"Forty ghost spotters are dead? Has there been another large-scale disaster? ”

It is definitely not a trivial matter to let more than forty ghost hunters die. After all, hundreds of people were sacrificed in the last Soul Hunting Event, and not a single ghost hunter fell.

"There are far more ghost hunters who have died in the past few days, we in the Ghost Hunter Association alone know more than a hundred people, and these are just the artifacts we collected when we investigated some of the causes of death." "Our intelligence capabilities are also limited, and maybe more ghost hunters have fallen, but we don't know about it. ”

Listening to the meaning of the words of the two or five women, these ghost hunters did not die collectively, but died independently of each other.

"Did you find out what?"

"No, because of the beginning of the Cold Night Festival, countless victims have appeared, and it has also caused panic among many more people. Those people died mysteriously in unnatural ways, and these ghost hunters seemed to be just an ordinary part of those who died. ”

Although it is only hearsay, I also have a little understanding that for nearly a week, the news has reported various deaths one after another. Some even say that the number of unnatural deaths in this city alone has reached 10,000 in a short period of time.

The sheer number of deaths, as well as the unusual weather, have terrified many people. But no one knows where to flee, after all, the same events are happening in various other places at the same time.

"Maybe they're just ordinary victims." I made my guess.

They individually pulled out the ghost hunters among the victims to investigate, and they didn't seem to find anything special.

"I know you'll think so, on the surface, these dead ghost hunters are no different from other victims. But I'll tell you a set of data, and maybe you'll understand. "According to our statistics, from six days ago to three days ago, there were 6,300 people in the city who could not determine the cause of death, of which one hundred and seven could be identified as ghost hunters. And the city has 1.2 million inhabitants, of which there are about 700 known ghost hunters. ”

What does this mean?

Slow down......

That is to say, in the past six days, the number of accidental deaths of ordinary people in the city is about 1 in 200% of the total number. But half of the ghost hunters died.

"In other words, the mortality rate of ghost hunters is much higher than that of others!"

At this rate, in less than a month, all the ghost hunters in the city will be dead.

"Now do you stick to what you thought before?" The two or five women asked, picked up a peachwood sword and began to check.

The death of the Cold Night Festival is supposed to be an attack by the evil spirits of the riot. Originally, most evil spirits were not rational and should not have chosen their targets so precisely

"Could it be because of the peculiarities of the ghost hunter itself? These traits cause the Ghost Hunter to attract the attention of evil spirits even more. ”

"There is this possibility, for example, many ghost hunters are more powerful than ordinary people's souls, but these are not absolute, and the different factions of ghost hunters require different talents. Some rely on powerful souls to cast spells, some rely on spiritual weapons and spells, and some rely on formations. But so far, there have been a large number of deaths among the ghost hunters of all factions. The second and fifth women took a deep breath, "So, it is very likely that at the beginning of the Cold Night Festival, some evil forces had already targeted the ghost hunters. It's just that we don't know where they are hiding, what their purpose is, and whether they are evil spirits or humans! ”

It turns out that the ghost hunter has been targeted? Sister Ying and Little Lori are also very powerful ghost hunters, will they also encounter danger? Chubby and Lu Qing are also determined to become a member of the Ghost Hunter, but they have never participated in the training of the Ghost Hunter who is serious about it, will they also be targeted?

"We have tried our best to remind ghost hunters to stay safe through various channels." The second and fifth women explained, "You are also a ghost hunter, and one of the things I want to see you is to tell you this." ”

"What else do you have?" It seems that she has something else to say, otherwise I can be reminded to be careful, and Uncle Li can tell me, and there is no need for her to see me in person.

"Yes, let me ask you a question first, do you know what the essence of the Cold Night Festival is?"

I nodded.

The essence of the Cold Night Sacrifice is that the spirits of the dead have crossed the door of life and death.

The Gate of Life and Death was originally a passage between the two worlds of Life and Death, and the living soul could only enter the Gate of Death through death, while the undead could only enter the Gate of Life through reincarnation. But a small number of powerful undead sacrificed thousands of souls through rituals and forcibly opened the door of life and death, and this ritual was the Cold Night Sacrifice.

The Cold Night Festival causes a collective riot of the undead, and a large number of undead are transformed into evil spirits, and the evil spirits become more powerful and brutal. A large number of people will be killed by the rampaging spirits as a result of this ritual. And the cold night festival will eventually cause changes in the heavens and the earth, and the climate will become extremely cold.

And the evil spirits that eventually cross the door of life and death will also have the ability to possess the living at will, and can exist in this world for hundreds of years, becoming the most terrifying existence.

"There was once an evil spirit who came to this world through the Cold Night Sacrifice. He killed countless people, but finally woke up. In order to atone for his sins, he united the ghost hunters and formed the first ghost hunter sect. It was also he who carried forward the industry of ghost hunters and saved countless people from fire and water. The two or five women told the story.

I've heard about it, and it's probably a well-known legend in the ghost hunter world.

The second and fifth women continued: "That man lived three hundred years by the body of a wild beast, and he thought that his sins had been paid for before he died. But he understands one thing, the most terrible thing about the cold night sacrifice is not the cold ice and snow, nor the souls of the collective riots, but the evil spirit that has crossed the life and death. It will absorb the resentment of countless dead people and become the embodiment of all evil, and there is no way for humans in this world to compete with him.

"He didn't want that kind of disaster to befall the world again, and based on his own understanding, he finally found a way to fight the ultimate evil spirit, and passed it down secretly, and it has been passed down to this day."

A way to fight that mysterious spirit? I've never heard of this before, and it seems to be a top secret for ghost hunters.

"The ultimate evil spirit possesses a near-invincible soul and the ability to possess at will. Even if a person with an extremely strong soul can only guarantee that he will not be taken away by him, he cannot stop him from persecuting others at all. ”

I was also very curious, and asked the second or fifth girl directly: "What kind of way can you deal with such an invincible monster?" ”

"The way to deal with it is to build a cage of souls!"

Cage?

"What cage is so powerful?"

"The cage is not a cage in the true sense of the word, but a living person. Once the evil spirit is possessed by that body, it can never be freed. ”
