Volume 4, Chapter 43 – There Is a Reason the Bounty Is This High

[Found a field Boss. Coordinates xx, xx. Get over here, quick!]

[Holy crap, I got insta-killed the moment I went up. I’m so mad!]

[This humanoid tentacle monster is so strong!]

[The female teammate in our party has already been scared to tears. Recruiting two male healers to heal her.]

[What the hell is a male healer?]

[Come, come, come, I’ve got milk here. 36E super-powered. Who wants some!]

No. 1886’s exclusive forum was now full of similar posts calling for help.

After all…

This was the first field Boss.

A level 23 field Boss.

A field Boss that had been injured the moment it appeared.

A field Boss that looked extremely evil and badass.

A field Boss that looked like it could drop plenty of good stuff.

Experiment Subject No. 24 was also in despair. It did not want things to be like this either.

He had suffered severe injuries, carried a chest full of anger, resentment, and thirst for blood, and had only barely escaped from the base. Yet the moment he came out, he ran into several humans who looked like “idiots.”

When those weak little “bugs” saw him, not only were they not afraid, they even drew their guns and started shooting while shouting noisily for no reason.

In a fit of rage, No. 24 used his tentacles to stab those three “bugs” to death.

And then, the nightmare descended.

More and more suicidal “bugs” kept rushing over.

They surrounded him from a distance and very insidiously opened fire. Some even threw bombs at him.

Even though his body was very tough, the injured No. 24 still discovered that his wounds were getting worse and worse. He wanted to run, but he could not get away. The terrain in this damned place was terrible, and he had no way to make use of his speed advantage at all.

“Roaaar!”

No. 24 roared dryly in anger.

The only way out was to run to the open ground nearby.

He was really too unlucky!

“Haha, this Boss is almost done for!”

“Increase output! We absolutely can’t let it escape.”

“The first kill of the field Boss belongs to our Candlefire Guild!”

“Brothers, give our Santiago Guild some face. As long as you let us have this first-kill opportunity, the terms are negotiable!”

“FP. You think only your Santiago Guild has money? Our West Tower Guild is the first to object!”

“Eat lemons!” “Milk tea!” “You bunch of scallops!”

“Rice dumpling, I can’t even be bothered with you.” “Meal card!” “Lemon cup!”

After an intense six-hit combo of food-based insults, the people from West Tower Guild and Santiago Guild were all flushed with anger.

However, at this moment, the situation on the field suddenly changed.

“Oh no, the Boss is about to charge out. The people on the edge can’t stop it at all.”

“Hurry up and support them! Why are you still arguing about lemon cups? Fuck.”

“It’s over, it’s over.”

After a burst of chaos, the heavily injured No. 24 swept out with his tentacles, instantly killing the two players blocking his way. By the time the members of West Tower Guild and Santiago Guild came back to their senses and tried to close in, it was already too late. They could only shoot from a distance.

However, the opening had already been torn open, so how could No. 24 let such an opportunity slip away?

Enduring two shots to his tentacles, No. 24 grabbed a protruding rock and launched himself straight out like a slingshot.

His speed was extremely fast, and his smaller body made him look incomparably agile.

Very quickly, he pulled away from the players.

Hahahaha!

“Roaaar!”

Letting out a pleased sound, No. 24’s eyes carried an icy killing intent as he turned his head to look at the players who were either frustrated, furious, or despairing.

Let me remember your faces. Once I recover from my injuries, I’ll come back and kill every single one of you.

Stupid, cowardly bugs!

Hm?

A startled look suddenly appeared on No. 24’s face.

He clearly saw two “bugs” in the crowd whom he had killed before.

At first, No. 24 thought they only looked similar, but their clothes and the weapons they used were exactly the same. No. 24 had no choice but to feel alarmed.

What exactly was going on?

Why had the “bugs” he killed revived? Could they be clones?

“Bang!”

At this moment, a sudden, tremendous impact shook the entire field.

No. 24’s body flew straight into midair, then crashed heavily onto the ground.

“Damn it! Trying to pull an accident scam?”

An off-road vehicle screeched to a stop at the spot where No. 24 had just appeared.

It was a black off-road vehicle, with lines that looked extremely rigid.

Then the window was rolled down, and a head with long, light flaxen hair poked out from inside.

“Anran, Anran, I think we hit someone to death!”

The one who poked her head out was Anran, her face full of anger.

Use Scout on the unlucky bastard who got hit.

Name: Experiment Subject No. 24 [Heavily Injured] [Incomplete] [Bleeding]

Hm?

Anran’s eyes narrowed. That fellow lying on the ground had a back covered in tentacles. Wasn’t he the Experiment Subject No. 24 who had escaped from the laboratory before?

Interesting.

Anran nimbly climbed out of the car.

Double-barreled spray gun. Explosive Rounds fired in succession.

“Roaaar!”

The heavily injured No. 24 could only keep wailing. He had been knocked over onto the ground, and for a moment, he did not even know who was shooting at him.

After an Explosive Round hit No. 24, it instantly detonated. The originally narrow wound immediately widened to the size of a bowl.

Even though he had thick skin, tough flesh, high defense, and a large HP pool, after Anran’s burst of continuous fire, No. 24 still died.

“Wuaao!”

“You have killed the incomplete Experiment Subject No. 24 and obtained 21,000 Free EXP.”

Huh. She could level up again.

Anran checked her Free EXP value: 183,000.

This really was someone delivering a pillow just when she wanted to sleep.

The formerly powerful Experiment Subject No. 24 was now something Anran would not fear at all, even if he had not been injured.

“They say revenge should never wait overnight. Yours was delayed by one day, but the efficiency was still pretty good. Your tactics and technique were just a little shabby,” Anran muttered to herself.

She looked at the front of the off-road vehicle and could not help feeling a little pained. It was dented inward.

Why was this bastard so hard? Annoying. Repairing the car was going to cost another sum of money.

“Anran, Anran, is this the tentacle monster from yesterday?”

“Mm.” Anran nodded. “All right, another potential enemy has been dealt with. Let’s keep going.”

She placed her hand on the car door and was just about to open it when a furious shout came from behind her.

“Bastard, what did you do?”

Hm?

Anran turned around and saw several furious-looking players staring at her. They were holding weapons in their hands, trembling all over from anger.

How could they not be angry?

Although that field Boss had broken out of the encirclement, there was at least still a chance to kill it. But now, an NPC who had suddenly appeared had taken it away in one combo, leaving them not even a sip of soup.

A Boss had been killed, but in the end, nothing had dropped.

What a huge, huge, huge waste.

This was also one of the more awkward things about Anran. Unless there was a mission involved, when she “farmed monsters,” they would not drop anything. She could only pick up the items the “monster” had been carrying.

“That’s Anran!”

At this moment, someone from Santiago Guild stepped forward.

Rеαd оո KatRеаԁіnɡCаfе

“Anran? Which Anran?”

“The Anran that Morningstar put a 1.5 million Bilu bounty on!”

“Holy shit, for real?”

“Oh no, why did Anran suddenly appear here?” The players from West Tower Guild and the players on the government army side were also greatly shocked at this moment.

There were at least nearly a hundred players here. Roughly speaking, half of them were not on the government army side. If they all targeted Anran at the same time, then wouldn’t Anran…

That would not do!

How could an NPC young lady who looked this good and was this strong die here?

While they were chattering and more and more people kept approaching, Anran did not pause at all.

The moment she was recognized, she sat directly in the driver’s seat.

Then, the Machine Gun Warrior Generation 1 in the back row was awakened. It opened the rear window and revealed its strong chest.

With its broad bosom, it embraced the green world outside.

“Hm, what is that thing?”

“Bang!”

Someone had already fired, but the bullet was blocked by a Lig Alloy plate that Anran suddenly picked up.

“Mm!”

Aila puffed up her cheeks. That was clearly her lunch today, an alloy flatbread!

Anran had actually taken it to block bullets!

The chest opened wide, and a pair of machine guns extended from it.

“I…”

“Rat-tat-tat-tat-tat…”

Flames sprayed from the muzzles.

Merciless bullets poured out like a rainstorm. With the assistance of the auto-aim code, even though these were ferocious machine guns, their accuracy was still quite exaggerated.

“It’s a machine gun! Run!”

“Damn it, I only just ran over from the respawn point.”

“Fuck, my first time!”

“Emmm… Giving my first time to Anran doesn’t seem too bad either.”

“Hurry up and stop! There are friendlies here!”

Anran could not care about that much. With so many players here, how could she tell which ones were allies and which ones were enemies?

Following the principle that it was better to kill by mistake than let anyone go, the Machine Gun Warrior Generation 1 directly emptied its 75*2 magazine.

After that, Anran stepped on the accelerator, leaving behind a ground full of player corpses as she departed in style.

“S-so scary!”

“What was that thing just now?”

Rеaⅾ οո КаtRеaԁіnɡCαfe

“It looked like a robot.”

“I finally understand why Anran’s bounty is 1.5 million.”

“S-so cool.”

The surviving players were all left disheveled in the wind.

So this was the strength of an elite monster?

Just now, many people had already thrown Scout at Anran. Although they could not see her specific attributes, everyone had clearly seen the word [Elite].

…

That round just now killed a total of 43 players.

EXP gained: 73,100.

Title [Most Evil Person Lv2] progress: 46/50.

Only 4 short.

What a pity, but it was not a big problem. She just had to find some time to kill four more players.

This title was currently the title that improved Anran the most, and it would very likely remain so in the future.

After all, players could never be killed off completely. The growth potential of this title was full of infinite possibilities!

“Wash this clean before eating it later. We’ll eat this for lunch today.”

Anran took out another Lig Alloy flatbread.

Aila happily accepted the “flatbread.” She had never eaten food of such high quality before.

One bite, crisp and crunchy. So fragrant.

Crunch, crunch. A piece of metal flatbread soon entered Aila’s stomach.

“Anran, Anran, are there more?” Aila widened her eyes and looked at Anran eagerly.

“Here.”

Anran handed over another metal flatbread.

Crunch, crunch.

“Anran, An…”

“Here.”

Aila ate 6 pieces in a row before finally sitting upright in satisfaction.

Speaking of which, why had Aila’s appetite suddenly become so large again? The moment she thought of this, Anran immediately threw a Scout over.

Name: Aila

Race: Machina

Gender: Female

Level: 19 (………)
