But fortunately, not long after, the fire not far away slowly approached, accompanied by some panting sounds, breaking the current atmosphere.

"Ms. Haitoki, please walk slower! Huh~hu~! I haven't yet successfully absorbed the spiritual energy into my body for transformation. My physical fitness is still within the range of a normal female high school student."

Kaguya Shinomiya approached from the dark forest, holding a torch, and spoke while panting.

Hui Shi looked up and asked, "Where's Kiana?"

"behind……"

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud noise behind Shinomiya Kaguya, and then everyone saw a white-haired beautiful girl running from a distance, chasing a ghost they had seen before.

At the same time, they heard the beautiful white-haired girl yelling, "Don't run! This guy can run so fast! Ah! Huishi, hurry up and help me stop this guy!"

"immediately!"

After shouting at Kiana, Hui Shi then told Shinomiya Kaguya: "Kaguya, please help take care of this ghost head. I'll be back soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hui Shi's figure quickly disappeared.

Then there was a noisy commotion coming from Kiana's side, and the two of them had an eye-twitching conversation.

"This guy seems familiar? Is he some half-brother?"

"What weird talk are you talking about, Huishi? Hey, that's not important! This guy needs to be interrogated. He stood next to me and stared at me like a pervert. When I approached him, he ran away. When I stopped, he stopped too and continued to stare at me."

Kiana hugged her shoulders and shook them in disgust, saying, "This kind of perverted peeping ghost is disgusting just thinking about it."

"I think this is its way of scaring you. If you put yourself in the shoes of an ordinary person, think about it. A strange-looking creature, who knows whether it is human or not, keeps hovering around you in the darkness with low visibility. If you get close to it, it retreats, and if you retreat, it comes closer."

Hitting the subdued ghost's head with an axe, Hui Shi continued, "Isn't it a kind of creepy fear?"

Rolling her eyes, Kiana said, "Looking at your actions now, Huishi, I don't feel creepy at all. Actually, when I saw this guy, my first reaction wasn't to be on guard or avoid him. Instead, I wanted to catch him and beat him up. I had such an impulsive thought, Huishi, you are fully responsible!"

"What do you mean by fully responsible or not? You're the one talking nonsense, aren't you? Capturing the ghost and torturing him, isn't that the right thing to do?"

"..."

Looking at Huishi's puzzled expression, Kiana deeply felt that Huishi's way of thinking was completely unrelated to "normal".

"Pah-sha~"

At this moment, a slight sound suddenly came from the forest beside them. Huishi and Kiana turned around and found that another ghost friend appeared here.

It is short in stature and very similar to the peeping ghost that Hui Shi helped Kiana stop. It seems that they are the same species?

"Run away..."

The peeping ghost that was knocked to the ground by Hui actually stretched out his hand to warn the new ghost, with a hint of fear in his tone.

However, the new ghost friend had obviously never seen such a scene. It stood there for a while, confused and puzzled.

Run? Why run?

I again...!!!

Its doubts were not answered. The next moment, Hui Shi appeared in front of it. Then, it felt a pain in its head in surprise and then fainted.

This was the only sentence it heard before it fainted.

"It's true that we're traveling around. These ghosts come in droves, and we've gained a lot."

-

"Hello everyone, are you also players of Weird Paradise? I'm your teammate on this mission, my name is Hui Shi."

A few minutes later, the three people on Huishi's side finally met up with the other players in this mission. At the same time, Huishi took the initiative to introduce himself, breaking the silent atmosphere.

"..."

XN.

But as soon as Hui Shi finished speaking, the atmosphere fell silent again.

Except for Kiana and Kaguya Shinomiya, the other five people all looked at Hui with complicated expressions and were alert.

After a long while, Baoyue Yexiao, the youngest of the five, finally came to her senses. She said, "Hello, Sister Huishi. I'm Baoyue Yexiao."

"Oh~ hello, midnight snack sister."

"Hello, Sister Huishi, with all due respect, may I ask, are you a human or a ghost?"

"what?"

Hui Shi was suddenly stunned.

"Pfft~"

Kiana couldn't hold back her smile.

Shinomiya Kaguya almost couldn't hold back her laughter. Was this considered childish talk? She finally spoke out the doubts she had been having while watching Huishi's operation.

Seriously, who chases ghosts?

It would be fine if he was just chasing after it, but he was even as excited as a hunter finding his prey, which was a bit outrageous.

84

Chapter 84 The mission requires us to find... Never mind, it’s nothing.

"I'm a human! Not a ghost! Don't get me wrong!"

Hui Shi corrected solemnly.

But everyone seemed unable to fully accept it.

After all, there were three corpses of ghosts lying nearby.

Then, it was the youngest, Baoyue Yexiao, who took the initiative to open the topic. She asked curiously, "Sister Huishi, how do you do this? I don't see any spiritual protection on you, but you and Sister Kiana seem to be able to directly touch ghosts, although most of them have physical bodies."

"But even so, it's difficult for ordinary people to cause effective damage to physical ghosts."

Turning to look at Baoyue Night Snack.

Huishi had recognized this little loli a long time ago.

Don't look at her young age, but she is a ruthless person who collects evil spirits and monsters like Pokémon.

She would search everywhere for evil spirits and seal them inside dolls. Then she would lock up all the evil spirits that sealed the dolls together and feed them in the same way as raising poisonous insects.

The evil spirits of the Gu King cultivated in this way are called "graduates" by Yexiao. Their strength is extremely strong among evil spirits.

Or to describe it in a more Chinese way, it is the red-clothed ghost.

Of course, the specific details cannot be confirmed yet. After all, Huishi has never seen it. I can only say that you can understand it this way for now.

But one thing is absolutely certain, that is, the "graduate" evil spirits that Baoyue Yexiao controls are all extremely powerful. Even if it is not careful when using them, the trainer will fail and be attacked by these evil spirits.

In addition, while raising the Pokémon, she also did not forget to look for wild "Pokémon" everywhere, and fight against them with the "graduates" in her hands. After defeating them, if the opponent is obedient, she will subdue it, and if it is disobedient, she will kill it.

Relying on such means, she has so far mastered many terrifyingly powerful "graduate" level evil spirits.

but……

I took a look at the alien doll that Baoyue Yexiao was holding in his arms. I remember that the doll was called Taira Masakado.

Her memory told her that this evil spirit named Taira Masakado was a super late-stage evil spirit with unfathomable strength, but not enough to make Huishi feel afraid.

Moreover, judging from the aura that Hui Shi sensed now, this Taira no Masakado had obviously not yet fully developed.

What really makes Huishi curious are the trump cards that Xiao Yexiao has hidden the deepest.

0th generation student and Super Ksitigarbha.

I wonder how powerful these two evil spirits are?

"It's a little difficult to explain, but to put it simply, I'm the kind of cultivator you see in novels. I've mastered a set of training methods that grant me extraordinary powers, so I can easily control these ghosts."

Hui Shi replied.

"Practice..."

Baoyue Yexiao lowered his head and muttered some words, then looked up and said: "So it's like Onmyoji, superpowers?"

"The difference is quite significant, but now is not the right time to sit down and explain the situation. So, you can understand it for now, but don't really think of me as a Yin-Yang master or someone with super powers."

Hui Shi said.

Nodding, Baoyue Yexiao asked, "Sister Huishi, since the ghosts outside are no longer a threat to you, how is your mission progressing? How many necklace fragments have you found?"

"Mission? Necklace fragment?"

Hui Shi was stunned, with a puzzled look on his face.

Similarly, these words also made Kiana and Shinomiya Kaguya have question marks.

Kaguya Shinomiya stepped forward and asked, "Sister Yexiao, what did you mean by the mission progress and necklace fragments?"

"Eh? Sisters, don't you understand? This is the main quest of this strange paradise."

Baoyue Yexiao was also stunned like Huishi and others, and said with some confusion.

After the words were spoken, Hui Shi and the other two looked at each other.

Then Hui Shi opened the personal panel of the Strange Paradise and looked at the task interface. He found that the task was still the same as before. Except for the 12-hour countdown, there was no change.

After a moment of silence, Hui Shi said, "Could it be that you are a VIP, Xiao Ye Xiao?"

Everyone: "..."

After a moment of silence, Xiao Yexiao pulled out a letter from his pocket and said, "Sister Huishi, didn't you find the key item for the mission? Then see if this letter I got can trigger the mission update."

Take the letter.

[Ding, contact with key clue props, main quest updated. ]

The system prompt sound of the Strange Paradise suddenly sounded. Hui Shi showed a look of understanding, and then opened the task panel again.

As expected, a new text was updated on the task content interface.

[Although memories are lost, some things will be remembered forever even without memories.]

[Even if I were to become a foreign being, I would not allow this memory to be polluted.]

[It doesn't need salvation, it doesn't need sunshine, it doesn't need any pity, it just needs that necklace.]

[Find the pieces of the necklace and put them together. This is your only chance.]

【Necklace fragments found: 0/5】

Then, there was a blank line, and it was the 12-hour task countdown again.

After reading this string of updated content, Hui Shi blinked and complained: "It feels like 'I have a story'."

After saying that, Huishi opened the envelope and looked at the contents.

【To my beloved sister】

"Shua."

Not intending to read the second sentence at all, Huishi quickly closed the letter, put it away and handed it to the curious Kiana behind him.

"Where are you going? Who are you going to fight? Do you have a target?"

Huishi looked at Baoyue Night Snack and asked.

Baoyue Yexiao was stunned and didn't react at first. She replied subconsciously: "Sister Huishi, this isn't about killing monsters and dropping equipment. We are looking for..."

The voice stopped abruptly. Baoyue Yexiao looked at the ghost corpse beside her that was still not cold, shook her head and said, "Forget it, it's nothing, Sister Huishi. Because there are too many ghosts in the outside world and the other brothers and sisters are also emotional, the progress of the mission has not made much progress."

"So, because there are so many ghosts, you are so busy that you don't even have time to properly study how to complete the mission? Right?"

Hui Shi asked.

Baoyue Yexiao nodded and said, "That's about it, and also..."

Xiao Yexiao quietly glanced at the other players behind her. She was a polite child, so she just glanced and said nothing.

However, Hui Shi was not stupid. He immediately understood what Bao Yue Ye Xiao meant. He smiled and said, "I won't do anything that is too naive, but I won't be too heartless either. I will offer some help. But if someone is still ignorant and unaware after this, don't blame me for not lending a hand."

"Sister Haitoki, just go ahead and do it. It will be good for the other brothers and sisters too. After all, this is Ghost Paradise, and we can't always be teammates."

Baoyue Yexiao showed a maturity that was not what her age should have. She nodded calmly and expressed her support for Huishi.

In her setting, she is a genius with a very high IQ, and her understanding of some social practices is no worse than that of adults.

Smiling and rubbing Baoyue Yexiao's head, Huishi said: "You have been running for so long, you need to rest for a while, right? Leave it to me."
