Chapter 77: Primitive Ghouls!
— The appearance of these ghouls is a bit strange, " Yuna whispered. Even she had never seen anything like it.
— Such ghouls are very rare in the 24th district? Su Xiao asked.
— Quite. I've been exploring this area for half a year, but this is the first time I've seen such ghouls.".
— Kisho Arima, you've been exploring the 24th district for a long time, have you seen such ghouls before?
But Kisho Arima didn't answer Yuna's question, just walked around the corner.
Su Xiao felt that Kisho Arima probably knew something.
When he first met Kisho Arima, Su Xiao had a strange feeling. He felt that he didn't look like a human. Only ghouls could possess such a powerful body.
However, this was only Su Xiao's guess. He saw with his own eyes how Kisho Arima ate human food, and then for a long time did not show any deviations.
Given that, Kisho Arima couldn't possibly be a ghoul.
His body had the power of a ghoul, but his habits weren't inherited from ghouls.
While Su Xiao was thinking, Kisho Arima had already come around the corner and was holding his kuinke "Narukami" in his hands.».
Narukami is an "S+" class kuinkyo, and he had three forms.
The first form was that of a cannon for long-range attacks.
The second form was of the "claw" type, and in this form kuinke could release electric balls.
The third form was the sword form.
Right now, Kisho Arima was holding a sword.
— One person to one ghoul, we must kill them as quickly as possible, " Kisho Arima looked at Su Xiao. The meaning of his words was obvious.
Kisho Arima's words made Su Xiao even more confused. These two ghouls weren't strong and he could handle them alone.
He wanted to see its power? This was unlikely, as these two ghouls were not even up to the test.
After entering the 24th district, Su Xiao often had doubts. There were some secrets in the area, and Kisho Arima probably knew about some of them.
But he and Kisho Arima didn't know each other, and he wasn't a kind-hearted person, so he would need to find out for himself.
— Understood.
Su Xiao took the sword and stood beside Arima Kisho.
The two ghouls were engrossed in their meal and didn't notice the two of them.
Kisho Arima stretched out three fingers and started counting down...
After a few moments, they both rushed towards the two ghouls at the same time.
Immediately, Su Xiao discovered that Kisho Arima was very fast, almost as fast as him.
This made Su Xiao even more skeptical that Kisho Arima was a human. His agility had reached 13 points, but could a person in this world have 13 points of agility?
Su Xiao and Kisho Arima were at the ghouls ' side at the same time.
Two ghouls reacted, but there was a cold glare and now one head flew into the air.
Su Xiao instantly killed his opponent.
Looking up, he saw that Kisho Arima also had a headless body lying in front of him.
Yuna stared at the two people in a daze. She knew about Arima Kisho's strength, but she didn't think Su Xiao was his equal.
— Damn it, am I the weakest? Yuna was displeased, but there was nothing she could do.
After Su Xiao killed the ghoul, Heaven sent him a notification.
[You killed a Diakme resident.
Your Ghoul Control contribution points have been increased by 46 points, your reputation with the Diakme tribe has reached a value of "-92", as your reputation has dropped below the value of "-50", members of the Diakme tribe will actively attack you whenever possible.]
After reading this notification, Su Xiao was even more confused.
What is this Diakme tribe? Such an organization did not exist in the original story's plot.
*Pouf*
Kisho Arima opened the back of the ghoul's body and took out kakuhou.
— Their kakuhou are very valuable. If you want to get a quick promotion, you have to hand them over to the Information Investigation Department of the 24th district — " Kisho Arima opened his bag, took out a bottle of water, washed the blood off kakuhou, and put him in his backpack.
Su Xiao knew it himself when he took out kakuhou his ghoul. After touching his kakuhou, he saw a new notification from Paradise.
[You have found a kakuhou (Type 1) that can be used to exchange for 40 contribution points from the Ghoul Control Department.]
Whether it was killing these primitive ghouls or selling them to kakuhou, he could get a large amount of contribution points from the Ghoul Control Office.
Contribution Points for killing primitive ghouls were ten times more than for killing ghouls in any other area.
The reason for this was unclear to Su Xiao. Riddles appeared one after another, and the entire area became more mysterious.
Just when they wanted to continue advancing deeper, a pair of red eyes glared at the three of them with hatred.
A ghoul appeared 100 meters away from them.
— Kisho Arima showed a worried expression for the first time.
This ghoul looked like a primitive human. When he saw the bodies of the two ghouls, he made two very strange sounds.
— The sounds were short and sharp, but they instantly reverberated throughout the tunnel.
Kisho Arima changed the shape of his kuinkyo...
*Boom!*
The golden electric ball hit right into that ghoul's body.
The ghoul jerked and fell to the ground. He died because of that one hit.
Kisho Arima slightly closed his eyes, and his expression became a little ugly.
— Get ready, Yuna, stand behind me — " Kisho Arima pressed the button on his briefcase and his second kuinkyo appeared in his hands.
A quinque of the "IXA" type of the "S+" class could apply various forms. It was a weapon for both attack and defense.
— Where is the enemy? Su Xiao looked serious. Although he couldn't see the enemy, Arima Kisho's strange behavior alerted him.
— Soon... Before Arima Kisho could finish, Su Xiao already felt a slight vibration.
It seemed to him that thousands of horses were running headlong on both sides of the tunnel.
— У-у, у-ун-у-у-ун~...
That strange sound came again.
Ghouls appeared in two directions, front and back. Both paths were blocked.
These ghouls were all dressed like primeval humans. Grass skirts and tooth necklaces. Some of the primitive ghouls had strange tattoos on their faces.
If one looked at them more closely, one would find that this pattern represented a bloated fish.
As all those primitive ghouls rushed forward screaming, dust rose up.
— Fucked up, " Su Xiao swore. At a conservative estimate, there were at least three hundred primitive ghouls on both sides of the passageway.
— Although we haven't fought together yet, let's watch each other's backs or else we'll all die, " Su Xiao looked at Kisho Arima, and Kisho Arima nodded at Su Xiao.
— You are responsible for the left side, I am responsible for the right, the main thing is not to let yourself be surrounded.
In a battle like this, it was easy to be surrounded, especially in the current conditions.
— What should I do? Yuna asked with bitterness and a hint of helplessness.
— Su Xiao gripped the hilt of his sword tightly and prepared himself.
Although Su Xiao was only a senior investigator and was one level below Yuna, ranks didn't matter in this situation.
— Chu~... A primitive ghoul that looked like a leader let out a short cry. The primordial ghoul picked up a long tree root with a few bird feathers on the end, and after that, all the ghouls rushed towards Su Xiao like they were mad.
