Chapter 216 Dream

"A...a vengeful ghost?!"

With his only remaining arm, Liu Kang struggled to support himself on the ground, trying to crawl backward as far away as possible from the terrifying ghost in front of him.

He wanted to use the supernatural powers within him to fight against the vengeful spirit in front of him, but suddenly he froze.

Because he suddenly realized that the vengeful spirit inside him seemed to have completely disappeared, and he could not sense it at all.

At this moment, he seemed to have become an ordinary person, an ordinary person with a missing arm, weak and powerless due to blood loss from the severed arm.

There was no stinging pain from the resurrection of the vengeful spirit inside my body, only the excruciating pain from my broken arm.

When did it disappear?
Liu Kang froze in terror, staring blankly at the vengeful ghost standing before him, its head bowed, its blood-stained, sharp iron claws fully extended.

He couldn't remember. He seemed to have subconsciously ignored the existence of the vengeful spirit within him, and hadn't even noticed when the stinging pain from the resurgence disappeared.

It wasn't until then, when he wanted to use the vengeful spirit's power, that he suddenly discovered that the vengeful spirit inside him had disappeared.

Without the influence of any vengeful ghosts, Liu Kang was experiencing a range of emotions, even trembling with fear, and his pants were gradually becoming wet.

Freddy, who had extended his iron claws, stopped abruptly after seeing the wet floor beneath Liu Kang.

It tilted its head, and a ferocious smile appeared on its face, which was covered with severe burns.

It seemed to be mocking, emitting a hoarse, grating laugh, like an old, worn-out bellows. The sound was forced out of a throat that seemed to have been scorched by fire, sending chills down one's spine.

Freddy bent down and extended his sharp, outstretched claws toward Liu Kang's face.

As the blood-stained iron claws grew larger in his eyes, Liu Kang screamed in terror, trying to attract Dai Yuan's attention downstairs and get him to come up and save him.

"No, no, Dai Yuan! Dai, uh."

But with a soft "pfft," Liu Kang's voice suddenly stopped.

A long trail of blood splattered onto the pink wallpaper in the room, slowly flowing down in long and short, gruesome streaks.

Dai Yuan, who was on the first floor, did not hear any noise from the second floor. Since Liu Kang went upstairs, not a sound had come out.

Liu Kang had only been upstairs for a short while when Dai Yuan, still not noticing anything amiss, continued searching the first floor, looking for anything strange hidden there.

Ding, ding, ding.

But just then, a strange metallic knocking sound came from upstairs, intermittent and eerie.

Dai Yuan frowned as he looked upstairs, a sense of unease rising in his heart. He called out:

"Liu Kang?"

No one answered, but the tapping continued, seemingly carrying some strange meaning.

"No, something happened!"

Receiving no response, Dai Yuan's expression changed. He abandoned all thoughts of going upstairs to find Liu Kang and immediately ran towards the door on the first floor.

The knocking from upstairs suddenly stopped.

Dai Yuan ran to the door and pulled it open, but his pupils contracted and he subconsciously took a step back.

Standing outside the door was a man wearing a red and green striped sweater and a black round hat, with severe burns on his face—no, a vengeful ghost!

The vengeful ghost grinned with a chilling, mocking smile, and then swept his hand away.

The sharp iron claws sliced ​​across Dai Yuan's fragile neck, and a long trail of blood splattered out.

Dai Yuan's eyes widened in disbelief as he clutched his bleeding neck and retreated back into the house.

He wanted to use supernatural powers, but was shocked to find that there was no vengeful ghost inside him.

Finally, his legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground, gradually falling silent. His eyes, wide open in death, were filled with terror and resentment. At the entrance to the town...

Xu Feng and Zhao Jie escaped from the straw field to the town one after the other.

As soon as they entered the town, the street lit up, and the two saw a vengeful ghost standing motionless on the street ahead, its skinless body covered in exposed scarlet flesh.

Further ahead, a dozen or so human skins lay scattered on the ground.

Liu Kang and Dai Yuan lay in human skin, with large patches of blood spreading beneath them.

An arm was severed, and his face was a bloody mess with five horrific claw marks that nearly severed his head.

The other head was separated from the body and rolled to the side, its eyes tightly closed, but its expression was furrowed, still showing signs of terror.

Seeing the two ghost tamers die tragically, Xu Feng and Zhao Jie were so shocked that they almost attacked the stitched-together vengeful ghost in front of them.

They discovered that the vengeful ghost remained standing still, so they stopped in time to avoid disturbing it.

The two stared blankly at the vengeful ghost, at the motionless human skin in front of it, and at the two ghost-controlling individuals who had died tragically.

"What's going on?!" Zhao Jie muttered.

Xu Feng didn't reply, but carefully shifted his feet to the side, avoiding the enemy for a distance, and then ran forward with his head down.

Zhao Jie's face darkened. After regaining his senses, he carefully avoided the pursuer and gave chase.

After they left, Lin Bei also fled into the town, and was equally startled by the scene.

But after Lin Bei discovered that the vengeful ghost was not moving, he did not rush to escape. Instead, he carefully observed the state of Liu Kang and the other man's deaths.

"Something's not right." Lin Bei frowned, thinking, "These injuries weren't inflicted by the vengeful ghost that controlled the human skin; the claw marks..."

After a brief observation, Lin Bei could only confirm that the two people had died from another vengeful ghost. He could not stay in this place where there might be two vengeful ghosts, so he started running forward.

But as soon as he took the first step, the surrounding scenery changed drastically.

Lin Bei's expression changed drastically as he realized he was suddenly in a burning factory.

The walls were covered in charred marks, and the equipment in the factory was still running and making thumping noises even in the flames.

Steam billows out from the cooling pipes, making the environment even hotter and more hazy.

zizi.

The sound of some kind of iron object sliding and rubbing against the wall echoed from another passage around the corner, slowly approaching and creating a great sense of oppression.

"Oh no, I've been attacked by a vengeful ghost! Where am I? Wait, this transformation seems a bit like my mirror world... no, it's not the same!"

Lin Bei's anxious mind raced, but he didn't have time to think much about it.

Because the sizzling friction sound was about to enter the passage where he was, such a creepy and eerie friction sound must be the sound of a vengeful ghost.

Lin Bei turned and ran, trying to escape the burning factory first.

His supernatural abilities are related to a special mirror world. In the past, he was often chased by vengeful ghosts in the mirror world and had a wealth of experience in escaping.

There was no attempt to fight back at this moment, since it was simply not worth it for humans to fight ghosts.

Run first, then fight if you can't escape.

Wang Liang walked along a street in the small town carrying a lantern, looking at the various buildings on both sides.

"This is a school, a middle school, so we can't tell anything. This is a hospital, which is normal for a small town. But we can't tell which movie ghost it's related to. Let's take another look."

Wang Liang continued walking forward, but suddenly he stopped and frowned.
