Chapter 53 Resurrection from the Dead
After dealing with a group of attackers, Bochi, Seta and Senqi used the old method of stacking poison to detonate damage to kill the remaining lava lizard.
In this way, they were able to hunt two lava giant lizards at once and get a bumper harvest.
However, right now everyone’s focus is no longer on this harvest.
Senqi rushed to Seta immediately and said anxiously, "Brother, how are you?!"
Previously, she saw with her own eyes that Seta was stabbed through the heart with a knife, and his hunting clothes were almost soaked with blood.
The hole in the hunting suit is still there, but when she ran her fingers across the skin underneath, she could not find any wound.
Seta was also a little strange and scratched his head. As the person involved, no one knew better than him how deadly that knife was.
Setta thought that he was certain to die, and then everything went dark.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw the oval-faced girl bullying his sister. He couldn't help but feel angry. He immediately created a sand puppet and joined the battle.
He didn't even have time to think about his resurrection. It wasn't until his tense mind relaxed that he realized how incredible this thing was.
Speaking of incredible, a figure immediately appeared in Seta's mind.
"Deputy Captain, you saved me!"
"No, you are lucky enough. I can't guarantee that I can save you again if I do it again."
Ma Lu told the truth, he did not expect that the purple blessing [Resurrection from the Dead] he had purchased before would actually come in handy.
And Seta's luck is indeed good, with a 33% chance of being hit by him. In contrast, some people shot four arrows in a row before one of them triggered [Headshot], which can be said to be very embarrassing.
"It was you who saved me!"
Seta has now completely convinced Malu. He always thought that he was brave enough and not afraid of death.
However, when that moment really came, he realized how scared he was. He was worried that his father would not have money to buy medicine after his death, and he was worried that someone would bully his sister.
Fortunately, God, no, it was Malu who gave him another life.
Seta took off an animal tooth hanging from his neck, held it in front of Malu, and said seriously, "I don't have much money, so I can only use this thing to express my gratitude for the time being. Of course, I will always remember this kindness in my heart." !”
“Ah? No need.” Ma Lu waved his hand.
However, Seta insisted on giving him the animal tooth necklace, "My grandfather left this to my father, and my father passed it on to me. It is said that there is a relationship behind it. The whereabouts of the secret treasure."
Hearing this, Ma Lu subconsciously looked to his side, but his dedicated commentator was no longer there.
Maimai is currently interrogating the remaining survivors.
Fortunately, Boqi also heard about this matter. "It is said that in addition to various wild beasts, there are secret treasures hidden in this desert. If you approach the secret treasure with the key, the key will generate a reaction. This earth dragon's tooth should be a A key."
"What's in the secret treasure?"
"I don't know."
"I said so. It’s a legend,” Poch said, “No one has obtained the secret treasure in Jumu for at least thirty years.”
"That is to say, someone got it thirty years ago?"
"Some people say that the leader of the Golden Sword, the first hunting group of the giant screen, has a secret treasure, and he relied on this secret treasure to establish The Golden Sword, but he himself has never admitted it.”
“Okay.”
Due to Seta’s firm attitude, Malu finally accepted the necklace, but he didn’t. Take it too seriously. According to Pochi, the existence of the secret treasure is still controversial. Besides, unless the secret treasure is an ingredient, he won't be able to take it back even if he finds it.
Mai Mai finally finished interrogating those people and came back with a solemn expression.
Ma Lu pointed at the tip of her nose, "Here."
Maimai reached out and wiped off the blood without caring, and said, "These guys have indeed planned it."
“We didn’t have any conflicts with the Skyrim Hunting Group before, right?” Boqi said.
“They are not from the Skyline Hunting Group.” Mai Mai shook his head, “They just faked the name of the Skyline Hunting Group. The two injured guys are not from them either. They were kidnapped by them on the road. , broke their legs and stabbed their abdomen, forcing them to cooperate in acting and lowering our vigilance.”
"Who are they?"
"Black Corner." Mai Mai spat out two words.
This name surprised Poch.
“But it’s not the Black Horn Hunting Group that wants to deal with us,” Mai Mai continued. “The Black Horn has a very bad reputation. There have always been rumors that the hunters in that hunting group, in addition to going out to hunt, also They will do some shady things.”
“Someone hired the Black Horn Hunting Group to kill us,” Pochi said, “Who?”
"The person I interrogated didn't know that there are many people in Black Corner. He said that this kind of business is usually handled by Deputy Captain Kanema. They are only responsible for taking money to do things and will not ask more questions to avoid getting into trouble. "
Bo Qi frowned when he heard this.
The Shuangyanghua Hunting Group is just a small hunting group that has just been established. Logically speaking, it should not be targeted by others. After thinking about it, Boqi thought that during this period, he probably only interacted with the Treasure Hunting Group. There are festivals.
But asking Black Corner to take action requires a lot of money. The treasure hunting group has just fallen into their hands. They have lost all their equipment and motorcycles, and they have been banned from hunting by the guild for three years. Money should be very tight.
Could it be that he went to someone to borrow money out of revenge?
Pochi was still thinking, but Ma Lu had already said, "Just ask Jin Jian about this kind of thing."
"How could Jin Jian tell us honestly?"
"Mai Isn’t Mai very good at interrogation?”
“Ah, you plan to arrest Jin Jian, but doesn’t that mean going to war with Black Corner, and the bailiff...” Mai Mai pretended to be worried. , in fact, the eager look in her eyes betrayed her true inner thoughts.
“As long as we do it cleanly and no one knows about it, Black Corner has been doing dirty work, so he must have a lot of enemies.”
Malu has been to this plane several times, interacted with many people, and gradually learned some of the rules of conduct here.
To put it bluntly, the bailiffs can only take care of matters within the city, but in this desert, the competition is actually about whose fist is stronger.
He looked at Boqi again and asked a very crucial question, "Based on your understanding of Black Corner, will they just die out after this failure, or will they come to trouble us again?"
Pochi was finally persuaded by these words. She knew Black Corner's behavior and she never spat out the money she received.
If they fail once, they will only look for another chance.
Always reacting passively will only become more and more dangerous. It is better to take the initiative.
"What are you going to do?"
"Does Jin Jian go out of town often?" Ma Lu asked again.
Pochi nodded, "After all, Black Horn is also a hunting group. Even if he takes on illegal jobs privately, on the surface it is no different from other hunting groups."
"Then pay attention to his whereabouts. Once If he leaves the city before I come, help me prepare more fresh ingredients and we can prepare a surprise for him," Ma Lu said leisurely.
Thanks to 228, Huang Tiantian and other children’s boots for their rewards~
