Chapter 36: The Haunted House
As soon as Berlet and Zero Ki entered the house, the door slammed shut. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info looked at the pitch-black environment in the house, and the pale shadows drifted by from time to time. Ling Qi looked at Bellet beside him, and resisted the urge to immediately activate the ability to become invisible.
"I know martial arts! I know martial arts! I have to protect Brother Belette!" Ling Qi muttered silently in his heart.
While Ling Qi was on guard, there was a muffled sound outside the door. Ling Qi screamed in fright, and a trace of sweat oozed from his forehead.
"Zero-Qi, Zero-Qi, do you hear me!"
Hearing the sound outside the door, Ling Qi suddenly threw himself down to the door, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of relief in his heart.
"Master, I'm here, come in!" Ling Qi said with a crying voice.
Hearing Ling Qi's words inside the door, Tatsuno Makoto hurriedly instructed: "You and Bellet stay well, don't wander around! We will go in and meet you immediately! Before we go in, protect yourself!"
"Come in quickly, we won't walk around!" said Ling Qi, holding back tears.
Tatsuno Makoto didn't speak again, and turned around and rushed towards the Corpse Demon with an angry face, his fists making a muffled sound on the Corpse Demon.
"Phantasmagono, what did you do!What did you let them in!" Tatsuno Makoto shouted angrily at the phantom master, seeing that his attack was still ineffective.
"Don't worry! I'll take a look! You guys are dragging down the corpse demon!" Owl had already seen the green light that flashed on the door when Makoto Tatsuno attacked the door.
It was supposed to be a physical defense spell, and the one who had the most research on this thing among the three was definitely the owl.
As if sensing the arrival of the owl, the frequency of the green light flashing on the door became more frequent.
"What a hassle!"
The owl sensed the magic fluctuations on the door and found that the source of the magic was inside the house. After a tentative attack, he found that the mana fluctuations on the door were slightly weakened, and the mana would be teleported from the source, replenishing the mana consumed by the defensive spell on the door.
The Owl tried again to attack from the rest of the house a few times, and the effect was still the same. In this way, it seems that the whole house must have been wrapped in a defensive spell.
The easiest way to deal with such a spell is to hit the person who controls it. But now it would be good for Ling Qi and Belette in the room to protect themselves, in case there were undead creatures like the Corpse Demon inside, the two of them would definitely have to explain inside.
It looked like it could only be destroyed from the outside, and Xiao suddenly felt a little deflated when he thought of this. After thinking about it, I only think of such a crude method, such a method does not need to be thought of by myself, and anyone can think of it.
Makoto Tatsuno and the illusionist continued to contain the corpse demon, and in the face of the attack of the two, the corpse demon completely gave up his defense and tried to fight back. However, the slow and clumsy movements made it impossible for the Grave Demon to hit the two of them.
Just as Tatsuno Makoto attacked frantically, the Corpse Grave Demon suddenly let out a loud roar, and a pale green light emanated from its body, mixed with the pus from the corpse on its body and wanted to splash around.
Makoto Tatsuno and the illusionist hurriedly retreated, and the wild grass on the ground withered rapidly the moment they came into contact with the green light. Taking advantage of this gap, the corpse demon walked slowly to the door of the house again.
Looks like this guy who manipulates the corpse demon doesn't want us in. Seeing the corpse demon's reaction, the owl suddenly shouted loudly: "Sincerely, illusionist, take me as the center, attack this house at three points!"
Hearing Xiao's words, Makoto Tatsuno and the illusionist left the corpse grave demon and rushed directly to the front of the room. The three of them attacked with all their might, causing the green light that covered the entire house to flicker at great speed. Seeing this situation, the three of Tatsuno Makoto suddenly attacked again.
The green light that covered the entire house made a cracking sound, and then the green light disappeared. Xiao hurriedly pushed the door open, and was greeted by Ling Qi's tear-stained face.
"Why did you just come in! Brother Belette has been captured!"
Zero Qi said with a sob.
"What's going on?" asked the owl.
It's only been a few minutes since the door was closed, and how did he get arrested?
"As soon as the master left, a white ghost appeared. Brother Belette didn't know what was going on and followed the ghost. Ling Qi stopped her tears and said anxiously.
"How do you know it's a ghost?"
The owl saw that the corpse demon was still moving slowly towards the house, but his movements were obviously much more agile.
"Phantomist, you and the guy who is going to manipulate the corpse demon. You take Zero Qi to find Belette. Don't waste your time with this thing!"
After speaking, Xiao took a look at the empty room, and rushed over with the illusionist in the direction where the magic fluctuation had just come from.
"Which direction did Bellet go?" asked Makoto Tatsuno.
"Over there!" Ling Qi said, pointing to the second floor.
And the corpse demon stopped after Makoto Tatsuno and the others entered the house. It stands like a sculpture in front of the house.
Walking into the house, Makoto Tatsuno took a closer look at the hall he was in. A large hall, with tattered furniture, and a staircase spiraling upwards against the door, connecting the second and third floors. The owl and the illusionist had already rushed to the third floor at this time, and their figures gradually disappeared.
Makoto Tatsuno reached out and pulled up Ling Qi and ascended the stairs. On the jogging platform between the first and second floors, a portrait hangs on the central wall.
The portrait depicts two people, with a middle-aged man in the center, wearing a wide magician robe with a serious expression. Behind her stood a young girl, whose white dress set off the girl's pale skin, giving it a morbid beauty.
"That's her! She's the one who took Brother Belette!" said Zero Qi, pointing to the girl in the painting.
When Makoto Tatsuno heard Ling Qi's words, he glanced at the portrait, nodded and pulled Ling Qi to the second floor.
"Bellet must be very satisfied with this adventure, the scene of the girl ghost and the handsome adventurer is a plot that must appear in any adventure novel!"
Just as Tatsuno was summing up the satisfaction that this adventure had brought to Belette, Bellet was in a room on the second floor, flipping through a diary. A transparent figure floated silently beside him.
"So, do you want me to stop him from continuing his research?" asked Bellet, looking at the floating figure around him.
"That's right. I hope that this evil research will not continue any longer. The transparent figure said softly.
"Why don't you look for them! Even my sister is much stronger than me, I'm a third person. I can't help you for help!" Bellet said with a lonely look in her eyes.
"If it were them, I wouldn't have had a chance to speak at all. I've tried it many times, and every time I show up, I'm inexplicably attacked by the person I turn to for help. Then he's going to kill everyone who attacks me, and I don't want to go on like this anymore. The transparent figure said helplessly.
"Understood. I'm the middleman, right?"
Seeing the transparent figure and nodded, Bellet bowed lightly and said, "For the request of the beautiful lady, no gentleman will refuse." ”
"Brother Belette, where are you?" Ling Qi's voice kept echoing in the hallway.
"Beautiful lady, my buddies should come in, I'll go find them to help you!"
After saying that, Berlet opened the door and shouted, "I'm here." ”
The secrets of the haunted house are about to be revealed.
