16. Ghoul scourge monarch
Ghouls, a type of undead creature commonly found in the ruins of Nord, are said to have been members of the ancient Dragon Cult during their lifetime, but were cursed for betraying the dragon, and were not allowed to rest even after death. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ Most of them are easy to deal with, but there are exceptions, and these exceptions usually cost the lives of those who trespass into the ruins!
Of course, some unlucky guys, even if they don't need the help of those powerful ghouls, will die under various traps in the ruins, such as Avir, who was just let go by Asa and Hamia, the dark elf who deliberately lowered his footsteps as he passed through the hall where the ghouls were sleeping, hoping that these ghouls would be able to drag Asa after them. Unfortunately, he was so proud that he didn't notice the mechanism under his feet at all, and a spiky door pierced several bloody holes directly in his body. Not only did he lose his life, but he also woke up the sleeping ghouls in the hall, which was really harmful to others and not to himself.
Fortunately, these three or four ghouls were all miscellaneous fish level, and Asa and Hamiya cleaned them up in three or two.
"Wow, there's a golden dragon claw, and this guy didn't completely lie to us. He also has a notebook on him, and you can see what is written on it. "The dark elf seemed to know something, and in order to get more clues, even though this guy died a terrible death, Asa had to do the job of searching for the body. Fortunately, the result did not disappoint him, and he did find the golden dragon claw and a notebook mentioned earlier.
"I'll take a look," Hamiya took the notebook, and as soon as she opened it, she couldn't help complaining: "What a broken word, it's so ugly!" β
"I said, Princess, don't be disgusted with this, a robber is good to be literate......"
"Got it, got it...... Well, this guy's original name was Avir, and he didn't seem to be writing anything useful. Oh, and he says he stole the dragon claw from a shop in Brookwood, and says that he can feel the power of the ancient Nord hero when he holds it in his hand. β
"Hey, I didn't feel anything! Stolen from a country store? Why does it feel so worthless all of a sudden? β
"Who knows, it's written on it that this dragon claw seems to be able to open some door, and it's nothing anyway, so we'll take it with you."
"That's right, let's go, I don't know what else awaits us...... Belch. Asa suspected that he had been infected by Hamia's crow's beak, otherwise how could he have just finished speaking, and when he turned around, he saw a seemingly capable ghoul standing there?
γFrost Techniqueγ
This ghoul is really difficult, and he can even use spells with a sword in one hand and the other hand! If you've studied ghouls, you'll know that this guy is actually an enhanced version of the ghouls - the ghouls who can't rest in peace! Asa and Hamia hurriedly dodged, and Asa immediately fired a fire bullet after gaining a foothold, but to his surprise, the ghoul who couldn't rest in peace actually split the fire bullet in half with a single sword!
"Drink, !!" Hamia's horizontal slash was also blocked by it, but Hamiya changed her move quickly, and directly slashed along the sword body to the right palm of the ghoul holding the sword, and the middle three fingers of the ghoul's right hand were suddenly cut off, and he could no longer hold the long sword, but the ghoul was an undead creature, so naturally he didn't feel any pain, and Hamia, who didn't expect this, suffered a blow to his right face!
"Haa!!!a But instead of hitting the little princess, this punch provoked her anger, roared, and stabbed the ghoul in the chest with a flying sword, and when it landed, a spinning side kick almost kicked the ghoul to pieces.
"Haha~~" As a result of this rather difficult ghoul, Hamiya felt a sharp pain on the right side of her face at this time, and couldn't help covering her face and began to gasp.
"Hey! Are you okay! Asa was also shocked by the little princess's brave performance, and now she came back to her senses when she saw the little princess looking in pain, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
"It's okay, it's just ugly...... Hamiya's right cheek is swollen throughout, and there are many abrasion marks, obviously the "bone fist" is more lethal than the flesh fist. Seeing that the little princess was obviously in pain and contempted from time to time, but she still wanted to keep herself from looking at it for the sake of her image, Asa couldn't help but be a little funny.
Of course, he didn't dare to laugh at the moment, so he could only coax and say, "Show me, I won't laugh at you, you also know that I can do some healing, and I will be able to help you reduce your swelling soon." Clamour! Do you want me to stop being swollen for a long time? Or do you want me to look at it and swell for a while? β
"This ...... Well, well, if you dare to laugh, be careful that I gouge out your tongue! Thinking of Asa's previous technique of treating her foot injury, Hamia hesitated, and finally chose to have a long pain rather than a short pain.
"I understand, I understand, let me see, well, it's okay, this ghoul has no poison on his hands, it's just an ordinary abrasion, and it will be fine soon~~" Asa gently covered Hamia's right cheek with both hands, and his hands gradually glowed with a soft golden light, and after a while, Hamia's cheeks were as smooth as ever.
"Okay~~ The big beauty is back again, let's keep walking!"
"Hmph~~ Count you as acquaintances!"
Hamia didn't notice the cold glint in Asa's eyes as she turned her head.
For the rest of the way, the two of them did not encounter any danger at all, and the ghouls who stood in the way were not worth mentioning at all in front of the fire elemental and frost summoned by Asa, and even the occasional ghoul or two who could not rest in peace were smashed to pieces by the "ice fist" of the frost element. The mechanism along the way was also dissolved by Asa's magic and wisdom, and the two made their way to a large iron door carved with strange patterns.
"I'll go, this ruin is really not simple, even the ancient Arold code door is equipped?" Asa knocked on the iron door in amazement, as if feeling something new to the thing.
"What? You say it's a codegate? How do you open it? β
"I've only seen this kind of door in books, but I didn't expect it to be here, do you see these three patterned rings? These three are the cipher rings, and only now adjust the patterns on these three rings to the correct style, and then insert the key to open it, huh? The appearance of this keyhole is a little weird...... Have this kind of key? β
Feminine delicacy played a big role at this time, and Hamia stared at the strange keyhole in the middle of the iron door and said, "Hey, you think this keyhole doesn't look like the claws of the golden dragon's claws?" β
"How could it be...... It's really true that you say that! Taking out the golden dragon claw and comparing it was really tight, Asa couldn't help but get excited, and said: "Then you only need the correct password pattern to open this door, hey, this pattern is only 9 combinations!" Leave it to me! β
Looking at Asa who began to "decode" the work in full swing, Hamiya was a little speechless, and this speechless expression was not until Asa "deciphered" the code, and then Hamiya showed Asa the three patterns in the palm of the golden dragon claw before finally transferring it to Asa's face.

Fa Renga once said that the "dragon stone" was hidden in the main burial chamber, but this is not so much a burial chamber, Asa thinks it is a large karst cave. There is a high platform more than one person high dozens of meters in front of the two people, there is a fan-shaped stone wall with a peculiar shape on the high platform, there is a sarcophagus in front of the stone wall, two streams flow down from the two books of the high platform, the stream water is crystal clear, it should be pure mountain spring water. There was a stone bridge above the water, and when Asa and Hamia walked up to the platform, they found that the fan-shaped stone wall was carved with many ancient scripts that were not in use today, and several of them were glowing. Out of curiosity, the two of them planned to go in and take a closer look, and at this time, something strange happened, both Asa and Hamiya were sure that they had never seen the glowing ancient script, but after they got closer to a certain distance, they blurted out the correct pronunciation of the ancient script at the same time.
"Vos" *2
The two looked at each other, and blurted out again: "Do you understand? β
Asa scratched his head and wondered, "I've never seen these words, but somehow, I suddenly understood what the glowing words were reading just now." β
"Me too, me too! Well? Didn't these words shine just now? Why is it gone? Sure enough, as Hamiya said, the ancient characters that were glowing just now were no longer shining like other ancient characters.
"Maybe it's some kind of special magic, don't worry about this for now, let's look for the 'Dragon Stone' first, I don't know where it is?"
"Should it be ......" Looking around, Hamiya's face was a little ugly, and she pointed to the sarcophagus and said, "It won't be in there, right!?" β
"As soon as you crow's mouth says, I think it's eighty percent. Forget it, I'll get it, you crow's mouth will be a help if you don't say a word. β
"Damn!" Hamia was about to kick, and Asa laughed and dodged, but at this time, an ominous "snap" sound made the playful expressions on their faces turn into stunned, and they could only stare blankly at the terrible creature that crawled out of the sarcophagus, the ghoul Calamity Monarch!
As the name suggests, the commander of the ghouls, the undead monsters that bring blood and blood!
