I Have A Game Clone Chapter 263 – 263 Bounty

263 Bounty

Ning Shi checked the small world in his body and realized that the game system had given him a notification.

[ Do you wish to consume 1000 units of the world's essence power to further evolve the Yanhuang Small World? Yes, No]

Ning Shi chose yes.

The Yanhuang Small World was originally a square base with a pile of various materials floating in the world.

At this moment, as the world's origin power was consumed, the world's interior began to evolve.

Materials were continuously added to the square base, and the square base began to distort and gradually expand.

About two hours later, the square base transformed into the shape of a planet.

On the planet, there were only some mountains and water sources. There was still no sunlight, no airflow, and no living beings. Everything was still dark and gloomy.

After another hour, the evolution was completed.

The information on the Yanhuang Small World changed.

[ Name: Yanhuang Small World ]

[ Level: 3 ]

[ World's essence power production rate: 200 units/day ]

[ World's essence power balance: 0 units ]

[ Upgrade requirements: 1 trillion tons of any substance, 2000 units of the world's essence power. ]

[ Remarks: The newly established small world has taken another solid step forward. Although it is only a small planet, it contains the hope of life. ]

Ning Shi was still the same as before. He transformed into a space beast and destroyed a planet in the World of Moen. According to the material capacity of the Yanhuang Small World, he stored 5 trillion tons of material into the Yanhuang Small World.

After 10 days, when the world's essence power had accumulated enough, the small world could be upgraded again.

After dealing with these matters, Ning Shi switched his perspective and immersed his main consciousness into the game avatar of the Titanium Pole World.

As usual, Ning Shi received the game clone's memory of the past ten days and checked the system's log.

[ Killed a Level 1 radioactive creature, three-horned elk. Obtained 2000 EXP. ]

[ Level 4 biochemical technique used. Successfully decomposed the corpse of the three-horned elk and triggered the multi-burst trait. Obtained 10 pounds of Level 1 jelly meat, 1 three-horned elk black horn, and 5 portions of three-horned elk's meat essence.”

[ Killed a Level 1 radioactive creature, three-horned elk. Obtained 2000 EXP. ]

[ Killed a Level 2 radioactive creature, a green-eyed wolf. Obtained 5000 EXP. ]

…

[ Butcher profession leveled up to LV14 (0/35000), Physique +1, Skill Point +1, Potential Point +1. The host has mastered the true meaning of evasion in close combat, awakening a new talent, a shapeless phantom (blue).”

[ Shapeless Phantom (blue): As you roam the wilderness, your body gradually becomes one with the wilderness and you have the instinct to dodge. When you are in stealth in the wilderness, the probability of being discovered is reduced by 20%. When you are attacked, the probability of forced evasion is reduced to 15%. ]

It was another new talent. This talent was very powerful in close combat and was very suitable for survival in the wild. Ning Shi was very satisfied after reading the log.

[ Killed a Level 2 radioactive creature, a green-eyed wolf. Obtained 5000 EXP. ]

[ Used biochemical technique Level 4. Successfully decomposed the corpse of the green-eyed wolf and triggered the multi-burst trait. Obtained 4 pounds of Level 2 jelly meat, 1 green-eyed wolf, and 3 portions of green-eyed wolf's meat essence.”

…

[ Butcher profession leveled up to LV15 (0/50000), Constitution +1, Skill Point +1, Potential Point +1, Talent shapeless phantom (blue) leveled up to shapeless phantom (gold). ]

[ Killed a Level 1 radioactive creature, three-horned elk. Obtained 2000 EXP. ]

…

[ Butcher profession leveled up to LV16 (0/90000), Constitution +1, Skill Point +1, Potential Point +1. ]

…

[ Butcher profession leveled up to LV17 (0/150000), Constitution +1, Skill Point +1, Potential Point +1. ]

…

[ Butcher profession leveled up to LV18 (0/260000), Constitution +1, Skill Point +1, Potential Point +1. ]

Everything was normal up to this point. After the game avatar leveled up, its strength became stronger and stronger. In addition, it was equipped with a heavy weapon, the alloy battle hammer.

The efficiency of killing the radioactive creatures was getting higher and higher.

In just eight days, the clone had killed 125 three-horned elks and 37 green-eyed wolves under the system hack.

On average, he could kill about 20 radioactive creatures a day, earning a total of 435,000 experience points, raising his Butcher's level to LV18 (170000/260000).

The increase in Constitution brought by the upgrade had reached 5 points. In addition to the meat essence decomposed by the biochemical technique, the game avatar also increased his Constitution by 2.96 points after consuming it.

Ning Shi's current physique had reached 30.12, which was already very good.

He had already accumulated 12 potential points and 6 skill points. When the system was offline, the game avatar did not take the initiative to add points. Instead, it was accumulated and handed over to Ning Shi's main consciousness to deal with.

Combining the memories in his mind with the system log, Ning Shi realized that something was wrong, and his expression became a little ugly.

[ Killed a Level 2 mercenary. Obtained 500 EXP. ]

[ Killed a Level 3 mercenary. Obtained 1000 EXP. ]

[ Killed a level 5 mercenary. Obtained 2000 experience points. ]

…

When the game avatar went out hunting, he encountered an ambush from a group of mercenaries. Fortunately, he had the two talents of shapeless phantom and Endurance, and with 30 Constitution points, Ning Shi survived the long-range sneak attack from the mercenaries.

Even though his body had been hit by the helium weapon and was severely injured, the game avatar still calmly made the right choice.

Instead of running away, he moved closer and killed all the mercenaries in the 20-man team.

These people were well-trained and had deliberately set up an ambush here. If Ning Shi's main consciousness was here, he would realize that something was wrong.

However, under the system hack, it only followed some of Ning Shi's instincts.

After killing all the mercenaries, the game avatar returned to the stronghold to recuperate for a while before continuing to hunt.

After that, they were attacked by various mercenary groups many times in a row.

Although Ning Shi had a strong physique and had awakened two talents, he was still covered in injuries under the long-range attacks of the mercenary group's helium weapons.

The first attack on Ning Shi was only a small group, and there were even medium-sized teams with more than a hundred people behind.

There were a few times when the game avatar almost lost its life, but it relied on Phantom's invisible hiding ability to escape.

Under such circumstances, for the next four days, the game avatar did not kill monsters to level up as usual.

He had only killed a few mercenaries and accumulated 230,000 experience points. He was only 30,000 away from Level 19.

When Ning Shi took over the game avatar, the avatar had just returned to the stronghold. A piece of flesh was missing from his left arm. The wound was so deep that the bone could be seen. The flesh and blood tissues near the wound were all charred black.

The clone had already consumed the meat essence and was waiting for the body to heal itself.

Ning Shi endured the pain and numbness. He turned on his smart wristwatch and logged into the AI network, directly entering the Sword Shield City section of the Mercenary Home forum.

Since so many mercenaries wanted to kill him, there might be some clues on the mercenary forum.

Ning Shi soon found out the reason why he was being hunted. It was because a bounty post was pinned to the top of the Sword Shield City section.

Ning Shi clicked on it and browsed through it carefully. There were thousands of comments under this post. Ning Shi checked the content one by one and finally figured out the whole story.

It turned out that everything was the Hilda family's doing.

Seven days ago, the Hilda family went to New Star City to negotiate, wanting to redeem the family's heavy shield mecha at a certain price. However, they were rejected by the City Lord of New Star City, Li Sijia.

This matter caused a great sensation among the nobles and elites of the republic.

Generally speaking, unless there was a deadly feud between them or they were determined to fight to the death, no faction would reject the other faction's request to redeem their mecha.

Allowing mechas to be redeemed was an unspoken rule that everyone tacitly agreed to.

Because mechas were the strategic resources of the entire human race, the use of mechas had to be coordinated with control authority and special meditation techniques. Any mecha could only unleash its full power in the hands of the clan that first produced the mecha.

There was a saying in the Norse Republic that went, “People can die in a fight, but mechas cannot be lost.”

The Norse Republic had been established for more than 170 years. This was the first time that a force had refused to redeem a mecha.

Under the circumstances where the Hilda family had offered a sufficient price, Li Sijia still refused!

This was equivalent to New Star City declaring war on the Hilda family.

The strangest thing was that the higher-ups of the republic did not have anyone or any power to come forward to coordinate.

Under such circumstances, the Hilda family completely shed all pretense of cordiality.

On the one hand, they were engaging in a public debate, making public their conditions for redeeming the mecha. They made it clear to the outside world that it was New Star City who had taken the initiative to reject the Hilda family's request to redeem the mecha, and that it wasn't because the Hilda family had given too few conditions for the exchange.

The Hilda family repeatedly emphasized that behind New Star City's unwillingness to return the mecha, there was a huge ambition hidden, and it was a provocation to the entire noble group.

Because the Hilda family knew that they alone would not be able to contend with New Star City. They had to ally with other nobles.

According to the Hilda family's words, New Star City was a bandit, and behind this bandit was the support of some anti-aristocratic forces.

This kind of speech did have a certain effect. Many nobles protested in the parliament of the Norse Republic, asking the republic to step forward and force New Star City to return the mecha.

It was just that the republic had remained silent and did not take any action.

Apart from that, the Hilda family also wanted to destroy the unity within New Star City.

They made use of their understanding of Old Li to announce the father-daughter relationship between Old Li and the leader of the radioactive people, Li Sijia. They mocked Li Sijia's background and the fact that she had a lowly butcher as her father.

All kinds of ugly and low-class jokes were circulating between the AI network and the unscrupulous media.

In these remarks, they emphasized that Li Sijia was the daughter of a butcher and had a lowly bloodline. She was not suitable to be the leader of the radioactive people.

On the other hand, the Hilda family had also launched their actual revenge.

They mobilized three mechas and two battleships to ambush and kill the radioactive people's exploration teams in the wild. In total, they killed more than 3000 radioactive people and captured more than 2100 prisoners.

At the same time, they also issued a bounty of 100 million origin coins.

Any organization or individual who could capture Ning Shi alive and hand him over to the Hilda family would be rewarded with 100 million origin coins.

The Hilda family knew about the relationship between Ning Shi and Old Li. They wanted to capture Ning Shi to threaten Old Li and then Li Sijia.

Because of this, Ning Shi suffered an undeserved disaster. He was highly sought after by various large mercenary organizations on the spot, fighting to capture him.

The Hilda family released Ning Shi's information: He was a genius who had just turned 18 years old. He had grown up in an orphanage and had no special skills other than learning basic slaughtering techniques.

To the mercenaries, the Hilda family offering such a high reward for Ning Shi, whose ability was so ordinary, was like giving money away.

Therefore, a large number of mercenary teams were dispatched one after another, wanting to capture Ning Shi.

Fortunately, the information these mercenaries had was wrong. In addition, they wanted to capture Ning Shi alive, so Ning Shi could escape every time.

Otherwise, with the powerful firepower of these mercenaries and their experience in fighting radioactive creatures in the wild, it would be difficult for Ning Shi to escape death if they ambushed and killed them in the wild.

Ning Shi turned off his watch and logged out of the AI network.

Fortunately, the Norse Republic was extremely strict in protecting personal privacy.

The highest authority of the AI network was in the central organization of the country. Only when the country was in a special emergency would the AI network be authorized to search for personal privacy information, including one's location.

Ning Shi logged into the AI network at the stronghold. As long as he did not provide authorization, he did not have to worry about being located.

He first called Old Li, but his phone was turned off.

Ning Shi did not suspect that Old Li had given up on him and deliberately turned off his phone. He only guessed that he was dealing with something.

Otherwise, with Old Li's personality, once he knew about the bounty, he would definitely take the initiative to call and inform him.

Facing the Hilda family's bounty, Ning Shi didn't panic. He already had a plan in his heart.

It was time to leave the stronghold and go deeper into the wilderness to train.
