I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

"You guys, damn it!"

The voice it spoke seemed to come from its entire chest cavity, and except for the black eyes, the rest of its face was a mournful paleness.

This thing is gradually evolving.

"Give me back what's mine!"

Its voice sounded particularly angry, and its body, which was originally floating in the air, seemed to have become larger, blocking the outside of the main hall in a dark mass.

Pei Yan rested enough and slowly stood up again.

He kicked the sharp blade on the ground, which was covered with some unknown sticky liquid.

"I really doubt that its true form is a smelly octopus."

"Maybe you are right. After all, Longan County seemed to be close to the sea long ago."

Qin Wei shrugged her shoulders and glanced at the sharp blade with her mouth pursed. It seemed that she could imagine the taste of it.

Gu Zhaoxi squatted down to take a look, then reached out and touched it: "Tsk, I think you are right."

"Give me back what's mine!"

Being ignored obviously made it feel very annoyed, and its voice was even more deafening than before.

She turned her head and looked outside, kicking her hands on her knees in front of her chest like a rabbit, with a playful smile on her face.

"If you want it, just come and get it yourself. Why are you shouting?"

"Give it back to me! Give it back to me!"

The face darkened, dark energy came out of the eyes, and the whole body began to be filled with the breath of death.

Gu Chaoxi kicked the sharp blade on the ground in annoyance: "What a bluff!"

She stood up, looked back at the mountain god who always had a kind face, and tilted her head.

"Pei Yan, we can't beat that ugly thing outside, right?"

"Can't beat it."

Although the sharp blade could hurt it, Pei Yan's strength alone was not enough to shake the foundation of the evil mountain god.

The final result is probably to die tragically under its tentacles, right?

“Why doesn’t the good mountain god show up?”

Gu Chaoxi touched her chin, and a clue lingered in her mind, but she could not grasp that thing.

"Things like this require triggers."

Qin Wei explained: "It's just like the last plane that Pei Yan and I went to. The knights who could help us there needed us to awaken them with blood."

“The triggers are all different.”

As if worried that she would use this method, Pei Yan explained it.

She nodded without saying anything, her eyes fixed on the candles on the altar.

From the moment they entered the main hall, all their tensions were relieved, probably from the villagers' offerings to the good mountain god.

Their faith allows the good mountain god to protect them.

However, the evil mountain god can enter the mountain temple freely, which means that the effect of such protection is limited.

She turned her head and looked outside. The evil mountain god surrounded by black air was obviously even bigger than before.

Once its power gradually surpasses this blessing, it can enter the main temple without hesitation and wipe them out.

Unless they can awaken the good mountain god before it comes in.

Since the good mountain god was able to seal the evil mountain god in the past, he can do the same now.

"No clues at all?" Gu Chaoxi closed his eyes and began to recall what he had seen and heard since entering the plane.

However, when she finished thinking about it, there was nothing special.

"Weiwei, are there any customs in this place? Anything is fine."

Qin Wei was staring at the evil mountain god outside at this moment, and was a little confused by her question: "Customs?"

She lowered her head and thought for a while, then spoke uncertainly, "Apart from asking the mountain goddess for advice on funerals and weddings, it seems that there is not much else that the people here do... No, there is one more thing. They make lanterns during the New Year!"

Qin Wei looked at Gu Chaoxi affirmatively.

"Making lanterns?"

In her dream, the person whose face she couldn't see said these words to her!

Gu Zhaoxi excitedly held Qin Wei's hand, his eyes seemed to be shining: "Do you know what a lantern looks like?"

Qin Wei was a little stunned by her sudden action, but still blinked and explained.

"Although it is a flower lantern, the relevant materials I have read are more like the Kongming lanterns we know. They use this to pray."

"I see."

The villagers have always believed that the Mountain Goddess is a god, and that gods live in heaven. So if they want the gods to hear their wishes more clearly, they have to let their wishes fly.

She looked around. Although there were no corresponding materials in the mountain temple, the doors, windows and window papers around it could be used.

"Give it back to me! Give it back to me!"

The evil mountain god outside was still roaring, but Gu Chaoxi walked directly to a window and violently took it down.

"You want to make a Kongming lantern?"

Pei Yan understood what she meant by looking at her actions.

Gu Chaoxi didn't have time to turn around and look at him. He raised his hand and beckoned to Qin Wei: "Weiwei, come and help!"

"Pei Yan, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to hold on for a while, that thing is coming in soon."

She heard the sound of something tearing. The thing was getting bigger and bigger, and it was already affecting the virtual protective barrier of the main hall.

"Okay." Pei Yan responded and glanced at the sharp blade on the ground.

Although this thing is a bit dirty, it is still useful now.

He bent down and picked up the hilt of the sword with both hands, then stood at the door of the main hall half-dragging the blade, looking up and staring coldly at the pair of blackened eyes.

Humans are still too small in front of such a giant. He even felt the contempt in those eyes.

Gu Chaoxi simply tore off a piece of his trouser leg and tore it into strips of cloth.

I’m afraid I can’t make an exquisite Kongming lantern, so I can only make a simple version. Anyway, it’s a pious gesture.

Fortunately, when the mountain god temple was first built, it was considered exquisite, and the wood carvings on the windows were all made of relatively fine wood.

She and Qin Wei quickly created a rough outline, and it would be completed as long as they covered the entire piece of window paper.

The evil mountain god grew larger and larger, with almost half of his body pressing down on the main hall. His strange face fell down and was about to fall to the ground.

The empty hand suddenly rose up slowly and slapped towards the main hall.

Pei Yan gritted his teeth, picked up the sharp blade and chopped it hard towards the palm.

The moment the huge finger landed on the door frame, the sharp blade pierced into the palm of the hand.

"what!"

Like the cry of a crow, the evil mountain god retracted his hand, but the door frame also shattered.

Pei Yan took two steps back inside, and saw from the corner of his eye that Gu Chaoxi and Qin Wei had stood up with their things in their hands.

What flowed out of the palm of that thing's hand was not liquid, but several tiny tentacles gushed out, accompanied by thick mucus, which looked extremely disgusting.

Several tentacles hovered in the air and slowly retracted.

In just a moment, the palm of his hand returned to normal.

If it weren't for the mucus still hanging on the sharp blade, Pei Yan would almost doubt whether he had just chopped that damn thing.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

It roared angrily, its face became more and more distorted, and its eyes were erected, which made people tremble with fear.
