The dimly lit alley was filled with a gloomy atmosphere. Most of the place was shrouded in darkness, with only sporadic light coming from the dilapidated street lamps. Occasionally, a rat would run past the corner, making a rustling sound that was creepy. The ground was damp and exuded a disgusting musty smell. It seemed that no one had been here for a long time.
A sound similar to that of a burst water pipe dripping water was heard in a very regular pattern, making the place eerily quiet and chilling.
Gwen Stacy sat on the ground and hugged her body.
She stared at the shadow at the corner with wide eyes, and her breathing couldn't help but tremble.
The shadow of an indescribable horrible monster appeared at the corner. It had waving tentacles and a huge body. Its outline in the dark was enough to make people shudder.
Just now, when she was passing through this alley, she unexpectedly saw this shadow. Driven by some curiosity, she stepped deeper into the alley.
However, just as she saw the thing clearly, a huge feeling of fear suddenly came over her, making her panic.
The shadow was like a ball of mist filled with a strange atmosphere, projected onto the wall, becoming larger and clearer.
It seemed as if, on the other side of the corner, a horrible monster was approaching, and would soon turn around and lock its eyes on her.
Gwen Stacy tried to stand up and run out of the alley, but she felt she had no strength.
The fear this thing brought her was so deep that she couldn't control her trembling.
As the daughter of the police chief, she shouldn't be like this.
However, no matter how she mentally prepared herself, it still didn't work.
She looked at the shadow in front of her dejectedly, realizing that she had fallen into a desperate situation from which she could not escape. Fear and helplessness intertwined in her heart, and she felt that her body was no longer able to support itself, and she could not even sit still.
Seeing that the tentacles of the shadow were about to spread through the wall to the alley and seemed about to touch her, she closed her eyes in horror, as if she was facing endless darkness.
“Snap!”
A noise was heard.
Gwen Stacy regretted her choice very much. She didn't expect that the so-called party ghost was actually real.
However, regret seems to be of no use.
Gwen Stacy pressed her eyes.
But at this moment, a bright light shone from the distant corner, illuminating the entire alley.
"Miss Stacy, is that you?"
A familiar voice came, which surprised and stunned Gwen Stark.
"Lynn?!"
She immediately remembered that this was the boy she met today.
“Why are you here!?”
She immediately raised her voice so that Lynn could find her.
"That guy Hughes saw that I went back by myself, so he pushed me out again." Lin En had already prepared a plan in mind.
"Oh, be careful, there really is that ghost here!"
"ghost?"
Lynn quickened her pace, walked around a pile of debris, and came out of the shadows. She saw Gwen Stacy sitting on the ground in front of her and the shadow on the wall at the opposite corner.
That shadow was truly terrifying, with countless tentacles waving around, and it also had a weird-looking body that made people feel a strong sense of physical discomfort.
What could this be
Could it be that on the other side of the corner is Cthulhu
Lin En frowned and looked at it, feeling confused and uncertain.
While staring at the shadow that seemed to be getting closer, he walked towards Gwen Stacy, reached out his hand, and pulled her up.
"Thank you! Should we get out of here right away?"
Gwen Stacy was shocked. She found that the ghost did not disappear because of Lynn's appearance, but was still approaching.
This made her feel the same fear as before.
Before she knew it, she had grabbed Lynn's sleeve.
"good-"
Lynn agreed to Gwen Stacy, but soon made her faint when she wasn't paying attention.
Next, he has to let go and deal with this so-called ghost.
"Let me see what you are..."
Lynn subconsciously drew out his wand, which gave him a sense of safety in battle.
He approached the corner and the shadow step by step, thinking about what spell to use.
Perhaps, the Patronus Charm is the most suitable spell, which can resist all evil things and even break them.
But this spell requires a long time of practice and has nothing to do with the level of magic power, but with the wizard's emotions.
In this world, Lin En rarely encounters such so-called ghost threats, so he did not try this spell excessively.
"Expect God to Guard!"
He thought about the happiest things in his mind, including those from a long time ago and those after he came to New York, and shook his wand.
Then, a nimble silver-white cat flew out from the tip of his staff and rushed towards the shadow.
In a flash, the silver cat crashed into the wall, causing mist to rise.
And at this moment, the strange tentacle shadow disappeared.
Could it be that this solved the problem of the ghost
Lynn chuckled softly before he could even figure out what it was.
However, just when he was relieved, something unexpected happened.
The ghostly shadow suddenly reunited again, then changed rapidly, gradually detached from the wall and condensed into a solid entity.
Soon, Lynn discovered what it was, a huge blood-red bat.
The bat looked to be more than a person's height, but in the dim light and shadow, it was impossible to tell whether it was a person or not.
Its two thin black wings were like a cloak, tightly wrapping its body. Only from the outline could one see that it had a big belly. Soon, a sinister and sneering human face gradually emerged from behind the wings, looking at Lin En with one eye.
Its rat-like head just blocked the light, casting an elongated shadow in front of Lynn's eyes.
“I’ll go!”
This gave Lynn a scare.
The image of the bat in front of him almost immediately reminded him of a horror movie he saw when he was a child. The vampire bats in the movie had once been a shadow of his childhood.
And now, this bat was exactly the same as the bat he remembered.
"The flames are blazing!"
He immediately cast a spell, trying to attack the monster with fire.
But to his surprise, it didn't work.
The bat dodged the attack easily, as if it knew Lynn's intentions and thoughts, and appeared calm and composed.
The expression on his face became more and more weird and absurd, looking extremely creepy.
"Thunder explosion!"
"God's sword has no shadow!"
"Bodyguard!"
Lin En immediately cast multiple spells in succession. He didn't want to breathe the same air with this guy anymore.
But what was incredible to him was that all these powerful attack magics were dodged by the opponent without exception.
Could it be that he ran into a tough guy
