"Lucas!"
A bad feeling crept into Wuyin's heart.
He quickly turned to look at Lucas's location, and when he saw the scene before him, he even held his breath for a moment.
Lucas's chest was being brutally pierced by numerous soft tentacles, and blood was gushing out continuously.
His expression remained fixed on the foreign object in his chest, his pupils slightly widened, his face filled with disbelief.
But his body had already gone slightly limp, and without support, he was hanging on the tentacles.
Many tiny tentacles extend backward into a larger, thicker tentacle, which resembles a human finger transformed into a soft form.
Extending further back, there is a pitch-black void that tears space apart.
The tentacles emerged from this hole.
Wuyin saw Lucas's hand reach into his pocket, where half a black card was sticking out.
It looks like he didn't even have time to crush the summoning card before...
Li Fan gritted his teeth, looking at the lifeless Lucas. Images of his time with Lucas flashed through his mind, including the sweet and sour pork ribs Lucas made.
His hands clenched into fists, then slowly relaxed, and finally only a sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart.
The tentacle pierced the heart; even with Lucas's powerful healing abilities, he couldn't survive without a heart.
Wuyin gripped the scalpel tightly and walked forward expressionlessly.
As if it had eyes, the tentacle saw this and quickly retreated back into the spatial rift.
The spatial rift slowly closed, as if nothing had happened in this place.
Lucas's body, now without any support, fell straight to the ground.
Wu Xin, who was standing nearby, quickly went over to help him up and then gently placed Lucas's body on the ground.
Her eyes were vacant; she just stared blankly at Lucas on the ground, muttering to herself unconsciously.
"How could this happen... If I had been near Uncle Lucas just now, with my protective shield, he wouldn't have died."
Wuyin walked up to Lucas, squatted down, and gently crushed the black card in his pocket.
With a crisp "crack," his body slowly disappeared into the space.
……
The Ghost Stories Command Center.
Honglong is overwhelmed by the deluge of public opinion and various speculations.
Although he had his assistant issue a timely notice to urge the public not to speculate, he couldn't keep a close watch on every single person's mouth.
There are always some gossipy people speculating about Wuyin's situation in the ghost stories, and some pessimists even spread rumors that the Dragon Kingdom will soon be completely invaded by ghost stories.
Such remarks have caused widespread panic and have had a significant negative impact on society.
Although he has arrested the few people whose actions had a particularly negative impact and blocked all the popular posts about ghost stories and speculations, the turmoil in society has not subsided.
He was pacing back and forth in the Ghost Stories Command Center, glancing at the live stream screen every now and then, but each time it was just static, which made him extremely frustrated.
At that moment, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a person lying motionless on the ground.
He looked closer with some confusion and discovered that there was a huge hole in the man's back that extended to his chest, and blood was still gushing out of the large hole.
Upon seeing the scene before him, a disturbing image involuntarily flashed through his mind.
In an instant, a buzzing sound swept over his entire head, and even his ears were screaming sharply.
Red Dragon stared intently at the corpse before him, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.
He kept reassuring himself, telling himself that things weren't as he thought, and that perhaps it was just some strange thing that had accidentally been transported to the real world through some odd place.
But whatever he might be wondering, he would eventually have to face it.
He took a deep breath and walked slowly, his steps trembling, to the corpse.
With trembling hands, he had to grit his teeth to muster the strength to gently turn the body over.
A familiar face appeared before him.
At this moment, this sense of familiarity felt like the arrival of death, plunging people into extreme panic.
Red Dragon could no longer control his strength; his legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground.
"Impossible, this isn't real, it's an illusion..."
Then, as if realizing something, he immediately shouted loudly.
"Assistant! Quickly, call the doctor! Hurry!!!"
The assistant who had been standing at the door heard the tremor in Red Dragon's voice. Although he was slightly puzzled, he hurriedly ran to call all the doctors stationed in the Ghost Story Command Center.
Chapter 260 Three-Dimensional and Four-Dimensional
Soon after, a group of doctors wearing white coats and carrying medical kits all walked into the Ghost Story Command Center.
When they saw what was happening, they all froze on the spot, and not one of them wanted to step forward to help.
Honglong looked at the group of doctors who were standing there dumbfounded and couldn't help but shout angrily.
"Hurry up and save them, you bunch of useless trash! The country pays you to stand here and freeload, is that all?"
This was the first time he had ever been so angry, and also the first time he had ever been so terrified.
The doctors exchanged glances and stood silently in place, none of them ready to step forward.
A doctor said, his voice trembling.
"Commander..."
"He has no chance of survival..."
"Useless! You bunch of useless trash!"
Red Dragon shouted angrily.
In truth, he knew perfectly well that Lucas had no chance of survival, but he still couldn't help but lash out at the doctors.
He was on the verge of emotional collapse and needed an outlet.
The innocent doctors stood there, looking at each other, and finally just lowered their heads, letting the poor old man scold them.
They felt a pang of fear when they saw Lucas's body, but no one dared to show it.
Just then, a sweet voice came over.
"Uncle Honglong, I noticed you've been a bit unhappy lately, so I brought you some delicious snacks and candies."
Because Pari was the only one living in that villa during this period, she inevitably felt a bit lonely, so she often came to the Ghost Story Command Center to chat with Uncle Red Dragon.
Every time Honglong saw this little girl, he was reminded of Da Niu.
So every time Parly came, he would happily treat this simple and lovely little girl to delicious food and drinks, which would ease his irritable mood a little.
However, when he sees Pali, he often thinks that if he hadn't lost his memory and had returned home safely, Da Niu would probably be just as cute as Pali.
Forget it... let's not dwell on the past.
But at this moment, the last thing the Red Dragon wanted to hear was Pali's voice.
His expression was very flustered, and he hurriedly tried to signal to the group of doctors with his eyes.
The doctors also wisely lined up to block Lucas's body.
Honglong took a deep breath before managing to force a smile onto his face.
He gritted his teeth, braced his weak legs, walked to Pali, squatted down, and patted her head.
"Thank you, Little Pear. I really like the candy you gave me."
Pali looked at Uncle Red Dragon's face with some confusion, her tone very innocent.
"Uncle Red Dragon, why is your face so pale?"
"Uncle Red Dragon, your forehead is covered in sweat."
"And you were shaking all over."
Why are there so many doctors behind you?
Red Dragon felt a chill run down his spine from the barrage of questions.
Just as he was about to make up an excuse, Parri stared sharply into his eyes and slowly spoke.
"Oh, I see, Uncle Red Dragon, you're hiding something from me."
Upon hearing this, Honglong's entire old face instantly turned red.
He immediately tried to explain, but the more he tried, the more he stammered, and the more he tried to explain, the worse it got.
"No... I... I... I'm not hiding anything from you... Haha... It's a bit hot... I called some doctors and had them fan me with their white coats..."
This explanation only made him sweat more, and one bead of sweat even slipped down his cheek at an inopportune moment.
Pali frowned and stared intently at the red dragon's constantly moving eyes; he seemed very suspicious.
After a long while, she suddenly said something.
"I know what you've been hiding from me."
As soon as Pali said those words, Honglong's heart skipped a beat.
After a long silence, he could only sigh in the end.
"Okay, actually I..."
"Actually, you've been too tired lately and haven't been feeling well, so you called a few doctors to take a look at you. You didn't want me to worry, so you deliberately kept it from me, right?"
Pali said these words angrily.
The truth that Honglong was about to say was immediately changed, and he changed his tune.
"Haha...right, right, you figured it out. Actually, I'm sick, and I didn't want you to worry, so..."
A warm embrace rushed towards the red dragon.
