Chapter 272: Infiltrate, Investigate Intelligence!
At this moment, Chen Ye's figure had already arrived in the underground world, passing through the dark cave and arriving at the relatively wide road.
"The underground world seems to be getting lively today!"
Chen Ye looked around and found that the ordinary area of the underground world was obviously more lively than before.
In addition to the fact that the place without light is still so deadly silent, with his keen hearing, he can capture all corners of the underground world, there are rustling sounds, coming from all directions.
These sounds include a lot of footsteps, snoring, and swearing.
Including the nearby electric light stones, there are obviously more than before, and there is a faint blue glow everywhere.
This made Chen Ye feel a little difficult to travel through here.
After all, he needs to use shadows to activate the Lightless Stalker, which is easier to move.
But now...... These troublesome electric lamps obviously limited his space for movement.
"Pick up the pace!"
"Patrol around!"
"There are not many days left until the date of the transaction, and the guys are hurrying to check whether there are accidents in some underground worlds."
"As long as you can successfully clear the mines, according to the meritorious contribution points, you can exchange valuable materials from the hands of that adult."
"At that time...... If you can obtain greater merit, the gift of that lord can give you the power of three or even four turns! ”
In the depths, there was a shouting voice.
Chen Ye frowned and quietly lurked, finding a row of thugs standing there.
It's like you're following some kind of training.
The look of the thug was a little tired, some were still yawning, obviously, they don't know how many times they had heard such a lecture, they were already bored, tired, even if they might be reprimanded by their superiors, but it seemed that no matter whether they did a good job or not, whether they were serious or not, the lecture was essential, and they seemed very depressed in their attitude.
Chen Ye's heart moved, and he realized that this group of thugs probably knew where the meeting place was.
"Alright, from now on, go your separate ways, and come here on time at one o'clock in the afternoon."
The leader in leather armor coldly threw down a sentence and waved his hand impatiently, as if chasing flies, and let the group of subordinates disperse.
"Yes!"
The mob responded lazily, and then immediately dispersed, and the picture was like a plate of scattered sand.
Chen Ye observed the occupations on the heads of this group of thugs, most of them were one-turn occupations such as [Glutton] and [Dark Chef], and the highest was only half a step and two turns.
Obviously, they are not very good at patrolling, and their duties are not particularly strict, a bit like temporary hired members.
Chen Ye's eyes narrowed, realizing that this was probably an opportunity for himself.
When the members dispersed one by one, he observed the halo on the heads of these thugs with the eyes of luck.
Thereinto......
A member of the thug with a blood-colored aura on his head quietly walked into a gloomy cavern.
"Alas, it seems that the donor must have a bloody disaster today, so let me help you."
Chen Ye sighed, and suddenly felt that he was simply a good person!
If the other party is allowed to bear the fate of this blood light with a normal fate trajectory, then I am afraid that they will enter some dark and lightless place, and then quietly be devoured in life.
But if he came to help him through the calamity......
Well, the price is nothing more than a small performance fee, as well as a temporary loss of self-consciousness and a memory......
…………
Half an hour later.
Next to the dark cave rock, the thug member lay on the surface of a smooth stone with his eyes closed, and fell into a deep sleep.
At this moment, Chen Ye used the voice of the soul to affect the consciousness of this thing, and he had already obtained the information he needed to know.
"It turns out that the members of this group of thugs are generally concentrated in the northwest, about two kilometers away from here, in the Thorn Dark Garden."
"It seems to have carved out a black estate from some lightless place, and it turned out to be a residential area!"
"Most of the natives who live in the underworld all year round are said to live in this dark garden of thorns."
"At the same time, it is also where the members of the mob usually live, and if there are certain important meetings, it is in the more upscale mansions, where negotiations are held."
"It seems...... If you want to get more information about the thugs, you'll have to pay a trip to the Dark Garden of Thorns. ”
Thinking of this, Chen Ye's figure dissolved into the dark cave like water, hidden in the vast night......
…………
At this moment, the entrance to the Lightless Lands of the Garden of Thorns Darkness ......
A few electric lampstones embedded in the walls of the cave emitted a faint candle flame that illuminated everything around them.
Two members of the thug in brown leather armor and in dark brown saddles, with a meter-long scimitar tied to their waists, looked solemn and stopped at their sides.
That's when ......
A burst of suona suddenly sounded from the darkness, like resentment, like admiration, like crying.
On the alcove, the electric light stone that emitted a faint blue glow suddenly flickered a few times, and briefly fell into darkness......
The thugs' expressions were visibly frozen for a moment.
Then, a shadow passed by the thug's side for a moment, only remaining for less than a second, and then the figure quickly vanished.
Snort!
Snort!
The lampstone made a grinding sound like a malfunction, and then the light gradually returned, and once again shrouded the mob's face.
But at this time, the thug's expression gradually regained his previous serious look from a brief dazedness.
They touched the back of their heads, feeling as if they had just passed out, and I wonder if it was an illusion.
Moments later...... The thug gradually recovered from its coma and continued to stand in place, stationed there as if nothing had happened.
…………
Chen Ye's figure appeared from a desolate night.
With the light of the pale ghostfire, he saw the flower beds beneath his feet, and the path of the steel thorns......
The road was full of steel thorns and clutter, as if it were a dead place that belonged to a monster's garden.
Chen Ye controlled the ghost fire and gradually disappeared into the distance.
In the distance, the low-slung buildings, illuminated by the ghost fire, gradually outlined their specific forms.
The buildings were made of quaint rocks, and the surface was covered with dull vines and mold.
These molds, as if they have life, will still wriggle darkly.
At this moment, Chen Ye's eyes converged on this building, and under the exploration of the aura of luck, he found the road he was going to.
An inky mist permeated the path of the Garden of Thorns.
As if it were a sign that there was some kind of danger lurking ahead.
In the buildings scattered like human heads, you can still faintly see the torrent of blood, which is spreading in the dark and intensifying.
According to his memory, Chen Ye found the three-story single-family building.
"Is this where the thugs live......
At this moment, you can see that there are scattered figures in this house.
But...... There is nothing particularly strong about luck here, but there is a faint Xuanhuang permeating.
In the land of no light, Chen Ye can lurk in the shadows anytime and anywhere, without being discovered by others.
But in order to prevent that there may be certain characteristics inside, sense their own arrival, and thus sound the alarm......
Therefore, Chen Ye still chose to summon the things of the spirit world and resonate with the vision, so as to obtain the information inside.
He arranged a consciousness, waiting for the dark pattern on the ground to burst into a burst of luster.
Several creatures in the form of rats that were bound through the [Demon Contract] that day suddenly appeared from the gray mist and appeared in front of Chen Ye.
Thereinto...... One of the rats also fused with the ghost fire, turning into a pale flame that was scurrying around.
With the vision of spiritual resonance......
Chen Ye immediately entered the apartment on the third floor......
At that moment, he saw rows of beds lying horizontally, and thugs resting on them, and there was a mess of garbage, waste, and even foul-smelling excrement all over the floor, which was all over the place, dirty.
There was a constant faint snoring sound coming from all corners of the bed.
According to the rules of action of the hired members of the mob, the group of employees who were taking a break in the apartment should be prepared to rotate into night shifts.
At this point in time, they should have taken a good rest and waited for enough rest before returning to work.
But for some reason, there is such a thing as a training camp.
A raging and impatient roar rang out from the door:
"Everybody, get up!"
"Form up in a phalanx and conduct patrol training!"
"You stray fish! Look in the mirror! Look at your current order, what kind of thing is it? ”
"If anything goes wrong that day, according to the contract, you will not only have all your wages confiscated, but you will also have to pay liquidated damages!"
"Get up! Get up! Get up! ”
Chen Ye looked in and found that it was a vicious manager wearing a blood-colored badge.
His heart moved, and he said to himself: "According to the memory of that thug member, the management seems to know the time of the gathering, and generally has the strength of about half a step and three turns. ”
Previously, this part of the members was strong enough to serve as the team leader stationed at the entrance, but now, they have been reduced to middle management.
But even so, there are some professions that should not be underestimated.
Chen Ye's heart moved, and he activated the talent of [Blood Character Research] to confirm the manager in front of him, whose profession is a half-step and three-turn [Thriller Scarecrow].
With the help of the pale flames, Chen Ye could clearly see the thin body under the manager's red staff uniform, as if it was made of straw, the skin color on the surface was completely inconsistent with that of a normal person, and there were a few strange dark blacks in the scorched yellow, and under the direct gaze, Mo Ming gave people a sense of horror.
Chen Ye's heart moved, thinking that he had the identity of a [Demon Executioner].
And the parts on this scarecrow can be said to be the best raw materials for the composition of [Horror Sculpture]!
He looked up and found that the scarecrow's head happened to be bloody again......
Chen Ye couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said compassionately:
"It seems that this benefactor is also a little unlucky, and he needs me to create a catastrophe for him......"
…………
The training camp of the members hired by the thugs is actually not nutritious.
It turned out to be physical training such as running exercises, standing upright, and long jump.
Chen Ye was a little speechless for a moment, this has already descended to the world of the strange era, what is the point of practicing the training of these normal people together?
After thinking about it for a long time, he could only guess that maybe it was the leader's order that his subordinates had to behave, so these poor mercenaries could only spend meaningless time and fall victim to the rules of form.
As for the scarecrow...... As a manager, have you ever seen a manager go to a training camp with his subordinates?
Taking advantage of the time when these thug members ran away, Chen Ye's figure immediately lurked beside the scarecrow.
The scarecrow's heart tightened, and it felt as if there was some danger around him......
A strange suona sound sounded......
…………
Ten minutes later.
The scarecrow opened his eyes again, and suddenly felt as if he had just passed out.
And...... Seems to be missing some of the more critical organs in the body?
But without these organs, can you still move well?
Wait a minute...... What the hell just happened?
The scarecrow suddenly felt as if his mind was a little unconscious, as if he was in a state of confusion, and all kinds of questions were haunting his mind, and he could not find a reasonable explanation, and it was difficult to find the right answer......
Simply, he gave up his brain and thinking, and this chaotic feeling was finally calmed down.
…………
"Got it."
Chen Ye opened his eyes, and in his mind, all kinds of details appeared in his mind about the scarecrow's conversation with the dark shadow.
The time of the transaction will be about seven days later.
At that time, all thug players will receive a text message, and at the moment of the transaction, they will immediately line up in a phalanx and shelter left and right.
The specific time will have to wait for the notification of the Scarlet phone......
For this reason, Chen Ye quietly used the [Demon Contract] to secretly control one of the mercenaries, and as long as a message from the blood-colored mobile phone was sent, he immediately notified himself.
The strength of this group of mercenaries is very weak, and with Chen Ye's strength, it is easy to complete the control and force them to sign the [Demon Contract].
Of course, in order to avoid the equivalence rule being broken, Chen Ye was particularly "generous" in paying a copper coin as a cost of employment.
In this way, everyone will not owe each other......
After doing all this, Chen Ye thought about it, and then controlled the blood-colored mobile phone with his mind and sent a message to Chenxi:
[Chen Ye: "The place of the transaction is at the entrance of Longhua Avenue, on the southwest side, about a kilometer or so of a lightless place, the name is 'Stone Cave Square', and about a thousand mob mercenaries are lined up in a phalanx to escort the trading goods. ”】
[Dawn: "Okay, I'll send an elite unit from the Church of the Sun to support you, and I've also informed the demon detective ......"]
