Chapter 16: Assassination
The monster on the ground, though humanoid, was more of a beast, with feet like hooves, a face like a dog, pointed claws, gray skin and disgusting fungus, and a rag wrapped around its waist to cover its private parts.
It was pierced by Lu Li's shadow, pressed against the top of the cave, made a sound like crying, grew its mouth in pain, showed its full mouth of fangs, and its whole face became more like a dog, in fact, this creature's habits are indeed the same as those of a sideburn dog.
Lu Li didn't know that this creature was called a ghoul, and it was also a member of the human race a long time ago, they believed that the human body had a powerful energy, and through the feeding ritual, eating the corpses of the same kind, they could gain great power, and over time, their human identity mutated, and became this monster called ghoul, gaining great strength and a long life, but they themselves became extremely ugly, and at the same time they were afraid of the sun's rays, and this society was dominated by humans after all, so they had to hide in the shadows, mostly in the sewers of the city, or in the caves of the wilderness。
It's just that Lu Li doesn't need what these monsters are now, since that accident, he basically doesn't feel negative emotions, but these negative emotions don't disappear out of thin air, but are backlogged, the memories in the water before, once again aggravate Lu Li's negative emotions, this time after being secretly manipulated by a witch, that kind of unhappiness is a lead, and Lu Li's negative emotions are directly ignited.
A one-person shadow rose into the air, wrapped the ghoul, poured the shadow from the ghoul's mouth and nose, and then formed into a series of staggered long thorns, piercing the ghoul from the inside, turning into a blooming thorn flower, dark green blood dripping from the ghoul's wound, without shadow support, it naturally fell from the top of the cave, and fell in front of Lu Li, because of the perennial eating ritual, its vitality is extremely tenacious, very similar to the dog's mouth screaming like crying, as if it is transmitting some message, this monster has wisdom......
Lu Li stepped over the ghoul's body and continued to walk forward, the shadow in the ghoul's body underwent a second transformation, squeezing its body into a broken sack, and the shadow returned into a mass and returned to Lu Li's feet.
Walking through here, the cave became wider, there was a running sound in front of him, two ghouls ran on all fours, with a rapid cry from their mouths, the eyes full of resentment, staring at Lu Li, let out a roar and pounced on Lu Li, a pair of black and red claws touched the corpse and fungus all year round, as long as humans are scratched, the wound will be infected, and even infected with some ghoul habits, after death, the body may be resurrected as a newborn ghoul, which is also one of the methods of ghoul formation, of course, the success rate is extremely low。
Lu Li didn't stop, walking forward, two shadow assassins suddenly appeared behind the ghoul, turned their hands and stabbed the ghoul heart from behind with a short knife, and then the two assassins released the short knife with the same action, the pace was weird, and they left the ghoul in an instant.
The two ghouls were in the same position behind them, with the same short knives inserted, after the shadow assassin left, the short knives instantly shattered, turned into shadows and dissipated, dark green blood erupted directly from the wounds, the two ghouls ran away for a while, and fell down in front of Lu Li, raising their heads with difficulty to look at Lu Li who had not stopped, and the shadows on the ground stabbed them, piercing them from the throat and completely dying.
The Shadow Assassin's weapon was originally supposed to be filled with items such as steel to spawn, but Lu Li was filled with a shadow, and although the shadow blade formed was not as hard as a steel weapon, it could be re-transformed into a shadow and returned to the shadow assassin's hand when it was extremely sharp.
The shadow assassins were once again drowned in darkness, they didn't make a single sound or breath, their stealth ability, because of the shadow body, was improved again, if Lu Li didn't have a secret connection with them, it is estimated that they would not be able to find their location.
There was more and more commotion in the cave, and Lu Li finally began to get serious, the steps under his feet began to become weird, and a shadow rose from the ground, wrapping Lu Li, leaving only the position of his eyes, ears and nose, and the next moment Lu Li disappeared completely, and no trace or breath was revealed.
The shadow assassin's stealth ability does not involve any mysterious means, just a special way of action, with Lu Li's control of himself, he can completely imitate and learn, with the assistance of the shadow, he will not do worse than the shadow assassin, or even better, because of his ability to control himself, his wisdom is stronger than the shadow assassin.
An unknown number of ghouls are running, some of them are standing upright, some are on all fours, breathing rapidly, their dog-like noses search for the smell in the air, and the eyes that can see at night are also constantly observing, but unfortunately Lu Li is wrapped in shadows, and where a little is exposed, Lu Li also forcibly controls the pores there, not revealing a trace of breath, and the feet do not make any sound of movement, and the darkness is integrated, even if the ghoul can see at night, he can't find Lu Li, and can only roar impatiently where Lu Li finally disappears.
Silently, Lu Li moved behind a ghoul, between movements, from nothing, from non-existence to existence, strong negative emotional catharsis, obviously in the dark, but at that moment it was so conspicuous, the shadow that wrapped Lu Li's hand changed into spikes, poked into the ghoul's ear, and destroyed the monster's brain instantly, the dark green blood bloomed, the body retreated, avoiding being contaminated by the dark green blood, and Lu Li disappeared again.
The shadow assassins also kept attacking, assassinating this monster called ghouls, a group of ghouls seemed to be blind, invisible enemies were constantly killing their kind, they were terrified, panicked, but to no avail, the enemies from the shadows would not stop him.
The last ghoul fell, the shadow turned into tentacles and returned to Lu Li's body, the shadow that covered his body turned into a plane, and some dark green blood fell to the ground because of the disappearance of the shadow, there were more ghouls, and Lu Li may not be able to avoid the blood sprayed out, in fact, there is no need to avoid it, because it is sprinkled with ghoul blood, even if it is contaminated, it will not expose itself because of the smell.
Although the shadow magic power in the body has been replenished because of the dark environment, the actions of the two shadow assassins have also consumed most of it, and after it is determined that the ghoul is dead, the shadow assassin will turn into black smoke and dissipate, returning to the shadow of Lu Li.
