"Sorry... thank you so much before."
After exhaling a breath in his mouth and pressing his head with his hands, Brian Silver bowed to them cautiously.
Although this kind of scene seems a bit funny, people will always grow.
After walking back and forth between life and death, his original personality has also changed slightly. From his previous experience, he clearly understands that what this mandatory task requires most is the full cooperation of the team.
The feeling of turning his whole body into a tree but still retaining clear consciousness, being able to clearly feel pain and vaguely perceive the outside world, was really terrible, and he didn't want to experience it a second time in his life.
"Um... need help?"
After staring at Brian Yin in front of him and thinking for a long time, Bai Zhi asked.
"Looking at your situation, it seems like you are having a hard time."
"Do you have any idea?"
Hearing this, Brian Silver's eyes suddenly lit up.
To be honest, his current condition is not that good, especially the head area, which is quite inconvenient. If he is not careful, his head will roll to the ground. The headless horseman is not that easy.
"You're welcome."
He took something out of his backpack and put it in the opponent's hand. After saying these words in a graceful manner, Bai Zhi turned around and started discussing with the others, leaving Brian Yin standing alone. He stared blankly at the thing in his hand.
-That's a tube of superglue.
Volume 2 The Miracle of Improbable Probability: Chapter 1358 Chapter 440 It’s like the devil in the final devil’s city came to the novice village (4k)
Brian Yin's experience can be regarded as validating a certain conjecture in Bai Zhi's mind.
—The reason why those patients attack them is because they want to get the symptoms they have.
It's just that because their symptoms are too useless and can drag down the body, those patients simply look down on them...
—Some of his previous speculations were indeed correct. This was indeed a place for cultivating poisonous insects.
While Brian Yin put a grimace on his neck and applied strong glue to his neck, Bai Zhi went on to briefly explain his previous speculation about the patient's attack.
"...Is it really because you are too useless?"
Glancing at Brian Yin who was glueing his head to the side, Mu Yu Xingzhou crossed his hands with a thoughtful look on his face.
Muyu Xingzhou: "..."
"Be careful in the future. The reason why you are fine is because the patients you two encountered have special symptoms. Other dangerous patients don't pay too much attention."
Bai Zhi lowered his head and looked at the hole on his finger that seemed to be slightly larger than before. Bai Zhi had a noncommittal look on his face.
"The White Night Sacrifice hasn't come down yet, we... huh?"
Suddenly, as if he sensed something, Bai Zhi turned his head and looked towards the stairs. Then because of his actions, everyone else also turned their heads and looked over there.
Then, a few seconds later, with a bang-dong-dong sound, in the darkness, a round thing like a rubber ball bounced down the stairs.
As the round thing rolled down, the light that could originally radiate there suddenly became extremely obscure.
The lighting in the hall was originally provided by the gems taken out by the White Night Sacrifice before. But now, not only the light radiating to the entrance of the corridor is affected, but the light in the hall begins to flicker uneasily. got up.
"That thing can't be white... right?"
Subconsciously hiding behind Ling Xiaoyi, Mu Yu Xingzhou spoke carefully.
Among all the people, only Bai Yeji has not come down from upstairs. The reason why Brian Yin came down so late before was because he was attacked by a patient and almost lost half his life.
… So what about the White Night Sacrifice, which has not heard any news yet
No one answered him, everyone looked at the other side of the corridor with serious faces.
Because after the ball-like thing fell, there were footsteps in the corridor. The footsteps sounded very light, and there was even a vague atmosphere of joy in them.
… This is a rather contradictory perception.
The scene at the moment seemed quite strange, and the environment was extremely strange, but when they heard the footsteps that seemed to be trotting down, everyone felt an inexplicable feeling of joy in their hearts.
At this moment, all the pressure, worries and other negative emotions in everyone's hearts were dispelled. It was as if they were on a vast sunny grassland at this moment. They wanted to live a leisurely life with the company of the world of mortals, and ride horses galloping to share the prosperity of the world. …
Including Bai Zhi, the corners of everyone's mouths unconsciously curved up, as if they wanted to... smile
-Bai Zhi was the first to realize this.
After realizing that the expression on his face was out of his control, and the corners of his mouth began to rise unconsciously, he was suddenly frightened.
The other party hasn't shown up yet, but just the sound of footsteps going downstairs has had such a big impact on them... What if the other party really shows up
Quite decisively, Bai Zhi once again opened his ghost realm.
Wrapping everyone into the ghost realm and quickly hiding in the supermarket, they also completely isolated the strange footsteps.
At this time, others finally reacted to the strange feeling. Among them, Mu Yuxingzhou and Ling Xiaoyi breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground, with a big sweat all over their bodies. Cold sweat all over the body.
"My sanity has dropped by a fifth... What the hell is that?"
Sitting on the ground against the shelf, covering his neck with one hand, Mu Yu Xingzhou had a lingering fear on his face.
"Just now, I almost wanted to run over."
"It's the same for me, my sanity has dropped so much... That's definitely not an ordinary patient."
Nodding, Ling Xiaoyi's face looked a little pale.
"Of course it's not an ordinary patient...be careful, the big one is coming."
After patting his cheeks to restore the expression on his face to normal, Bai Zhi, who was glowing with a faint white light, also sat down in the ghost realm.
"How is it, how is your sanity drained?"
He turned to look at Brian Yin and Muyu Xingzhou.
Because he himself has no data that can be used as a reference, he can only rely on others to draw conclusions.
"About that, more than one-fifth of it has been lost."
Muyu Xingzhou showed a wry smile on his face.
"If you hadn't reacted quickly just now, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to wake up until our sanity dropped to half. The current situation is already very good."
"Two out of seven."
Covering his head with one hand, Brian answered in a muffled voice.
In the team he is in, he still respects Baiye Sacrifice very much, but judging from the current situation, the other party is in danger.
"What kind of patient is that?"
After pressing his aching head hard with his hand, Mu Yuxingzhou asked.
"Anyway, this hasn't even passed the first day, and we have come up with such a... such a..."
For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
"Do you think this is some kind of game about killing monsters and upgrading?"
Turning his head sideways, Bai Zhi glanced at the other person.
"This is not a game, nor is it a royal plot between a brave man and a demon king. Only the mentally retarded demon king will let the brave man fight monsters and upgrades all the way from Novice Village, and at the same time allow his subordinates to continuously send experience items to the brave man. The smart demon kings always crouch directly outside the Novice Village to ambush the brave men."
Mu Yu Xingzhou: "..."
"you mean… "
Others didn't understand for a while, but Muyu Xingzhou quickly understood the meaning of Bai Zhi's words, and his expression suddenly changed.
"Yes, those footsteps alone can reduce your sanity to that level, and the identity of the other party is obvious."
Bai Zhi's face was expressionless.
"The other party is the strongest patient in the world, and will soon become the master of ghost stories."
… … … … … … … … … …
Just like the demon king in the Demon King's Castle finally came to the starting novice village, less than half a day after they came to this world, the quasi-monster master of this world came to the door.
Just like humans don't know what the ants are thinking in their hearts, Bai Zhi also doesn't know what the quasi-lord of ghost stories is thinking in his hearts.
Logically speaking, the opponent should be in the process of advancing from a quasi-Kaitan Lord to a Kaitan Lord, so they should not be interested in a team of players like them who are here to complete a mandatory mission.
But by chance, the other party came to the door...
Thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, and Bai Zhi couldn't think of a reasonable explanation.
The current clues are too complicated and confusing. Hospitals, doctors, nurses, patients, illnesses, cases... everything is like a ball of twine mixed together, turning into a mess.
… It’s impossible for the other party to accidentally come here while playing ball, right
Bai Zhi reached out and pressed his forehead, ignoring the others, and focused on the shadow puppet.
When he used the ghost realm to lead others to hide in the supermarket, at the same time, he also summoned the shadow puppet and stayed in the hall.
Others may need to worry about the consumption of sanity, but he does not need to worry about this at all. Even if the shadow puppet is affected, it will not cause any harm to himself.
What he was least worried about was mental attacks or influences. The reason shown as "???" gave him a lot of confidence.
If you are in the hall at this moment and look at it from a third-person perspective, you can see a figure with a strange smile on his face standing in the center of the hall.
Not long after, under the shadow puppet... or in other words, under Bai Zhi's gaze, the figure running down the stairs finally appeared.
—It was a little girl wearing a blue and white hospital gown that didn't fit very well.
The little girl's hospital gown was obviously one size too big and looked baggy. The slippers on her feet were also obviously one size too big. Her hair showed a dark color that had been infected by dark colors. Purple color.
At the same time, on her exposed arms and calves, dense growths were attached with black marks that resembled smiling faces.
If you observe carefully, you can clearly find that the black smile marks on the little girl are exactly the same as the smile expression on the shadow puppet's face at this moment.
The little girl didn't pay attention to the shadow puppet, or in other words, all her thoughts were on the "ball" rolling down the stairs.
It wasn't until she ran to the darkness and leaned down to pick up the ball rolling on the ground that she turned her head and glanced at the shadow puppet as if she noticed something.
Only at this moment did Bai Zhi see the little girl clearly.
Unlike other parts of her body that are covered with black smile marks, the little girl's face doesn't have any smile marks, but her whole face has that smiley face, and the eyes in her eyes are even more terrifying. Melt completely.
Not only that, while seeing the little girl's horrified face, Bai Zhi also saw the ball in the opponent's hand.
—It was a head with an extremely frightened expression, but still had a standard smile on his face.
The little girl's face was always smiling, just like the smile marks on her body. After spotting the shadow puppet looking towards her, she tilted her head slightly, and the other person smiled and stretched out towards the shadow puppet. Handed.
…Then the shadow puppet disappeared.
His vision was spinning for a moment, and the next moment, Bai Zhi found the shadow puppet's head appearing in the little girl's hand.
Bai Zhi: "..."
In a sense, the shadow puppet is equivalent to his shadow clone. Once the shadow puppet is declared dead, the body will turn into a shadow and dissipate, and he can also summon the shadow puppet again.
But under the influence of the little girl who didn't know whether she was the quasi-lord of ghost stories or not, Bai Zhi was speechless and found that the mechanism of the shadow puppet was stuck.
The body of the shadow puppet that fell backwards without its head did not turn into a shadow and dissipate as usual. Instead, it really fell there like a corpse, and the head of the shadow puppet that kept that smile appeared in the small Girl's hands.
After patting the newly acquired "ball" to try out the feel, the little girl casually threw the original "ball" aside, then happily hugged the "ball" and turned around into the darkness. among.
...At least judging from the smile that always remains on his face, he should be happy.
And it wasn't until the other party walked into the darkness that Bai Zhi cut off all contact with the shadow puppet.
Bai Zhi: "..."
Because after the skill was strengthened, the senses between him and the shadow puppet were shared, so before the connection was broken, he had a clear sense of what it was like when his head was used as a racket. Sour and refreshing feeling…
—It can only be said that this unprecedented experience is terrible.
"What's wrong with your face?"
She keenly noticed the change in Bai Zhi's expression. After a moment of hesitation, Ling Xiaoyi asked in a low voice.
"...Nothing, just a slight headache."
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Bai Zhi reached out and pressed his forehead slightly.
To be honest, he is feeling quite depressed now.
Under the premise that the shadow puppet's head was taken away by the little girl as a ball, perhaps because of the other party's power, he could not summon another one until the little girl found a brand new ball that could be used to replace it. New shadow puppet.
In addition, when he looked into the little girl's melting eyes just now, he received a prompt from the system.
