Pollution throughout the territory

Black and smelly blood flowed down the palm of his hand. The ghoul did not expect that the other party could directly break through his own defense, and roared angrily.

His body suddenly swelled, his back bulged, his limbs became thicker, and his entire body was twice as long.

The rickety back, curled legs, and sharp claws all brought a strong sense of oppression. The crowbar was still inserted into his chest, but it seemed a little insignificant at this time.

When he hit the opponent, Xia Ren immediately retreated to avoid the opponent's fierce counterattack.

The ghoul was already going crazy, and its red eyes exuded a shuddering aura in the night. His attack was violent and violent, and its range was extremely wide, making Xia Ren unable to get close again for a while.

Moreover, the crowbar was taken away and the Eye of Lulim had just been used. If he used it forcefully in a short period of time, he would face bad side effects, resulting in his attack methods being reduced a lot.

The tentacles cannot be used easily. Although they are convenient, once they are injured, the pain will be doubled.

Just when Xia Ren was hesitating, he suddenly discovered that Lily's huge body was missing.

She would never run away, so where would she go?

Xia Ren was about to look for Lily when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a thin figure crawling close to the ground from behind the ghoul.

"The aura of that figure..."

Xia Ren couldn't help but frown.

That was the breath of a ghoul, yes, but why were there two ghouls?

There was no time to think, and in the next second, the thin body suddenly jumped up and climbed onto the back of the large ghoul. The skinny claws penetrated directly from the back, and the opponent's tough skin was like paper in front of the claws. So fragile!

"ah--"

The ghoul let out a scream of pain and stretched his hand around his back, trying to smash the kid who attacked him into pieces. However, the opponent's body squirmed and he got right in through the hole in his back.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

The ghoul's eyes widened, his expression extremely painful, his body waving around uncontrollably, and then he fell to the ground, his limbs spasming and twitching.

His chest bulged, as if something was tumbling inside, stirring his organs.

Seeing that the enemy had lost the ability to move, Xia Ren stood in a safe position and silently watched the ghoul being tortured, with some sideways glances.

"Destroying the enemy from within is indeed the most efficient."

He had already guessed the identity of the little ghoul.

Lily once swallowed Zhang Xiang's corpse, and she also had a special feature, which was that she could simulate the structure of the creatures she had swallowed.

The only thing that can easily break through the ghouls' defense is their own sharp claws.

The other party had completely stopped struggling, with his terrifying mouth wide open, his red eyes losing their light, looking towards the night sky, unblinking.

This is how a real battle is, there is not so much back and forth, as long as you are caught with a flaw, it is enough to be fatal.

A black arm poked out from the ghoul's chest, and then the thin figure emerged, changing into Lily's appearance.

Even after taking a bath in the other person's chest, her body was still spotless and clean.

"well done."

Xia Ren touched her head and realized that the latter was almost as tall as him.

"Hey hey hey..."

After receiving the praise, Lily still acted like a child, smiling coquettishly and rubbing Xia Ren's palm.

To be honest, Xia Ren was actually a little surprised by her behavior just now, because in his impression, Lily should have been staying in the Crazy Mountains before meeting him.

But in the battle just now, she showed her proficient fighting skills, knowing how to sneak attack, ambush, and find the enemy's weaknesses. If she was talented, it would be terrible.

It seems that Lily also has a secret that she doesn't know about yet.

But the matter at hand is still important now, Xia Ren no longer distracts his energy, but looks at the ghoul corpse at his feet.

Two tentacles stretched out and wrapped tightly around the corpse. The dense suckers on them were firmly attached to the corpse's skin, and the spiral hook teeth in the center pierced in, devouring his flesh and blood.

At the same time, a text unfolded in my mind.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the side mission: Hunting Ghouls!

Please select a reward:

1: 1000 achievement points.

2: Ancient dream fragments.

3: Dark Festival Ticket. 】

Xia Ren didn't even think about it and just chose three.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: a ticket to the Dark Festival. 】

A blood-red invitation appeared in his hand. The paper was made of an unknown material. It was lighter than ordinary paper, as if it had no weight.

The surface of the invitation was printed with complex patterns, like some kind of incantation. After opening it, there was no text inside, just a complicated magic circle diagram.

"How do we get to the Dark Festival?"

There was no mention of the venue on it.

However, Xia Ren felt a somewhat familiar fluctuation from this formation.

"This magic circle seems to be some kind of 'door'."

He didn't know much about magic, and he would find out later when he went back and showed it to Niu Changshou.

The thing has been obtained, and nearly half of the remaining energy of the ghoul has been absorbed by the tentacles. Xia Ren pulled out the crowbar and put it away, and then handed the remaining body to Lily for disposal.

He has realized that at this stage, his combat power is far less powerful than Lily's. It is estimated that this situation will change after he grows a few more tentacles. Well, I hope.

So raising Lily is the right way!

Xia Ren regretted that he had snatched food from Lily before, otherwise he wouldn't have had to take action in many battles.

All you need to do is stand behind and shout: "Lily, come on!"

Handsome, safe, just perfect.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Lily with something else in his eyes.

Lily, who had turned into a ball of jelly and was trying to digest the ghoul, suddenly felt a little alert, but when she looked around, she saw that her brother was the only one nearby, so she didn't care.

…

…

The Logistics Department had sealed off the surrounding area, and Xia Ren didn't go far before he found Niu Changshou.

"Is it resolved so quickly?"

Niu Changshou looked very shocked, especially when he saw Xia Ren and Lily dressed neatly, without any dirt on their bodies, he felt even more incredible.

He knew the strength of the ghouls, otherwise the wizard would not have signed a contract with them, just to take advantage of their powerful power, but he did not expect that Xia Ren defeated the opponent so quickly and seemed effortless. .

Has this kid actually grown to this point?

"I have something I need your help to look at."

Xia Ren took out the invitation letter, opened it and handed it to Niu Changshou: "Do you know the use of this magic circle?"

Niu Changshou looked at the magic circle and frowned: "It seems to be some kind of transfer channel, which can be opened when certain conditions are met. Where did you get it?"
