Chapter 45 Reward Reversal! Patrol Mission
Li Ming glanced at the corpse, and the mechanical arm with electric arcs retracted. After being strengthened by the Yunlei mother ore, the electric arcs on the mechanical arm were stronger than those he himself stimulated.
Switching control of the smart terminal, he began to inspect the room with the help of a 360-degree view.
Unfortunately, no hidden safe was found, but two hidden surveillance cameras were found, one on the ceiling and the other opposite the bed.
"There really is a surveillance camera..." Li Ming stared at the glass ball in front of him. It was well hidden and obviously specially made. If he didn't have a 360-degree view, he might not have noticed the clues.
There is no line connection, no signal transmission fluctuation, and it comes with a built-in storage hard drive, all for the purpose of concealing the service.
Li Ming took out the hard drive and checked, and found only videos from the last three days.
After transferring the balance in the Red Rose Black Hole Network to his own account, the total balance reached 250,000.
After the Red Rose's bounty mission is reviewed, another 70,000 star coins will be credited to the account, totaling 320,000.
Li Ming was satisfied, but unfortunately... whether it was buying E-level gene seeds or upgrading D-level control objects, the difference was not even a little bit, so he had to save it up for now.
When he got home, he looked through the records in the surveillance camera with great interest.
Most of them are live pornographic shows. Red Rose seems to be popular with both men and women. It was interesting at first, but I got bored of it later.
He didn't know if there were any important people among them, so he simply copied everything to the smart terminal and destroyed the hard drive.
………
"Captain Yang, several more people died this morning: Black Dog, Red Rose, and a few other minions. Those bounty hunters are becoming more and more brazen."
In the office, Lao Dao is reporting.
Yang Peng listened and suddenly looked up: "Who are you talking about? Red Rose?"
"Yes." Lao Dao nodded, "This morning, Red Rose was found naked in the bedroom, along with a minor character under her command."
"The bounty has been claimed. It's by a bounty hunter named Shadow. He's been responsible for several bounties recently."
After a public bounty is claimed, the codename of the person who completed it will be displayed.
"Tsk..." Yang Peng frowned. Hong Meigui was the one who sold information about Li Ming to the Xionghu Gang.
Somehow, he remembered Li Ming's inquiry yesterday.
Impossible... He secretly rejected it. The development progress of Red Rose's gene seed had already exceeded 90%, which was the same level as Scarface Tiger. It was not something Li Ming could solve easily.
Besides, I didn’t explicitly say it was the Red Rose yesterday, I just casually mentioned the Rose Club.
There are so many people in the Rose Club, how could Li Ming possibly lock onto the red rose in less than a day?
He shook his head and continued to listen to Lao Dao's report.
…
By the afternoon, a bombshell news came: four more people were offered a million-dollar reward - the head of security, the head of intelligence, the head of logistics, and the head of internal affairs.
A long list of captains were also put on the bounty list, including Yang Peng.
At the same time, the high reward for Tu Zheng and the other two was revoked. Even if the reward was cancelled, a handling fee of 50% of the reward amount would still need to be paid.
This sudden change came suddenly, and just half an hour later, the head of the city security department, Wang An, was assassinated.
An armor-piercing bullet penetrated the heavily armored hovercraft he was riding in and grazed his cheek!
The entire city guard was blown up, bounties were put on all middle and senior management, and the security chief was assassinated. This is a serious provocation!
All managers above the middle level went to a meeting, and soon a notice came - Silver Ash City activated the third level alert, all city guards immediately canceled their vacations and patrolled day and night, schools were closed, and all residents were not allowed to go out unless necessary.
And has applied for support from Blue Star.
"That's quite vicious. First they use a high reward to attract the bounty hunters, and then they offer a reward to the city guards. Even if Blue Star reacts, it will take time." Li Ming estimated, quite surprised.
"And the bounty hunters are already here. It's impossible for them to come in vain. They will definitely shift their target to the city guards."
This plan was well done, but the price was not cheap. Three million-dollar bounties were cancelled, and 1.5 million star coins were just lost.
The water is completely muddy, and it's getting muddier. Now no one knows what's hidden under the water.
The citizens of Silver Ash City were in a panic, and each of them mobilized their connections to try to figure out what had happened. The wealthy ones bought interstellar ship tickets and temporarily went out to hide.
Yang Peng came back from the meeting, his expression still gloomy. He called everyone together and said in a deep voice:
"A team of four people is assigned a patrol area. They are equipped with guns, wear combat uniforms and body armor, and have 24-hour logistical support."
"If you encounter a bounty hunter, kill him!"
Lao Diao, Li Ning, Li Ming and there is a guy named Bai Yu, who is not too old, two years older than Li Ning, wears glasses and smiles all day long.
They formed a group of four and patrolled the JS district in the east of Silver Gray City, covering more than a dozen streets, which were mainly residential areas. Under the third-level alert, there were few people on the streets.
The four of them separated and flew in shuttle craft, wandering in the sky.
"Brother Diao, how do we usually exchange gene seeds in our department?" Li Ming asked in the channel.
"Oh, you can't hold it back anymore." Lao Diao teased, "Are you almost done with your exercise?"
"Well, it should be soon."
"Young people, you have such a big heart..." Lao Diao sighed.
"So much nonsense." Li Ning interrupted: "It's not difficult to exchange gene seeds. You just need to make meritorious contributions. If you want to exchange for F-level gene seeds, you need to complete at least fifty G-level cases..."
Li Ning explained, and Li Ming roughly understood that the so-called completion of a G-level event means that in ordinary cases that do not involve F-level life forms, the individual's contribution exceeds 50%.
The City Guards’ Internal Affairs Department has a special evaluation system.
It may sound difficult for an individual to contribute more than 50%, but this is reality, not a game. Contribution cannot be measured intuitively, and there are many influencing factors.
With so many people in the entire City Guard Department, the annual allocation of F-level gene seeds is only twenty, and there are only five spots for the Security Department.
The City Guard Department is still recruiting people every year, plus the profits from those with connections... Even if you have made contributions, you still have to wait in line. The City Guards really treat people like donkeys.
"To exchange for E-level gene seeds, do you need to complete fifty F-level cases?" Li Ming asked.
"E-level..." Lao Diao laughed, "You're not even an F-level life form yet. Don't be too ambitious. Li Ning is still waiting patiently. Even if you have connections, you won't be able to meet the requirements in two years."
"Yes, there are fewer E-level gene seeds available. Our department only has two each year. Plus, with each department vying for credit, the actual difficulty is even higher."
"However, you received the Rookie Badge before, so if we estimate intuitively, twenty times wouldn't be too much." Bai Yu said in the channel, "If there are special awards from senior management, they can also be converted."
"Many times, these things that seem difficult to us are actually just a matter of a word in the eyes of those bigwigs." Bai Yu smiled helplessly.
This was also the reason why Yang Peng recommended him to join the security team. Without external forces, it would take a long time to meet the requirements, Li Ming thought thoughtfully.
"Actually, pursuing these things isn't a good thing either." Lao Diao sighed, "To become a high-level life form, you have to fight on the front lines. It's nice to have a wife and children by your side."
"Don't say anything, old man. We young people are full of drive. Sooner or later, we will be able to take the rank and become F-class life forms..." Li Ning was full of confidence and comforted Li Ming:
"Don't let this old guy get you down. I'll protect you when the time comes."
Li Ming's mouth curled slightly, "Okay, no problem..."
Once the information Yang Peng submits is approved, he will be able to use the City Guard’s special training room, and his goal is to obtain an E-level gene seed.
Thinking of this, he became more and more excited. The pleasure of evolution was indescribable.
There were no accidents during the daytime patrol, until night fell, when several people became alert.
"Bounty hunter attacks always happen at night, so be alert." Lao Diao said in a deep voice. However, as soon as he finished speaking, a roar broke the tranquility of the night, and thick smoke and flames shot straight into the sky.
Then the channel was filled with noise.
"Patrol teams near the new city area, please pay attention. Please proceed to coordinates 1425, 2367 as soon as possible for support. The enemy is carrying light firepower. Incident assessment - F"
"repeat…"
"Fuck, I have such a bad mouth!" Lao Diao cursed, but he didn't hesitate. "You three, follow me, let's go!"
Four small aircraft quickly headed towards the location where the fire was coming from.
