Ghouls, to put it bluntly, are also creatures. They are not magical creatures, and they are not like witches'' jokes. According to the mage''s research, this creature may have originated earlier than humans. It is mentioned in some documents that they are the fallen among the elves. They are driven out of the tribe because they eat flesh and blood, deviate from the tradition, are controlled by the desire to eat blood, and become beasts searching for meat all their lives. Some legends also record that their birth is related to vampires. A wrong conversion ceremony created these monsters which are completely different from the blood clan. Compared with the self styled elegant and rational vampires, ghouls are simply their opposite in temperament and image. This is why the blood clan never admits that they have any relationship with ghouls.
But, according to Clark''s manuscript that cheese saw in the grey tower library, perhaps neither of these guesses is true. Ghouls are a kind of wonderful species. Although they feel as cruel as sharks on land, they have a subtle characteristic. Different from non picky sharks, the food source of ghouls must be intelligent creatures. This is not to say that they don''t eat meat from livestock or other animals. It''s just that on the diet of ghouls, the flesh and blood of all the other animals are just side dishes to quell the thirst for blood. Their meals must be human, elves, dwarves or other species that can think and mostly possess civilization.
Civilization sweeper, this is the name of Ghoul that the mage saw from a certain document. They are like indicators to determine whether a race''s civilization is eligible to survive, and they have existed since ancient times. Interestingly, there are many groups of ghouls with thinking ability, such as soul watchers. However, these monsters have never established their own kingdom or regime. They seem to be very satisfied with being parasitic vines on the trees of other races. Contrary to their bloodthirsty nature, the ghouls'' inertia towards power and status is almost absolute.
As a result, cheese did not expect to face an insurgency by them one day. However, the current situation is beyond doubt. The news from Lothar and the devil''s action to the broker all point to the Edwards family. These meritorious officials who have contributed most to the defense of the royal capital have been determined to take control of the city under the instigation of the devil.
"Howl Along with the quayside and the bridge in the main city area, the ghouls, who finally got out of the brambles, roared angrily. Their completely red eyes were staring at Lothar standing on the bridge, and a large amount of saliva flowed from the gap between the teeth protruding from the lips. The count of black mountain looked at the enemy under the bridge by the moonlight. He moved his neck muscles. "I said these guys would not be reliable allies, just look at their patriarchs."
"Lothar, can you deal with these guys?" Cheese asked from behind. He had been able to relieve Elsa''s leg pain with precise methods in this short period of time. Now the landlady has initially recovered the ability to move.
The count glanced back at the mage. He knew what the cheese problem meant. As an arrogant fighter, his answer is of course more than enough. You can do your business. None of these guys can leave today The wizard nodded. He turned his head and looked at the nervous net worm. He took out a knife made of unknown biological bones from his grey robe. "It''s not as good as a sorcerer''s knife, but it can hurt them." With that, cheese threw the bone knife into the maid''s hand. The net worm took the weapon and waved it in his hand at will to confirm the weight and balance of the bone knife. At the same time, he nodded to thank the mage.
Cheese didn''t say anything more. He quickly recited a few syllables. Then he waved at Lothar and the net worm, and a little blue light appeared on them. "Without my continued casting, this protection won''t last long. Try to be quick. " With that, the master took Elsa''s hand and left from the other side of the bridge without looking back.
The ghouls didn''t want to let go of their prey. Almost as soon as cheese began to move, the guy at the front jumped to his feet. Look at the posture that he wanted to jump over Lothar and directly to the mage! "Hum!" Before the count''s hand, the maid swung her sleeve, and a small flying knife carved into the shape of spider fangs flew out of her hand and deeply stabbed the ghost''s chest until it had no handle.
Whether this throwing knife can really hurt the monster is not mentioned for the moment, but its power and net worm seize the delicate opportunity to successfully let the ghoul''s leap fall ahead of time. In the air lost power of the body straight down, and waiting for the landing point, is the hand of hern''s lion in the mouth of the blade! "Poof!" Without a scream, Lothar''s Tomahawk swung in a smooth arc until the hapless head rolled down in front of his other companions, and the headless corpse of the monster collapsed. "The first one, but not the last one tonight." The count of Heishan raised his foot and kicked the ghoul''s body off the bridge. "Hello! That''s a talisman my mother gave me! I haven''t pulled it out of that guy yet Before Lothar''s voice fell, the net worm had already put his finger through the gap in his armor and gave the count a severe twist. "Hiss! When I''m done, I''ll get it for you. " The latter took a breath and begged for mercy.
There''s no time to talk to two people in the fight, "roar!" The death of their companions did not frighten the ghouls. Driven by the frenzy of eating, they did not care about the sharp blade in front of them. These monsters pushed each other and came up from under the bridge! Lothar, who was low and faced with a large number of opponents, had no fear in his eyes. He was the count of Heishan, one of the most powerful fighters in the kingdom. "Black mountain!" The count called out the name of his family and clasped the handle of the axe with both hands, but did not wave hern''s hand. Instead, he hit the attacker''s mouth with his lower center of gravity and heavy iron plate on his shoulder!The fangs were on the armor, and with the sound of the bang, the hapless Ghoul found that he could no longer feel his teeth. "It looks like you have to go to a dentist." The count grinned grimly, satisfied with his masterpiece. He is very clear that if he attacks with the axe blade, he may be able to put down one or two enemies who rush in the front, but he will also be defeated by the subsequent opponents because he can''t close his moves. Therefore, Lothar cleverly chooses another tactic. With both hands, he slammed his opponent''s chin with the counterweight at the bottom of the axe handle of hern''s hand. The huge force made the ghoul fly backward!
"Howl While Lothar was taking care of the first enemy, the following ghouls had raided from the count''s right. However, the experienced soldiers had been prepared. They did not stop beating the first opponent''s Tomahawk, and continued to wave the axe. The blade of the axe was chopped down from left to right like a ghoul deliberately cooperating with Lothar''s chop! However, before the count drew out his weapon, the third Ghoul had already stretched out his claws against his defenseless back.
"Get out of here!" As a mercenary, she is also very experienced in combat. She flies up and kicks in an impartial attempt to attack the enemy on the back of Lothar, forcing the opponent''s hands to droop to protect her organs. However, the attack of the female mercenary did not end here. Unlike the count who was accustomed to open and happy, the net worm in leather armor enjoyed less protection, but also had more sensitive movements. Her first kick is just a prelude. The second fierce kick against the back of the enemy''s head is the real killing move! "Touch!" The iron covered boots make a dull noise when they hit the ghoul''s head, and the hard hit man falls to the ground decisively and faints.
"A beautiful blow!" When Lothar turned her head, she just saw the net worm''s action. The beautiful figure of the maid soldier was as charming as a fighting goddess in the moonlight. But the net worm didn''t take the count''s affection. The bone knife in her hand was handed to Rosa''s ear and stabbed into the palm of another ghoul. "Concentrate on fighting!" The maid, in a somewhat irritated tone, was angry at the count.
