Quick Transmigration: I'm the Villain's Assistant to the Protagonist
Chapter 144 The Haunted House 5
At night, the lights inside the old house swayed violently in the raging wind, flickering on and off. With a "snap," the entire old house was plunged into inky darkness.
In the suffocating darkness, heavy footsteps could be heard faintly, each step like the slow pace of death itself, the dull sound striking the hearts of the three with each beat.
Chu Feng frowned, cold sweat beading on his forehead, and whispered, "Everyone, be careful!"
Lin Ruo swallowed hard, gripping the magical artifact in his hand even tighter.
Shen Ying's hands trembled slightly. She thought of the game's description, and it seemed that a terrifying evil spirit had appeared at this moment.
With a loud bang, the ground trembled, and a tall, malevolent demon appeared before everyone.
It stood in the darkness like a small mountain, more than two meters tall, its enormous size chilling.
Its face was so hideous, like a demon crawling out of the deepest part of hell, its twisted features seemingly sculpted by pain and hatred.
It emitted a nauseating stench, like the smell of a rotting corpse mixed with blood, which made them gag.
Its gaping maw was filled with sharp fangs, which gleamed with a chilling light in the darkness.
The demon, carrying a strong aura of death, pounced on the three of them. Its enormous body was surprisingly agile, and its speed was astonishing.
It opened its blood-red maw and let out a deafening roar, then its huge claws swung down fiercely at the three of them.
Each swing of its claws brought with it a nauseating, foul stench.
"Watch out!" Chu Feng shouted, and the three of them hurriedly dodged in all directions.
After regaining his footing, Chu Feng quickly raised the magic weapon, chanting incantations as the weapon instantly shone brightly.
He swung the weapon forcefully at the evil spirit, and the light emitted by the magical artifact shot towards the evil spirit like a sharp sword.
However, the magical artifact's attack only sparked a burst of sparks on the evil spirit, which merely swayed slightly before continuing its attack, clearly without suffering any real harm.
The three of them were desperately trying to hide in the old house.
Shen Ying ran wildly ahead, with only one thought in her mind—run!
The enormous figure of the demon followed closely, locking onto Shen Ying during the chase. It quickly caught up with her, raising its huge claws high, ready to strike her down.
The aura of death enveloped Shen Ying, and she could clearly feel the stench emanating from the claws.
However, just as the claws were about to strike, the demon suddenly stopped.
Its copper bell-like eyes shifted slightly, suddenly turning towards Lin Ruo and Chu Feng, who were running towards them from behind.
Lin Ruo and Chu Feng were extremely anxious when they saw Shen Ying being attacked, and instinctively ran to her aid.
Unexpectedly, the evil spirit suddenly turned around and attacked them.
Both of them were startled and quickly stopped in their tracks, their shoes scraping violently against the ground, making a screeching sound.
However, because they were running so fast, inertia caused them to slide forward a short distance.
The evil spirit lunged at the two of them with its gaping, blood-red maw.
Lin Ruo raised her peach wood sword and stabbed at the evil spirit, while Chu Feng also unleashed his magical weapon to attack the evil spirit.
Having narrowly escaped death, Shen Ying wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
She hurriedly pulled out a talisman and threw it forcefully at the evil spirit behind her.
The moment the talisman touched the evil spirit's body, it immediately crackled and popped, and the evil spirit let out a painful howl.
It turned around angrily and glared at Shen Ying. Shen Ying's hair stood on end instantly, and she instinctively wanted to run away. But the evil spirit only glared at her and continued to attack Lin Ruo and Chu Feng.
Although she didn't know what was going on, Shen Ying breathed a sigh of relief that the evil spirit didn't attack her.
Shen Ying continued to take out talismans and launch sneak attacks on the evil spirit from behind.
The evil spirit was distracted by the talisman and could not concentrate on dealing with Chu Feng and Lin Ruo.
Just after Shen Ying threw out another handful of talismans, the evil spirit roared and its huge claws sent Lin Ruo and Chu Feng flying, crashing into the wall behind them.
He suddenly turned around, his massive body hunched over, and glared at Shen Ying with an almost clenched-teeth look. Then he roared angrily at Shen Ying, and finally, like a proud little girl, he turned his head and ran into the darkness.
Shen Ying: ……
Just when the three thought they could finally breathe a sigh of relief after the evil spirit left, there was a sudden commotion in the backyard.
A group of white ghosts appeared out of nowhere.
These ghosts wandered aimlessly through the backyard, leaving a trail of frost in their wake and emanating a chilling aura.
Their cries sounded like the mournful wails of countless wronged souls in an endless abyss, sending chills down one's spine.
Shen Ying sighed silently in her heart. It had arrived. It was the White Ghost mentioned in the introduction. She felt her legs go weak.
Lin Ruo frowned, her eyes fixed warily on the ghosts.
The three of them hid behind the door, watching the backyard.
Suddenly, a chill ran down their spines, penetrating to their very bones, and all three of them shivered simultaneously.
The three of them instinctively looked behind them, their eyes widening in shock.
A large number of white ghosts had gathered behind me without my noticing.
They were like hungry jackals who had spotted their prey, gradually approaching them, and their figures quickly surrounded the three of them.
The ghost's mournful cries echoed in their ears, each sound like a sharp awl piercing their eardrums.
Shen Ying suddenly felt very irritable, and negative emotions surged in like a flood.
Unpleasant memories from the past played out in her mind like a slideshow, and the images of being cyberbullied were like a sharp blade, piercing her heart.
Her body began to tremble violently, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her face turned ashen.
Lin Ruo watched the white ghosts warily. Gradually, he became a little irritated. When he turned his head, he saw Shen Ying's pale face and asked nervously, "Shen Ying, what's wrong?"
Chu Feng, who was struggling with his emotions, was awakened by the voice. He quickly took out a calming talisman from his pocket and handed it to Lin Ruo and Shen Ying, saying, "Everyone, try to take deep breaths and focus your attention on your breathing."
Shen Ying and Lin Ruo took the calming talisman and, following Chu Feng's instructions, took several deep breaths, feeling somewhat better.
Seeing that the two were alright, Chu Feng took out his magic weapon. He chanted incantations and changed hand seals, sending faint rays of light towards the ghost.
However, the effect was not ideal. The ghosts only dispersed temporarily like smoke blown away by the wind, and then quickly gathered together again, their eerie cries growing louder.
Lin Ruo, wielding a peach wood sword, slashed fiercely at the white ghost. The ghost's body disintegrated the moment the blade touched it, but before Lin Ruo could even catch his breath, it quickly reassembled.
Lin Ruo couldn't help but complain in frustration, "What the hell are these white ghosts?"
Shen Ying didn't know what she was thinking. She suddenly took out a calming talisman and threw it at the white ghost inside, as if possessed.
After the calming talisman was applied to the white ghost, the white ghost suddenly stopped, then its ethereal and transparent body suddenly began to tremble, and finally let out a sigh that sounded like comfort and satisfaction, before disappearing from the spot.
Lin Ruo and Chu Feng stood aside, and after witnessing this scene, they couldn't help but widen their eyes, their faces filled with unbelievable surprise.
Lin Ruo gave Shen Ying a thumbs up and said, "Shen Ying! You're a true genius!"
Then, one after another, the calming talismans were thrown out, tracing paths through the air as they flew toward the white ghost, accompanied by sighs.
