The pale, wandering spirit visibly trembled, as if fear had caused it to shake.
"Lord..." The pale ghost knelt deeply in worship toward the direction of the blue flames.
"What is it?" The pale blue fire trembled slightly.
"Humans have invaded our castle," the pale, wandering spirit hissed. (Nine)
"Then eliminate them."
The eerie blue flames died down in the room. (8)
The pale, wandering spirit rose, passed through the wall, and departed. Part Two
...four
Five people are on their way. (Part Three)
Having anticipated the unusually dark interior, we brought a number of torches for An Yi to light with her "fire sword." (Part Three)
The castle itself wasn't frightening, but each room retained some furniture and personal belongings, traces of life everywhere.
It was as if it were a constant reminder that a horrific disaster had occurred here, causing everyone to flee in terror.
Karen used a warrior-style stat allocation, with magic power remaining a basic attribute, so her field of vision remained unchanged, still only able to detect distances of a few dozen meters.
However, for indoor environments, tens of meters is already a considerable distance.
However, the most frightening thing is that despite having such a wide area of investigation, she hasn't discovered anything yet. Q
Ghosts aren't so bad, but Karen still hoped that if ghosts really existed... U
It's best if it comes into view.
...?!
"Whoa?!" Karen suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
The other three were startled.
"What's wrong?!" Lycorina asked.
"There's...there's someone!" Karen's heart pounded wildly, her panic making her seem unlike her usual dignified princess self.
"Someone? How could there be anyone in a place like this?" Layton gripped his shield warily, his other hand resting on the wall.
“I don’t know… In the third room ahead, there’s someone lying on the bed…” Karen said in a low voice, “And we can’t tell his identity, his gender, or even his internal organs…!”
"!!!"
Milu huddled behind An Yi, clutching his hand, her eyes brimming with tears, on the verge of sobbing.
I...I want to go home!!
“No matter who he is, if he’s an enemy, just cut him down with one sword,” An Yi said calmly.
As they spoke, the group continued forward, but at a much slower pace.
We soon arrived at the room I had mentioned earlier, but the door was closed.
Can……
“I remember the door was open just now…when did it close?” Karen said, her shoulders hunched and her voice heavy.
After hearing her words, the other three people's fear deepened even further.
Even Lycorina was beginning to feel something was off.
An Yi sighed helplessly, walked to the door, and knocked symbolically.
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
Just then, a knocking sound suddenly came from the inside of the door!
"Eaaah!!"
Miluco and Karen rushed over and hugged Lycorina at the same time, and the three girls huddled together against the wall on the other side.
Layton was so startled that he fell to the ground with a thud, then leaned against the wall to stand up: "W-what happened?!"
“It sounds like someone is knocking on the door from inside,” Annie explained calmly.
"No...!" Karen shook her head violently, panicking. "Nobody's here! There's nobody behind the door! Huh?"
The person is still lying in bed! (Six)
“His arms are really long,” Annie remarked casually, then knocked on the door again. Nine
"Knock knock knock." Ling
"Knock, knock, knock." Another knock came from inside!
"Knock knock knock."
"Dong dong dong." Neighbor
"Dong dong..."
"Ann, Annie! Stop knocking! Let's go quickly!" Lycorina urged, somewhat frightened.
“A brave man cannot desert his post,” An Yi said seriously.
"Boom boom boom!"
He pounded even harder!
"Boom boom boom!"
The other party responded strongly and forcefully!
"Boom boom boom!"
"Dong dong dong dong!"
As the knocking grew louder, the unease in the four people intensified.
The door was being knocked on so hard it started to shake, as if ghosts or monsters were about to burst out at any moment!
Meanwhile, the ghost inside the door was also puzzled.
Why are these people outside knocking on the door more and more enthusiastically?
Isn't he afraid of me?!
This human is really getting into it! Well then, I won't hold back either!
"Boom boom boom!"
“Dong dong dong dong!!”
“Dong dong dong dong dong!!”
At first, they were just tapping each other more and more, but then An Yi started tapping faster and faster.
Later, An Yi's extremely fast hand speed even left afterimages in front of the door as she banged on it repeatedly.
Conversely, the other side of the door was lagging behind.
"What's wrong with this human?! Is this a speed achievable by a human?!"
The ghosts behind the door were dumbfounded.
Not only was the ghost dumbfounded, but the four people behind it were dumbfounded too.
What on earth is he doing?
Is this a case of going against ghosts?
the most important is……
It's so noisy!!
Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.
Gradually, the knocking behind the door weakened.
It was as if knowing An Yi was a monster made the Er side much weaker in both momentum and speed. ∪lin＠★.
"Thump th ...!!!!"
After An Yi finished typing for the last time, the other party remained silent.
Ghost: "I'm tired. Destroy it. I'm not hitting it anymore."
"boom!"
Suddenly, An Yi kicked the door open.
The white ghost inside was startled and instantly disappeared from the room.
An Yi just happened to see it disappear, while the others were too far away to see it clearly.
“It’s over,” Annie said to the others, then pointed to the “person” on the bed and said, “I knocked him to death.”
The four of them, somewhat confused, huddled together and looked at the bed.
By the firelight, everyone could see clearly...
There was a wooden mannequin lying on the bed!
Lycorina breathed a sigh of relief, then grinned: "Karen, so this is what you meant by... there's a person in the room without internal organs?"
"what?"
Karen reached out and touched it, feeling the texture of wood.
"But...it looks just like it! It really does!"
In her field of vision, everything was black with white lines, and she couldn't see anything too detailed.
However, given the level of detail in this mannequin, it is indeed difficult to distinguish it from a real one at first glance.
Then the problem comes...
"Why is there a mannequin here, and why is something strange knocking on the door?" Lycorina wondered.
Karen frowned slightly: "I'm afraid... the demons who occupied this castle have already noticed us."
