Chapter 212: Ghoul Factory
Han Dong's right arm was essentially a "ghoul arm" no matter what kind of transformation it had undergone afterwards.
When in contact with ordinary ghouls, even if Han Dong had just killed a ghoul, there was no resonance or even a homeostatic reaction generated.
When he currently stepped into the ghoul's lair, his right arm trembled slightly due to resonance.
Indirectly, it means that there might be a real ghoul or some individual that can connect with a ghoul down here, the danger is self-evident.
[Disguise Enhancement]
Through subjective control, Han Dong strengthened the camouflage effect of the faceless head on the right arm, thus allowing the resonance effect to fade, so as not to be targeted by the big thing down here.
If the 'king' down here carried ghouls to the nest, the Formal Knight would also be in a bitter battle, or even be consumed by the tide of corpses.
"What's down here is definitely not simple, it's definitely much stronger than [Barber Charlie]."
Han Dong kept the "Plague Field" open at all times.
Being in such a fungus ravaging feeding nest, Han Dong could draw on pathogenic fungus to replenish his energy at any time, at least the plague energy was inexhaustible.
Ta.
As he stepped down the last level of stairs.
Han Dong was slightly stunned and couldn't help but mutter, "This lair, is a bit far from what I thought it would be!"
Ghoul.
This particular type of individual that existed accompanied by graveyard fungi.
In Han Dong's opinion, they were a group of individuals that did not possess high intelligence.
The corresponding lair should be a filthy cave filled with fungi, corpses and bones scattered everywhere, like a herd of beasts living in a cave.
However, the [Lair] that was shown to Han Dong completely overturned the original concept.
Rather than a lair, it was more like a regularly managed underground space.
The countless ghouls were in a special state of growth and dormancy through an oval-shaped sac membrane encapsulation, embedded in a stone wall full of fungus spots.
There is a pale pink, translucent membrane.
In the vesicle membrane layer also attached to the surface of the extremely tough structure, to muscle strip-like performance, covering the surface of the vesicle membrane, to isolate the internal 'dormant' ghouls from outside influences.
In addition.
The interior of the sac membrane is also filled with a special solution that resembles a vital substance (culture fluid).
Under immersion in this solution, the skin pores are maximally open, constantly drawing in the life substance.
It can catalyze and shape the body of the ghoul to the greatest extent possible, enabling it to grow into a strong and ferocious mature individual in a relatively short period of time.
Also.
Hoses are regularly arranged in the top area of the passageway, with each hose corresponding to a ghoul.
They are inserted against the wall, from the top of the vesicle.
From the back of the head, it was inserted into the ghoul's vertebrae, and injected with a highly pathogenic fungal fluid, making the rapidly ripening ghouls also possess a powerful plague infection ability.
This was simply a [Ghoul Factory].
And the scale down here was so large that the densely packed ghouls were tightly arranged on the walls through the sac membrane, and there was no end in sight.
It was as if they were cultivating an army.
"Where exactly do such a huge number of ghouls come from, does it mean that a matriarch exists!?"
Han Dong suddenly recalled a special kind of individual that the witch had mentioned when she lectured about the low-level life outside the city-[Matriarch].
An extremely reproductive mother body.
The matriarch usually occupies an enclosed area, such as an abandoned village or underground cave. It reproduces its offspring indiscriminately in the interior, and conceals the area through a kind of "mist".
Most of the matriarchs are at the level of a foreign demon, and are not encountered by the normal knight training.
Nightwatchman Jon was busy saying.
"[Matriarch] things don't need to be thought about, you won't be able to touch them.
The ghouls encased inside the sac are in an inactive state, so as long as we don't break the sac or tear the conduit attached to the backbone, they won't wake up no matter how loud we make.
What we are currently doing is a "night watch".
The purpose is to resolve uncontrollable emergencies and check and seal contamination "dead spots".
After we take care of the following, a team of trainee knights will come to the "Tomb Region" to carry out related tasks.
That is why,
Don't destroy the current area, including the ghouls inside the sac, except under special circumstances.
What we need to deal with are the 'people' roaming around here.
When resolving them, it must be quick and precise."
"Understood."
"Where do we go next?" Jon gave the choice of finding the "dead spot" to the two newcomers.
"Left!"
Han Dong did not hesitate to give directions directly.
"What is the basis of the judgment?"
"1. The concentration of contamination is slightly heavier on the left side than on the right.
2. the source of most of the liquid in the plague hose connecting the ghoul's spine also points to the left side.
3. slope problems. When going deeper into the catacombs, there is a downward slope with a small angle. Here, too, the left side slopes downward, while the right-side slopes upward.
The contamination "dead spot" should exist deeper in all probability."
Han Dong had only just arrived at the lair a short while ago, and he gave three strong judgmental bases in a row.
This immediately made Jon impressed the young man.
"You can directly capture the "pollution concentration"?"
"Well, the stitching combined with a special eye given to me by Mr. Black and White allows me to see more."
"Black and White, that's pretty good! Maybe you can actually assist me and find a few "dead spots" that are hidden."
For a moment, Jon set aside all these prejudices about the two newcomers possibly being troublesome, dragging their feet, and getting into danger, and began to take the current task seriously.
Moving forward in the direction Han Dong had determined through careful observation.
Around the corner.
A ghoul with four arms and strange spell stripes painted on its entire body crawled out.
Upon discovering the intruder.
The spell patterns on this ghoul's body immediately reflected a black glow, and there was even black smoke spilling out from between its claws.
The mobility was not at all on the same level as a normal ghoul, and immediately pounced on the crowd.
Its muscular arms unfolded, with cursed claws attached, as it looked to rip apart the intruder in front of it.
An unbelievable scene appeared.
With ordinary naked eye vision, one could only see a fleeting flash of shadow, as if it was a cheetah simply eating.
The ghoul that fluttered in mid-air was instantly subjected to over twenty deep slashes with a severe bleeding effect attached, green body fluids splattered on the ground and the surrounding surface of the sac membrane.
In seconds.
"Awesome!"
Han Dong's "little magic eye" saw what had just happened in a split second.
As the ghoul jumped at Nightwatchman Jon head-on.
Its cheetah-like body functions instantly exploded into a series of ultra-fast attacks.
Even at the same time, six claw shadows appeared in the air, instantly slicing the ghoul's deadly parts, including the heart, trachea, skull, and the vital connecting tendons of the limbs.
"You'll have to be quick next time, or I won't give you passage even if you can assist me in finding the "dead spot", It's not as easy as you think if you want to become a [Night watcher]."
