Chapter 497: There are ghosts
"It's been a long time since I've seen such a heavy punishment for a quest, so I have to defeat the man named Hannibal. Durrant's guy, otherwise the system will deduct Lao Tzu 2 levels. ”
After turning off the taskbar, Ruan Chi took Diana to walk forward in a random direction, there was no way, now it was gray all around, and he couldn't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest, so he could only walk casually.
However, what Ruan Chi didn't expect was that things were far more complicated than he imagined, from just now, Ruan Chi walked a distance of two or three thousand meters, but the road has never ended.
"No way, the island in the middle of the lake is definitely not that big."
Ruan Chi hurriedly stopped and opened the system map, and as a result, Ruan Chi's brows furrowed even more, because the map showed that except for two points of light, the specific terrain could not be seen at all.
It feels like falling into a subspace.
"Is there something wrong?"
Ruan Chi touched his chin and thought for a while, then stretched out a hand to grab the gray mist in front of him, and then he activated atheism.
A magical scene happened.
The gray mist that was originally slowly flowing seemed to be ignited, and exploded with a "pop", and at the moment it exploded, Ruan Chi saw a clear scenery appear in front of him.
However, this scenery was soon obscured by the reconverging gray fog, and Ruan Chi's eyes were once again gray.
"I see!"
Ruan Chi suddenly realized, then grabbed Diana, who was dazed, and said, "I'm going to rush out later, you grab me and don't let go." ”
"Oh!"
Although she didn't understand the situation, the second middle school girl subconsciously believed Ruan Chi.
Ruan Chi unleashed atheism again. The fog ahead was blasted open again. It was at that moment that clear view appeared. Ruan Chi immediately launched another spear stabbing assault, and his figure followed a blur, and rushed out with a "brush".
Diana, who was pulled by Ruan Chi, only felt that her body was pulled hard by Ruan Chi, and when she reacted, she found that the fog around her was completely gone.
"Teacher, why is this happening?"
Diana blinked, and found that she was already standing on that small island in the middle of the lake, which was even more amazing. Jialan, Shirley, and Ampeggy were also standing next to them, but they looked dull, as if they had fallen into some kind of magic barrier.
"It's psychic magic like the Wall of Weeping, and we've been hit by the enemy's magic from the moment we flew over the lake just now." Ruan Chi said.
Diana didn't understand very well, and just nodded blankly when she heard the words.
Ruan Chi tried to walk in front of the three girls of Jialan and activate atheism, but he couldn't pull them out of the demonic barrier. Obviously, this magic works from their hearts. If they want to destroy it, they can only rely on themselves.
"Forget it, anyway, we'll kill the enemies who manipulate this magic in a while, and they'll wake up." After trying a few times, it didn't work, but Ruan Chi simply chose to give up.
The gaze then fell on the only building on the island.
The building is huge, covering an area of about two-thirds of the entire island in the middle of the lake, with a dilapidated appearance, and the earthy mud walls are crawling with various vine plants, and it feels like it has been vacant for a long time.
Walking forward with Diana, he collided head-on with a rusty iron gate, and through it, Ruan Chi could see a long-deserted, overgrown garden inside.
"Squeak!"
As Ruan Chi pushed open the iron gate, a goosebump-inducing sound sounded, as if to tell the world the tragic past experience of this abandoned building.
"Smack!"
As soon as he walked in, Ruan Chi just stepped on a withered branch, and as a result, there was a crisp cracking sound, which startled Diana behind him.
Ruan Chi looked at the middle two girl with a pale face, and couldn't help but raise his forehead and said, "Eldest sister, isn't your ideal to be an adventurer?" That's too little guts, isn't it? ”
Diana blushed and said astringently, "I...... I'm afraid there are ghosts here. ”
"Ghosts?" Ruan Chi looked at her puzzled, what is this?
"Teacher, don't you think this kind of place is eerie? There will definitely be some ghosts, ghosts and things like that. Diana said matter-of-factly, holding one of Ruan Chi's hands and trembling.
Ruan Chi's face was suddenly full of black lines, and he said in his heart, this guy's personality is usually arrogant, as if he is not afraid of heaven and earth, but he didn't expect to be afraid of such a thing as ghosts?
In order to dispel the fear of the second middle girl, Ruan Chi patted her on the shoulder and said bitterly: "The ghost settings of the Miracle Continent are all undead creatures, and the undead creatures are also a strange kind, so there is nothing to be afraid of at all." As an adventurer, you can't be intimidated by ghosts. ”
"But...... People are still scared. ”
"Are you afraid of hair? Let's not say that ghosts are nothing to be afraid of, and besides, there are no ghosts in this place. Ruan Chi said loudly.
However, as soon as Ruan Chi's words fell, Diana's little face suddenly turned pale, and she stretched out a green onion finger to point behind Ruan Chi, trembling all over.
"What are you doing?" Ruan Chi looked at her suspiciously.
"Out of ...... appeared, there was ...... There are ghosts! Diana was so scared that she couldn't even speak, and in the end, she simply screamed.
Ruan Chi frowned and twisted his head back.
However, what greeted Ruan Chi was a rusty scythe, which was inserted into Ruan Chi's left eye, and with a "poof" sound pierced through the back of his head, and the red and white brain and plasma splashed directly on Diana's face.
"I'm dizzy!"
Diana just said this, and Mei Mei fainted as soon as she rolled her eyes, and Ruan Chi stood in the posture of being pierced by a sickle.
He didn't fight back, but stared at the guy attacking him with his other eye.
There's no doubt about it, it's a ghost, well, a ghost or something. The whole body is like a dreamlike light mist, vaguely translucent, with a white cloth draped outside, only two holes in the face are exposed, flashing with devouring red light.
The gaze fell on the ghost's head. I didn't see any names or blood bars floating there. This situation. It is simply impossible to do anything other than dead things.
Ruan Chi raised his forehead and said, "What is this, is it an illusion?" As he spoke, he opened the system map, which showed that there was a red dot of light less than a hundred meters away from him.
Looking in that direction, there was a bright red name suspended above a pile of weeds - Graddy.
"Is that the real thing?" Ruan Chi muttered.
"Whew!"
At this time, the ghost pulled out the scythe inserted in Ruan Chi's left eye, and slashed it horizontally, pointing at Ruan Chi's neck.
"Enough!"
Ruan Chi's fingertips were already mixed with a gold coin at some point, and then launched the Titan Arrow.
"Crackle!"
Pale blue lightning shot out. The scythe swung by the ghost also froze in front of Ruan Chi's neck, and in the next second, the ghost's body turned into a cloud of black smoke and disappeared.
Not far from where Ruan Chi was standing, a thin figure apparently came out, he was half-kneeling on the ground, and a large blackened hole was pierced through his abdomen, which was the masterpiece of the Titan Arrow.
"You...... How do you see it? The man's mouth kept spilling blood, and he looked at Ruan Chi with a painful expression.
"Big brother, where is such a big name on your head, it's hard for me to pretend I can't see it." Ruan Chi spread his hands.
"Don't think you can defeat me by seeing through my ghostly vision. Look at the moves. The man jumped out of the weeds with a glittering dagger in his hand.
"Walk you!" Ruan Chi fires the second Titan Arrow. Just hit it.
The man in mid-air snorted coldly, his body writhed strangely in the air, and he actually dodged the thunder that shot over.
However, when the Titan Arrow was hit by the system correction, he couldn't dodge it at all, and a sneer on his face quickly froze, replaced by horror and incomprehension.
"Boom!"
The thunder light circled around the man's back and hit the man's back door again, the man's body was shocked, and he was directly pierced by the Titan Arrow, and his body fell to the ground in two, bursting out a pile of gold and silver coins.
System: You killed Graddy (NPC) and gained 16121 experience points.
Ruan Chi stepped forward, touched some valuable drops from the corpse, and then looked at the guy who could summon ghost visions.
"Is it really them?" Ruan Chi touched his chin and muttered.
I saw the corpse on the ground, it was clearly a cursed child, it seemed that it was still a mixture of elves and humans, it was a member of the Dream Circus that Ruan Chi had seen once in Modern Fort when he participated in the HRE Cup competition.
"Is it really them?"
Ruan Chi was actually not very sure at first whether the dream circus he had seen was the one who killed those nobles.
Now the answer is clearly yes.
"It's funny to think that a circus is so hidden."
Ruan Chi smiled, and then walked over to call Diana, who was stunned by the ghost.
"Ah, don't help, don't kill me."
As soon as she woke up, Diana screamed, Ruan Chi reached out and patted her on the head, and said angrily: "Wake me up, don't make any more noise." ”
"Old ...... Teacher? Diana's eyes were still filled with tears, and when she saw Ruan Chi in front of her, she was so frightened that she retreated again and again, "Don't kill my teacher, you...... You and your old man can go in peace, I and I will pay more respects to you in the future. ”
Rub, feelings this guy thinks I'm hanging?
Ruan Chi couldn't cry for a while, reached out and grabbed the girl's cheek and pinched it violently, and then said, "Show me clearly, Lao Tzu is alive and well." ”
"Oh, it hurts." Feeling the pain, Diana saw Ruan Chi in front of her clearly, she reached out and touched Ruan Chi's face, and then said in surprise: "Teacher, isn't your head pierced by a ghost?" Why doesn't it seem like there's anything going on at all? ”
"You're mistaken." Ruan Chi said expressionlessly.
"Yes...... Is it? When Diana heard this, she suddenly showed a blank expression, touched her forehead and muttered: "Am I really wrong, but I can see it clearly......"
Reading and reading, Diana was not at ease, looked around cautiously and asked, "That...... Teacher, what about the ghost that attacked you just now? ”
"Destroy it for me." Ruan Chi understated.
"Huh?" Diana looked at Ruan Chi with admiration on her face, and her eyes lit up and said, "Teacher, you are really powerful, you are not even afraid of ghosts." ”
The corners of Ruan Chi's mouth twitched slightly, and he raised his forehead and said: "That's enough, you guy still said that his ideal is to be an adventurer, but he was actually stunned by a ghost, I think you should go home and be your eldest lady." ”
"Teacher, it's not right for you to say that, ghosts, ghosts are very scary things, when I was a child, when I slept at night, I often didn't dare to pee alone."
"......" Ruan Chi suddenly turned around and walked forward without saying a word.
"Huh? Teacher, where are you going? ”
"Go poop."
“……”
At the same time, on the outskirts of the Daredevil Swamp, St. Snowwin of the Storm, and Gabrida of the Cape of Sparta, the two of them led a raiding party to arrive here quickly.
However, when they stepped into this land, Akatsuki and Frost Moon had risen to the highest point, and the people of the raiding party encountered a lot of trouble along the way.
Although the number of the crusade team is not very large, there are at least hundreds of people, plus the investigation team led by Su Lu, the group is mighty, and the momentum is obviously a bit big.
These demonic beasts that inhabited the Night Demon Swamp would attack when they smelled anger, and such a huge life aura of this group of hundreds of people naturally attracted the attention of a large number of demonic beasts.
As a result, the crusade team caused a huge tide of beasts, including dozens of high-level demonic beasts.
Looking at the soldiers of the crusade team who were fighting hard, Sandinigo, an adjutant of the Horn of Sparta, couldn't help frowning slightly, "It's just some beasts that have delayed us so much." ”
"Hehe, or we'll do it ourselves." Gabrilida, who was riding a warhorse, laughed.
"General, there is no need for this, I am enough for a beast tide of this scale." Sandinigo snorted coldly, and a purple Gaia battle aura erupted from his body, and then he clamped the war horse under his crotch, and a charge joined the battle group in front.
I have to say that as the latest rise of the human race, the horn of Sparta has enough capital to be proud of, but as soon as Sandinigo joined the battle group, the battle that was originally in a state of stalemate immediately changed, and every time he stabbed a shot, the body of a demonic beast was penetrated.
"The Horn of Sparta really lives up to its name, and a little lieutenant has such ability that he deserves to be a victorious teacher." Sitting on another horse, Snowwin commented with a smile.
Hearing Snowwin's words, Gabrilida said modestly: "Your Excellency has won the prize, the name of the victorious division was fought back by the old general in his previous life, and our second-generation Spartan horn has never even been on the real battlefield, so I really dare not call ourselves a victorious division." ”
"Sooner or later, the real battlefield will have a chance." Snowwin said meaningfully.
"Your Excellency, you mean the battle for the throne with half a year to go?" Gabrielda groaned as he touched the stubble on his chin.
Snowwin smiled and didn't answer, and by this time, with Sandinigo's addition, the battle over there was over. (To be continued......)
