"Fool!"
Rhode glanced over and said softly.
This castle is now completely enveloped by the domain barrier of the evil spirit. The entire castle is a single entity, equivalent to the evil spirit's prison.
Want to escape through the window?
Unless your strength is great enough to overturn the entire castle.
Otherwise, just forget about it.
Pushing up his glasses, Rhode took off the crucifix necklace from his chest, which transformed into a golden knuckle duster.
"I don't really like bullying women, but, an evil spirit shouldn't really count as a person, right?"
Rhode slightly opened his shirt, his imposing figure slowly walking towards the evil spirit coming down the stairs.
Vivian wanted to stop him, but Vera held her back.
"Don't worry, he can definitely do it!"
Vera's tone was full of confidence, after all, she knew Rhode's strength.
Although she had only seen him take action once by chance, the fact that Rhode dared to go up meant that he must have the confidence to purify this evil spirit.
"How do you know?"
Vivian frowned, looking at her best friend Vera with a strange expression.
She didn't even know about it, so how could this girl have so much confidence?
Were these two hiding something from her?
After all, Rhode had basically been in her sight all day today.
Except for those twenty or thirty minutes when he went to the bathroom.
Even if this bastard was good at flirting with women, he wouldn't have been able to devour Vera in the time it took to go to the bathroom.
After all, Vera had her own boyfriend.
She definitely wouldn't be so easily seduced by this bastard.
Inside the room, Clyde, who had failed to escape, walked to the door in frustration, and found that the fetus evil spirit was standing still five meters away from the room.
Rhode, on the other hand, was walking towards the terrifying evil spirit on the stairs.
"This guy is dead for sure!"
Watching the man and the evil spirit approach, Clyde couldn't help but feel a bit of schadenfreude in addition to fear.
His eyes were filled with jealousy and malice.
Even if they all died here, at least this bastard would be the first to die.
However, after this bastard died, their time wouldn't be far off either.
"I can't die here, I must find a way to escape."
Looking at the fetus evil spirit covered in flames on the other side, Clyde's gaze suddenly fell on his girlfriend Amy, who was standing there blankly, supported by Vera and Vivian.
A hint of madness flashed in his eyes.
Although this fetus evil spirit was terrifying, it was obviously not as strong as the one on the stairs.
If someone could hold this guy back, he could pass through the sea of fire and escape this hellish place.
Between human nature, morality, and life, Clyde made his choice after only a moment's hesitation.
Heaven and earth will punish those who don't act for themselves. He just wanted to live, what was wrong with that?
Looking at the few women, a wicked thought suddenly arose.
At the staircase, Rhode looked at the evil spirit exuding malice, close at hand, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.
This woman, as expected, should be the mistress of this castle.
That is, the noble lady who was innocently burned to death as a witch because of the plague.
Rhode stretched out his hand with a pitying expression, and in an instant, he could clearly feel the painful soul.
Struggling, wailing, longing for liberation.
But her resentment and the child burned to death in her belly made her soul unable to be liberated, forever bound in this castle.
Day after day, feeling the pain and despair of the past.
Boom!
In the next second, scorching flames wrapped around Rhode's body.
Rhode's face didn't show any emotion while standing in the sea of fire. The power mastered by this evil spirit was not pure flame.
But the fire of the spirit!
This kind of flame cannot be resisted by physical means, because it burns a person's spirit and soul.
As long as there is a flaw in the spirit, this fire of the spirit will ignite in the human heart.
From the spirit to the body, until everything is burned to ashes.
Unless the will is strong enough to not have the slightest flaw, can one resist the burning of this fire of the spirit.
The mistress of the castle was burned to death as a witch, and after her soul turned into an evil spirit, she mastered this special ability.
The ability is very powerful, but unfortunately it is not enough.
If his spiritual power is compared to a turbulent river, then the spiritual power of this evil spirit is at most a slowly flowing stream.
Ordinary flames can ignite wood, but cannot melt steel.
Under absolute crushing strength, the flame that burns the soul, in his feeling, is just a warm flame.
Apart from making him feel a trace of warmth, it couldn't shake his will and soul in the slightest.
What's more, his Immortal Armor can absorb all attacks, naturally including this fire of the spirit.
Pfft!
With a casual punch, the knuckle duster exuding divine power directly smashed the ugly face.
"May your Lord bless you!"
Rhode raised his hand and made a sacrifice, giving the soul that had been struggling in pain for hundreds of years eternal peace.
Rather than struggling in pain in this world, it is better to turn it all into his powerful nourishment.
It can also be regarded as contributing one's own strength to the world before dying.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, a scream.
Rhode looked behind him, and just as he had purified the evil spirit, Clyde, who had secretly come behind Amy at some unknown time, suddenly reached out and pushed Amy towards the fetus evil spirit burning with flames.
At the same time, Clyde's eyes were ferocious, and his face was full of desire to survive.
At the moment when the evil spirit's attention was attracted by Amy, clinging to the edge of the corridor, enduring the pain of being burned by the flames, he suddenly broke into the flames.
He ran directly past the evil spirit.
His body crossed the sea of fire, but there was no pain as imagined. It seemed that the burning sensation just now was just an illusion.
Clyde's eyes were dazed for a moment, and he didn't dare to look back, perhaps afraid of seeing those disappointed and contemptuous eyes.
"I just want to live, I'm not wrong!"
"Everything is the Lord's arrangement!"
Comforting himself in his heart, seeing the gate of the castle close at hand, Clyde had already thought of a place to hide in his mind.
When he was searching for treasure in the castle before, he found a small abandoned house. As long as he hid there, he would definitely be able to survive until tomorrow.
By then, these things might disappear, and he would be able to escape this dangerous castle.
Thinking excitedly in his mind, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of him.
Tap tap tap!
The low hoofbeats stepped on the floor, making a chilling sound.
A huge shadow enveloped him, devouring Clyde's body.
Clyde suddenly stopped, his ecstatic expression frozen on his face, and he trembled as he slowly raised his head.
Immediately afterwards, a desperate and fearful look appeared on his face.
Creak!
The dilapidated castle gate slowly opened automatically.
In the ear-piercing sound, a low, hoarse voice sounded from Clyde's ear.
"Have you seen my head?"
"This bastard, how dare he do this!"
In the corridor, Vivian and Vera hurriedly helped Amy, who was lying on the ground, and their eyes showed angry and disgusted expressions.
This bastard actually pushed his girlfriend onto the evil spirit at such a dangerous time, taking the opportunity to escape.
They had really never seen such a shameless person.
No wonder he left Amy alone and ran away in the hall before.
"Are you okay?"
At this time, Rhode, who came over, glanced at the few people and asked casually.
"It's okay, but how did that evil spirit suddenly disappear?"
Vera looked at the disappearing fetus evil spirit and the flames covering the entire castle, with a strange expression on her face.
Just now, when Amy was pushed onto the evil spirit by that bastard Clyde, she thought Amy was dead, but the result was that she was unscathed.
"These two evil spirits are actually one."
"The one above is the main body, and the small one is just an illusion that was created."
Rhode explained lightly. This small evil spirit was actually just scary to look at and didn't have any attack power at all.
The flame temperature that these guys felt was actually just an illusion brought about by their spirit.
Now that the main body of the evil spirit is dead, the illusion that was created will naturally disappear.
So, even if Clyde hadn't pushed Amy out just now, he could have successfully broken through.
"Are we safe now?"
Seeing Rhode easily destroy this terrifying evil spirit, a group of people subconsciously regarded him as their backbone.
Looking at those pairs of expectant eyes, Rhode couldn't help but shook his head.
"The one just now was just a small character, the real master of this castle hasn't appeared yet."
The real master?
Hasn't appeared yet?
Vera and the others were stunned at the same time. The evil spirit just now was already desperate enough, but it turned out that it wasn't the real master of this castle.
Then, where is the real master of this castle now?
Just as a group of people were looking at each other, Rhode's gaze suddenly turned to the end of the dark corridor.
