Both father and daughter felt that this shopping trip was already quite extravagant, but they were surprised to find that they had only spent half of the points on their cards.
It seems that as long as you don't invest in weapons, equipment, or evolution potions, the points are quite manageable.
In addition, there are forty bottles of evolution potion and a stockpile of medical fungi worth 10,000 yuan in the refrigerator at home.
Adding to the 150,000 points owed by the lords on installment payments, Zhao Xiaoxiu belatedly realized that she was almost a big landowner.
"Have you bought the parts for my automatic shower system?" Xiwa shouted to the truck behind before starting the vehicle.
Meng Da stretched out his hand and gave an OK sign. Xiwa immediately breathed a sigh of relief and gave Zhao Xiaoxiu and her father, who were sitting in the back seat, a fawning smile: "Please hold on tight, the car is about to start moving."
After giving the reminder, the modified off-road vehicle, fully loaded with supplies, smoothly started its journey and drove out of the free trade market, heading towards the bustling main urban area.
Zhao Gang and Zhao Xiaoxiu got out of the car to pick up the birthday cake. The little girl was very excited and skipped into the store.
The shop assistants seemed to have been waiting for her. As soon as Zhao Xiaoxiu entered, they immediately bowed and came forward, offering her water and desserts, as if to make up for the service they had missed.
The store manager, whom they hadn't seen at noon, personally brought a cake wrapped in a gift box to the father and daughter, asking if they needed help putting it in the car.
Zhao Gang replied coldly, "No need."
They took the cake, patiently waited for their little one to finish the complimentary dessert and drink half a glass of water, and then the father and daughter prepared to leave.
The store manager and staff escorted us to the door and onto the street, all smiles and very polite.
However, Zhao Xiaoxiu was too perceptive and easily noticed the panic hidden beneath that politeness.
"What's wrong with them?" Zhao Xiaoxiu asked her father in a low voice, curious.
Zhao Gang carefully placed the birthday cake on the passenger seat, put it in a mesh bag, and turned to ask the store manager, "What's wrong with you guys?"
The shopkeeper shuddered, his mouth blurting out his true thoughts: "You must be Zhao Gang, the lord of B District 13, the number one on the black market bounty list, with a bounty of 150,000 points!"
Upon hearing this, the father and daughter exchanged a surprised glance and immediately understood what those little tails following behind them meant.
"Who issued the bounty?" Zhao Xiaoxiu pressed.
Zhao Gang stared into the shopkeeper's eyes, and the shopkeeper quickly waved his hand in a panic, saying, "I don't know, I just heard that the highest bounty in history has appeared on the black market."
After all, in this world, bounties are generally not a necessary measure; if you want to kill someone, you just need to stay outside of officially designated urban areas.
Of course, even in urban areas, murders still occur frequently after dark. Unless the victim's friends or family pursue the matter to the end, the authorities usually just give a token gesture and let it go.
Therefore, there is only one possibility for someone to appear on the bounty list—they are simply too difficult to kill!
Not getting an answer didn't bother Zhao Xiaoxiu, because she already knew who would issue the bounty for her father's life.
"It's Evan," the father and daughter said firmly in unison.
Zhao Xiaoxiu climbed onto the car seat herself and complained, "This person is really stingy."
Zhao Gang closed the car door and nodded in deep agreement: "Indeed stingy."
The driver, Xiwa, moved his lips, unsure whether he should say something.
Hey guys, do you realize that you've taken away a hundred doses of evolution potion and Evan's brother's life?!
Thinking that he only had one life, he decided against it and refused to tell anyone.
The little girl started the car and drove it steadily, afraid of shaking the birthday cake worth eight thousand eight hundred yuan inside.
The car drove to the checkpoint and met up with the Meng family mother and son who were waiting by the roadside. The truck was in front and the off-road vehicle was behind, and they returned home as the orange-red sunset painted the sky.
Soon, a vehicle followed, but kept a safe distance, which made Xiwa's mentality almost collapse.
He thought to himself, "Just give me a quick death, whether you kill me or not!"
But the other party was cautious and in no hurry to make a move, after all, that was someone who could kill Steven, a 3rd evolved human.
Gradually, more and more vehicles followed behind the SUV. There were already very few vehicles on the road leading into the planting area, so these vehicles following behind were extremely conspicuous.
They are all outstanding professional bounty hunters from various factions. In the past, they would have definitely struck first to gain the upper hand.
But this time, they were strangely modest, each wanting the other to rush up and test the strength of the number one on the leaderboard.
As the convoy entered the mountains, the straight roads began to wind their way through.
Zhao Xiaoxiu strained her ears and could hear several regretful sighs, along with some rambling chatter.
"Damn it, it'll be hard to aim when we're in the mountains."
"I should have fired a shot on the main road first to test the waters."
"I'm going to die... I have a feeling this number one on the leaderboard will be very difficult to kill."
"Why aren't they stopping? How can we snipe them if they don't stop!"
"......"
Zhao Xiaoxiu: "..." So this is what it feels like to be someone's object of attention.
The sun had completely set, and only some swaying tree shadows could be seen through the front window. Xiwa and Mengda turned on the headlights and sped along the winding mountain road.
Two clicking sounds reached Zhao Xiaoxiu's ears, and she sat up straight instantly. "Someone is adjusting a sniper rifle."
Zhao Gang looked up and saw a wide, unobstructed C-shaped bend ahead. As their vehicle drove through the bend, the snipers parked there could easily target the people inside.
Little Kid also noticed the bend, his heart skipped a beat, and he frantically shouted in his mind: "Stay calm, stay calm! The boss isn't panicking, why are you?"
Zhao Gang glanced back and patted the nervous cub beside him, "Xiao Xiu, you try."
Xiwa glanced at the rearview mirror in surprise. Could this young lady really stop those professional bounty hunters?
