Chapter Seventy-Six: Ghouls and Traps
Mercer City, suburb, outside George Way Village.
Tang Qi lowered his head slightly, his steps hurriedly, and walked by the not-so-bright moonlight, flanked by gloomy woods, the kind of trees that were very thick and densely foliage, which might look better during the day, but look very gloomy in the middle of the night, as if they would burst out at any moment to devour monsters.
Especially in the direction where he went, just ahead, gray, cold and moist fog filled the air, and he could only vaguely see patches of dark woods, gentle slopes, slopes, roadsides, and some hollows, all covered with some "tombstones" like things.
In fact, that's the tombstone.
Georgeway Village was founded by the first generation of pioneers and gold diggers, and it is certainly a peaceful place for the first to die.
However, with the opening of the "Mercer Cemetery", it has long ceased to accommodate new guests, and the living residents have moved away, so that it has become very desolate, and no one will come except for some homeless wanderers, or lonely old people, and some adventurous, that is, dead-minded young people.
Especially, at this point in time.
Tang Qi came here to test and feel his new abilities.
In the city, the number of weirdness may be more, even more powerful, and it is more powerful as fuel, but it is obviously not easy for Tang Qi to let go of himself, and some means are not easy to use, so there are not so many scruples here.
Soon Tang Qi walked into the messy cemetery, most of the tombstones, in fact, are a square-shaped stone tablet, inlaid on the ground, a few extravagant ones, only a few more stones were used, but most of these first-generation brave people did not even have descendants left, so that no one cleaned and offered flowers.
Occasionally, one or two can see some shriveled flowers.
Tang Qi walked for about ten minutes and saw a small wooden house, the kind that had been abandoned, which should have been inhabited by the original tomb keeper.
I didn't go in, but I glanced at the broken window outside, the owner left in a hurry, many things were still there, and even there were pillows and quilts on the bed, but they were all rotten, and there was a shovel on the messy ground, a small iron pot, and inside were a few black lumps of things, probably potatoes.
"That's it, I hope it's not too scary, I don't like thriller movies the most. ”
Tang Qi said a cold joke to himself, and then his gaze fell on the back of his left hand.
Airplanes!
A thought touched there.
The familiar scene reappeared, the mark of "doom" appeared little by little, and the ominous aura began to waft out. Lowering his arm, Tang Qi let the aura of doom spread, and began to walk around the cabin, surveying the terrain, while silently counting in his heart, the last time in Newton, he made a big mistake.
underestimated the power of doom too much, so that it attracted too many "weirdness", if it weren't for the appearance of a Thrand double-knife man, what Tang Qi would have to face at that time would definitely be the end of being besieged.
This time, Tang Qi strictly controlled the time.
One minute!
Soon, the time limit was up.
Tang Qi's thoughts spread over and he wanted to close the mark.
But at this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from behind.
Behind?
Inside the cabin?
Tang Qi quickly closed the mark, his body was a little tense, he turned around suddenly, his eyes looked through the broken window, and he instantly saw the source of the abnormal noise.
The floor of the cabin suddenly shattered, the black dirt was turned over, and a rickety, old figure crawled out of the ground, its clothes had long since rotted, the skin of its whole body was shriveled, clinging to the bones, there was a kind of rubber texture, half of the hair was rotten, and some of it hung on the skull.
Under the moonlight, Tang Qi saw that it had a dog-like face, horse-like feet, a pair of sharp claws, and green eyes staring at Tang Qi, making a dense and dense crying, unsettling and disgusting sound.
"It's ...... Ghouls?"
When Tang Qi was talking to himself, a faint glow converged, and a picture was quickly generated under Tang Qi's eyes.
[Extraordinary: Ghoul. 】
[Status: Hungry.] 】
[Information fragment 1: It is so ugly and disgusting, unsettling and disgusting, who would have thought that it was once a member of the human race, a respectable grave keeper, until one day it completely abandoned its dignity and finally ate the first bite of expired human flesh. 】
[Information fragment 2: Because of Georgeway's downfall, it has been starving for decades, and because of the return of the spirit tide, it has regained some strength, and has recently been preparing to move. 】
Fragments of information flowed by, and Tang Qi's pupils shrank suddenly.
If memory serves, ghouls, all live in groups?
With Tang Qi's thought, with the cabin as the center, the surrounding cemeteries, or simply the open space, suddenly there was a sound of "bang ~ bang bang", the dirt splashed, and one by one humanoid monsters crawled out of the ground, the image was exactly the same as the grave keeper ghoul who was struggling to break through the wooden house at this moment and tried to pounce on Tang Qi.
A pair of green eyes quickly surrounded Tang Qi.
Moreover, around this area, there were some strange noises in all directions, and some strange figures were rushing towards here.
Call!
In the air, the smell of disgust is getting stronger and stronger.
On the back of Tang Qi's neck, the hairs stood upside down, which was a sign of danger.
The "weirdos" who were tempted by the breath of the mark of doom finally arrived.
The most anxious is undoubtedly the grave keeper ghoul in front of him.
The first bite of a good meal should be it.
No, it's all about it.
Just as the grave keeper ghoul was thinking about taking that part of Tang Qi's body, he didn't see the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, and muttered, "Although it looks a little disgusting, it should be enough to use it as a trap." ”
As soon as the words fell, Tang Qi took a step abruptly, and actually took the initiative to open the door of the cabin, and walked in directly before the stale smell wafted out.
"Ah~"
"No, help. ”
"Get out of here, you goddamn monster. ”
......
Hearing the sound of "the feast starts", the rest of the ghouls who had just broken through the ground rushed impatiently, and they ran like the most notorious and disgusting spotted hyenas in the Sahar, eating in groups.
But when their rubber-covered heads crowded in front of the leaky wooden house, they saw a salivating and confused companion, and the "big meal" disappeared without a trace. Because they have been hungry for decades, they don't have much brain left, so they don't make any inferences about what they see in front of them.
They only relied on instinct to sense that the companion in front of them still had that incomparably tempting aura remaining.
Companion, what's that?
Can I eat it?
The answer is, yes.
"Woo~"
"Woohoo"
The sound of sobbing sounded one after another, and in the moonlight, in front of the leaky wooden house, ghouls scrambled to squeeze in, their foul-smelling mouths open, encompassing almost all parts of the grave keeper ghoul.
And all around the earth, all kinds of strange things floated over, and they were just as eager.
The feast is about to begin.
