My father has the appearance of an emperor

Chapter 30 Hide and Seek (Part )
It’s Fatty Zheng’s voice!
Jiang Chen understood that this guy was most likely dead.

This made his heart slightly nervous. In the dark environment and lonely atmosphere, Jiang Chen could even hear the pounding sound of his own heart.

boom!
boom!
boom!
wrong.

Jiang Chen's pupils dilated slightly. This was not the sound of a heartbeat, but the sound of footsteps.

Someone is coming up.

The footsteps made a creaking sound on the floor, which brought with it a creepy chill, and Jiang Chen felt an inexplicable chill in his heart.

It's approaching!

Getting closer!
boom!
The footsteps stopped in front of the door, followed by the sound of the doorknob turning.

Crunch!Crunch!
It didn't open, and then there was a banging sound on the door, but it seemed that the door was as solid as the window and could not be broken.

The footsteps sounded again, gradually moving away.

"call!"

Jiang Chen let out a long breath.

He didn't know who was hunting them, but the powerful pressure in the darkness made Jiang Chen feel inexplicably palpitating.

When Jiang Chen thought of those inexplicable existences in Gui City, he felt that no matter who they were, he didn't want to face them.

At least I am not qualified to face it now.

"Very...exciting...right..."

A faint voice suddenly sounded beside my ears.

Who is speaking?

Jiang Chen's hair stood on end in shock.

He slowly turned around and saw that the model next to him suddenly turned his head, grinned at him and smiled gently.

"Damn it!" Jiang Chen blurted out.

boom!
Jiang Chen has fallen into endless darkness.

…………

When he opened his eyes, Jiang Chen found himself by the fireplace in the lobby on the first floor.

To his horror, he couldn't see his own body.

Am I a fucking soul?

what's the situation?
Shouldn't there be eight lives?
The system subtitles flashed before my eyes: "Ghost form for twenty minutes. In this form, you are invisible and will not be discovered. Please cherish your time and find a good hiding spot."

So that’s it?
Each resurrection lasts for twenty minutes in ghost form.

In other words, if you have nine lives, theoretically you can be invisible for a maximum of 180 minutes. Add the initial 20 minutes, which means you will definitely not be discovered for more than three hours.

Feel yourself at this moment.

In ghost form, he couldn't see his hands or his body. It felt like he was playing a first-person shooter game - he could see everything around him except himself.

This vision was the same as when he used the power of the underworld, pale, dark, and gray, as if the entire hall was covered in ash.

look up……

Jiang Chen could not feel his head. The so-called raising of head actually meant raising his field of vision, and the ancient wall clock in the hall appeared in front of him.

Thirty-five minutes passed.

Twenty minutes is the hiding time, which means that the ghost actually found him in just fifteen minutes.

The question is how did it get in? Why is it the way the model is?

Jiang Chen couldn't even remember how he died. The last scene he saw before he died was the puppet model smiling at him.

Then it was gone.

Damn, am I not extraordinary?

What use would I have for this power? It's still a one-shot kill!
Wait, I didn’t seem to use any strength just now?
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen opened his mouth wide in surprise.

Powers... Characteristics...

He felt himself and began to try to circulate the netherworld power in his body.

He was pleasantly surprised to find that although he could not sense any part of his body, he could sense the power of the Netherworld and could even call upon it, but he could not direct it outward.

That is to say, in ghost state, he cannot use the power of the underworld to cause mental shock to others, and physical attack is even more impossible.

Jiang Chen tried to use it himself, and the system prompt appeared again in front of him:
"You used the power of the underworld. Your ghost form can be extended for a maximum of five minutes."

I wipe! ! !

Is this it?

Yes, I'm not turning into a ghost directly, I'm just prolonging the original ghost form, that's much simpler.

This also made Jiang Chen realize a problem: because the progress of the power of chaos is high, he has always focused on the power of chaos.

But there was actually a big problem with the help Jiang Luo gave him, that is, Jiang Luo did not know which type of novice area his son would enter, so the good things he gave his son might not necessarily play a big role in the current situation.

On the contrary, the 5% netherworld power that Jiang Chen received as a reward at the end of his first mission had obvious significance for this mission.

I used to rely too much on my dad, which was wrong!
Realizing that he still had to rely on his own efforts, Jiang Chen tried to move forward.

Well, it's very simple.

Although he lost the feeling of his legs, he could move forward as long as he focused his mind, but the speed was slower than normal.

He floated upstairs quietly.

After floating a few steps, Jiang Chen stopped again.

No, this won't work!
The hiding place I found might not be secretive enough, but the door was locked and it was difficult for the ghost to get in. But even so, I was still killed.

It can be seen that general hiding is useless!

But the association said that Chaos Realm will not give you tasks that are impossible to complete, and the novice levels are generally relatively simple. It’s mainly about adapting, so there must be a way.

"Don't rush to solve the problem in one go. Sometimes it's worthwhile to pay some price to find the answer. As long as you find the right direction, you can get twice the result with half the effort. Memorize it a hundred times!"

Jiang Chen's mind echoed with his father's words.

Yes, I still have eight lives, but these eight lives should not be used to delay time, but to find solutions to problems.

I didn't observe it carefully enough before, maybe I should observe it again now.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen returned to the first floor.

Start looking from the first floor.

He came to the restaurant again and found that the old man with the head was still sitting there, but the big zombie blocking the passage was gone.

Jiang Chen groped along the road and called out to the golden worm.

I was pleased to find that the golden worm could still function even in ghost form, but it was a pity that there was no place for it to function.

After searching around and finding nothing, Jiang Chen floated towards the second floor.

Time was running out, he had to give himself five minutes to hide.

Just then, he saw the big zombie walking towards him from the corridor behind, holding an oversized rusty kitchen knife in his hand.

boom!
boom!
It made heavy footsteps, and each step seemed to step on other people's hearts, shaking people to the point of fear.

That’s right, it was this thing that had hit the door in the attic before. Even with such a big size, it couldn’t break the door. Jiang Chen guessed that everything here had been reinforced by “magic”.

The big zombie obviously didn't see him. He just walked past him, opened a door and entered.

It looked around and came behind a curtain.

When the curtain was opened, Brother Long’s terrified face appeared.

It seems that this guy has died once, otherwise he wouldn't move.

The big zombie has slowly raised the kitchen knife.

"No!" Brother Long shouted, rushed over suddenly, hugged the big zombie and rammed it.
