Now that things have come to this, there is no room for retreat.
If you are cursed upon entering the village, it will be too late to leave.
Instead of wasting your time, it's better to make the most of what's in front of you.
After tidying up their accommodations, everyone waited for night to fall.
In this cold place, only the sound of everyone breathing could be heard; even the chirping of insects was absent from the grass outside.
It's like a dead land.
The nine people sat around the fire, none of them feeling sleepy.
In the shadows behind everyone, White Ghost is undergoing her final transformation.
Their features were no different from the others, but their facial expressions were more lively.
Xia Yao sat in the place furthest away from Qin Tan, watching helplessly as her white ghost walked over.
Those empty eyes were now filled with fear, just like her at that moment.
White Ghost reached out to Xia Yao, her pale skin making Xia Yao feel disgusted.
"roll!"
Xia Yao shouted fiercely.
She snapped her fingers, and a small wooden puppet jumped out of the backpack behind her.
The lifelike rag doll, about the length of a forearm, didn't need any ropes or strings to control it as it attacked the white ghost.
This is Xia Yao's ability: [Puppeteer].
The dolls she creates all possess unique abilities, like miniature versions of superhumans, and their abilities are varied.
The doll she has released now is an aggressive one.
The doll's figure is imposing, and its movements are agile.
Go around behind White Ghost and climb up her thigh.
The doll held a miniature pair of scissors in its hand and slashed at the White Ghost's neck.
With a snap, the scissors opened and closed.
Liquid seeped from the neck of the White Ghost, freezing into ice as it fell to the ground.
That wasn't blood, but a foul-smelling liquid.
With a few quick movements, the puppet scissors dealt with the newly "alive" ghost.
The White Ghost fell to the ground, its body beginning to disappear until it became nothingness.
"From this perspective, the White Ghost isn't so difficult to deal with after all."
As Ke Yuanyun spoke, she also became interested.
He walked towards his white ghost, and as the ghost looked over, he manipulated the spatial blade to cut off its head.
"Easy and easy."
Ke Yuanyun's tone was much more relaxed.
If I had known this was so easy to solve, I wouldn't have been so worried these past few days.
With these two people backing them up, the crowd wasn't so panicked.
Xi Yang was the only one who was very distressed.
He lacks combat capabilities.
Just as he was trying to get Qin Tan's help, Shen Qing pounced on him.
"careful!"
Shen Qing was still shouting that the adult male body was very heavy, and when he collided with Xi Yang, he pinned him down.
He heard the shouts of the others.
Out of the corner of her eye, she also saw Qin Tan make a move, and the white ghost head belonging to Xi Yang separated and disappeared.
He's safe now.
Xi Yang thought about pushing Shen Qing off him, but when he touched her, his palm felt damp.
He was taken aback, and only when he opened his palm did he realize that his palm was covered with a layer of red.
That was... blood.
"Get up first."
Qin Tan helped Xi Yang up, and Xi Yang looked at Shen Qing with a stiff expression.
A long wound appeared on Shen Qing's back, and through the skin and flesh, one could see the internal organs gently wriggling underneath.
Large amounts of blood soaked Shen Qing.
Xi Yang didn't understand.
How did the white ghost cause such great damage?
"They have learned to use weapons."
Bai Yucheng kicked a rusty dagger off the ground.
No one expected that the weakest member of Xiyang, White Ghost, would learn to feign attacks and even hide weapons on his person.
If it weren't for Shen Qing's help, it would have been Xi Yang himself who got hurt.
Ke Xiyang would rather get hurt herself.
"Shen Qing, aren't you a doctor? Hurry up and treat yourself!"
Xi Yang called out anxiously, pressing on Shen Qing's wound, but found that the bleeding couldn't be stopped.
"I'd like to too."
Shen Qing responded weakly.
"But my abilities are not working; there's something else in the wound that's getting in the way."
If you look closely, you can see a layer of frost around the wound.
"The curse is real."
Upon seeing this scene, Ke Yuanyun lost control and shouted.
He was clutching his hair, his eyes red.
Just a few days after leaving the Federation, the first person to run into trouble was Shen Qing from logistics.
If Shen Qing's abilities have no effect on these curses, then what will they do after losing Shen Qing?
"I'll give it a try."
"It hurts a little, bear with it."
Fan Zhi placed his flames on the wound on Shen Qing's back.
In an emergency, it is possible to use flames to cauterize the wound to forcibly stop the bleeding.
Logically speaking, fire should be able to melt ice.
But it's no use.
That layer of frost was extremely stubborn, seemingly enraged by the sun's heat, and it eroded even faster.
Before long, the frost began to spread to the rest of Shen Qing's body.
If this continues, Shen Qing will be frozen into an ice sculpture in no time.
Qin Tan squatted down beside him as well. She looked at the other person's wound, thought for a moment, and then extended her finger.
The moment her fingers touched Shen Qing, Shen Qing convulsed violently, and it looked like it was getting worse, but Qin Tan didn't let go.
Beneath her fingertips, the curse of the Blood Raven, following Qin Tan's movements, clung to his back.
The Blood Raven, who controlled the power of the curse, sent a happy expression to Qin Tan.
It was very happy.
It was devouring those curses as if they were food.
Everyone watched as Shen Qing was sobbing that he was almost fainting.
