Chapter 502 Abandoning the Mission
"Brother, I have never been so depressed as today, really. My God, this bitch, there are more people who come to her than buy my tomato noodles, how can I bear it!"

Bringing Tom to the lumberyard completes the first link in the chain, but it's not the end.

Compared with his wife becoming a bus, Tom cared more about his own scandal, whether it would be spread, and begged: "I'm in the east of the city, and I've been selling tomato noodles for more than ten years. Many people know me. Please. , don’t spread this matter, I’m willing to give you a good thing, as long as you can forget about it.”

"Didi: The first ring of the chain mission is over, agree to Tom's request, and start the second ring mission"

Goldfinger's reminder sounded next to his ear, Wu Ming's eyes flickered slightly, and he said without hesitation: "Of course, I am a mercenary, and it is my responsibility to keep secrets for my employer. This matter will never be spread. .”

"Okay, I believe you, take this thing." Tom took out a black ring from his pocket, and handed it to Wu Ming solemnly.

Wu Ming took the ring and took a look. This black ring was very strange, it was not gold, not silver, not copper, not iron, and there was a faint coolness in the hand.

Feel it carefully, this coolness is like a kind of energy, which gives him a very eerie feeling.

"My second uncle is the night watchman of the mass graves outside the city, but he disappeared last week. I went to the mass graves to look for him, but no one found him, but I found this ring. Now it belongs to you. "Tom explained casually, to Wu Ming's ears, it was the opening lead of the second ring of the mission.

"Didi: The chain mission opens the second ring, explore the mass graves outside the city, find the missing night watchman, the mission rewards 50 experience points."

The first ring task is to investigate extramarital affairs, and the second ring task is to find the missing administrator.

Wu Ming stroked the ring on his hand, and instinctively sensed that he was going from a small matter to a bigger vortex.

Perhaps, this is the charm of chain missions. The difficulty gradually increases, and the rewards become more and more generous. No one knows what the final mission is.

This feeling of finding the truth in the unknown and slowly uncovering the fog is like playing a hide-and-seek game, which can satisfy people's desire to explore.

"The mission reward of the second ring is equivalent to killing half of the wanted criminals, and this is only the second ring! If there are four, five, and other mission cycles behind, how huge the rewards will be! "Wu Ming squeezed the black ring and left impatiently.

The city of Bragg belongs to the important town of the Holy Light Empire and has a large population base.

The mass burial post is located 20 miles west of the city, in an ancient forest.

In the past, wanted criminals who were hanged, gang members who died in street fighting, and unclaimed corpses would all be dumped in this place.

Over time, this place has become a place where strangers are not allowed to enter, and only one night watchman is in charge of looking after it.

"Mass Burial Mound!"

When he came to the mass grave in the west of the city, Wu Ming looked up at the sky.

It was now afternoon, and according to the time, it should be 5 o'clock in the afternoon.

Withdrawing his gaze, Wu Ming put on his hood and began to walk into the forest. His steady pace seemed to be unstoppable by any obstacles.

“Wow wow wow”

Stepping on the thick fallen leaves, Wu Ming raised his head slightly, and found that it was his intrusion, which alarmed a group of crows.

Crows represent bad luck in ancient times, and their cries are very harsh. According to legend, they are the embodiment of bad luck.

Wu Ming walked in front, while the crows lingered behind, for some reason they refused to disperse for a long time.

Aware of this special phenomenon, Wu Ming stopped, with thought in his eyes.

There are only two possibilities that crows are not afraid of humans. One is that these crows are raised by humans, and the other is that these crows have attacked humans and are used to eating human flesh.

This is a mass grave, and there will never be a shortage of dead people. The second type may be bigger than the first type.

Thinking that in the eyes of these crows, he was a door-to-door food, Wu Ming couldn't laugh or cry, so he simply left them alone.

"crunch."

After walking a few hundred meters in the woods, and pushing open a rotten gate, this is the core of the mass grave.

Especially near the fence gate, there is also a dilapidated cabin, which is probably the home of the night watchman.

Push open the wooden house and walk in. A bed, a table, a stove, an oil lamp, and an ax for chopping wood are all there is in the room.

Wu Ming touched the table with his hand, and his fingers were covered with dust. Sure enough, as Tom said, the night watchman had been missing for a long time. Looking at the dust on the table, no one cleaned it for at least a week.

"The missing night watchman, with a cool black ring." Wu Ming knew that the night watchman disappeared, and he couldn't be the one who got lost, so he rummaged through the room to see if he could find some clues.

Surprisingly, Wu Ming found a diary from under the bed.

I flipped through the diary and read a few pages. This diary was left by the night watchman, and it wrote what I did every day, as well as some of my own expectations.

"June 6. Last night, I heard a strange sound coming from the mass grave. I searched around and found nothing."

"June 6th. Strange noises have been going on for three days. As soon as I walk out of the room, the noises will disappear, and when I come back, the voices will start. What the hell."

"June 6. I decided to lurk in the cemetery tonight to see who is up to it."

The diary is written here, and there will be no follow-up.

Wu Ming closed the diary, guessing that Old Tom was dead, because of his own curiosity.

It is said that curiosity can kill cats. According to legend, cats have nine lives, and they can all be killed by their own curiosity, let alone an ordinary night watchman.

However, the task is not over yet. As the saying goes, if you want to see people, you need to see dead bodies. He still needs to find Old Tom.

"Who is playing tricks in the mass burial ground? Could it be Earl Cullen's people who performed the ceremony here?" Wu Ming thought of Earl Cullen, and felt that it should have something to do with him.

You must know that Earl Cullen is a believer in evil gods, and he believes in evil gods from the plane of the undead. The sacrifices to evil gods are usually very evil.

In the city of Tibula, various forces are intertwined. The Thieves Guild, the Temple of Wealth, and the Temple of Holy Light are all large forces no less than the City Lord's Mansion.

In terms of safety, this inaccessible mass grave is definitely safer than the City Lord's Mansion.After all, there are many people in the city lord's mansion, and every move is under the eyes of various forces, and many things are inconvenient to do.

"Chong"

Pulling out the sword from his waist with one hand, Wu Ming strode towards the depths of the mass grave.

To the eye, all the solitary tombs are new, as if someone had filled the tombs with soil, and there are obvious signs of being passive.

Wu Ming frowned slightly, the sword in his hand suddenly cut out, and slammed on a lonely grave.

With a bang, the tomb was divided into two by the long sword. Wu Ming looked down and found that there were no bones in the tomb.

One, two, three.
The long sword kept waving, and the lonely graves were cut open.

After breaking open seven graves in a row, none of the bones was found. By this time, Wu Ming was sure that this mass grave had been hollowed out.

"In a mass grave, there are tens of thousands of bones. Where did all these bones go?" Wu Ming continued to walk deep, wanting to see the secret of the disappearance of the bones.

Ten minutes later, Wu Ming found a clue.

This is the deepest part of the mass burial mound. Apart from the traces of the tomb being passive, even the ground under the feet seems to have been refurbished.

Aware of this change, Wu Ming slashed out three times in a row, blasting a big hole in the ground.

There are bones everywhere under the ground, and countless skeletons have been put together by people, as if forming a strange thing.

Because only the tip of the iceberg was blown away, Wu Ming couldn't see what was formed, so he continued to dig, and forcibly blasted away the surrounding land.

In the end, a bone altar appeared, and countless skeletons formed a huge altar, which was buried deep under the loess.

On the altar, there was still an undecomposed corpse. This man looked 70 to [-] years old, and he could barely recognize the appearance of Old Tom.

"Didi: The second ring of the chain mission is completed, inform the major temples of this news, and start the third ring mission."

After finding Old Tom's body, Wu Ming's second ring task was completed, and he had obtained 50 experience points.

Looking at the task reminder that was refreshed again, Wu Ming hesitated, because he was already sure that the altar must be the work of Earl Cullen, and he didn't want to spread the matter.

"Sure enough, it's exactly what I thought. It's really the work of Earl Cullen. However, once the news of the Bone Altar is released, it will definitely attract the attention of the major temples, and it may destroy Earl Cullen's plan. Although I am not the same as Earl Cullen We're in the same group, but what he's going to do is beneficial to me, so I have no reason to hold him back!" The invasion of the undead tribe is a disaster for human beings, but the benefits outweigh the disadvantages for Wu Ming.

He is not the Virgin, let alone the savior, and has no ambition to save mankind.

On the contrary, after the invasion of the undead tribe, the battle of the gods that may start will give him a chance to fish in troubled waters and break the pattern of stagnant water.

"Others say that being right is more helpful than being wrong, but it's the other way around here. Earl Cullen, you owe me one more time. You owe me, but you have to pay it back!" Wu Ming's eyes flickered, and he glanced at the person in front of him. Bone Altar, ordered: "Give up the chain mission."
