"The reason Tony lost was that he didn't take you seriously enough," Holma warned, "so from now on, no matter what enemy you encounter, you must go all out."

  "Hmm!" Tandon nodded, recalling the battle scene just now, and asked Holma, "The Ghoul Encirclement tactic is really useful, but the movement speed of the heavy Ghoul is too slow. Can my Jungle Agility Radiance accelerate them?"

  "No way, besides, you're good at Radiance, but the enemy won't wait for you to buff each target one by one." Holma vetoed, "It's better to bring more ghouls, divide into two teams, use light-armor magic slaves to intercept, and heavy-armor magic slaves to surround and kill afterwards."

  "Hmm, I can also participate in the siege." Compared to the giant-slaying finishing move, Tongdon felt that various control techniques were not bad either, and could disrupt the enemy's rhythm.

  "What's it like to take down an enemy who wants you dead?" Holma asked.

  "Like fine wine." Danton savored the phrase as he examined Tony's corpse, searching for spoils.

  The Robinson trio's loot was all stored in a secluded hut, and apart from a small pouch of magic stones and six potions on Tony, only the ring that could release lightning was relatively valuable.

  The dagger and leather armor were of fine quality, but Tandon was no longer impressed.

  "A high-quality, top-grade ring that can release a second-tier attack magic when activated. However, the cooldown time is as long as two hours, which is too long." Holma gave her evaluation after scanning with her magical detection, "With your current magical energy reserve, releasing it once will consume one-fifth of it, so use it sparingly."

  How to infuse less magical power and make the magic tool activate a greater power, achieving the best cost-effectiveness ratio, has always been a major problem in the magic world, of course, it is also a hard indicator for evaluating the good or bad of a magic tool.

  He put the ring on his left middle finger, Thaddeus surveyed the battlefield, he knew trouble was far from over, if Tony stayed missing for too long, Robinson and Pyre would definitely come looking for him.

  "It must have been the commotion that day when I was promoted that let them discover me." Tanton sighed, this was unavoidable.

  "Never mind Robinson for now, how are you going to deal with that guy who eats brains and entrails?" Magic Book absorbed Tony's remaining soul fragments, compressing the soul power.

  "I always feel like that guy is lurking in the shadows, secretly watching me!" Tanton didn't lift his head to look around, "Set a trap!"

  For the past three days, Tang Don discovered that there was always a monster that would come to steal and eat corpses during his meditation. At first, it wouldn't even spare spider meat, but as he killed more and more of them, the family couldn't finish eating in one sitting and started becoming picky, only wanting brains and internal organs.

  "It could also be several monsters." Holma judged, "With this eating habit, it's probably a ghoul that has evolved into wisdom."

  "Why didn't it attack me? A ghoul with such intelligence should be at least mid-tier, right?" Tang Dong muttered, "It can't be that it wants me to be its free labor and hunt for food for it, does it?"

  "It's certain, the day you killed the bank's spider is the same day you were attacked." Holma comforted, "But don't be discouraged, just like how there are geniuses among humans, there are also lucky ones among ghouls. Maybe it simply opened up its wisdom ahead of time, but its strength is still very weak."

  "No matter what, I won't run." Tandong didn't want to be a cowardly dog, he was ready to deal with that ghoul, this feeling of having a thorn in his back was really unbearable.

  "For a ghoul, human brains are the ultimate delicacy, let's make use of it!" Holma projected an arrow, pointing at Tony.

  "It might not be a good idea to see your Flame script, if it's important, let's communicate on the Magic Book instead, or you can project the text into grain-sized characters, as long as I can see clearly." Tang Don lowered his voice, "Don't touch Tony's body, when we leave later, set up a surveillance spell next to him and take a look at what kind of monster it is?"

  Seris floated back with a large burlap sack in her hands, containing over ten pounds of magical stones. If the Death Witch had more strength, she would have brought all the previously collected magical stones as well.

  "No, these magic stones can help you advance more quickly." Tandon refused Serese's kindness.

  "Why?" Serese's eyes welled up with tears, her two fingers intertwined again, "Do you dislike me?"

  "How boring self-esteem!" Holma sighed, actually quite appreciating Danton's decision. If he didn't have a bottom line for using Seris' magic stone, she would look down on this man.

  "Don't think too much, how could I possibly dislike you? If I wanted to use the magic stone, I would go find it myself!" Tong Dun tapped Serese's white forehead, "Don't waste time, start working."

  In order not to arouse the suspicion of that lurking monster, Tang Dun continued killing spiders as if he had noticed nothing.

  Dangton used a wave of flowing group killing tactics, with high efficiency, and the numerous spider corpses contributed a lot of soul power, but it was still not enough, besides repaying debts, he also had to repair the magic book.

  "At the very least, first set up a spatial marker and activate the transmission gate's energy." Tang Dong was also planning ahead. Once the transmission gate was complete, it would mean he could enter and exit the underground city at will.

  Even if you stay in the dimly lit Polusna all day, a cheerful personality will also become gloomy. A person's growth still can't be separated from brilliant sunshine and fresh air.

  Having exhausted his magical powers, Tang Don returned to the hut and handed over the surveillance task to Mo Dian. He then went into meditation to increase his strength in preparation for the impending crisis.

  Not long after, Holma woke up Dantong, and the target appeared.

  The pages of the opened grimoire displayed the streets near Tony's corpse, a scene transmitted back from the Eye of the Abyss.

  A ghoul was lurking on the street corner, stretching its neck to look around, with a cautious appearance like a thief who was stealing.

  Having made sure there was no danger, the ghoul suddenly puffed out its chest, wiggled its buttocks, tapped out a waltz rhythm with its feet, and spinning around in circles, walked down the long street and into the courtyard where Tony's body was laid out.

  "Hah, is this guy a clown?" Tong Dun couldn't help but chuckle, but the Corpse Eater's equipment soon furrowed his brow again.

  No, this ghoul is different from those naked miscellaneous soldiers. Not to mention the leather armor stained with blood, there is a curved knife at his waist and a large shield like a tortoiseshell on his back. In the long tube boots, a dagger handle is exposed, obviously always ready to assassinate people.

  This was absolutely a ghoul that had opened up its wisdom, as it held a crossbow in its hand, loaded with bolts. To know that even some intermediate ones couldn't use this kind of cumbersome weapon, and most of them still relied on physical strength to fight.

  The eyes of the ghoul shone with a green light, exuding an endless aura of cunning.

  After approaching Tony's body, it turned its head to look around, and once again confirmed that there was no danger, then took out a gray swan-shaped dinner napkin from its pocket, wrapped it around its neck, and subsequently pulled out a knife and fork.

  "Is this guy a gentleman?" Not just Tandon, even the experienced Holma was also shocked. The behavior of this ghoul was really beyond everyone's expectations.

  "Ah!" Seres cried out, grabbing onto Danton's arm and hiding behind his back, not daring to look again.

  In the courtyard, the ghoul used a dinner knife to cut out Tony's eyes, then forked them and sent them into his mouth, chewing slowly.

  A thread of liquid flowed out from the corner of his mouth.

  The ghoul's face was a picture of enjoyment, almost making Downton think it was sitting in the imperial palace, savoring a grand feast cooked by the court chef, rather than munching on a dead man's eyeball.

  "Tsk, tsk, this gourmet style is elegant to the extreme, it can't be a noble in front of him, right?" Holma suddenly became very interested in this guy. "Must catch him alive, such a special ghoul eater, extremely valuable for collection."

  "What?" Tong Dun was stunned, "Did I hear that wrong?"

  "A commoner, you didn't mishear, such a rare ghoul should be put in an iron cage and displayed in the mansion for people to see, otherwise it's too wasteful." If Holma had eyes, they would definitely shine brightly at this moment.

  Downton suddenly discovered that, apart from being used to calling others commoners and having a bit of a sharp tongue, Holma actually had a strange hobby of collecting weird things.

  "It should be mid-tier, right?" Tandon looked at the ghoul's skilled cracking open Tony's skull and tasting the brains, feeling a bit nauseous.

  "How is it possible, at most it's just a soul of 5 or 6 levels, look at its face, the flesh is highly rotten, and the dental bed is exposed." Holma explained, "The soul seal in the skull of the Ghoul will continuously absorb magical energy from space to transform its body, making them stronger. Therefore, the more intact the Ghoul's body is, the stronger it is."

  The ghoulish creature eating, its appearance is really wretched to the point of being unbearable, its lower jawbone is exposed, full of cracks, and a piece of its cheekbone is missing. As for its two hands, many joints are exposed, and when it uses force, the covering muscles will also fall off in fragments.

  "This is obviously a Ghoul that's lucky to the extreme!" Although its body was covered in plate armor, from the exposed parts, Holma estimated it wasn't going well either.

  Mo Tian guessed correctly, this Corpse Demon not only had good innate qualities but also had a **** stroke of luck, eating the brain of a super-tier demon beast, and thus possessed high-tier intelligence that could only be evolved during the low-tier period.

  For ghouls, devouring the corpses of other lives, especially brain pulp, fresh blood, and internal organs, not only can repair their own bodies but also increase their strength and quickly advance in rank.

  The undead clan's ghoulish legion devoured the corpses left on the battlefield after combat, once rated as one of the bloodiest and most terrifying scenes.

  "Even if I'm a fifth-tier soul master, I still can't beat him!" Tang Dong still had some self-awareness.

  "It's not certain, looking at its fully armed and hiding appearance, it's obviously a coward. Holma analyzed, "Let's use the magic servant to probe it first and see its combat method.""
