Chapter 2167 Storm Ghost

After the alpha wolf confessed, Joan took a "command technique" on it, ordering it to go ahead and lead everyone to find the storm ghost.

The three of them, a bear, and a Tara beast followed the winter wolf into the glacier canyon. After half an hour, they arrived at the mine run by Bayerhof.

The scale of the mine is small, there are only six pits in total, and they are not connected to each other.

The head wolf confessed that the storm ghost was hiding in the "No. 1 Mine Pit".

Hearing this, Bayerhoff frowned, and said to Joan and Clark: "'No. 1 Mine' is the earliest and largest mining pit among all the pits. The tunnels inside are two miles deep and intricate. Even me The mine owner himself sometimes gets lost, if we go in directly, it will be difficult to catch the cunning storm ghost, but it is very likely to be ambushed by the other party."

Joan also felt that it was not a good idea to venture into the maze-like complex underground mines to search for enemies, so he took a "myth link" on the winter wolf's head, allowing it to enter the pit alone and trick the storm ghost out.

"Master Master, how can I trick him out?" the wolf asked with a bitter face.

"As you like, don't say you can't lie!" Joan said angrily.

The wolf had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk into the mine.

Joan shared vision with the alpha wolf through the "myth link", took out the "picture mirror", and projected what he saw on the mirror for Clark and Bayerhoff to watch. Mishka and Tara also came over, curious looking in the mirror.

The alpha wolf galloped in the dark tunnel, stopping occasionally to sniff around.

He ran and stopped like this, and finally got into a relatively open pothole, and shouted in the empty pothole: "Master Storm Ghost? Lord Storm Ghost?"

"There isn't even a ghost in the cave, what is this bastard talking about! Could it be a show for us?" Clark muttered wonderingly.

"The winter wolf's nose is sharper than that of a hunting dog. Even if it can't see where the storm ghost is hiding, it can still be sure that the storm ghost is hiding in the cave by sniffing the scent." The dwarf ranger made a more reasonable guess.

After listening to Bayerhof's judgment, Joan activated the "true seeing" attached to the prosthetic eye, looked around through the eyes of the wolf, and saw a hazy and strange figure hanging upside down in the mine like a bat Dome, silently observing the wolf in the dark.

Joan turned the "photo mirror" upside down so that he could observe the storm ghost from the front.

The shape of this monster looks a bit like a "spider elf" at first glance. Its spider-like lower body has four long legs, the ends of which are sharp like razors. They are deeply embedded in the ice, fixing the huge body up to 10 feet under the dome.

The humanoid torso of the Storm Ghost also has the characteristics of an insect creature. The off-white skin is tough and smooth, and its texture is closer to the exoskeleton of an insect.

What impressed Joan the most was the monster's head, which was in a weird conical shape, with a circle of eyes evenly distributed on the head, a total of 12 eyes, and a real 360° view without dead ends.

Joan had heard the rumors of "Storm Ghost" from Bayerhof.

It is said that this alien monster has the ability to create blizzards and is also very good at manipulating lightning, so it is called "Storm Ghost" by the polar natives who are afraid of his powerful power.

Due to traffic congestion, the Niflheim area has long lacked communication with the outside world. Joan couldn't find the corresponding entries for many local species in the "Vares Monster Guide".

For example, for the storm ghost in front of him, Joan didn't know what its "scientific name" was, and he couldn't even tell whether it was a "humanoid monster", "worm-shaped magic beast" or "strange monster" just by its appearance.

While he was secretly observing, the storm ghost suddenly broke the silence and questioned the wolf in the strange polar lingua franca.

"I'm in a hurry, what's the matter?"

The wolf followed the sound and looked up at the dome, and said tremblingly: "Sir Storm Ghost, it's still the incident just now... the Tara beast outside the canyon is too ferocious. It's really hard for me and my brothers to handle it. Please excuse me." Take action and help us hunt down the Tara beast."

"You're lying!" Storm Ghost suddenly interrupted the severed wolf and snapped.

"No, no! Lord Storm Ghost, how dare I lie to you? I swear it's all true!"

The alpha wolf panicked and defended.

However, the Storm Ghost didn't intend to listen to its explanation at all, turned over suddenly, and fell down in the air, with two front paws deeply inserted into the wolf's body, penetrating the internal organs, and blood spattered.

The chief wolf screamed in pain, turned his head and bit the storm ghost, trying to make a dying struggle.

The Storm Ghost stretched out his arms, strangled the wolf's neck swiftly and precisely, and forced its face to the ground, preventing it from biting or spitting cold currents at itself.

After just a few seconds, the alpha wolf stopped struggling in despair.

The storm ghost jumped away from the wolf corpse, and a series of neat hunting movements showed its cruel nature and strong physical fitness.

The incident happened suddenly, and Qiao An didn't have time to save the wolf.

As the head wolf was attacked, his breath gradually became weaker, and Joan's vision also rapidly dimmed.

Fortunately, before the alpha wolf died completely, he activated the "advanced internal vision technique" against time, and was able to see part of the storm ghost's details.

...

...

Storm Ghost's strong and balanced physical attributes, keen senses, climbing ability to walk on the ground, "advanced invisibility", and other unexplored special abilities make Joan convinced that in the depths of the mine pit with complex terrain It was too risky to fight this monster, so he stroked the mirror to activate the "remote viewing technique", and directly locked the monitoring angle on the storm ghost.

After thinking for a while, Joan thought of a feasible strategy to drive out the storm ghost, chanted a mantra in a low voice, and transformed his left little finger into 23 groups of Huangquan bee swarms.

Joan established a spiritual link with the hive will of the swarm, and ordered the swarm to fly into the mine to besiege the storm ghost.

Hundreds of Yellow Spring Bees roared into the mine, and soon came to the mine where the storm ghost was hiding.

The Storm Ghost poked his head out of the cave and took a look. Seeing the swarm of wasps from hell, his expression changed immediately, and he retreated into the cave in a hurry.

Under the remote control of Joan's thoughts, the bee swarm rushed into the mine like a red and black tide, chasing the storm ghost and biting wildly!

The storm ghost was stung by the poisonous needle and screamed. While fleeing with his head in his arms, his blue-gray skin flashed with lightning, and then he opened a supernatural halo with a radius of about 10 feet.
