Chapter 779 Bounty Hunter
"Yes!" Hogg responded loudly, and then asked curiously, "My lord, who do you think is that guy who is hiding behind the scenes and peeping? With the character of house elves, generally speaking, they don't take the initiative to give birth." I'm afraid it was instigated by its master, right?"
It's not surprising that Hogg would think so. Creatures like house elves have always been known for their timidity, cowardice, and loyalty.
Even Qiqi only awakened her will after years of education by Anduin, but even so, she is usually in a kind state.
So it's hard to believe that a house-elf would jump out and initiate trouble.
"It's very possible." Anduin also agreed, "However, we need more intelligence support. You and Qiqi should go and investigate first, and I will keep an eye on those three brats."
Hogg nodded when he heard the words, he knew that his boss was probably going to use the usual 'surveillance method' again.
After Hogg left, Anduin thought for a moment, and instead of continuing to deal with the business at hand, he dressed neatly and entered the ranch space through any door.
Immediately afterwards, Anduin went straight into the research building in the ranch, and walked deep.
After opening an experimental door with multiple locks, dozens or hundreds of human-shaped experimental chambers with glass on one side appeared in front of Anduin.
However, most of these experimental chambers are empty at this time, and there are only a few naked humanoid creatures soaked in nutrient solution.
And when these remaining humanoid creatures found Anduin, they immediately widened their eyes and looked at him begging for mercy. .
But now they seem to have lost all their strength, they can't even move in the nutrient solution, they can't even open their mouths to make a sound, the only thing they can do is slowly wriggle like maggots while blinking constantly.
"Hey..." Anduin sighed, "There are only 1 female human, 2 male humans, 1 male werewolf, 1 goblin and 2 Grindyllos left in the spare materials. Not enough for the Deathly Hallows experiments."
After thinking about it, Anduin could only shake his head helplessly, "It seems that we still have to go back to the 'old place' to pick up another batch of goods."
Immediately afterwards, he turned and left the room, ignoring the still conscious humanoids.
After closing the experiment door again, Anduin walked down the stairs of the research institute to the next floor, and opened another door at the same time.
In the room inside the door, there is a circle of petal-like random doors. Above each door is a sign with different country names written on it.
Obviously, any door here can lead to various countries.
But since these were all set up by Anduin privately, it means that it is actually illegal to cross borders through any of these doors. In fact, the Ministry of Magic of any country will not tolerate the existence of a passage that can enter and exit one's own country at will.
This will undoubtedly add a lot of security burden to them, so Anduin rarely uses this method to enter and leave other countries, and normally uses the Leona to travel.
But what he is going to do now cannot be known to the Ministry of Magic of other countries.
Anduin took out a black windbreaker and put it on, and then pulled out a faceless mask similar to the Silver Spear Club, except that his hands were black.
Putting on the equipment, Anduin went straight to the door that said America.
After passing through the door, he appeared in a light-tight house. This is Anduin's safe house in the United States. It has almost no other functions except for placing random doors. The whole room does not even have doors and windows.
Therefore, Anduin did not continue to stay here, and an apparition immediately left the place.
When he reappeared, he had already appeared in a pine forest away from human habitation. Since it was dusk in the United States at this time, the sunlight from the slanted thorns cast long and thin shadows on the trees and Anduin.
After landing, Anduin took out a communicator from his body and sent something.
After waiting for half an hour, just as the sun was about to set, two phantom black smoke descended from the sky not far from Anduin.
Immediately afterwards, a 30-year-old male with some oriental ancestry, and a middle-aged man with brown hair and a bushy beard appeared from Apparition.
"Liszt, David, long time no see." Anduin greeted the two first after seeing them.
The two people who arrived did not immediately respond to Anduin's greetings, but looked at each other warily, and the younger Liszt was the first to speak out, "Sue Bird, haven't you been away from America for a long time? ? Why did it suddenly appear here?"
"Do you need to think about it?" David beside him smiled contemptuously, "Of course he came here by smuggling, otherwise how could we not receive the news with our authority, after all, he is the famous Mr. Death Bird..."
"What? Still resenting me for robbing your prey? The famous mad dog David in the bounty hunter world doesn't even have this bit of courage, does he?" Anduin sneered and looked at the bearded man in front of him.
"How dare you!"
David put on a look of being flattered, but he didn't know if it was true or just being weird.
"You are a legend in our industry. It is an honor to be robbed by you. It is just a few dark wizards worth more than 1000 Galleons!"
"Okay! Don't be cynical here..." Li Sterlie, who has a relatively reserved personality, gave David a look, "Aren't you afraid of offending the dead bird, and killed us in a fit of anger? With his strength, You and I are afraid that we won’t even be able to escape.”
"Oops!" David patted his thigh in shock, "If it wasn't for the awakening of our 'Battlefield Magician', I would have almost gotten into big trouble!"
Then David put on a fawning expression again, and pretended to say, "Master Deathbird, you won't mind my little offense, will you?"
Anduin couldn't help rolling his eyes speechlessly as he saw the two singing the oboe.
Why are these two idiots still the same?
The Liszt and David in front of him were the two colleagues Anduin met when he was a guest bounty hunter during his travels in America, and gradually became acquainted with each other later on, and they can be regarded as half of his friends.
Among them, although David is known as a mad dog, he has a very cheerful personality and is very friendly to his friends. He just likes to joke with others and is always surprised. However, when he is a bounty hunter, he occasionally behaves very extreme , He often kills when he is unhappy, which is also the origin of his nickname.
The other Liszt is much calmer than David, and has a strong sense of justice. Although he usually doesn't talk much, in Anduin's eyes, it is purely boring, and he is known for his unscrupulous methods in battle, whether it is Magic is still a Muggle weapon, as long as it is used, there is no taboo.
"Okay, I made a special trip to the United States, and I didn't come to joke with you." Anduin said with a straight face.
"Okay, okay, I'm relieved to see that our Mr. Sue Bird still looks the same as before." David shrugged helplessly.
"So why did you sneak back to the United States? With your status, the Magic Congress shouldn't hinder your entry?" Liszt also asked seriously, and then raised his eyebrows curiously, "Could it be that you are Was hunted down, and then escaped?"
"It makes sense!" David also echoed, and then he pretended to look around, "You don't want to make trouble, do you? Let us serve as a shield for you?"
"Have you guys had enough trouble?" Anduin was powerless to complain to these two guys at this moment.
"Okay, okay." David smiled and waved his hand, "But why don't you settle the cost of summoning us first, Chenghui 10 Galleons each, Liszt and I are both busy people!"
Anduin didn't show any surprise when he heard the words, he skillfully took out two small bags and threw them at them. These bounty hunters always recognize money but not people, and they charge for everything they do.
Many people can even backstab their employers or act as guest criminals. The two in front of them are already considered to be the bottom line among the bounty hunters.
The two took the purse, weighed it carefully, and looked at him with a smile.
"Come on, what's the rush? Normally you wouldn't contact us in this way." Liszt asked first as a representative.
"How is the recent situation in the United States? Is it still as chaotic as before?"
"What? You don't want to come here to grab business from us again, do you?" David looked at Anduin warily, and then stretched out his hand very naturally, "Information fee, 10 galleons."
He glanced at the other party speechlessly, and then Anduin threw out two money bags honestly. According to the rules of the road, he was asking two people at this time, and the reward would naturally be two parts, even if one of them was later The same goes for not saying a word.
"You should know that the United States has never been peaceful." After receiving the payment, Liszt performed his duties in a very orderly manner.
"Especially after you left, the scavengers and the vampires of the Sabbat Alliance showed signs of rising. Recently, there have been several No-Maj attacks in the east where I was active. All the victims lost their blood."
"After preliminary investigation, it should be concluded that the Sabbat Alliance did it. We guess it should be the Zmisi family. After all, the Lesenbra family has been killed by you and is almost extinct. Of course, the Magic Congress has also issued a reward for this. The bounty is quite attractive."
David on the other side also added, "The west where I was active was mainly scavengers who were looking for trouble. They attacked a wizarding community, and finally injured 5 people and killed 2. The local community issued a large reward for this. .”
After that, David gave Anduin a blank look, "Speaking of which, it all depends on you killing their deputy leader, otherwise the Purge wouldn't have resurfaced to provoke trouble."
The scavengers mentioned by David are a group of terrorists in the United States. These people were actually a group of mercenaries in the early years.
It's just that after their organization expanded, many of them became greedy for profit. In the later stage, no matter whether they were criminals or not, as long as they could be exchanged for bounties, the scavengers would choose to hunt and kill them.
And they indulged in acts of brutality that were not worthy of their mission. These scavengers relished bloodshed and torture, and even began to traffic their fellow wizards.
Later, due to the incident, they attracted a large-scale siege from the Magic Congress. The remaining people began to be hostile to all wizards because of hatred. Whenever they had the opportunity, they would launch actions similar to genocide against the wizarding community.
"Don't rely on me for everything." Anduin ignored David's complaints, and just talked about the business on his own, "I came to the United States this time, not for any bounty, but to make a fortune with you trade."
"Oh?"
David and Liszt glanced at each other, then looked at Anduin with great interest, "What deal?"
"After you hunt the target." Anduin looked at the two indifferently, "hand them over to me, and I will provide a higher bounty than the Magic Congress and the local community."
The lack of experimental materials was imminent, and the idea he could think of now was to buy those criminals from local bounty hunters in the United States, which would save time and not have to bear any official consequences.
"Are you trying to cut off the beard?" David raised his eyebrows in surprise, but he didn't ask the other party why he did this.
Because there are many similar things here, besides the Magic Congress, many individuals and organizations will issue rewards separately.
"Price? Request?"
Liszt on the side didn't even question it, and asked the price directly on the spot. Anyway, for the justice in his heart, those criminals are not worthy of poor villains. It would be great if they could be sold for a better vacation. but.
"Human wizards, vampires, werewolves, alive, and keep their limbs intact, regardless of gender and age, I can pay you 1.2 times the official bounty, and there is no limit to the number." Anduin said simply Said.
"As long as you live? You have to keep your limbs intact..." Liszt pondered for a moment, and at the same time exchanged opinions with David, before countering, "Your request is too harsh, we want 1.5 times."
"Deal!" Anduin himself knew that his request was relatively strict, and he didn't want to be entangled in money for too long.
"Okay!" David rubbed his hands excitedly, "Let's make an agreement in advance, as long as the target meets the standards, it doesn't matter whether we capture it ourselves or not? Even if I bought it from another hunter. Slightly."
"No problem!" Anduin nodded, "Also, if you encounter an enemy that you really can't solve, you can also contact me in advance to help, and the bounty will be paid after the prey is captured."
"Hey, it seems that you are in a hurry." David saw Anduin's eagerness, "But thanks to you daring to say this, and the quantity is not limited, aren't you afraid that we will sell you out of bankruptcy?"
"Then I'm looking forward to your good news, but you pay attention to your bottom line. I don't want to see someone come to exchange money with me with civilian wizards."
Anduin glanced at the two of them coldly, and then an apparition disappeared in place.

"Yes!" Hogg responded loudly, and then asked curiously, "My lord, who do you think is that guy who is hiding behind the scenes and peeping? With the character of house elves, generally speaking, they don't take the initiative to give birth." I'm afraid it was instigated by its master, right?"
It's not surprising that Hogg would think so. Creatures like house elves have always been known for their timidity, cowardice, and loyalty.
Even Qiqi only awakened her will after years of education by Anduin, but even so, she is usually in a kind state.
So it's hard to believe that a house-elf would jump out and initiate trouble.
