Only two oil lamps were left burning in the main hall.
Another ghost controller accidentally triggered the ghost's killing pattern and died a violent death.
And the attack process this time was far more dangerous than the last one.
According to the situation when Li Leping was attacked, once targeted by that ghost swamp, the living person trapped in it should still be able to persist for a period of time. Even if it will sink in the end, it will only take a few seconds to sink compared to a few minutes.
Sinking is not a concept at all.
The slower it sinks, the longer the person who is attacked can live, and the people nearby can use this to observe and analyze more information.
However, what people did not expect was that the intensity of this attack was far greater than the previous one.
In just a few seconds, under the watchful eyes of everyone, a large living person sank in without any sound.
"How is it possible? It's only been a few seconds and the person is gone?"
One of the ghost masters looked horrified, his eyes fixed on the place where the ghost master was swallowed, and the corners of his mouth were trembling as he spoke.
This is completely different from what happened last time.
"No, we cannot use the persistence time of the headquarters captain as a benchmark for ourselves." Another ghost controller suppressed his fear and said calmly while looking towards the altar.
Without the illumination of two oil lamps, the entire hall seemed much darker.
Li Leping's figure in the center of the hall was also a bit blurry in the dimness. In addition, there seemed to be some kind of special supernatural being surrounding him, which made him look like an illusory figure in the eyes of everyone, making it difficult to see clearly.
The ghost controller continued: "He is too strong and is no longer on the same level as us, so he can survive the attacks of ghosts and even has the ability to fight back, but we people don't have such ability.
, if you get even a little bit of supernatural power, you will die instantly."
The ghost controllers who have survived to this day are not stupid. Their experiences these days have made them clearly realize the gap between themselves and the captain-level ghost controllers.
However, a ghost controller spoke at this time, with a kind of panic in his tone, recalling the scene where Li Leping suddenly sank to the floor: "But even a ghost controller as strong as him is still in trouble."
I suffered a big loss due to the attack of ghosts."
As soon as these words came out, the others showed frightened expressions and looked at the ghost controller who spoke last. Although they were very reluctant, they had to agree with what he said.
If the captain-level ghost masters cannot withstand such a weird attack, then people like themselves will only die faster under such a terrifying attack. Just like the unlucky guy who was attacked just now, there is no chance of struggling.
No, it disappeared instantly.
For a moment, everyone was silent.
Because it's always hard to accept such cruel facts, especially now that I am at the center of the incident.
A ghost whose killing patterns are unknown and who can be dragged in by a company captain-level ghost controller is far beyond what they can deal with, and it is an existence that is enough to make people feel desperate.
If a ghost of this level of horror wants to kill someone, no ghost controller can fight it.
Now it seemed that they could only stand there and pray that they would not inadvertently trigger the ghost's killing pattern.
Once it is triggered, it can only be like the ghost controller who died before.
However, just when everyone chose to remain silent, forcing themselves to accept the facts, and reducing physical activity as much as possible to reduce the probability of being targeted by ghosts,
"ah!"
Another horrifying scream sounded.
You don't need to look to know that another ghost master has been attacked.
The floor under your feet once again seemed to have turned into a quagmire invisible to the naked eye. Once you step on this bottomless quagmire, you will sink.
And the more you resist, the faster you sink.
If you want to use supernatural power to resist, you will violate the taboos of this swamp.
The ghosts sunk at the bottom of the swamp will surface at this time, and then pull the person alive with the swamp.
This level of danger is something that a ghost controller cannot resist. Even before a person sinks into the mud, he is killed by the ghost that catches him.
Just a few seconds again.
Under the horrified gaze of everyone, the attacked ghost master quickly sank into the stone floor beneath his feet. His whole body seemed to have been submerged, and his screams stopped as soon as he started.
If Li Leping's guess about this place is followed, the moment when the exit ceremony is held can actually be regarded as the fifth day.
And on the fifth day, counting the two ghost masters who died before, four ghost masters had been killed by ghosts today.
Deaths kept appearing, and it was different from the day before when we couldn't see clearly in the darkness. Although more people were killed by ghosts at that time, no one could see clearly how things happened. Unlike now,
Every ghost master who died died in front of everyone.
The despair and fear at the last second before being swallowed were all displayed on their faces. Seeing the ferocious appearance of these dead people, the living people could not help but feel a huge psychological impact. They felt extremely horrified and had chills all over their bodies.
In such a depressing environment, one of the ghost controllers became emotionally disturbed. He shouted, with saliva flowing from the corners of his mouth: "No, no, we can't stay in this hall any longer. If we stay any longer, we have to
I’m afraid I don’t even know how he died.”
No longer caring about image management, he trembled all over and glanced in all directions, but no matter how he looked, he couldn't find the ghost.
Ghosts that do not exist in reality wander here, and people are not even aware that they are being targeted. Only when they are actually caught by the ghosts do they suddenly realize that they are being targeted.
And in that situation, even the ghost controller has nowhere to escape and can only choose to fight to the end.
"The door is not shrouded in darkness like before?"
Suddenly, the slightly insane ghost controller, who looked everywhere with his eyes, noticed that the outside of the palace door seemed to be very clean.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If the danger in the hall continues today, the number of people who will die in the end will definitely not be less than the previous day, and they will even be wiped out here.
However, although the inside of the hall was still extremely dangerous at this moment, the outside of the hall was not shrouded in fog-like darkness like before.
The scene outside the temple was similar to when I first arrived. Under the cold moonlight, most of the temple came into view.
Could it be that the outside of the main hall is actually safe?
Perhaps this means that people who walk out of the hall will not disappear silently as soon as they enter the darkness like before, never to come back.
"Perhaps the opposite is true at times like this, and running out the door is the way to survive?"
The ghost controller was thinking, although he was a little mentally disturbed at the moment and seemed to be panicking to survive, but he still maintained the last bit of sanity.
After all, earlier, he had seen a ghost controller running out the door in a panic and seeking medical treatment, and then the whole person disappeared into the darkness as if he had evaporated.
"ah!"
However, while thinking, there was another scream of terror.
Another person somehow triggered the killing pattern of that ghost swamp, and was pulled into the swamp that suddenly appeared in sight by an irresistible force, and then sank down little by little.
"Damn it!"
At this time, a ghost controller who seemed to have a good relationship with him suddenly shrank his eyes when he saw this, and then gritted his teeth and flew towards him.
The distance between the two is very close.
Maximum distance of one meter.
It's too late.
The next second.
The ghost master who pounced forward caught the ghost master who was half-buried into the ground.
Immediately.
He used his palms to pull hard on the ghost rider's arm, trying to pull back the sinking ghost rider.
But then.
"What?!"
Amid the screams, the ghost master who was trying to save people opened his eyes wide, with deep fear on his face, as if he had seen something terrible.
Suddenly, the place he was in changed.
before.
Although they are still in the main hall, the stone tile floor under their feet has disappeared, replaced by a pool of foul-smelling mud. This pool of mud seems to have been gathering here for a long time, covering the original stone tile floor.
.
In front of him, the ghost controller whom he was tightly grasping at this moment was trapped in this strange swamp.
"not good!"
The moment he noticed something strange happened in the scene in front of him, the ghost master finally realized what was attacking the ghost master in the hall.
It's this weird swamp.
But after knowing this, he immediately realized another even more terrifying thing.
The reason why he was able to see this weird swamp was not because of his special abilities, but because he was also pulled in by this terrifying swamp at this moment.
He was pulled into this strange and supernatural place.
In this case……
"no, do not want!"
He suddenly sank with the ghost master in front of him and shouted.
First his feet, then half his legs, and then his entire lower body sank into this swamp that exuded a thick putrid odor.
This swamp seemed to have swallowed up many people and deposited countless dead bodies. The smell of rotting corpses even caused a lingering corpse stench to float throughout the swamp.
soon.
Under the strange pull of the swamp.
There are two more bodies in this swamp.
"run!"
The ghost controller, who was already a little insane, couldn't stand it anymore after seeing this scene.
People in the hall kept dying.
Since the return of the second messenger, up to now, only six of the twelve ghost masters have died.
The number dropped sharply by half.
If we exclude Li Leping, who had already been attacked once, then there would be only five and a half dead.
The fewer people there are, the greater the chance of being targeted.
this moment.
The fear of death overcame the remaining sanity.
The ghost controller used his legs to exert force, and with bloodshot eyes, he ran toward the palace door like a hungry and crazed beast.
"What? He wants to run out the door?"
"Maybe it works?"
Except for Li Leping and Jiang Hao, the remaining three ghost masters looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.
Looking at the palace gate with no sign of darkness erosion, they couldn't help but think that maybe this somewhat crazy behavior was actually the right thing to do?
Maybe you can survive by escaping outside the hall?
If you just want to verify your conjecture, you can only risk your life to test it.
But there is only one life, and if it is gone, it is gone, so no one dares to test lives randomly.
"Let's see if he can survive."
The three people stared closely at the ghost master who was trying to run out, because this was also a matter of life and death for them.
Ghosts are threatening their lives in the hall.
There seem to be only two ways to survive at present.
One is to open the coffin as before and complete the so-called exit process.
The other option is to run, run out first and then talk.
As for how to complete the follow-up process of the Dharma Conference?
They no longer have the heart to think so much, after all, whether they can survive the next second is now a question.
Near the palace gate.
The Ghost Controller, who was being watched all the time, was already very close to the gate.
One meter, half a meter...
Cross the threshold.
"OK, successful?"
With both feet stepping out of the hall, they stepped firmly on the floor tiles outside the hall.
The slightly crazy ghost rider seemed to wake up, and his expression turned to one of surprise.
However.
Just when he took another step forward, trying to get away from this haunted place.
"thump."
In the sight of everyone in the hall, the man who left the hall suddenly softened, and then fell directly outside the door of the hall. The expression on his face even stayed at that moment of disbelief and surprise.
However, there was no trace of life in this joyful face anymore.
he died.
The number of dead was really more than half.
Only five of the twelve are still alive.
"Wha...what?"
The sudden death of the Ghost Controller made the three people stunned for a moment, as if their brains had been short-circuited.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Dead, dead?"
One person opened his mouth slightly and was stunned. He didn't understand why the ghost controller died suddenly.
"This... why?"
Jiang Hao was also silently observing the ghost master who left, but he did not expect that the ghost master would die in such a confused manner.
Likewise, there was no sign of a ghost attacking him. He just ran a step outside and then died.
He didn't even struggle, and even the expression on his face remained at the moment of joy after the disaster.
"That's where the paint came from."
Li Leping's eyes moved slightly. He had no sense of presence and had been ignored by everyone.
At this moment, his eyes were also looking at the dead ghost master.
The dead ghost master's face looked a little sallow.
However, the sallow color on his face is not the original color of this ghost rider's skin.
Although this kind of sallowness is very similar to the sallowness of malnourished skin, compared with the sallowness of the original color of the skin, this kind of sallowness is more like a kind of paint applied on the skin, a kind of camouflage formed by the original color of the skin.
As for the external color, only Li Leping could see this layer of waxy yellow that seemed a bit abrupt at this time.
Because he was deeply impressed by this color, which seemed to be similar to sallow skin.
Not long ago, he was attacked by an arm mixed with various strange colors, and even the ability to restart was disabled under the attack of this arm.
However, although he realized the key to the problem, others did not.
Because they don't have that close and dangerous contact experience.
The ghost controllers here basically look like they have barely breathed. Moreover, during this period of time, everyone has been fighting against the supernatural. Excessive consumption has made most of them look sallow and sick.
In addition, there was no light in this place, and it was even darker outside the palace. Therefore, except for Li Leping, who had fought against the paint arm and clearly noted the color on it, no one else noticed anything unusual about the corpse.
