The sharp knife floating in the air repeatedly stabbed the pan, making a clanking sound.
At the same time, another pan floated up from the kitchen shelf, flew behind Martin silently, and aimed at the back of his head to slap him hard!
boom!
As if he had been hit with a sap, Martin suddenly saw stars in his eyes, clutching the swollen back of his head, staggered backwards, spinning around, and fell down at the door of the kitchen.
The bone-eliminating steel knife on the opposite side took the opportunity to fly over and stabbed directly into Martin's heart.
The hound "landlord" roared and flew forward, biting the back of the knife and tearing hard to prevent the steel knife from stabbing his master.
The pan that had just attacked Martin also flew over and hit the hound hard on the head.
Whoosh!
A green thorny vine swung over and wrapped itself around the pan, forcing it away from the hounds.
Gao Fei controlled the "Whip of Thorns" and forcibly dragged the pan to him. He stabbed with the sword in his left hand and made a hole in the pan.
The injured pan seemed to have exhausted its life, and fell to the ground with a clang, motionless.
Martin covered the back of his head and reluctantly stood up. He followed Goofy's example and threw out the "Whip of Thorns", wrapped it around the boning knife bitten by the hound, and threw it to the ground.
The steel knife fell to the ground and stopped moving.
Martin breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and asked Gao Fei: "What's going on?"
Gao Fei initially thought that the boning knives and pans that automatically attacked him and Martin were activated constructs similar to the "Volley Sword".
However, after using the astrolabe to identify them, they found that they were just ordinary knives and pots.
The reason for the floating attack is probably due to the remote control of the mysterious ghost.
So, where is the ghost hiding?
Gao Fei used "Detect Undead" to continue tracking the negative energy fluctuations, and finally his sight was fixed directly above the stove.
"Martin, light up my sword." Goofy whispered to his partner.
Martin nodded knowingly, and cast the level 0 "Light Technique" on Goofy's rapier, making the blade shine brightly like a torch.
Gao Fei raised his glowing thin sword and pointed it at the top of the stove.
Under the strong light, a small shadow was faintly visible on the soot-stained wall.
The chubby body, small arms and legs, look like a baby.
Gao Fei held his breath and took two steps forward with his sword.
As the light intensifies, the ghostly figure on the wall gradually becomes clearer.
This was indeed a little baby. He probably died just after birth. For some unknown reason, his resentment persisted and turned into a haunting ghost.
"So, the strange things happening in the grocery store are caused by this little guy?"
Martin raised his gun and aimed at the ghost baby, unable to bear to shoot for a moment.
In the next moment, the ghost baby suddenly raised his little hand and pushed Gao Fei from a distance of ten feet.
As if being hit by an invisible heavy hammer, Gao Fei flew backwards.
Bang!
His back hit the wall hard and he fell to the ground. His chest felt tight and he almost lost his breath.
Just being pushed in the air by the ghost baby, he suffered 11 points of damage, which was equivalent to being shot!
boom!
Seeing his partner being knocked away, Martin finally couldn't help but shoot.
The bullet passed through the ghost baby's illusory body and embedded itself in the wall without causing any harm to him.
It was only then that Martin suddenly remembered that Gao Fei had said that ordinary weapons, including firearms, could not kill incorporeal undead creatures.
He quickly put away his shotgun and instead used the "Whip of Thorns" to whip the ghost baby suspended above the stove.
A little ghost, very clever.
He ducked his head to avoid the whipping, and with a flick of his hand, the kettle on the remote control stove floated into the air and hit Martin.
Without much thought, Martin swung his whip, intending to knock the kettle away.
Unexpectedly, the pot was filled with boiling water, and the moment he was whipped, the boiling water splashed out and poured on his body, which made him scream in agony.
"Woof woof!"
The brave hound swoops in to protect its owner.
The sharp canine teeth can't hurt the ghost either, and the whole mouth is full of loneliness.
The ghost baby shook its little hands, pulled out two burning logs from the furnace, and threw them at Martin and the Hound respectively.
One person and one dog rolled on the spot, trying to avoid the burning firewood thrown at them.
The ghost baby seems to like playing this game very much, with a mischievous smile on its hazy little face.
Then he pulled out a red-hot tongs from the furnace through the air, and the remote-controlled tongs flew 20 feet and stabbed Martin.
"Oh-no!"
Martin was so frightened that he used his hands and feet and rolled and crawled.
"!"
Gao Fei, who fell in the corner, sat up with support, pointed at the ghost baby with his left hand, and blasted a blue-purple shock wave from his palm!
The level 0 "Magic Explosion" was also stolen from the kobold warlock.
This spell with the "force field" attribute ignores the avoidance characteristics of incorporeal creatures and is suitable for dealing with ghosts.
Bang!
The ghost baby suspended in mid-air was penetrated by the "magic energy explosion" and suffered 6 points of damage, and its health bar dropped by about 1/5.
One "magic blast" was not enough to destroy the ghost baby, but it caused a strong psychological shock to the little thing.
Now he knows that this is no longer a playground where he can play in peace, and someone can hurt him.
A sad expression appeared on the ghost baby's hazy face. He covered his face with his hands, cried silently, turned around and walked out through the wall.
When Goofy and Martin helped each other up and chased out of the kitchen door, the little thing was nowhere to be found.
Gao Fei was not in a hurry to pursue the ghost baby. He opened the astrolabe and looked at the monster illustration.
The official name of ghost babies is "haunting ghosts".
The haunting ghost does not realize that it is dead, but vaguely retains the image of its previous life, moves according to the habits of its lifetime, and usually does not stay far away from the environment in which it was born and grew up.
It can be seen from this that the ghost causing trouble in the grocery store was probably born in the d'Urberville family.
From the image of the haunting ghost's baby, and then thinking of Mrs. Gray's melancholy demeanor and strange attitude towards the ghost baby, Gao Fei couldn't help but have a guess.
"Man, do you know when Mrs. Gray married Mr. Gray?" Goofy asked Martin.
"Let me think about it...it seems to be last autumn. I can't remember clearly. It was probably September. What happened?"
Gao Fei sighed.
It's mid-April now. Even if the Grays got married in early September last year and got pregnant right after they got married, it would still be less than seven months old.
Judging from its shape, the ghost baby is similar to a full-term fetus. Even if it is premature and dies, it will not look like a miscarriage after more than six months of pregnancy.
It can be seen that Mrs. Gray was pregnant for at least two months before she married her husband.
It is said that Tess did not have a long love stage before marrying her husband, but had a flash marriage with the permission of her parents.
So the question is, if the ghost baby was born by Mrs. Grey, is the baby's father really Mr. Grey?
Comparing the details revealed in just a few words when the three members of the Deberville family quarreled, the answer is self-evident.
