Bizarre Detective Agency: Chapter 1379 21. Bloody fight

  Before the answer came the Ghoul Warlock.

  Lu Li was ready to face its questioning, but the warlock didn't care about the hostility of his subordinates. It focused on Lu Li's potential and wanted to help him become a ghoul warlock or ghoul leader.

   "You are pure, natural, warlock, skeleton."

   Ghoul Warlock should mean that Lu Li has the potential to become a Warlock, not a magic staff for a Warlock.

  Lu Li also tended to become a warlock. He may thus come into contact with the secrets of the ghoul race unknown to humans, as well as master the witchcraft of ghoul warlocks.

  And the status of warlocks is significantly higher than that of fighters.

  He may not be able to replace the ghoul warlock as the new leader of the lair.

  The ghoul warlock raised his cervical staff and lightly touched the ghoul warrior. The latter woke up from the nightmare and surrendered at Warlock and Lu Li's feet.

   "The loser, take care of the mine."

  Warlock motioned for Lu Li to follow.

  Before leaving, Lu Li summoned the ghoul that was gurgling foul blood from his chest, and said to the ghoul warrior, "My servant."

  The face of the ghoul warrior was close to the ground, and the ghoul also crawled obediently. ,

   This ghoul might still be useful. It can't die either, and the chest wound seems like a minor problem to the ghoul.

  Lu Li drilled out of the mine, followed the ghoul warlock to the depths of the lair, a warlock hut made of bones.

   Drilling into the bone hut, which seemed low to the warlock, the strong smell of blood and herbs entered his nostrils.

  Lu Li stopped the desire to sneeze, and swept through the scattered herbs and weird internal organs and limbs.

  It's like a wizard's cottage at the beginning of the weird age of savagery. Midnight City is also better than here, let alone Bright Land, which has improved the alchemy system and industrialized it.

   "Your soul has awakened."

  The ghoul warlock placed his spine stick by the side of the crucible, with his back facing Lu Li, without any warning.

"soul?"

  Lu Li pretended to be ignorant.

   "This city once belonged to human beings. The swamp swallowed it, and the soul fled. You belonged to one of them."

  Lu Li kept quiet.

   "Pure soul, natural warlock, you can be me."

  Lu Li opened his sharp teeth and asked, "Any other souls?"

   "There is no nest, but the blood plague group exists."

  Lu Li finally found a clue to the soul of Midnight City, but it was bad news.

   "All of them belong to the king."

  This means that the soul transformed into a ghoul no longer belongs to him.

   Lord of the Ghouls…

  Lu Li made a note, and planned to let the Land of Light try to contact the King of Ghouls after returning home, in exchange for the Soul of Night City.

  The ghoul warlock continued to say that becoming a warlock requires talent, which Lu Li already possessed. Next he needs to pray to the ghoul king for the power bestowed by the gods. But before that, the ghoul warlock had to prepare a secret medicine for Lu Li to take.

  The secret medicine will appear for Lu Li's next path: becoming a ghoul leader or a ghoul warlock.

   Or let Lu Li die suddenly - because he is not a real ghoul.

  Lu Li had another option, attacking the unsuspecting ghoul warlock who was facing away from him. Although the breath of the Ghoul King haunts it, its death will be known to the Ghoul King. But let it sink into dreamland and there will be no trouble...

It's just that Lu Li didn't do anything, and waited quietly for the ghoul warlock to smash herbs, stones, firewood, weird internal organs, and bone meal scraped off by the spinal rod, and use the boiling blood in the hanging pot as the base to mix a bowl of viscous, surging shadows. of filth.

   There is no doubt that this is a bowl of concoction that can transform humans into different species on the spot.

   "Drink, feel, guide."

  Ghoul Warlock held the stone bowl and handed it to Lu Li.

  Lu Li took it steadily, showing curiosity appropriately, and looked at the herbs behind the ghoul warlock.

   "Warlock, my lord, what is that?"

  The ghoul warlock turned his head to look at what Lu Li was wondering about, to explain the future warlock's doubts, and Lu Li took advantage of this to spill the concoction out of the bone hut.

  Boom—

  The stone bowl fell to the ground and broke into rubble. The ghoul warlock who turned his head nervously stared at Lu Li, who had loosened the empty bowl and his body had degenerated—

The two-meter body that evolved from fighting ghouls gradually shrank, his snout and claws gradually shortened and degenerated, and the tendons and bones under the rotten skin became thinner and thinner, and eventually became as thin as a ghoul warlock, and also Just a little higher than that.

  Lu Li used mimicry to make himself look like a ghoul warlock. It turned out well, and he saw an emotion called excitement in the rotting eyeball next to the welt.

   But there is one final hurdle to pass: Lu Li is a "squib" who doesn't know magic.

  Excited about the birth of a second warlock in the lair, the ghoul didn't ask Lu Li to cast spells yet, but sooner or later he would. And the time needed was earlier than Lu Li imagined—after being excited, the ghoul warlock began to ask Lu Li to cast spells.

  Lu Li tried to dig out the hidden beliefs, including the part about the King of Ghouls. Still failed to cast the spell, but enough to be considered a success by the ghoul warlock.

  Next, the ghoul warlock summoned all the ghouls in the lair and announced that Lu Li had been promoted to a warlock, endowed with a warlock skull, and would become the second leader of the ghoul lair.

   The condition of the ghoul lair.

  The lair's territory is similar to the castle, but its strength is much lower, but because of the protection of the king of ghouls, there is no weirdness to dare to touch this group of walking plague germs. The lair holds seventeen ghoul fighters and one hundred and thirty-three ghoul civilians.

  Then, the ghoul warlock told Lu Li what the lair already knew was preparing:

  Ghoul colonies from the east are ready to migrate, and they establish outposts on the border to trim the tribe. The source of their migration is the threat faced by this tribe called the blood plague in the east.

   This is the same as what Lu Li saw in the dream. But he doesn't think that's all.

  Because Ghoul Warlock is in such a hurry, like there is not much time.

   And it treats itself too well, as if this is not a ghoul lair but an orphanage.

   "What a threat."

   "No, I know."

   Obviously, Lu Li's status is not enough.

  But after the warlock advances, he will become a ghoul grand warlock—an existence higher than the ghoul leader.

   Later, the warlock prepared enough meat for Lu Li—an easy-to-digest rotten meat mass.

"I do not want to eat."

  The ghoul warlock didn't force him, but just screamed:

   "You will need it."

   Not long after, the ghoul warlock revealed its true purpose of training Lu Li - the ghoul warlock ordered Lu Li to go to the outpost of the blood plague tribe to participate in the **** fight instead.

  The ghoul warlock was supposed to participate, but Lu Li's appearance was considered by the warlock to be a scapegoat bestowed upon him by the king of ghouls.

  If Lu Li fails in the **** fight, it will join the blood plague group alive. Lu Li succeeded in the **** fight, and the lair was still independent—no matter what kind of thing it would not affect the purpose of the ghoul warlock.

  Just like what Lu Li did to that ghoul, now the victim is Lu Li.
