amaotonovel Chapter 846: Maximum Reward
Chapter 846: Maximum Reward
Lin Yu and Shen Bingmiao spent a lot of effort to make the younger students in the drama club understand that they were not in a secret relationship.
At least on the surface, everyone believed their explanation.
College students in their late teens and early twenties are surrounded by all kinds of rose colors.
In addition, people are naturally fond of gossip, so when they encounter any disturbance, they are always willing to speculate about romantic plots.
Although Lin Yu was helpless, he understood.
After the drama club members happily ate up all the cake in Lin Yu's room, they gathered together to chat.
Daytime performances, campus gossip, recently released movies, and trending searches for popular celebrities...
The room was noisy and even with the air conditioner turned up to 16 degrees, one could still feel the slight stuffiness.
Fortunately, most of this floor was booked by Shen Bingmiao, and the sound insulation was very good, so it would not disturb the guests resting next door.
Lin Yu and Shen Bingmiao also participated in these topics from time to time.
Soon an hour or two passed, and everyone felt sleepy and left one after another.
Shen Bingmiao also took this opportunity to leave Lin Yu's room.
After lying on the bed, Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that a lot of his energy had been consumed - but he did not feel too much mental fatigue.
Just as he was about to fall into a deep sleep, Lin Yu suddenly received a prompt from the [Social] panel.
Li Hua finally sent a message.
"Go to the 'hunting party' now, there's a bounty on your head."
“It’s a huge amount.”
The two consecutive messages made Lin Yu wake up instantly.
He immediately reached for his phone, opened the "Hunting Club" app, and immediately found the post about his bounty.
After all, this post is very popular now, almost locked at the top of the "Hunting Club" bounty section, and can be seen at a glance.
The reason is also very simple.
"Reward for the 'Director', dead or alive, 50 million or one of the following Items."
The poster is anonymous, and three [props] are posted in the post.
[Echoes of Mu Continent], [Scroll of Earth], [Deed to the Twelfth Island].
"Fifty million?!"
When Lin Yu saw the amount, he was shaken.
"Is there any way to make this guy think the 'director' is dead? Using a 'mask' or some 'props' combination... it seems possible?"
But this thought only came to his mind for a moment, and Lin Yu dismissed it on his own.
After all, although Lin Yu wants money, it is now more of an inertial thinking.
If you think about it carefully, the money I have now is enough to spend.
And the real reason for making money that made him need a lot of money is no longer there.
Giving up the identity of "director" for "50 million" is not a good idea.
But Lin Yu did not completely give up the idea of deceiving the publisher.
after all……
Although money is not important, are there any of these three [props] worth trying?
The other two didn't know, but [Earth Scroll] Lin Yu knew clearly...
That is a [divine artifact] that is as famous as the [Heavenly Book] and comes from the City That Never Sleeps in the Great Wilderness Realm!
Although he didn't know why it leaked out of the City That Never Sleeps and fell into the hands of players, Lin Yu, who had witnessed the power of the [Heavenly Book], would definitely not underestimate this [Earthly Scroll].
Lin Yu immediately pulled Lao Zheng out.
"Old Zheng, someone has offered me a reward. Take a look at these three [props]. The first and third ones. I recognize the [Earth Book], so I won't need to tell you."
As Lin Yu spoke, Lao Zheng immediately got into the state.
After two brief flashes, Lao Zheng's voice revealed shock.
"Oh my! The first [Echo of Mu Continent] is the 'Nine Treasures of the Purifying Ruins,' and the third [Deed to the Twelfth Island] is from Kirishima—literally, it's the deed to the Twelfth Island of Kirishima. Taking it will make you the legal owner of Kirishima's Twelfth Island."
Lin Yu looked solemn when he heard what Lao Zheng said.
Sure enough, these two [props] are about the same level as the [Earth Book]!
These are much more useful than money.
Just from the first [Item], Lin Yu knew that he might have to face a powerful "Level 3" from the [Free Alliance] who was dedicated to collecting the "Nine Treasures of Jingxu".
Old Zheng obviously has a similar opinion.
"The other side really invested a lot of money... Boss, that's quite impressive," Old Zheng said with a sigh. "To be honest, these three [props] are much more useful than you—I'm referring to your role as 'director'."
"The value of your true identity is far greater than one or two divine artifacts... but, logically speaking, you shouldn't be able to reveal it."
Lin Yu nodded. "That's really strange. It's impossible for any player to know my true 'value'... So in other words, the 'value' that the 'Director' has shown so far is enough for him to offer this price, right?"
"A certain [gear] controlled by the 'Director', or the very existence of the 'Director', holds special significance to a certain expert... and if life or death is of no consequence, then the main concern for the bounty seeker is the absence of the 'Director'."
Although Lin Yu's identity as a "director" is indeed high-profile, the fact that someone is offering such a high price for his reward and is eager to get rid of him as soon as possible... still makes Lin Yu unable to think of a candidate.
Especially the one who can come up with these [props] is definitely not a simple character.
"Since these items aren't cheap, can we infer the identity of the person who offered the bounty from them?"
Lao Zheng expressed his helplessness: "I'm not sure about that. I know the names of these three [items], but that's all I know... I've heard of them in the Three Realms, but I don't know who actually possesses them. Even when I was active, it's not certain whether these [items] fell into the hands of players."
Lin Yu nodded: "It doesn't matter, just investigate slowly."
Since the message came from Li Hua... let's make use of the connections on the Order side first.
"These items aren't simple to come by, and they're not something you can get as a player. Since they're willing to offer a bounty, can we investigate this aspect?"
At the same time, Lin Yu also forwarded this post to Shen Bingmiao who had just left.
"Someone offered me a reward, please help me."
then……
Lin Yu thought about it and took the initiative to share this post in the group chat of [Free Alliance] using the account of "Zhu Ming".
[Zhu Ming: Someone's offering a bounty for the "Director," and it seems one of the optional rewards is "Nine Treasures of the Pure Land."]
【Braised Carp King: @Never Air Force】
【Never Air Force: Received】
[Braised Carp King: I got your head. Do you want to accept the bounty or be the one who posted it?]
[Never Air Force: What is the bounty? ]
[Prisoner: Capturing the Dog Trainer's Boyfriend]
[Designer: I think we should rush to issue the bounty.]
Zhu Ming: He is not my boyfriend. If you want to attack him, feel free to do so.
[Thief Anian: @Never Air Force, if you can find the identity of the person who posted the bounty, I can steal it for you]
[Embarkantist-Xiaoyun: Zhu Ming, can you contact your boyfriend and ask him to cooperate with us to lure that guy out?]
[Embarkantist-Xiaoyun: I want that land deed]
Zhu Ming: He’s really not my boyfriend.
AAA Building Materials' Lao Wu: Damn, offering a bounty on the family of our new member? How can we tolerate this? Screw him!
[Qian Huan: I guess Zhu Ming’s next sentence will be “He’s not my family member either.”]
Zhu Ming: He is not my family member either.
Zhu Ming: ?
[Comedian: Holy shit, Qian Huan, you're amazing!]
