Chen Ge had found many ghost stories about White Dragon Cave Tunnel online, and most of them mentioned this waving woman.
They described the woman as a scary spirit, and if one ran into her, something bad would happen.
Chen Ge was not in a good situation. There was a spider-like shadow crawling above his head, footsteps coming from less than one meter behind him, and not far ahead of him was the woman in the red dress waving at him.
In this situation, he was under unimaginable pressure.
Continuing to move forward, Chen Ge whispered his name and counted his steps as he walked past the woman in red who had her head lowered.
He ignored the waving woman, and his expression did not change. It was like he did not see her.
Different from the calmness that Chen Ge showed, the white cat in his arms kept whimpering as if warning Chen Ge not to go any further.
When he took the thirtieth step, Chen Ge turned his head slightly to look to his side.
The woman in the red dress did not give up. She stuck close to the left wall of the tunnel and followed him.
The two walked side by side in the tunnel. Theoretically speaking, they would not affect each other, but Chen Ge felt like the distance between him and the woman was getting closer and closer.
"Most Specters stay in this world because of their lingering spirit. What happened to this Specter when she was alive? Why would she attack the person who saved her? Was she killed by the driver who drove her when she was hitchhiking? "
With that thought in mind, Chen Ge turned to look at the woman.
She was wearing a normal red dress, and her legs were covered in wounds and bruises. One of her white sandals was missing, and the skin that was exposed was poked with thorns from certain plants.
"A Red Specter?" Chen Ge was not sure of his own judgment. "I'm just doing a nightmare mission. I won't run into a Red Specter, will I?"
With the title of Specter's Favored, Chen Ge's understanding of himself was getting blurry.
"Ignore her. I'll finish the forty-four steps first. If there's an accident, I'll just need to run out."
This tunnel that had been sealed for many years, because of Chen Ge's entry, the foul things inside started to awaken. Pairs of eyes in the darkness stared at him.
Repeating the same action mechanically, Chen Ge felt as if his legs were frozen, and every step was strenuous.
"Chen Ge …"
When he said his name, his voice was not loud, but there was an echo. It felt like there was another version of himself standing on the other side of the tunnel.
"This should be the 34th time."
Chen Ge silently counted in his mind. He had to be mentally prepared before he shouted out the forty-fourth time.
Lifting his foot, Chen Ge was about to shout the 35th time, but before he could open his mouth, a woman's voice rang out beside him.
I can't hear it clearly, but it seems to be a female ghost!
His body was a little stiff. Chen Ge glanced at the left side of the tunnel with the corner of his eyes.
The dirty hair covered her face. The woman studied Chen Ge through the gap between the hair. Her eyes were hidden under the hair, like two dark holes.
The lips that were covered in small wounds opened and closed. The woman's throat felt like someone had shoved a wooden stick into it. Her voice was very unique. Every time she spoke, it sounded like she was exhaling.
"What is she saying?"
Chen Ge's own rhythm was disrupted. His feet landed, and just as he was about to speak, the woman not far away spoke again.
This time, Chen Ge heard it clearly. The woman was calling his name.
"Chen Ge …"
His name being called by a female ghost that he suspected to be a Red Specter caused cold sweat to seep out of Chen Ge's forehead. If it was just a normal ghost, he would not have been so nervous, but the main reason was because the woman was wearing a Red Specter.
Chen Ge ignored the woman and continued to move forward. He could sense more things closing in on him in the darkness.
He felt like he had fallen into the deep sea alone. Who knew how many scary monsters were hiding in the darkness around him?
His heart raced, but Chen Ge did not slow down. His remaining rationality told him that the black phone would not give him a suicide mission.
The difficulty of the Nightmare Mission was high, but it did not mean that there was no way out.
"There have been so many car accidents in this tunnel, so there must be many evil things here, but other than this woman, there are no other ghosts. This is very strange."
The woman next to Chen Ge glanced at him. Just like what the drivers said online, the woman was slowly approaching him.
"Based on what the drivers said, the ghost will eventually lean against the window and press her face against the glass. I'm not driving. If I keep ignoring this lunatic, will she stick right in front of my face? "
Chen Ge missed the Bone Cracker Hammer, and he wiped away the cold sweat on his palms.
The woman in the Red Specter slowly moved toward Chen Ge. Her speed matched Chen Ge's. When Chen Ge increased his speed, so did she. When Chen Ge stopped, she stood at the other side of the tunnel and looked at Chen Ge.
"Just a few more steps, but the problem is, it's easy to get in, but it's hard to get out."
When he first entered the tunnel, Chen Ge could only feel the chill before him, but ten meters into the tunnel, he was already surrounded by the chill. Even the light in his hand did not give him any sense of security.
"The exit has probably been cut off. I still have no idea what is following me. If I turn back, I might see something scarier."
Pebbles kept falling from above him. The large shadow that looked like a spider extended its limbs without fear. It kept following Chen Ge like it had already treated Chen Ge as its prey.
"Are all Nightmare Missions so difficult?" Facing multiple Specters without any help was a bit too much for Chen Ge to handle. "Have I missed out on something important?"
He moved his gaze back to the woman next to him. He studied her closely, and when he did, the woman's head suddenly caved in like it was rammed into by something.
Her whole face changed shape, and her eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets. Even her black hair collapsed.
Chen Ge resisted the urge to curse. He forced himself to stop provoking the woman and obediently took the 40th step.
"Only four more steps left."
The woman's body on the left side of the tunnel was still changing. Chen Ge did not turn around to look, but the sound of her body slowly changing crawled into his ears.
"It's just a normal collision. She wouldn't have ended up like this. This woman must have been through a lot of pain when she was alive."
Chen Ge's hands were shaking, and the pressure on his body increased.
"I'm here, please save me." The woman's voice became scarier, and she got closer and closer to Chen Ge. "I'm here, I'm beside you, I'm here!"
The woman begged Chen Ge for help, but Chen Ge did not dare lend her a helping hand. If he helped her, something bad would happen inside the tunnel, but if he did not help her, he would not be able to leave this place alive.
