Suddenly, Zuo Zhicheng's eyes flashed with determination, as if he had made up his mind. He pulled out his dagger and stabbed it into the corpse of the ghoul in front of him.
The white ghoul, who was under general anesthesia, had no idea what was happening. Zuo Zhicheng cut open its skull and started searching through its brain.
Zuo Zhicheng kept searching through the ghoul's brain with his dagger as if he was picking vegetables.
'It should be here …' Zuo Zhicheng recalled all the information he knew about ghouls in his mind.
The ghoul's entire body could regenerate rapidly, but its brain was its weakness. Once it was crushed, it would die. If there was a Life Plexus, it must be in the brain.
In the next second, Zuo Zhicheng used his dagger to pick out a fluffy dandelion that looked like it had shrunk several times. This was the Life Plexus of ghouls, the Corpse Meridian.
It was a Life Plexus that was not even recorded in the Southern Sacred Sect's scriptures.
'Next is …'
Zuo Zhicheng touched his head and put the Corpse Meridian aside. He then shaved off all the hair on his head.
Even though he was in excruciating pain, Zuo Zhicheng's movements were steady. Soon, all his hair was shaved off by the dagger. Then, the tip of the dagger was pointed at Zuo Zhicheng's skull.
The pain made Zuo Zhicheng feel refreshed, but the blood around him kept trying to drag him into a deep sleep. He felt like his brain was half fire and half seawater.
'Transplanting the Life Plexus … The ghoul's Blood Curse is still the power of its Life Plexus. If it can be transplanted, it might be able to resist the Blood Curse and even break it.
'But it's too late to prepare for transplanting the Life Plexus.
'Although the chances are slim, I have no choice but to give it my all.'
In the next moment, Zuo Zhicheng slowly cut open his scalp with the dagger.
…
Dozens of minutes ago, three huge black warships were heading towards the island where the pirates were.
On the bow of the ship stood three men and one woman. They looked at the faintly discernible island in the sea. One of the men said, "They should be hiding here. I can already sense the evil aura."
The man had a head of white hair and a coarse beard. He was obviously a westerner. He was wearing a leather jacket and a cloak with a belt. There were all kinds of bottles and jars on the vest, and there was even a thin silver sword.
Hearing this, the girl beside him said, "Mr. Abel, are you sure?"
"There's no mistaking it. There's no way I would ever forget the stench of those ghouls." The white-haired man named Abel looked at the island in the distance with hatred. "I swear on my honor as a demon hunter that they are hiding on that island."
The girl nodded with an obvious arrogant look on her face. When she heard the word 'honor' from Abel, a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes. However, she obviously hid this trace of disdain.
The young girl turned her head and looked at the two gray-robed men beside her. With a respectful expression, she said, "Senior Brothers, that foreigner said that the ghouls are on the island in front of us. Should we attack now?"
She was speaking in a westerner's language before, but now she was speaking in Da Qi State's language. After hearing what she said, the two gray-robed men nodded gently.
The girl thought for a moment and hesitated. However, she still reminded them in the end, "According to what the foreigner said, those ghouls all have superhuman physiques and immortal bodies. They are very difficult to deal with. Demon hunters often suffer heavy casualties when dealing with those powerful ghouls.
Senior Brothers, please be careful when the battle starts. "
"Hmph." A disdainful snort came from the mouth of one of the gray-robed men. He said coldly, "Barbarians outside of civilization. You can call yourself a king just because of some unorthodox demons. How can you know the power of my Hundred Steps Flying Sword?"
The man took off the hat on his head, revealing a face with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. There was an extremely fierce aura coming from his body, giving people an extremely arrogant feeling.
Hearing him say this, the other man beside him also took off the hood on his head and said indifferently, "Since these ghouls are able to cause havoc, they must be extraordinary. We can't underestimate them."
Relatively speaking, this man was like an ordinary mortal. There was no sense of extraordinariness about him.
However, the arrogant young man from before was unusually respectful to him. He lowered his head and said, "Senior brother is right. However, I think that the reason why these ghouls are able to cause havoc is because they are good at hiding. That's why Wei Haijun's people haven't been able to find them. "
"Even so, we still have to be careful."
Ten minutes later, one of the warships headed toward the west of the island, while the other two warships circled around to the east of the island. They began to fire continuously at the pirate base.
Two gray-robed men, the young girl, and Abel disembarked from the ship on the west coast. They landed on the island and led 200 soldiers and several warriors to attack the pirate base by land.
The other two warships supported them on the sea, continuously launching artillery attacks and providing cover.
Not long after, waves of battle cries came from the forest on the island. The human army relied on strong bows, sharp blades, and their large numbers to easily get rid of several ghoul patrols in the forest.
However, when they passed through the forest, an earth-shaking roar came from the front. Then, one after another, countless roars came from the direction of the pirate base.
Abel's expression changed, and he hurriedly said to the young girl, "Not good, there are ghouls with the king's bloodline among these ghouls!"
"This foreigner is too cowardly. A few ghostly roars and he's already scared to this extent." The younger gray-robed man listened to the young girl and sneered, "What a monster. Today, I'll let you have a taste of the power of my flying sword. I'll also let you uncivilized barbarians know the power of the Central Plains. "
Before he finished speaking, he had already rushed out.
In the few encounters in the forest just now, the ghouls were almost all swarmed up. In an instant, their heads were exploded and their bodies were dismembered. In his opinion, the other party's strength was only so-so.
Seeing his figure flash and rush in the direction of the loud roar, Abel said anxiously, "What is he doing?! When dealing with ghouls, we must stick together. We can't go one by one! "
The young girl looked at the other gray-robed man with a calm expression and asked worriedly, "Senior Brother Li, I heard that the ghoul's pulse is long. I'm afraid it's not a good thing. Senior Brother Jin, will it be okay to rush over alone?"
"It's fine." The man called Senior Brother Li said casually, "With the flying sword in hand, even if we can't win, we can always escape."
