Chapter 38 Incident

(Reminder, the pseudonym Han Dong used in the previous chapter was [Alan Andrews])

The basic frame material of the goggles is some kind of flexible and lightweight metal, the surface is plated with a layer of brass, and it is equipped with gears, bearing structures and retractable belts for easy wearing and adjustment.

However, the material of the lens, Han Dong is not clear.

It should not be ordinary glass. It is estimated that a special transparent material is used to protect the eyes from visual pollution of a special 'band light'.

Wearing goggles, Han Dong was thinking about an 'important' issue.

before the search.

Han Dong reached out and grabbed Cass who was about to start the search.

I have a question, why do ghouls hang their mistresses at the door?

Cass explained what he learned from the book: Mature ghouls have a certain wisdom, and this 'showing' behavior shows that ghouls have a certain level of hatred for their hostess...

If it were me, if I really wanted to show my enemy to the public, I would choose to hang it at the door when I fled in the middle of the night... By the time someone found it, I had already escaped.

There's no need to be so ostentatious.

Han Dong's statement is correct.

If ghouls are wise, why would they do such a conspicuous act of hanging their masters at the door in broad daylight? Isn't that setting fire to their bodies?

Han Dong continued to speculate: Is it possible... he has escaped?

Cass immediately denied: Impossible! Due to the theft of the cemetery, the security team has been investigating from house to house recently.

I rushed to the scene as soon as possible, saw the hostess just hanging at the door, and even saw the back of the ghoul.

In a short period of time, more than 30 security personnel armed with muskets completely surrounded the house, and the ghouls had not yet escaped.

Han Dong shook his head, Not necessarily... He can't escape from around the house, it doesn't mean it can't escape from other places.

Didn't you say before that this family was suspected of feeding ghouls privately?

Since they can hide it for so many years, is it possible that the family's basement has undergone related renovations and can be extended to point to another place.

Han Dong said so.

Cass was suddenly enlightened, It's possible! Damn it!!

Putting on his sword and shield, Cas immediately rushed towards the basement.

The person's movement speed is not at all like wearing armor that hinders movement... Swift as the wind, he reaches the end of the hallway and finds the hidden entrance to the basement.

Han Dong didn't move so fast.

Instead, he deliberately waited until Cass went to the basement, and then quietly released the [Chen Li, the Evil One] who was kept in the prison.

Miss Chen Li, please conduct a thorough search on the first and second floors of this building! If you find a ghoul, let me know as soon as possible... In addition, if you find a book involving 'ghoul', bring it with you as well. .

If someone else breaks in during the period, return to prison immediately.

If there is a secret passage in the basement, remember to follow it later.

Stay within 10 meters of me...make sure you can get in and out of the portable prison at all times.

Han Dong only speculated that the ghouls might escape from the secret passage in the basement... It is not 100% certain, it is necessary to keep a hand.

In addition, after testing, as long as she is within ten meters, Chen Li can be instantly taken back to the prison.

OK.

Before taking action, Chen Li asked worriedly:

I smell an evil odor wafting from this house, is it okay for you to be alone? If you are in danger... can I come forward?

It depends,

Don't come out as much as possible, and this cooperative knight has some skills... It shouldn't be a problem.

Okay, be careful.

Chen Li first went up the stairs and searched the second floor to find what Han Dong wanted.

Han Dong took the Plague Doctor's Short Blade and followed the steps of the Cass Knight... The moment he stepped into the basement, the taste was even heavier.

There are a lot of animal bones left on the ground in the basement, and a little residue is still hanging on the end of the bone spur, and the residual temperature has not dissipated... Obviously the ghoul's eating process has just been completed.

Friend Andrew, there really is you! Sure enough, there is a secret passage!

Cass found 'loose stone bricks' from the basement walls through traces of liquid on the ground.

After pressing it, a gloomy secret passage full of rancid smell appeared.

This direction...could it extend to the cemetery!?

No wonder, even in a civilian area, the management of the cemetery is very strict, and there are at least three night watchmen and the use of muskets is allowed.

It was only found that the body had been stolen, but there was no trace of loosening the soil. It turned out that the body was stolen from the underground area!

A bit of a hassle!

Cass is still very experienced, and turned to look at Han Dong behind him.

Friend Andrew, if the ghoul is successfully eliminated, I am willing to give you 40% of the bounty... In addition, the situation here is more complicated than I imagined.

If it wasn't this house but the cemetery... there's a small chance that there were multiple ghouls.

Once we encounter more than two, we immediately give up the mission and report to the Knights Academy for stronger people to handle.

Han Dong nodded, Well... if that's the case, my previous guess was not quite right.

The purpose of the ghoul hanging the body of the hostess at the door was indeed intentional.

Revenge is one reason, the second may be to deliberately bring people in, if there are multiple ghouls, they must be a little hungry.

Once full, they flee from the other side of the cemetery.

Cass nodded slightly, and his face became unsightly, Your body is a little weak, just follow me... Remote support is fine.

It can be seen that this little brother Cass is a quite righteous knight.

If he is really in danger, he will choose to escape with Han Dong.

…………

The walls of the secret passage were covered with black mycelium, and a large number of sporophytes were floating in the air.

Before entering, Cass reached out and touched the frame on the right side of the goggles.

You can only hear the sound of the gears turning, and through precise folding and unfolding, the semi-covered leather mask that is enclosed in the goggles immediately appears and wraps the parts below the eyes, which can effectively filter such bacteria.

Han Dong also learned to do the same.

A black mask immediately covered the mouth and nose.

Walk!

Cass took out a simple kerosene lamp and walked ahead with the other sword in hand.

Han Dong deliberately found a piece of scrap iron in the basement to block the secret door to prevent it from closing on its own.

As the two deepened.

At the basement stairs, Chen Li, wearing cloth shoes, walked down slowly...

…………

Before he walked out of the passage, he heard some kind of sound of sharp claws scraping and tongues rubbing.

At the same time, there are more and more bacterial tissues on the wall of the channel.

Listen to the sound, there's more than one ghoul!

To be honest, Cass was a little embarrassed.

But if you need to report to the Knights Guild that there are multiple ghouls at the bottom of the cemetery, you must collect enough information, and hearing is not enough.

If the ghouls escape in advance when the knight team arrives, Cass will be held accountable for the 'false alarm'.

Friend Andrew, you are waiting here! Your body can't escape the ghouls... I will go up and take a look alone. Once I find the ghoul's lair, I will evacuate immediately.

Fine.

Cass walked alone.

About ten minutes later, overlapping sounds of running came from the depths.

Get out of here now!!!

The number of ghouls in the **** of the ghoul's nest is as high as ten or more, and the situation must be reported quickly!
