Mysterious Resurrection: I am practicing magic in troubled times

Chapter 180 Human Headworm

After a final scan and no other exits were found, Zhang Qian did not dare to delay and rushed towards the door not far away.

If you wait any longer, whether the stone brick road collapses due to gnawing or being targeted by invisible monsters, it will not be a good outcome.

However, the distance between the door and the ground was not far. In just a few seconds, Zhang Qian was already standing in front of the door.

The smooth door body shows no traces of time, and there is not a trace of dust or scratches on it.

Putting one hand on the door and pressing it lightly, Zhang Qian realized that the door felt very heavy, not like wood, but more like two huge rocks.

The force exerted on his hand gradually increased, but the door on that side remained motionless, as if it was not a door, but just a wall with carvings.

Obviously, this door also requires supernatural power to open.

There was no handle on the door, so Zhang Qian could only press it against the door, intending to use his true energy to force it open.

"I suggest you do it faster." The puppet couldn't help but remind.

The rustling sounds behind him are gradually becoming denser, and more and more unknown entities are awakening in the darkness.

Even if they are still focusing on the stone bricks now, it won't be long before they eat them all, and then the puppets and Zhang Qian will be the ones to suffer.

Seeing that the door had just opened a tiny gap, Zhang Qian immediately threw the puppet to the ground, "Then you go down and hold it for a while."

To open this door requires a heavy amount of supernatural power. Even Zhang Qian is not qualified after devoting part of his power to suppress the doll.

But now he abandoned the puppet and reached the door with both hands at the same time. As expected, the door opened more than half as fast.

"No!" the puppet yelled and landed on the stone bricks.

Suddenly, those rustling sounds stopped for a moment.

This silence did not make the doll feel at all at ease. It felt like a hot bun just out of the oven, surrounded by homeless people who had been hungry for 80 years, staring at it eagerly.

Without any time to think about it, the doll's limbs quickly scraped the ground to get back to Zhang Qian, "Even if you can't spare your hands, you can carry me on your back. It would be too heartless to just throw it away after use."

"Let's play." Zhang Qian didn't even bother to look at it, and kicked the puppet aside casually.

The puppet was about to get angry, but a round thing appeared in front of it.

"Use this eyeball first, and leave from here first." Zhang Qian said without turning his head.

Now that the situation is special, it’s time for the puppet to do something.

The doll's own supernatural powers alone probably won't last long, but giving it an eyeball can help it resist for just a little longer.

Moreover, the eyes need to meet each other to launch an attack. Even if the puppet wants to use it to sneak attack Zhang Qian, it will be restrained by the attack pattern of the ghost face and cannot succeed.

"Quack, you finally figured it out." The puppet screamed twice, picked up the eyeballs without wiping them, and just stuffed them into his own eyes.

The original eyes were forcibly squeezed into the empty head, and now the doll has one eye completely white and the whole eye dark, making it look inexplicably weird.

Zhang Qian, who was not far away, witnessed the whole process and couldn't help but be a little envious of this ability.

There are no prerequisites, and it is really shameless to directly use Li Gui's supernatural power.

If you can escape from the ghost ship, you might be able to invite the doll to your home to play with it.

Nothing else, just to discuss the secrets of alchemy together.

The puppet equipped with the ghost eye no longer shrank toward Zhang Qian in fear. Instead, it lay on the ground and let the weird eye scan around.

The pinpoint-sized black pupils sometimes expanded and sometimes contracted. Although there was no other movement, it was certain that many things had fallen under such an attack.Obviously, the things in the garbage room cannot compare to the horror of the ghost eyes, and they can only survive for a moment under the attack of the ghost eyes.

But the number of these things is really terrifying. The pupils of the ghost eyes flash and flicker as if they are sending a telegram. The number of attacks is increasing, and the frequency is not slowing down, but is gradually increasing.

Although the puppet cannot see what is in the space, it can still determine its approximate location based on the sight of the ghost eyes.

The distance between those creatures and it is shortening. When it landed, the ghost eye's line of sight was still ten meters away, but now the distance has been shortened by half.

In other words, Ghost Eye's defense would collapse in less than a minute.

Fortunately, Zhang Qian's side is finished.

"Let's go!" Zhang Qian picked up the doll.

Just when he let go, the already opened door showed signs of closing again, but the gap left was enough for them to pass through.

Zhang Qian slipped into the gap sideways and without enough time to observe the situation inside, Zhang Qian threw the puppet down and turned around to press it against the door.

"Bam—"

The door closed with a bang, but something rushed out from the darkness.

A dark wind blew by, bypassing Zhang Qian in front of him, and went straight to the puppet on the ground.

"Do you really think I'm easy to bully?" The doll was lying on the ground, not even bothering to move.

With just a flicker of his right eye, the attack was already accomplished.

With a snap, something invisible fell to the floor in front of them.

After a while, it seemed that the supernatural being in the body was dispersed by the puppet, and the appearance of the thing slowly appeared.

"This is... what the hell?" Zhang Qian couldn't find the words to describe the strange creature on the ground.

Different from the ghosts I have seen before, this thing has a particularly strange shape.

The elongated body is nearly one meter long. The entire body is about the thickness of a wrist. There are no limbs on it. It is entirely composed of bones with edges and corners.

There is an extremely abrupt human head on the front of the slender body. The head is at least four or five times thicker than the body. It is not clear where the body can get such strength to drag the head to fly.

The whole creature looked like a head connected to a spine, but there were no ribs on the spine, and there were no traces of blood or flesh.

It could be that it was already decomposed, or it could be that the person who deboned it was highly skilled.

After listening carefully, there was no movement from behind the door. This guy's kindred had probably given up on chasing them.

"Crack-"

After a crisp sound, the white spine detached from the head.

The puppet was attracted by Zhang Qian's movements and asked curiously: "What are you doing with this thing?"

"Try it, it won't be in vain anyway." Zhang Qian held the spine in his hand nonchalantly.

The connection between the bones has not been broken, and they fit together tightly, a bit like a whip.

After waving it casually, he couldn't help but nodded, "It feels pretty good. If I had known, I would have killed two more."
