Martin hit it with the last hammer, smashing the black pudding monster to pieces and falling to the ground motionless.
Gao Fei wiped his sweat and gasped violently.
His profession, "Spell Thief", has low strength and physical attributes, and is really not suitable for this hard-hitting style of fighting with a sledgehammer. If there are more black pudding monsters entrenched deep in the mine, it will be a bit overwhelming.
At this time, there was a rustling sound behind him.
Jiang Feng climbed down the shaft, carrying a man in black who she had knocked unconscious and tied up.
Throwing the prisoner on the ground casually, Jiang Feng said to Gao Fei and Martin: "I climbed up the shaft and found this guy squatting next to a big stone, looking furtively down the well mouth, so he went around behind him and used the handle of his gun as a weapon.
Sap, hit him hard on the back of the head, knocked him unconscious and took him down for interrogation."
"Thank you for your hard work, Louise." Gao Fei turned around and smiled at Martin: "Brother, didn't you just say you had an urgent need to pee? Come and pee, wake this guy up, and ask him who ordered him."
"You are such a nasty person!" Martin said with contempt on his face.
Jiang Feng also suppressed his smile and rolled his eyes at Gao Fei, and used the "Water Making Technique" to make artificial rainfall.
The unconscious man was showered with cold water and shuddered. When he opened his eyes, he realized that he was tied up and couldn't help but scream.
"Hey buddy, you scream like a little pussy!"
Martin clenched his fists loudly and approached the man with a ferocious smile. Before he could use the "Great Memory Recovery Technique", he frightened the man out of his wits and begged for mercy.
After some interrogation, Gao Fei learned that this guy was a member of the Blood Anchor Gang. He followed the second boss "Hawkeye" Hawke and the third boss "Blackhand" Cody. They lurked in the mine at noon, waiting for Gao Fei and his party to come forward.
Come to die.
Including him, the Blood Anchor Gang dispatched a total of eight people.
Except for Hawke and Cody, the rest are just minions.
Ever since the trio of Goofy accepted the commission from Police Chief James Gordon and successfully rescued William Gordon, who was kidnapped by the Blood Anchor Gang, they have forged a relationship with the largest organized crime group in Coastal City.
It’s not surprising that the Blood Anchor Gang wants to kill the three of them. What really makes Gao Fei feel uneasy is that this morning, he and Martin received a commission from the Lucas family’s housekeeper to investigate the mine. Only one morning later, the news
The leak reached the ears of the Blood Anchor Gang’s top brass very quickly.
Apart from him, Jiang Feng, and Martin, only the landlady Mrs. Miller knew about this matter. However, Mrs. Miller's life circle had no intersection with the Blood Anchor Gang. It was unlikely that the news would leak from her, unless she had been secretly plotted by the Blood Anchor Gang.
Bought.
Considering the landlady's greedy character, this possibility is not impossible.
In addition, there is another way to leak secrets through the Lucas family.
There are many servants in a millionaire's home, so it is normal for there to be one or two undercover agents installed by the Blood Anchor Gang. The possibility of leaking secrets through this channel is obviously greater.
The top priority is not to track down the leaker, but how to deal with the Blood Anchor Gang gangsters lurking in the dark.
Gao Fei thought for a moment and asked the prisoner: "Are the monsters in the mine arranged by the Blood Anchor Gang?"
"No... not entirely. There are real monsters in the mines, and miners are really being killed." The prisoner replied with a grimace.
The Blood Anchor Gang took advantage of this occasion to ambush Gao Fei and others, and he had to take certain risks. If it weren't for the order from above, he would not be willing to participate in this operation.
Gao Fei, Jiang Feng and Martin took turns asking a few more questions.
The prisoners' status in the gang was not high, and they did not know the inside story, so they could not give them much valuable information.
"Guys, it's become obvious that the Blood Anchor Gang has set up a trap, just waiting for us to step on it!" Martin couldn't hide his nervousness in his eyes. "The smartest way is to retreat the same way and let these gangsters wait for nothing.
!”
Gao Fei and Jiang Feng looked at each other and remained silent.
Don't they know that this is the safest course of action, but they are unable to retreat.
The two of them had just received a main mission prompt from the system, requiring them to continue exploring the mine, complete the employer's commission, and at the same time crush the Blood Anchor Gang's conspiracy.
Damn this...how to fix it?
With the system tasks being forced down, the two of them, as players, could only bite the bullet and rush forward, but how to explain it to Martin, an NPC who didn't know the inside story?
"How about this? Rogge and I will go in first to explore the truth, and you will stay outside with the hounds to meet us," Jiang Feng said to Martin.
"Miss Quinn, you must be crazy!" Martin's eyes widened in shock, "You know that the gang is setting up an ambush deep in the mine, why do you want to die?"
"You can't say that, we still have a chance of winning." Jiang Feng pretended to be calm.
Martin shook his head, as if he felt that this young lady was unreasonable. He turned around and asked Gao Fei: "Brother, please say something! Why don't you persuade Miss Quinn to give up this impulsive idea?"
Gao Fei rubbed his nose and smiled bitterly: "You can escape for a while, but you can't escape forever. If you give up here today, it will only attract more despicable plots from the Blood Anchor Gang. You have to spend every day in fear. In comparison,
The current situation is not too bad, at least we have some understanding of the enemy's plan."
"In other words, do you agree with Miss Quinn and take the risk and move on?" Martin asked with an unhappy face.
Gao Fei nodded and continued: "The prisoner will lead the way. Louise and I will quietly go to the place where the Blood Anchor Gang is lurking and look for an opportunity to stage a counter-ambush. Just wait here."
"No, no, no!" Martin interrupted, "Brother, of course I want to go with you!"
Gao Fei was not surprised by Martin's change of attitude. He patted him hard on the shoulder and said gratefully: "Thanks, brother!"
Martin shook off his hand and said angrily: "Thank you! Let me make it clear in advance. I am going to die with you, not out of some bullshit brotherhood. I am not that kind of loyal!"
"Then why are you still following us?" Jiang Feng asked inexplicably.
"You left me in such a dark place, and I was very panicked. What if I was attacked by someone?" Martin turned his face to the side and said angrily: "It's better to risk it than to be alone in fear.
, I will go to death with you, at least I will have someone to keep me company, so I won’t be too lonely.”
After hearing his covert explanation, Gao Fei and Jiang Feng looked at each other, both moved and funny.
Determined to face the difficulties, the three of them continued on the road, asking the captured gang members to lead the way to the ambush location.
Passing by the warehouse in the lower mining area on the way, Goofy picked the lock and went in for a walk around. He found a pickaxe and a wooden-handled hammer, and distributed them to his companions as backup weapons-compared to a simple stone hammer, they were more suitable for dealing with the Black Pudding Monster.
