Chapter 37 The Ghoul Case
【Ghost Cases】
Han Dong immediately became curious.
"Isn't it absolutely safe inside the holy city? Ghouls... Why do monsters in Western literary works appear in private houses?
According to the apprentice knight, it seems that behind the incident, there is also a reward order issued by relevant organizations. As long as this type of incident can be resolved, a certain bounty can be obtained.
He should have evaluated the strength of the ghoul's body to the extent of damage, and he might be reluctant to recruit teammates by himself.
If I come forward to help, I can use this to gain an in-depth understanding of such events and why monsters appear in private houses, and at the same time, I can also understand the rewards and get a certain bounty. Now I am very short of money.
But there are risks...it is easy to be exposed, and I have not officially entered the academy yet, so it may be dangerous to deal with ghouls."
Faced with the temporary recruitment order of the blonde young knight, Han Dong did not take any action for the time being.
He has not officially entered the Knight Academy and has not had any related training in mysticism. Except for the tentacle attacks brought by the Faceless Head, he will not have any mysterious skills.
"Wait... if you have an enemy skill, there is one!"
…………
After waiting for about five minutes, the young knight felt helpless.
"Most of the trainee knights study in the academy, and even if they go out, they will not 'down' and run to civilian areas to waste time.
The reward order only talks about the cemetery suspected to be stolen at the intersection of Ghana civilian areas and Samai civilian areas... Since the interval is not too long, we are asked to come and catch the newly born ghoul who has just transformed into a degenerate mind.
Judging from the depth of scratches on the corpse and the remains of fungi, this must be an adult ghoul.
The information has been sent back to the academy, and the reward volume has been increased... But if I go back to find someone to form a team now, the ghoul will likely slip away.
A large amount of copper coin rewards, plus extracurricular credit points, I really can't bear to give up!
But I can't joke about my life."
The young knight put away his sword and seemed to be unwilling to go into the house to investigate... When a person is alive, he has a chance, especially since he has been studying in the college smoothly, so there is no need to take this risk.
Just then, a thin, brunette young man in the crowd slowly squeezed out.
Wearing a slightly larger linen shirt,
Under the yellowed skin, the bone lines are clearly visible.
"Hazardous areas, prohibited..."
Just as a security officer was about to push Han Dong back to the crowd with brute force, a golden card was handed out.
"Add Knight!!"
For a moment, the security personnel stared at Han Dong with surprise and took the initiative to make way out.
"I don't know if I can help?"
After some thought, Han Dong determined that the benefits obtained by help are greater than the disadvantages than non-help.
“How many major points are there?”
The young knight came over and looked at Han Dong... To be honest, even the nerds who majored in [Library] were in much better physical condition than Han Dong.
"Two points [Mystery], my name is Aron Andeva." Han Dong deliberately used a pseudonym, but he couldn't find it now.
"Two points... I just qualified, but the [mysticism] you have practiced is a bit troublesome to deal with ghouls in this space-constrained environment.
Introduce yourself.
My name is Cas Maldini, and I have now allocated three destiny points in [Crusader]... Power and speed can face the general ghoul head-on.
But, the problem is here at the moment.
You will know when you come here and take a look.”
Under Cas' guidance, the two came to the hostess hanging at the door.
“The first reward order I received was just a ‘newborn ghoul’.
But the scars on the dead body mean that the ghouls hiding in this building are already mature... I even suspect that this family deliberately concealed it and secretly raised ghouls in the basement.
Mature ghouls are slightly better than me in every way.
The most troublesome thing is the issue of vitality! Once he cannot cut off his head or penetrate his heart, other attacks cannot stop the ghoul."
"Um……"
While listening, Han Dong looked at the claw-shaped scars on the hostess' body and analyzed silently in his heart:
"The area torn apart by the sharp claws has already appeared, the cell tissues are swollen, and blood circulation is severely blocked... Even if you are not fatal, being caught is enough to die quickly.
Is this a ghoul? No wonder this trainee knight dared not perform a mission alone.
The danger is greater than I thought. Once injured and not treated promptly, you may die."
"Andva, tell me about your abilities? If you prefer astrology as a prediction and reconnaissance, then forget it."
Han Dong is very direct.
Take out a short blade wrapped around the green breath.
This made Cas in front of him look shocked: "A weapon of destiny that meets the attributes of majoring!? What is the function?"
"Can release monomer non-directional plague attacks."
"Plague...ghouls may have some resistance.
However, since it is a weapon of fate, it must have effect. OK. When fighting later, you must listen to my command and not act recklessly... Moreover, you are not in good health, so you must hide behind me."
"good."
Cass secretly pulled Han Dong's sleeve, leaned closer and asked in a low voice: "Ahem, by the way...how did you get this weapon of fate?"
"Hide events."
"Sure enough! I just said that those guys don't believe it yet!
From the fate cards obtained from the small probability of major events, the probability of digging out weapons is pitifully low. You must explore hidden events as much as possible and obtain weapons of fate from hidden rewards... I really envy you.
Although my sword and shield are made of pure silver and have a certain effect of exorcising evil spirits, they are far inferior to the weapons of fate.
You wait for me.
I asked the security guards here to bring muskets and surround the building! To prevent the ghoul from suddenly running away during the battle with us."
Judging from Cas's way of speaking and handling methods, it is obviously not the first time he has received such a reward task.
After the personnel are arranged, the hostess' body is packed in a body bag and transported to the church by relevant personnel for purification and cremation.
Everything is ready.
Han Dong followed Cas and stepped into this Victorian-style villa together.
As soon as you enter the door, you can smell a deteriorating smell of your body.
Kass was a little uncomfortable, but Han Dong was nothing.
After all, Han Dong was a man who dealt with bacteria all day long during his lifetime. Once there was a problem with bacterial culture, the smell... can make people immediately develop the desire to diet and lose weight.
"Where are your goggles?"
Cass took out the necessary brass goggles from his waist and wore them on his head.
“No…”
"Are you... not afraid of death? Once you are mentally contaminated, it is not just about reducing the "stress"... Fortunately, when I went out today, I also brought the spare goggles with me and used them."
"Thanks."
Han Dong took it and put it on quickly
Cass said, "You are a occultist, and you should know better about [ghouls] than me... Although they are transformed by humans, they are also related to things outside the city walls. Wear goggles!
Once damaged, exit the battle immediately.”
"good."
Han Dong didn't understand at all.
Chapter completed!
