"There are people outside, the door is blocked." The ghost bride's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of incredulous anger.
The other vengeful spirits were all astonished upon hearing this.
Why is this happening?!
The male and female couple suddenly realized something and looked towards Xiao Jin's location, only to find that the person who should have been standing there had quietly disappeared at some point.
Now there's nothing you can't understand. They're all blind; they've been outsmarted to this extent.
"Damn it!"
Just then, a commotion faintly drifted into the church from outside.
Hidden in the shadows, Xiao Jin knew that Xu Qing had led the players into action. Immediately afterward, a large fire broke out outside the church, turning the stained-glass windows a fiery red.
"Not only the main entrance, but the entire church is sealed off by some unknown force, and we can't get out," the female couple said.
"Ha!" The ghost bride flicked her long, flowing sleeves. "Did they think they could burn us to death like this? A mere fire..."
"Of course not." Before the ghost bride could finish speaking, a cold voice rang out from the shadows.
The ghosts immediately became alert and looked around, but found no one.
But there was no need to think too much; upon hearing that familiar voice, all the ghosts were filled with hatred.
The female couple shouted into the church, "Why are you plotting against us on behalf of humans? Aren't you afraid of the Lord of Paradise... wait, why do you have the aura of a human on you?"
They had barely exchanged a few words when the female couple sensed something strange about Xiao Jin.
"Still haven't reacted yet..." Xiao Jin emerged from behind a stone pillar inside the church, his armor radiating a crystalline glow.
"It seems I overestimated you." At the same time, an identical Xiao Jin emerged from behind another stone pillar.
The ghosts standing nearby stared warily at the two figures, trying to tell which one was real and which one was fake.
"Damn it, you lowly human, you lied to us." The ghost bride's face was extremely distorted, her ghostly aura intensified, and two streams of bloody tears slowly flowed from her dark eyes.
The male couple stood up and angrily said, "Don't waste your breath on him, just kill him. I'll show you what happens when you play games with us."
"Exactly, you think you can deal with us all by yourself? You don't even consider whether you have the ability."
As they spoke, the female couple took the initiative. Its movements were ghostly, and with a few drifts, it probed at Xiao Jin on the far left.
At this moment, she was no longer afraid of Xiao Jin. Without the ghostly aura bestowed by the [Ghost Hair], Xiao Jin looked as easy to crush as an ant.
Before the female couple could even reach Xiao Jin, the male couple who had been watching from behind suddenly narrowed their eyes: "A Cai, get out of the way!"
But it was too late.
The blade's edge, like a bolt of lightning striking from the sky, carried an invincible aura as it descended from above, striking the female couple named A-Cai with overwhelming force.
The one who made the move was Xiao Jin's true form, which was hiding above the church. She had activated the 'Key of the Moon' clone skill early on.
The first two were just bait.
A-Cai sensed the threat above her that could shatter her to pieces. Instinctively, she raised her right hand, and ghostly energy condensed above her head in an attempt to block this fatal blow.
However, the blade's light was like shattered void, its fragments rushing straight in.
It easily pierced through A-Cai's defenses, piercing her palm with a shrill whistle, and then mercilessly plunged into her left shoulder.
"Ah!!" Ah Cai cried out in pain, and then a strong feeling of numbness quickly spread from the wound to her whole body.
Then, to her horror, Ah Cai discovered that she was completely unable to move.
Meanwhile, Xiao Jin's eyes flashed with a cold light; she naturally wouldn't give A Cai any chance to breathe.
She swiftly drew the Shadow Dagger from her waist with her left hand and attacked A Cai, simultaneously activating the Shadow Dagger skill.
This will not only increase the speed of Xiao Jin's next attack, but will also be accompanied by a tearing effect.
This strike was as fast as lightning.
The shadow stab, accompanied by the sound of something cutting through the air, aimed straight for Ah Cai's vitals. A flicker of fear flashed in Ah Cai's eyes; she wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
The blade flashed like a silver lightning bolt, instantly piercing her skull. Furthermore, the energy from the Shadow Thorn continued to rage within A-Cai's brain, shredding it into a mass of dust.
Even as her lifeless eyes slowly closed and her body collapsed weakly to the ground, A-Cai was still filled with confusion.
Why... how could she just die like that!
“Ah Cai…”
She could faintly hear her boyfriend's heart-wrenching cries, but she could no longer hear them.
All of this happened too fast; it's more accurate to say that Xiao Jin's calculations were perfectly timed.
In a mere instant, the vengeful spirit had lost one person. The remaining male couple had gone mad, their eyes glaring at Xiao Jinshi as if they wanted to devour her alive.
"Ah~ I'm going to crush you!" he roared, and then charged at Xiao Jin.
The fierce ghostly energy continued to rage around Xiao Jin, and many scratches appeared on the crystallized armor.
The ghost bride suppressed her arrogance and said to the ghost baby and the big guy beside her, "Come at me together."
Hehehe~
The ghost baby's laughter was sharp and piercing, echoing in the empty and dimly lit church like a blade.
The burly man, his eyes bloodshot, cried out, "You killed my sister! I'm going to beat you to a pulp!"
With his angry footsteps, the big man pounded on the stone bricks of the ground, each step making a rumbling sound, heading straight for Xiao Jin.
He raised his fist, the size of a sandbag, high in the air, his muscles taut on his skin, as if he were about to tear the air apart at any moment.
Meanwhile, the ghost bride drifted elusively through the church like a ghost, her figure appearing and disappearing intermittently, accompanied by gusts of eerie wind that sent chills down one's spine.
The red and white ribbons around her waist appeared even more vivid, like blood, in the firelight.
It then drew strange arcs in the air, moving at an astonishing speed, like a deadly venomous snake, silently engulfing Xiao Jin from all directions.
Xiao Jin stood still, facing the sudden onslaught of attacks, but her face showed no fear or panic.
She immediately activated the props she had just come up with.
【Belt of Cursed Music: ...Reduces all attributes by 5% (lasts 10 minutes), and will also trigger a confusion state (40 seconds)】
[Inspiring bugle call:]
Encourage: Increases the speed of everyone within a 50-meter radius by 20%, increases strength by 3, increases defense by 3, and reduces skill cooldown time by 30%, lasting for half an hour.
Suppression: Reduces all attributes of the specified target by 10% for 30 minutes.
There are both benefits and debuffs. The benefits are not only for Xiao Jin inside the church, but also for Xu Qing and others who are fighting against low-level ghosts outside.
For the suppression skill 'Inspiring Horn', Xiao Jin chose the Ghost Bride, who has crowd control attributes and is extremely rational.
