After learning that there might be a fourth-order nightmare in Gray Dream Town, Annuo didn't want to stay here any longer.
In a good mood, Lasu took Annuo directly to the hotel in the town.
After buying some food, Annuo prepared to leave the town.
"It seems that the strength of these mercenaries should be similar to that of the soldiers in your town. If the soldiers can't solve the problem, they probably won't be able to do anything about it!"
When An Nuo saw Lasu preparing to leave, he reminded him specifically.
Unexpectedly, the other party's answer made An Nuo stunned.
"Soldiers? The only two soldiers in Graydream Town disappeared a week ago. Speaking of which, the town was cursed just two days after they disappeared!"
"What did you say?"
An Nuo's face changed, and he pointed in the direction he came from and said, "But when I came in, I clearly saw two soldiers guarding outside!"
"impossible!"
La Su waved his hands and said confidently: "Don't say they are missing. Even if they are not missing, they would have gone back to rest by now, so why would they be on duty!"
An Nuo saw that Lasu didn't seem to be joking, so he turned to look at Liz.
Although she didn't say anything, Liz understood what Anno meant.
She nodded to indicate that she had also seen the two soldiers.
“It’s getting weirder and weirder!”
An Nuo looked at the sky which was already darkening and his face looked grim.
Now An Nuo just wants to leave this town as soon as possible.
After glancing at the ten mercenaries who followed the mayor to investigate the town, Annuo took Liz and ran all the way to the north gate of the town.
As soon as I ran to the fence wall, two people dressed as soldiers suddenly jumped out from the shadows.
Annuo, who had night vision, discovered that the two men looked exactly like the soldiers he had seen at the south gate before.
Two soldiers blocked Annuo's way when he was about to leave the town.
One of them looked indifferent and said in a tone without a trace of warmth: "It's getting late, you are not allowed to leave the town!"
An Nuo took two steps back, staring at the two people in front of him.
"What's going on? The [Five Visions All-Powerful] clearly shows that the other party is a human, level 10. But why do they suddenly give me an extremely dangerous feeling?"
An Nuo felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.
“Ah~!”
At this moment, a terrified scream suddenly came from the town.
The owner of the sound seemed to have met with an accident, and after calling out once, there was no more sound.
But not long after, screams were heard again.
Annuo counted them and found that there were exactly ten sounds, no more, no less!
The number of mercenaries invited by the mayor was also ten!
"Owner!"
Liz approached Anno and looked at the two soldiers in front of her warily.
After the tenth scream, the two soldiers with dark circles under their eyes suddenly smiled strangely as they looked at Anno and the other man.
"It's okay, go back to town and sleep! Otherwise, something bad will happen!"
“Tsk~!”
There was a flash in An Nuo's hand, and a long sword appeared in his hand.
There is definitely something wrong with these two guards.
It seems that there are more unknown enemies in the town than the two in front of us!
An Nuo stopped talking nonsense and started fighting directly.
"【Cross Blade】!"
Two sword lights, more than one meter long, flew in a cross shape towards the two approaching soldiers.
With these two swords, a normal level 10 warrior would be crippled if not killed.
But the reality is, the [Cross Blade] actually passed through the soldier's body without any hindrance!
Although there was a hint of surprise in their eyes, the attack did not cause any substantial harm to the two.
"how so?"
An Nuo was also shocked by the situation.
He even suspected that he had been caught in an illusion without knowing it, or had been dragged into a dream by a nightmare.
But the next moment, Annuo denied his guess.
Although the enemy in front of him was immune to the [Cross Blade], his body changed after ripples appeared on it.
Their bodies turned into a black shadow about two meters long, floating in the air.
The black face had a fanged mouth and red eyes, but no nose was visible.
The length of the arm is about one and a half meters.
Ten thirty-centimeter-long claws rolled up black mist.
There is no lower body, only a black mist similar to a tail.
An Nuo immediately used [Five Visions Universal Power] to see the information of one of them.
Name: Maiba
Race: Ghost
Level: 19
Health: 14000/14000
Mana: 20000/20000
Talent: None
Skills: [Spirit] [Floating] [Mimicry] [Lightness] [Intimidation] [Scream of Terror] [Soul-Rending Claw] [Soul-Sucking] [Confuse]
The situation of another person named Qiao Lu is similar.
Only then did An Nuo discover it.
What is before my eyes is not a human being, but a ghost.
After the demon of the abyss, Annuo saw the ghost of the underworld for the first time!
The Netherworld and the Abyss are both located in the Demon Realm.
On the front-line battlefield, ghosts appear much more frequently than demons.
Because they have no form, they often act as scouts.
"So, the information I saw earlier was a disguise of the ghost. Judging from the skill column, it should be the effect of [Mimicry]!"
After knowing the other party's identity, Annuo felt relieved.
The level 19 ghost is not easy to deal with.
But it’s better than facing a fourth-order nightmare!
"Hehehe, no wonder your souls smell so good, it turns out you are the strongest among humans!"
After being attacked and returning to its original form, Maiba let out a shrill laugh, then pounced on Anno with Qiaolu.
Although it was the first time that An Nuo encountered a ghost, he already knew some information about the other party.
"The ghost has no entity, and is almost 100% immune to physical attacks of the same level!"
This is also the reason why the previous [Cross Blade] did not cause any damage to them.
With this information flashing through his mind, Annuo stuck his sword into the ground and raised his hand to put on a [Magic Shield] on himself.
Bang!
The claws shining with black light grabbed the magic shield, and the latter shattered instantly.
"Magic shield?"
Maiba was confused for a moment.
This guy was holding a long sword just now, shouldn’t he be a warrior?
How come there is a magic shield?
And when did the magic wand appear in his hand?
“What a fast speed!”
An Nuo was also shocked.
He only saw a black shadow flash by and the shield was shattered.
Qiao Lu, who was attacking at the same time as Maiba, was surprised to see that the former was blocked by the magic shield, but he did not stop attacking.
If one were to describe the way the ghost moves, it would be 'floating'.
Therefore, their speed is more than twice as fast as humans of the same level!
As soon as the shield was torn, Qiaolu's claws were about to touch Anno's neck.
“【Resist Aura】!”
The wand in his hand flashed with light, and Qiao Lu was instantly pushed several meters away by an invisible force.
"What's going on?"
Qiao Lu stopped his backward movement, stopped in mid-air and looked at An Nuo.
"Phew! Fortunately, the [Resist Aura] works!"
Annuo breathed a sigh of relief and immediately took Liz back more than ten meters.
