Bizarre Detective Agency: Chapter 1374 16. Re-invitation

  The second is Eumendis. It's a scavenger-like grotesque of desecrating corpses, somewhat like a False Gardener, but just as a False Gardener is a parody of an Imitation Gardener, so is Eumendis a parody of a False Gardener—Eumendis' cobbled together mincemeat And severed limbs really become part of them, so their strength depends on the corpses found.

   Lu Li's guess about his preferences tended to provide corpses, but Claire's information was surprising: they like to be clean.

   "Flies also like to be clean, but it doesn't prevent them from carrying the plague." Claire said, "So you may also consider sending some soap to that fly group."

   Just in case, there will be two kinds of gifts for Eumendis: the frozen corpses that have not been used up in Horror Night, and the creep monsters.

   or the ability of creep monsters

  Eileen negotiated with the leader of Eumendis, and the conversation was successful. They swept away the strange corpses presented, and then lined up in front of the creep monsters to accept the baptism of the creep monsters soaked in foamy water.

  Double gifts made Eumendis promise to attend tomorrow.

  Counting the original rat man, now, Lu Li has three guests.

   The third one is slime monster. Claire said they were real trouble. Failure is not a surprise, success is a surprise.

They are rotting organic matter just like their name, and their temperament is just like their name—the lack of intelligence caused by their body structure makes it difficult for them to think complexly, and they are fundamentally different from ghouls—although ordinary ghouls are not smart, they know the advantages and disadvantages. And the slime monster with an empty head really dared to attack the evil god.

   Lu Li tried to give Mud to them, and they accepted it, but their attitude towards Lu Li remained unchanged and they were even eager to attack. Lu Li gave the corpses again, and their attention was diverted from Lu Li's body—the real diversion, no matter whether they wrapped the corpse in muddy body for eating or lazily digested it, they would no longer pay attention to Lu Li.

  He can only ask Elena to tell about tomorrow's banquet again, hoping that they will remember, and then go to the next force.

   The fourth are the parasites - that's what Claire calls them. But in fact, it is more like a symbiosis: they parasitize in the host's heart and survive through nutrients, and their excrement will be integrated into the host's blood to make the host's flesh and blood carry deadly toxins, thereby improving the survival rate. Lu Li still provided corpses to these parasitic beasts with colorful thorns growing on their bodies. They also showed kindness, but it was not enough.

  So Lu Li asked the Land of Light to capture a few live monsters and give them to the parasitic beast. They released their euphoric emotions to accept their new future companions, and Elena took this opportunity to invite them to tomorrow's banquet.

  The fifth is not a force, but only one individual: a wraith.

   This wraith, who was undoubtedly a human being, had high hopes of attending the banquet, but unfortunately he did not attend yesterday's banquet. But it's still the weirdest thing to get along with—in order to increase the success rate, Lu Li asked Ophelia from the castle to come over and negotiate with Elena with the wraith.

  Ophelia brought a good start, and the wraith said that it has been here since its birth and lost its past memory. Facing Ophelia, who is also a wraith, she invited it and agreed.

   "But it didn't quite trust us. I told it about my ritual, but it didn't."

   "It's not important, as long as it will attend the banquet tomorrow." Leaving the haunted hut where the wraith dwells, Lu Li replied.

   "Little Remi, do you think it is the soul of the night city?"

   "Maybe yes, maybe no, yes probably more."

   There will not be a wraith popping up in Midnight City without a reason. It should be known that the ghost system has also become weak in the weird era when human beings are endangered.

   There is no need for Ophelia to send her back to the castle. Along the way, they repel a few vicious thieves lurking in the dark. Lu Li and the others visited the sixth, seventh, and eighth forces.

  A high wall of bones stretched between the street and the houses, blocking Lu Li and the others from visiting.

  I didn’t have this bone wall when I came a few days ago.

   "It seems that they don't welcome us." Elena muttered vaguely.

   "But they accepted our weird currency..." Claire brooded.

   "Next." Lu Li said.

   Finally, they came to the ghoul's lair again.

  Eileen expressed concern about Lu Li's plan to infiltrate the lair: "Why don't you contact ghouls like other monsters? You might be discovered..."

   "The lighthouse can help me hide my identity."

  Just like helping Lu Li get in touch with other weirdos, the lighthouse also allows Lu Li to blend in. As for the former: "Ghouls believe in the Lord of Ghouls...I want to confirm that."

  If the ghoul group in Midnight City also believes in the King of Ghouls, the devil's contract may not take effect or be discovered.

  And ghouls believe in the ghoul king, if there are night city souls...does the ghoul king know about them, do they belong to the ghoul king.

"me and you together."

   "I'll go in by myself."

   Just when Lu Li was about to use the dreamer to disguise himself as a ghoul, Elena suggested: "You can use the dreamer to sneak into the ghoul's dream..."

  This is much simpler than Lu Li's adventure into the lair, and it's not easy to detect.

  Lu Li adopted Elena's suggestion, gave up the reckless behavior of breaking into the ghoul's lair alone, and hid in the dark of the lair, waiting for the ghoul squad that was out to prey to emerge.

  These monsters, which look like skinned people, have sharp teeth that occupy half of their faces. Contrary to their skinny bodies, they have long claws that can tear open their stomachs.

  Lu Li released dreams on their only path, making most of them drowsy, leaving only an inconspicuous ghoul rummaging through memories.

From the dream, Lu Li glimpsed the inside of the ghoul lair—the social structure, the altar of transformation, the ghoul warlock leading the group, and a sacrificial ceremony to the king of ghouls—the terrifying blood claws clawed from the void to howl The sacrifice, retracted into the void, chewing and howling.

  Lu Li escaped from the dream, and then finished the dream - seamlessly connecting the dream with reality, so that the team didn't realize it.

   There is no doubt that ghoul groups that have connections with gods must be treated specially.

   "Can we make him surrender his soul through coercion and trading?"

   "How much do you know about the King of Ghouls?" Lu Li asked Claire who proposed.

   "Uh...he's the king of all ghouls?"

   "Other than that."

   "Is he a different god?"

   "Obviously more than..." Elena corrected Claire's unreliable guess.

  Although the gods usually do not win by the number of believers, the number is indeed an intuitive manifestation of the power of the gods.

  How many followers does the King of Ghouls have?

  They have no way of knowing, but they can be sure that ghouls are everywhere from the main land to the barren lands, from the barren coast to the dark wilderness.

  Erina warned that if possible, it is best to maintain friendship with ghouls.

  The next meeting with the ghoul continued today's success—Lu Li offered a sacrifice, and the ghoul agreed to keep the appointment.

   After a busy day, everyone returned to the castle, waiting for the next day's banquet.
