Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

Chapter 262 Chapter 259 Washing hands in a golden basin

Three days have passed since Zhuang Xuteng got the warhammer, and he still hasn't gotten used to this heavy one-handed weapon. The weight of four kilograms is placed in the cold weapon category, even if compared with two-handed weapons, it is not inferior at all. An ordinary one-handed mace weighs less than half a kilogram, and Zhuang Xuteng's armor-breaking hammer is eight times heavier. Most two-handed swords weigh less than three kilograms, and only a few can weigh more than four kilograms, but they are two-handed swords!

It is easy to cause problems in martial arts when a person is carried away by a weapon. If one's life's safety rests on a single attack, it doesn't matter who follows whom even if one fights for one's life, but this is not a normal battle. The enemies Zhuang Xuteng faced included those with high speed and explosive power, some with rough skin and thick flesh, and of course some with excellent martial arts. He must have complete control over the weapon in order to take advantage of super computing and super cache martial arts in battle.

It's just that he can't care about it now. The golden basin washing ceremony is today.

The ceremony begins after lunch. Those who come to participate in the ceremony must first eat in the music restaurant. Having enough food and drink is the ticket to participate in the ceremony. The tables were removed, the venue was cleared, and the ceremony officially began. Lucy had a six-sentence speech, followed by a speech by the Famine Stranger, which lasted no more than two minutes. The last person to speak was another intermediary. That man was a friend of Famine Stranger and was considered "highly respected" in the industry.

After the three people finished speaking, they began to congratulate and resolve their grievances. According to Lucy and Master's estimation, most of them came to congratulate them. Those who had grievances would also make fun of them, and those with a bad temper would scold them. This kind of thing can be tolerated for the most part. After all, there are only a few people who break out. If there's a fight, Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao will go first. If that doesn't work, there will be the Famine Stranger to support them. It would be best if the ring can be finished as early as possible, and if it is prolonged, it will not be later than sunset. From noon to sunset, it symbolizes the departure of the strong.

For the two apprentices, it would be too embarrassing if the master had to take action on such an important day. Especially for Zhuang Xuteng, he also has an audience: Morgana.

Zhuang Xuteng personally added Morgana's name to the guest list and personally greeted her at the door, but he couldn't accompany her afterwards. He is not only a greeter but also a security guard, and his work cannot be sloppy at all. In addition, Morgana is not in the mercenary-middleman industry, so it is not easy to bring matters in the industry to her head.

The two of them had agreed in advance, so they cooperated very well when they met. Zhuang Xuteng took Morgana to the booth in the corner. It was not only quiet but also had a good view. Most of the venue and all entrances and exits could be seen. It was the favorite position of Lucy's mercenaries - including Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao's partners. two. Since everyone in the venue was eating the same food today and there was no ordering service, Zhuang Xuteng could only apologize to Morgana.

Morgana waved her hand and said: "You can go about your business, I will watch from here. Now I am the Holy Light Witch, so don't call me the wrong one."

"Okay, Holy Light Witch." Zhuang Xuteng nodded, suppressed his smile, and continued to complete his mission.

It was indeed a task, and Zhuang Xuteng had to be as focused and patient as he was when entrusting the task. There were a lot of people here today. There was still an hour before lunch started, and 113 people had already come, and the remaining 50 people were expected to be on the way. Zhuang Xuteng must keep an eye on each of them. Any abnormal shadow energy signals are worthy of suspicion.

The most tiring thing was actually remembering names, and he particularly admired Brother Dao for this. As expected of having been in the industry for a long enough time, he knew most of the people who came, could chat with about half of them, and was familiar with at least a third of them. Zhuang Xuteng was very envious when he saw him picking things up with ease and chatting and laughing. At the same time, he also regretted that he did not memorize the guest list in advance.

I have no experience or awareness in this area, and my main energy these past few days has been spent reading magic books and playing with armor-piercing hammers. Zhuang Xuteng seemed a little nervous, but fortunately he had good adaptability and was able to cope with the situation. In fact, everyone knows that he has not been in the industry for a long time, so we don't expect him to know the people here, but the people here should know him.

Scarecrow Neck, a famous mercenary. Although he is not the fastest, he is still a young man who has become famous in a relatively short time since he entered the industry, and deserves everyone's attention. After experiencing the previous "invasion" incident of middlemen from outside the city, the local middlemen in Peicheng became more united and consciously avoided trying to undermine each other. In the next period of time, there will be many opportunities for middlemen to cooperate with each other and mercenaries to cooperate with each other. At this time, you should make more friends and fewer enemies.

It’s 12 noon, let’s start eating! The meals are very simple, with only three kinds of rice bowls to choose from: pure meat, pure vegetarian and meat and vegetable combinations. There is only a small plate of rice, which can be said to be very stingy, and the taste is average and lackluster. The only drinks on the table are tea and juice, and no alcohol at all. Everyone knows what the ceremony is for. People who come here may come here just to watch the fun, but they definitely don’t come here to taste the food. Pick up the spoon and eat as quickly as possible, wipe your mouth after eating, and wait for the waiter in the restaurant to come and clean up.

Lucy is relatively public. She opened such a music restaurant to arrange the people around her, which is considered to be quite humane in the industry. Most intermediaries just open a joint income account, pay monthly, and don't care about anything else. Lucy opens a restaurant and can always take care of the situation of the people around her. Whether it is emergency or disaster relief, she can be more timely, which will of course be better.

It only took fifteen minutes from the time the plates were served to the time they were put away, which was faster than the half-hour reserved for lunch. Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, and many people laughed. Someone yelled at Lucy to start the next program as soon as possible. If she was really stuck in the process, she could go in person and sing or dance for everyone.

Lucy ignored this trick. She sat at the main table at the front, talking with the famine strangers and four other middlemen around her. There were no bands playing, no burlesque performers, just the clock ticking. At half past twelve, Lucy stood up on time and started to move forward with the next step of the process.

"The time is up. Those who come again can only watch and cannot come up to make trouble. Otherwise, it will be an insult to all the punctual and trustworthy people present." Lucy looked around at everyone, then invited the Famine Stranger to explain today's situation.

Everyone speaks quickly and everyone understands. So many mercenaries and middlemen gathered together to witness this moment, not to stay here and be blamed. Fortunately, the competitors from outside the city were crippled a while ago, and the troublesome elements within the PCPD were also eliminated. Now the police and the people are a family, and the external environment is considered to be the best. But it is impossible to completely relax in this line of work, and you must always be alert to the dangers in the dark. Lucy's biggest concern is gangs, and her second most worried is the riot squad.

Zhuang Xuteng stared at the field, and the sound of shooting stars came from his headphones. She used a special channel to talk to Zhuang Xuteng, telling him the situation in the surrounding blocks and the radio network. Only by maintaining a high level of tension can safety and success be achieved. Not only Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao, but also Lucy's mercenaries were all involved in this operation.

Being able to retire the Famine Stranger smoothly is of great significance to every mercenary under Lucy's name. Everyone will grow old and weak at some point, and every successful precedent is a guarantee for future generations. Not only do the mercenaries need to retire, but Lucy will also have time to retire. Taking advantage of the good atmosphere in the industry now, and taking advantage of Hungry Stranger to form a "routine" this time, everyone will have an easy road in the future.

After the three people spoke, the next step was to settle the grudges. The famine stranger stood in front of everyone. Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao were at his left and right hands respectively. The three masters and disciples accepted the test of everyone. The first test is character and favor. The better the relationship with everyone, the more congratulations there will be. Some of the guys who owed favors to the Famine Strangers even said among them: "If anyone wants to fight today, I will go first and repay the favor."

As long as most people can show their support, the retirement ceremony will go smoothly. It was inevitable that someone would say something strange and irritated, but as long as they didn't take action, the famine strangers could only stand on the sidelines and listen. After all, it is a name that has been earned for a long time. Everyone knows that the Famine Stranger is very powerful in combat. Anyone who knows how much he weighs will not really hit him. He will just curse a few times and avoid looking like a thorn in the industry.

Everyone kept talking for more than forty minutes, and then their voices gradually became quieter. At this time, someone shouted: "Stay here and delay business. Who of you doesn't have a lot of things to deal with at home? If there is a fight, go up quickly. Don't wait here until dusk. What are you waiting for? Wait for the PCPD Come here to check your ID?”

Looking left and right, no one seems to be coming up. So the man shouted again: "In addition to settling the grudges, we also need to look at the level of Famine Stranger's apprentices, so that if anyone wants to secretly cause trouble for Famine Stranger, they have to weigh it. For Famine Stranger, If he doesn’t have confidence, he won’t launch apprentices and then retire. So he has to fight anyway, right?”

"Yes! You can't come here and just eat rice bowls and listen to people beeping. Lucy doesn't dance, so there has to be something fun to watch! Who is going to fight? This is also a chance to become famous!"

Zhuang Xuteng scanned the audience and looked at everyone's expressions. He was waiting for the challenger. At this time, the voice of Meteor came from the earphones, and she told Zhuang Xuteng not to worry: "The person who just spoke was the sitter hired by Lucy. Doesn't it add to the atmosphere? Finish the work early and call it a day. Every minute counts!"

In full view of everyone, Zhuang Xuteng couldn't talk to her. There must be some people present who could lip read. He could only listen to Meteor whispering in his ears, and then wait for everyone present to push him into the ring.

After more than ten minutes of pushing and shoving, a strong man finally stood up. That guy is nearly two meters tall and can be considered a little giant, but his figure is a little rounder than Brother Dao. He looked innocent, with a harmless smile, and he bowed his hands to the people around him, and then wanted to challenge Ge Gongdao.

"I can't bully a little guy!" the man said.

Zhuang Xuteng smiled slightly and said that he didn't care. He took a step back, gave up the field to Brother Dao, and went back two minutes later. Ge Gongdao defeated the challenger with three strokes, five divisions and two. Half of the two minutes were spent explaining the rules of the challenge.

Super calculation and five flashes are quite advantageous in melee combat. Ge Gongdao proved that he had learned the martial arts of the Famine Stranger, which proved that this was a true master-disciple inheritance, and it was more about trying favors rather than exchanging benefits.

This is not a business. If a businessman wants to take on a challenge, he must weigh it carefully.
