Chapter 137: Small Town Horror - Gerdor
It was an undead creature taller than the ogre Moglock, who wore full-body armor.
Its entire body is made up of many fragmented corpses and blood**, with clear and dilapidated stitches, revealing its identity as a magical creation. At the junction between the corpses and the flesh, dark black blood and dark green pus continued to ooze out.
Not only that, but it also emitted a foul smell strong enough to make Barrett gause. You know, our barbarian adventurers have killed and dissected countless corpses, and their endurance in this regard is extremely strong, and they have long been accustomed to the bloody and rancid smell of leisure.
The undead creature held a blood-stained boning knife in its left hand and a rusty iron hook in its right hand. The iron hook was attached to a thick chain, one of which was wrapped around its bloated, dirty arm, and one dragged to the ground, rattling as it turned.
What shocked Barrett the most was that its huge belly had been disemboweled, and a terrifying huge wound that took up the entire belly had been opened! Although the wound had been sealed by several ribs of unknown creatures, the dark black, turquoise intestines inside were still clearly visible.
It has a protruding jaw and jagged teeth. The eyes are intact and half-squinted, and the appearance is extremely hideous and ugly, and I don't know why the aesthetics of its maker are so distorted.
Barrett had never seen or heard of such a terrifying undead creature, and as he hesitated whether to kill it or bypass it, the undead creature spoke, and in a well-rounded lingua franca.
"Hello. It greeted Barritt.
Barrett's eyes widened in surprise, "You, hello. "He has no experience talking to the undead.
"My name is Gerdor, and I'm an abomination. Its voice was thick and deep, "What is your name? ”
"Ba, Barrett" he didn't expect this terrible undead creature to be quite polite.
"Oh, hello, Barbarit. "Do you want to get through here to the town over there?" said Gerdor, the abomination," and it scratched its ass with its iron hook, then its head.
My name is...... Forget it, there's nothing to argue about, there's no point in arguing with an undead about your name. It's not easy for it to remember its own name, which means that its brain isn't rotten enough to be usable.
"Yes. Barrett replied. "What's the problem? Are you trying to stop me?"
"No, the master didn't give Gerdor such an order. "Gerdor remembers all what his master said!" said Abomination, 'Don't let the undead in the town run around, you know.' The master said, 'Especially don't let them swarm to the other side of the road, who knows if those mages who have strengthened the seal will be lazy in the future!' ”
"The master also said, 'When the whole space is repaired—who knows how many hundred years it will take to be repaired—then you will tell my name to that or to the mages who have come to repair the space, do you know?'" Then let them take you back to my mage tower, if those hairy boys don't kill you by then. ’”
Abomination was quite agile in mimicking his master's speech, "The master was leaving and said, 'Hey, Indar, do you want to stay here forever, you stinky boy? Hurry up, we've got to go.'" I've found a couple of interesting souls here these days, so I'd like to try some new experiments. Hurry up, stop being a beggar and be nostalgic for those negative energies, when you reach the high level, the plane of death will become your backyard, and you can go there whenever you want. Yes, I know it's far away, but you can learn how to craft the undead first. See, I'm going to name this kind of undead -- Abomination, isn't that apt! Maybe one day, you can make a kind of undead as perfect as Abomination. ’”
"The master thinks 'Gerdo' is perfect!" said Abomination, a proud expression on his face.
"Wait, you just mentioned a name, 'Indahl'? yes, I heard you right. Who is he?" Barrett asked, frowning. He didn't know if this 'Indar' was the same person as the 'Indar the Silencer' that resounded across the continent a few years ago.
"He was the master's apprentice. Hated Gerdo replied, "A very proud young man." But Gerdo didn't like him, because he always said that Gerdo was defective and didn't deserve the word 'perfect'. It flicked its hook angrily, and the chains rattled again, a piercing sound in the quiet of the night.
Barrett actually wanted to ask more about Indal, but on second thought, the guy was dead anyway, and it didn't help to inquire about his previous deeds. What's more, now is clearly not the time to talk about these things.
"Since your master didn't let you stop anyone from entering," he said, "then, I'll go?"
With that, Barrett planned to go around Gerdo on the left side and continue on his way.
Not far behind the abomination was the half-open gate of the town, where Barrett was headed. This monstrous undead creature seems to be a magical creation created by a mage, and Barrett doesn't know what its strength is, but since it was sent by the unknown mage to guard the door in this space, it must not be too weak. So he's glad he doesn't need to fight this big guy, because he doesn't have a lot of bottom in his heart.
However, the abomination suddenly shifted its bloated body and stood in front of Barrett, "But, Gerdo wants you to do me a favor. ”
Barrett didn't answer, but changed direction, trying to get around again. But the Abomination of Gerdo also followed his movements, and once again stood in his way.
This guy!!!!
Abomination smiled happily, which made its appearance even uglier, "Gerdo has been here for ......" It was suddenly stunned in the middle of speaking, as if it was stuck in a memory, and after a while, it spoke again in some frustration, "Gerdo can't remember, it's been a long, long, long time anyway." ”
"At first, there were some undead in that town who wanted to come out, so Gerdo ate them all, and Gerdo liked to eat meat, and rotten meat was the best! However, Gerdor's hooks are accurate enough to hook them out and eat. It shook the iron hook in its right hand and smiled, "After that, the undead will get farther and farther away from the gate, and they won't come closer." Gerdor's hooks aren't long enough to reach them. So, Gerdo was hungry and hungry for a long, long time. ”
It looked at Barrett and swallowed involuntarily, which caused the latter to subconsciously take two steps back and clench the weapon in his hand again.
"The master needs Gerdo to stay here, and Gerdo can't leave a single step!" said it solemnly, "So, I hope you can help Gerdo find some food." ”
"Then you'll have to let me go in first, won't you? "After all, the carrion you like is in the town." ”
"No, this, Gerdo actually wants to eat something else. A hideous smile appeared on his face again.
