Chapter 171 The Lingering Ghost



Hua Lingze met Ye Wan'er once, when she first met Lin Nai.

"Isn't this the girl who was next to you before?" Hua Lingze turned her head and asked.

Linna: "Uh..."

Nightfall coldly stared at Lin Nai and Hua Lingze without saying a word. She slowly raised her slender fingers, and wisps of dark energy gathered and wrapped around them.

Seeing this, Hua Lingze knew that if she didn't fight back now, she might never have another chance!

With a loud "bang," his body transformed into countless scattered flower petals, drifting away in all directions.

Seeing this, Ye Er coldly flicked the sleeve of his robe.

Black mist came from all directions, enveloping all the flower petals.

Ultimately, under the pressure of the black energy, Hua Lingze had no choice but to reveal her true form again. She was then wrapped up and buried on the ground by the black energy, unable to move any further.

Linnaeus was speechless.

It seems that, whether in the real world or in this world, Ye'er's strength is just as outrageous...

This time, Ye'er looked at Lin Nai.

Despite her overwhelming pressure, Linnai had not completely collapsed and was still holding on with the help of a white scythe.

"You are the first outsider to withstand my pressure."

Nightfall spoke coldly, her face expressionless: "Interesting."

Linna smiled at her: "There's something even more interesting, do you want to see?"

As he spoke, Linnai's pupils suddenly turned silver-gray.

"Divine Art - Gray Eye!"

Night's expression remained calm and indifferent until Lin Nai's eyes lit up, at which point a ripple finally appeared in her perpetually still eyes.

What's this?

Night felt her own power being absorbed by him.

Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Nai angrily sprang up and summoned the Mist God.

It unleashed a white mist.

The white, misty fog quickly spread out.

Linna's figure disappeared into the mist.

When night fell and she came to her senses, Lin Nai's figure had already disappeared into the mist.

"Your Holiness, that guy escaped!"

Tang Hongshan and the others were also affected by the Gray Eyes that Lin Nai had just released, and it took them a while to recover: "Let's go after him!"

"never mind."

Nightfall raised her hand to signal them not to pursue, then pointed to Hua Lingze and Fang Wu on the ground: "Take them back and lock them up first."

Tang Hongshan and the others respectfully replied, "Yes."

......

In a dark space.

Tiger Xiong slowly opened his eyes with difficulty.

I... didn't die?

He remembered that they had been besieged by a group of demonized townspeople before.

I wanted to escape the town temporarily to avoid trouble, but I didn't expect the town to suddenly grow several times larger, and I couldn't find the exit at all.

Finally, he was captured by the group of crazed, demonized townspeople.

He opened his eyes and looked carefully at the place where he was.

It's like a shadow prison.

Besides him, several other students from the gene company were also imprisoned here, wrapped in black, cocoon-like material and tied to the wall.

"Brother Tiger, you're awake?" a voice called out.

Hu Xiong turned his head and saw that another student had also woken up.

"Hmm..." Hu Xiong grunted twice, "Where exactly is this place? It's so uncomfortable..."

"I don't know..." the student said with some worry, "Brother Tiger, those crazy townspeople captured us, why didn't they just kill us? They... they wouldn't be trying to use us as sacrifices or something, would they?"

"How would I know?!" Tiger said.

The residents of this small town are clearly not in good mental condition.

Hu Xiong felt that the people here seemed to be brainwashed cult members, and could not be judged by common sense.

"Squeak..."

At that moment, the door to the Shadow Prison was opened.

Two more people were thrown in.

It's Hua Lingze and Fang Wu...

Like Hu Xiong and the others, the two of them were tightly bound with dark cocoon silk and hung on the wall.

"Stay here quietly and cleanse yourselves of your sins!" Nail said, then turned and left.

Hua Lingze and Hu Xiong exchanged a glance.

"Hahahahaha..." Hu Xiong laughed loudly: "Isn't this Hua Lingze, the eldest young master of the Hua family in Kyoto? How did you, this arrogant and talented scion of a noble family, end up being captured in a place like this?"

Hua Lingze glanced at him but ignored him.

It turns out these people didn't die after all.

It seems that although the townspeople constantly attack outsiders, they do not kill them directly.

Seeing that Hua Lingze ignored him, Hu Xiong pouted, realizing he had made a fool of himself.

Fang Wu, his face pale, slowly opened his eyes: "Ouch...it hurts...where am I?"

Hua Lingze was somewhat surprised.

"Fang Wu?" Hua Lingze asked, "You're not dead?"

"...Of course I'm not dead." Fang Wu smiled bitterly. "Just now, those two stabbed me in the back with straight blades, but they didn't hit any vital organs. It just left two holes in my body..."

Hua Lingze remained silent, lost in thought.

Lin Yuxi and Dingzi launched a sneak attack just now; logically, they shouldn't have failed.

However, they still did not kill Fang Wu directly.

So, these people deliberately held back from killing the "outsiders"?

......

Linnaeus stood on the tiled roof of a house in the town.

This house is arguably the tallest house in the entire town.

You can see the layout in places far away.

Linna activated his Gray Eyes, scanning everything around him with his X-ray vision.

He quickly located the place where Hua Lingze and Fang Wu were being held.

Tiger and his gang were also there...

Moreover, Fang Wu was not dead.

Lin Nai frowned slightly.

"This level is really too strange."

"How exactly can I pass this level...?"

Linnaeus opened the system map again.

He was slightly taken aback.

On the map panel, the red dot that displays the "finish line" is flashing even more intensely than it did during the day.

Lin Nai touched his chin.

Does this mean we can only pass this level after midnight?

"Whoosh—..."

A sound of something cutting through the air suddenly rang out.

Linnaeus had exceptional hearing and immediately bent down to avoid it.

A throwing knife flew past his waist and stuck in the eaves next to him, the hilt trembling slightly from the force of the impact.

"Hehehe... You're pretty quick on the uptake."

A sinister voice came from behind.

Lin Nai turned his head and stared coldly at the person who had ambushed him from behind.

"You really are a persistent ghost, White Fang."
