Chapter 940

"Landlady, to tell you the truth, Roger and I have just received a big deal, and we are about to make a lot of money! If you don't believe me, ask Roger!" Martin put his hands on his hips triumphantly.

"It's indeed a big deal." Roger picked up the check left by the old housekeeper and shook it towards the window.

Although Mrs. Miller is getting old, her eyes are very good. She can see the number on the check at a glance, and she has a smile on her face.

"Wow, what a celebration tonight! What would you like for dinner, two great detectives? How about a creamy stew with two roasted quails?"

"Great, Mrs. Miller, if I can find someone, I hope she's as good a cook as you are!"

"Little fat man, don't blame me for meddling in my business, you are too old to be fooling around in bars all day, wasting money and health on those undecent women, you should be like Roger and find a girl from a good family to date. "

"I would like to have a serious girlfriend, but unfortunately I don't have a chance."

"Last week, I introduced my niece to you on a blind date. You just met and had a meal. Why didn't you contact me after that?"

"Please, your niece is ten years older than me, I can bear it, but her husband just died, and there is an eight-year-old boy! I am a good young man, how can I fall in love with a widow with a mop bottle? ’ complained Martin angrily.

"What's the matter with the widow? She inherited a brewing workshop from her dead ghost's husband. Once you enter the house, you don't have to worry about food or clothing. What a blessing!"

"What's wrong with bringing up a child? Picking up a son for nothing, you won't suffer!"

"Young people are ignorant, and a second-married woman will love her husband more than a little girl!"

"All right, all right, please spare me!" Martin ran away with his head in his arms.

Roger smiled, waved goodbye to the landlady, and followed Martin out the door.

Martin ran as far as the street before turning back and whistling for the hounds.

"It's better to be the 'landlord', not so wordy." Martin stroked the hound's head.

The "landlord" wagged his tail and barked, not knowing whether he was agreeing or opposing the owner's evaluation.

Roger hailed a rental carriage, beckoned Martin and the hound to get into the car, and drove to the church.

"Let's go to the church to find Louise first. If she is interested, we will take her to the mining area to investigate the disappearance."

Roger said to his partner.

"Dark underground mines, which occasionally communicate with ancient tombs, are prone to breed undead creatures. Maybe this is the source of the mysterious disappearance of the miners. Bring Louise, a priest, and don't panic if you encounter undead."

"I guess Miss Quinn would be happy to get involved." Martin laughed dryly, and added weakly, "If she's helping out for love, brother, I don't think you would mind, right? One less person will pay , it’s not a bad thing after all.”

Roger glared at him, and said angrily, "If Louise doesn't take her share, I'll keep it for her, so I won't bother you!"

As soon as the screen changed, the game scene switched to the mining area on the outskirts of Binhai City.

Roger, Louise and Martin, with their hounds, stood side by side at the entrance of the overgrown mine.

At the same time, both Gao Fei and Jiang Feng received a system prompt to turn on the "spiritual mode" to control the male and female protagonists respectively, and the adventure of this chapter officially began.

The mine has been shut down for two months as rain washes away the footprints of the miners who used the tunnels, a set of rusted mine cart tracks that run from the entrance to the depths of the mine.

Jiang Feng remote-controlled the "Dancing Light Technique" to explore the way ahead.

Gao Fei was in the middle to support him.

Martin walked at the end of the line with the hounds, guarding against surprise attacks from behind.

The mine pit is close to the underground river bed, so it is wet and seepage.

Waterlogging must be pumped and drained regularly before construction can be carried out.

After the mine was shut down, waterlogging was not done in time. In the past two months, the accumulated water in the tunnel has been more than one meter deep, making it extremely muddy.

Gao Fei and Jiang Feng can use their professional ability "Climb the Wall" to climb the wall and pass through the waterlogged section.

Martin didn't have the ability to fly over walls, and he didn't want to swim through muddy water like a hound, so standing at the water's edge made it difficult.

Gao Fei is also helping him find a way.

Jiang Feng was also idle, so he threw a "dry water spell" towards the tunnel. The water surface sizzled and a large cloud of steam rose.

Every time the spell is cast, 110 liters of accumulated water are evaporated, which is better than nothing.

Just as she was absent-mindedly casting spells, there was a sudden crash on the water surface, and a white shadow jumped up.

Jiang Feng was startled, and flew onto the wall without thinking!

Looking down again, the strange white shadow had fallen back into the stagnant water and disappeared without a trace.

Goofy looked up at his terrified girlfriend hanging upside down from the tunnel ceiling, and asked her what happened.

"Be careful, there seems to be a monster in the water!" Jiang Feng lowered his voice to warn his companions.

Gao Fei and Martin looked at the water together, but found nothing abnormal except for the spreading ripples.

Martin blessed his shotgun with the "Light Spell" which is brighter than the "Dancing Lights Spell", illuminating the nearby water surface brightly.

The eyes of the three of them looked to the end through the slightly turbid stagnant water. The water was empty, and nothing unusual could be seen.

"Louise, are you sure there are monsters in the water?" Martin murmured in wonder, "It looks normal!"

"I really saw it just now!" Jiang Feng stared at the water with confusion in his eyes, "The monster jumped out of the water, looking like a big transparent water snake, fell back into the water in a blink of an eye, and then disappeared without a trace trace……"

"The big transparent water snake..."

According to Jiang Feng's description, Gao Fei first thought of the water element.

However, only the lower body of the water element is like a python, and the upper body is a vague human shape with a head and arms, which doesn't fit Jiang Feng's description, and it doesn't have the ability to be invisible. Maybe she didn't see it clearly when she took a quick glance?

In any case, be careful sailing for thousands of years.

Gao Fei thought for a while, and took out a leather lantern from the storage space of the astrolabe.

This is a magical device that he obtained from killing the rope demon when he rescued William Gordon, the son of the police chief, in the bear goblin's lair, called the "vision lamp".

Gao Fei opened the lampshade and recited the spell, and the lantern immediately emitted magical light, illuminating the surrounding sixty-foot space.

Within the range of light radiation, all invisibility effects will be dispelled, and invisible creatures will be marked with "demon fire".

Gao Fei shines the lantern on the surface of the water, and sure enough, he finds two translucent snake-shaped figures lurking at the bottom of the water, surrounded by a circle of orange-red fluorescence, which is the characteristic of "demon fire".

Once marked with the "Demon Fire" mark, even if Gao Fei turns off the lantern, the two monsters hiding at the bottom of the water will temporarily lose their invisibility and become particularly conspicuous, and any attack against them will have their own advantages.
