Chapter 37 Taking Ruthless Measures
Chapter 37 Taking Ruthless Measures (Please Read On)
Lu Ming did not accept the Holy Grail because he truly did not need it, nothing more.
His statement, "You need this more than I do," was not just bravado, but the absolute truth.
After all, in this horror movie scenario, when he meets Chu Renmei, it's probably the latter who needs to throw the Holy Grail into the sky to save her life.
Of course, losing it is useless.
I'll still get rid of it for you.
However, from Chen Xin's and others' perspective, Lu Ming's refusal to accept the Holy Grail takes on a different meaning.
They believed that Lu Ming had completely given up hope of living and had chosen to give up on himself, which was why he hadn't taken the Holy Grail that could save his life.
Wu Lei shook his head and sighed, "Never mind, let's go upstairs first."
They have done everything they could. Everyone here is an adult and has the right to make their own decisions. It is undoubtedly foolish to interfere with others without their consent.
···········
After leaving the ordinary residential area, Lu Ming headed towards the city center.
After spending time with them, he found that Wu Lei and Chen Xin were, to some extent, good people. As for Xia Lili, Lu Ming hadn't paid much attention to her, so he didn't really know her.
However, being merely a good person doesn't mean much.
Not only in the Main God Space, but also in the Mysterious Resurrection World, simple good people will only do bad things with good intentions, just like Tong Qian.
Lu Ming couldn't criticize this kind of person, but he would never approve of them either.
In other words, the world is not lacking in good people, but in capable good people.
Lu Ming couldn't easily draw a conclusion about what kind of people his teammates were right now.
···········
Upon arriving in the city center, Lu Ming discovered that he was now a penniless man with only a few thousand yuan. However, he didn't care about it and even found it quite amusing.
After becoming a Ghost Tamer, money was just a number to Lu Ming. Even wealthy merchants with a fortune would have to bow down to him. After all, it's easy for any normal person to tell whether life or money is more important.
Lu Ming hadn't experienced this kind of life for a long time, where he only had a few thousand yuan in his pocket and could do whatever he wanted.
On a whim, Lu Ming walked into a very old internet cafe, asked the manager to bring him a bowl of instant noodles, and turned on the computer to play Red Alert.
This gave him a rare sense that he was still truly alive in this world, rather than having entered a hell of endless reincarnation.
···········
the other side.
Wu Lei and the others started setting up inside the room.
Chen Xin said this was feng shui knowledge she learned in another instance, but she didn't know if it would be useful for the ghosts in this world.
While they were busy, news kept coming from Xiaoming and the others that almost all the people who participated in the spirit communication game in Huangshan Village that day had died.
Big B fell to his death after getting lost in a maze.
Biggie was possessed by a ghost. While sharpening a knife, she sang an unknown nursery rhyme at home: "Rowing the oars, the oars are moving, Grandma Egg wants to eat meat, but there is no fat, no oil, and no taste." She strangled her mother at home with a rope and then swallowed a knife to commit suicide.
Jack, an employee of the newspaper, was killed by a cold, ghostly hand that suddenly reached out from below while he was using the toilet.
Even Xiaoming's girlfriend, Annie, suffered a mental breakdown under the influence of the ghost and died from an overdose of sleeping pills.
Upon learning this news, Wu Lei, Chen Xin, and Xia Lili, residents of the community, waited anxiously for a whole day.
However, nothing happened that day.
That evening, Wu Lei set up an exorcism array in the living room and drew the curtains, plunging the room into complete darkness.
In the dimly lit environment, only the candlelight flickered eerily.
There was no difference from the daytime; nothing happened overnight.
Until the third night.
As the sun set and night fell, the dark sky remained calm and still. Although none of the three had yet directly confronted the ghost, none dared to relax their guard in the slightest.
After all, the chances of passing a three-star difficulty dungeon without encountering any danger are extremely low.
As the last glimmer of light disappeared, everything around became silent and profound, so dark that one could not see their own hand in front of their face. Suddenly, a gust of cold wind rose from nowhere, causing the curtains to rustle and the candlelight inside the room to flicker.
The ghost is coming.
Wu Lei was on edge and said, "No matter what happens next, don't panic. Just hold on for the last bit of time, and we'll be able to leave alive."
The idea that you can clear the dungeon as long as you persevere sounds simple, but in reality, it is extremely difficult.
"That thing is here."
A cold wind lifted the curtains on the side, but when the three of them looked at the curtains on the balcony, they found that there was nothing there.
Instead, after he looked away, a tall, ghostly figure dressed in a blue opera robe appeared very close to Wu Lei.
The ghost's long black hair was wet, as if it had just come out of the water, and water was still dripping down.
Cold, stiff, and exuding an indescribable strangeness.
The ghost's movement was even more incomprehensible; with each flash, it would appear in a new place.
Whoosh!
Chu Renmei raised her hand and grabbed Wu Lei by the neck, lifting him into the air.
Wu Lei hadn't expected the female ghost to be so strong; she was almost as strong as him, who was also a powerhouse.
He tried to struggle, but even breathing became difficult, and his face turned ashen. If nothing unexpected happened, Wu Lei would die soon.
However, from Chen Xin and Xia Lili's perspective, this scene presented a completely different picture.
The ghost had disappeared, and there was nothing in front of Wu Lei, but he was still tightly choking himself, about to pass out.
For some reason, Chen Xin suddenly recalled the words Lu Ming left behind when he departed.
"Once you realize that everything you see is an illusion, it won't be difficult for you to survive for two days."
Logically speaking, Lu Ming was just a newcomer and shouldn't know any useful information.
But Chen Xin can't care about that anymore.
What if?
What if Lu Ming really does have some useful clues...?
If he doesn't try, Wu Lei will strangle himself to death, and he might not even know what kind of supernatural attack he suffered until he dies.
With the only Tier 3 challenger in the team dead, Chen Xin is next.
You must not sit still and wait for death.
Thinking of this, Chen Xin gritted her teeth and grabbed an ashtray from the table next to her.
The ashtray is made of glass and is extremely heavy to carry.
She went up to Wu Lei, who was pinching himself, and smashed the ashtray hard on his forehead!
Boom!
With a muffled thud, Wu Lei staggered and fell to the ground, dark red blood slowly flowing down his forehead.
PS: The current dungeon is almost over.
