I Kill Gods in Escape Game

Chapter 77: Forest Ghost 5
The ghostly blue will-o'-the-wisp fire flew straight towards Lin Yuan and the other two like a missile locked onto its target.

The rapidly approaching blue fireball was reflected in Lin Yuan's pupils, and she felt a chill like an ice thorn that almost froze her eyes.

She raised her hunting knife and chopped at the ghost in front of her.

A thin layer of ice instantly appeared on the silver-iron blade that touched the ghost, and a misty white mist swirled up from the blade.

——The ghost passes through the hunting knife, and the hunting knife cannot cause damage to the ghost without a physical body.

Lin Yuan's pupils suddenly shrank, and she reacted quickly by turning sideways, narrowly avoiding the ghost that was running towards her.

The ghostly blue fire did not stop and continued to fly towards the next person at an extremely fast speed.

At that time, the deer's breathing stagnated slightly, and it pounced on the path covered with rotten leaves. Close to the pile of fallen leaves, its nostrils were filled with the rotten, suffocating smell of decay.

The will-o'-the-wisp passed over her head and rushed towards the next person.

Seeing that the target seemed to have become his own ghost, Yuan Fang ran away.

But this time, probably because there was no one else behind Yuan Fang, the ghost locked onto Yuan Fang and never changed its target.

Yuan Fang looked at the ghost chasing him, and simply gritted his teeth and shouted: "I'll hold it back first, you guys think of a way!"

At this moment, the ghost's flames vibrated rapidly, and a powerful force struck into the mind like a hammer.

It instantly affected the three people still in the cemetery.

Yuan Fang couldn't run anymore and fell down in front of a tombstone without a sound.

His body muscles twitched strangely, as if he still remembered that he wanted to run.

The stuffed bear in Shi Lu's arms suddenly cracked open, and she quickly spoke:
"Players in the cemetery are immune to the ghost's mental attacks!"

Standing at the edge of the cemetery, Lin Yuan's brain seemed to have been hit hard. Fragments of snow kept flashing before his eyes, and his consciousness seemed to jump to another time and space.

Her body lost its support, and almost instinctively, Lin Yuan plunged the hunting knife into the soil, slightly bent her body and stood stubbornly, her eyes looking towards the place where the ghost fire was flickering, but her eyes were unfocused.

"Forget it, just forget it."

……Who is speaking?
A familiar voice murmured, and Lin Yuan suddenly remembered that this voice had appeared in his dream.

[Pressure value: +10]

Lin Yuan watched the pressure value on the panel slowly rise, her heart pounding, almost jumping out of her chest.

She knew that once the stress value exceeded 50, her body and mind would enter a mysterious state.

Although she didn't know the reason for the appearance of the pressure bar, Lin Yuan was certain at this moment that if the pressure could break through that threshold, she might have the ability to resist the strange characteristics of ghosts.

The pressure number is jumping slowly, Lin Yuan must do something to make the pressure value increase faster.

Compared to the dual identity badges given to her by the game bug, perhaps the stress value that is closely related to her emotional state is the golden finger that is independent of the rules of the game and truly belongs to her.

A tiny red light swam in the palm of her hand, piercing her palm lines like a moving sharp knife, and blood dripped out from between her fingers.

As if in response to the previous voice, Lin Yuan's chest rose and fell violently, and he suddenly shouted:
"...I haven't forgotten!"

The words that came out of his mouth with great difficulty, as soon as they landed on his lips, caused a huge uproar in the depths of his soul.

[Pressure value: +50]

Thick blood mist once again filled the field of vision, as if the master had returned and forcefully drove away the ghost.

When his consciousness returned to clarity, Lin Yuan saw the ghost clearly, picked up his hunting knife, and chased after it with a heart filled with resentment.

*
"Players in the cemetery are immune to the ghost's mental attacks!"

Shi Lu had just shouted this sentence, but the expected depressed mood did not appear. She looked at Yuan Fang in surprise.

Yuan Fang, who was lying on the ground and kowtowing to the tombstone, suddenly woke up, looked back at the ghost, and continued to run. "The property is taking effect, why is my side effect not coming?"

As doubts just arose, Shi Lu's whole body froze, and he watched Lin Yuan, who was full of murderous intent, chasing after the ghost.

Shi Lu's back was soaked with cold sweat, her heartbeat was deafening, and her fingertips were curled up tightly, tearing the skin of the stuffed bear.

...The pressure Lin Yuan gave her was much greater than that of Ghost.

But now is not the time to think about that.

Shi Lu took a deep breath and murmured, "All hunter attacks are effective against ghosts."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his heart.

Shi Lu buried his head in the arms of the stuffed bear and sat down in a pile of dead leaves, not even having the strength to open his eyes.

the other side.

Lin Yuan's mind was only focused on the ghost running around, so he naturally didn't notice that the knife that chopped at the ghost's will-o'-the-wisp had become a little different.

Yuan Fang would look back every time he ran a certain distance. He found that Lin Yuan was chasing the ghost, and the hunting knife was able to cut off some of the ghost fire every time.

He didn't know where the sense of trust came from, but he believed that Lin Yuan's speed would definitely be faster than the will-o'-the-wisp.

After seeing the road ahead clearly, Yuan Fang made a bold decision.

He had a stern face and straightened his back, as if he was cheering himself up.

Then, Yuan Fang rushed into a dead end with no way out.

The ghost chased him closely, and Lin Yuan also followed.

"Lin Yuan, you have to keep going." Yuan Fang breathed heavily, hot sweat dripping down his forehead like a waterfall. "The ghost is trapped in the alley, and I am trapped in the alley too."

"If you're one step slower than the ghost, I'll..."

Before he could finish his words, a chill ran straight to the back of his head and Yuan Fang's body froze. At that moment, even his breathing fell silent.

Zheng——

As if his soul had returned, Yuan Fang dragged his heavy body forward and crawled back in fear, just in time to see this scene.

The moon was covered by dark clouds. A hunter with blood on his hands was holding a hunting knife with a blue ghost skewered on it.

The tip of the knife pierced into a stone tablet, and several cracks appeared on the stone tablet engraved with the epitaph. Under the dim blue firelight, it looked like the sharp claws of a devil reaching out from the ground.

Lin Yuan tightly gripped the hunting knife, her dark eyes hiding cruelty and bloodlust. She looked at the blue will-o'-the-wisp fire dancing wildly, its light becoming dimmer and dimmer, but the strength in her grip on the knife did not decrease at all.

As the last glimmer of light completely dissipated, a prompt appeared on the panel.

You killed the monster.

Receiving the hint of the ghost's death, Lin Yuan pulled the hunting knife out of the stone tablet, looked down at Yuan Fang who had a horrified expression, then turned to look at Shi Lu who was almost fainted.

Yuan Fang wiped the sweat off his face, tremblingly got up from the ground, and said: "Lin, Lin Yuan, the plot props are right there..."

He pointed his finger at a tombstone.

At this moment, Lin Yuan seemed to have lost his emotions. He looked at Yuan Fang indifferently without saying a word, then turned and walked towards the tombstone.
