"Those corpse hounds are definitely stronger than the normal skeleton, especially the red ones. If we're not careful, we could really get hurt by them. Now that we have more weapons, we can better protect them!"
The corpse hounds that Doggy ntioned referred to the ghouls, and the red ones were the elite mini-boss, the Berserk Ghoul.
Kitsune hesitated for a mont, thinking that what Reji said indeed made sense. If there were even stronger monsters ahead, it would always be good for them to increase their strength. Even if there weren't, it could still speed up the exploration.
"Alright then..."
"Give it to this good fellow. I think this weapon is particularly suitable for him."
Seeing Kitsune looking towards him, it was obvious that she was letting him decide on the allocation of the weapon. Reji smiled slightly and gave the axe to the dog-faced man, as it was originally prepared for him anyway.
" Truly a teacher! You have a great eye. I, Doggy, reallyyy like you!"
Upon seeing Reji actually giving him the axe, Doggy couldn't be happier. He almost wanted to hug Reji's face and give him a kiss. His previous attitude towards Reji was actually not very enthusiastic, quite indifferent. But now, he imdiately did a 180-degree turn and started calling him teacher.
Beastn were just that simple, without many complicated thoughts.
Reji quite liked that.
So perhaps it was because he was in a good mood, seeing the dog-faced man hugging the axe with delight as if he had obtained a treasure, Reji deliberately sighed and said:
"Indeed, with a weapon, the temperant is different. Looking at this hero's appearance now, he quite resembles the legendary 'Desert Reaper.'"
"De-Desert Reaper?"
"That's right. It cos from an ancient book, telling the story of a region called 'Shurima.' It was also full of deserts. According to legend, there was a dog-headed deity who could reap souls, like a grim reaper, hence the title of Desert Reaper. It is said that his weapon was also an axe-staff."
Deity!
Reaping souls!
Grim Reaper!
Doggy was already extrely excited after getting the epic weapon, and now hearing this, he beca even more thrilled.
He puffed out his chest, trying his best to make a majestic pose, then skillfully twirled the axe in the air, and finally made a heavy chopping and smashing motion forward. Afterwards, he eagerly turned his head and asked Reji with great anticipation:
"Teacher, teacher, how is it? Do I have the look of that, of that Desert Reaper?!"
"Exactly the sa!"
Reji imdiately nodded in affirmation.
"Hahaha, did you hear that? Don't call Doggy anymore. From now on, I'll be called the Desert Reaper! This na is great! It sounds so good! As expected of teacher, being educated makes a difference!"
The simpler-minded one was, the more they actually valued titles and the like, and the more they liked those that sounded domineering and heroic.
And very obviously...
For this second-in-command of the Animal Gang, the na "Doggy" given to him by Kitsune was clearly not even worth a hair compared to Reji's "Desert Reaper."
Hmph!
The white-haired woman was a bit displeased.
Kitsune pouted her lips. Although she couldn't say much, she snorted to express her unhappiness.
Now that he had obtained a great weapon and a flashy new na, Doggy, a bit carried away, quickly composed himself.
"Doggy, don't forget that this weapon is only temporarily lent to you. After we leave the dungeon, you still have to return it to him. These treasures all belong to the teacher. We are not allowed to take a single one, you hear ?!"
"I... I understand, Boss."
"If you understand, then what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and lead the way! Since you got the weapon, do more work!"
"Yes! Boss!"
The dog-faced man, holding the axe, took the lead and directly rushed to the very front of the team. At this mont, he was obviously surging with fighting spirit, eager to test his new weapon on the monsters of the dungeon.
When more than a dozen ghouls in front were attracted by Doggy's movent and imdiately surrounded and attacked him, Doggy did not retreat but advanced. With one hand holding the axe in front of his chest, he smashed and chopped at them as soon as they t.
Bang!
The first ghoul that ca into contact with the end of the axe-staff was directly smashed into minced at under the enormous force.
Previously, although Doggy also had monstrous strength, it hadn't reached this level. It was very obvious that the arcane runes and spell patterns on the axe had enhanced Doggy's attack, allowing his power to be amplified.
With such a sharp weapon, Doggy let out a loud roar, like a war god descending to the mortal world. He forcefully swung the axe, directly sending seven or eight ghouls flying, and with another heavy axe smash, he instantly killed more than half of the ghoul group in one strike.
Doggy's huge commotion seed to have attracted an even greater threat. At this mont, from the darkness, a crimson ghoul that seed to have been lurking for a long ti found an opening in Doggy's defense and suddenly pounced from the rock wall on the ceiling.
Caught a bit off guard, Doggy had nowhere to retreat. He could only use the axe as a shield, placing the staff's handle horizontally above his head to block the Berserk Ghoul's bite.
Crack!
The Berserk Ghoul's sharp teeth imdiately bit into the axe's handle. However, even such sharp teeth couldn't leave the slightest mark on the axe. With the enchantnt's reinforcent, the indestructible axe was like the most solid divine weapon, leaving the Berserk Ghoul helpless.
Seeing this, Doggy beca even more excited and thrilled. He exerted force with both arms, pushing the Berserk Ghoul away, then rotated the axe to the axe blade position and chopped down at the Berserk Ghoul's body with a backhand.
Splat!
Even the Berserk Ghoul's tough skin seed to be fragile in front of the axe, imdiately suffering a horrific wound, not even giving the ghoul a chance to catch its breath.
Seizing the opportunity, Doggy delivered another axe strike, directly chopping the Berserk Ghoul's head into a pulp, thoroughly killing it.
After just two or three rounds of engagent, the Berserk Ghoul was slain by Doggy, causing the other beastn of the Animal Gang, who had originally wanted to provide support, to be amazed.
They were, of course, clear about the ferocity of that kind of red ghoul. For Doggy to kill it so easily, that axe weapon definitely played a crucial role.
When Doggy returned with extre pride, looking at the axe in his hand, although it was stained with a lot of ghouls blood, the axe blade remained sharp as ever, without the slightest trace of wear and tear.
Envy!
Jealousy!
Craving!
Craving to death!
This was probably the ntal state of all the beastn in the Animal Gang.
Especially for the third-in-command, the crocodile-head.
His strength was actually similar to Doggy's. Now, seeing Doggy displaying his prowess and looking so imposing, even if the two of them were good brothers and from the sa tribe, he was still sour with jealousy.
I... I also want to have such a powerful weapon!
