Gu Xinghe noticed fluctuations coming from the spatial rift in front of him.
Then, a dozen or so tall ghouls crawled out of this space, which seemed to completely disregard physical rules such as volume and size, and was only half a person's height.
Meanwhile, the ghouls return from the dream world to the real world, to this graveyard.
At this moment, they quickly discovered that someone like Gu Xinghe had infiltrated the nest.
In reality, people rarely pay attention to the existence of underground spaces.
They also strongly dislike entering sewers or underground cemeteries.
In addition to the intricate network of underground tunnels.
The ghouls also protect their lair using methods previously employed in the sewers and in this current location.
Gu Xinghe could smell the disgusting, rotten, and filthy stench.
Gu Xinghe was able to pinpoint the ghouls' true lair so quickly.
This is also related to his direct perception that there was a blank area below the cemetery.
However, unlike Gu Xinghe, who was able to quickly locate and lock onto a position and ignore the smell without feeling anything, this was different.
When ordinary people first enter the outer area of the ghoul's lair...
In fact, one can easily lose their way due to that vast and complex network of underground tunnels.
Then, he gradually felt more and more uncomfortable in that terrible, filthy environment.
And gradually, under the "radiation" of that smell, his body underwent a certain mutation, degenerating from a human into a ghoul.
But now, they discovered that Gu Xinghe had safely arrived at their hideout without being assimilated into their kind.
The ghoul quickly discovered the reason from Gu Xinghe—
The group of monsters sensed the powerful force emanating from the faint black mist surrounding Gu Xinghe.
After sensing the dangerous aura emanating from Gu Xinghe, the unknown intruder, one of the ghouls shouted at him.
"Waaaaah—waaaah!!"
Stay away from strangers!
In reality, ghouls are beings with a considerable degree of intelligence and are capable of communicating with humans.
Right now, the ghoul in front of Gu Xinghe was speaking to him in a hurried, almost crying voice.
However, when this group of ghouls discovered that Gu Xinghe still had an indifferent expression on his face...
This group of monsters, who possessed intelligence similar to humans but were still controlled by their beastly instincts, were enraged.
In fact, the powerful force emanating from Gu Xinghe also emits a kind of dangerous information pollution.
This pollution itself can also affect and erode the thinking and cognition of those affected.
Therefore, at this moment, the greed in the hearts of the ghouls far outweighed the fear brought about by the perception of danger.
Although Gu Xinghe is still alive, he is not their favorite food.
But thanks to this "food," I now smell nice on my body.
The ghoul thought it wasn't impossible to patiently wait for the "food" to "ferment" properly.
As he watched the ghouls crawl out of the spatial rift and approach him relentlessly.
Gu Xinghe felt a surge of excitement, a strong urge to take out his explosives and throw them at the ghoul.
He wasn't afraid to throw bombs in the underground space, which would eventually cause the soil to collapse and bury him.
On the contrary, Gu Xinghe thought that if a "sinkhole" formed here, it might become a spectacle.
However, considering that there was a cemetery directly above him, it would be immoral to disturb the peace of other "people".
Gu Xinghe decided to abandon the idea for now.
But among all these things, Gu Xinghe believed that the most important thing was that he wanted to preserve the ghoul in its best possible condition.
After leaving this place, use the corpses of the ghouls he killed as evidence to complete his main quest.
Otherwise, if they were to directly use their own explosives to detonate the ghouls, they might not even leave behind a few fragments.
So now, after thinking for a moment, Gu Xinghe took out the poison from his storage space, something he hadn't done in a long time.
He then combined the poison with his own fog, creating a cloud of poisonous mist.
At this moment, under Gu Xinghe's control, the poisonous fog quickly drifted to the front of the dozen or so ghouls.
This group of monsters was completely imprisoned within this poisonous fog space.
At the same time, he also controlled the amount of poisonous mist that the ghouls inhaled.
Three of the ghouls were only rendered unconscious, not killed.
As for these three ghouls that are about to be controlled by him.
Gu Xinghe planned to conduct some experiments using these ghouls before entering the Dream Realm through the spatial rift.
As for his reason for wanting to go into the crevice to explore the Dream Realm...
This was because Gu Xinghe felt that the location mentioned in the side quest, "Find the place where the stolen corpse is located," was the correct one.
As expected, it was in a dream world.
As mentioned before, the Dream Realm is a space that can accommodate both consciousness and the physical body.
Therefore, after a person dies, as long as they possess a rich imagination and a strong enough obsession, they can survive.
If one accepts the legitimacy of dreams, one can even achieve immortality in a dream world after the death of the physical body.
Therefore, Gu Xinghe believed that the consciousness of those whose bodies were stolen had entered the dream world after death.
And thereafter became a resident of the Dreamland.
Aside from wanting to complete the side quests, Gu Xinghe was actually quite interested in this space.
But at this moment, after Gu Xinghe had defeated all the ghouls that had appeared in this nest.
However, he did not receive any notification that his main quest was completed.
It's unclear whether it's because there are still three ghouls under Gu Xinghe's control, but they're just in a coma.
Or perhaps it's because the ghouls living in Set City are not just the dozen or so in front of them.
Later, ghouls will return to this lair through this spatial rift.
Therefore, Gu Xinghe has not completely solved the problem of corpse theft in Set City.
After thinking for a moment, Gu Xinghe also realized—
Although the people of Set hired bounty hunters to eliminate any ghouls that might exist in the city.
But as the main quest states, the goal is to [solve the problem of [corpse theft] in Set City].
Therefore, as long as the ghouls are prevented from stealing corpses from Set City for food, the problem of [corpse theft] in Set City will be solved.
It's likely that the people in the city wouldn't care if the ghouls couldn't find any more corpses to eat.
They can only eat rotten garbage in the sewers.
