Chapter 400 Resource Integration, Nether Source Quality
I thought that with the existing resources of the Holy See, even if I joined the Paladin Order and used all the [purification rituals], I would not be able to defeat them in a short period of time..."
"The result? Did you win?"
Li Ang couldn't wait to ask, "How did you defeat it? What level of evil is that ghoul?"
"Oh, a mistake."
The old bishop sighed bitterly, "Although those ghouls are powerful, they are not legendary creatures, but made of some kind of special flesh and blood tissue.
That ghoul is as powerful as a hundred ordinary legendary mages!
Their attack power and speed have reached the legendary level, and they are not afraid of pain and death, unless they are completely smashed, it is difficult to kill them..."
"So, how did you win?"
"The purification ritual...the purification ritual caused a certain degree of corrosive damage to those corpses,"
The old bishop coughed a few times, "But they still persisted for three days and three nights."
"Three days?!"
Li Ang exclaimed, "Aren't those ghouls tired?"
"That's right, their bodies are immortal and will not die. Even if they are blown up, they will quickly condense into new limbs."
The old bishop sighed softly, "Such a stubborn body is unheard of...Fortunately, I have the protection of the holy emblem bestowed by the Pope. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have died long ago."
Li Ang frowned, "Since the weaknesses of these ghouls are so obvious, you should be able to find a way to deal with them, right?"
"This..."
The old bishop laughed dryly, "The Holy See also sent priests to try to find a way to deal with ghouls, but there has been no progress...
In fact, I think those ghouls are weird too. It stands to reason that their bodies are spliced together by different creatures, and no matter how many times their bodies are damaged, they can be restored. In theory, there are no defects at all.
But in fact, they are still destroyed thousands of times...
That secret may be hidden in the crystal nucleus or other organs in their bodies. But that part is too hidden, I have spent fifty or sixty years, but I still can't find it clearly...
His Majesty the Pope once personally appeared and led a team into the dark canyon to search for their traces, but there has been no news of them. "
Li Ang stroked his chin and asked thoughtfully, "How many times have they been defeated?"
"twice……"
"That is to say, it was eliminated seven times in total," Li Ang continued to ask, "So, the other ghouls are also here?"
The old bishop hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice: "The Pope said that there are many ghoul lairs in the dark canyon, and most of them are young ghouls... These young ghouls don't need to sleep, just eat some food Fill their stomachs. Therefore, I suspect that they hide in their nests and sleep a lot.
As long as we search patiently, we should be able to find them. "
As he said that, the old bishop pointed to a black iron bucket in the corner, "That is a container specially used to hold corpses, and there are about 500 young ghouls in it."
Li Ang glanced at the situation, and there were piles of wriggling and rolling flesh in the iron bucket.
He observed carefully for a while, and found that the surface of these pieces of meat was covered with black lines, like contaminated blood.
"These things won't come out, will they?"
"Don't worry, we've already soaked them in holy water."
The old bishop shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "We have prepared enough holy water, and even invited a powerful clergy, as long as they dare to show their heads, we will immediately burn them to death with holy fire!"
Li Ang snorted, and glanced at the many warriors around, and found that most of these priests were high rank priests, and each of them held a holy gun, holy sword, holy shield or various weapons in their hands. It looks like they are all elite.
"They are all legendary class."
The old bishop noticed Li Ang's gaze and explained something.
"Legendary class?" Li Ang showed surprise, "Your Majesty the Pope actually sent you to fight?"
The old bishop shook his head, "He didn't send me alone...he sent a legion to follow us. Our task is to contain the ghouls and create opportunities for the Holy See without participating in the annihilation."
He paused, and added: "It is said that the The Underworld invader is also nearby, but its strength is not yet known..."
Li Ang nodded and changed the subject: "So... where is the crystal nucleus of that ghoul?"
The old bishop took out a fist-sized ruby from the storage bag and handed it over, "This is its crystal nucleus."
Li Ang reached out to take the crystal nucleus, inspected it a little, and sensed a strong bloody evil spirit blowing towards his face.
This is the crystal nucleus of the legendary creature?
It's so exciting~
"correct."
The old bishop thought for a while, then suddenly said: "You should have heard of the word 'blood frenzy' too, right?
At the beginning, the bloody frenzy was a catastrophe erupting in the Dark Canyon, but as time passed, more and more creatures in the Dark Canyon woke up and became more dangerous and terrifying.
We had to unite Transcendents and Knights from other countries to strangle the ghouls together.
Not long ago, we wiped out a group of ghoul leaders in the depths of the Dark Canyon and obtained their crystal cores. "
Li Ang raised his eyebrows, "So...the crystal nucleus in your hand is their soul crystal?
In other words... the arm you cut off just now is not actually that ghoul's limb, but another ghoul's limb. "
"Yes."
The old bishop sighed, "After the limbs of the ghoul were severed, they quickly collapsed and turned into a pool of foul-smelling slime. Its crystal nucleus was buried underground until tonight...
I unearthed a black lacquered metal wreckage in the crevices of the ruins. After research, I found that this is their skeleton.
Those ghouls are bodies made of bone-like materials—their bones and muscles have been transformed by magic, turning them into solid bodies like steel and iron bones, and their blood vessels have also been distorted into deformed appearances. It looks like an earthworm, and it looks like a spider web..."
Li Ang pinched the crystal nucleus and sighed in admiration, "Sure enough, a veritable ghoul..."
The old bishop nodded, "Well... this crystal nucleus is very valuable.
Not sure if it will advance your breakthrough bottleneck to gold, but it will definitely boost your poison resistance, stamina, and reflexes. "
"Thank you~"
Li Ang arched his cupped hands towards the old bishop, and was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something, "Wait, the cave you mentioned is near here, right?
I remember...there used to be a ghoul mother living there, right?
What strength is it? "
"...Are you referring to the depths of that dark canyon?"
The old bishop was stunned, "Not sure... However, according to the legend, the ghoul female beast broke through the shackles 20 years after the end of the world, stepped into the Transcendent realm, and possessed [Ghost Quality] , which can manipulate shadow elements.
It is said that she is the only Transcendent life born in the Dark Canyon. "
