Chapter 428: Benny the Crow (2 in 1)
Although Hodge Town is called "Town", its actual area and population are about the same as a city in the Kane plane world, except that there is no city wall. Dust √Fate×Wen? Xue×Net Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi’s status as orphans, they live in the North District’s Windmill Street where the sheriff is located, and this “Akea’s Cauldron” shop is in the southern business district, which I’ve never seen before. Bai Xiaowen and Bai Xiaowen are very normal.
"I have some personal property disputes, but for some reason, I can't personally come forward," Bai Xiaowen said, "so I want to find some...professionals to help me deal with it."
"Professionals? What aspect are you referring to?" Akaia's expression was thought-provoking, but her tone was a little more serious.
Bai Xiaowen added: "It means that the problem can be solved through channels other than the law. When necessary, professionals who don't mind getting a little blood on their hands."
Akaia frowned, and flicked the Plantagenet Empire gold coin in his hand: "Young gentleman, for the sake of the gold coin, I can give you a clue. However, I declare in advance that I am A law-abiding businessman."
Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly: "Of course, I just pretend that I have never been to this store."
Akaia nodded: "Okay. In fact, the professionals you are looking for are in Blackwater Lane—that is, the left turn at the end of our street. They have a unified organization called Crows. Like me Such a decent businessman is never willing to deal with those maggots."
Bai Xiaowen got the information he wanted, nodded his thanks, and then took out another Plantagenet Empire gold coin.
"Second question... Are there any hidden religious places in Hodge Town?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
"Isn't the cathedral in the North District just a place of worship?" Akaia said with a frown. "If you're talking about a hidden church, there is also a small church in the business district, but not many people go to worship, because the residents of the South District Not many have faith."
"What I want to ask is not the church of the Lord of Light," Bai Xiaowen said.
"Then I don't know," Akaia shrugged. "It seems that I can't earn the second gold coin, young man."
Bai Xiaowen nodded thoughtfully, and then left "Akea's Cauldron".
Walking on a remote street, Li Shuyi asked: "I probably understand the purpose of the two questions you just asked. The second question is about voodoo, so I won't talk about it until I get the information. The first This question should be a clue to the main mission, right?"
Bai Xiaowen nodded.
"You doubt,
Behind the scenes is this underground organization named Crow? " Li Shuyi asked.
"It's not certain yet," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "However, the only places where clues can be obtained in cases of a large number of missing persons in this city, except for the sheriff, are the only underground gangs. To say about these underground gangs, for so many I don't believe that there is no information about the disappearance of the population."
As the two walked and talked, Li Shuyi speculated: "I think this crow organization has something to do with the missing persons case. Even if it's not the mastermind behind the scenes, at least it must be a peripheral organization that kidnaps people under the orders of the mastermind behind the scenes."
Bai Xiaowen smiled: "Don't rush to kill him with a stick, go and have a look first."
When they reached the end of the street, they turned left, and the two entered Heishui Lane.
"Hey, where did the two little lambs come from?" A strong man with a scar on his arm stopped the two of them, and after looking carefully at them, he said mockingly, "This is not the place for good babies to come."
Li Shuyi glanced at Bai Xiaowen, and after seeing Bai Xiaowen nodding slightly, she immediately stepped out, reached out and grabbed the arm of the strong man with the scar, pulled it hard, and bent her knees to push it up!
With an egg-breaking muffled sound, the strong man's eyes almost protruded, and his body quickly bent into a prawn. Li Shuyi immediately kicked the big man at the crook of his leg, causing him to kneel heavily on the ground.
Before the scarred man had time to curse, his neck felt cold, and a noble long sword lay across his neck.
"Who are you!" The man with the scar was a little stern, he took a breath, and endured the pain and said, "If you dare to kill me, you don't want to hang out in Hodge Town, our crow will never let any enemy go !"
Bai Xiaowen said lightly: "It's just a maggot in the latrine, do you really think you're great? Listen, we are entrusted by the sheriff, Your Excellency Yahan, to investigate the case of missing persons in Hodge Town. The Crow Organization is our key suspect... …If you don’t want to die, just lead me the way and find your boss.”
The man with the scar was shocked and angry: "Yahan? That damned sheriff has been here long ago, and Boss Benny explained very clearly that the disappearance has nothing to do with us..."
"Stop talking nonsense." Li Shuyi's long sword was slightly forceful, and blood immediately oozed out.
The man with the scar had no choice but to raise his hands: "Okay, don't be like this... I am willing to take you to Boss Benny, can you move the sword away first?"
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi exchanged glances, and Li Shuyi retracted the long sword. The man with the scar shrank his head and led the way, while the two followed closely.
Walking in Blackwater Alley, the two met some members of the Crow Organization. Bai Xiaowen scanned a few of them with insight, and found that their strength was about the same as that of the scarred man. They were all ordinary templates, with a level of about five or six, and they didn't even have a single elite member.
Bai Xiaowen assessed the strength of the crow organization, and concluded that he and Li Shuyi could run rampant in Heishui Lane.
In fact, Bai Xiaowen was relatively confident that the Crow Organization was not involved in the missing persons case, otherwise, he would not have explained his intentions as soon as he opened his mouth.
From the perspective of Sheriff Yahan, when he investigates the missing persons case, he will definitely go to all the gangs in the city, but the end result is that he finds nothing, so he issued a reward order. The man with the scar also said just now that Sheriff Yahan had been here and communicated with Benny, the boss of the crow.
Knowing this, Bai Xiaowen still wants to break into the headquarters of the Crow Organization, in fact, to subdue this underground organization and take it back for his own use! Otherwise, as an awakened person who cuts in, his eyes will be darkened, so where can he start the investigation.
In the depths of Blackwater Lane, in an underground casino, Bai Xiaowen met Benny, the boss of the Crow Organization.
Benny was a slender man with dark eyes and thin cheeks, hidden under a black cloak, evoking an unreasonable reminiscence of a vulture prowling for food.
Bai Xiaowen immediately threw out his insight, prompting to deduct 25 power points.
【Benny (Elite Level 8)】
[Race: Humanoid/Human Race]
[Occupation: Night Exile]
[Attributes: strength 35, agility 49, constitution 32, spirit 20]
[Skill 1: Shelter of the Night: Activate the stealth skill to make it difficult for enemies to find. Passive effect, stealth priority +1 at night. 】
[Skill 2: Combo: Successfully hitting the enemy multiple times in a row will cause additional physical damage. The more combos, the higher the extra damage. 】
[Skill 3: Head start: The first attack without being discovered by the enemy will temporarily paralyze the enemy. 】
[Skill 4: Bandit Leader: Passive, HP increased by an additional 150 points. 】
After seeing the shared information, Li Shuyi quietly said in the team channel: "Ah, it's actually level eight."
With Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi's level 5 awakener, it is a bit surprising that among the matching spirit world characters, there are level 8 characters. According to the usual rules, the level of matching spirit world characters will be one to one higher than the awakener level. two levels.
But there are exceptions, that is, if you have a "positioning" item and match it to a specific spirit world plane, there may be "abnormal" levels of spirit world characters—for example, it is three levels higher, or lower than the awakened one.
Of course, the rules of the spirit world will also make a corresponding balance. Where is the balance? It lies in the entry point of the awakened ones.
For example, the Aaron plane world where Bai Xiaowen performed the job transfer test is a generally high-level plane. At that time, Bai Xiaowen had not yet changed jobs. Therefore, according to the rules of the spirit world, Bai Xiaowen’s cut-in location is the northern region, which is sparsely populated and desolate. The characters in the spirit world that Bai Xiaowen needs to deal with are all below level 3. Of course, his death attracted the leader of level 7, Goliath, so he is not subject to the rules of the spirit world. preferential treatment.
The level 8 elite in front of me, Benny, the boss of the crow organization, is about as strong as a leader of level five or six. He is at a disadvantage in terms of priority and skills, but because he has passed the hurdle of level 7, all attributes are relatively high. 150 health bonus.
But this is not a threat to Bai Xiaowen.
After listening to the grievances and cries of the man with the scar, Benny nodded slightly, and looked at Bai Xiaowen with his sinister eyes.
"You were really sent by the sheriff? I don't believe it."
Bai Xiaowen said flatly: "It doesn't matter whether it's true or not. The point is, do you want to die or live?"
Bai Xiaowen's straightforward threats angered several elite members of the crow organization.
"Arrogant little guy, go back and drink milk!"
A strong man with a bald head swooped over, with black iron gauntlets on his fists, slamming Bai Xiaowen horizontally.
Li Shuyi drew out her two swords, crossed them, blocked the punch first, and then quickly slashed back, making three chi chi chi chisels, and the three swords accurately hit the bald man's throat.
Furious with blood and water, the bald man held his throat and trachea in disbelief, made a gurgling sound, sat down slowly, and finally died on the spot!
This bald man is a powerful middle-level elite. However, Li Shuyi's strength value at this time has reached 27 points, which is more than enough to block his blow without losing balance. However, after Li Shuyi blocked the opponent's attack, the counterattack speed that broke out was absolutely unmatched by the bald and strong man. Three swords, one of which triggered a critical strike, instantly killing him on the spot.
Seeing the bald man fell to the ground and died, the other members of the crow organization were even more frightened and angry, but there was a trace of fear in their eyes.
Benny's eyes were cold, and his hands under the black cloak quietly touched the dagger.
Suddenly, Bai Xiaowen coughed, and with a flash of white light, a bloated and tall voodoo-stitched fat boy appeared in front of him, accompanied by four little boys with skeleton swords and shields.
Fatty's ferocious face made many people terrified, and someone exclaimed: "This is voodoo..."
Benny stared at the past with stern eyes, and the man fell silent for a moment. Bai Xiaowen knew it in his heart, squinted his eyes and said, "It seems that Your Excellency is not willing to cooperate."
Shua!
Fat Boy made a move, hooked the iron chain, tightly wrapped around the person who spoke just now, and dragged him over.
Ordinary people might not be able to find out the person who exclaimed from so many members of the crow organization, but Bai Xiaowen's insight and memory are extremely powerful, and he found out the location of the other party in an instant, and the mind link ordered Fat Boy to do it.
Bai Xiaowen's act of acting like no one else irritated Benny even more, and he let out a roar in his throat: "Give it to me..."
However, when all the members of the crow organization raised their knives to chop Bai Xiaowen up, with Bai Xiaowen at the center, an awe-inspiring coercion spread out! Except for a few elite members, most of the members of the crow organization were stunned on the spot and sat down on the ground.
And the elite of the crow organization who could still stand, as well as Benny, the boss, fell into a state of fear even though they were not stunned.
Bai Xiaowen grabbed the collar of the unlucky guy who was hooked by the fat boy: "Hey, now you answer the question..."
After the man was woken up, he had a frightened face: "I, I don't know anything."
"Tell me about the voodoo sect you just mentioned," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile. "What do you think this servant of mine has to do with voodoo sect, huh? Stop pretending to be crazy, or I'll kill you."
The man said with a mournful face: "I heard from Boss Benny that the voodoo religion has a huge transformed corpse, which is very powerful in combat and can fight ten against one... This monster is very similar, so I... "He regretted greatly in his heart, he shouldn't have been quick-talking for a while.
When Bai Xiaowen pressed the unlucky guy, Benny and his subordinates finally woke up from the state of fear/dizziness. Seeing the unpredictable Bai Xiaowen, these people couldn't help but feel fear in their hearts, but they didn't dare to go forward.
Bai Xiaowen asked a few more questions, and after confirming that the captured hapless guy no longer had any valuable information in his mouth, he threw him aside, patted the non-existent dust on his hands, and said to Benny:
"It seems that Mr. Benny already knows the gap between you and me, and also understands that I can end your life at any time."
Benny's expression changed several times, and finally he said in a harsh voice, "Yes."
"I'm very glad that we have reached a consensus, then I will put forward my conditions," Bai Xiaowen said, "If you can cooperate, you can live, and even get a considerable amount of money. If you don't cooperate... You should know the consequences."
"... I don't know what your request is? We will try our best to do it."
Benny doesn't believe in the money that Bai Xiaowen said at all. His only thought now is that he can save his life.
