darkest personality

Chapter 146 148. Ghoul

"Damn it, why did it suddenly collapse?"

Rick Jones stepped back a few steps, the narrow crawling passage was completely blocked by stones, and the partners on the other side of the passage could no longer come here.

"I don't know if someone will be buried alive in it?"

He cherishes his companions very much, and he is the kind of character who will not give up his companions even if it is a last resort.

Noticing that Rick was eager to try, and wanted to push away the pile of rocks, Joey, who knew the captain's character, quickly dissuaded him: "The one following me should be Rodman, this guy is grinding... Maybe they hadn’t climbed in when the tunnel collapsed.”

"I hope so."

Rick sighed, and he also knew that the practice of picking up rocks was not realistic.

The four of them looked around. It looked like a natural cave with a small area. There were more than a dozen large and small caves distributed on the surrounding rock walls. The ground was covered with white bones. The 'pyramid' made of skulls looks like an altar left after some kind of dark ceremony, visually quite scary.

"My God!"

Joey exclaimed, how many skulls can be counted on the pile of skulls can tell how many people died here.

"What exactly is this place?"

"Looks like a lair of some kind of large beast?"

Grylls licked his lips calmly and swallowed.

"Hey, the beast is not interested in piling up skulls for viewing."

Joey complained: "And even if it is a beast, a beast that can kill so many people is not so easy to deal with, right?"

Bai Ye switched his concentration posture and began to walk around in the cave, observing the dozen or so cave openings on the rock wall.

The flow of the wind can be felt in this cave, the air circulation is good, and there is no strange smell. Facing the direction the wind is blowing, you can still hear quite faint rustling and 'chirping and clucking' sounds.

"The wind is coming from here."

After searching for a while, he stood next to one of the openings in the rock wall, the torch in his hand was shaking unceasingly due to the incoming wind.

"It should be possible to get out here."

Dare to be so sure that this is the correct exit, because he has just received the system's 50-point concentration posture proficiency reward.

"Let's go out from here first and find out if there is a way back to the tunnel just now. I hope nothing will happen to the three of them."

Rick Jones stepped into the cave first holding a torch, and others followed behind him.

……

The road behind the cave was narrow at first, and it seemed that only one person could pass through. In many places, you had to turn your body sideways, but it became wider and wider as you walked further.

"That strange sound has also become louder."

In the bone cave at first, Bai Ye thought that the strange sound was caused by the wind, but after walking here, he realized that the rustling sound was obviously made by some kind of creature crawling and moving.

And the sound of "chirp cluck" and "gulling gurgling" is more like the unique cry of that kind of creature.

"There may be a situation ahead."

He immediately slowed down and reminded his companions in a low voice.

Joey shrank behind Rick Jones, while Grylls took a step forward, took out a military dagger and held it in his hand, with a vigilant expression on his face.

"Where!"

The four quietly walked a few more steps, Bai Ye stopped, and pointed to a raised rock about 20 meters away.

The rest of the people looked in the direction of his fingers, and saw a gray-white creature squatting on the rock. The creature looked only the size of a child, and its shape was somewhat similar to Gollum in "The Lord of the Rings". But it has a pointed dog head, hairless on the top of the head, wrinkled skin, and a mouth full of sharp teeth, making it look particularly ferocious.

It has slender hands and feet, squatting on the rock in a frog squatting way, turning its head around, and a pair of dog-like ears are erected, as if to identify the direction through the sound.

'This is the underground monster described in Thurber's letter. '

Bai Ye silently took out the [Disciple's Hidden Sword] from his bag, put it on his right wrist, and threw a recognition skill at the target along the way.

——You have used 'Identify' on the target and are observing...

——Successful observation!You have obtained the relevant information of the target.

Name: Ghoul
Health: 100%.Physical value: 70%.

Stance: Focus LV0, Cautious LV4, Active LV5.

Ability 1: Devouring, devouring flesh and blood can quickly restore stamina and a small amount of health.

Ability 2: Infection, there is a small chance of infecting the target with the disease.

Ability 3: Call sign, when in danger, it will make a loud call sign to attract the surrounding partners to come.

Weaknesses: head, throat, heart, vision deterioration.

——Your behavior makes the concentration posture proficiency +100.

It is estimated that this kind of creature is not advanced, and it is easy to identify and observe very detailed information.

"Due to living in the underground world for a long time, the eyesight has seriously degraded? Other aspects are average, only the 'call sign' ability needs to be paid more attention to. This kind of monster seems to be operating in groups..."

Bai Ye looked around the ghoul, and sure enough, he saw several hideous dog heads hiding behind some rocks.

'Do they know we're here?Is this a wave ready to ambush us? '

Rick Jones stretched out his palm and pressed it down twice, signaling that everyone should not act rashly or make a sound.

He also obviously found more ghouls, and was going to observe what this monster was going to do first.

The ghoul squatting on the rock seemed to be a leader-like character. After squatting for a while without noticing any movement, it suddenly stood upright and let out a short, weird 'roaring' sound from its throat.

The ghouls hiding behind the rocks responded one after another after hearing the cry, and they all stood up from their hiding places. There were quite a few of them, about a dozen of them.

They landed on all fours, followed behind the leader, and slowly walked towards the four members of the expedition team.

The situation is pretty bad!

Although it is unclear whether the ghoul team has discovered the four members of the expedition team, as long as they continue to walk in this direction, the two sides will meet within ten seconds.

There is no need to speculate whether the opponent is hostile or not, because the small pile of 'skull pyramids' in front has already explained everything.

Therefore, there are only two choices before the expedition team of four: either fight or escape!
However, everyone knows what the reason is, and the result of turning around and running away is very likely to be a failure, and then they have to fight.

Everyone looked at Rick Jones calmly, waiting for the legendary explorer to give an order.

Rick seemed calm and calm on the surface, but his big furry hands were already pressed on his waist, where his sidearm should be hanging.

However, just as the ghoul team approached to less than ten meters away from the expedition team, suddenly!From the direction opposite to their progress, there were several gunshots.

Bang bang bang!
The dozen or so ghouls that were advancing slowly stopped immediately, their ears pricked up, and they let out an irritable 'boo hoo hoo hoo hoo' sound.

Then, as the leading ghoul yelled loudly, the dozen or so ghouls immediately turned around and rushed towards the direction of the gunshots.
