Chapter 193: Hunting Alone?
To deal with him alone, they actually dispatched so many people?
Right!
Lu Yu seemed to have been suddenly enlightened and hurried toward a corpse behind him.
"This guy must be one of the two Transformation Energy Martial Artists, right? An ordinary Dark Energy Martial Artist wouldn't have such fast speed. I hope he has some good things on him."
As Lu Yu spoke, he reached out and began to rummage through Ning Wenzhu's corpse.
It didn't take long before he indeed had a harvest.
He found a wallet, a bottle of Pill, and two Secret Manuals.
The two Secret Manuals were 【Baji Fist】 and 【Grass-Skipping】.
Seeing these two Secret Manuals, Lu Yu couldn't help but frown slightly.
There wasn't much searched out to begin with, and as it turned out, both of these Secret Manuals were ones he had already practiced, making him so angry he really wanted to punch the corpse on the ground twice.
Next, he opened the wallet and took a glance; there were quite a few things inside, including documents like an ID card and a residence permit, as well as a sum of cash, roughly estimated to be around one hundred thousand.
Lu Yu took out the more than one hundred thousand in cash and then put the wallet into his Space Item.
Now only one bottle of Pill remained.
"If it's a Superior Blood Qi Pill, that would be pretty good too."
Lu Yu comforted himself. After opening the bottle cap, a rich fragrance immediately rushed to his nose, and he could even feel the blood Qi in his body beginning to stir.
Something is wrong!
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, poured out a Pill, and placed it in his palm to examine it carefully.
This Pill was bright red all over, round and full, and the aroma was very rich. At first glance, it really looked like a Superior Blood Qi Pill, but its size was different from an ordinary Superior Blood Qi Pill.
Lu Yu was also a bit confused for a moment.
"Forget it, I'll ask Brother Liu when I go back later."
Although there was a high probability that this Pill could be consumed, the always-cautious Lu Yu decided to play it safe.
Next, he went to search the bodies of the other few people one by one.
It had to be said that with more people, the probability of finding good things increased accordingly. After this round of searching, he really found quite a few good things.
In the Fist Technique category, there were 【Tongbei Fist】 and 【Iron Wire Fist】; in the leg technique category, there was 【Twelve-Road Tan Leg】; and in the sword technique category, there was 【Taiji Sword】.
Besides that, there were nearly ten bottles of Superior Blood Qi Pill!
Adding the previous one hundred thousand in cash, he now had a total of nearly seven hundred thousand.
Moreover, he discovered another bottle of that same kind of Pill as before.
Lu Yu leaned in and smelled it, feeling that this was very likely a Blood Qi Pill, and judging by its appearance, it seemed to be even better than a Superior Blood Qi Pill.
A thought suddenly flashed through his mind: could this be the legendary Top-grade Blood Qi Pill?
After putting all these things into his Space Item, Lu Yu took out a large sack and put all seven Machine Cannons into it at once.
Afterward, he found several thick ropes and tied the Violent Bear's legs tightly. To avoid complications, he planned to send this big guy back first before coming out to continue hunting.
Of course, if the Merchant Guild held a grudge against him because of this incident and continued to send people to trouble him, that would naturally be even better for Lu Yu.
Soon, when Lu Yu dragged a massive Violent Bear and appeared before everyone, everyone was so shocked by the scene before them that they couldn't speak.
Even Liu Yong was no exception.
He looked in disbelief at the behemoth on the ground that was taller than a one-story building; the Violent Bear's massive body occupied almost half of the courtyard.
There was a blood hole the size of a fist on the bear's head, and the bloodstains were already half-dried, clearly left not long ago. Examining the Violent Bear's entire body carefully, it seemed there was only this one wound.
After a long while, Liu Yong finally came back to his senses and asked with a trembling voice: "Lu, Little Brother Lu, this, this Violent Bear, did you hunt it alone?"
As he spoke, his eyes also subconsciously glanced behind Lu Yu, as if looking for whether there were others helping.
However, apart from the onlookers gathered outside the courtyard curiously peering in, there was no sign of anyone else.
"Yes, Brother Liu, help me take a look and see how much this guy is worth," Lu Yu asked with a smile.
*Gulp. *
Liu Yong swallowed hard, his face full of disbelief: "Re, really, you hunted it alone?"
You have to know, let alone a Violent Bear, any Advanced Fierce Beast is not an easy character to deal with.
Even if those few In-Jin Martial Artists in the Branch acted together, sometimes they might not necessarily succeed in hunting an Advanced Fierce Beast, and if things went wrong, they could even fall into life-threatening danger.
Yet Lu Yu actually...
"It really was me."
Lu Yu was a bit amused, though he had expected the other party to have such a reaction.
"Uh, good, good."
Liu Yong nodded hurriedly and then said: "Little Brother Lu, it's like this: for Advanced Fierce Beasts, the Association purchases them according to quantity.
Among Advanced Fierce Beasts, the Violent Bear belongs to the more powerful ones. Not only is its entire hide and fur incredibly tough, and its bear meat rich in high nutrition, but its claws and teeth are also very good materials for refining equipment.
Therefore, the purchase price for an adult Violent Bear can reach four million per head."
"Four million!"
Lu Yu's eyes lit up immediately.
He had originally thought that counting all the materials on the Violent Bear, having two million would be pretty good; he didn't expect it to double directly.
"That's right, the Association's purchase price is quite fair; on this point, Little Brother Lu, you can rest assured."
Liu Yong said with a smile.
After finishing, he couldn't help but reveal a look of deep envy in his eyes.
Four million!
For Xu Jie and his group, the reward for a single hunt is usually around two to three million, and when they are lucky, it can be three to four million, but don't forget, they act with six people together.
Even with a reward of four million, if divided equally among six people, each person gets less than seven hundred thousand.
As for Lu Yu, he alone had harvested four million!
Never mind him; I fear even the President would be unable to help but feel envious upon hearing this news.
"By the way, little brother Lu, the Association has a requirement for every In-Jin Martial Artist: to kill at least one Advanced Fierce Beast every month. If you can complete this mission, you can receive an additional reward of ten percent of the prey's purchase price."
"Is that so?"
Lu Yu opened his mouth slightly, "Doesn't that mean, besides the four million, I can get an extra four hundred thousand as a mission reward?"
"That's correct."
Liu Yong nodded.
In fact, the Branch also had quantity bonuses for hunting Advanced Fierce Beasts; the more Advanced Fierce Beasts one killed, the higher the mission reward would be.
However, Liu Yong hesitated for a moment and ultimately held back from saying it.
Don't look at how relaxed and at ease Lu Yu appeared now; he must have faced extreme danger while hunting this Violent Bear, and a single moment of carelessness could have cost him his life.
Under these circumstances, if he revealed this news, Lu Yu might very well get hot-headed and risk his life again to go out and hunt Fierce Beasts.
"Little brother Lu, you are truly amazing. If the President finds out about this news later, he will surely be so happy he won't be able to sleep."
"Is that so?"
Lu Yu smiled, then pointed to the sack on the ground to the side and said, "Please help me take a look at this thing too, and see how much it's worth."
"Sure, no problem."
Liu Yong walked forward, and the moment he opened the sack, he froze.
"This, this is?"
He counted carefully, and good heavens, there were actually seven Machine Cannons!
Among them, four were 20mm, and three were 30mm.
Although Machine Cannons were not exactly rare items, having so many appear all at once still made one feel suspicious; where on earth did these come from?
Liu Yong's eyes widened, and he vaguely guessed something in his heart. He hurriedly covered the opening of the sack and said in a low voice, "Little brother Lu, there are too many eyes and ears here; this isn't the place to talk. Come, let's go inside and talk."
Lu Yu was hoping for exactly that and nodded repeatedly in a hurry.
The two walked into the room, and after Liu Yong closed the door, he asked impatiently, "Little brother Lu, these Machine Cannons are?"
"They are from the Merchant Guild."
Lu Yu recounted everything that had happened exactly as it occurred.
If the corpse of the Violent Bear weren't still lying in the courtyard, Liu Yong likely wouldn't have believed Lu Yu's words at this moment.
Seven In-Jin Martial Artists, who had come to kill one person, were all killed in return? Such a thing seemed to exist only in dreams.
But the corpse of the Violent Bear was lying right there in plain sight, so he had no choice but to believe it.
"So that's how it is."
Liu Yong couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for Lu Yu and said, "Little brother Lu, your skills are indeed remarkable, but acting alone is far too risky. I think in the future, why don't you team up with the other Martial Artists in the Branch?"
Lu Yu smiled and shook his head, saying, "Brother Liu, I understand your good intentions, but for me, acting alone is actually safer. If I can win, I fight; if I can't, I run. If there are too many people, it might sometimes ruin things."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yong was left speechless for a moment.
After a while, a bitter smile appeared on his face, and he said, "That may be so, but little brother Lu, you must still be very careful. Since that group from the Merchant Guild has decided to make a move against you, they certainly won't let it go so easily."
"Mm, thank you for the reminder, Brother Liu. I will be careful."
As Lu Yu spoke, he looked at the sack to the side, "Then, what about these Machine Cannons?"
Liu Yong said with a wry smile, "We'll take them, of course. The 20mm Machine Cannons are 200,000 each, and the 30mm Machine Cannons are 300,000 each; seven of them add up to 1.7 million.
Plus the 4.4 million for the Violent Bear earlier, that's a total of 6.1 million. Little brother Lu, if I haven't calculated wrong, I will convert this 6.1 million yuan into 6.1 million Contribution Points and deposit them into your account."
"Sorry for the trouble, Brother Liu."
Lu Yu said with a smile.
6.1 million!
Just one hunting trip, and he could have such a bountiful harvest.
If he were to hunt Intermediate-level Fierce Beasts, he would probably have to run five?
"By the way, Brother Liu, I also found this on them."
Lu Yu took out the two bottles of Pill and said, "They look a bit like Superior Blood Qi Pill, but they are a bit larger. Please help me take a look at what these are."
