Bai Xiaowen has already seen it with insight, and Gide's strength is elite level 7, which can be said to be the master of the entire crow organization, second only to the leader Benny.

"But Joshua has already shown his loyalty," Bai Xiaowen said with a hint of interest, "I admit that your ability is better than Joshua...... However, I value loyalty more than anything else, and I'm sure you know that. ”

Gid exclaimed, "Rest assured, my loyalty, no less than Joshua's. In order to avoid Bai Xiaowen's misunderstanding, after obtaining Bai Xiaowen's consent, he slowly pulled out the iron axe on his waist and chopped it down with an axe against Benny's corpse on the side.

Benny was whipped a second time, and a skull rolled away.

The other members of the Raven Order were moved when they saw the bloody scene. Most of them tried their best to suppress their inner turmoil, and only a few cast a disdainful look at Gide.

Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly: "Okay, I recognize your loyalty for the time being." You can be the second leader of the Raven Order, equal to Joshua's status. He raised his hand for two men to come over and put Benny's headless body and head together and carry them away.

Bai Xiaowen himself does not have a perverted hobby of whipping corpses. Joshua's servant who was bewitched by him stabbed Benny's body was deliberately done by Bai Xiaowen, just to give the rest of the Raven Organization a leading role and give these people a chance to follow suit.

Especially Joshua's own status is not high, if he relies on whipping corpses to climb on the heads of others, how can those elite template organization members be willing. Therefore, Gide's performance was actually within Bai Xiaowen's expectations.

The internal cohesion of the Raven Organization is actually relatively weak, and the loyalty of the members to the boss is very low. The boss Benny is cold by nature, seeing his subordinate bald strong man being killed on the spot, he doesn't even dare to put one more fart, this kind of boss is destined to have no hardcore followers.

Seeing that Jide's defection was also recognized by Bai Xiaowen, the other members of the organization were a little moved. However, after Bai Xiaowen obtained Gide's allegiance, he had already achieved his basic goal, and immediately ordered the others to leave, and Gide and Joshua stayed behind to inquire about the disappearance case and voodoo.

Maybe it's because of the existence of Joshua as a competitor by his side, Gide's attitude towards Bai Xiaowen can be described as kneeling and licking, which is obviously different from Benny's yang and yin violations before.

"Did the Crow Organization participate in the missing person case?" and did you know about it?" Bai Xiaowen first asked the question of the main task.

Gid looked terrified and shook his head repeatedly: "My lord, I dare to guarantee with my life that the Raven Organization has nothing to do with the disappearance of people. Although the business taken over by the organization is led by Benny's boss...... No, Benny's guy decided, but he wouldn't dare to get his hands dirty with such a large case. He's not a good thing, but he's not so daring. ”

Bai Xiaowen discerned his appearance and knew that what Gide said was not a lie.

"Then the second question, how much do you know about voodoo?" Bai Xiaowen stared at Gide with burning eyes, not letting go of his every subtle expression and reaction.

Gid said honestly, "Voodoo and we have some cooperation. ”

"What kind of cooperation?"

Gid: "It's to collect some special materials, and as you know, many of the rituals of Voodoo require some inexplicable mediums, such as the blood of a virgin, the eyes of a frog, or the venom glands of a cobra......"

Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes: "Where is the Voodoo stronghold in Hodge Town?"

Gid shook his head.

"Since there is a cooperative relationship, will you not know their stronghold? You dare to lie to me?" Although Bai Xiaowen judged from his heartbeat, breathing and subtle expression that Gide was not lying, he still had to put pressure on Gide.

Gid hurriedly shouted: "My lord, I really don't know, even Benny doesn't know the secret stronghold of Voodoo, every time he trades, the other party comes to collect the items, and then hands us a new list of materials for us to collect...... Because the other party is very generous, we are happy to make a lot of extra money, anyway, the things to collect are just trouble, not too difficult......"

"Who is the person who came to the door, you should have followed him, right?" Bai Xiaowen asked.

Gid: "...... It wasn't actually a human, but a huge stitched corpse, somewhat similar to the corpse you summoned. That's why Joshua called out the name of Voodoo when he saw the adult corpse monster for the first time......"

After a pause, Gid continued to speak, but he seemed a little weak-hearted: "We see that the other party's hand is generous, and we have indeed followed the corpse monster and wanted to find the other party's address...... It's just that the brothers who were sent out that time didn't come back, and the next day they found their bodies hanging at the door of Blackwater Alley, covered with maggots and mildew, and their deaths were horrible. Since then, Benny has ...... There was no mention of tracking again. ”

Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly, what Gide said should be true.

In the team channel, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi discussed.

"We came to this Blackwater Alley, originally to find the main quest and solve the clues of the missing human case, but we didn't expect to have crooked tricks and actually got the clues of Voodoo. Bai Xiaowen said in the team channel.

Li Shuyi: "Hey, I originally thought that the disappearance case had something to do with voodoo...... You say, is that still possible?"

"It's basically impossible," Bai Xiaowen said, "According to Gid's description, the secret lair of the Voodoo Cult in Hodge Town should be staffed with few but fine types, maybe only a few elite-level, one or two high-level leaders and powerhouses, or even more extreme, only one or two bare-bones commanders. With such a staffing arrangement, it is unlikely that a large-scale human kidnapping case will be planned and carried out without being discovered by the sheriff and the crow organization. ”

Bai Xiaowen deduced the staffing of the Voodoo Cult by thinking backwards. If there are a large number of voodoo cults, then the small work of collecting frog eyes, venom glands of poisonous snakes, etc., which is not very difficult, will not be "outsourced" to the crow organization, and in line with the principle of secrecy, this kind of work should not be done by one's own people, that is, voodoo cultists.

After listening to Bai Xiaowen's explanation, Li Shuyi also quickly agreed.

"The focus of our exploration next can be shifted to the side quest of Voodoo," Bai Xiaowen thought for a while and said, "Although the main quest has the highest status, it has a full ten days, and its own difficulty rating is only an ordinary A level, I believe it will be completed in the end." Voodoo's elite side quests have a time limit of only 72 hours, so now that you have a clue, let's do this first. ”

Li Shuyi: "But the address of the secret stronghold of the Voodoo Cult, the people of the Raven Organization don't know, how to find it?"

Bai Xiaowen smiled and turned to ask Gide: "The contact between the people of the Voodoo Sect and you is about once a few days?"

"I'm not sure about it, it seems to be very irregular," Gide said...... When it's urgent, it will come once a day or two, and at the end of the list of materials left by the corpse monster, the additional wording is also very harsh, and some threatening words will be added. Other times, it's more relaxed, and I only come once every ten days and a half months. ”

"When was the last time you were here?"

"Three days ago. Gide replied quickly this time.

"Last time?"

"Four days ago. ”

"Bring me a list of materials that the Voodoo Cult Zombie gives me every time, especially the note containing his urging. ”

Gid was a little apprehensive: "We don't keep the bill of materials and that kind of thing properly...... There may only be a few left, all of which are recent. ”

"Alright, I'll get a few of them. Bai Xiaowen said lightly. He also didn't expect an underground organization to have strict rules and regulations, to keep good documents and archives, and so on.

A moment later.

Bai Xiaowen pinched a few lists, and after asking Jide a few words, he groaned slightly.

"There are a total of four lists here, which are the materials of the last four acquisitions," Bai Xiaowen analyzed in the team channel, "According to the dates recalled by Gid, three of them were three days, four days, and six days ago, which can be seen as next to each other, and the message at the end of the list is also very impatient, and he can't wait to pick up the goods on the spot." And the earliest one was half a month ago. So I reasoned...... In a short period of time, Voodoo people will no longer come to the door to pick up the goods. ”

After a pause, Bai Xiaowen said again: "It's a pity, I originally thought that if the people from the Voodoo Sect would come to the door in the next two days, we could track the corpse monsters and come to a vine to touch the melon." ”

Bai Xiaowen's analysis was the Tao, but Li Shuyi was confused: "How do you know that people from the Voodoo Sect will not come in the short term?"

"From this irregular pick-up date, it can be inferred that these materials were used for voodoo experiments, rather than normal production, because normal production requires not only a stable supply source, but also a large demand for the same kind of goods, which is not on the list. ”

Bai Xiaowen paused: "Doing experiments, especially when exploring unknown experiments, experimenters need to verify many of their own assumptions. Just as Edison invented the light bulb and experimented with thousands of materials, voodoo experimenters had to change materials constantly. Therefore, from the frequency of the list of materials, it can be seen that the stage progress of his experiment. ”

Li Shuyi understood: "In other words, the continuous and harshly worded list of materials represents that the other party's experiment has encountered a bottleneck, is tackling key problems, and urgently needs materials." And the bill of materials, which only comes once every ten days and a half months, means that a certain stage of the experiment has been successful, and the other party has no new experimental ideas. ”

Bai Xiaowen smiled and nodded: "That's right." Looking at the dates of these four lists, the last three pick-ups were concentrated three days ago, four days ago and six days ago, and the interval was only one or two days before the urgent need for new materials, which means that the experimenter is in the bottleneck stage. And since the last pick-up, three days have passed, and the other party has not come...... This should mean that the experiment has been a phased success, and the other party is not very urgent about this batch of materials. ”

This is the basis for Bai Xiaowen to speculate that Voodoo people will not come to the door in a short period of time, which seems to be conjecture, but in fact there are deep reasons.

Of course, this kind of speculation is not 100% accurate, and it is not surprising that the experimenter's brain is pumped and he has a new inspiration or something, and suddenly comes to the door. Bai Xiaowen's speculation is only applicable under normal circumstances, and there are seven or eight percent of the possibilities, but it does not rule out two or three percent of accidents.

Li Shuyi said a little distressed: "What should I do...... If the Voodoo people don't come, we'll have to wait and see, and if it exceeds 72 hours, the mission will fail. ”

Bai Xiaowen said with a smile: "So this task rating is an A-level elite task." ”

Li Shuyi pouted, and then laughed again: "I won't toss my poor brain cells." You're there anyway...... Last time in the Kane Plane World, you were able to handle the S-class hero mission, and this A-level elite mission must be even more problematic. ”

Bai Xiaowen spread his hands: "Don't say that, the last S-class hero mission was actually mostly lucky, if it weren't for Dr. Zombie's zombie research that happened to restrain the necromantic plague, that task would not have been completed at all...... Even so, the final level of completion is low. ”

Of course, once the S-class hero mission is completed, the rewards you get are also very terrifying. Bai Xiaowen's permanent fiefdom order is considered a direct reward, and the permanent team building prop Black Blade's Oath, as well as the opportunity to pick up and kill the remnant Great Chief Absolon later, and obtain two pieces of dark gold equipment (blood essence stone + dark gold shoulder guards), can also be regarded as indirect extensions.

After Bai Xiaowen told the truth and said a word modestly, he motioned for Gide to leave, and then carefully studied the list of materials. He had a feeling that there was an invisible thread that existed in these lists, and as long as he grasped that thread, this A-level elite task would be half completed.

After reading through it a few times, Bai Xiaowen suddenly stood up.

"What's wrong?" asked Li Shuyi.

"I have an idea, I don't know if it's right...... But thinking about it, there should be a great possibility," Bai Xiaowen said in a deep voice, "Let Jid restrain the members of the Raven Organization, strictly control Blackwater Alley, and not allow any members to go out...... You come with me. ”

Li Shuyi followed closely: "What's the matter, could it be that someone in the Raven Organization knows the stronghold of the Voodoo Cult?"

"No, no, I'm just in case to prevent these people from leaking the news," Bai Xiaowen said in a low voice, "I don't have time to explain, come with me quickly...... I made a mistake that I should have thought of a long time ago. ”

Li Shuyi pursed her lips and didn't ask any more questions, so as not to disturb Bai Xiaowen's train of thought.

After instructing Jide, Bai Xiaowen took Li Shuyi and quickly left Heishui Lane, then quickly turned right, followed the road he came, and stepped on the dilapidated commercial street full of sewage stench.

After walking for a while, Bai Xiaowen stopped at a shop at the corner of the street.

"Whew...... OK. This is it. ”

Bai Xiaowen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the door of the store was still open, and his tightly knit brows relaxed.

On the sign of the store, there is a line of words: Achaia's cauldron.
