C120 (1/2)
Being surrounded by so many ghosts caused Sun Yong to be extremely fearful. One or two of them were nothing in our eyes, and some were even less than twenty. However, that would be more than a hundred of them, and that would be taking our lives.
”These are all not wandering souls, how the f * ck did they come here, there are so many of them!” I shouted in fear, and upon closer inspection, we realized that these were not wandering souls that posed no threat at all, but rather the dense amount of wraiths within the Yin Qi, even evil spirits.
”That's the hospital over there, isn't it simple to get rid of all these?” Sun Yong's face darkened, she still missed out on this matter, all she wanted to do was to place the altar near the hospital, so it would be easier to operate, but she did not expect Zhong Yao to have the ability to counterattack, he never thought that she could actually control these ghosts to attack us. As this is the number one hospital in the province, people who die here everyday, who knows how many of them are harboring Resentment, so it wasn't strange for these ghosts to appear.
Just as we were thinking about it, those ghosts already launched an attack, the outer most was the yellow curtain, which had many Evil Repellent Runes on it. At the beginning, it was only used as a backup to scare the wraiths that were summoned, but I didn't expect it to come in handy this time, giving us enough time to prepare our defenses.
After the yellow curtain made up a circle around us, we used cinnabar and the other Evil Repellent Objects to temporarily hide. Sun Yong and I stood inside the circle together, and from time to time, we would shoot out Spiritual Talisman s and scatter a few ghosts.
”That won't do, I only have seven to eight Runes on me, we can rush out now,” I said to Sun Yong while holding the Runes in my hand. All this while, we had been consuming our Runes very quickly, we had no time to replenish them, and now, we were almost completely exhausted.
”Let's find a substitute human body here and see if it succeeds. If it fails, today will be a bloody battle to the end, let's go to the hospital,” Sun Yong said as he clenched his teeth. He did not have many Runes left, and most of the magical equipment were not suitable for use in this kind of situation.
After saying that, Sun Yong took off a few strands of his hair and placed it onto a puppet. He then wrote down the words' birth date 'on the puppet's back and used a secret technique, causing the puppet to quickly emit the same aura as Sun Yong.
After that, I made a substitute and placed it on top of the altar that hasn't been cleaned up. I also set up a Eight Trigrams Mirror to place under the golem. If they were to make the golem, the Eight Trigrams Mirror would attack and kill some of them when the time comes.
”Puchi” consecutively attacked. Under the price of twenty to thirty ghosts dissipating, the yellow curtain was completely destroyed, and the following Evil Repellent Object was also quickly weakening. The Yin Qi was almost like solid, ordinary Evil Repellent Objects were not enough, the best would be to set up a formation, but unfortunately, we did not have the magic tool or time to set up the formation.
”It's broken!” In less than a minute, the ring was broken and a large number of ghosts rushed towards us. Fortunately, about half of them were headed for the altar.
Sun Yong roared loudly, the Peach Wood Sword in his hands continued to wave, and then he ran downstairs.
”Puchi” After the few ghosts blocking the road were killed by Sun Yong, none of them dared to block our way anymore. However, they would not give up, and instead, continued to use underhanded methods such as concealing themselves continuously and using decoy.
”Bang!” When we arrived at the top of the roof, they closed the door ahead of us, wanting to trap us to death.
”Boom” Sun Yong was extremely fierce, he retreated a few steps and then fiercely rushed forward, actually kicking open the iron door. However, because of this, he was injured to the point that he couldn't even stand up anymore.
”Go, quickly!” Sun Yong was still shouting angrily.
I went up to support him, and the two fought while retreating. Besides the Peach Wood Sword s, I only had one Soulcatcher Bell, so I had to use up a lot of energy just to walk around.
”You can't take the elevator! If they destroy the elevator, we're dead for sure!” Sun Yong shouted loudly, instantly interrupting my train of thought of taking the elevator and running away.
This building is a 30-odd storey office building, it's so damn hard not to take the elevator or take the stairs. Just walking down is enough to tire us out, and with those ghosts blocking the way, we're dead meat.
But in any case, we had no choice but to take the stairs.
Inside the office, everyone was riding on the elevator, so the staircase was a very small and safe passage. It was already very difficult for Sun Yong and I to walk side by side, and with Sun Yong's injured leg, it would truly be difficult.
But as long as I stop, they will start charging towards us with their mouths wide open. Now, for example, they can only perform some tricks, and when we walk forward, we realised that there was no path ahead of us, and that there was only a bottomless abyss beneath our feet. However, Sun Yong and I ignored them and grinded our teeth as we walked forward, it was only an illusion.
After we went down to the tenth floor or so, Sun Yong and I did not have any strength left, the sweat on our heads was dripping down in big drops, Sun Yong's legs were hurting greatly, while my throat was in pain, my hands were sore, and my entire body was tired.
After a slight pause in my movements, a hand suddenly extended out from the wall where we were leaning on grabbed towards me. Seeing that, Sun Yong immediately raised his sword and hacked downwards, the hand quickly pulled back, causing Sun Yong's center of gravity to become unstable, he was just about to fall down, I immediately went to support him, but did not expect that my hand's strength was not sufficient, thus my center of gravity was suddenly unstable.
However, with this fall, we were in an even more miserable state. There was a bloody nose and a swollen face, and our heads were full of wounds. Furthermore, we had even lost the Soulcaster Bell in our hands.
