Chapter 613: The Fox and the Hound (2) (Ask for a Recommendation Ticket!Ask for a Monthly Pass!)
Those who commit murderous sins, such as serial killers, massacre executioners, war criminals, and bloodthirsty war maniacs, will slowly be branded with such crimes throughout their lives. When these creatures with blood on their hands are dead, their remains may be resurrected as a demon corpse, standing up to continue their unfinished evil business.
Generally speaking, a guy who can become a demon soul corpse treats human life like a mustard in his lifetime, and after becoming an undead creature, a lone demon soul corpse will vent his killing intent to the living even more angrily. Although often mistaken for ordinary zombies or skeletons, Demon Soul Corpses are undoubtedly much more cunning and dangerous than these brainless undead. They possess a certain amount of intelligence and a special ability.
The living who are killed by the Demon Soul Corpse will immediately transform into a zombie derivation, and the clever Demon Soul Corpse will carefully preserve the zombie derivation under his control as a secret undead army. For example, if they lie motionless in the city's cemetery for weeks, he can summon these undead men to assist him in the slaughter when the demon corpse thinks the time is right.
And it is precisely because of this ability that the Demon Soul Corpse will be valued by more advanced undead creatures. As long as you create a demon soul corpse and give it enough time to develop, then it can create an army of zombies on its own. The liquefied portable "Undead Scourge" spell given to Quest by the half-lich Snead is based on the creation of demon corpses, which in turn summons more undead.
However, Puu, the half-sheep who is a strong bird, also reminded Quest that unlike in the "rural places" of the material plane, the residents of Seal City are used to seeing big scenes. Not to mention that mortals are always born, old, sick and die, many people in the Seal City have dealt with the Ten Thousand Dead Society to a greater or lesser extent, and some have even accepted the funeral outsourcing business provided by the Great Morgue. Therefore, those demon soul corpses can only cause a small riot at most, and they will not be able to make any splashes at all, and they will be cleared by the major associations.
As for Puu's suggestion, Quest did agree with it. Not to mention whether summoning the Demon Soul Corpse can create enough turmoil in the Seal City, even if it can have an effect, they probably won't be able to gain a foothold in this Gate City in the future, so the young blue dragon is not inclined to use the bottle of liquid given by Snead at will. But in the spirit of being prepared, he still brought a bottle of liquefied "Scourge of the Dead". I didn't expect that when sneaking into the wheel of fortune, it just came in handy.
"Anyway, it's just a demon soul corpse that appears in the wheel of fortune, and the riot won't spread to other places. Unless the Judge Demon gives up her inheritance, she will have to deal with the trouble obediently, and she will not be able to alarm the others," as he walked through the corridor, Quest pondered his next move, and now it seemed that perhaps his stealth could continue, "Anyway, compared to me, those goblins will make more noise with the demon corpses. ”
And it was exactly as he expected. Chased by the frenzied bears, several goblin guards of the Wheel of Fortune fled in a hurry, and it didn't take long for them to run into the low-end consumer lobby. Their chases disturbed many customers who were placing bets. Naturally, the casino's security system reacted immediately. A large number of guards: goblins, goblins, as well as orcs and tiflins, all ran over, and they quickly surrounded the bear man between several tables.
"Pap", "Pap", "Pap", ......
From the office at the top of the casino, there was the sound of a leather whip smashing flesh. The goblins who were scurrying with their heads were now brought to Shemikasha. The underworld queen showed no mercy to those who dared to mess with her business, and she plucked a razor vine from her headdress and smoked the goblins into rolling gourds.
"Clean up that bear man, don't let it transform back, and tell me that it was overturned by these thieves. Remember, the Wheel of Fortune is a beacon in the Ladies District, and we weren't, we're not, and we won't be a black shop!" Shemisaka let out a rare growl, and all of her men in her office were silent, "Also, chop up these damn goblins and feed them to my Night Mastiffs, so they can digest these guys who are not even as good as dogs!"
Ignoring the goblins' pleadings for mercy, Shemisaka waved her hand, and the tall Tifflin walked out of the office with the guys in tow. There was even a mage attendant who casually performed a "magic trick" to clean up all the blood stains on the ground. The underworld queen rubbed her forehead and paced to the floor-to-ceiling windows of her office, looking down at the casino lobby through the one-way mirror, observing the guards below as they fought the bears.
Although the guards were forced to leave the table due to their timely response, many of the brave gamblers had not yet left the wheel of fortune. They just stayed around, waiting to get back to the tables, watching the excitement. Seeing this, Shemikasha suddenly had an idea, "Let those guards tell everyone one by one that this is the entertainment of the Wheel of Fortune." In addition, open a new game of betting, and the content is how many people the bears can beat. ”
I really have to admit that this underworld queen is indeed very witty, and she lives up to her fox appearance and reputation. In just a few minutes, she came up with an excuse that would not only explain the sudden farce, but also make a gamble in passing. Although the guards need to fight the raging bears alone due to her decision, it is only a matter of taking a few lives, and this month's salary has not been paid yet, but it can save a lot of money.
"I bet he'll only hold on for two rounds!"
"It's only four rounds at most. ”
"I can't hold on to this bear man for a round!"
......
With Shemikasha's order, the atmosphere of the Wheel of Fortune became normal again, and many gamblers who were stimulated by the gambling game with red eyes and thick necks all ran to the dealer in high spirits. This atmosphere even spread to the private rooms of the high-end consumption area, and some of the big names of the Seal City, who rarely showed up easily, also participated, allowing their attendants to run to bet.
It's just that none of them noticed that at the gate of the casino, a staggering figure walked in. The half-orc demon soul corpse transformed by Quis has completed its metamorphosis: a cluster of strangely colored flesh buds and organs is coiled in the middle of the zombie's torso, and an alienated and elongated tongue sticks out from under the end of its skull, like a tentacle with claws.
"Fresh Flesh ......"
