Chapter 1131 How the Shadow Is Born【5000 ask for a monthly ticket】
Lin Mo secretly handed the two amplifiers to Sister Yue and Xi Wenjun.
Then they separated to search for shadows in the library.
This is a fishing tactic.
Since Xiaoyu said that Shadow is very powerful and the other party has obtained her memory, the other party will definitely make a judgment based on her own strength in the memory.
If he continues to stay with Sister Yue and Xi Wenjun, Shadow will definitely be jealous and will not take action easily.
But if they separate, wouldn't there be a chance?
Moreover, Lin Mo asked Sister Yue and Xi Wenjun to act together while he acted alone.
Under normal circumstances, the shadow will definitely attack the one who is alone and weaker.
Obviously, the current Lin Mo fully meets this characteristic.
Acting alone and not very strong, Shadow would definitely seize the opportunity and choose to sneak attack Lin Mo as long as his brain was not twitching.
Lin Mo is good at fishing.
Especially using himself as bait. He has done this before, so he is very familiar with it.
He began to pretend to be searching in the library, seemingly vigilant, but in fact there were loopholes everywhere, just like a person who planted bids and sold out. He was clearly telling others to come and attack quickly. I can easily be attacked after passing this village.
This store no longer exists.
But after a while, the shadow didn't attack either.
Quite cautious.
Lin Mo was anxious, but he could only be patient and mutter something in a small voice, actually praying for the other party to take action quickly. I'm already like this. You can't expect me to tie myself up. It's too obvious.
The library of Leighton College looks like an old place. It has existed for at least hundreds of years, which can be seen from the architectural style here.
According to normal logic, the older a building is, the more likely it is to harbor dirt and evil.
Most of the weird stories are accompanied by this kind of old buildings. It seems that as long as they are old buildings and houses, they must be linked to those horrific things.
People will be afraid of them and have fear. Fear is an emotion, and as long as it is an emotion, it is contagious.
Therefore, in the real world, old buildings and old houses are at best accompanied by some insignificant ghost stories, which cannot be studied, but in the nightmare world, the situation is completely different.
When people are afraid of something, they feel that there must be a scary evil spirit in a certain house.
Then, there will be evil spirits in that house.
"I'm afraid not many people come to this library on weekdays."
Lin Mo couldn't catch any fish for a long time and was worried, but he knew that it was useless to be anxious, so he simply started exploring the library seriously.
The modern library is spacious, with bright windows and chairs and benches; but this place is similar to a cellar, small and dark, but because it is built upstairs, it is not damp.
There is a ghost in this place.
Lin Mo soon met one.
The other person hid under a collapsed bookshelf and nestled his whole body inside. No, his lower body was pressed by the collapsed bookshelf, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Lin Mo knelt down and looked at each other.
This is an evil spirit.
The body was squeezed by the bookshelf for a long time, causing the head to become flat and the skull to crack, exposing the flesh and blood inside, like a squeezed watermelon.
"What are you doing squatting here?"
Lin Mo asked curiously.
The evil spirit probably didn't expect that someone would actually talk to it, because for countless years in the past, anyone who saw it would scream in fear, then turn around and run away.
Without exception.
The evil spirit felt that he did not show his terrifying side.
It grinned ferociously and opened its head, revealing more flesh and blood. It even reached out and grabbed Lin Mo.
This trick has never worked well over and over again, scaring countless men and women to the point of peeing in the past.
The evil spirits take pleasure in this, otherwise it would be too boring to stay in such a dark place.
It thought that this time it would be the same as before, that the other person would be scared to death, and then it would experience that moment of happiness while laughing wildly, and then continue to be silent and enjoy loneliness.
Unexpectedly, the hand it extended was held by the other party.
The evil spirit was stunned.
"It's very uncomfortable to be pressed down there. Come on, I happen to have something to ask you, so I'll do you a favor."
Lin Mo grabbed the bottom of the bookshelf with his other hand and lifted it hard.
The voice of kacha kacha sounded.
The extremely heavy bookshelf was actually lifted up.
Then with a pull, the evil spirit was pulled out from underneath.
Half of this evil spirit's body was crushed, but no matter what, it is now out of its trap.
Even it itself can't believe it.
Ever since it was born, it has been buried under the collapsed bookshelf. I don’t know how many years have passed, but I didn’t expect that one day it would still come out.
Lin Mo knelt down and continued talking to the evil spirit.
"Looking at you, you must have been here for a long time, so you must be familiar with this place, right? Hey, I asked you something, please give me a reply."
Lin Mo reached out and knocked on the other person's cracked skull.
The evil spirit finally understood it completely at this moment.
The person in front of me is no ordinary person.
Seeing that I was not afraid at all, on the contrary, when I faced this person, I felt an extremely strong sense of oppression.
Like a mountain.
It is much heavier than the bookshelf that weighs it down.
The evil spirit immediately realized that if the other party wanted to, it could easily crush it to death.
Thinking of the other party's question just now, the evil spirit finally responded and said in a hoarse and twisted voice: "I am very familiar with this place."
"That's good!" Lin Mo nodded: "During this period, did anyone come to the library, or did something happen?"
"have!"
The evil spirit said that very few people come to this place on weekdays, which can be seen from the thick dust falling on the bookshelves and books.
But because few people come, the evil spirits will remember them very clearly if one comes.
"A few days ago, a woman came here. She was an evil spirit. I am the same, but she didn't seem to notice me, and I was too lazy to provoke her. But there is something else here that is eyeing her..."
"Shadow?" Lin Mo asked.
"Yes, it's a shadow." The evil spirit's two eyeballs were squeezed, and one of them protruded more than half, and one looked this way and the other looked that way.
Amidst the weirdness, there is also an inexplicable sense of joy.
Lin Mo asked the evil spirit to explain it carefully.
The evil spirit may have been suppressed under the bookshelf for too long. In addition, it knew that it could not offend Lin Mo, so any malicious and vicious emotions were suppressed at this time.
He told me what he knew honestly.
"I knew that the shadow attacked the female ghost and they had a fight. The female ghost thought she killed the shadow, but in fact the shadow couldn't be killed. It used some method to hide in the female ghost's body.
Then, the conversion was completed."
"What conversion?" Lin Mo asked with squinted eyes.
"That is, replacement, the shadow became a female ghost, and the female ghost became a shadow."
This situation is the same as what Lin Mo understands now.
It seems like this is the truth.
Now that Shadow has not taken the bait, Lin Mo simply needs to know more about the other party. As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will be victorious in any battle.
"You and Shadow are old neighbors, right?" Lin Mo asked.
The evil spirit said yes, they have known each other for a long, long time.
"Tell me about shadow."
"OK!"
The evil spirit said that Shadow was not born here in the first place.
"It's different from me. I'm a native here, and it's imported. I remember it was brought in by a female student. The female student had some mental problems. For a period of time, she would come here every day, and read the bookshelf over there.
of a book.”
Lin Mo asked the evil spirit to guide him. He wanted to see what book it was.
Soon, Lin Mo found it.
In an extremely secret corner, a terrifying book called "Shadow" was found.
Lin Mo was about to open it and read it, but the evil spirit stopped him and said that the female student created the shadow after reading this last time.
"Don't look at it. If you look at it, you will be like that female student."
Lin Mo asked what happened to the female student later.
"Dead, died miserably!"
Lin Mo just smiled after hearing this, and then opened the book without any scruples.
He probably understood what was going on.
After a female student at Leighton College secretly read this horror book, she developed some kind of fear and some kind of fantasy, and the fear created a 'shadow' in her imagination.
This is the prototype and birth process of shadow.
If so, then this book is a must-read.
Only by reading it can we fully understand the essence of shadow, and then we can find the weaknesses of shadow from these contents and exploit them.
Lin Mo didn't mind the dirt on the floor, so he sat directly on the floor, lit the candle next to him, and started reading.
The evil spirit also crawled over and curiously asked what was written on it.
"You want to hear it? OK, I'll read it to you!"
"Thanks!"
The evil spirit is very grateful.
It is indeed lonely. No one has ever chatted with it, and it is impossible for anyone to accompany it. Maybe occasionally someone will find it and then run away screaming.
As an evil spirit, it also wants to kill a few people to release the malice and resentment in its heart.
But it's not capable.
Because it was suppressed and unable to move, it actually didn't even kill a single person for such a long time.
Even if the evil spirit achieves this level of success, it will be a complete failure.
It knew it, so it felt very inferior. But today, it was treated like never before. Someone rescued it, and they didn't dislike it. They shook hands with it, chatted with it, and gave it stories in books.
.
The evil spirit has long wanted to see what is written in the books here, but has never had the chance.
Today, it came true.
Lin Mo didn't know these activities in the evil spirit's heart, so he read while watching.
This is also intentional.
The shadow must be observing him in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to make a move.
If Shadow saw that he was reading this book, and there was all the information about it, including its weaknesses, how could Shadow be indifferent?
Anyway, if Lin Mo were Shadow, he would definitely be unable to bear it and would definitely take action.
The opponent takes action and takes it directly.
Lin Mo has this confidence.
If the other party continues to be cowardly, Lin Mo will have no choice but to read the entire book, find out Shadow's weaknesses, and then plan the next step.
In short, no matter how you choose Lin Mo, there is a way.
Focus on .
This book "Shadow" is quite well written, the horror atmosphere is created very well, and the sense of terror created through layers of psychological suggestion is very advanced.
Of course, in Lin Mo's opinion, this thing is just a children's book, without any scare points.
But for other people, especially the female students here, it should be enough to scare them to sleep and create a terrible shadow in their hearts.
It tells the story of a demon disguised as a shadow and haunting an ordinary family. There are ghosts, religion and exorcism in it, especially the description of the 'shadow', which can be called a mortal's nightmare.
Anyone entangled by it will gradually be driven crazy by the shadow, and the shadow can take the form of the tortured person, and then turn the victim into a shadow.
That's probably what happened.
Of course, Lin Mo has not read some details yet. After all, it is a book and cannot be read word for word in one go.
At this moment, Lin Mo sensed something and raised the corners of his mouth.
At the same time, on the ceiling above Lin Mo's head, among the black masses, Xiaoyu, or a shadow, emerged from it and attacked Lin Mo while standing upside down.
It's very fast.
But Lin Mo is faster.
The Gourmet's Curse greatly improved Lin Mo's reaction, speed and strength.
When the shadow faced Lin Mo at this moment, just like Lin Mo when he saw Sophia for the first time, he was instantly suppressed.
Grab the opponent, throw him on his back first, then hold him down and insert the suppressor into the opponent's body.
Work together!
The suppressor has been adjusted to the highest setting, and coupled with Lin Mo's suppression, no matter what abilities this shadow has, it is impossible to escape at this moment.
In fact, this is also true.
Lin Mo was also very fast and used the suppressor in time. At this moment, half of the shadow's body was integrated into the surrounding black shadow, but because of the suppressor and being held by Lin Mo, the other half could not get in.
Is struggling desperately.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew by.
More than half of the surrounding candles were extinguished.
Lin Mo knew that the other party wanted to use the darkness to escape.
Of course this cannot allow the other party to succeed.
The flames in his hands were steaming, and Lin Mo said, "Come on, try putting it out again."
When Shadow saw this posture, his ferocious expression immediately softened, and now he looked pitiful, like a little girl who had been bullied.
Especially now it is exactly the same as Xiao Yu. In fact, this is Xiao Yu's body, which caused Lin Mo to lose consciousness for a moment.
But this method could not seduce Lin Mo.
He grabbed the shadow. At this time, Sister Yue and Xi Wenjun heard the noise and rushed over, dragging each other towards Xiaoyu who was in the shadow state over there.
Xiaoyu said that as long as we make contact, maybe we can change back.
For this reason, Lin Mo turned to the back, quickly looked up, and finally found a few words about this.
There is indeed a similar statement near the end.
The priest inside was replaced by a shadow attack, and he wrote a warning to the world that said this. As long as he comes into contact with the shadow again, this replacement can be broken.
After dragging the shadow over and reconnecting with Xiao Yu, he exhaled and all the light around him disappeared, and he was instantly plunged into darkness.
Lin Mo discovered that even the light of the flame in his hand was swallowed up.
But it lasted less than two seconds before the light reappeared.
Sister Yue and Xi Wenjun looked at the figures in the darkness in front of them curiously, and Lin Mo also looked expectantly. After all the darkness faded, Xiao Yu came over.
Then he skillfully got into Lin Mo's clothes.
Xiaoyu can't speak and doesn't need to speak.
One movement made Lin Mo understand that she was back.
It's the real her.
Even if that shadow has all of Xiaoyu's memories, it still can't be so skilled. Only the real Xiaoyu can.
It's settled now.
The shadow wanted to replace Xiao Yu, but was eventually swallowed by Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu's strength also improved to an epic level, which Lin Mo could feel.
Although this trip had some twists and turns, in the end, I still made a profit.
Lin Mo asked Xiao Yu if there was anything weird hidden here in Laiton Academy. Xiao Yu stretched out her little hand from her clothes and handed out a note.
It says: Yes.
Lin Mo continued to ask, knowing that there was another dean of Laiton College.
This dean is extremely powerful, but rarely appears. There is no enmity between them, so you can ignore it. After all, you walk on the bridge and I walk on the bridge.
Lin Mo asked Xiaoyu again how did you get here.
Xiaoyu continued to hand out notes.
She said she had forgotten and couldn't remember anything after hearing the bell. When she woke up, she had already arrived at Leighton College.
Then she discovered the library and met Shadow inside.
Apparently there are more secrets at Lyton Academy.
But Lin Mo had no desire to explore.
Previously, a student was kicked out of the class because he failed to score full marks in a class test. Lin Mo still remembers that scene.
It's very dangerous here, and even if you continue to explore, you may not get much benefit.
It's better to leave.
Xiaoyu also agrees.
At this time, Lin Mo remembered the evil spirit in the library, so he went over and asked it if it wanted to take you out with it.
The evil spirit thought carefully, shook his head, and said no.
It said that it was accustomed to staying in this place and was afraid that it would not adapt if it went out.
Lin Mo didn't force it.
People have human thoughts, and ghosts also have ghost aspirations.
When it has been in one place since the day it was born, it is indeed not easy for it to bravely take this step.
But the library door is not locked.
If that evil spirit figures it out one day or changes his mind, he can go out on his own.
Walking back along the original path, I also encountered some strange things on the way, such as teachers from the college and some scary students, but none of them stopped me.
At most, I would just look at it and then avoid it.
Now Lin Mo and the others are completely transformed compared to when they first entered the third-level dreamland, and everyone has been improved.
It can be said that I can now walk freely in the third-level dreamland. Even if I encounter some weird things here, I can easily deal with them. Although it is not as unscrupulous and rampant as when I was in the first-level dreamland, it is not much different.
Finding Xiao Yu is already the most important goal accomplished.
Originally, they came to the third level of dreams to deal with spiders.
But the spider sought death on its own and entered the third level of dreamland. In the end, it was defeated by Lin Mo and sealed in the realm, unable to come out again.
This is the ultimate goal and the result is achieved ahead of schedule.
Lin Mo knew that there was no need for him to stay in the third-level dreamland.
However, because of his promise to Father Phil and several unfinished experiments in the laboratory, Lin Mo could not just throw up his sleeves and leave immediately.
He is a very principled person. Once he makes a promise to someone, he must do it.
It’s just that the rest of life will be much easier.
No one expected that Lin Mo would spend the next few days in the third-floor dreamland quite leisurely. Except for ringing the bell, he spent most of his time in the laboratory.
That day, he was discussing some academic issues with Professor Green and Professor Wolf. Suddenly, he heard the bell ringing. This chapter has been completed!
