The Void Pathfinder from the Demon Hunter World

"Walter? You killed the cultists by yourself?"

John McCarron, nicknamed "Wolf Hunter", asked loudly.

Marvin nodded: "Yeah."

"Fuck! Why don't you wait for me?"

"You will hold us back."

"I...you..." McCarron grabbed his hair in impotent rage, turned his head and yelled to the inner room: "You two, get out!"

Two women with decent figures, different skin colors and unique hairstyles walked across the sofa with their clothes in their arms, and blew Marvin a kiss before leaving.

Pop, a boot hit the door frame.

"Ah! McCarron, you son of a bitch..." The women screamed and ran away.

"Hey, man." McCarron complained with a sad face, "You can't do this, my reputation is ruined..."

Marvin turned around and closed the door, pulled out a rifle out of thin air and handed it to him.

After all, the two had fought side by side, and with basic trust, Marvin didn't mind him knowing a little of his secrets.

"Wow, you actually found this?" The wolf hunter immediately changed his expression and asked with a smile: "For me?"

Marvin threw the gun directly over.

"Of course, you have a share of the spoils."

McCallum caught it and pulled the bolt with a click. He obviously couldn't let it go and obviously recognized this AK-like rifle.

He frowned and nodded: "Well, I think your decision is correct. I am indeed a bit of a drag. Tell me what happened next?"

Marvin concealed the mask and put the mental attack on the Mothman's head. He roughly described the subsequent events and took out the monster's head to show it.

"Tsk, tsk, there really is a Mothman." The one-eyed dragon looked up and down, picked up the bottle of wine on the coffee table and took a big sip...

...

Before leaving, the one-eyed dragon invited Marvin to have lunch together, but Marvin didn't agree.

The two separated immediately. McCallum went to find Meg, and Marvin walked into an empty alley and took out the Mothman's head.

[Hint: Found a mutant creature of the ancient god system, do you want to submit? 】【Yes】【No】

Select [Yes]

[Hint: Submission successful. ]

No reward?

Just as he was complaining about the learning machine becoming more and more stingy, he received another prompt.

[Hint: It is predicted that the temporary contractor's contribution in this mission will be far less than the return. The contents of the pioneer regulations 00005 and the temporary contract 009 are in conflict. The biological collection mechanism and the task system are now upgraded and adjusted, which is expected to take 3 hours. During this period, the task system cannot be used, and biological remains and living organisms cannot be contained. ]

In just a few dozen words, the amount of information contained is very large.

"Temporary contract", "pioneer", "pioneer regulations", "biological collection mechanism"...

It is obvious that the "temporary contractor" refers to Marvin himself, but when did he sign a temporary contract?

Marvin leaned against the abandoned truck and thought carefully.

Before his death in the previous life, he was in a coma. The memory before the coma was still there, but after the coma, he had no memory at all.

Was it at that time that the "temporary contract" was signed with the learning machine? It is very likely that this is the case.

But why is it a "temporary" contract?

Marvin tried to ask in his mind: "Did I sign a temporary contract when I was dying?"

[Yes. ]

Fuck, the learning machine actually responded, for the first time in history.

"I want to see the contract."

A scroll that seemed real and illusory immediately appeared in front of Marvin.

The scroll unfolded, and it was indeed a contract, with the following content:

After signing the contract, the soul will travel to another world to possess and be reborn.

The signatory has no right to choose the body, and the new body must match the gender of the soul, otherwise it may cause cognitive confusion.

For some reasons, the soul will lose a small amount of vague memory after traveling. (The specific reason cannot be viewed due to insufficient authority)

The signatory can kill creatures stronger than himself and submit the creatures.

The signatory must try his best to complete the assigned tasks to obtain matching rewards.

The above two items are means to improve the signatory himself, and the signatory must do his best to improve himself.

The time limit of this contract is 25 standard years.

At the beginning of the 25th year, the signatory will receive an advanced task.

Only after completing this advanced task can the formal contract be signed.

The advanced task is very difficult, so the signatory needs to improve himself as much as possible in the first 24 years, including physical attributes, combat ability, exploration ability, etc.

The advanced task may be issued in advance according to the actual situation, but it will never be delayed.

If the signatory fails to complete the advanced task and performs mediocrely, he will be forced to execute.

If the signatory fails to complete the advanced task but performs well, the contract period may be extended and he will receive another advanced task with higher difficulty.

If he still fails to complete it the second time, he will be forced to execute.

The above is just an overview of this contract. In fact, the contract contains a total of 372 clauses, and the contract ends with the signatures of both parties.

Marvin's signature is an extremely complicated pattern. Although he can't understand it, he knows that it is his soul mark.

The other signature is a symbol similar to "π".

It took Marvin nearly an hour to read all the contents of the contract.

He didn't notice that two men and one woman walked past the entrance of the alley, all wearing Pip Boys, including a black guy he had met once, Dennis.

Marvin asked in his heart: "Can you tell me the general content of the advanced task?"

[You have insufficient authority. ]

"What are the pioneer regulations?"

[You have insufficient authority.]

"What is a pioneer?"

[You have insufficient authority.]

Well, it seems that the authority he obtained in the temporary contract is quite low.

Marvin gave up asking further. He was now extremely grateful that he had been working hard to improve himself since he was 1 year old. He did not indulge in the prince's identity and wait for death, nor did he lie down and not awaken his bloodline ability.

Otherwise, when he was 25 years old, he would either die in the advanced task or be forced to execute for failing the task.

He had no doubt that the learning machine had the ability to kill him. Judging from the word "execution", the way of death would probably be quite tragic.

He did not regret signing this temporary contract.

There was a chance to live again with memories. Even if he was confused, he would sign this temporary contract ten thousand times.

And so far, the reward mechanism of the learning machine has been fair enough. There must be rewards for every effort.

He even suspected that the learning machine would lose money when recycling biological debris and living organisms. After all, transmitting things across time and space would definitely consume something, perhaps the time and space energy he did not understand, or perhaps something else.

For example, he himself used the blood of the ancients to travel through time, which also required the consumption of blood power.

After being in the wasteland for so long, the ability to travel through the world has not been restored, and the CD is quite long.

Although there are still more than 4 years before the final release of the advanced task, no one knows whether it will be suddenly advanced due to some things.

The only thing he can do now is to improve his attributes and abilities as soon as possible.

I don’t know what the task system will become in 3 hours...

Marvin walked out of the deserted alley and walked towards the shop of the profiteer Colt in deep thought.

In the second transaction, Colt still wanted to play tricks out of habit.

Marvin beat the bodyguard in the store until he couldn’t get up, and then pinched the profiteer’s neck to make this stubborn guy give a fair price.

A backpack of weapons and medicine sold a total of 162 bottle caps. The medicine is really valuable.

He also looked at the samurai sword on the shelf.

The sword is very beautiful, the steel mouth is not bad, and it looks more like a handicraft than a weapon.

The learning machine also displayed weapon information, white quality, attack power of 21~27.

He didn't even bother to ask the price.

Leaving the store, Marvin walked towards the Grand Cross. He had to see how Tal was doing.

...

Ziz, click.

The automatic door closed behind him, and Marvin walked into the Grand Cross.

Meg was still sitting on the high-backed chair in the middle of the round hall, and McAllen stood beside the chair with one eye staring.

They were talking to two men and one woman opposite, all three of whom were wearing Pip-Boys on their left arms.

"Hi! Marvin, it's me, Dennis." The black guy waved enthusiastically and shouted, "Why are you here too?"

Marvin waved his hand as a response, and pointed to the stairs down and said loudly, "There's something else..."

McAllen asked curiously, "Why? You know him too?"

"Of course." Dennis said excitedly, "He saved us at Morgantown Airport..."

Marvin was not interested in listening to others' flattery, he walked straight down the stairs.

Engineer Tal was curled up on the sofa, staring at the ceiling with his eyes blankly, and the comic book was thrown aside.

"Where the hell did you go?" Tal asked when he saw Marvin, "McCallen said you didn't leave, I came to look for you, ouch..."

Marvin pushed him to prevent the frail engineer from tripping and falling over the debris on the ground.

Tal sat back on the sofa.

Marvin asked, "Have you seen it?"

"Hiss..." Tal said while rubbing his ankle while sitting on the sofa, "You bitch. Yes, I have seen it. Do you really have the rest?"

Marvin did not keep the secret and directly stated his purpose: "I have it. But you have to help me modify a car, and the remaining information will be considered as compensation."

"Ah... I knew it. Marvin, you have to understand that modifying a car is very expensive, and it may not be able to run in the wasteland."

"Have you not seen a car that can run?"

"Who the hell has seen it?" Tal complained, "I have long wanted to get a car that can run, but Meg said that without roads, cars are basically useless. I can only dismantle them in the scrap area in my free time."

There are roads in the wasteland, but the road conditions are very bad, with craters, collapses, and cracks everywhere. More places are wilderness, there are no roads at all, and Appalachia is still a mountainous area, so ordinary cars really can't run.

Among the scrapped vehicles that can be seen everywhere in the wasteland, the chassis of freight trucks is very high and the tires are also very large, but the chassis of cars are very low.

It's not surprising that Meg has such a misunderstanding about cars. I'm afraid no one in the wasteland knows what an off-road vehicle looks like or what its capabilities are. Note ①

Marvin took the paper and pen on the workbench and explained while drawing: "Use truck tires, raise the chassis, and use a high-horsepower engine. Can such a car adapt to the wilderness?"

Tal scratched his head and murmured: "That makes sense."

"Don't think too much about it. The car I want doesn't need electronic equipment, clutch, lights, weapons, glass, or even a shell. I just want it to run. Isn't this much simpler?"

Tal nodded repeatedly: "Well, it's much simpler. But it still requires a lot of parts..."

Marvin interrupted his complaints and continued: "I can find cars in pretty good condition. The engine and chassis are in pretty good condition, and the rudder and axle even work... Stop, don't get excited, let me finish. The rest. Let the nearby scavengers find the parts, and I’ll cover the entire cost.”

He slapped the sketch into Tarr's hand.

"But the final finished car belongs to me. Let Meg and the others take a look at it during the test drive. I think many people will want one."

"Of course the car is yours, that's great."

Marvin's words made Tal very excited, but then he said with a grimace: "But you have to be responsible for convincing Boss Meg, otherwise she will hang me in the hall."

"Okay, I'll go talk to her." Marvin nodded in agreement, got up and walked out.

"Wait a minute, I'm going too."

…

"Can't tell how many super mutants there are in the prison?" Meg asked, sitting on a high-backed chair and looking up.

The strong white man opposite shook his head: "We have been monitoring the surrounding area for two days, and we can only judge that it must be above 30. The outer wall of the prison is too high, and if you get too close, you will directly exchange fire. Who knows how many monsters are hidden inside? "The most troublesome thing is that we found self-destructors among the green monsters."

This man was not wearing a blue jumpsuit, but an old military uniform with military-grade composite armor on top.

On his right stood a beautiful Latina with short hair and a pretty figure; on the other side was a black man named Denis with a lively personality.

McCarron frowned and asked, "A self-destructor?"

The Latina beauty took over and said, "You know about mini nuclear bombs, right?"

Cyclops and Meg both nodded in confirmation.

"The super mutants will transform the mini-nuclear bombs into bombs they can use, and the craziest green monsters will hold them and rush towards the enemy, and then..."

"Boom!" Denis made a hand gesture, "Everything within 20 meters will be destroyed."

The white man nodded and continued: "One of our people died in the hands of a self-destructor. He couldn't even resist the power armor. I have to be responsible for the guys, so I didn't dare to get too close."

"That group of super mutants has begun to spread north, and Marvin killed their new stronghold in Grafton." Meg said, "They are indeed a big threat. I agree to join, but the question is, what do you want me to do? Do?"

"Great!" the white man said, waving his fist. "Send 10 good men and we will attack the East District Prison together. Especially the Wolf Hunters must join in."

McCarron glanced at Meg and nodded in recognition: "I'm fine."

"By the way." The Latina beauty asked, "If that Marvin just now is really as powerful as you said, can you let him participate?"

Denis nodded sharply: "Yes, yes, it would be better if we could bring that bounty hunter with us."

"Marvin is not one of ours, but he should be involved." Meg leaned back in her chair and thought for a while. If it is really dangerous, the original reward of 200 bottle caps seems a bit insufficient. She continued: "But you have to ask him himself..."

McCarron suddenly raised his hand and said, "Marvin! Come here, come here..."

Marvin walked over and asked, "What's the matter?"

Tal saw that several people had something to talk about, so he turned around and went down again.

McCarron first introduced the three shelter boys, and then gave an overview of the situation in the Eastern District Prison.

"You decide whether to participate or not." Meg said, "If we can destroy those green-skinned monsters, I will give you an additional reward in addition to 200 bottle caps."

Marvin immediately climbed up the pole.

"I happen to need your help with something. The reward will be discussed later. I'll join in on this."

He turned to the leading Vault boy and said, "Have you ever seen a blue-skinned super mutant?"

The white man with a scar on his face is named Robert Vaughn and is the captain of Vaughn's team.

He and his two teammates looked at each other, and all three shook their heads to express their ignorance.

"I killed one in Grafton. They were dressed completely differently from other mutants, and they were more rational. I also got the information about the East District Prison from the blue monster. The blue super mutant will use a similar Stealth Boy’s equipment has a long stealth time.”

Marvin paused for a moment and then continued: "The lighting in the prison must be very poor. If you encounter a guy like this who can become invisible, you will really have a headache."

He was going to negotiate conditions with Meg later, so he naturally needed to make the task more difficult first. It's a pity that the device on the blue monster's left arm was not left, otherwise it would have been more convincing.

Meg was also an experienced person, so she asked directly while the others were still lowering their heads to think.

"What can you do?"

Marvin turned to Robert Vaughan and asked, "Can you draw a topographic map of the prison?"

"Okay." Vaughn nodded.

"I'll do it." The Latina beauty dragged the table next to her, took out a pen and paper, and started drawing on it.

The tight blue jumpsuit outlines the woman's waist and hip curves beautifully.

Marvin, who had been a straight man for decades, couldn't help but take a second look.

He only knew that the woman's name was Anita Garcia, and he didn't know anything else.

Marvin just knew that he would go through a life and death test in a few years, and he didn't know if it would suddenly be brought forward. Now he has no thoughts of seducing a girl.

John McCarron looked at the woman's plump buttocks and his eyes were shining, and he almost shed his tears.

Meg just rolled her eyes silently, knowing Macallan wasn't messing around. When it comes to doing business, this one-eyed dragon is still very reliable.

A few people started discussing specific tactics in the hall...

From the perspective of latecomers, some problems seem easy to solve, but in fact, it is quite difficult to break through the shackles of existing thinking. The car was invented in 1885, but the off-road vehicle did not appear for the first time until 1941.
