Chapter 7 Ghouls

Chapter 7 Ghoul

Concentrating his mind, Ren looked towards the mine tunnel shrouded in dim light.

These lights came from the moss clinging to the rock walls in the mine tunnel, allowing Ren to barely see the thirty-foot radius around him.

Ugly and twisted rock walls, mine tunnels leading to unknown places in the distance, stone pillars supporting the mine tunnels, and simple patterns carved on the mine tunnels.

These patterns have experienced the erosion of time, but it can still be barely recognized that they depict scenes of dwarves and gnome miners working hard.

Ren frowned, gave up the idea of ​​exploring in depth alone, turned around and pulled the rope hard.

In the mine, the Rockbreaker brothers, whose patience was gradually being worn away, suddenly all turned their attention to the ropes tied to the rock pillars.

I saw the rope tightening instantly, and then whipping against the almost vertical rock wall.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound suddenly sounded in the empty cave.

After stopping his brother who was about to speak with his eyes, Thorin the Rockbreaker's expression became serious.

After thinking for a moment, Rockbreaker Witte pointed to one of the mine tunnels.

It seems that this human cannon fodder has not used any crooked ideas and can still be used for a while, at least let him die where he deserves to die.

Rockbreaker Witte nodded with a sneer, grabbed the rope with his right hand, turned over, and slid down to the bottom of the pit.

"Witt, you go down the rope first, keep an eye on the human kid and don't let him be clever. I'll go down later."

Thorin the Rockbreaker smiled silently.

"I didn't see any movement inside."

If Ren's perception of 15 points is among the dwarves, he should be cultivated as the seed of a priest.

"Ten seconds...this mine tunnel is quite deep."

Highly sentient beings among humans?

Hearing Ren's words, Rockbreaker Thorin frowned slightly.

"It is possible, my dwarf brother!"

The perception of the dwarf race is generally not high. The perception of adult dwarves is generally between 9 and 10 points, which is considered to have just reached the passing line.

As for the skeletons with long canine teeth remaining, they obviously belong to wild creatures such as jackals.

"Good news, isn't it?"

"etc!"

Looking at the three gray-white figures squatting among the bones, searching and chewing, Ren murmured in his heart.

Well, he is only responsible for the final harvest.

His intuition reminded him that there was danger in these houses!

In the professional matter of prospecting and mining, even if ten humans were tied together, they would still be inferior to dwarves and dwarf subspecies.

"Am I going to harm my brother?"

The rope was whipped against the rock wall ten times before he completely regained his composure.

Scattered around the brazier are the skeletons of dwarves with broken armor hanging on their bodies.

"Be careful and you won't make a big mistake. As for that guy, we have plenty of time."

Hearing this familiar voice, Ren's heart trembled, and he hurriedly looked inside through the gap.

"Okay." After briefly appeasing his brother's emotions, Rockbreaker Thorin looked at Ren, his eyes full of warning.

Ren gently pressed his ear against the crack of the door, listening to the sounds in the room.

After passing the dilapidated guardhouse and killing a wandering ghost, the group of three came to a row of decaying houses.

In his plan, if he wants to eliminate the evil in the Phandalin Mines, he will need the great efforts of these two gray dwarf brothers from the lawful evil camp.

"Mr. Sri, are you saying that there is danger in these houses?"

Renn smiled and nodded, leaning forward and walking towards the house.

The two couldn't help but feel refreshed.

Rockbreaker Thorin grinned and said in a deep voice:

Seeing that his brother still wanted to speak, Thorin the Rock Breaker said softly:

It turned out to be them!

Ghoul!

These abominable undead creatures often appear in cemeteries, battlefields, or other places filled with dead bodies. They will lurk in any area with a strong corpse smell and attack unsuspecting creatures.

Renn smiled "hehe" and gave the other party a big slap on the back of his head. He raised his head and looked at the top of the dark mine tunnel, whistled in a low voice and muttered:

"Who knows what you think, I'm not a shapeshifter..."

Seeing the opponent's provocative look, Rockbreaker Witte almost burst out of anger. His chest kept rising and falling, and he looked at Renn like an angry beast.

Renne, who didn't talk much along the way, suddenly spoke.

Rockbreaker Thorin was relieved, grabbed the rope, and quickly descended, and soon reached the bottom of the pit.

"Mr. Witte, are you really sure there are no creatures inside?"

"Don't worry, brother, if he dares to do any tricks, the dagger in my hand won't recognize him!"

"Since Mr. Sri said so, could you please go and investigate again?"

"Go this way. Werther, you come to explore the road. Sri, you walk in front of me."

In this dangerous mine tunnel, if Sri, a human without dim vision, is allowed to continue to take the lead, it would be extremely irresponsible for the lives of the two brothers.

"Let's go and see if there's anything valuable in here!"

Soon, there was movement from the rope again, three short and one long, which was a signal that their brothers often used to confirm each other's safety.

"We are grasshoppers on the same rope. Helping you is helping myself."

Rockbreaker Witte whispered after returning from a round of reconnaissance.

Renn emphasized the word "possibly", then frowned and said:

"My intuition tells me that if I rush into it and conduct a search, it may lead to danger."

Following his deep intuition, Ren carefully walked to a house and gently opened the door with a piece of gravel he picked up, revealing a gap.

Haha, what kind of tricks can this guy do when he is sandwiched between his two brothers?

Renn shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

I saw a few old stone beds neatly arranged along the corners of the wall, and a rusty iron brazier filled with coal was placed in the center.

As for the unstable factor of the human boy...

Seeing the two gray dwarves coming to the bottom of the pit one after another, Renn shrugged his shoulders and asked:

"This is the miners' barracks. I guess there will be a lot of valuable things in it."

After all, rogues still have great advantages in stealth, detection, etc.

He looked down and saw about twenty skeletons wearing rotten armor scattered around the mine. Some of these skeletons were from dwarves and some were from humans.

Not only the evil in the harvest mines, but also these two "dear" dwarf brothers.

The four low-slung houses are surrounded by fences, and a dusty plaque hangs at the entrance, with the writing on it barely visible.

The ghoul has a human appearance, like a deformed child with a stooped back. Its arms hang down above the knees. A pair of dark claws can easily cut open the corpse and seize the internal organs for a feast.

Immediately afterwards, there was the second sound, the third sound...

(Ps: Transformers have the supernatural ability of [detecting thoughts].)

"You kid..."

He glanced over and saw his brother nodding slightly towards him, and he felt relieved.

He has long disliked this boy!

But he didn't expect that before he could cause trouble for the other party, the other party would attack him first.

Seeing Ren's question, Rockbreaker Thorin glanced around and saw many passages leading into the distance around the mine, and even a few half-excavated dead ends.

Seeing this human boy questioning himself, Rockbreaker Witte was immediately furious.

Rock Breaker Witte grinned and showed a ferocious smile. He suppressed the anger in his heart and gritted his teeth and said:

In the silent environment, the subtle creaking and cracking sounds in the house were amplified several times.

"So, two dwarf brothers, there are so many mine tunnels, which way should we go?"

In this case, it is better to let his own brother go to the front.

One beep lasts one second.

According to the agreement between this guy named "Sri" and them, as long as he landed safely, he would use the rope to transmit a signal and inform them of the time required to descend to the bottom of the pit.

In this way, with their own hidden agendas, the three of them cautiously moved towards the depths of the mine.

At this time, he really had no intention of doing anything.

The corpses eaten by the ghouls cannot provide it with any nutrition, but they are still forced to eat continuously by their endless hunger.

After taking a look at the three ghouls who were constantly looking for food among the corpses, Ren quietly retreated.

He shouldn't be the main force in this battle.

He is just a little warrior who likes to fish.
