After the others left, the sky was even gloomier than before.
"It's going to rain. Let's hide for a while."
[It's going to rain. Hurry up and get in the rain.]
Lü Luo: "???"
It was common sense to not get in the rain in the wasteland world. It was mainly because the rain contained a large amount of free dark energy and mutant viruses.
If one was exposed to the unpurified rain for a long time, their body tissues would easily be damaged or mutated.
There were all kinds of diseases, death, and even mutants. To survive in the wasteland, one must do a good job of keeping water and rain out.
But now The Observer was asking him to get in the rain. Was it to make him mutate?
[There is a small amount of fresh dark energy in the rain. Before there are mutant corpses and other methods to extract dark energy, absorbing the dark energy in the rain is one of the few ways to get energy.]
[As for mutation, are you stupid? You even ate a mutant raw. Why are you afraid of rain?]
"I see!"
Although he knew that he could get some energy from the rain in the wasteland, the right thing to do now was to go back to the house to avoid the rain.
Showing his special ability in front of a powerful hunter like Ludi was asking for trouble.
...
The two squatted at the entrance of the exhibition hall. From time to time, there were sounds of impact and explosion upstairs. Needless to say, it was the work of the 33rd Hunter.
"Your colleagues are really violent. If they are all like this, how can they get along with ordinary people?"
"You haven't been outside the wall, so you won't understand even if I explain. The rules inside and outside the wall are different. Whether you can get along with ordinary people depends on whether you can adapt to the rules."
Ludi was a heavy smoker. He smoked one cigarette after another. With his empty eyes and expression, Lü Luo always felt that he would die at any time.
At this time, Lü Luo glanced at the hair in Ludi's hand again. This thing was really important to him.
[You don't want to rob it, do you? I think this is a suicidal behavior. The noble Observer has not seen the host get rid of his virginity. I don't want to die yet.]
"Crawl!" Lü Luo roared in his heart.
Ludi also noticed Lü Luo's gaze, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. It turned out that Lü Luo wasn't really that stubborn.
It was good to have needs. With needs, there would be gains and exchanges. This way, they would be able to communicate better. He simply took the hair in his hand in front of Lü Luo and said in a somewhat formal and somewhat comical tone.
"Kid, what are you looking at? Are you looking at the hair in my hand? Why are you interested in the hair of a mutant? Could it be that he had some special fetish?
Let me tell you, you better not have any improper thoughts. This is important criminal evidence for this incident. It comes from a powerful Third Grade humanoid, the Hair Witch.
I wouldn't let an ordinary person come into contact with this kind of important material evidence. You have to understand the pros and cons of this, understand? "
[Trust me, this person's intentions are very clear. If you have any improper thoughts, you have to do something practical.]
If Ludi was truly a responsible hunter, then he wouldn't have a chance. However, it was obvious that this person wasn't.
Lü Luo understood what Ludi meant. If he wanted the hair, he had to exchange it with something of equal value.
Where there was a need, there would be an exchange of benefits. This was very fair. He pointed at the hair left behind by Qin Wanyu.
"I want three strands."
He really liked this way of communication. This way, no one would lose out. Once a deal was made, there would be opportunities to contact each other in the future.
Establishing contact with someone like Ludi, who was also a hunter, wasn't a bad thing.
"Three strands? So little?"
Ludi thought to himself. He slowly nodded his head. He had originally thought that Lü Luo and the mutant were lovers, and that he wanted the hair to hide information about the mutant.
This kind of fearless spirit of sacrificing for one's lover was worthy of respect. Was the human still in love with the ghost? But now, it seemed like that wasn't the case. Ludi thought to himself.
"Does this kid really have that kind of weird fetish? Collecting mutant items? Ah, just thinking about it makes me sick. It's only three strands. How am I going to charge you? "
Ludi was an old fox. It wasn't the first time he had done something like this. He had to be careful when it came to charging.
Even though Lü Luo looked like a poor student, and three strands of hair wouldn't spoil any clues, this was the remains of a Third Grade mutant. The price couldn't be too low.
"How about this, I won't slander you. Three strands of hair, one thousand dollars."
[Translation: I'm really slandering you. Because I can see that you really want this thing. Three strands of hair, one thousand dollars. Pork is only five dollars per kilo now.
You're an orphan with no pocket money. He's asking for your life. Can't you show some temper, Lü Luo?]
Lü Luo's face was a bit ugly. He wasn't surprised that Ludi was asking for so much. This kind of person was obviously an old fox in the system. Making money was a must.
But you have to be reasonable when making money, right? One thousand dollars didn't sound like a lot, but it depended on one's purchasing power.
"Big brother, you can't ask for money like this. Pork is only five dollars per kilo. One thousand dollars can buy 500 liters of drinking water. You're asking me for one thousand dollars for three strands of hair? Are you out of your mind?
You should know the current economic situation of the Alliance better than I do. I think that if you're short on money, robbing a bank might be faster. "
The wage level of the Wasteland Alliance was average. A normal worker's monthly wage was around three hundred to four hundred dollars. In terms of price, chicken was three dollars per kilo, and pork was five dollars per kilo. It wasn't very expensive.
Normal people could survive in the Wasteland Alliance, but they could only survive. They couldn't live, and there was no future.
This was because the biggest daily expense wasn't food, but water. Currently, the Wasteland Alliance divided the common water sources into five levels. Each level had strict standards.
Level one was normal water. Normal people could use this water to wash their bodies, but it couldn't be ingested. The price was one dollar per kilo for five liters.
Level two was clean water. It could be used to wash vegetables, but many poor people drank it directly. The price was one dollar per kilo for two liters.
Level three was drinking water. The danger index was very low. It could be drunk directly. Normal drinking water was very expensive. It was two dollars per liter.
Level four was pure water. It was completely purified. There was no danger. The price was ten dollars per liter.
Level five was psychic water. It was rich in psychic energy. Usually, only nobles or extraordinary people would use it. Psychic water was similar to rainwater in the Wasteland Alliance. It was just that psychic water was processed multiple times, while rainwater wasn't.
If you only had the income of a normal worker, you would have to spend at least a third of your monthly salary on drinking water and the rest on washing water. Therefore, in the Wasteland, normal people could only survive.
Because of the high cost of drinking water, many wasteland families with insufficient income would choose to drink level two water. This way, they could save a lot of money.
…
Ludi scratched his head as he listened to Lü Luo's complaints. Asking a poor student for 1000 dollars was a bit too much. However, he didn't receive a lower price.
He was the captain of Hunter Squad 13. He couldn't break the bottom line of the industry, right?
"Then what do you say?"
"How about this? Let's change the plan. You give me 1000 dollars, plus three strands of hair. I will give you the important evidence of the exhibition."
[It's over, it's over. The good boy of the Alliance has also fallen. He actually made an unknown deal with a hunter here. Is this the distortion of human nature, or …]
After hearing this, Ludi blinked and suddenly gave a thought-provoking smile.
"What an interesting brat. Don't tell me you actually dare to extend your hand to me. Do you know that I am …"
Lü Luo directly interrupted him. He was very experienced in this kind of verbal confrontation.
He tried to make the opponent speak as little as possible. That way, the initiative of the conversation would always be in his hands.
"I don't care who you are. I have already said my request. 1000 dollars, plus three strands of hair, you can get the important evidence of this matter.
There is a mutant case in the wall, and so many people have died. It must be very big. Your superiors must be very anxious.
If you can provide effective clues, you should be able to receive a good reward. This reward should be far more than 1,000 yuan. "
Lü Luo was very confident. This kind of confidence would also affect others. Even the opponents who were in a verbal confrontation, such as Ludi.
"What if you lie to me?"
"You are powerful, and your status is far higher than mine. How can I lie to you? Do I not want to live anymore? "
[Countless human pioneers have proven that if you want a person to be comfortable, flattery is the most effective. But how can you hold your anger in and still flatter people? Teach me!]
Ludi was a little happy. And Ludi had to admit that Lü Luo's evidence was very attractive to him.
However, he kept feeling that something was wrong. Just now, he was clearly asking Lv Luo for money, but now, it was the other way around. This made him feel uncomfortable, as if he had eaten a fly.
