236, goodbye ghosts, break into the fortress alone

"But in such a situation, you actually encountered this mutant zombie 'ghoul' on the road. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info" Ling Dan deliberately took out a zombie head and fiddled with it twice, "You're not a necromancer, you don't know how difficult it is to cultivate mutant zombies. If you come across a swarm of a dozen ghouls, it means there may be ...... around here."

Ling Dan didn't continue, but made a start for Hyde.

Hyde immediately grabbed the white and said, "Maybe those mutant zombies are fundamentally related to the cult we want to investigate?!" ā€

"Quite possibly." Ling Dan nodded slightly, and continued to induce Hyde's thoughts, "Then in this case, Curt can actually save Katrina and all of them back." Maybe he'......"

"Bastard!" Hyde was a little enthusiastic, "Curt must have wanted to get rid of me by tricks, so he first colluded with the cultists, and then intended to occupy Katrina!" I know that he has long since looked at me unpleasantly, and if it weren't for the fact that I didn't want to cause trouble, I would have taught him a lesson! ā€

Ling Dan looked at the relationship between Hyde and Katrina, probably because of Hyde's weak personality and the delay in progress. Now that Hyde has gone through life and death, it is the best time for him to reshape his heart. Now, Hyde, who has been cornered, seems to have finally ignited a trace of the blood that a man should have!

Ling Dan's speculation was not groundless. In the mission description, there are also some suggestive hints:

"Side Quest: Investigate the Cult Incident."

"Mission Description: A team of mercenaries who went to investigate the cult incident accidentally encountered a group of ghouls from the Scourge Legion. And the team of transferees who saved them also revealed a strange atmosphere. Perhaps investigating this team of transmutees first could help in finding out where the ghouls came from? Don't let the tragedy of Stratholme repeat itself in this world. ā€

Ling Dan checked the mission description and continued: "But we don't have any evidence, and all this is just our speculation. But we can't get into the fortress at this time. Anyway, Katrina, they should be safe at this time, why don't we go around and scout? ā€

Hyde naturally agreed.

What Ling Dan said was also not untrue. With the help of the stealthy ghost wolf's scouting, he has found a small col near the fortress - where the ghouls are hiding!

Ling Dan and Hyde crept over, and sure enough, they saw a black-robed man dressed as a necromancer carefully driving away several ghouls, who seemed to be quite obedient to his commands.

"It's Zach!" Hyde couldn't believe his eyes, "It's Zack, the necromancer from Curt's team!" How could he control these ghouls? Oh no! Could it be that this ambush was really commanded by him? ā€

Yes, the ghouls, who gave up the attack before, have not retreated, they are nearby! Moreover, they are under the control of Curt's men!

In this way, not only did Hyde confirm that Curt was the mastermind behind the ghoul ambush, but Ling Dan also confirmed the fact that Curt's team had fallen.

If Ling Dan made a move, naturally none of these transfer officers and ghouls would be slaughtered. But he can't do that right now.

It is unknown why Curt's men were able to control the ghouls.

Their intentions to use ghouls to contain this group of mercenaries are unclear.

Yes, containment, not siege.

With the strength of these ghouls and Curt's squad, it is not a problem to completely destroy this mercenary squad. But they simply drove the Iron Rose squad away, and even sat back and watched the squad retreat back to the fortress. Except for Hyde, who volunteered to come out and break off, everyone else was able to escape.

"Probably love killing." Ling Dan glanced at Hyde, "If Curt is really related to these ghouls of the Scourge, then he probably wants to take advantage of Hyde's psychology of sacrificing for Katrina, preparing to kill Hyde unknowingly, and then occupy Katrina." ā€

"However, how did they get on the line with the Scourge Legion, was it Marbury who was in the middle, or was it Curt that the countess found directly? Moreover, the mission statement hints at the 'tragedy of Stratholme'......"

Ling Dan shook his head, he still needed further investigation before he could confirm it.

Hyde suddenly whispered, "They're feeding ghouls!" ā€

Ling Dan saw that the group of Sinking Demons that had been hunted by some ghouls had all been carried here, and after those ghouls put down the corpses on their shoulders, they began to feast. Their wounds are also healing at a visible rate.

"The facts are right in front of you." Ling Dan patted Hyde on the shoulder and motioned for him to step back together. "Curt and his men must have something to do with your attack this time! However, we can't afford to act rashly yet! ā€

Hyde's eyes were red for dozens of seconds, and finally let reason suppress his desire for revenge, and he and Ling Dan slowly retreated.

"You calm down first." Ling Dan handed Hyde a bag of wine, "Why don't you listen to my plan first?" ā€

Hyde numbly took the wine sac, suddenly took a big sip, and said angrily in a low voice: "Lord Daniel, you saved my life. As long as your plan can slaughter Curt as a brute, I'll listen to you for everything! ā€

"Good!" Ling Dan slapped his thigh, "Then you can sleep here and follow us early tomorrow morning." ā€

Hyde was stunned for a moment: "I sleep? I'll follow ...... tomorrow You guys? ā€

"That's right." Ling Dan looked at the fortress from behind the grassy slope, "Curt's purpose is to get rid of you first, and then take over your Katrina, and that's definitely right. But if his target is only Katrina, he can kill you all with the ghouls and kidnap Katrina. ā€

"But all the time he just wanted me to die alone......" Hyde put down his wine bag, and seemed to be more and more sober the more he drank.

"Yes, you figured it out." Ling Dan motioned for Hyde to hide first, "This is simply a premeditated kidnapping!" ā€

"Kidnapping?!" Hyde was a little confused, "Why?" ā€

"I don't know why, so you'll have to wait for the answer to be revealed." Ling Dan boldly voiced his question, "Why are Curt's necromancers able to control these ghouls?" Why are they stopping your thousands of villages from investigating the cult incident? ā€

Ling Dan yawned: "If you want to know the answer, then sleep well first, and then follow them tomorrow." Anyway, your Katrina won't be in any danger in the fortress tonight, will she? ā€

"What about you?" Hyde took a spare set of sleeping bags thrown by Ling Dan and asked with a confused expression.

"Of course I'm going to sleep in the fortress, I guess they don't mind kidnapping one more necromancer with only two skeletons, right?" Ling Dan winked at Hyde, called out to Little Blue and Little Yellow, and swaggered towards the fortress. (To be continued.) )
