Li Youji stared blankly at the figure in front of him, wondering for a while whether he was hallucinating, otherwise how could his brother, who was supposed to be in Wuji City, appear here?
However, the touch that came from the other party's hand when she just took the umbrella was so real. It was not as cold as ordinary people, but it still gave her a feeling of peace of mind——
Even though she already knew that the person in front of her was not really her brother, this warm feeling never faded.
Bai Mo didn't care what Li Youji behind him was thinking, he just felt that this guy looked familiar - well, it should be the woman he saw in Wuji City during the day, she looked much younger and more beautiful than before.
But it doesn't mean much to him whether he's beautiful or not, and he didn't come here specifically for this guy. This encounter was purely coincidental.
"But this guy just called me brother...didn't he take out the fantasy bugs yet?"
An insignificant thought fleetingly passed through his mind. Bai Mo stared indifferently at the woman in white not far away. There was no expression on her face and no emotion could be read.
The heavy rain tonight was somewhat beyond his expectations. It came earlier than expected. Fortunately, it brought a lot of interesting things. Along the way, it was rare for him to meet such a guy who didn't run away when he saw him.
, feeling a little surprised.
This guy should have killed the designated prey quickly after appearing. He was very powerful. After that, he started wandering around aimlessly, looking for new prey. Li Youji was unlucky to bump into it at this time.
, so I look desperate...
This is Bai Mo's guess. The general situation should be similar to what he thought.
But he can't run just right, that's why he came here, and now that he has not fully recovered, if these guys really make up their mind to escape, he may not be able to catch up.
The heavy rain is still falling, with no sign of stopping, but for some reason, the rain on Baimo's side seems to be lighter, and even the sound of rain is almost inaudible.
Seeing Bai Mo appear, the woman in white across from her finally lost the ease and joy of playing with her prey at first. She suddenly retracted her hands and her body went into a defensive state as if instinctively, as if facing a formidable enemy.
At the same time, Chang Bei only felt an inexplicable lightness in his body. After a moment, he suddenly felt pain in his neck. He touched it subconsciously. Although the protective suit was not damaged, blood was already dripping on his neck, as if he had been hit by a sharp knife.
It looks like the blade has cut it.
If Bai Mo had arrived even a little later, once the woman's hand was completely on his head, maybe his head would have been removed like his previous companions.
He was lucky, Bai Mo's arrival saved his life.
Although the injury looked serious, fortunately it was just a superficial wound, and it was not difficult to stop the bleeding. Although Chang Bei was full of doubts, he was very aware of his current situation, and he dodged several times to distance himself from the woman in white.
The woman in white did not catch up.
All her attention seemed to be on Bai Mo, without even looking at herself. While Chang Bei breathed a sigh of relief, she couldn't help being shocked. This woman was very scary. She couldn't escape if she couldn't touch her. She used nightmares to
It's not an exaggeration to describe it, but for such a being to be afraid of this sudden man, it can only mean one thing...
This man can only be more terrifying than this woman in white!
Chang Bei had seen Bai Mo in Wuji Library before, but he was paying more attention to the tunnel at the time and didn't remember Bai Mo's appearance. He just felt vaguely familiar. Judging from You Ji's reaction, the two people seemed to know each other... …
This may be the best news tonight!
Thinking of this, Chang Bei suddenly felt paralyzed and had no strength to even stand.
While Chang Bei was thinking, Bai Mo and the woman in white were already fighting.
However, this confrontation took place in a place where Li Youji and Li Youji could not see each other at all. To outsiders, there was no anger between them, but more like they were looking at each other affectionately.
Li Youji couldn't see any movements from Bai Mo and the woman in white, but suddenly he felt a huge sense of oppression sweeping through his body. Heavy rain began to fly in all directions, falling one after another as if disturbed by invisible forces.
Bai Mo remained motionless, while the figure of the woman in white disappeared at some point - this seemed to be part of her ability, just like being able to pick off other people's heads from behind.
Li Youji was frightened for a while, fearing that this woman would suddenly appear behind Bai Mo and quietly take off his head.
Just as he was about to shout a reminder, his expression suddenly changed.
I saw a figure in white clothes quietly appearing in the puddle at Bai Mo's feet. It was the woman in white clothes. Although her face was completely obscured by her long hair, Li Youji could still feel the ferocity on her face and her pale hands. Then he lifted it up and actually came out of the water!
Li Youji suddenly understood why the other party was able to approach them without anyone noticing - just like a ghost in a horror story, this guy seemed to have the ability to shuttle back and forth in the mirror!
Tonight's heavy rain has formed many puddles on the ground, which is equivalent to creating countless mirrors, and this allows the woman in white to shuttle freely among them, and then quietly come behind everyone, making it impossible to prevent them.
Of course, this ability may be more than that simple, but there is only so much she can see.
Seeing Bai Mo standing motionless, Li Youji became anxious and shouted: "Be careful!"
However, Bai Mo still didn't react at all, as if he was being frozen.
Li Youji was stunned, and suddenly thought of his previous state of being unable to move or speak, and realized that the other party was probably also affected by the woman in white at this moment. He immediately stopped hesitating, gritted his teeth, and endured the discomfort to activate [Resonance] .
"puff!"
Almost as soon as the ability was activated, her expression suddenly became sluggish, a large mouthful of blood spurted out from her mouth, and her head hurt like it was being torn apart, making her look hideous——
【Resonance】Activation failed!
It's not that the ability cannot work on Bai Mo, but that the opponent's inner world is too stable, like a towering mountain, and is extremely exclusive. He almost instinctively fought back against the invasion of [Resonance], causing the ability to activate. The failure caused Li Youji to suffer severe backlash in his ability.
The essence of [Resonance] is to target a certain person and spread the influence exerted on the target, thereby interfering with the state of other people.
Just like the relationship between gears, the rotation of the main wheel can drive other gears to rotate. However, once a gear is stuck, forcibly turning the main wheel will not affect the gears, but will damage the main wheel itself.
No matter how it shines, the light of fireflies cannot interfere with the sun, and the evaporation of a drop of water cannot spread across the entire ocean.
If Li Youji's inner world is the light of fireflies, then Bai Mo's inner world is such a sun that can swallow everything!
This was a sight she had never seen before, and it was natural for her to be repulsed.
Faced with such a severe injury, Li Youji's face was obviously distorted, but a heartfelt smile appeared at the corner of his mouth——
"As Lord Yama said, my brother is indeed very strong. His spirit is like an abyss that cannot be pried into. Let alone peeking into it, even if you step into it a little, you may be swallowed up."
She could feel that if Bai Mo hadn't deliberately let her go, she might have died just now due to the backlash of her ability - it was an almost incomprehensible ability.
For such a terrifying spiritual will, Li Youji could not imagine that anything could restrain Bai Mo - it was not that the opponent was unable to act now, but that he was waiting for the opportunity to take action.
It's because I worry too much.
However, this was not the happiest thing for Li Youji. The reason why she smiled was entirely because of an accidental discovery——
[Resonance] This ability is very strong, and it is an ability that even several Yama lords praised. It has many wonderful uses, but unfortunately it can only be used on the same kind of people.
"Shura Martial God"
For example, if the enemy has only one non-human being and we are all humans, [Resonance] is very useless. It cannot be effective against the woman in white at all, and can only help teammates to provide support.
However, it is worth mentioning that although the [Resonance] she had just activated on Bai Mo in a hurry failed, the reason for the failure was not because she could not activate it, but because the ability backfired!
There is a huge difference between the two!
[Resonance] can only be used on the same kind, but she just successfully used it on Bai Mo. The meaning behind this is self-evident——
This existence from the restricted area, the S-level taboo sequence, the "unexplorable existence" mentioned by Lord Yama is not a monster, he is a human being, a living person!
Nothing can excite Li Youji more than this discovery!
She recalled Lord He Shang's expression when he secretly told her brother's identity not long ago, and the worry about his brother's final stance in his words, and her originally suppressed heart suddenly relaxed a lot——
Although I don’t know why my brother is in the taboo sequence, since he is also a human being, his position should be consistent with that of humans...
...right?
She thought uncertainly.
"Youji, how are you?"
At this moment, an anxious voice interrupted Li Youji's thoughts. It was Chang Bei who noticed her sudden vomiting of blood and hurried over to check.
Li Youji smiled bitterly and said: "I'm fine, I just overused my ability."
"That's good." Chang Bei breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked in a low voice, "Who is the man in front of me? He doesn't look like an ordinary person. Do you know him?"
"So we know each other."
"Really?"
"Well, it depends on whether he wants to know me." Li Youji sighed.
Chang Bei didn't know why, but he didn't ask any more questions. He thought about it and said seriously: "Should we go over and help him?"
Li Youji looked forward and saw that the woman in white in the puddle at Bai Mo's feet was not succeeding, but was constantly struggling. Her whole body was entangled with black tentacles, which were getting tighter and tighter - this seemed to be Bai Mo's method.
She felt relieved, shook her head and said, "No, we can't help."
These two guys seem to be fighting in the mirror. They don't even have room to interfere. There is no need to act randomly, just watch honestly.
Chang Bei stood in the rain for a while, then suddenly hit the ground hard with a hammer, clenched his fists and blamed himself: "It's all my fault, I can't do anything, not even help!"
"I can't blame you, you are not a combatant. If I am to blame, I can only blame me for choosing a bad route and encountering this monster."
Li Youji also thought of his teammates who died tragically. His heart suddenly sank, and his face was full of pain and sorrow.
"No, how can I blame you? This is something no one could have predicted..."
Chang Bei shook his head and simply stopped mentioning the matter. He quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, You Ji, what exactly did you want to remind us before?"
His eyes were full of cautious emotions.
Li Youji was silent for a moment and said: "Don't worry, this is actually just my guess - I want you to shout 'There is a woman here' to announce that the guy has been discovered."
Chang Bei was stunned for a moment, his eyes full of confusion.
Li Youji looked ahead and saw that the woman in white was entangled by the black tentacles at Bai Mo's feet and was completely unable to move. Bai Mo's victory was only a matter of time. It was like a nightmare to everyone, and it seemed that she could do nothing in front of him.
She felt a little complicated and asked Chang Bei: "Do you know about the A-level forbidden corpse paradise?"
"I've heard of some."
Chang Bei didn't know why Li Youji suddenly said this.
"I once participated in an exploration of the periphery of Corpse Paradise, so I have a relatively deep understanding of it..."
Li Youji suddenly remembered what Bai Mo said when he appeared, and became more confident in his guess. He continued, "The core rules of Corpse Paradise revolve around 'hide and seek'. Explorers and forbidden creatures will continue to play hide and seek games."
, within a limited time, once the forbidden creature cannot be found or is found by the forbidden creature, the explorer will die miserably."
Chang Bei was stunned, his eyes suddenly widened, and something seemed to jump out of his heart.
"In the Corpse Paradise, when creatures in the restricted area become hiding parties and appear within ten meters of us, if they cannot be found within three minutes, we will be massacred that is difficult to resist."
"And if we successfully discover them and shout out the discovery declaration of 'You are here', the restricted area creatures will disappear and hide again in the next place to continue the game - this process will continue until the capture party and hiding
The parties exchange, or until everyone among the explorers successfully declares discovery."
"In other words, no matter how many members of this team of explorers survive, we need to make several discovery declarations, otherwise we will always be entangled and the game will not end."
Hearing this, Chang Bei seemed to understand what Li Youji meant. He opened his mouth and said, "You mean... we saw that woman several times before and we were always playing hide and seek with her?"
He briefly recalled it. In this way, almost everyone had indeed made a declaration of discovery before, even the program for being trapped in the dungeon, except for the other person trapped in the dungeon.
declaration.
There was a missing declaration of discovery...so that's why they were killed?
He shook his head and couldn't help but ask: "But You Ji, this is not a restricted area. How could you think of the rules of Corpse Paradise?"
"No, Cheng said, the whole world is a restricted area during heavy rain, and this woman's appearance is somewhat similar to the restricted area creatures in the Corpse Paradise. Although most of the latter are dolls, they are almost all dressed in white. There is a kind of doll among them.
She looks a bit like this woman."
Li Youji looked sad as he recalled, "I heard that there is a cat-headed doll deep in the corpse paradise. Playing hide and seek with it is a dead end. That guy can truly kill people from a distance. Some people have seen an A-level transcendent with their own eyes.
My body was sliced open, but I couldn't see where my opponent was."
"Cat head doll..."
Chang Bei murmured sadly, "It's all my fault that I didn't understand what you meant as soon as possible."
"Why are you starting to blame yourself again? There's nothing you can do about it."
Li Youji patted his shoulder and comforted him, "And my guess may not be right. There are too many unknowns in this heavy rain. There is no point in continuing to think about it now. Look, brother... that guy will be there soon."
I’m going to kill that woman.”
Chang Bei turned his head, his eyes narrowed.
The puddle under Bai Mo's feet was pitch black, with no trace of white visible, as if there were countless shadows squirming, completely swallowing up the white-clothed figure.
In front of this man, the terrifying woman in white seemed to have no room for resistance.
