Zombie World(5)

A few minutes later…

Chen Chang left the tent despondent, the expression on his face already revealing many things.

"Was the information worth any money?" One of them asked hopefully, but the expectation was low.

"Just this little…" Three purple bills with the number ten stamped on them were shown.

On the back was the symbol of a lit torch with two crossed swords. This was the symbol of the International Hunters Association.

The currency was called Credit and is valid anywhere in the world, but the value changes according to the exchange rate.

Thus, thirty Credits in China are worth about sixty RMB after the conversion without tax.

The value was too low.

"This amount can only pay for my lunch…" One of them complained in dismay.

"Number 99, what are you going to do? After that payment, I'm even disheartened to stay here. Not worth the risk" Another commented.

Only by going to more dangerous places, it was possible to discover more secrets, but as low-level Hunters, they would die if they were surrounded by a horde of zombies. So it was better to go somewhere else or wait for the location to be mapped by the veterans.

"I will stay at this location to explore, but wait a bit." Liu Yang walked to the queue so he could report on some of the things he discovered.

"..." The trio didn't understand what he could report because it's already been reported what they found.

It didn't take Liu Yang long to enter the hut.

The interior was a small place with just two chairs and a table in the middle. In one of the chairs was a middle-aged man writing down the reported things, next to him were suitcases with a lot of money.

"Hello…" Liu Yang tried to be friendly as he spoke, but he couldn't even finish before being interrupted.

"I don't have time for introductions, just tell me what you found out" The middle-aged man didn't even look forward and continued writing something.

"I have discovered that there is a possibility that there is a high-level, intelligent creature commanding a horde of zombie dogs on the south side of the city."

"..." The man finally stopped writing and looked at Liu Yang.

The information was really helpful.

"Why are you stating this? Is there any proof?" He asked.

"No. But there are some indications of this. The slightly stronger zombies like those dogs with their mouths instead of their heads always charge toward the invaders when the territory is invaded, but retreat when the invaders move away. Normally, this sort of thing doesn't happen. Also, the zombie dogs seemed to be in an orderly state when charging." Liu Yang explained his opinion of what he saw, but part of that was based on the quest information.

"..." The man was thoughtful for a few moments before taking three wads of cash and handing them to Liu Yang.

"Take this as a reward for the information, three thousand Credits"

"Thank you" He took the money and left.

The middle-aged man went back to doing what he was doing before.

Another person entered shortly thereafter.

"Number 99, did you find out anything?"

"You can have this. There are fifteen hundred Credits. I'll stay with the other fifteen hundred."

"WHAT???!!!!" The trio couldn't believe what they were hearing because it sounded so insane and absurd.

Three thousand Credits was not a small amount. That was the equivalent of six thousand RMB for the conversion.

The money was enough to live on for two or three months.

"Number 99, is this for real?" The trio didn't dare believe what they were hearing.

The value of the information reported by Liu Yang was thousands of times greater than the information reported by Chen Chang.

What had he said? The trio failed to notice.

"Yes. Are five hundred credits enough for you?" Liu Yang took the half because he was the person who reported it.

"No. This is great!! Five hundred Credits equals one thousand RMB, my family can have a smooth month with that amount. Normally, we only get around five hundred RMB per month. One thousand RMB is a great value. Number 99, thanks for the help" The trio thanked him from the bottom of their hearts. They were really grateful for the help.

"No problem. I will say goodbye." Liu Yang wanted to stay a few more hours to defeat more low-level zombies and complete the quest as quickly as possible.

"Until some other day"

The two sides part ways.

"..." Liu Yang left the square to head in another direction of the city, but his heightened senses sensed someone behind him.

Without showing that he had noticed this, he continued walking toward an abandoned building as if he was just casually walking to explore the place.

Looking from the outside, the building was covered in dense vegetation like thick branches, and a large tree inside, sticking out through one of the holes.

The interior was completely dark and without any kind of lighting, but some lights glowed inside as the golden rays sliced ​​through the skies.

Liu Yang's light steps were like feathers touching the ground.

No sound was made or heard.

The strong and icy wind blew from all sides, a lot of dust was raised.

A group of four people stood at the entrance looking at the building before deciding whether or not to enter.
