Hold.
Xia Fan's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
At first glance, it looks like a half-crouching kangaroo, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, with a huge bag on its abdomen. But when you look at the head, you know that this thing is definitely not a benevolent creature - it has several faces, as if someone deliberately stitched together multiple bloody faces, and the faces have different expressions, ranging from screaming in pain to ferocious. Angry eyes. And from the vaguely visible eyebrows, eyes, lips and nose, we can tell that these faces are all from women.
A hooded rag robe hid the rest of the uninvited guest's details. It wasn't until it stretched out its arm that Xia Fan noticed that there were no five fingers on it, but instead formed a sharp bone sickle.
It simply raised its arm and waved it down.
Standing in the front row, Zhang Shenping’s head flew up silently.
The pumped blood formed a thin fountain, and the familiar smell of rust also poured into Xia Fan's nose.
It was only then that the leader's body slowly went limp.
He just... died
Huge danger signals were screaming crazily in his mind, but no matter how hard Xia Fan struggled, his body remained motionless.
The monster slowly took two steps forward and raised his hand towards Yue Feng.
At this moment, a crisp sound of "clang" came from behind the sentient beings, and a bronze candlestick suddenly fell to the ground. The two candles on it were thrown out and rolled towards the door.
The change in firelight caused the shadows to spread.
Almost at the same moment, Xia Fan felt that he had regained control of his body!
He almost fell backwards because of the excessive force.
Others also started to move, and the hall was filled with chaotic shouts.
"There's another ghost!"
"To the firelight!"
"Don't step on the shadows under your feet!"
In just a short moment, everyone realized - this thing can imprison the movement of living creatures through darkness!
The fallen candle was extinguished.
The monster did not pursue the people who dispersed in a hurry, but moved straight towards the center of the hall. When it leaned down, picked up the remains of the Abyss Ghost, and slowly placed it into the skin bag on its abdomen, Xia Fan felt an extremely ominous premonition in his heart.
Then it raised its head and roared, it was an extremely sharp female voice, the pitch was so high that it seemed to pierce the eardrum!
And others did not sit still.
Yue Feng was the first to launch a counterattack - he was seen holding several talismans in each hand, throwing them at the female ghost in turn. Those talismans flew halfway and turned into rapid air currents, shooting straight at the target like arrows from the string.
Shangguan Cai followed closely behind, but she used gold and iron weapons instead of alchemy. For the first time, Xia Fan saw her pull out the two short sticks from her waist, twist them together to form a long spear, and fly towards the monster. Her moves were also extremely hard and fierce, and her attack was as airtight as a storm.
The female ghost used her two long scythe-like arms to block the attack while quickly retreating.
The two men's attempts were by no means ineffective. Yue Feng's long-range shots opened several gaps in its body, and Shangguan Cai's spear shattered the corners of the bone sickle.
Just when the two were about to succeed, the female ghost stepped into the darkness, and her huge figure suddenly disappeared in front of everyone, as if it was just an illusion.
"It ran away?"
"No, look behind you!" Xia Fan reminded sharply.
Due to the angle of view, he happened to notice that the shadow behind Luo Youer had changed. The originally empty darkness was like a bulge of tulle—that was the monster's unbuttoned robe!
It suddenly rushed out of the darkness and slashed at Luo Youer. The latter could only barely avoid the fatal blow, but could not avoid the subsequent sweep.
The monster waved his hand and knocked the little girl away——
"Luo You'er!"
"Miss You'er!"
Wei Wushuang and Wang Renzhi both wanted to rush over to save people, but Yue Feng yelled at them.
"Are you going to the dark place to seek death? Come back to me!"
This roar probably attracted the female ghost's attention. It turned around and pounced on Yue Feng in the same way. Only then did Yue Feng pull out his wooden sword and block the opponent's attack on the spot.
"Hmph, it's not that easy to kill me!" Veins popped up on his forehead, and the muscles in his arms swelled into the shape of hills. In the competition of pure strength, he actually pushed back the pair of bone scythes little by little.
Xia Fan has also taken out a "copper wire pendant" and is ready to take this opportunity to give the monster a fatal blow.
However, something unexpected happened. The pocket on the female ghost's belly suddenly opened, and the Abyss ghost that should have been eliminated poked its head out again.
Everyone who witnessed this scene suddenly felt cold in their hearts.
Yue Feng was even more like this. He panicked and wanted to retreat, but Yuan Gui's two arms quickly sprang out and grabbed his wrists.
Without giving anyone time to react, half of his body was quickly dragged into the bag—although the bag was wide enough, it was not deep enough to accommodate an adult male. After being stuffed more than half of the way, blood burst out from the mouth of the bag and dyed the female ghost's chest red. At the same time, there was the crackling sound of broken bones and the screams of her colleagues!
Wang Renzhi was obviously frightened by this scene. He looked pale and wanted to stay away from the evil spirit, but he tripped to the ground before running a few steps and fell heavily in front of Xia Fan, even one of his shoes flew out.
Not only that, he also pulled down the candlestick next to Xia Fan.
The firelight suddenly dimmed a lot, and part of the expanded shadow happened to cover one of Wang Renzhi's hands.
He tried to get up in fear, but found that his body could not move!
And the shoe that fell in front of him had suddenly become a new container.
Wang Renzhi clearly saw a face without a nose peeking out from inside little by little.
He cast his pleading eyes on Xia Fan.
Xia Fan knew in his heart that if he did nothing at this time, no one would blame him for Wang Renzhi's death afterwards - in this case, it was difficult to even protect himself, so how could he care about other people
Besides, this guy also has a nasty mouth.
It's just that... the personality is worse than the other person, and the other party is far from being worthy of death.
Xia Fan didn't hesitate too much and put a flying kick on his waist, kicking him out of the dark area. At the same time, he rolled to the side and quickly distanced himself from the shoes.
Sure enough, the next second the female ghost appeared where they were originally, as if there was no distance at all between the two walls of the room. If he hadn't retreated quickly, Xia Fan would have inevitably followed in the footsteps of the victims.
Everyone looked extremely ugly. An unrestricted Abyss Ghost is difficult enough to deal with, let alone an unknown pocket female ghost, and the two do not seem to be mutually exclusive. This is even worse for a team that has already lost two people. .
What's even worse is that their range of activities is limited to a ten-foot-square area in the center of the hall. The swaying shadows around them are like a dangerous chasm. Once they set foot on it, they may suffer disaster. In addition, if one candlestick is turned upside down, one will be missing. Sooner or later, this temporarily safe place will be swallowed up by darkness.
They must take countermeasures as soon as possible!
