60. Clever monsters?

The monster resembled a hunchbacked deformed man, with a rotting stench all over its body, and its skin was no longer grayish-white, but reddish-brown, with patches of black markings on it.

Its eyes were pitch black, barely visible pupils, and they were full of bloodlust, madness, and endless cruelty.

It is at least twice as large as a normal ghoul, and if it does not open its terrifying mouth, its face is seven or eight points similar to that of a human.

It runs like a beast on all fours and moves very quickly.

In appearance, it looks like a tall human with a rickety body and knotted muscles, but it is very agile, coming and going like flying, and moving like electricity.

In addition to its sharp black claws and mouth full of rotten yellow teeth, it is even more creepy that it is covered with sharp bone spurs on its back, and even on its head.

These sharp bone spurs are long and short, generally no more than 30 centimeters, the thickness of the fingers, densely spread on the back, looking at the scalp numb.

When the giant ghoul leans down entirely, it transforms into a large hedgehog, making it difficult for enemies to speak.

Geralt uses the Alder Seal to take down the first ghoul and complete the lore before the other monsters arrive.

The violent death of his subordinates made the wise ghouls angry and fearful at the same time.

This time, instead of charging ahead as before, it ordered the remaining ghouls to go up and fight in groups, ready to find an opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the enemy.

The ghouls followed their 'masters' around the sawmill like dogs being walked, and the giant ghouls, looking for opportunities in the outer ring, soon came to Huck to hide.

Seeing that the monster was right in front of him, Huck immediately stepped out from behind the pile of wood, and then pushed the newly finished Ark Sigil out of his hand when the giant ghoul looked back in shock.

The mysterious rune shone with a faint white light, imprinted into the monster's dark and faint eyes, and at the moment when the effect of the magic seal took effect, it was obvious that its body was stunned.

The bloodthirsty and crazy eyes also showed confusion and hesitation due to the effect of the magic seal, and a look of fear that should not have appeared crept up on its ugly face.

The monster shook its head, trying to wake itself up, and the bone spurs on its back began to retract rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, they all retracted back into its body.

Now is the time!

Taking advantage of the moment the giant ghoul was temporarily controlled by magic, Huck quickly stepped forward, and the silver sword that dragged behind made a half-arc from his head, and went straight to the monster's neck with a thousand mighty menaces.

The silver light that crossed the corner of his eye made the ghoul instinctively feel dangerous, and although it was still not completely free from the effect of the seal, it instinctively took a step forward.

The silver sword slashed hard at the monster's hips, pulling out a long wound, blood gushing wildly, white smoke rising from the flesh, and a 'zizi' sound.

The sharp pain caused it to let out an angry roar, and the confusion in its eyes instantly subsided, and madness and bloodlust surged up again.

The monster nimbly turned around and faced the enemy in front of it, its eyes full of bitter hatred and cruelty.

The massive wound didn't seem to affect its movements at all, and instead of taking a hard hit, the giant ghoul took a few steps back and began to wander around the enemy.

The young witcher had fought with ghouls and knew that the most striking trait of this monster was that it was difficult.

When injured by a heavy hit and unable to escape or dodge attacks, it will go into frenzy mode, attacking everything in sight indiscriminately.

If it doesn't have to fight hard, it will choose to swim around its prey, use its super resilience to quickly repair wounds, and then wait for the opportunity to fight again.

Ordinary people have almost no chance of winning when encountering ghouls, and even knights who are experienced in combat may be consumed alive by it as long as they can't complete a one-hit kill.

Not to mention, as the most powerful boss in the 'Auspicious Three Treasures', they almost always appear in groups and are good at group fighting.

Despite his mental preparations, Huck was still a little frightened when he saw the giant ghoul move so quickly.

Sure enough, the monster doesn't have a fuel-efficient lamp, especially these subspecies creatures that have begun to have wisdom and strength, and they are notoriously difficult and dangerous.

After several quick sword moves in a row to no avail, the witcher stopped chasing, but turned and ran towards the back of the log yard.

The giant ghoul's wounds had begun to close, and he was about to recover completely, but at this moment, when he saw that his prey suddenly turned around and wanted to escape, he was willing to let it go, and immediately chased after it.

The sun was strong, there were no trees near the yard, and although there was still fog drifting over due to the proximity to the forest, the view was still quite clear.

Turning the corner of the log yard, the giant ghoul was surprised to find that there was no one in front of him, except for a few tall parsley plants standing among the weeds, swaying in the wind and mist.

It shrugged its nose and didn't smell anything suspicious, the place where the abominable human was standing was downwind.

The monster watched vigilantly from side to side while listening carefully to the sounds around it, its long, sharp black nails clenched at the ground, ready to strike its prey with a fatal blow.

Several seconds passed, and nothing happened.

The prey seemed to disappear into thin air, without any movement.

Is it already running?

Thinking of this possibility, anger immediately surged wildly into my heart.

The giant ghoul became extremely irritable and impulsive, and after no one could hurt himself, he left as if nothing happened, no one could~

The monster, controlled by the bloodlust and anger that occupied his heart, turned around and prepared to pick up the first human to appear with his men.

At this time, it felt that if it didn't tear something apart, it would definitely explode on the spot!

The moment it turned, the mutation abruptly occurred.

The silver brilliance suddenly appeared out of thin air in the mid-air on the right back side of the body, and the semi-arc sword light that was connected together was also mixed with a strange red light, and it went straight to the monster's waist with lightning speed.

Huck had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and he turned the corner, and as soon as he was out of sight of the monster, he immediately turned incognito and moved sideways.

The witcher had been standing still in the plough motion, waiting for the ghoul to reveal his flaws, and since he was downwind, he was not worried about the monster smelling him.

However, the monster is very vigilant, and has been vigilantly looking for traces of the enemy, and there is no chance at all.

Fortunately, the fog stealth skill is quite powerful, and it has not found itself in a stealth state from beginning to end.

Seeing that the giant ghoul had given up the search and was about to turn away, Huck decisively attacked.

The sudden attack seemed to catch the monster off guard, and the majestic silver sword hit the target without any suspense, slashing heavily on its back.

"When~"

A sound of gold and stone came, which made the witcher frightened and screamed badly.

The violent tremor from his hand was not at all like cutting into the flesh, but more like slashing on a hard stone.

At the moment of being attacked, the cunning monster turned its head abruptly like an uncertain prophet.

Got you!

I don't know if it's an illusion, but for a moment, Huck actually saw a very anthropomorphic expression on the face of the giant ghoul.

There was a hint of cunning in the dark and murderous eyes, and there was a chilling smile on his face...
