Chapter 624: Alcoholic Priest

Even though this haunting ghost is still very young, it is quite powerful. It has 30 HP points and a challenge level of 3. Its attributes are: strength -, agility 16, constitution -, intelligence 4, perception 16, and charm 16.

In addition to the regular characteristics of the incorporeal undead, the ghost baby also masters the three talents of "mastery collision", "accurate shooting" and "rapid shooting".

In addition, the ghost baby can automatically turn invisible in a dim environment. Only when it is illuminated by strong light will it show its hazy figure, just like what Goofy and Martin saw just now.

Ghost babies are naturally good at telekinesis, and have evolved two methods of attack.

The first is "Psychic Impact", where you focus your telekinesis to collide with a target within 10 feet. After hitting it, it will cause 3d6 force field damage and an additional "collision".

If the opponent is Medium or smaller and fails a DC 17 Strength check, he is pushed 10 feet away and falls to the ground.

The difficulty of this collision test is quite high!

Gao Fei himself is also good at collision tactics. It can be seen at a glance that this is included in the enhanced effect of "Proficient Collision".

Just now in the kitchen, he was knocked away by the ghost baby's "psychic impact" and nearly half of his blood was knocked out. He sat on the ground for a while before he could catch his breath.

The ghost baby can also use its telekinesis to remotely control items to attack targets within 30 feet, causing 2d6 bludgeoning or piercing damage upon hit.

The specific type of injury depends on whether the remote control is a blunt instrument such as a pan, or a sharp knife.

The boning knife and pan that were flying around the kitchen chasing Goofy and Martin were controlled by the ghost baby in this way.

In addition, the ghost baby can also throw objects controlled by it violently and launch long-range attacks.

This little monster is good at Precision Shot and Rapid Fire, has advantage on throwing attacks, and can throw two items per round - like two burning logs.

This should be the ghost baby's strongest attack method.

"Brother, where did that ghost go?"

Martin was shocked and looked around.

"He's hiding in the d'Urbervilles and won't leave easily."

"Can you find his hiding place?"

"Yes, yes, but we are not busy looking for him now." Gao Fei explained to his partner, "Undead creatures like ghosts are the product of the fusion of resentment and negative energy, and are also called 'missing bodies'."

"Well, I don't read much, so you might as well speak more clearly."

"In other words, the ghost has no material entity, and there is no point in destroying it physically. As long as its resentment remains, it will reappear after a while."

"Is there any way to completely eliminate this ghost?" Martin asked.

"Yes, there is. For example, if we try to understand the cause of the ghost and help him resolve his resentment, he will ascend to heaven safely."

"Hey, I don't want to provide psychological counseling to the ghost baby. Is there an easier way?" Martin scratched his head in distress.

"The easier way is to go to the church, donate a few gold coins, ask the priest for a bottle of holy water, then find the ghost's burial place, sprinkle the holy water on the grave, and neutralize the too strong negative energy in the graveyard, which is equivalent to Cutting off the ghost's source of life can also completely eliminate it."

"I think this is a good idea." Martin added weakly, "If we can afford a donation that satisfies the priest..."

"Don't worry, Father Gallup alone has raised the conscience and moral level of our entire neighborhood a lot."

"I heard that the priest rejected the inheritance his mother left him, which shows that he is not a money-grubbing person." Gao Fei said optimistically.

As it turns out, he was overly optimistic.

The parish priest, George Gallup, with a pipe in his left hand and a tin flask in his left hand, went out to greet the two visitors in person.

"Oh, aren't these our two great detectives from Pipe Street?"

Father Gallup, a tall man with a red face, smelled of alcohol and laughed.

"You are welcome to come to worship. It would be better if you donate a small amount of money! On behalf of all the poor children on this street, I would like to thank these two gentlemen for their generosity!"

"No... Father, we haven't decided to donate money yet! Don't be too busy saying thank you!"

Martin was a little annoyed and felt morally kidnapped.

"You mentioned poor children just now. That's very good. Merciful priest, don't you see that Roger and I are also poor children?"

"If we have no food in the future, we will come to the church to ask for alms. Merciful priest, you will not let us starve, right?"

"There is no problem with a simple meal." The priest glanced at Martin, "We only provide black bread and water here. Look at your rich figure... Tsk, tsk, I'm really worried that you will starve and lose weight."

"Father! I must solemnly declare that I have gained weight not because I am eating and drinking all day long and have excessive nutrition!"

"In fact, as my friend Roger said, I have the kind of physique that 'drinking cold water will make you fat'. What can I do?!"

Martin's face was full of grief and anger.

If he really got fat because of eating big fish and meat, he would have nothing to say, but he didn't eat anything good.

For example, for today's breakfast toast, I can only use "seasoning skills" to bring out the taste of grilled lamb chops and deceive my stomach. In this way, I can still grow meat. How can I make sense? !

"Oh? Can you gain weight by drinking cold water? It's interesting, Mr. Page, how about you perform a show for me?"

The priest's face was filled with amusement.

Martin glared angrily: "You drink rum yourself and let me drink cold water. Your conscience will be greatly damaged!"

The priest seemed to realize that as a priest, it was not very decent for him to drink rum in front of his guests, so he sneered to cover it up:

"Mr. Page, you are mistaken. This is not rum, but a bottle of rum-flavored soda water. It is a small gift from my niece. Girls like these fancy snacks. It's really There's nothing you can do about her!"

"Oh, merciful Lord, please open your eyes and take a look! This priest can lie in public without even blushing. He is so thick-skinned!"

Martin's face was full of contempt.

"Hiccup..." Father Gallup burped and said nonchalantly, "This soda water really gives a full flavor of rum, it's so magical!"

"Give me a taste!" Martin stretched out his hand.

"No! I've already drank it all!"

The priest quickly stuffed the flask into his pocket.

Gao Fei looked at this careless uncle and couldn't help but laugh secretly as he never expected that the heroine's uncle would have such a personality.

He touched his pocket, took out a crumpled five-dollar gold bill, and handed it to Father Gallup.

Father Gallup took the banknote and looked at it carefully to make sure it was genuine, with a kind smile on his face.

"Oh, kind children! May the glory of the Lord illuminate your future!"
