I'm being held captive by a monster

Chapter 66 Mom... (Today's third update, please read!)

"Did they find me?"

"No, no, this should be a ritual for gluttonous ghosts, and there's something wrong with this ghostland..."

Lin Xing'an looked serious.

All the ghost realms he had experienced before spread out instantly.

The ghost realm before our eyes is now even colder, more evil, and more terrifying.

But the speed of its spread was incredibly slow, like a snail crawling...

The mirror was only half a meter wide, but it took nearly half a minute for it to be completely covered by the ghost domain.

Lin Xing'an stood outside the ghost realm, reached into the ghost realm and pushed open the mirror.

There is no feeling.

He stepped halfway in again.

I also didn't feel anything unusual.

"I can't care about that anymore..."

Lin Xing'an gritted his teeth.

I don't know what the problem would be if I drilled it in completely though.

But now he has no other choice.

If you want to leave, you must go through the mirror into the room outside and then go out from the back garden!
Lin Xing'an didn't hesitate any longer.

"Uh!"

But as soon as he stepped into the ghost realm, he felt a heavy burden suddenly falling on him!

"Oh!"

The gravity seemed to have suddenly increased tenfold or a hundredfold, and Lin Xing'an, who was completely unprepared, was pressed to the ground with a bang!

He wanted to stand up, but just as he half-straightened up, it was as if an invisible hand slapped him down again.

And the ground in the ghost realm became like a forest swamp, unable to bear any weight.

Lin Xing'an's body was actually pulled into it bit by bit!
The pressure on his body and the suction of the quagmire made Lin Xing'an sink deeper the more he struggled!
He could only watch helplessly as the ghost domain continued to spread forward little by little, gradually leaving him behind!

"Uh……"

Lin Xing'an's face turned red unnaturally.

But there is no stress point on the whole body.

The pressure on his body was getting greater and greater, and it took all his strength for him to just raise his head, and even breathing was becoming difficult!
Can't get up at all!
Can't move at all!
"Even Yin Hui..."

A gloomy atmosphere appeared around him like a drop of water.

Although he was moving according to Lin Xing'an's will, Yin Hui also seemed to be carrying a heavy burden!
Even though Lin Xing'an had thought of the shapes countless times in his mind, the speed at which they gathered was incredibly slow!

Hurry, hurry...

Seeing that the ghost domain was about to encompass the entire room outside, Lin Xing'an bit his lips tightly, desperately stimulating his connection with the darkness!

But no matter how hard he tried, the speed at which the darkness gathered before his eyes was like downloading a 4K movie from a network disk, too slow!
Damn it...

Lin Xing'an was breathing heavily and sweat was pouring down like a waterfall!
Moreover, just being in this ghostland made it difficult for him to move forward.

I haven't even stepped out of the mirror and left the secret room yet!

Once this ghost domain is completely formed, he will surely die even without the intervention of the gluttonous ghost!
Not to mention that in such an extreme environment where he felt as if he was carrying a thousand pounds, his physical strength was like snow under boiling water, dissipating at a terrifying speed!
In just half a minute it felt like climbing thirty floors!
"Gudong!"

At this moment, Lin Xing'an suddenly realized.

If he can't get out now, he will die!
Even if he had enough physical strength, he couldn't even gather the darkness, and he couldn't even commit suicide!

"Uh!"

Lin Xing'an groaned, blinked fiercely, and focused his energy even more!
The ghost domain spreads inch by inch...

The darkness gradually gathered...

Drops of sweat dripped down Lin Xing'an's head...

With his best efforts in control, the darkness was barely able to form the shape of a rope.

But even if it condenses into shape, even if it floats in the air, it will still only move forward inch by inch!
The ghost realm has almost covered the entire room.

Although it's only two or three meters.

But this distance...

Lin Xing'an's hope of escaping is extremely slim...

despair……

The harder he tried, the weaker he felt; the more he struggled, the deeper he sunk, a feeling that made Lin Xing'an look painful.

"go……"

He bit his lip, his pupils trembled, and his temples throbbed.

Go, go, go!

Lin Xing'an's body couldn't stop shaking.

The [wave] surged within his body, constantly restoring his strength.

Whenever he recovered a little, Lin Xing'an would take out a little. Whenever he recovered a millimeter, Lin Xing'an would take out a millimeter!
What is death rollback?
What do you mean start over again?
useless……

It's all useless.

Just this once!

Lin Xing'an used up all his physical strength in controlling Yin Hui!

"Uh!"

He groaned, and every cell in his body seemed to be exerting force!
Under his desperate control, Yin Hui gradually approached the boundary of the ghost realm...

So tired, so tired, so tired...

I can’t hold on any longer…

I really have no strength left...

The feeling of exhaustion made Lin Xing'an's eyes blurry.

but……

Almost there…

Just a little bit closer!
Either continue or die here!

Lin Xing'an watched as the rope transformed by Yin Hui first advanced at the same speed as the speed at which the ghost domain spread.

Then the distance was slowly shortened until it was infinitely close to the ghost realm!

"what!"

at last!

The moment Yin Hui rushed out of the ghost realm, he became extremely light!

It suddenly stretched out with Lin Xing'an's belief!

After flying out of the window, it tightly wrapped around the trunk of the old tree outside and snapped tight!

"it is good!"

Lin Xing'an held the darkness tightly, feeling horrified!
Even though he was still stuck in the quagmire, even though the darkness shrank, it couldn't pull him out of the ghost realm all at once.

But now, at least there is a point of leverage!

"call!"

Lin Xing'an opened his mouth wide and took a deep breath.

Then he pulled Yinhui with both hands, gritted his teeth, and pulled himself out of the muddy ground little by little, and stood up from the ground little by little.

A little bit...

Bang!
Just when Lin Xing'an was about to straighten his legs, the gravity around him suddenly increased!
Suddenly overwhelmed him again!
"Boom boom boom!"

Lin Xing'an's heart was beating fast and he felt dazed.

But after only resting for half a second, he gritted his teeth again, grabbed Yin Hui, and tried his best to stand up!

"Bang!" "Bang!"

"Oh!"

But this ghost realm seemed to be deliberately playing tricks on him.

Whenever Lin Xing'an was about to stand up, the thousand-pound gravity and resistance would suddenly surge and push him down.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't resist the impact.

Once, twice, three times...

Lin Xing'an was breathing heavily and his body was shaking uncontrollably.

What I saw before my eyes was the kind of blackness caused by severe lack of blood supply to the brain after collapse.

There were bursts of sharp sounds in my ears, as if the nerves in my brain were exploding!
Are you out of strength?
Yes.

Can't hold on any longer?

Yes……

Then give up.

……no……

I am not satisfied!
The darkness wrapped around Lin Xing'an's hands in circles.

He held his breath, groaned, and stood up again little by little with sweat pouring down his face.

Just hold on to that...

Just hold on for a moment...

Sweat blurred Lin Xing'an's eyes, so he simply closed them.

here we go again……

Whenever he was about to stand up completely, that force that seemed to be deliberately teasing him would appear.

Start by increasing the speed gradually, and then when you feel you can handle it, suddenly exert force...

Lin Xing'an held his breath.

The sound of my own heartbeat in my ears was like the beating of a drum before a battle.

It’s coming, it’s coming…

You must resist...

must……

Yin Hui tightened his arms.

Lin Xing'an's face flushed red, and he stood straighter and straighter, but...

"Oh!"

Just like the previous times, when Lin Xing'an was about to stand up, that force attacked again!

He had obviously made sufficient preparations.

He had obviously tried his best.

But at that moment when gravity pressed down...

Lin Xing'an opened his eyes in confusion.

Or... can't bear it?

At this moment, he clearly felt that all the strength gathered in his body was shattered by this gravity.

Then...

His body slowly fell down...

"Snapped……"

But just when Lin Xing'an felt that all his strength was gone and his body was about to fall into the abyss.

One hand supported him from behind.

"Good boy, come on~"

Yu Yu's gentle voice suddenly sounded in Lin Xing'an's mind.

Although the sound was not loud, it dispelled all the noise in Lin Xing'an's ears.

"Don't be afraid, dear, mom is here~"

The surrounding environment had unexpectedly turned into the courtyard of the community that Lin Xing'an was most familiar with.

And his body seemed to have returned to the time when he was about one year old and learning to walk.

In front of him, Yu Yu was half-squatting, smiling with his arms open, waiting for him to stand up and come over.

Is this an illusion?

Lin Xing'an was in a daze for a moment.

Indeed, at this moment he had no energy to control his emotions.

Every time I am about to get up, I always have some hope.

So... was it that hallucinatory ghost that discovered me?
wrong……

If she finds me, there's no need to use illusions...

So this ghost realm contains hallucinatory ghosts, and it also has hallucinogenic effects...

But why do the hallucinations I see encourage me...

Lin Xing'an looked at Yu Yu in front of him, his eyes full of confusion.

"Dear baby, come to mommy."

"Don't be afraid~"

Yu Yu clapped his hands and smiled gently.

From her smile, her tone, and her movements, Lin Xing'an actually felt a surge of power...

He seemed to have really turned into a child who was just learning to walk.

With Yu Yu's encouragement, he felt his legs stiffly, tamed his limbs stiffly, and stood up stiffly bit by bit.

A little bit...

Being embraced by Yu Yu.

"My dear, that's awesome~"

At this moment, in this illusion, in Yu Yu's arms, Lin Xing'an actually felt the warmth of maternal love.

"mom……"

He called out softly in a trance.

Yu Yu at home seemed to feel something and trembled.

The cosmetics in her hand fell to the ground and shattered with a bang.

"Gudong..."

The illusion before Lin Xing'an dissipated like smoke...

He raised his head.

I was standing in this 20-square-meter bedroom, my arms wrapped in darkness.

The ghost domain is still slowly spreading.

But Lin Xing'an had already broken free from the quagmire underground and stood up intact.

"..."

He closed his eyes and gritted his teeth.

Groaning, he moved forward step by step, approaching the border of the ghost realm step by step!
PS: What do you think of the illustrations in each chapter? Do they affect your reading rhythm? If not, deduct 1, if yes, deduct 2. If they affect your reading, I will not post the pictures later.

PPS: I only let the AI draw Yu Yu because I have trained it to only draw Yu Yu. If it draws someone else, it will have to discard Yu Yu and retrain it...
