Wang Jue unsheathed his sword and quickly turned around.
A melancholic figure stood behind him.
Wang Jue was so frightened that he slashed with the Sword of Winter right away.
However, the sword blade pierced through the figure's body as though it had cut through the air.
The Wolf Cavalrymen and the others looked at each other, not knowing what had happened.
Except for the necromancer, Elizabeth.
However, she did not say anything and stood at the side expressionlessly, as if it was none of her business.
Then, Wang Jue had calmed down.
He recalled the obsession mentioned in the strategy guide.
"Human, I have been dead for over ten thousand years. I have no malice towards you.
"The only reason I'm still present is because of my obsession.
"Are you willing to help me dispel my obsession and let me rest in peace?"
The Evil Demon Hunter spoke again.
At the same time.
The hint also appeared.
[The soul of Evil Demon Hunter, Autlan · Wind, and his only remaining bit of obsession left in the world. If you help him fulfill his wish, you might be able to receive great rewards.]
Wang Jue had no reason to refuse.
With the advice from the guide, he chose to accept.
"I'm willing to help you."
A stiff smile appeared on the Evil Demon Hunter's face.
It looked pretty creepy.
"Thank you, human."
"My request is very simple.
"Please bring my body back to my hometown and bury it beside the Gushing Spirit Well.
"I'm a child of the elves. I ultimately have to return to the arms of the elves…"
The Evil Demon Hunter spoke slowly.
His figure gradually disappeared.
A ring slowly materialized in front of Wang Jue.
When he reached out and grabbed it, the ring automatically slipped onto Wang Jue's index finger.
Wang Jue could feel the coldness of the ring. This wasn't an illusion.
[This is a spatial ring. The obsession has entered the ring. Only by completing his final wish can you open this spatial ring.]
Gushing Spirit Well…
"What a coincidence. I'm afraid I'm the only person who can fulfill your wish."
Wang Jue muttered softly.
The elves had long disappeared, and the Gushing Spirit Well had become extinct.
Now, there was only a Gushing Spirit Well in Wang Jue's territory.
This was fate.
"Let's move forward. The next mission is to explore the dungeon and find the body of an Evil Demon Hunter."
Wang Jue explained briefly.
He realized that other than himself and Elizabeth, no one else could see the soul of the Evil Demon Hunter.
Everyone nodded, indicating that they understood.
Even the aloof Elizabeth nodded cooperatively.
It seems that this fellow is just unapproachable. She still sympathizes with dead souls and the like.
"Let's go, let's continue going forward!"
After confirming the quest objective, everyone headed towards the corridor.
This corridor was very long, as if there was no end to it.
Who knew where this corridor connected to?
No one wanted to stay in this dark place any longer.
Everyone could not help but speed up.
Ten minutes later.
They finally saw the end.
A strange cross hung at the end.
However, they were still a step too late.
A few crawling black figures suddenly appeared at the end of the corridor.
Their shadows were elongated by the candlelight.
The next moment, these shadows crawled in from both sides of the end.
This allowed Wang Jue to get a clear look at them.
There was no skin on their heads, only bright red muscles.
Their large mouths stretched so wide that they almost reached their cheeks, and the sharp teeth inside were like the wheels of a shredder.
They were on all fours, completely naked, without any hair or skin.
Their joints were twisted and deformed, and the spines on their arched back broke out, with bone spurs extending from them.
They looked like hyenas that had crawled out of hell.
These monsters gradually gathered at the end of the corridor.
At the same time, a few black shadows were still rushing over.
They were waiting for reinforcements.
These fellows stared fiercely at Wang Jue and company with fierce gazes.
"More trash from the Undead.
"These rotten creatures are disgusting."
The Wolf Cavalryman Barud said.
Wang Jue narrowed his eyes and looked over.
[Ghoul LV 10]
[Race: Undead]
[Bite Damage: 27~30]
[Health Points: 200]
[Armor: 0]
[Skill: Frenzy (Increases Ghoul's attack speed and movement speed by 5%, Lasts 60 seconds, Cooldown: 5 minutes); Necrophagous (Consumes corpses to restore Health Points), Passive Skill, Corrosive Poison LV2 (Attack lasts 3 seconds, corrosive poison deals 3 damage points per second)]
At this moment, two more shadows crawled over.
There were six ghouls now.
With Wang Jue's current combat strength, there was nothing to fear!
"Kill these rotten things!"
Wang Jue pointed his sword and gave the order to attack.
The corridor was wide.
The two Wolf Cavalrymen roared and charged forward.
Hong Wan led his men to attack too.
Wang Jue turned around.
Elizabeth, who was behind him, raised her tree-root like staff when she sensed Wang Jue's gaze.
After a short chanting, two Necromancer Arrows shot out!
This was her skill, Double Necromancer Arrows!
Wang Jue nodded in satisfaction.
He lifted his sword and walked forward.
In such an environment, the ghouls had no advantage.
Even though their agility was higher than the earlier monsters, they were still unable to dodge the Wolf Cavalrymen.
And they were all squishy monsters without armor.
Elizabeth's Double Necromancer Arrows alone could take out more than half of the ghouls' health points.
This time, Wang Jue was very relaxed throughout.
When he walked over with his sword in hand, the battle had basically ended.
…
The life of an Overlord was so simple and unadorned.
[Your subordinate, the Wolf Cavalrymen, has killed the LV 8 Ghoul. You have received 200 EXP.]
[Your subordinate, Carl has killed LV 7 Ghoul. You have received 200 EXP.]
[Your subordinate, Elizabeth has killed the LV 8 Ghoul. You have received 200 EXP.]
…
The six ghouls were quickly eliminated.
Wang Jue quickly finished plundering the rewards and didn't rush to check them. Instead, he headed straight to the end of the corridor.
Here, there was a walkway on both sides. It was a crossroad.
However, that wasn't the main point. The main point was that Wang Jue had discovered the Evil Demon Hunter's corpse.
His body was tied to a cross.
The cross was hung straight at the intersection.
It was very obvious.
On the wall behind him, there were many strange runes drawn with either blood or red paint.
Numerous nails were stuck in Evil Demon Hunter's body, as if it had undergone some kind of vicious curse ritual.
Wang Jue focused his gaze.
Immediately, information appeared.
[Autlan · Wind's corpse]
Wang Jue no longer looked at it. He waved his hand and stored it into the space hide backpack.
