall. He could issue a task by spending 5 copper coins. He immediately issued a task for a temporary team. The task location was to start from Paradise City. He didn't believe that there was not a single relative in the city-state with thousands of people.
Brother Wen doesn't need to look for his family anymore, let alone A Liu, but they also have very good friends who are willing to try to contact them if conditions permit.
But what surprised Brother Wen even more was the bounty hall. With it, it was much more convenient for them to purchase supplies and form teams.
The bounty hall is divided into several parts: bounty, acquisition and temporary team formation, and these systems will also be divided into levels to facilitate residents' inquiries.
In short, the higher the amount, the easier it is to be seen, and keyword searches are also fine.

Compared to the bustling atmosphere in Xuantian City, other city-states were almost in chaos, and the first official conflict broke out between the advanced players and ordinary players.
They clearly have good stuff but are unwilling to open up permissions. Ordinary players who know the city lord's name have begun to look for the city lord. The number of emails to some city lords has skyrocketed, and of course, none of the emails are good.
This would make the city lord who chose to reveal his identity in the beginning miserable. If he had known earlier, he would not have been so arrogant. Now he is really suffering.
Many city lords choose to hide in the city lord's mansion, which is a private area that ordinary players cannot see or touch.
The Lord of Phantom City is one of them.
Now he and his family are hiding in the city lord's mansion. The residents here have always disliked him, and now this incident has happened, which is like lighting a powder keg.
"These freeloaders! I provided them with a safe environment to live in, yet they treated me like this!" The Lord of Phantom City had a distorted expression on his face.
Next to him sat a portly young man, holding a pretty girl in his arms. "Cousin, I told you a long time ago that the city-state must implement a strict management system."
The city lord glanced at him with a sullen face, his eyes full of disgust. He had always looked down on this fat pig-like cousin. If he hadn't built this city, he wouldn't know where he would survive.
"What do you know? If that happens, everyone will run away." If there are no people left, why would he want an empty city?
The fat man didn't care about his cousin's disdain for him. "Where can those life-oriented players go? We rely on them to fight wild monsters, and there's no telling how far they can go. Cousin, we should forcefully suppress these disturbances this time. You're a good city lord, you can't just hide in the city lord's mansion forever, right?"
The city lord didn't say anything, his eyes looking forward, and it was unclear whether he was looking at the scenery in the front yard of the city lord's mansion or thinking about something.
"Cousin, the jungle clearing near our Phantom City has been taken care of by the City Mansion team. It's okay if those professional players leave. We still have NPCs, right? With fewer of these professional players, we can get more resources. The remaining life-type players are nothing to be afraid of."
Although the city lord looked down on his cousin, what he said touched his heart. None of the NPCs guarding the city were worse than professional players.
They could also follow his instructions to go out of the city and clear the wild monsters together, so all the wild monsters around Phantom City were surrounded by them.
The fat man saw that his cousin's expression had eased a little, and knew that he agreed with what he said.
"Why not take this opportunity to clean up the mess and give your Phantom City a brand new look, cousin?"
After hearing these flattering words, the city lord sat up straight and raised his chin slightly, "It's decided."
