The flickering firelight illuminated the windbreak brightly.
The dry rock walls and sand are baked into the warmth, dispelling the coldness of the gloomy night.
The whine of the sea breeze, the sound of waves lapping on the beach, and the popping of branches in the fire all mixed into a sonata on the beach.
Lu Li was sitting in the innermost part of the windproof place. Clothes, two psychic guns, a stone tablet, amulets, sanity counter, canned pork, and a jar of water were all he had at the moment.
The bag watch disappeared. I don’t know if it fell while swimming to the island, or if it disappeared the moment I jumped off the boat.
Lu Li held the psychic gun, which was wrapped in a holster to block the negative effects, and cleaned the dirt on the surface bit by bit. This was the only thing he could do at the moment.
Next to the fire, the pot on the stones began to make a gurgling sound. Lu Li kept moving. After the water boiled for a minute, he took it off the fire, put it in the sand pit and covered it with stones.
He is not very thirsty now.
Occasionally add a piece of wood to the fire, and the time passes by.
Knock---------
An hour after the dark night arrived, a slow, continuous sound suddenly sounded from the warm windproof place, which was almost unnoticeable in the sonata.
Lu Li's black eyes narrowed slightly, he raised his eyes and stared into the void, holding the handle of the psychic gun in his palm.
Knock---------
After a long ten seconds, a shadow stretched from the gap above the lounge chair into the depression.
It was in the shape of a hand, but it was more slender and sharp. Its width was similar to that of a palm, but its length was nearly twice as long, like a stretched shadow.
In fact, he is indeed a shadow.
Evil spirit, the shadow of the stolen fire.
The shadow of its sharp claws moved against the surface of the object. It slid down from the lounge chair and clawed along the undulating sand towards the source of light - its target was the fire.
Lu Li did not pull out the psychic gun again. He grabbed the handle of the gun and hit the holster with it at the fire-stealing shadow that was reaching towards the fire.
Snap——
A dent was left in the sand, and the shadow of the stolen fire suddenly shrank back and disappeared into the darkness outside the lounge chair.
As the seeker said, the Shadow of the Stealing Fire is easy to deal with. As long as it is discovered before it extinguishes the flame, it will not cause any hidden danger.
This was the first time Lu Li had faced an evil spirit directly. He was glad that he had already known the evil spirit's rituals and that it was easy to deal with.
Knock---------
But the sanity counter hasn't gone away yet.
Half a minute later, the shadow of the fire thief came back, crawling over the couch and grabbing the fire just like the first time.
puff--
The shadow of the fire thief retreated into the darkness as if frightened.
This calmness lasted for half a minute, and the rich black claw tips emerged again.
The Fire Stealing Shadow tirelessly reappeared half a minute after each time it was shot back. Lu Li fought it off again and again, while paying attention to the interval between the counter sounds to prevent other evil spirits from appearing.
During this period, Lu Li threw out his psychic gun, trying to hurt the Shadow of the Fire Stealer, but it didn't work. Half a minute later, the Shadow of the Fire Thief climbed into the windproof place again.
This repeated stalemate lasted for more than ten minutes. Just when Lu Li repelled the Shadow of Pirate Fire again, thinking that it would invade endlessly, the rattling sound of the counter disappeared, and the calm was restored.
.
The Shadow of the Fire Stealer left.
Lu Li's body relaxed slightly, then straightened up in an instant.
He heard the sound of sand being stepped on on the beach outside the windbreak.
As the night falls, some hidden terrifying existences begin to awaken.
The slow moving sound became clearer from far to near, and finally stopped behind the recliner, carrying an indescribable and strange malice.
Lu Li stared at the space on the recliner, almost wanting to pull out the psychic gun.
He didn't take the initiative because the sanity counter had not moved yet.
Is it an illusion or——?
Just as this thought occurred, a line of writing appeared on the fabric of the lounge chair.
[Anna, when you receive this letter, it means that my situation is not good or I am dead]
This is the letter Lu Li left for Anna.
He gave the letter to Tesla. If he failed to return after three days, the letter would be sent to the detective agency.
Not many people knew the letter, and the only person who knew the content was Anna three days later—unless Tesla would open the letter.
But that's not possible.
The only person who knows the content of the letter is an omniscient and omnipotent being, or an omniscient and omnipotent entity that knows Lu Li, such as a certain "door".
The Shadow of the Stealing Fire had just left, and the "door" also came to join in the fun.
The handwriting faded, and new handwriting emerged, still the content of the letter.
[This incident is to investigate the birthplace of the hurricane, which is only 100 nautical miles away from Belfast. Receiving this letter means that my conclusion is almost correct: things in the deep sea are accelerating towards the land]
[In addition, the entire continent of Cultivated Garden has lost contact, and the situation has become very bad. But you are a ghost, so the situation will be slightly better than that of humans]
[I have written down your arrangements in this letter. You do not have to follow them, but it is best to refer to them more]
[Belfast is safe for the time being. This period may vary from a few months to a few years. During this period, you should improve your strength as much as possible. Be careful not to stay away from the detective agency. Your current strength is not enough to compete with the detective agency.
Demon Confrontation]
[The book in the drawer contains all my savings. If you need help, go to Hades. His attitude towards ghosts is not as firm as other exorcists. More importantly, he likes money. Don't tell him
About me, if he insists on asking, show him the money]
[You can trust Tesla, but just in case, don’t take the initiative to contact him. I’m not sure whether they will really show up, Remy Jimmy brother and sister. If they do come, you can tell them the truth and consider partnering with them.
.But before doing this, you have to make sure that their characters are the same as those I met in the story.】
[Remember not to come looking for me. If I am not dead, I will have to go back to look for you after I hear the news that you went to the deep sea to look for me. This is very troublesome. If you must look for me, come back after a month, or if you have a premonition
When something happens to me]
【That's it, good night, sweet dreams】
The last line of handwriting disappeared, and what Lu Li wrote ended here.
And now, the "Gate" has revealed its purpose for appearing this time.
Brand new content emerges on the recliner.
[An hour ago, Anna received the letter. She was worried about your safety. In order to have the strength to save you, she killed many people to increase her strength. Now she is about to be transformed into a wraith]
[Her strength increased too fast, which made her lose her original reason. If she becomes a wraith, she will lose most of her reason. Maybe she will not forget to come to the deep sea to save you, but she will kill many people on her way to the port.
, attracting the attention of exorcists]
[A wooden boat is parked on the beach. It will take you back to Belfast. Anna needs your help before things become irreversible]
