Chapter 15: The Ghost Pact
In the midst of chaos, there is a special space. It's like a huge indoor town, with buildings, squares, and in fact, if any contractor is here, they will definitely recognize that this is the demonic space they are most familiar with. Because all the buildings, layouts, and environments they are familiar with here are exactly the same as the Demon Space. However, this demonic space is even more eerie, there seems to be no color at all, and everything you see is black and white. What's even more terrifying is that it's empty, and there is no one here.
After a long time, a figure in a black robe slowly emerged from the mission platform and entered this strange demon space. Like a ghost returning from hell, this man walks silently, wearing a ghost-faced fanged mask, and he can't see his face clearly.
At this time, from the return platform of the mission, several more figures appeared, and these figures were also wearing black robes, but they did not wear masks. But looking at the faces, they are all like dead people, lifeless, bloodless, and revealing a cold and ruthless color.
These people walked up to the demon space from the mission platform, but they saw the masked man standing in front of them at a glance, and hurriedly walked over one by one to salute.
"I've seen the Boss!"
"The leader is well!"
The masked man nodded, and at this time, one of the black-robed people seemed to be about to speak, and the leader snorted coldly when he saw this: "Just say something!" ”
"Yes!" The man's body was shocked, but he hurriedly said: "It's Zhao Changhai, one of his stand-ins left in Stratholme was killed." ”
"Do you know who did it? Is it a plot character or a contractor? ”
"It's not clear, but the possibility of the contractor is very high, Zhao Changhai has already gone to check!"
"I know, tell Zhao Changhai that Stratholme's move is very important to me, let him be careful and don't make any mistakes!"
The leader had an aura of not being angry, and after saying that, the man hurriedly bowed his head and retreated. In his heart, he knew that if Zhao Changhai didn't do this well, he was afraid that he would end up miserable.
At this time, a strange sound suddenly sounded in the square in the distance, and suddenly these black-robed people all looked in that direction.
"It seems. We're going to have new companions, so let's check them out! The man called the leader let out a strange sneer, and then walked over slowly, and the black-robed men glanced at each other and hurried to follow.
In the square of this strange demon space, there is a huge deep pit. It looks like it is more than ten meters in diameter, like a black hole that goes straight to hell. There was no bottom, and a terrible stench kept coming out of this deep pit.
And at this moment, the leader led the people to stand on the edge of the pit and looked down.
Inside, there were many sounds coming from extremely deep places, as if someone was wailing, someone was screaming, and there was the sound of heavy objects colliding after falling.
See this terrible pit. Almost all the black-robed people except the leader had ugly faces and expressions full of fear, as if they recalled something unbearable from the past.
"Hmph. You, including me, have all crawled out of the deepest part of this hell, and when you see this 'hell tunnel', you should feel how difficult it is to be alive again, so cherish it, if you die again as a 'ghost contract', it will really be scattered, and even reincarnation will be impossible! The leader said coldly, and the black-robed people were silent.
They are all 'ghost deeds'.
What is a ghost pact? It was them, as contractors, who had died in the mission. But with superhuman perseverance and an obsession that doesn't want to die, the contractor crawled out of this 'hell tunnel'.
They are the 'resurrected dead', but they can't return to the normal demon space, they can't become normal contractors, the demon space they are in is a place that can only be entered by ghost contracts, and they have to accept the fate of being enemies of normal contractors. …,
This is the 'ghost contract'.
But climb out of this 'tunnel of hell'. How easy is it to say? Under normal circumstances, every day, every mission, a contractor dies in the mission. When these contractors die, they will be in a state of soul, but they have a chance to wake up, and that is when they pass through this tunnel of hell.
At that time, they need to rely on terrifying perseverance, grasp the steep rock wall with their fingers, with their feet, with everything, and then crawl out of the depths of hell tens of thousands of feet. And every time I climbed, it was like cutting my whole body with a knife and being tortured, so on the way, there would be people who fell down because they couldn't support it and died completely. Of course, there are also great perseverance and a lucky few who can climb out. And those who successfully climbed out became 'ghost deeds'.
The leader is the strongest one in the ghost contract, so he became the leader.
At this moment, all kinds of screams and strange noises continued to be heard in the hell tunnel, and slowly, many black figures could be seen appearing in the ghosts above. These black figures had distorted faces, apparently in extreme pain. Their hands and feet are bloody and fleshy, but they are still crawling for a chance to be reborn.
From time to time, there are figures who fall directly because of physical exhaustion, lax willpower, or the pain experienced when climbing, and the closer they get to the hole, the more figures fall.
Above, the leader and the black-robed people just looked at it, without any expression, they were just waiting quietly.
As time passed, several figures had climbed close to the entrance of the cave, but in this distance, it was also the most dangerous.
A figure like an ox was less than twenty meters away from the entrance of the cave, but because of physical exhaustion, one of them missed, and then fell. Its figure vanished rapidly, accompanied by a scream that tore and cracked its lungs.
A sturdy figure was less than ten meters away from the entrance of the cave, because it couldn't bear the sharp pain in its hands and feet, and it also fell, falling short.
With the continuous failures, there were fewer and fewer figures who had worked hard to climb up all the way, and in the end, there was only one left.
The figure was not tall and had slender limbs, and although it trembled with pain every time it crawled, it still did not give up.
The figure crawled slowly, and it took a few minutes or even ten minutes for each movement.
By the end, it was even in shock and confused, but it still didn't give up.
After an hour, it finally crawled out of the hole and lay motionless on the ground. And during the whole process, none of the leaders and ghost deeds stepped forward to help.
Knowing that the other party had climbed up, the leader let out a rude laugh.
"Yes, yes, with your perseverance, you have a chance to be reborn!" After speaking, the leader looked back at the ghost deeds behind him, but said, "See? You all crawled out like this, you suffered a lot, you were tortured, there was no one to help you, you had to rely on yourself, but in the end, you succeeded. Every ghost contract is a real strong man, and we are bound to create our own heaven and earth, and as for those normal contractors, they are too far behind us, as long as you remember the pain you went through when you crawled out of the hell tunnel, you will be invincible! ”
"Yes!" Several black-robed ghosts roared loudly.
The leader nodded in satisfaction, then walked over, reached out and grabbed the figure that had just climbed up, and slowly walked towards a building.
An hour later, when the leader reappeared, he was followed by a petite woman in a black robe. This woman's face was as pale as snow, cold and abnormal, but the chill in her eyes was penetrating through the air.
Obviously, this woman is the ghost deed who has just crawled out of the tunnel of hell. …,
"By the way, let him come to see me after Zhao Changhai comes back, the line of the Lich King should be about to close the net!" After the leader finished speaking, he directly turned into a black light and disappeared without a trace, leaving only those ghosts standing in place.
……
Inside the black stone tower, Lin Fei opened his eyes fiercely.
He could feel the 'big fish' he was waiting for taking the bait.
Taking out the combat power detector, Lin Fei looked at the surrounding targets, but saw that a guy with a standing strength of 3500 instantly killed the stitch guards he had arranged in the square and rushed into the black stone tower.
"It's so strong, is it 3500 combat power? Some trouble, but not invincible! Lin Fei's expression was serious, but he flipped his hand and took out the Thunder Sword and Sun God Glasses. Now Lin Fei has to wait, wait for the other party to fall into the trap, and then give the other party a killer blow. After all, if you can kill those 1500 combat power stitch guards in an instant, the strength of the other party should definitely not be underestimated, and a little negligence may cause a big disaster.
As for whether the other party will step on the trap he set, Lin Fei has his own method, even if the other party doesn't pay attention, he will think of ways to let the other party step on it.
Thinking of this, Lin Fei got up, and his figure flashed and entered a sneaking state, disappearing without a trace.
At the entrance, Zhao Changhai did not move.
His face was hideous, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Ridiculous, ridiculous, just to set a couple of cheap traps here just to deal with me? It's the funniest joke I've ever seen! When he finished speaking, he looked around, and then took a step forward.
Just one meter in front of him was a 'knife array trap' set up by Lin Fei.
As soon as someone enters the range of this trap, it will trigger immediately. In an instant, Zhao Changhai stepped in, and more than a dozen flipped and chopping blades suddenly appeared around him, and these blades appeared out of thin air, like substance, one by one, cold and sharp, and the cold light flashed.
Boom, boom, the knife array instantly attacked Zhao Changhai's body.
It's just that Zhao Changhai sneered, didn't dodge or dodge, and let the knife slash over. I heard the sound of gold and stone colliding, and those sword arrays shattered together, and then turned invisible.
As for Zhao Changhai, the clothes on his body were a little damaged, but he did not receive any damage.
This scene was seen by Lin Fei, who was hiding dozens of meters away.
"Damn, what kind of defensive props is this guy wearing, how can he be so strong?" Lin Fei was secretly speechless, although he knew that these low-price traps were useless, he didn't expect them to be so unbearable. (To be continued.)
