Li Mo held the thermometer tightly in his hand. The temperature of the thermometer was almost below zero, but there was still no sign of a ghost around.
Instead, the ceiling was covered with densely packed small spiders, weaving white spider webs.
At the corner of the corridor entrance, the shadow of the spider web on the ceiling is a strange human leg with no toes and the tip like a sharp sickle, stepping on the shadow of the spider web.
"Just sit by the door."
Li Mo ordered, letting the injured Kanagawa Qimeng sit at the door.
"Okay, since I can't live if you die anyway, I want to avoid being left alone."
Kanagawa Qimeng was very smart and guessed Li Mo's idea immediately. Then she rolled and crawled, wriggling to the door in a dark and twisted way. She adjusted her posture and leaned against the door, quietly watching how Li Mo dealt with the strange things in the boundless darkness.
"It didn't display any other superfluous abilities when I was rescuing you, especially when we were avoiding the shadows it created."
"This house is huge. It would take a long time for it to weave a shadow large enough to cover the entire first floor, but it's not difficult. I've been waiting for it for so long, but I haven't seen it do it yet."
"That means if we're not alone, it can't directly cast its shadow beneath us. It can only extend it bit by bit, as it does now. It can't even attack those who are alone."
Li Mo took out a strange pistol and fired two shots at the densely packed spiders on the ceiling after a while.
The bluish-purple flames burned fiercely as if they had found firewood, burning up the spider webs that had extended into the corridor.
One shot can only burn the small spiders to death, and two shots can clear the spider webs.
"Your shooting skills are terrible. Fortunately, you don't need to hit accurately. A random shot can produce the effect of an incendiary bomb."
Kanagawa Qimeng couldn't help but complain when she saw Li Mo's awkward shooting skills.
"It's all the same." Li Mo replied.
"Since the gun in your hand can stop the spread of shadows, it seems that we should be safe today. We just need to wait until the minister relights the candles... Hey, watch your step!"
Kanagawa Qimeng shouted loudly, and Li Mo immediately lowered his head.
A pair of pale, withered hands stretched out from the darkness beneath his feet, their fingers digging into the flesh of Li Mo's ankles and grabbing hold of his leg bones.
Before Li Mo could shoot, the corpse's hand suddenly pulled him, causing him to lose his balance and hit the ground with his back.
The strange pistol fell to the ground.
"Can't get up?"
Li Mo found that he had lost the ability to get up, so he could only turn around and grab the ground with both hands, trying to break free from the restraints of the corpse's hands.
This was undoubtedly what had tripped him up earlier.
Ghost? Or a derivative?
Is this what makes me unable to resist?
The body was pulled out of the corridor little by little, at the moment when Li Mo was about to leave the corridor.
Another drop of sticky black blood fell on Kanagawa Qimeng's head.
Before Li Mo raised his head, Kanagawa Qimeng knelt on one knee on the ground, holding a strange pistol, fired a shot, accurately hitting the corpse's hand that was holding Li Mo's ankle.
"If you're a noob, just practice more." Kanagawa Qimeng wiped her nose with her thumb and looked at Li Mo with great pride.
With its white neck raised, it looks like a proud swan.
"..."
Having lost control of the corpse hand, Li Mo immediately pulled himself away and returned to the corridor.
"Thanks……"
Before Li Mo could finish saying "thank you", a humanoid spider fell from the ceiling, four of its legs entangled in the shadow spider web, and the other four legs easily pierced through Kanagawa Qimeng's head and body.
The deformed teeth opened and closed, and in an instant, it swallowed most of the prey's head, leaving only a shaky body, which fell to the ground with a "thump".
He held the strange pistol tightly in his hand and did not let go even when he collapsed to the ground.
Li Mo's pupils contracted, and he immediately punched the wall opposite the corridor room.
After dying once, his recovery ability was not strong. After a series of brutal punches, he finally smashed open the tiny crack in the wall. Countless spiders suddenly jumped out and swallowed Li Mo in an instant.
"I see……"
Li Mo suddenly understood. When he and Kanagawa Qimeng were still discussing countermeasures in the room, the ghost let the little spider enter the cracks in the wall and weave a spider web in the narrow and dark cracks.
In this way, when a living person walks out of the room, you won't be alert.
Because you can only see the little spider weaving its web at the entrance of the corridor.
The hands were smashed into a bloody mess and their appearance was unrecognizable. Only the white bones were exposed, covered in bright red blood.
He should have thought of this earlier, why didn't he see the humanoid spider appear between the corridor and the hall?
His entire body was covered in spider silk. Li Mo knew that his death was approaching, so in the last bit of time, he came out to the corridor.
A humanoid spider leg was found hanging in the corner of the corridor entrance, covered with spider silk.
This ghost had been on the ceiling at the door from the beginning, and deliberately used one foot to attract their attention, allowing Li Mo to focus all his attention on the ceiling near the corner.
He didn't notice at all that after he walked out of the room, the humanoid spider above his head, with eight legs attached to the roof, had a weird smile on its face, and stared at him motionlessly.
Wait for the perfect opportunity.
When Li Mo was dragged out of the corridor by the corpse hand that suddenly appeared under his feet, Kanagawa Qimeng behind him triggered the "left alone" rule, was targeted by the humanoid spider, and then died tragically.
After Kanagawa Qimeng died, Li Mo was the only one left in the corridor. The "alone" rule started again, and this ghost could kill people again.
Li Mo turned around and looked outside the door again. The candles on the wall had rekindled.
Is it safe?
The faint light of the candle brought Li Mo some warmth.
However, hope soon fades.
"The ghost is inside me..."
Li Mo picked up the strange pistol and pulled the trigger on his forehead without hesitation. Even if the candle had rekindled, he would be safe as long as he hid in the room.
After Li Mo shot himself, his body leaned forward and fell straight to the ground.
The next second, the head was squeezed, and the arthropod's sharp teeth pierced deep into the brain near both temples.
The shadow of the spider web covered Li Mo's body, and a huge humanoid spider broke out of his body, dividing Li Mo's body into countless blood clots.
Every piece of flesh was tightly wrapped in spider webs, the blood inside was still flowing, the broken heart was still beating, the alveoli were opening and closing, and even the eyeballs were still looking around, without losing focus.
It seems that each part of the body is not dead, but survives separately.
The humanoid spider ate the pieces of the corpse one by one with great satisfaction. Its body gradually changed, with the hair of the supernatural department member, as well as Li Mo's heart and alveoli. One eyeball was ordinary, one was slightly turbid, and there were four other bizarre eyeballs.
The strange gazes suddenly focused on the room at the deepest end of the corridor. The strange pistol on the ground was picked up with the hands of a grown man, and then the notebook was taken out from his clothes.
It gained Li Mo's wisdom and thinking.
In an instant, everything stopped, the clock on the phone began to run backwards, and time and space went back——
"Your shooting skills are terrible. Fortunately, you don't need to hit accurately. A random shot can produce the effect of an incendiary bomb."
Kanagawa Qimeng couldn't help but complain when she saw Li Mo's awkward shooting skills.
"Hey, you look...why do you look a lot worse than before? You're so pale, like you're dying."
"But if that gun in your hand can block the shadows, then it seems we should be safe today. We just have to wait until the minister relights the candles... Hey, be careful...!"
Without waiting for Kanagawa Qimeng to finish speaking, Li Mo immediately fired a shot at the corpse hand that had just emerged from under his feet. The blue-purple netherworld fire quickly engulfed the dry palm.
Burning along with the shadow beneath it.
"Kanagawa, don't look up, look at me..."
Li Mo's eyes were fixed on the black blood above Kanagawa's head, and he walked towards her slowly, step by step.
"What are you doing? Looking up? What the hell is that on your head? I want to see..."
"Wait, you mean..."
Kanagawa Qimeng tensed her body and suppressed her inner curiosity.
There might really be something ghost on her head.
Kanagawa Qimeng suddenly felt cold all over. When she thought of the horrible and disgusting humanoid spider right above her head that might pounce on her at any time, she wanted to hide in the house immediately.
But she couldn't do that. Once she entered the house, Li Mo outside the corridor would be left alone.
When the cunning rabbit dies, the hunting dog is cooked. If one dies, the other cannot survive.
She had to keep this guy alive.
"If you're scared, just close your eyes and you'll be fine."
Li Mo said with his head down, and found himself in the shadow of the humanoid spider.
As expected, a shriveled and skinny corpse hand emerged from the ground again. Li Mo recognized that it was a female limb from the size and shape of the bones.
The incomplete clothes above were probably what the person pretending to be a ghost wore when he was alive.
If the humanoid spider ate the man and hid the living limbs in the shadows, then there must be more such corpse hands.
Before the restart, and even now, I only see a dead hand.
This ghost... did a lot of preparation.
Li Mo's eyes darkened. Dealing with ghosts that followed a single rule was a very dangerous thing, but what was even more dangerous was dealing with ghosts that possessed human consciousness, especially those that completely seized human consciousness.
Like a human, he can cheat, pretend, disguise, show weakness, and intimidate...
Li Mo still can't determine what the real pattern of this spider is.
It hid so well that Li Mo didn't even dare to confirm the fact that it would only attack when it was "alone".
Perhaps it was precisely because it was reluctant to attack that Li Mo mistakenly believed that it only attacked people who were alone, so he played it long and caught a big fish.
Li Mo thinks very quickly and a lot.
After dying twice, he thought faster and in more detail than before the restart.
"It's okay, just wait for me to come over slowly. I'll throw the pistol to you, and you can use it to shoot the spider web woven by the spider behind me."
Li Mo spoke very frankly, but when he spoke, his eyes did not meet Kanagawa Qimeng's, but he looked sideways behind him.
Kanagawa Qimen nodded and stretched out her hand to take the strange pistol.
Sure enough, Li Mo noticed that the little spider was weaving its web faster.
If an ordinary person were to judge, they would probably think that the humanoid spider was scared, afraid that Li Mo would lose his ability to attack after getting close to Kanagawa Qimeng, and the two of them worked together to destroy the spider web that kept extending behind them.
But Li Mo knew that the humanoid spider was deliberately driving the little spider to speed up the web weaving so that he would misunderstand and throw out the strange pistol in a hurry.
It seems that the strange pistol is not ineffective against it, but it must reveal its true form when it attacks in order to hit it.
In the process of throwing the gun, it revealed its true form and attacked, and Li Mo and Kanagawa Qimeng had no way to fight back.
"Ah……"
If everything is as he guessed, then this spider doesn't need to be alone to attack living people. It just deliberately disguises itself as being able to attack only those who are alone.
One of the corpse's hands had been suppressed by the Nether Fire, but the Nether Fire had already disappeared.
So the spider must have thought that it expected only one such dead hand, and didn't expect there would be more.
Li Mo had a blank expression on his face and stopped less than half a meter away from Kanagawa Kimu.
The little spider behind him was almost crawling to Li Mo's head, and the spider web almost covered the entire entrance to the corridor.
"Kanagawa, your spearmanship is very good, I'm sure you won't hit me."
Li Mo said something incomprehensible.
Before the restart, Kanagawa Yume's marksmanship really amazed him. Every shot hit the target, and she could shoot instantly without even aiming.
"Of course, my dynamic vision is comparable to that of professional CS:GO players."
Kanagawa Kimu felt a little confused, his expression and the lines he spoke didn't seem to match.
His expression was chillingly cold, but his lines seemed to be flattering her.
Do not……
There's a ghost staring at me overhead, how could he suddenly say this to me?
Kanagawa Qimeng was puzzled, but she vaguely understood something. An unexpected event might happen next, requiring her to make an immediate judgment and shoot.
