Chapter 111: Ghosts and Ghosts

Woz and Mira Jenny enter the eerie Blood Cloud Castle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info discovers that the castle, though deserted for a long time, is not as empty as they thought it would be - the sharp scratches indicate that there is something else here!

But these did not make the two of them shake and fear in the slightest, as S-class magicians, the two can be said to be well-informed, and they have encountered more bizarre situations in S-class missions, if it is just a monster with sharp minions, it is not worth their attention at all.

So at this moment, the two of them had no intention of retreating at all, but walked towards the depths of the castle with great interest.

With some preparation, the outer layer of the blood cloud is not a threat to Woz, and Mira Jenny is directly immune to the threat of the blood cloud. They are carefree, naturally more daring.

Walking through the hall to the back hall, Watts noticed that the light was much better, as the rooms here were even more dilapidated, with several large holes in the ceiling allowing sunlight to shine in directly. However, the temperature inside did not rise due to the direct sunlight, but was cooler than the antechamber. The sudden change in temperature even gave me goosebumps.

Mira Jenny subconsciously clenched her arms and looked back at the antechamber across the door, where the temperature was quite normal.

"Ahh

Waz turned his head and saw what Mila Jenny had pointed out - a dark red, translucent humanoid object that was whirring through the doorway, half of its body piercing through the stone wall of the doorframe!

It's a shame to see Mila Jenny, and if she were an ordinary girl, I'm afraid she would scream in fright and faint, right?

"It's ...... Ghosts?" Mira Jeanne looked curiously.

"This thing, strictly speaking, should it be called a 'ghost', right?" Waz pouted, in his opinion, only the original Mebis could be called a "ghost", and as for such a soulless and ugly and terrifying appearance, he did not want to call it a ghost!

"Well, it's ugly indeed. Mira Jenny nodded, "Then call it a ghost!"

Woz smiled helplessly: "You really hold a grudge, everyone has already disbanded, don't you still let them go?"

"It's all disbanded anyway, so you don't care about the name or anything, right?" said Mira Jenny, "Look, there are more ghosts in the front hall!"

Sure enough, just after Woz and the others left, the blood-colored ghosts in the front hall suddenly increased. They didn't seem to spot Woz and Mila Jenny, but were wandering around.

The ghosts flew around the room in a neat line, and as they skimmed through the blood cloud at the gate, they reached out and tore a piece of the blood cloud from it, and swallowed it inside. With each fragment of the blood cloud devoured, the blood of these ghosts became thicker. Occasionally, a few ghosts moved too much or couldn't react, and instead of tearing off the blood cloud fragments, they were swept into the blood cloud and never came out again.

I don't know if it was the accidental intrusion of Woz that triggered something, and a large number of ghosts continued to emerge from the walls of the castle, joining the ranks of preying on the fragments of the blood cloud.

Within a few tens of seconds of Woz's observation, hundreds of ghosts had gathered in the front hall! and there were signs of a multiplication. A single ghost may not pose the slightest threat, but this number even the most daring Woz has to face it.

Woz grabbed the magic book and pondered what kind of magic would have the effect of exorcism.

The ghosts gathered more and more, and soon they couldn't even squeeze into the front room. The ghost, unable to "eat", finally notices the two men in the back room. For ghosts with only the most basic instincts, there is not much difference between living people and food.

A large number of ghosts pounced on Woz and Mila Jeanne.

These ghosts, which can pass directly through entities, apparently have no physical attack capabilities. So Woz pulled Mira Jeanne behind him, and at the same time silently recited the word "bind, bind", and completely completed the large cross that had been slightly untied in order to cool down in the desert.

The ghosts threw themselves into Woz's body with a diving motion, and were immediately bounced away by an inexplicable force, letting out a piercing scream that could not be heard by human ears but sounded directly in his head.

"Sure enough, it's all a magic attack. Wox knew in his heart that his Great Cross Seal not only sealed all of his own magic power, but also turned Woz's body into a special physique that completely rejected magic power. This makes effect-based magic completely useless to Woz.

At this time, Woz, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly heard the terrible scream of a ghost behind him, and when he looked back, he was immediately startled, the back hall at this time was also full of ghosts! Woz's action of protecting Mira Jenny behind him did not make the slightest sense.

But Mila Jeanne, on the other hand, had a relaxed and natural expression, and gave Woz a comforting smile, standing still and letting the ghosts pounce on her.

Unlike Woz, the ghost that pounced on Mira Jenny's body was not ejected, and there was no next move. The silver-haired girl's body was like a bottomless black hole, devouring all the ghosts that pounced on her.

Waz was surprised but still a little uneasy, and used the "reading" talent to observe, only to find that those ghosts who rushed into Mira Jenny's body and tried to attack her did encounter the attack of a more powerful "soul body"! There is a huge and deep soul hidden in Mila Jenny's body, which is usually impossible to be discovered, but at this time, it was stimulated by the invading ghosts to appear, and directly opened their mouths to devour all of these ghosts, swallowed one by one, and ate to a great extent.

Sensing Woz's peeping, the soul didn't care, just turned its head to look at him, and continued its "food" journey.

These ghosts are considered to be unlucky to go to grandma's house, who is not good, but they bumped into the "devil" Mira Jenny, and her body received the most expensive demon soul "Satan's Soul"! Isn't this a direct delivery of food?

Seeing this, Wox also understood why Mira Jenny was not harmed in the slightest in this blood cloud. Because Mira Jenny's magic hair attribute is the top "evil", it is naturally impossible for the magic power of the Blood Cloud Castle, which is also an evil attribute, to cause any harm to her. It is even said that if Mira Jenny can now regain her strength and carry out a complete acceptance of the satanic spirit, she will be directly recognized by these brainless ghosts as their king!

Relieved, Wox took Mira Jeanne and continued deep into the castle, although ghosts and other things no longer need to be cared about, but there are too many of them, and they have completely occupied the front and rear halls. And they're so ugly that Woz can't stand it, so they have to hurry out of here and head to the second floor.

The second floor was indeed much cleaner, but the good times didn't last long, and soon a large number of ghosts poured up the stairs.

"How did they take the stairs? Can't they just go through the wall?" said Mira Jeanne curiously, "and the color has become darker!"

As the ghosts scrambled up the second floor, Woz noticed that the ghosts had begun to break away from their ethereal spirits and showed signs of physical form. Woz could clearly see the interaction that occurs when the two ghosts collide.

And in the process of pushing and shoving, from time to time, some ghosts with relatively dull colors are torn and devoured by other ghosts around them!

Woz knew that there weren't many ghosts left down there. After devouring the blood cloud fragments, these ghosts actually began to devour each other to strengthen them!

Thinking back to the fresh scratches they had seen in the antechamber, Woz came to a worrying conclusion.

"They're not going to just keep devouring each other and evolving, are they?"

Mira Jenny frowned, and suddenly reached out and grabbed a ghost, the ghost struggled desperately, and with a hard pull, he directly tore himself in half and escaped, leaving the remaining half in Mira Jenny's hands, and gradually atomized and absorbed by her.

Mira Jenny looked at Wox beside her, and quickly threw it away, causing a rush from the ghosts.

"Well, I didn't mean to absorb that!" she explained, a little flustered, her eyes lowered to see Woz's reaction. Mira Jeanne has always been concerned about what others think of her magic, after all, it is evil magic, and it has brought great misfortune to her and her family. After joining the guild, Mira Jenny no longer worries that Fairy Tail's companions will care about her "evil" attribute magic, especially Woz, and will not discriminate against her because of this.

But what Mila Jenny is worried about now is the "ugly" side of her magic - the reception of demonic souls should not be a girl's magic!

She was especially reluctant to show that in front of Woz right now.
