"What is it?" The pale blue fire trembled slightly.
"Humans have invaded our castle," the pale ghost hissed.
"Then eliminate them."
The pale blue fire went out in the room.
The pale, wandering spirit rose, passed through the wall, and left.
……
The five people are on their way forward.
Before coming, I had anticipated that the indoor space would be unusually dark, so I brought a certain number of torches for An Yi to light with her "fire sword".
The castle itself is not scary, but each room retains some furniture and personal belongings, and traces of life are everywhere.
It was as if it were a constant reminder that a disaster had occurred here that caused everyone to flee in terror.
Karen used the Warrior skill point allocation, and her magic power was still her basic attribute, so her field of vision remained unchanged, only able to detect distances of a few dozen meters.
However, for indoor environments, tens of meters is already a considerable distance.
However, the most frightening thing is that despite having such a wide area of investigation, she hasn't discovered anything yet.
Ghosts aren't a big deal, but Karen still hopes that if ghosts really exist...
It's best if it comes into your field of vision.
...? !
"Whoa?!" Karen suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
The other three were startled.
"What's wrong?!" Lycorina asked.
"There's...there's someone!" Karen's heart pounded wildly, her panic making her seem unlike her usual dignified princess self.
"Someone? How could anyone be here?" Layton gripped his shield warily, his other hand against the wall.
“I don’t know… In the third room ahead, there’s someone lying on the bed…” Karen said in a low voice, “And we can’t tell his identity, his gender, or even his internal organs…!”
"!!!"
Milu huddled behind An Yi, clutching his hand, her eyes brimming with tears, on the verge of sobbing.
I...I want to go home!! 4
"Whoever he is, if he's an enemy, just cut him down with one sword," An Yi said calmly.
As they spoke, the group continued forward, but at a much slower pace.
They soon arrived at the room they had mentioned earlier; the door was closed. Lu
Can……
“I remember the door was open just now…when did it close?” Karen said, her shoulders hunched and her voice heavy.
After hearing her words, the other three people's fear deepened even further.
Even Lycorina was beginning to feel something was off.
An Yi sighed helplessly, walked to the door, and knocked symbolically.
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
Just then, a knocking sound suddenly came from the inside of the door!
"Eaaah!!"
Miluco and Karen rushed over and hugged Lycorina at the same time, and the three girls huddled together against the wall on the other side.
Layton was so startled that he fell to the ground with a thud, then grabbed the wall and stood up, exclaiming, "W-what happened?!"
“It sounds like someone is knocking on the door from inside,” Annie explained calmly.
"No...!" Karen shook her head violently, panicking, "Nobody's here! There's nobody behind the door!"
The person is still lying in bed!
“His arms are really long,” Annie said casually, then knocked on the door again.
"Dong dong dong."
"Knock, knock, knock." Another knock came from inside!
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong..."
"Ann, Annie! Stop knocking! Let's go quickly!" Lycorina urged, somewhat frightened.
“A brave man cannot desert his post,” An Yi said seriously.
"Boom boom boom!"
He pounded even harder!
"Boom boom boom!"
The other party responded strongly and forcefully!
"Boom boom boom!"
"Dong dong dong dong!"
As the knocking grew louder, the unease in the four people's hearts intensified.
The door was being knocked on so hard it started to shake, as if ghosts or monsters were about to burst out at any moment!
Meanwhile, the ghost inside the door was also puzzled.
Why are these people outside knocking on the door more and more enthusiastically?
Isn't he afraid of me?!
This human is really getting into it! Well then, I won't hold back either!
"Boom boom boom!"
“Dong dong dong dong!!”
“Dong dong dong dong dong!!”
At first, they were just tapping each other more and more, but then An Yi started tapping faster and faster.
Later, An Yi's extremely fast hand speed even left afterimages in front of the door as she banged on it repeatedly.
Conversely, the other side of the door was lagging behind.
"What's wrong with this human?! Is this a speed achievable by a human?!"
The ghosts behind the door were dumbfounded.
Not only was the ghost dumbfounded, but the four people behind it were dumbfounded too.
What on earth is he doing?
Is this a case of going against ghosts?
the most important is……
It's so noisy!!
Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.
Gradually, the knocking behind the door weakened.
It was as if the opponent knew that An Yi was a monster, and both their momentum and speed were greatly weakened.
"Thump th ...!!!!"
After An Yi finished typing for the last time, the other party remained silent.
Ghost: "I'm tired. Destroy it. I'm not hitting it anymore."
"boom!"
Suddenly, An Yi kicked the door open.
The white ghost inside was startled and instantly disappeared from the room.
An Yi just happened to see it disappear, while the others were too far away for Lu to see clearly. [四#→〉∷]
“It’s over,” Annie said to the others, then pointed to the “person” on the bed and said, “I knocked him to death.”
The four of them, somewhat confused, huddled together and looked at the bed.
By the firelight, everyone could see clearly...
There was a wooden mannequin lying on the bed!
Lycorina breathed a sigh of relief, then grinned: "Karen, so this is what you meant by... there's a person in the room without internal organs?"
"what?"
Karen reached out and touched it, feeling the texture of wood.
"But...it looks just like it! It really does!"
In her field of vision, everything was black with white lines, and she couldn't see anything too detailed.
However, given the level of detail in this mannequin, it is indeed difficult to distinguish it from a real one at first glance.
Then the problem comes...
"Why is there a mannequin here, and why is something strange knocking on the door?" Lycorina wondered.
Karen frowned slightly: "I'm afraid... the demons who occupied this castle have already noticed us."
"So, this is a warning that we should leave?" Layton realized as well.
