Chapter 78: Encountering a Strong Enemy, Mixed Joys and Sorrows
Fan Xiaoqing burst into tears and collapsed.
Shen Zhiyi helped her outside and said, "There's still a chance. As long as I can break her spell within three days, you can survive."
"But I'm like this now, I..."
"Xiaoqing, don't be afraid!" Shen Zhiyi's eyes were firm. "Believe me, since I can rescue you from the coffin, I can completely revive you. You don't need to do anything, just believe me, okay?"
All the fear suddenly froze when facing Shen Zhiyi's eyes.
Fan Xiaoqing nodded while crying.
After comforting her, Shen Zhiyi set up a magic circle in the room and waited for the opportunity.
Since Fan Xiaoqing is here, the other party will definitely come and take her away.
The night is getting darker.
Shen Zhiyi sat cross-legged in the magic circle in the middle of the living room. When the window was blown open by the night wind, she opened her eyes.
The doorbell rang.
Shen Zhiyi raised her eyes and did not speak, but her lips moved and a series of tight spells came out of her mouth.
A golden magic circle faintly appeared on the floor.
The person outside just pressed the doorbell once and then left it alone. There was a sound of a card swiping outside, and then the door opened.
As soon as the door opened, I saw a room attendant blocking the doorway, his face was dark and his expression could not be seen clearly.
"Clean the room." She uttered a few words, like a mechanical puppet, lifeless.
Before he could finish his words, a broom came viciously towards Shen Zhiyi’s face.
Although the waiter's eyes were out of focus, his aim was perfectly accurate, and the broom he threw flew straight towards Shen Zhiyi's face.
Just as it was about to hit the broom, at the last moment, it fell strangely, as if it had hit some barrier.
The "barrier" was just five inches away from Shen Zhiyi.
The waiter's face was pale and expressionless. Seeing that his move failed, he turned around and took out a machete from the cart, took mechanical steps, and approached Shen Zhiyi step by step.
However, Shen Zhiyi remained motionless as a mountain, with his thumbs, index fingers, and middle fingers pressed together, chanting a spell to activate the magic circle.
As the waiter stepped into the formation, he immediately let out a scream, and his feet made a sizzling sound like stepping on a frying pan. He was flung away by a huge force, and his back slammed against the wall, and he fainted instantly.
The next second, a wisp of black air rushed out of her body and quickly fled towards the exit.
Taking advantage of this moment, Shen Zhiyi threw out a tracking talisman and attached it to the black shadow.
But soon, the black shadow turned into ashes amid screams!
Her talisman turned around dejectedly and fell into her palm.
The moonlight spreads, and the surroundings return to peace and tranquility.
Shen Zhiyi stood up and stared at the direction where the black shadow fled. The mountain over there looked like a person lying on his back in the hazy night. The grass and trees growing abruptly on the top of the mountain looked like the fangs of a beauty, inexplicably strange.
That's the restricted area.
After thinking for a few seconds, she returned to the room and closed the door.
Fan Xiaoqing's weak voice came, asking what happened.
"It's okay." She walked in and pulled the quilt over her. "Have a good rest."
Fan Xiaoqing grabbed her hand and said, "I just felt it. She's here, right?"
"It's not her." Shen Zhiyi shook his head, "It's her ghost servant."
"Ghost servant?" Fan Xiaoqing was stunned, his pupils constricted in fear.
"Well, I should have expected that she wouldn't show up so easily. Someone like her who can raise a ghost servant, and it seems she has more than one, must be as skilled as me."
Fan Xiaoqing was nervous: "Am I dead then?"
"Don't worry, even if we die together, I will take your life back from her." Shen Zhiyi said firmly.
But as soon as she said this, she regretted it.
She is now in the same boat with Xiao Lanting, their lives are linked together. If she doesn't live for herself, she must also think about him.
So, she must not die.
She took out her phone and scanned the target.
The result is similar to the original one. The other party has set up a barrier, so it cannot be scanned.
The APP suddenly flashed a warm reminder: A person of the same type as the owner was detected, but of a higher level than the owner. It is recommended to leave immediately to avoid disputes and unnecessary losses.
Shen Zhiyi was shocked and it took him a long time to recover from this reminder.
After a while, her breathing became normal again, and she felt half happy and half worried.
What worries her is that the other party is more advanced than her, has rich experience, and is a senior.
The good news is that once she successfully defeats the opponent, she can absorb all of the opponent's achievements, which means that she can be reborn successfully!
At that time, there will be no need to rely on collecting souls to prolong life and live in fear.
Before taking on this task, she had heard of this saying, but she had heard that this situation was very rare. Unexpectedly, she was so lucky to actually encounter it.
Like her, the other person also relied on collecting souls to prolong her life. Judging from the current situation, she may no longer have to worry about her lifespan, as she has developed soul collection into a business.
After analyzing this, her mood sank even more.
With such a strong opponent, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky to snatch the person from her.
Her mind went blank, she paused for a second, and suddenly realized that her palm was empty.
I turned my head and was shocked by the scene in front of me.
Fan Xiaoqing's face returned to normal. She was playing with her mobile phone in her hand and smiling, but her eyes were strange, as if she had no soul.
Suddenly, she turned the camera on her.
"Live broadcast, live broadcast!"
"Live broadcast?" Shen Zhiyi frowned and reached out to grab the phone, but she dodged it.
Fan Xiaoqing was lifted up by a force like a puppet and jumped onto the bed, avoiding her hand.
The camera is always focused on Shen Zhiyi.
Shen Zhiyi had no choice but to take out her spare phone to check, and sure enough, she found that her account was live streaming.
Fans came out in droves.
[Huh? Live broadcast? Am I seeing things? It's so sudden, and there's no warning?]
What's the theme this time? Hotel exploration or storytelling?
[Wow! I'm in this hotel right now! Oh my god! I'm actually staying in the same hotel as Dai Yi!]
[Isn't this the Bailingshan Hotel? What kind of adventures can there be?]
[The hotel doesn't have one, but there is one in the restricted area next door. I heard seven tourists, all university students, went missing there today. The police are still searching.]
[Is Daiyi taking us to the front lines? Excited!]
More and more people came, and in less than five minutes, eight thousand people had entered.
Shen Zhiyi could only bite the bullet and say a few words.
"Good evening everyone, how was your National Day? Did you all go out and have fun?"
"Hey, this time, Daiyi wants to show you something a little different. I wrote the script and added some novel elements and professional actors. So no matter what you see, it's all a play. Please don't take it seriously. The plot may be exciting or boring. It all depends on how the actors who play with me handle it."
[Huh? A transformation? A holographic adventure game?]
It feels a bit like that. Perhaps the regulations for outdoor live broadcasts have tightened recently, forcing Daiyi to make some changes. This is also good. It sounds interesting. I'll just treat it like a variety show.
[The doorbell rang. Is the story about to begin? ]
Shen Zhiyi heard the bell, glanced at Fan Xiaoqing, and turned to walk out.
It should be Shen Zhixian who has arrived.
