Chapter 511 [(*^▽^*)]
As expected, Lin Leyou burned the tip of his fingernail, emitting a wisp of gray smoke, but it healed quickly. He blinked in surprise, thinking, "This prop is pretty good!"
It's at least a purple-grade item, and it might even be a gold-grade item. After all, it can even defend against vengeful ghosts. Even if it's a purple-grade item, it's the best among purple-grade items. He wants to see it now.
Lin Leyou would occasionally appear in front of him, drifting past his line of sight before disappearing again, thus testing his nerves.
Time passed slowly, and even Xue Rui, having killed the two players over there, arrived here and saw that this player was still alive and was even slowly moving towards the village.
Lin Leyou was playing, so he leaned closer and asked, "Little You?"
Lin Leyou nodded, "Here he is. Look at what he's holding in his hand."
Xue Rui had also seen the golden stone in Xue Qian's hand, so when he saw the stone in this person's hand, he immediately thought of Xue Qian.
"Is this person related to him?"
Lin Leyou shook his head, "I don't know. Maybe I just went through the same dungeon and got similar items. I just want to see if you can help me snatch the items."
Xue Rui also wanted to see, "No problem."
Then he thought of something, "But we probably can't touch this prop."
Lin Leyou said, "It's okay, I'm just taking a look. After all, we can't take this prop with us. The backpack can't be opened, so we can't take it out or put it in."
Xue Rui: "Yeah, let's take a look."
His thoughts were the same as Lin Leyou's: since they couldn't take the item with them, they would give it to Guo Xia, the player he knew best among all the players.
Hopefully, he lost 300,000 points, but gained this item, so it's still a huge win.
Xue Rui did not reveal himself, since all the players and villagers now believed that Fu Qingqiu had returned as a vengeful ghost, and the villagers had probably long forgotten the Zhong Wuyan he was playing.
Even Zhong Wuyan's house has disappeared and turned into fields, not to mention Zhong Wuyan himself, who was sent to the Temple of the Evil God ten years ago. It's truly pathetic.
Lin Leyou kept circling around him, which was actually quite fun, but business was more important.
Unless the player has an item that allows him to teleport instantly to a player-owned safe house in the village, he really shouldn't expect to leave alive.
Xue Rui looked at the pitch-black sky. Although it was completely dark, everything was clearly visible to the vengeful ghost. "Xiao You, judging from the time, the village chief might sneak away. I'll go check it out."
Lin Leyou waved his hand, "Go ahead, it'll be good to keep an eye on things, but you can rest assured that he will never leave."
Xue Rui: "Okay."
This golden stone item is very powerful. Lin Leyou hasn't found a way to kill him and keep the item yet. Since that's the case, Xue Rui can go see the village chief first, while he can stay here and slowly wear him down.
After Xue Rui left, Lin Leyou stared at the player, then waved his hand, and the surrounding ghostly energy began to swirl and churn wildly. To the player, it looked like a strong gust of cold wind, so strong that he couldn't open his eyes.
He felt even colder, his hands gripping the props were trembling uncontrollably, and his whole body was shaking. But he was helpless. Although he could exchange for a spatial teleportation item to leave this place, that item was only for short-distance teleportation, probably something that could get him out of a ghost wall or a dangerous place.
He had already used one of the consumable items to escape the ghost wall, which cost several thousand each. Although he could still use it now, he would probably have to use several more to break out of the ghost's perception range, which would cost him tens of thousands of points!
This is just the beginning and tens of thousands of points have already been used up. How can this be allowed? No matter how many points he has, he can't afford such extravagant spending!
After exchanging for the speed potion and consuming it, he gripped the life-saving item tightly in his hand and rushed towards the village. Seeing his departing figure, Lin Leyou's lips curled into a smile.
This player must be so frozen they didn't even realize they were going the wrong way!
He wasn't in a hurry, and just floated slowly behind, following him back to the Mountain God Temple. When the player saw the Mountain God Temple in front of him, his face was full of disbelief.
He stood outside the gate and could even see the four players lying in front of the mountain god statue. The necks of three of them, who had come with him earlier, were twisted to an unbelievable degree, clearly indicating that they had died from broken necks. As for the remaining one...
He saw a bloody hole where the other person's heart should have been; the person had died from having their heart ripped out. However, he didn't see the heart; instead, he saw a pile of mangled flesh on the ground. Had it been crushed?
He swallowed hard, not daring to linger any longer. While the speed potion was still in effect, he immediately rushed towards the village again. This time, he found the right direction and was absolutely certain he wouldn't go wrong!
Moreover, the illusion of being trapped in a maze has disappeared, so he won't... he won't be fooled anymore!
But he had only run a short distance when he saw a figure appear at the end of the path ahead. The figure was standing there with his back to him, wearing a white shirt, sweatpants, and sneakers!
“Fu Qingqiu…”
Lin Leyou turned around and looked at him with a smile, but still didn't say anything. He just smiled at him and then disappeared. No matter how scared the player was, he could only continue to walk forward. Only by following this road could he return to the village.
He's the only player left here now, he needs to get out of here as soon as possible!
After returning to the village, Xue Rui went straight to the village chief's house. He was floating in the air and saw through the window that the village chief was still sitting in the bedroom, looking conflicted and probably still hesitant.
He would occasionally press his ear against the door to listen to the sounds outside, to see if the rest of the family had gone to sleep.
The village chief closed the door with a solemn expression. He had just heard some noises, and his family was still awake. He couldn't leave now, so he took out the small red box that he had put in his pocket earlier.
This item is crucial to his ability to leave Haitang Village; he cannot afford to lose it!
Xue Rui stared at him quietly, while waiting for Lin Leyou to come over. He wondered if things would go smoothly on Lin Leyou's end. As for that prop... if it was possible, he wanted to give it to Guo Xia. He would mention it to her later.
I imagine... Lin Leyou wouldn't refuse, since none of them could take them with them.
Lin Leyou's situation was indeed quite smooth. Although he couldn't use his own props, he could still use his talent. He could use the talent of the vengeful ghost Fu Qingqiu to extract souls.
In this way, players shouldn't have time to retrieve their items when they die in the dungeon. However, there is still some risk involved, since players who have reached this point have already done some research on how to solve the problem of not being able to retrieve their items when they die in the dungeon.
Lin Leyou had to kill him immediately, so that he wouldn't have time to react.
The Soul Extraction talent has a 24-hour cooldown. Fortunately, the vengeful ghosts can kill people not only with the head talent, otherwise, with my Soul Extraction talent, how long would it take to kill one person a day?
Just when the player thought his items could keep the vengeful ghost away, and the ghost hadn't appeared for a while, perhaps giving up and leaving, and he was diligently making his way to the village...
Lin Leyou appeared silently behind him. The player felt a sudden chill behind him. He was convinced of the item in his hand and subconsciously turned around to look.
Then he saw a ghost face appear less than ten centimeters away from him. Lin Leyou noticed that the ghost's eyes were unfocused because he was so scared. Perfect, this is the moment!
Soul Extraction Talent!
This talent takes less than a second to activate; the player's soul is extracted from him, and as his body falls to the ground, the golden stone he was holding rolls out of his hand.
Lin Leyou tried to touch it, but just like before, half of her sharp fingernail was burned off again, and a plume of gray smoke rose into the air. "I knew I shouldn't touch it."
How do I get this to Guo Xia? I can't reveal that I know Guo Xia, so I have to get Xue Rui involved and have him deliver this to Guo Xia.
Since we can't move it, let's leave it here. I think Guo Xia will definitely come to the Evil God Temple in person. When he comes, we'll arrange for him to be in this position so that he can discover the item himself.
I don't know what Xue Rui was thinking.
After memorizing the location, Lin Leyou was about to leave when he noticed something amiss: the soul of the player he had extracted was still there!
He stared wide-eyed at the player's soul, only to find it dull and lifeless, devoid of any independent consciousness. So this was...
He tried to control it, and then he discovered that the souls extracted by his talent could actually become his ghost puppets!
Lin Leyou nodded repeatedly, "In that case, come with me."
He flew away quickly with the puppet and arrived at the village. When he found Xue Rui, Xue Rui was still waiting outside the village chief's house.
Xue Rui turned around and his gaze fell on the ghost behind him. "Is this... the player from earlier?"
Lin Leyou nodded, "Yes, I used the talent Soul Extraction. I didn't expect that although the player died, his soul remained and became my puppet subordinate."
Xue Rui: "Not bad, he's a good helper."
Lin Leyou was about to say something when he noticed that the village chief's door had opened.
"They're out now?"
Xue Rui: "He's the village chief."
Lin Leyou said, "Let's go, keep up. We agreed to hang the village chief on the big tree at the village entrance tonight!"
The village chief carried a black backpack that was more than half his height on his back. He was hunched over and acting suspiciously. After opening the door, he looked around as if he was checking if anyone was around his house.
Of course, he was also holding something in his hand.
Xue Rui: "He had a small red box, about the size of a palm. This is what's inside—a jade pendant. Do you want to try it out and see what happens?"
