Infinite: I'm Just an Ordinary Person

Lin Feng was invited into a slightly different infinite space. "People in the quest world actually know my identity?" In the Dungeon world, he traded for the Hand of Devil using his name wi...

Chapter 20 Old Building

The female student suddenly laughed, her greedy eyes falling on the man in the suit, as if looking at some beloved toy, scrutinizing him up and down repeatedly.

The man in the suit turned his head away, pretending not to see, and continued the previous topic: "Nightmare Space will not allow a large number of participants to stand in the same team, which would reduce the difficulty out of thin air, so those 7 people must have been divided into another team."

“Normally, their mission is the opposite of ours, but the fact that they were targeted by the ghosts at the beginning likely indicates that the ghosts’ mission posed a threat to us.”

The man in the suit glanced at Lin Feng and the old man, then slowly said, "But now I'm more interested in how they managed to connect with the ghosts!"

kindness?

Lin Feng was very interested.

After scanning the area, Xi Zhuannan noticed the change in Lin Feng's expression and added, "I suspect they have tokens of ghosts, or have made a contract with ghosts related to this place."

"That's why they won't stay with us." The little boy spat out a mouthful of saliva, rubbed his eerie silk on the ground with his shoe, and then squatted down to try to reach out and touch the strange silk.

"Cough cough..." The old man coughed, covering his mouth, and took a long breath before saying, "If I were... that ghost, and knew about the participants, I would definitely..."

What will definitely happen?

Just as the old man was about to utter the key words, a piercing electric current emanated from the bus stop, and a puff of white smoke drifted towards the grayish-white hands emerging from the station sign.

Before Lin Feng could continue watching, he felt a chill run down his spine, as if something had entered his body, frozen his blood, and was reaching for his heart.

Thump! The demonic power within his heart throbbed silently, expelling the chilling aura that had invaded, and a demonic hand immediately reached out to grab it.

Two gray human hands emerged from his body, like an incongruous patch of color in the darkness. After being scratched by the demon's hand, they quickly disappeared into the darkness.

"ghost"

At this moment, the others were also attacked. The man in the suit burst out with red flames; the little boy bit off the ghost hand; the blade in the woman in the combat uniform was surrounded by a few scattered flames; and the schoolgirl stood firmly in place without moving.

"Heh, they'll definitely test our strength!" The old man continued, a hint of worry in his voice.

"You old codger, you're pretty good." The little boy's livid face faded, and he chuckled coldly. He then looked at Lin Feng and said, "This brother is not bad either."

The man in the suit and the woman in the combat uniform gave them an approving look. Regarding the attack just now, it wasn't just the enemy who wanted to test their strength; they also wanted to see clearly whether the people in their team were cats or mice.

The old man coughed and chuckled, then hunched over and sat down again at the bus stop, looking at Lin Feng with amusement.

The young man's methods are interesting, like something from the Western world.

Lin Feng got up from the ground, brushed the dirt off his clothes, and his expression was neither good nor bad. He had witnessed the whole scene. Everyone's abilities were different, and in that respect, they were indeed good teammates for this mission.

"I was on the ghost that just attacked us..." the man in the suit said again, his gaze meeting the schoolgirl's unintentionally, and then he looked very awkward.

The ghost that attacked the schoolgirl was devoured by the ghostly figure inside her before it could even make a move, and the other party's aggressive gaze also seemed to be devouring the man in the suit.

"A trace was left behind, inside that building ahead."

The man in the suit pointed to an old building on the street. The streetlights illuminated the black marks left on the building's walls by years of rain. As figures flashed past behind several rusty windows, the building gave the impression of being caught between life and death.

Swish.

The trees outside the building rustled as Lin Feng looked at each house, finally fixing his gaze on the only windows on the fourth floor that were not lit.

"Hey, do you want to go and find out what's going on right now?" the little boy asked the man in the suit, who nodded.

The little boy spat on the ground and shook his head viciously: "Whoever wants to go can go, but I'm not going."

But he quickly realized he had been too absolute and added, "My abilities are not suited for reconnaissance."

The old man exhaled a long puff of smoke, squinted his eyes, and said leisurely, "I can go, but... I'm scared to go alone, I need someone to come with me."

The student laughed a few more times. She hadn't said anything until she suddenly turned to look at Lin Feng, her smile widening.

Clearly, this is yet another targeted choice, and one that cannot be avoided.

However, this coincided with Lin Feng's thoughts. The strange silk also drifted towards that house, and it was necessary to investigate. Besides... if these people were sent, the result might not be favorable to him.

"Brother, how capable are you?" The man in the suit rubbed the ring on his hand and just took out a jade Buddha pendant that glowed with fluorescence when Lin Feng replied, "I can lend it to you."

The old man chuckled, immediately stood up, took a puff of his cigarette, and blew on Lin Feng while laughing, "Young people these days are really good, unlike some guys..."

The woman in combat uniform, who had been silent all along, immediately changed her expression. The man in the suit raised his hand to block her, then took two steps forward and stuffed the jade Buddha pendant into Lin Feng's hand.

"This pendant has been blessed and can ward off attacks from ghosts."

"Hmm." Lin Feng didn't stand on ceremony. After taking it, he examined it carefully in his palm. It seemed to be a Bodhisattva, but he didn't recognize it. The Bodhisattva was holding a vajra, and there were no hints from the nightmare space.

The old man who had gone ahead waved his hand: "Hurry up, this old man is in a hurry to die."

Hearing the commotion behind him, Lin Feng quickly caught up with the old man and they walked together toward the building that was in the same direction as the strange silk that had floated up.

"Hehe, kid, you seem pretty dull. Is this your first mission?" The old man lowered his head, his steps were slow but steady, and the cigarette in his hand had disappeared again.

Lin Feng withdrew his gaze from the old building, glanced at the old man, and replied, "Yes."

"You're quite honest, kid. Those three didn't dare mess with Ghost Shadow's people, so they set their sights on us. I bet they're the three who forcibly broke into the mission."

"People who usually break into missions are small groups, while Ghost Shadows are everywhere in all kinds of supernatural missions. I won't say much about the kid who ran away, and as for you... I don't think you're the old man."

As the old man spoke, he straightened his back and twisted, then looked back at the three people behind him, revealing a fake smile, and cursed without moving his lips: "What a damn bastard, wanting to have a say without putting in any effort. If you stay, who knows when you'll be sold out."

Lin Feng couldn't help but smile; this old man was quite interesting.

Seeing the three men's fake smiles, the old man sneered, turned around, and continued, "Don't blame me for not warning you, eight people were sent in at once, and all of them were forced, so they were probably all together."

"I've heard that some people deliberately sign special contracts, making them more difficult, and taking advantage of everyone."

Lin Feng slowed his pace; he truly hadn't expected there to be so many intricacies involved.

"Alright, that's all I have to say. The rest depends on whether you can get out of here alive."

As they talked, they arrived at the old building. The stairwell was covered with various children's chalk drawings, and some odds and ends and broken boxes were piled up in the corner. But as they looked inside, the motion-sensor light that had just turned on revealed the walls inside, which were covered with red 401 drawings.

Such intense resentment!

Just looking at those messy characters made one break out in a cold sweat, and Lin Feng stopped in his tracks as he stepped onto the stairs.

The jade Buddha in his hand lit up, and suddenly the door of the house on the left side of the first floor opened, and a meaty aroma wafted into their noses along the stairs.
