The sun had completely set in the sky, and the wind blew through the gaps in the glass of the library, making a whining sound.
This place has long been abandoned.
When the school closed down and was turned into a mental hospital, no one dared to use it. It was said to be haunted.
Many doctors and nurses passing by at night would notice some will-o'-the-wisps and the sound of pages turning in books, but they would invite people to look at them, but nothing would be found.
"When I finish solving this situation, if Silent Father and Guan Ze have not completed their tasks, I will replace them. Guan Ze should be fine. As a member of the Mushroom Club, Silent Father has some means, but Silent Father is a bit in doubt."
"I hope everything goes well. It always feels too weird. Where does the mission of the Holy Grail ultimately lead? I have to be more careful."
Xu Ye looked at the closed thick glass door, broke off a steel bar from the door on the side, and hit the door with a stick.
boom!
The glass door explodes.
Xu Ye walked in cautiously.
He took off one eyeball and his left arm, held a flashlight, and floated ten meters away from him to explore the way.
At the same time, he stretched out his tentacles.
The four tentacles, which are tens of meters long, are like snake spirits that have been practicing for thousands of years. They are either flying in the air or wandering on the ground, exuding spiritual energy to touch each item.
"anyone there?"
Xu Ye knocked on the ground with an iron rod and said friendly.
Alice was speechless: "You don't want to dress like this, who dares to come out to see you!"
The surroundings were empty, with only echoes.
After exploring the first floor without any movement, Xu Ye walked along the stairs to the second floor.
Most of the bookshelves here have collapsed, and various books have fallen to the ground. Some of them have many dark footprints on them.
Hiss!
The tentacles passed through the collapsed bookshelf, leaving behind thick liquid.
Xu Ye frowned and then shook his head.
This library has more than a dozen floors, and it would be quite a waste of time to explore them one by one.
At this moment, the bandit master suddenly said: "Xu boy, wait a minute, I feel a strange smell here. Please believe my nose, although I don't have... Well, there are very subtle fluctuations. The other party is hiding
The ability is so good that I can hardly notice it now.”
Xu Ye breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at the dim library: "I know you are here, and you must have encountered something extremely tragic, but I can understand it."
"Give you ten seconds, or I will blow this place up."
There was no sound, only the wind was blowing, turning the pages of the book.
Xu Ye silently took out a Explosive Flame Talisman and weighed it in his hand. It was emitting violent energy fluctuations.
Wow.
The books in the library were flipped together, as if they were mocking Xu Ye's ignorance.
Xu Ye took two steps forward, and he suddenly discovered that under the light of the flashlight, his shadow turned crooked.
Then, the shadow's head split open, as if smiling at itself.
The sound of wind in the air became gloomy.
"It's a nice scary scene..." Xu Ye shrugged. He used his tentacles to push aside the books in front of him, and followed the bandit's instructions until he came to a book with a black cover.
The book is on the ground, with "On the Origin of Vampires and Zombies" written on the cover.
?
A question mark appeared on Xu Ye's forehead. What kind of combination was this? Two things that couldn't be beaten with eight sticks were mixed together.
He stretched out his tentacles and was about to pick up the book.
Suddenly, with a clatter, the book opened on its own, and a pale hand stretched out from the pages, grabbing Xu Ye's tentacles tightly.
"Hehehehe..."
A series of strange screams came from the pages of the book. If it were an ordinary person, it would have been frightened to death. Even the awakened person would not feel comfortable.
But Xu Ye was filled with a smile, and with a strong force of his tentacles, he pulled the other person out of the book, then swung it and slammed it onto the bookshelf.
That was a middle-aged man in his fifties.
The upper body is wearing a gray plaid shirt and the lower body is tattered linen pants. The body is covered with dust, the hair is sparse, and there are two deep nasolabial folds on both sides of the cheeks.
Xu Ye rolled up the black knife with his tentacle and put it against his throat. As long as the other party showed a little bit of aggression, he would kill him without hesitation.
"Name, why are you pretending to be a ghost here?"
"I?"
The middle-aged man was confused and swayed twice, "Yes, who am I and why am I here? I don't know!"
"Sir, please calm down and cooperate with my work. Thank you."
Xu Ye slapped the man with the back of his knife.
The middle-aged man looked at Xu Ye's executioner-like eyes and couldn't help but shudder. He stammered and began to introduce himself:
"My name is Chen Mu. I live in the Flame Camp. Because it is in a semi-safe zone, there is a lack of supplies."
"I have an old mother who lived to be ninety years old."
"She has lived too long, so long that everyone is scared. There is a legend in our Flame Camp that once the old man's lifespan is too long, it will consume the lifespan of the next generation."
"I could only follow the tradition of our camp and put my old mother in a brick house and give her only a mouthful of water and a mouthful of bread every day."
"Every day she lives, I will personally get a brick and place it on the wall that exposes half of the space in front of her."
"Day after day, the bricks grew taller and taller, surpassing the height of the old mother, blocking the view, leaving only a little light in the room."
"I can still recall the old mother's hoarse voice, her old arms, slapping the wall, begging me to let her out."
"My heart aches."
"But once I let her out, I will be kicked out of the camp."
"In the end, she stopped crying and asked me to give her an extra sip of water, but this was not allowed either."
"The bricks were stacked one after another, and I could hear her sighing every day, but she still refused to die. Until the last brick, the brick house was completely sealed, and no more water or food could be sent in..."
"She started beating the wall hard, but after just a day, the sound disappeared."
"Everyone in the camp said she was dead."
"She died...that place became her grave, the grave I built for her with my own hands."
"That day, there was joy and excitement in the camp and a bonfire party was held. But suddenly, there was a movement in the brick house, and my mother rushed out. She turned into the legendary flying zombie and killed everyone."
"When I wake up again, I will already be here."
He lowered his head, looking confused, and shed tears again.
Xu Ye touched his head and sighed: "I know how uncomfortable you are, but I'm in a hurry, be patient, and it will be over soon."
Middle-aged man: "???"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Ye waved his tentacle, and the black knife slashed directly at the middle-aged man's neck.
However, there was no sound of the blade entering the flesh. Instead, there was a metallic collision, causing sparks to fly.
Xu Ye took a closer look and saw a yellow-brown talisman squirming out from the skin on the man's neck.
"Diamond Talisman!"
The bandit said in surprise, "Xu boy, be careful, I smell the breath of the Talisman Demon. He controls the laws of all things, and he can integrate all power into the Talisman."
Talisman?!
grass!
Another true god.
Why won’t Lu Xiaodao meet me, but I keep meeting him? It doesn’t make sense.
This isn't fair.
Xu Ye quickly backed away, only to see one after another yellow-brown talismans appearing on the middle-aged man's body.
Turn him into a minion.
At the same time, his skin began to turn brown and hair grew, resembling a zombie.
However, the strange changes did not stop.
The man's teeth began to elongate, especially the tiger teeth, which were as sharp as syringes. With a splash from behind, a pair of thin black wings spread out.
"Vampire zombie!" Xu Ye hissed.
"Fuck, could it be that the Blood Ancestor's wife had an affair with the Talisman Demon and came up with such a thing?" The gangster started gossiping.
Feeling the terrifying energy rushing toward his face, which had reached the level of level 3 aberration, Xu Ye was shocked.
Whoosh!
He immediately retreated.
However, the opponent's speed reached the limit.
Xu Ye grabbed Alice and threw it towards the vampire zombie.
"Xu Ye! This is the second time! You can't be like this as a human being, you have a problem with your character!" Alice went crazy, her body whirring.
It gritted its teeth, grabbed an eye socket of the green-headed skull with one claw, twisted its waist, and threw the skull over like a bowling ball.
