"It's here!"

Someone snorted softly, and Ji Xun looked out through the window.

All around is an eerie, dark wilderness, and the headlights illuminate some of the low mounds that look like burial mounds ahead. There were some barren trees on the mound, strange birds on the branches that looked like crows or something, and a faint mist in the air.

Nothing special, this is the weird desertion that the wilderness should have.

Ji Xun looked at the place where the lights converged, there was an explosion in front of the tracks, and a steam train with more than ten cars was overturning to the ground.

It seems that someone blew up the railway ahead, and then the train derailed and overturned.

Looting supply trains is not uncommon in the City of Innocence.

In particular, plundering the materials of the upper nobles and lords, although the risk is large, the benefits are also large.

The big gangs in the city like to do it.

Originally, there had been similar incidents before, which was considered a welfare event for the corpse collectors.

But as soon as they arrived at the scene this time, everyone noticed that something was wrong.

......

After getting out of the car, Ji Xun only glanced at the scene, and immediately found something abnormal in his eyes.

The battle is over.

More than fifty corpses were scattered on the ground, but the signs of the battle did not look intense.

It stands to reason that since the marauders blew up the railroad tracks, they were naturally prepared to rob, why did so many people die?

And although the supplies on the train were scattered near the tracks, they were not looted.

Saying it's a robbery looks more like a one-sided massacre.

The so-called "predators" are all a bunch of rookies who do not measure themselves?

Apparently not so.

Ji Xun looked at several corpses in front of him, the fatal wound was a smooth cut wound on the chest, and even the mechanical exoskeleton was cut off.

This is a wound caused by a wide range of wind-based cards.

He immediately had a judgment in his heart: "At least the second-order wind spell card master made a move." ”

Looking at the traces of battle in the distance, there are obviously traces of the explosion of fire element and thunder element cards.

Obviously, there is more than one master.

Unbeknownst to the train, the unlucky Marauders blew up the tracks in an attempt to rob them, and were killed back.

Ji Xun immediately thought of the key.

How can there be more than one high-level spell card master on a freight train?

Could it be that there is something special about this train?

didn't wait for Ji Xun to think about it, and suddenly the roar of the steam boiler came from afar.

When I looked closely, another convoy appeared on the north side of the tracks.

The speed of the convoy was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, it was already clear that it was an elite army.

On the body is the "crown and double-headed falcon family emblem" of the governor Cao family.

Ji Xun's pupils rolled as soon as he saw it, and he already realized that this was probably not an ordinary robbery.

Seeing this convoy, the captain Dong Jiu on the side muttered to himself: "It's strange, why are the elite guards of the Governor's Palace, the Frost Knight Legion, here?" ”

......

Because the corpse collector got the news in time, and the car drove fast, they rushed to the scene almost immediately.

Even one step ahead of the elite legions of the Doge's Palace.

The corpse collectors looked at the dozen or so military armored convoys armed to the teeth galloping towards them, and their faces were puzzled.

As soon as the armored car approached the derailment site, before it could stop, a group of heavily armored soldiers dressed in white armor rushed out of the car.

Nearly 100 people stood guard around the smashed carriage.

Imposing, well-trained, disciplined...

This is a regular legion that is completely different from the hunters in Innocence City.

Ji Xun took a look at it more, and then looked at the white fine armor on those guys, and thought that he had heard of it.

This is the famous "Frost Knight".

The Governor Cao family has a complete advanced route of [6 of Spades - Punishment Iron Guard] in an orderly manner, and these heavily armored warriors are the private guards trained by the Cao family in this sequence, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong.

It is said that the legion fights with one enemy and ten.

When I inquired about the news before, I heard about it.

Normally, such a train robbery can be handled by a few law enforcement officers, but now there is an integrated escort corps?

Seeing this, the doubts in Ji Xun's eyes turned into relief, as if he had thought of something, and muttered to himself in his heart: "It seems that I have bumped into something that some big people can't see." Tsk, it's getting more and more interesting..."

.......

Minister Gong Xu is very old, and he is also very popular in the Golden Oak Security Company.

As soon as he came, several field agents from the headquarters who arrived first greeted one after another: "Brother Gong, you guy came very quickly." We've just arrived, and you're here. ”

Gong Xu smiled, signaled to the convoy of the Governor's Mansion in the distance, and asked casually: "Old Ma, what's the situation over there?" ”

With the people of the Governor's Palace intervening, the arrival of their Golden Oak people seemed redundant.

But the relationship between the company and Shangcheng is very ambiguous, not hostile, at most neutral, and there is no conflict.

The leading field agent spread his hands and said, "I don't know. But it looks like there's some big guy in the upper town on the train. ”

"Oh."

Hearing this, Gong Xu also shrugged his shoulders, not too curious.

The secrets of the high-ranking nobles are not something that people of their level can inquire about, and they are not interested.

......

Due to the nature of their profession, corpse collectors often come into contact with some special murder scenes.

It's like the last Tailor Street cellar incident.

But this time, it's clearly different.

Ji Xun smelled a hint of conspiracy.

But instead of feeling bad, his scalp felt slightly numb.

That feeling of familiarity... It's back again.

Life always needs a little bit of excitement.

Ji Xun stared at the people of the Governor's Mansion over there.

Not only him, but everyone was curious about what was going on.

It didn't take long for the puzzle to be revealed.

As soon as the Guards of the Doge's Palace arrived, dozens of complex magical defense enchantments suddenly lit up in an overturned carriage.

Only then did the crowd realize that it was a special carriage disguised as a freight car.

The heavily armored doors of the carriage opened, and several well-armed frost knights walked out surrounded by a middle-aged man with a big beard and a big belly.

As soon as these eight-character beards came out, the frost knights and magistrates who had rushed to reinforce them all knelt on the ground and saluted respectfully: "Your Excellency! ”

The voice echoed in the empty dark cemetery, and it was particularly harsh.

......

Governor?

When Ji Xun saw this, he realized that the governor Cao Sihai himself was on the train!

No wonder the elite convoy of the Doge's Palace is here.

But what is the governor of the innocent city, the federal councilor, secretly hiding in the freight train?

And the marauders blew up exactly the train where the Governor was hiding?

For a moment, his eyes lit up: "It's getting more and more interesting now..."

Ji Xun was still guessing which big man of the Cao family would be in the carriage just now, but he didn't think it was the most important one.

In the current situation, it doesn't feel like something is right.

Something happened to the Cao family, he likes to hear it!

The fourth young man of the Cao family chased and killed him all over the city.

If his father hangs up now...

Tsk, I'm afraid the city of innocence is going to be lively.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun didn't rush to the front excitedly like other corpse collectors to rein in the corpses that were close to the train, but quietly opened up some distance.

His instincts told him that something was coming.

Sure enough.

Almost as soon as the Governor appeared, a loud cheer could be heard in the distance.

"Everyone be careful, the alien space has descended!"

This is the eastern suburbs of the wilderness, and the lights only illuminate a small corner in the darkness, and before the words fell, the black fog outside the lights in everyone's field of vision has already hit like a tide.

The speed was so fast that everyone didn't even have a chance to flee by car.

Before anyone could think about it, the fog had drowned out all the lights.

The surroundings had changed and it had become pitch black.

The fog came quickly and dissipated instantly.

Large-scale coverage is unavoidable.

However, after the vision was clear, Ji Xun looked at the changing environment around him and tilted his head: "I was really involved." ”

The scene of the robbery at the railway cemetery just now is now in a huge underground labyrinth.

This is the alien space in the mouth of the previous captain Dong Jiu - [Cemetery Labyrinth].

......

There is no light source, visibility is very low, and some blurry outlines can barely be seen.

All around are at least 100 meters high black pitch top rock walls, and the passages in the labyrinth are more than 30 meters, so you can imagine the scale of this labyrinth.

Ji Xun's eyebrows showed a thought.

Obviously.

The corpse collectors were swept away by an attack on the Governor.

Accidentally?

Probably.

But it doesn't have to be.

When the demon gives a gift, he actually marks the price a long time ago.

【Imprint· JOKER] is so powerful that the aura of the "Doom Gambler" will not disappoint.

This path was chosen by himself.

Ji Xun is calm.

What's more, the familiar scalp tingling feeling is getting stronger and stronger.

It seemed like only then could he feel something... The soul is no longer as silent as ashes.

"You've entered the Maze of the Necropolis."

"The labyrinth mortality rate: 29.4%"

"Cataclysmic Level Assessed: D"

"Space Exploration Progress: 47.1%"

"Keyword: Puzzle solving"

"Mission: You need to find the right way out of the maze of skeleton monsters."

"Clue: Three thousand years ago, 300,000 laborers were killed, and the resentment formed a labyrinth that no living beings could leave..."

Ji Xun watched Enlightenment appear, and his expression also showed a hint of thought.

After all, this is a primary space, and the known information is that except for the trapped people, this maze is not very difficult.

Although Ji Xun didn't have the information of the Hunter Union's maze move, he was not in a hurry at all.

D-level difficulty, others can get out, there is no reason why you can't get out.

Instead, he thought of something else: "This is to use the maze to trap that Governor Cao and then kill him?" ”

The labyrinth is full of low-level skeleton monsters, which theoretically pose no threat to the Frost Knights of the Legion.

Ji Xun quickly calculated in his heart, and deduced the idea of the behind-the-scenes layout, but also complained: "It's not right... Hunting the governor for such a big layout, how can you have to make a moth. What's more, waiting for the Frost Knight Legion to come before starting it, I think I want to solve it together. A labyrinth is not enough. ”

In the city of innocence, no matter who assassinated him, I am afraid that there was no such thing as the assassination of the governor.

And the unveiling of a grand show usually requires a gorgeous and shocking opening.

The current start is far from worthy of such a big drama.

I don't know if it's a crow's mouth from him, or the person who laid out the scene didn't disappoint.

At this time, enlightenment appeared for the second time.

"Hidden Plot Trigger: The intruder touches the sleeping mechanism of the labyrinth, the door stone falls, and the exit of the labyrinth is locked. The immortal 'Secret Keepers' have awakened, and they will roam the labyrinths and kill all living humans."

The cataclysm level has changed to "Unknown" again.

"Sure enough, it came."

Seeing this, Ji Xun's eyes shone slightly.

Only then did he feel that now was the right way to open this grand assassination.
