It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 732 The acupoint has been found, how do we get in?

The ghouls didn't expect Liu Zheng to run so fast. When they realized what was happening and gave chase, they found themselves getting further and further away.

Of course, it couldn't let Liu Zheng escape like this. If he missed this opportunity, who knows when he would have to wait hundreds or thousands of years for the next one.

"Powerful Super Magic - Speed ​​Enhancement!"

The ghoul activated the bloodline magic within it, and an invisible magic was bestowed upon it.

Ghouls are a race that is transformed from humanoid creatures, and some ghouls retain their bloodline from when they were humanoid creatures after transformation.

This ghoul was a lucky one. When it was born as a human, it was a dragon vein sorcerer with the bloodline of a shadow dragon. After it was transformed into a ghoul, the shadow dragon bloodline not only did not disappear, but it also complemented the ghoul bloodline.

The powerful magic of dragon blood and the ghoul's strong physique give it both endurance far exceeding that of a mage and melee combat ability far exceeding that of a warrior.

The Haste spell doubles the caster's speed, while the Greater Metamagic spell increases the spell's effect by half.
With the speed boost of 2.5x, the ghoul finally caught up with Liu Zheng.

"A cloud of corruption!"

The ghoul opened its mouth and spat out a stream of dark green energy, which shot towards Liu Zheng like an arrow before turning into a dense cloud of darkness.

This is a magic fusion of the Shadow Dragon's "Dark Cloud" and the Ghoul's "Venomous Breath," and it is also a unique spell of the Ghoul.

Not only can it blind enemies and drain their life energy with negative energy, but it can also slow down enemies and continuously inflict poison damage.

Many enemies couldn't even escape the corrupting cloud; they were trapped inside and turned into rotting corpses.

The player has been 'blind'.

The player has been diagnosed with a 'moderate poisoning' status.

A system notification sounded in Liu Zheng's mind.

"Depend on!"

He cursed inwardly.

I never expected that this ghoul, who looked like a lowly soldier, was actually a noble warlock.

The "moderate poisoning" state is secondary; given his constitution and the effect of "flesh and blood regeneration," he can hold out for a long time. The "blindness" state, however, is more troublesome.

Liu Zheng has experience with this feeling of losing his sense of direction; he experienced it once when he got separated from his group while traveling in the desert.

All around him was the same yellow sand. He walked for ten minutes, thinking he was going back, but he was actually just going around in circles.

Fortunately, Liu Zheng was careful and pulled up a few shrubs to mark the spot; otherwise, it's hard to say when they would have found it.

He then stood still and waited patiently, and soon the main force came to find him.

But now he obviously can't stand still and wait. Even if the ghoul doesn't have any backup plans, it can still stall for ten minutes and let the cemetery kill him.

"How to do it?"

Liu Zheng thought through all the props he had, and it seemed that only "Uncertain Shadow" was suitable for the current situation.

The problem is that the "Uncertain Shadow" effect makes him randomly appear in a shadowy spot within a one-kilometer radius, and right now the largest shadow within a one-kilometer radius is this dark cloud.

"Wait, how could I forget I have skills?"

Just as Liu was hesitating whether to take a gamble, a sudden inspiration struck him.

He then took a deep breath and jumped up from the spot.

"Whoo~"

Liu Zheng endured the pain of his lungs being corroded by the poisonous gas and slowly exhaled.

His body gradually rose with each exhale until it was out of the range of the "corrupting clouds".

"Peng, you're a god forever!"

When his vision returned, he couldn't help but shout wildly in his heart.

Liu Zheng admitted that he was speaking too loudly when he saw the effect of "Penghu".

Indeed, any skill that solves the problem of "creating something from nothing" is undoubtedly strong, let alone a skill as versatile as flight.

"Stunned now? I can fly!"

He grinned smugly when he saw the ghoul's shocked expression.

The ghoul cast a cold glance at him, then vanished into its own shadow.

Liu Zheng's smile faded; this scene seemed familiar to him.

Following his instincts, he swung his sword without hesitation at the dark clouds below.

Sure enough, the next second, the ghoul emerged from the dark clouds, its two sharp claws reaching for his abdomen.

The dragon scale blade clashed with the sharp claws, and the ghoul's face twitched slightly.

No matter how much it is enhanced, claws are ultimately an extension of flesh and blood, and cannot compare to a blade of perfect quality like "Wrath".

But that wasn't all. Liu twisted his body in mid-air and then kicked the ghoul's head.

"Duang!"

The ghoul was caught off guard and got kicked squarely.

It let out a mournful cry and fell into the dark clouds.

Liu Zheng used the recoil to completely leave the area of ​​the dark clouds and continued to chase the bullets after landing.

As the dark clouds dispersed, the ghoul looked grimly in the direction he had left.

Whether it's a person or a dog, the hardest part is its head. Liu Zheng's kick didn't cause any real damage to it, but it was very insulting.

It seems I have to show some real skill, otherwise I won't only fail to obtain the angel's body, but I'll also lower the gravedigger's opinion of me.

The ghoul stretched out a claw and drew an oval in front of it, the same height as itself.

"Any door!"

The dark energy quickly filled the ellipse, turning it into a mirror door.

The ghoul did not immediately enter the mirror door, but instead raised its paws as if holding a bouquet of flowers.

A surge of nether energy converged towards its claw, forming a fireball that was white with a hint of green.

Using necromancy in a cemetery is like setting off firecrackers in a gas well—the effect is truly extraordinary.

With a push of its claws, the fireball flew into the mirror door.

Then, an identical mirror door appeared directly in front of Liu Zheng, and a fireball flew out from it, smashing into his face.

"grass!"

Although Liu Zheng was on guard, the mirror door was too close, and it was too late to dodge.

In the midst of the crisis, he indeed flung one tentacle toward the fireball, while using the other tentacle to sever the tentacle with his dragon scale blade.

The severed tentacles continued forward due to inertia and collided with the fireball.

"boom!"

The fireball exploded with a bang, and the burst of phosphorescent light instantly burned the tentacle into brownish-red ash.

Although Liu Zheng had retreated quickly enough, he still inevitably got covered in phosphorescent fire.

White smoke billowed from the burn wounds, accompanied by a stench like raw garlic.

His face was cold and stern. He used his remaining three tentacles to swing his knife, cutting off all the parts of his body that were covered in phosphorescent fire.

Even though his pain receptors had become distorted, the excruciating pain still caused him to break out in a cold sweat, which was then evaporated by the high temperature of the phosphorescent fire and turned into white salt stains.

"Such a body"

The ghoul watched this scene from afar, feeling both longing and fear.

Such a body, after digestion, should be no worse than an angel's corpse, and might even be better.

However, this regenerative ability, which is even more bizarre than that of a strange creature, left it somewhat uncertain.

The ghoul had heard that the black goat cubs had strong regenerative abilities, but how could a hybrid be this strong? Was it because of divine favor or because of something else added to it?

"Let's just destroy it completely."

After a brief moment of thought, the ghoul made a decision.

Given the familiarity between the other party and the gravedigger, even if the other party's body were preserved intact, the gravedigger might not hand it over for disposal.

It spat out a spray bottle containing a black, oily substance.

Phosphorus fire can burn anything, but the corpse oil refined from mature zombies is actually a powerful fire-prevention tool.

The ghoul pressed the nozzle, spraying its entire body with corpse oil, and then charged into the mirror door. It emerged from another mirror door, the phosphorescent flames also clinging to it, but the corpse oil blocked them, causing no harm.

"I told you, I'd eat your brain."

The ghoul looked at Liu Zheng smugly and said.

The latter's face had large chunks of flesh burned or cut off, revealing the white skull underneath.

Once you pry open these skulls, you'll find sweet and soft brains inside.

It wouldn't dare eat a whole roasted lamb, but it would certainly dare to eat roasted pig brains.

"Just you?"

Liu Zheng opened his mouth, which contained only teeth, and made a whistling sound, making him look more like an undead creature than a ghoul.

Then, he took out a leather pouch from the system space.

Name: Spirit Realm Gold Coin Bag

Type: Item

Quality: Perfect

"Effect 1: Consume Spirit Realm Gold to summon random Spirit Realm creatures to serve the player. The more Spirit Realm Gold consumed, the stronger the summoned creatures will be. The duration is not fixed. Current Spirit Realm Gold balance: 32."

"Effect 2: The consumed spirit realm gold coins need to be replenished using the player's own 'flesh'."

"Effect 3: Consuming spirit coins other than those in the coin pouch can increase the maximum storage capacity of the coin pouch by a ratio of 2:1."

"Note: I'm here to find you helpers, not to pimp you out!"

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

This perfect item has never been used since I got it, it's time to test its power.

Anyway, it's not a one-time use item; we can replenish it with his "flesh."

Liu Zheng flicked his wrist, and 32 half-real, half-illusory gold coins flew out of his pocket.

A tail covered in long white fur and blue scales stretched out from the void, encircling all the gold coins, and then disappeared back into the void.

"???"

Just when he thought he had encountered a gold coin thief, a large head with two sharp horns growing backward, resembling both a dragon and a snake, emerged from the void.

Fortunately, Liu Zheng reacted quickly and took two steps back, otherwise they would have kissed.

The giant snake stared at him, its expression seemingly somewhat confused.

Then, a halo flew out from its tip and teleported directly to the top of Liu Zheng's head, enveloping him.

"Detect evil!"

The ghoul recognized the spell, and its pupils dilated.

This is a specialty of benevolent spellcasters such as paladins, priests, and prophets; any creature of the evil alignment will glow red under this spell.

However, they generally do not use this spell lightly, because detecting evil is more about detecting whether someone possesses evil spiritual energy than detecting their heart or words.

There are many creatures that possess evil spiritual energy, such as undead creatures, shadow creatures, and dark creatures, which are born with evil spiritual energy, but not all of them are evil.

Therefore, detecting evil can often only be used as a supplementary method.

However, spellcasters of the good alignment will not necessarily use Detect Evil, but spellcasters who use Detect Evil will definitely be of the good alignment.

Although the other party did not possess the life aura that ghouls loathe, it still remained extremely cautious.

In the eyes of this unknown creature, the halo above Liu Zheng's head almost immediately emitted a dazzling red light.

Just as its gaze turned cold, the red lights rapidly gathered to one side.

Soon, the halo split into two colors: one half emitted a holy white light, while the other half was a deep, purplish-red.

"."

"."

The giant snake's expression turned confused again, and Liu Zheng was equally confused.

"Ahem, hello."

After exchanging glances, Liu Zheng felt that the stalemate could not continue, so he spoke first.

"Hello."

Orochi responded politely, his voice surprisingly childish, like the voice of a boy in anime.

"Well, if you don't want to work, how about you give me back my gold coins?"

He said.

"Half is fine too."

He then immediately added.

“My name is Ascuran, and I have come to receive your offerings. What do you want?”

The giant snake shook its head and asked.

"Help me destroy this ghoul, and leave its eyeballs for me."

Liu Zheng pointed to the ghouls not far away and said.

"The environment here greatly restricts me, preventing my true form from descending, and I cannot fulfill your request."

The giant snake shook its head again.

"Then restrict its movements so that it can't get in my way."

He settled for second best.

"can."

The giant snake nodded.

Then its two horns simultaneously emitted a dazzling white light, and a trapezoidal, flat-topped pyramid appeared out of thin air, trapping the ghoul inside.

"This is a temple spell, which can only last for eight minutes at most here."

"The giant snake said."

"Eight minutes is enough, thank you."

"It's just an equal exchange. I hope you will follow the path of order and kindness, even in a place like the metropolis."

The giant serpent gave Liu Zheng a deep look before disappearing into the void.

"I'll deal with you after I've finished robbing the tomb."

Liu Zheng was hurling threats at the ghouls locked inside the temple.

He paid no attention to what the giant snake said.

In a metropolis like this, practicing lawful goodness is like trying to be Superman with an "S" drawn on his chest and wearing his underwear on the outside.

Without the ghouls' interference, Liu Zheng quickly caught up with the bullet.

After turning one intersection after another, the bullets finally stopped.

He caught the falling bullet and looked at the cemetery in front of him.

It's called a cemetery, but it's actually a stone wall that's hundreds of meters high.

The surface of the stone wall was covered with moss and weeds, as well as some half-withered vines, making it look like an ordinary stone wall.

But in a place like a cemetery, this stone wall itself represents something special.

Liu Zheng tentatively touched it with his tentacle. The texture was not rough like stone, but smooth and cold like metal.

"Could it be that"

He used the Dragon Scale Blade to make a cut on the stone wall, and the cut revealed a golden luster.

"It turned out to be a metal wall."

He suddenly said.

So here's the question: now that the tomb has been found, where is the tomb entrance?
