From the very beginning, the Conor Gang has been defined as a vicious gang of Eastern Horse Bandits. After the promulgation of the Eastern Public Security Act, this group of lawless people have been competing with the government. Instead of restraining themselves, they have intensified their robberies.
Massacre.
With this style of conduct, conflict with Cornwall Energy is inevitable.
But no matter what, all conflicts revolve around wealth. If both parties block each other's way, then either you die or I live.
But with wealth right in front of them, the robbers could resist the temptation, round up the entire ship, and trap them to death in this iron cage. What did they want to do?
There were people on the verandah and deck running away into the casino to avoid bullets. In fact, Victor also discovered that the Conor Gang's accuracy was poor, and their shooting was more for forcing people to retreat than for retreating.
Kill.
Unless someone jumps off the boat, they will kill them in the lake without mercy.
"They are preventing us from leaving the ship." Henry hid near the window and stared outside carefully.
Upon hearing this, the people in the Police Bureau immediately fell silent, but Thomas was still shouting.
"What? Does Augusta want to starve us to death on the ship? When Dandelion discovers that the ship has not returned to port after dawn, he will definitely send someone to rescue him, and all those guys will die."
As his words fell, the screams around him increased instead of abating. Some people were lying in front of the burned ashes, so scared that they couldn't stop crying.
"I don't want to starve us to death..." Josh picked up a clean handkerchief from a gambling table and wiped his blood-stained neck clean, "I want us all to be burned to death."
Everyone's attention fell on the Chief Inspector. He was a senior leader in the Inspection Bureau and had much wider knowledge than others.
"This ship has been tampered with. Someone spontaneously combusts every ten minutes. Why do you think this is?" Josh looked at Henry, then at Weeden and the other agents.
Henry's eyes moved and he exclaimed: "Is it a ceremony?"
"Yeah! It's probably just a ceremony." Josh nodded slightly.
"What kind of evil ritual did that bitch Augusta arrange on my ship?" Thomas couldn't believe it. "It's impossible. The people from the Conor Gang can't even get in, let alone get through my ship."
Security check."
Thomas was right. Everyone would be searched when they boarded the ship. Even the gun in Josh's hand was retrieved by his subordinates from security after the accident.
If you want to prepare for a ceremony, you will definitely need some props, which will be discovered when you board the ship.
Besides, how did Augusta seize the right opportunity and know that the Kaleidoscope would leave port tonight?
Is there a mole on board?
"Cornwall Company's itinerary is always exposed to the other party. Mr. Thomas, your consultant died because of the exposure of the itinerary. Although it was probably an attack on you, it was still exposed...
..." Henry reminded Thomas.
Thomas frowned. He also knew that Henry meant that there was a traitor around him, but in the current situation, there was no way to investigate. He had to get rid of the crisis of self-immolation first.
"Since it is a ceremony, it can be destroyed. Augusta should arrange the ceremony somewhere on the ship." Josh explained for everyone, "Our firepower is obviously not as good as those of the Conor Gang, so the only
The only choice is to find a way to destroy this ceremony."
"I must kill that bastard!" Thomas angrily took off his blood-stained shirt and threw it directly into the face of one of his men.
"Hurry up and let's separate on the ship to find a place where the ceremony may be arranged. Everyone, be careful to avoid the bullets outside." Josh began to give instructions, "Be fast. Every time the ceremony is started, people will die. No one knows whether it will happen or not."
Live until the next ten minutes!"
"No need to bother..." Victor coughed and glanced from his cousin who peed his pants, then to Henry, Thomas, Weeden and everyone else, and finally stopped on the face of Chief Inspector Josh, "No
If there is an accident, the ceremony should be arranged in the engine room..."
Hearing this, everyone took a breath of air.
Henry didn't see the blood in the engine room with his own eyes, so he was a little confused by everyone's expressions.
"Yeah...Mr. Victor is right, I see..." Josh also gradually figured it out.
This kind of self-immolation sacrificial ceremony is arranged in a secret location below the deck, and then the secret monster produced by the obsession is used to wander in the engine room to serve as a guard. It is difficult for outsiders to enter and destroy this ceremony.
It's too big.
The Kaleidoscope was stopped by the monster's biological tissue. When people found that they could not bypass the monster and enter the engine room for repairs, they would think of using a lifeboat to escape. So members of the Conor Gang took small boats to surround the entire Kaleidoscope and prevent the ship from being damaged.
people run away.
Anyone who comes down will be beaten to death, and those who have not jumped off the ship will also be forced back to various rooms by bullets to wait for death.
From the very beginning, the purpose of the Conor Gang was not to rob, but to complete this self-immolation ritual!
After receiving Chief Inspector Josh's explanation, everyone suddenly realized.
But Victor had cold eyes, analyzing the underlying logic of the conflict in his mind.
Since it's not a robbery, why do the Cornall gang keep an eye on Thomas?
Is their personal grudge only a conflict of interest in acquiring wealth?
Are the two strange creatures that appeared in the forest early in the morning related to Augusta? Why are they also staring at Victor?
"I really want to see Augusta. I don't know what kind of guy he is." Victor bit his lip and thought, but was suddenly interrupted by the cry of the kid next to him.
The little kid started going crazy again. He bit the waiter's wrist, causing the waiter to howl loudly in pain.
"Kandy! Be quiet!" Thomas scolded his son impatiently, while still blaming the waiter, "Tell him to be quiet! Did you listen to what I said?"
Facing the boss's murderous eyes, the waiter could only hold back the pain and stopped howling. Instead, he touched the little boy's head and kept comforting him.
"What should we do next?" Thomas looked at Josh, "Kill the monster?"
Kill the monster?
Victor sneered.
It's so easy to say.
"Anyway, we have to find a way to get deep inside. There will definitely be a ceremony in a certain cabin."
After speaking, Josh suggested that everyone rush to the engine room again.
Thomas shouted and took everyone who could handle them outside the engine room below the deck.
The large cabin door is still open, and the aisle is bottomless. The real engine room should be in the innermost part, where Victor and the unlucky agent did not reach.
"Get your weapons ready! Load all the bullets. The three of you go down to explore the path, and the two of you take cover!"
Thomas arranged for five of his men to enter the aisle in front of the engine room.
These five people had not experienced the terrible scene before. They had been on the deck guarding the lifeboat, so they did not know what happened.
Thomas just told them there was a monster down there and asked them to kill that thing.
Monster, monster, the human brain actually doesn’t have many specific pictures for the simple word monster.
Unless you've seen it with your own eyes...
So within five minutes, gray mist rose up in the long corridor, and then there were pitiful howls and the sound of footsteps hurriedly escaping...
