Chapter Seventy-Two: Whack-a-Mole

Li Peng followed the guards to a barren mountain.

I saw some houses at the bottom of this barren mountain, and a tower that was not tall on the mountain.

The guard pointed to the tower high up and said, "The mayor is up there, you can see it as soon as you go." After saying that, he walked back again.

After Li Peng drove up in the carriage, he saw a very plainly dressed mayor under the tower.

"Hello Mayor Mare, did you send this out?" After Li Peng finished speaking, he took out the letter found on the corpse.

The mayor took it and looked at it, and immediately looked up at Li Peng, "Where did you find it?"

Li Peng didn't say much, just said that it was found on a corpse in a remote place.

Mayor Marew sighed, "Alas! It didn't work out this time, so it looks like we can't find their purpose."

"Mayor Town, I also read this letter, are they talking about the people who occupied Yuexi Town? I don't know what you're looking for?"

"We used to live in Yuexi Town, but suddenly a group of murderous people came one day, killing people when they saw them, we couldn't resist and ran to this place, but after they occupied Yuexi Town, they began to continue to develop, digging a very large mine, I sent people to investigate many times, but they were all found and killed." After the mayor finished speaking, he looked at Li Peng and said, "I wonder if you can help me complete this task?"

――System prompt: Have you accepted the commission of the mission mayor?

Didn't Li Peng come here to do a task, and since it was so easy to receive it, why didn't he take it?

"Accept"

-- System Prompt: You have accepted the mission of the Mayor of the Mayor.

Li Peng was about to leave after taking over the task, when the mayor said another word.

"I heard you helped with some gophers before, thank you so much. However, the problem of this gopher is still very strict, and I hope they are more stable on the northwest side."

Li Peng listened to this sentence in a fog, and he didn't know what the purpose of his words was. But when he spoke to the mayor, he would say, "Did you find it?" This sentence. After asking to no avail, Li Peng left with doubts.

What did he mean by that? Northwest screw?"

No, let's go over there first.

Li Peng was worried that he would forget about this matter in the future, so he immediately headed northwest, after all, this was just a verbal message, unlike a mission that could be watched at any time.

Seeing the correct direction, Li Peng soon came to the northwest and saw that the middle of the screw was deserted, even the houses used in the past had become dilapidated, and the original farmland had been made full of holes by gophers, and the number of them was innumerable.

Next to this farmland is an abandoned mine, the entrance of which has collapsed, blocking the way in and out, and scattered around it are stones that should have been transported from the mine before.

"This is the place where the gopher lives." Looking at the farmland full of potholes, Li Peng said.

After looking around, Li Peng beckoned the two women sitting in the car to get out of the car, ready to inspect, since the mayor can point the finger at this place, then there will definitely be clues here.

"Let's go, let's take a look around here and see what we find." Li Peng said to the two daughters.

Corinna came to Tina's side after Li Peng finished speaking, and if there was any danger to protect her.

The three of them had just gotten out of the carriage and had not gone far when an adult gopher suddenly emerged from a hole, and because it was a long-range unit, it took the lead in attacking Li Peng.

As soon as it poked its head out, it spit out a black thing from its mouth, and the speed was very fast, and it directly hit Li Peng, who was walking in front.

Li Peng saw that he was being attacked, and he couldn't just stand and be beaten, so he immediately aimed his slingshot at it. But when he was about to attack, suddenly the gopher got into it again, which directly caused Li Peng to lose his target.

Just as Li Peng dropped his weapon because of the disappearance of his target, another adult gopher came out of other pits and began to attack Li Peng.

And after attacking it, he got into it again.

Seeing that Li Peng was injured, Tina raised her staff and performed a healing technique.

- System Prompt: Your hero Tina has performed a healing spell on you, and her health is +15.

- System Prompt: The defense aura used by your hero Tina, your defense is increased by 20.

"Nima, no wonder the mayor knows that there is a gopher and he doesn't care, it turns out that he can't take care of it, there are so many potholes in this tm, who knows where the gopher came out."

Li Peng did not have a good situation, so he immediately took his two daughters out of this dangerous zone.

But he walked out, but he didn't give up, since the gopher can be so defensive, then there must be content in it. Didn't you stop my brother, my brother wanted to go in.

After making up his mind, Li Peng began to think about how to avoid the attack of the gopher, this is just a gopher attacking him, if he enters the inside and suddenly rushes out a group of gophers, then he is not looking for death, or go up the pole to find the dead.

Just when he didn't know what to do, Li Peng noticed the abandoned mine.

He wasn't trying to reopen the hole, he was just trying to get the rocks on the ground. Although these gophers are very large, they are rats after all, and if the hole is sealed, they will not be able to get out, and those stones can completely fulfill Li Peng's idea.

After having this doctrine, the corners of Li Peng's mouth curled up and asked the two women to stand still, and then Li Peng ran to the mine, picked up a stone, flew up, aimed it at a pothole in the air and threw it down.

The falling stone fell impartially and directly into the pit when. [,! ], blocked the exit.

"Haha, whack-a-mole!"

Seeing that this was feasible, Li Peng immediately laughed, what he is doing now is the same as the whack-a-mole game in the game hall in reality, the only difference is that the whack-a-mole in the game is that it drills out and you are fighting, while Li Peng is now playing before it comes out.

Although it was an individual job to move stones, Li Peng gritted his teeth and persevered, and it took more than an hour to block the hole, leaving only one of them, so that they could all come out of this one hole, so that they could be completely annihilated.

Li Peng gasped and fell to the ground, and after resting for a while, he took the lead and walked over.

Things were really as Li Peng thought, those plugged holes did not come out of the gopher, so the three of them went smoothly to the originally dangerous area.

When it came to the last unblocked pothole, Li Peng had already prepared his weapon, the slingshot in his hand had been opened, and the gopher came out of it, and Corinna was also arranged by Li Peng to the front, so that the gopher could attack as soon as it came up.

But this time Li Peng miscalculated, at this time Corinna had already walked to the edge of the pit, and she didn't see the gopher come out of it, and after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement at all.

Li Peng was actually quite worried about getting this result, because if a gopher came out, it would be normal, but if it didn't come out, it would definitely not be normal.

After Li Peng also slowly approached, he took out a small pebble and threw it in, and the results showed that this was a normal pothole, and the inside was indeed the same as the bottom, because the hole could make the sound of stones colliding.

Since there were no gophers coming out of this hole, Li Peng plugged this one as well.

But just as Li Peng continued to walk forward after blocking it, a loud noise suddenly came from below, and the ground began to tremble.

"Boom~!"

I saw a crater in front of them that was several times larger than before.
