The weakness of the ghouls is their head, if it's not destroyed with one blow, even if they are cut off their hands and feet, or have a huge wound on their chest that leaves them disembowelled, they will not die.

  The horror of these monsters also lies in the fact that there are almost no pain nerves on their bodies, and all fear has disappeared.

  They have no idea what death is, even when faced with a giant dragon that can burn them to ashes with a single breath, they will still charge forward fearlessly. As long as they don't die, no matter how severe the injury, they will continue to attack their enemies relentlessly until one side falls.

  Due to this racial trait, the Lich became the most cost-effective cannon fodder, and the Lich Legion was always in the first attacking sequence among the undead legions.

  Carrion Crawler Tidal Tactics, once made many countries on the Western Continent change color, this cheap cannon fodder is an excellent soldier that every commander wants to have.

  Tang Dun pushed the corpse away, pulled out the dagger, turned around, and with a burst of strength, he kicked the ground with his right foot and sprinted out, creating a distance of over ten meters in just one breath.

  The ghouls were too busy fighting over and tearing at the corpse in front of them to pursue Downton, giving him enough time to sprint to a safe distance.

  Pire gave Tang Dun a big thumbs up. If he had missed his previous blow, he would have become the food of the Corpse Eater by now.

  Tony was jealous of his madness, Tanton was too calm and had a more terrifying ability to respond to emergencies. He asked himself that if he faced a fierce corpse-eating ghost who was much stronger than himself, he would definitely run away at the first time.

  The small squad of five people escaped into the town.

  Several ghouls were wandering on the ruined street, hearing a noise, they rushed over immediately.

  "What to do?" Tony grasped a narrow-bladed dagger, ready for battle.

  "Don't force it, find a place to hide first." Robinson quickly scanned the surroundings. Everyone had run for so long and was exhausted, even if they wanted to break out, they needed to recover their strength first.

  "Entering a hotel, there are many rooms, and the opportunity to choose is also great!" Tang Dun pointed to a large six-story hotel about thirty meters away.

  "Go, Pyre! Make way!" Robinson drew out a dagger studded with magical gemstones from his waist, and if time hadn't been so pressing, he wouldn't have hesitated to waste the stored magic within.

  To enter the inn, you must slay two ghouls blocking the way.

  On the long street, there is no way to avoid it anymore.

  "Flame Burst!" Along with Robinson's hand gesture, a coconut-sized fireball shot out from his fingertips, trailing scorching flames behind it, and struck the Ghoul.

  Boom! The ghouls were blown into pieces, burning chunks of flesh flying everywhere.

  Pire and Toni joined forces to kill another ghoul, then the five of them rushed into the inn, not stopping, and ran straight up to the second floor.

  "Damn it, still being chased!" Robinson was furious. He hadn't expected that even with the magic dagger, killing the ghoul in an instant, he still couldn't gain any time.

  These tireless undead creatures were pursuing too closely, even if they couldn't see a human figure, they could still follow the dense footsteps and catch up.

  "Split up and run, every man for himself! Tandon, Duren, you go to the second floor!" Pire sprinted up to the third floor with a clear and loud voice.

  "Old Skin is cheating again!" Tony couldn't help but sneer, as if he had already seen the scene of those two unlucky devils being torn apart.

  Robinson, who fell to third place, didn't even look at the second floor and directly turned around the staircase corner, continuing to climb.

  These three people have been old friends for many years, with a tacit understanding, and have used this tactic to narrowly escape death three times, having tricked over a dozen adventurers.

  "Alright!" Duren agreed, and immediately wanted to rush into the second-floor corridor to find a room to hide in.

  Tang Dun was quick and agile, grabbing his friend's clothes with one hand and pulling him up to the third floor.

  "What are you doing? Let them lure the ghouls away, and we'll be able to live!" Duren urged in a low voice, at this moment of life and death, naturally he couldn't care about others.

  "Impossible!" Tong Dun didn't even have time to explain, and as he rushed up to the third floor, a cold smile welled up in his heart. He couldn't help but think that the seemingly kind-hearted Pire was actually so cunning.

  The long corridor on the second floor is a straight line, with an open view. The ghouls are chasing so tightly that as soon as they come up, they will see the unlucky ghosts running in this direction first. After all, the staircase leading to the upper layer has a bend, which perfectly shields Robinson's trio from being discovered, greatly reducing their chances of being found.

  Tang Dun hadn't considered finding a nearby room to hide in, but what about the distance? What if it was slightly far away and he couldn't make it inside before the ghouls caught up to him? Moreover, there was also the possibility that the door would be locked.

  Pire used Duren's idea of using them as bait, but the conditions for both sides were too different.

  Four minutes into their escape, Tongdon wasn't just focused on running. When he heard Robinson mention a small town, he began thinking about how to use the terrain to escape. Otherwise, he wouldn't have suggested hiding in an inn in time. He even inferred the layout of the inn.

  "It's always the honest ones who are more deceptive when they lie, I hope the ghouls enjoy their flesh!" Tony rushed into the third-floor corridor and subconsciously turned his head back to look at them, but the triumphant expression on his face froze, and he blurted out, "How did you guys get up here?"

  "Not good!" Robinson turned around, and saw Downton and Duran panting as they ran up, their mouths twitching. "Damn it, I should have guessed earlier, can't fool this kid, what to do now?"

  "Trouble!" Pire, who was rushing ahead, turned back and just wanted to shoo them away, but his entire body suddenly disappeared into the corridor.

  Toni and Robinson's jaws dropped in shock almost hitting the floor, then everything went black for what seemed like a brief moment before light returned.

  "What's going on?" Du Leng looked at the three people who suddenly disappeared into thin air and subconsciously wanted to stop in his tracks.

  The rapid footsteps thudded against his eardrums, and Tang Don knew the Corpse Eater had caught up. With certain death on one side and a thread of hope on the other, he had to make a desperate bid.

  "Don't stop!" Tandon pulled Duren, his legs exerting force, accelerating again. His field of vision immediately fell into endless darkness, as if he had fallen into a lake, and a sticky feeling appeared around him, but quickly disappeared.

  Downton lost his balance and immediately covered his head with both hands before crashing heavily to the floor, rolling out of the way.

  "What is this place?" Tony crawled up and looked at the dusty room, dazed.

  "Stay focused, fight!" Danton growled low, five people came, so the ghouls had no reason to not catch up.

  As expected, as soon as Tandon's voice fell, the corpse-eating ghost appeared out of thin air with a strong foul odor, but this guy also lost his balance due to suddenly passing through the transmission array and fell to the ground.

  "Thunderclap Strike!" Pire let out a tiger's roar, charging to the side of the Ghoul, at the same time his left foot swiftly stomped the ground, initiating his battle technique. Some blue electrical arcs immediately spread out in all directions.

  The ghoul's electrification led to a brief stalemate.

  Whoosh! The Viking heavy sword brought a dull wind-breaking sound, one slash, chopped onto its head, directly splitting it into two halves.

  Robinson swung his dagger and released a Flame Burst, blowing up the second Ghoul that was charging at him.

  Chunks of flesh were burning, crackling and falling off, slamming onto the ground, splashing up choking dust.

  The upper body of the third corpse-eating ghost appeared, but before it could rush in, its body suddenly shattered.

  Tony held the dagger in a reverse grip, staring intently at where the ghouls had appeared. Fortunately, the fourth one did not come out after all.

  The ghouls caught up to the third floor, suddenly losing track of their prey and were stunned. These monsters wouldn't think, so they wouldn't search the corridors, but instead relied on instinct and wandered off.

  Five people held sharp blades and were on guard for several minutes, but the corpse-eating ghost did not appear after all. They relaxed and sat down on the ground with a thud.

  "Is this teleportation?" Tony panted a few times before looking uncertainly at Robinson.

  "Yes!" Robinson nodded and looked around.

  This is a spacious master bedroom, filled with dust everywhere, as thick as an inch or more, as if submerged in the long river of time.

  Robinson traveled extensively in seven countries and had a broad knowledge, but he couldn't recognize this decorative style.

  "Didn't see the portal?" Duran was puzzled.

  "The magical energy that maintains the portal has been depleted, so there's no physical body. We're just lucky, you see? That last ghoul was torn apart by spatial energy because it didn't make it through in time due to insufficient portal energy."

  Robinson pointed to the walls around him, which were carved with intricate and mysterious magic arrays, and inlaid with magic stones at each node, only now all the magic stones had cracked, a characteristic of exhausted magic.

  Mystic stones are a naturally occurring mineral that takes at least hundreds of millions of years to form. They contain rich magical source energy, which is the purest form of magic power. Any mage of different professions can directly absorb and extract this energy from them. Mystic stones are also an indispensable fuel for various magical industries, including spellcasting, smithing, alchemy, and more, all of which rely on mystic stones to provide magical energy.

  "Who built this portal here?" Duran was very curious, "It's said that this is a very advanced field of magic study, even ordinary dragon-slaying mages don't understand it!"

  "Hey, what's the point of worrying about this? The portal is gone, how are we going to get back?" Tony's words left everyone in silence, their faces filled with deep concern.

  "Finding enough magic stones for exchange should be able to open the teleportation gate."

  Pire hadn't finished speaking when Tony interrupted him.

  "Big brother, what kind of joke is this? Counting the nodes on the magic array, it would take over a hundred pieces to fill it up. Where are we going to find that?" Tony said with a gloomy face.

  "Let's figure out what this place is first!" Pire sighed and walked towards the louver window. The bedroom was dimly lit, and with a slight movement, dust would be stirred up, making people feel depressed after staying for a long time.

  "You've discovered it, haven't you? The free magical energy in this space is more than sufficient, at the very least three times that of Drankfort, no, five times!" Robinson's face was filled with wild excitement as he sensed the density of the magic with his soul power. "If I cultivate here, I can quickly reach the sixth rank of my soul, and even advance to the War Rank, it's not a problem at all!"

  Before everyone could digest this happy cake, Pire, standing in front of the louver window, let out a sharp cry with a shocked face.

  "Come and see quickly!"
