58: Prepare to harvest

"Hint: Bounty Hunter Trait activated!"

"Quantum storage, experimental data has been placed in the Bounty Hunter Chest!"

"Current losing streak: 10"

"Hint: Bounty Hunter Trait activated!"

"Ventilator, smoothbore gun exhibit has been placed in the Bounty Hunter Chest!"

"Current losing streak: 11"

"Hint: Bounty Hunter Trait activated!"

"Highly Classified Server, reinforced carbon fiber board has been placed in the Bounty Hunter Chest!"

"Current losing streak: 12"

......

Four o'clock in the afternoon.

Xiao Yun returned to Haibei North Port.

He spent the entire afternoon running back and forth between two restricted areas, finally completing a 12-game losing streak for the bounty!

And the reward for the twelve-game losing streak did not disappoint him.

Starting from the tenth consecutive loss, red supplies began to be placed in the Bounty Hunter Chest.

Quantum storage and experimental data, both of these were single-slot little red items, each priced around 250,000.

Moreover, if the data stored within them had research value, these two supplies might even have premium potential.

The ventilator and smoothbore gun from the 11th consecutive loss were both 4-slot big red items.

The ventilator was valued at 450,000, while the smoothbore gun was 750,000.

Together, their value reached a staggering 1,200,000!

And at the twelfth consecutive loss,

Xiao Yun finally saw a big red item for the first time in this world!

"Material: Highly Classified Server"

"Rarity: Red"

"Price: 2,189,874"

"Material: reinforced carbon fiber board"

"Rarity: Red"

"Price: 2,156,486"

These two top-tier materials, in the game of his previous life, were both 3x3 big red items.

Xiao Yun remembered that once in his previous life, while doing a knife run, he picked up a reinforced carbon fiber board in a normal Longbow Creek Valley, but was immediately hunted down by a Bloodhound.

Since then, in nearly 500 hours of game time, he had never seen this big red item again.

He never expected that the regret from his previous life would be compensated for in this world.

At this moment,

He only needed one successful extraction to open the Bounty Hunter Chest and retrieve all the big red items inside!

"Oh, right, System, what's the current mission?"

Xiao Yun suddenly asked.

He still remembered that to unlock more SS-rank skills, he needed to complete three missions.

"Current Mission: Complete 3 extractions, and defeat 5 soldiers in each extraction."

Seeing this mission, Xiao Yun felt it looked a bit unfamiliar.

He remembered that the previous mission didn't seem to be this one?

Opening his system backpack, he indeed found that besides the Bounty Hunter Chest, there were already two safe experience cards placed inside.

It seemed his previous actions had already completed the last mission.

In other words, the current mission was the system's third mission.

After completing this mission, he would be able to view other SS-rank skills in the shop.

"First, harvest, then upgrade the family heirloom dagger!"

Xiao Yun thought to himself.

The most necessary expense right now was still upgrading the family heirloom dagger to level 100.

Then, prioritize unlocking the warehouse to store the materials he wanted to keep.

However,

Xiao Yun was not in a hurry to enter the restricted area.

After all, he was still wearing the five sets from the previous round, which Liu Shihhan had helped him bring out.

He first went to the Exchange and sold the five sets and some unimportant materials.

After tax deductions, he sold them for a total of 720,000, and with the money left over from previous upgrades, his savings were still 1,080,000.

Xiao Yun then bought 15 Asala special wine glasses, which, combined with the one he had opened before, was just enough to upgrade the family heirloom dagger by another five levels.

And with this purchase, another 960,000 went down the drain!

Xiao Yun's bank account instantly had only 120,000 left.

Originally, he had also thought of contacting the girl who sold the cards to buy a set of Dam No. 0 keycards.

Now, at most, he could only buy a Substation Technical Room card.

And during the transaction,

Xiao Yun noticed that the counter lady who had deliberately leaked his transaction information that morning was nowhere to be seen.

In her place was a young man who had taken over her position.

"By the way, where is the counter lady who was here this morning?"

"I'm not sure, I heard she was fired. I just transferred from another place, so I don't know the reason."

Xiao Yun nodded silently, not feeling surprised.

After all, prohibiting the disclosure of customer transaction information was a basic professional ethic for traders.

With so many cameras watching, they must have captured the commotion she caused that morning.

He wondered how much money Li Wenzhe's family had given her for her to be willing to lose this iron rice bowl job just to pull such a stunt.

"Never mind, let's upgrade first."

Without thinking too much,

Xiao Yun found an empty corner, pulled out his military dagger, and prepared to upgrade it.

......

"Shihan, you seem very happy today?"

In the black Mercedes-Benz.

The driver saw the smile on Liu Shihhan's lips in the rearview mirror and felt a bit surprised.

He remembered that she hadn't smiled like this for a long time since she started high school.

"Is it because of Xiao Yun?"

"Hmph, don't even mention it, he almost made me mad!"

Liu Shihhan immediately complained.

"He doesn't treat me like the school beauty at all, and he doesn't know how to cherish women.

"He found a set of golden head and golden armor inside and told me to put it on. I thought he was being so nice to me and was going to give it to me!"

"But he just made me bring it out to get a 600,000 extraction, and then he took it back afterward. He's so stingy."

Liu Shihhan complained, but her face was full of smiles.

Recalling this match, it seemed to be the most interesting experience she had had in a while.

Liu Shihhan laughed and then suddenly sighed.

"But he still didn't recognize me."

"It's been so many years, Shihan, you've changed so much, it's normal for him not to recognize you."

"I know, but I still hope..."

Liu Shihhan sighed again, looking at the scenery outside the car window, the bustling shops all along the city streets.

She seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes turned cold.

"Oh, right, what about that trader at Eight Warehouse?"

"She has already confessed that she was instructed by a small leader at the Exchange, and she wasn't the only one who received the order at the time. It just so happened that Xiao Yun went to her window for the transaction, so you could say she had bad luck."

The driver said, and casually handed a document from the passenger seat to Liu Shihhan.

It recorded Li family's connections within the Haibei City GTI, as well as some sensitive incidents.

"Through the person she pointed out, we also found part of Li family's network in the Haibei City GTI. The remaining part should be fully investigated in at most three days."

Liu Shihhan nodded gently.

From the information, although the Li family dominated one side in Haibei City, they were far from being able to control everything.

Especially Li Wenzhe's father, Li Chenshu, this second-in-command.

He only dared to do some illegal things, and many matters were settled at a loss.

However,

When she saw a familiar name, Liu Shihhan frowned.

"Chen Ping? Is that Li Wenzhe's class teacher?"

Seeing this, Liu Shihhan looked thoughtful.

......

"Ding! Upgrade successful!"

"military dagger"

"Type: family heirloom"

"Level: 20"

"Damage: 50"

"Movement Speed Bonus: 20%"

"Attack Speed: Fast"

"Attack Range: Extremely Short"

"Special Skill: None"

"Upgrade Requires: Merit Medal x1"

Upgrade completed.

This upgrade, besides the increase in damage, had no other changes.

"I wonder what level the next movement speed bonus will be?"

Xiao Yun thought to himself.

The next upgrade material for the dagger was Merit Medal, 82,000 each, much more expensive than other small gold items.

Upgrading to level 25 would require 16 Merit Medals, which would cost over 1.3 million again.

"I'm short on money, really short on money!"

Xiao Yun complained, and also opened his phone.

He was just about to contact the girl who sold the cards when he saw a sudden new friend request.

"Big Sister School Beauty has applied to add you as a friend."

Seeing this nickname, Xiao Yun's eye twitched immediately.
