But now, because of Li Yinchuan's presence, the thick fog in the center has been dispelled.

At this moment, Xia Jie seemed to have made some new discovery.

Xia Jie looked at the red-clothed evil spirit in the center that looked like a dry bone.

His sight kept moving around the red-clothed ghost within a ten-meter radius.

From the very beginning, they have had a name in their mouths, that is, "the weird center".

But in fact, they were very vague about the scope of the strange center they mentioned.

Previously, they had always thought that the red-clothed evil spirit was the center, and the rich area emanating from its own ghostly aura was the center of the weirdness.

But now, part of the rich ghost energy that spread out from the red-clothed evil ghost's own ghost energy has been dissipated.

Xia Jie suddenly discovered that the space within ten meters around the red-clothed ghost seemed to be distorted in some strange way.

Xia Jie understood that it was a strange environment that appeared randomly in any place in the "Strange Forest"!

Looking back now, it seems that the evil ghost in red has never left that strange environment.

From the very beginning, this evil ghost in red was trying to spread its ghost energy and expand to a larger environment.

Now that I think about it carefully, this red-clothed evil spirit is different from other evil spirits. It cannot be teleported away, nor will it leave the area around it.

This seems inherently odd.

Could it be that... the red-robed ghost's ability to constantly revive and restore its strength to its peak is related to the strange environment it is in? But unfortunately, all this is just speculation.

After all, there is too little useful information at present.

A lot of information in previous players’ game copies may not match.

Moreover, even if there were players who had entered the game instance before, they would generally try to avoid reaching the central area as much as possible.

After all, there is no need to think too much about the central area, as the most terrifying ghosts must exist there.

Therefore, it makes sense that no one knows what is going on in the center of the weirdness.

In other words, if everything really went according to Xia Jie and his companions' speculation.

Perhaps in the game copy, the strange environment of about ten meters square in the center of the weirdness can infinitely revive evil spirits, bringing constant danger to the players in the game copy.

After all, the lower limit is the copy of the Qingyi player, and the task requires only surviving for one day, so you can imagine how difficult it is.

but……

If that is true.

Now that this copy has been revived and entered reality, there is no reason to end it in just one day.

Without powerful horror game players to suppress it, the copies of reality resurrection will only continue to exist and become more and more dangerous.

As if he had thought of something, Xia Jie looked at Li Yinchuan.

Xia Jie suddenly shouted.

"Senior, that red-clothed ghost is not the main thing, attack first and destroy that strange environment!"

Li Yinchuan turned his head and glanced at Xia Jie, his expression unchanged.

Seeing Li Yinchuan's reaction, Xia Jie realized that he had talked nonsense, and an embarrassed expression immediately appeared on his face.

No matter how bad Li Yinchuan was, he was still a red-clothed player of the same level as himself, so it was not that he could not see this.

Sure enough, at this moment.

Li Yinchuan raised his arm holding the felling axe again, and swung out the axe blade with a strange red light.

This time, the target is the strange space where the red-clothed ghost is located, and they are ready to destroy that strange space directly.

But this time.

It seemed that he had also noticed Li Yinchuan's goal.

The evil ghost in red finally lost his usual calmness.

Violently fluctuating red ghost energy emerged from its body, covering the strange space of only ten meters square and providing protection.

At the same time, its ghost den was also condensed out.

But compared to the previous coverage range of 100 meters.

This time, the ghost den was also only ten meters in size, just enough to cover that strange space.

Immediately following.

That strange space also began to fluctuate.

Strange figures gradually emerged from it.

Those were the evil ghosts and monsters that had been killed by Xia Jie before but had not yet been resurrected.

The entire "Strange Forest" produced a special kind of vibration.

Strange figures rushed towards the center from the darkness on all sides.

Even in some other places in "The Forest of Strange Tales".

Some investigators involved are in danger and are about to die at the hands of strange and evil spirits.

But those strange and evil ghosts seemed to have heard some call, they stopped what they were doing and moved towards the center of the weirdness.

This scene made the association investigators, who were in danger, confused.

Even the situation faced by those lone blue-clothed players was almost the same.

The evil spirit that was fighting fiercely with them ignored them and directly broke away from the battle and headed towards the center of the weirdness.

But compared to the association investigators who were overwhelmed.

The few lone members of the Green Clothes Association looked in the direction where the evil spirits left, and seemed to have guessed something vaguely, but they chased after them regardless of their own recovering injuries.

Near the center of weirdness.

Xu Tianlei, Chang Lan, Xia Jie and the others all noticed the changes taking place nearby.

Countless strange and evil spirits swept in from all directions.

However, Xia Jie and his companions did not seem to be afraid of such changes. Instead, they showed excitement on their faces.

The more such changes there are, the more it proves that their guess is correct.

The strange space where the red-clothed evil ghost resides seems to be the real reason why these evil ghosts can be resurrected infinitely.

Thinking of this, the excitement on Xia Jie's face became even more intense.

After a short period of recovery, Xia Jie's complexion looked much better.

The red ghostly energy around him faintly appeared again, as if he was planning to destroy the strange space together with Li Yinchuan.

But unfortunately, all this was just Xia Jie thinking too much.

After a moment, Xia Jie knew it.

After Li Yinchuan's axe strike, his skills were no longer useful.

Accompanied by the axe blade of Li Yinchuan.

The red-clothed evil spirit at the center of the weirdness has also gathered countless forces to try to resist.

But the power levels between the two are similar, but the gap between them is obvious and frightening.

It's like several pieces of paper stacked on top of each other and a thin needle.

If we really compare them, perhaps the stacked pieces of paper are much heavier, while the needle is even smaller and invisible.

But in fact, the first moment the two come into contact, the fine needle can completely penetrate the stacked papers.

The same is true of Li Yinchuan's power.

The power of this axe blade is almost concentrated at one point.

It seemed that the power from the red-clothed ghost had firmly protected the strange space around him.

But it's of no use at all.

Use dots to break lines, and use lines to break surfaces.

When Li Yinchuan's thin line formed by the axe blade touched the defensive surface formed by the red-clothed evil spirit, it instantly split it in the middle, revealing the strange space sheltered underneath.

Those strange and evil ghosts that had been condensed into entities in the strange space were now fearlessly rushing towards the axe light created by Li Yinchuan.

But unfortunately, all the evil spirits that touched Li Yinchuan's axe were completely split in half in an instant, regardless of their strength.

There is no external obstruction.

The next moment, Li Yinchuan's axe blade slashed straight across the strange space.

At this moment, the entire "Strange Forest" seemed to be silent for a moment.

In that strange space of about ten square meters, countless cracks spread out like a spider web.

"Click"

A strange aura emanated.

At this moment, this strange space was destroyed.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

The red-clothed ghost at the center of the weirdness finally showed a hint of panic and tension.

At the same time, the fearless ghosts and monsters coming from all directions of the "Strange Forest" suddenly changed their ferocious fighting style at this moment.

The evil spirits that were fighting with the players became cautious and timid.

This behavior further proved that the group's previous guess was correct.

Fang Xiang and the other two looked at the other players who had been separated earlier and had gathered together with the evil ghosts and the weirdness.

"Everyone, these evil spirits cannot be resurrected. Kill them!"

Fang Xiang's fake ghost took the first step.

In front of the real red-clothed ghost, Fang Xiang was timid and submissive.

But in front of this group of green-clothed evil spirits, Fang Xiang Banbu Hongyi's strength is still able to crush a large number of them.

In addition, since these evil spirits knew that they could not be resurrected again, the way they fought was not as stressful as before.

For a moment, Fang Xiang and other players launched a one-sided massacre against the evil spirits and monsters approaching from the surrounding areas.

The other side.

The red-clothed ghost at the center of the weirdness was in an equally bad situation.

But its originally calm and peaceful gaze had turned into one of fear.

The reason it was able to remain calm before was because it was able to keep itself in peak condition without fear of death.

But now, this is its last life.

If you die, then you are really dead.

But at this moment, Li Yinchuan didn't wait for him to take action.

On the side, Xia Jie turned his head and looked at Li Yinchuan and said.

"Brother, please give me some face! How about letting me deal with this evil spirit?"

Hearing this, Li Yinchuan couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise in his eyes.

There is no reward for killing evil spirits in real dungeons, and it is a completely thankless task.

If this revival copy was not near Qiucheng, it might have an impact on Qiucheng if it was delayed for too long, otherwise Li Yinchuan might not have come here at the first time.

Now that someone is willing to take on this tough job, Li Yinchuan naturally will not refuse.

Besides, he really wanted to see the strength of these red-clothed players.

"If you want to make a move, then make a move."

Li Yinchuan said.

"Thank you very much."

Hearing this, Xia Jie thanked Li Yinchuan.

Then, Xia Jie turned his gaze and looked at the evil ghost in red. A ferocious smile slowly appeared on his face.

With your own strength.

Even when he was seriously injured before, he was still able to crush the evil spirit.

But due to the evil ghost's ability to resurrect infinitely, Xia Jie had no good solution.

"Now, I want to see how you can be resurrected after I kill you again."

His pale face revealed a hint of illness.

At this moment, Xia Jie's eyes became increasingly cold as he looked at the red-clothed evil ghost.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, because Li Yinchuan broke the strange space earlier.

The strength of this red-clothed ghost is also constantly declining.

In his previous peak state, also wearing red clothes, perhaps he could deal with Xia Jie.

Now the power of this red-clothed ghost is getting weaker and weaker.

In two minutes at most, it will fall to the top half-step red level.

But Xia Jie didn't intend to waste two minutes.

The ghost den belonging to Xia Jie suddenly emerged and enveloped the evil ghost in red.

The red-clothed evil spirit was surrounded by red light and tried to resist.

But this time, its strength was obviously much weaker than before and was easily suppressed by Xia Jie.

Li Yinchuan quietly observed the scene in front of him.

The red-clothed ghost, whose strength was constantly declining, did not have much resistance against a veteran red-clothed player like Xia Jie.

Along with the continuous generation of destructive power in Xia Jie's ghost den.

The power of the red-clothed evil spirit shrouded in it is becoming weaker and weaker.

Or it could be said that at some point just now, it had fallen back to the strength of Half-Step Red Clothes, so it appeared so powerless.

"Die! Why don't you revive me again?"

Xia Jie's cold voice sounded.

At this moment, the aura of the evil ghost in his den had completely dissipated.

At the same time, Xia Jie looked around vigilantly, until he found that the evil ghost had not really resurrected, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this point, the strongest evil ghost boss in this copy has died at the hands of Xia Jie.

Although killing this evil ghost consumed a lot of Xia Jie's ghost energy, a smile appeared on his face, and he looked at Li Yinchuan with more favor.

One reason is Li Yinchuan’s own strength.

The second reason was that Li Yinchuan gave the head of the evil ghost to Xia Jie, which made Xia Jie feel much better.

There are still a small number of evil spirits and monsters around trying to resist.

Immediately afterwards, with Xia Jie's attack again, those evil ghosts in green clothes, who were the most powerful, were easily wiped out.

Because the strange space was attacked before, all the evil ghosts and monsters rushed back.

This time, there is no need for the association members to separate and kill the weird ones.

As the last evil ghost was killed.

The strange atmosphere in the "Strange Forest" completely dissipated.

Then, the darkness that had been shrouding everyone slowly receded.

Above the sky, the bright light of stars and the moon shone brightly, illuminating the group of people in the darkness.

"it's over."

Fang Xiang and his group all breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.

They all had a look of fear in their hearts. If Li Yinchuan and Xia Jie were not there this time, they didn't know what the situation would be.

Thought of this.

Everyone turned their eyes to the two players in red, Li Yinchuan and Xia Jie.

Accepting everyone's gaze, Xia Jie couldn't help but reveal a smile on his sickly pale face.

But soon, the smile on Xia Jie's face became a little stiff.

Because he found that most of the awe-filled eyes around him were looking at Li Yinchuan.

Obviously, Chang Lan, Fang Xiang and his group felt that Li Yinchuan had put in more effort in this revival copy.

But it is indeed true.

If Li Yinchuan hadn't used an axe to completely split open the center of the strange thing, everything inside would have been exposed to everyone's view.

They may not know, and even if they do, they may not be able to destroy the strange environment that could revive evil spirits.

Compared in this way, even if Xia Jie killed the red-clothed evil ghost alone in the end.

But that behavior seemed more like an attempt to save face and regain the dignity that had been lost.

After all... In fact, if Xia Jie had been more careful at the beginning, and did not use the ghost den to eliminate him remotely, but instead checked the situation from close range.

Perhaps without waiting for the evil ghost to turn into a real red-clothed ghost, Xia Jie would be able to discover the problem himself and avoid it in time.

Thinking of this, Xia Jie couldn't help but sigh.

I know that it was my mistake that caused the difficulty of this revival copy to increase so much.

Xia Jie did not feel any jealousy towards Li Yinchuan.

At this moment, suddenly, as if he had thought of something, Chang Lan's puzzled voice rang out.

He looked at Xia Jie and asked.

"By the way, I've heard before that only the red-clothed players can truly clear the resurrection of the resurrection. This time the resurrection copy was cleared by you two red-clothed players. Does that mean that this copy will never be revived again in the future?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Fang Xiang, as well as many of the blue-clothed players and investigators from the association nearby, could not help but prick up their ears and listen carefully.

Obviously, they had heard some remarks before.

Even at this moment, Li Yinchuan couldn't help but look at Xia Jie, wanting to hear Xia Jie's answer.

At the scene, the only two people who knew the truth were Xia Jie and Xu Tianlei.

The two looked at each other, and then, Xia Jie's voice rang out.

The eyes of the people at the scene suddenly turned from hope to disappointment.

Xia Jie just shook his head slightly.

"No, you are all wrong. The red-clothed player actually cleared the revival copy for another reason."

"What's the reason?"

A blue-clad player from the association spoke subconsciously, but immediately realized that he had asked too much.

But as expected, the scene where Xia Jie opened his mouth to answer everyone's questions did not appear.

"I believe you don't want to know the real reason. Knowing it will only cause more trouble."

Immediately afterwards, Xia Jie's gaze suddenly turned to Li Yinchuan and Fang Xiang.

Li Yinchuan has now become a red player.

As for Fang Xiang, although he has not become a real red-clothed man yet, he will be almost there in the near future.

The purpose of his coming to Qiucheng this time was precisely for these two people.

Except Xu Tianlei who knew the truth because of his identity.

At the scene, only Li Yinchuan and Fang Xiang were qualified to know the real truth.

The two of them seemed to understand something from Xia Jie's eyes.

Under the current circumstances, the two did not ask any further questions.

The curiosity in Li Yinchuan's eyes slowly faded.

"Since there's nothing else to do, I'll go back."

After saying this, Li Yinchuan didn't plan to stay any longer and turned to leave.

Before turning around, he took one last look at Xia Jie.

There is deep meaning in his eyes.
