Chapter 65: The Ghost Strikes the Wall

Fan Wu followed the last corpse ship far away, in order to avoid the possibility of being discovered, so he flew close to the ground the whole time, but he was only seeking comfort in his heart, if someone on the spaceship looked at the ground, he would definitely be able to find him.

Because except for the four locust forests and the yellow mud pool, the sky here is gray and barren, all black soil, there is not a single grass, and the ground is completely uncovered, Fan Wu observed the distant landform while following the spaceship.

Although it is not a plain, there are also mountains, but as far as the eye can see, there are some hills and hills, and there are basically no visual heights of more than 100 meters, so Fan Wu no longer dodges and detours forward, and follows in a straight line while maintaining the distance between him and the spaceship.

After about a dozen hills, I finally saw a different color, and in the distance I saw a line of gray appearing, slowly turning into a piece of gray, and when I got closer, I found that it seemed to be a neatly arranged pile of stones.

After flying closer, I saw that it was not a stone, but a gray tombstone erected on top of the cemetery, which was a vast cemetery, occupying the graves of Fan Wu's entire line of sight, with no end in sight to the left and right and in front of him.

'How can there be a graveyard in the underworld?' and erect tombs on such a scale. Fan Wu's heart was full of doubts, but what he was most curious about now was the source of the corpse, so he didn't stop to take a closer look, and hurriedly flew by.

Following the corpse ship to continue to fly forward, it took half a day to cross the scope of the cemetery, and then returned to the world full of black soil, and half a day later saw a dilapidated building complex larger than the cemetery, like an abandoned city after the Great War, decaying and ruined, and the original architectural structure and urban style could not be seen at all.

Fan Wu still didn't stop, and continued to fly over the spaceship, so he flew all the way, passing through a cemetery, a ruined city, a large desertified lake, and a long-dead forest, a total of four strange places.

One was larger than the other, and it had taken five or six days to fly over these places, and finally came to the outskirts of an entire city, and saw from afar that the corpse carrier had landed in the middle of the city.

To say that it is a complete city is just to say that its buildings are complete, but the whole city is not a trace of life, Fan Wu squatted on a small hill on the periphery and observed for a long time, except for the landing of the corpse ship, there was no movement at all, and there was no trace of ghost activity.

The last time I was at home, I heard that fake Liu Xing say that the architectural style of the underworld is similar to the style of the ancient Tang and Song dynasties, but the city in front of me is a bit like a European town, but the scale is dozens of times larger.

Most of them are three-storey villa small building structure, occasionally one or two high-rise buildings are not more than five floors highest, the street is not wide, but the planning is reasonable, criss-crossed, from the perspective of Fan Wu, there is no dead end road to see the existence.

In the middle of a few blocks, there is still a church, only two floors but a residential building, four or five stories high, with a huge cross erected on the top of the exposed spire, but from a distance it does not look like a regular cross, as if something is tied to it.

After getting out of the hill and following a path into the city, I found that the ground here was the same black soil as the outside of the city, and every house was closed and silent, and the atmosphere was very depressing.

Fan Wu walked along the street, eager to go into the house on the side of the road to have a look, but in the end he resisted this curiosity and ran all the way to the center of the city where the corpse ship had just landed.

Looking at the straight line on the outer hills, Fan Wu remembered that the place where the spaceship landed was an open space, and it was estimated that it was either a square or a park, but after coming in, he turned around the street for a long time and did not find it.

Thinking that Fan Wu wanted to fly straight in a straight line, he found that he couldn't fly here, no matter how he tried, he couldn't fly, but fortunately, he didn't go far into the city, and Fan Wu immediately withdrew from the city.

You can fly outside, but as long as you enter the city street, you will land on your own, not because there is something to suppress, but as if you don't have the ability to fly when you go in, Fan Wu is a little hesitant when she encounters such an abnormal situation.

This is the underworld, not an immortal dojo, how can ghosts not fly, and there was a spaceship in just now, why can't they fly themselves, what kind of rule is this.

After thinking about it again, he still decided to go to the city, no matter what the rules here were, Fan Wu was still confident in his current ability, even if he couldn't fly, there was nothing to be afraid of.

Before re-entering the city, he flew to the air again to confirm the direction and approximate route of the city center, and after landing in the city, he strode along the established route in his heart, and after turning a few corners, the church appeared in front of him.

No, the route just planned doesn't need to pass through this church, it's a mistake? Fan Wu re-identified the direction and continued to run forward, and after going around for a few minutes, he looked up and saw that it was still the same church.

Looking at the door of the church, Fan Wu was a little excited, could it be that there was something waiting for him inside? Otherwise, even if he couldn't find his way to the city center for a while, it was unlikely that he would come back here again.

Now he couldn't see the condition of the cross from this angle, but he really wanted to go in and see it, because the cross he saw from a distance twice was not normal.

When I looked at it from the top of the hill, it seemed that something was hanging on it, but the cross I saw when I looked at the route from the air for the second time was crooked, as if it had been carried diagonally on the shoulders of someone.

It is equivalent to saying that up to now, almost all the things that the entire city has seen in the line of sight are static things, the only thing that has changed is that the spaceship has landed is this cross, plus it has been so coincidental to come back here twice, Fan Wu feels that there must be something wrong with this, and it is worth exploring.

He didn't hesitate for long, it was clear whether it was worth coming again, he went back the same way again, quickly withdrew from the city, flew high into the air and confirmed the route again, this time seeing that the cross on the roof of the church was actually missing.

The third time I walked into the street, this time I didn't want to go fast, I walked cautiously, and every time I came to an intersection, I found a prominent place on the side of the road to leave a mark.

Fan Wu, who carefully confirmed that he was not going in the wrong direction, and did not repeat the walk, spent half an hour, as always, came to the door of the church, he did not stop, did not look at the church, and continued to walk.

After walking a few more streets that are definitely not repeated, I really came back again, and the maze should not be a maze, because the road of the maze will be repeated, and only when I encounter a ghost hitting the wall will I think that I am walking all the time, but in fact I am only spinning in place.

Fan Wu knew that ghosts would also encounter ghosts hitting the wall in the half a year when he traveled alone, and his strength was still low at that time, so he didn't know how to crack it, and finally spent a lot of soul power and relied on the powerful firepower of the Vulcan Spear.

But now that I've become a ghost, I can also be trapped by a ghost hitting a wall? So how powerful is this ghost, but this time it's not necessarily a ghost hitting a wall, I've never heard of a ghost hitting a wall and there is a way out.

Regardless of whether it is or not, Fan Wu is quite confident in his current strength, since he will eventually come here no matter how he goes, then go in and take a look, and by the way, go and see what is going on with the cross on the top.

Fan Wu walked up the stairs to the front of the door, and saw that the two door panels were inlaid with a wooden cross, but the style was different, the one on the left was a pure cross, and the one on the right was the style of the crucifixion.

Of course, Fan Wu, who had no religious beliefs, didn't know what the two crosses had different meanings, and he didn't know how unusual it was for two crosses to appear at the same gate at the same time, so he raised his hand and gently pushed the door open.

It is like an automatic door, and when you stand at the door, you can directly see the crucifix at the bottom of the church, a huge cross, on which Jesus' hands and feet are nailed, carved so vividly that even his old man's painful expression can be clearly seen.

It's just that the statue of the god that is supposed to be carved from wood can carve the blood so realistically, standing at the door from a distance as if it is still flowing, this carver is definitely a master.

While admiring the master's craftsmanship in his heart, Fan Wu walked into the church, and after entering, there were rows of seats where the believers sat during worship, and at the front was the priest's podium, and there were two doors on the right side of the pulpit against the wall, which should be the confession room.

There is a staircase leading to the second floor on each side of the giant cross against the wall, Fan Wu really didn't have much interest in Comrade Jesus, and he didn't have any interest in stepping forward to say hello, and after seeing the pattern clearly, he chose the left staircase and went straight to the second floor.

When I went up the stairs, I saw the blood on the wound of the statue of Jesus and had to sigh again at the meticulousness of the carving, so close up it is still very realistic, but the blood is a little black at night, probably because of the age of the wood discoloration.

Going up to the second floor is a U-shaped space, except that the front front is empty, there are spacious corridors on both sides, and the rear gate is topped by a large attic, with several rows of chairs and a railing at the front, which is probably a special place for important people or church insiders to worship.

There is also a small ladder on the side of the attic, which should be the place where the bell tower and the cross can lead to the top, and Fan Wu goes up the ladder to the bell tower.

When I arrived at the bell tower, I found that there was no way to go to the roof where the cross was, and I couldn't see it at all here, the bell tower was empty on all sides, and I couldn't fly here, so Fan Wu had to try to lean out and see, and I tried on all sides, but I always saw only the upper half of the cross because of the eaves obstruction, but the angle was different.

Although I only saw the upper half, I didn't see anything wrong with the cross from here, I didn't see anything hanging on it, it didn't fall off, and it didn't fall down.

Everything was normal with the cross, Fan Wu had to give up for the time being, distinguish between the front and back, the left and right, and retract his body to stand on the bell tower and look in the direction of the city center, wanting to redraw the route.

Leaving aside the episode here in the church, Fan Wu's eyes were still the same as the place he had seen on the hill before, a silent, lifeless city, without any movement.

Fan Wu, who had re-routed, left the church and went out into the street, and twenty minutes later went up to the bell tower again, but it still didn't work, and he would walk around and go back to the front of the church.

Since he knew that he could use the Vulcan Gun to smash the ghost hitting the wall, and when he encountered the same situation twice later, Fan Wu could remain patient and not move the gun, and calmly observed and analyzed the law of the ghost hitting the wall, and finally found that it was actually similar to the so-called formation that he had seen in the book before.

Each ghost hitting the wall will have a core location or key condition, as long as it is triggered, the formation can be broken, and the key location here should be this church.

Fan Wu intuitively thought that it should be the cross on the top, so he went up to the bell tower again, thinking about using his strength on the bell to see if he could climb up to the roof, climbing the eaves with both hands and kicking the bell hard with both feet.

"Bell!"

A melodious bell rang throughout the city.

Although he borrowed strength, Fan Wu still couldn't climb onto the roof, so he had to let go, and after standing still, he was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a mistake, it turned out that the bell was the condition for breaking the formation here.

Because after the bell sounds, the world in front of me seems to have been lifted, and although there is no change in the city's hardware, it feels like the whole city is alive.

Of course, this is just a feeling, the city has not suddenly become a bustling scene, and the buildings are still the same buildings, but there is movement, and there are faint signs of biological activity in the streets and alleys.

Although Fan Wu's senses are much sharper now, he still can't see clearly from too far away, so he took out Ba Reiter to observe with the help of a scope, and sure enough, there were creatures.

I don't know if I should call them creatures or not, for example, two blocks to the right, I saw a few clouds of white light, like children flying in the air with a sheet, maybe it would be more appropriate to call them ghosts.

Three blocks in front of you, a few staggering, blood-red eyes might be more accurate to call them zombies.

There were several other strange creatures moving around the other blocks, making Fan Wu feel as if he was back to the feeling he had when he was a otaku and played games.

Full of anticipation!
