"A door?"
Chen Ge, who had followed the water ghost, did not expect to see a door inside the building. The door was dyed red, and the blood vessels that extended around it felt familiar to Chen Ge.
"It's not midnight yet. Even if someone pushed open a door here, it shouldn't have appeared now, right? Is this a trap specifically targeted at me? Is this a trap set up by the mastermind in Eastern Jiujiang? "
Chen Ge was no longer the simple toy designer that he used to be. Ever since he obtained the black phone, he would use a different way of thinking when he encountered problems.
Unable to make up his mind, Chen Ge did not dare get close to the door. Wen Wen's sister was just a monster from a two-star Trial Mission; she was nothing compared to the mastermind in Eastern Jiujiang.
Summoning Xu Yin and Bai Qiulin, having more ghosts around would give Chen Ge a sense of security.
Just as he was hesitating, the blood door started to shake. The blood vessels on the surface of the door started to bulge outward like something was trying to crawl out.
"There's something behind the door? It wants to force its way out? "
This was the first time that Chen Ge had encountered something like this, and he did not know what to do.
The bulge on the door became more obvious, and the blood vessels on the door started to move. They tangled together on the door like they were alive, and they morphed into thin chains.
Upon closer inspection, one would realize that the chains were carved with pained human faces, and each blood vessel represented a painful and despairing memory.
"How come this thing looks so familiar?" Chen Ge was reminded of his final battle with Doctor Gao at the underground morgue. The blood vessels controlled by the chairman of the Society of Strange Tales were similar to the blood vessels on the door. They were not just blood red; they were carved with human faces, and when one got close, one could hear the wails of living people.
It was not midnight, and there was an invisible force in the real world that was fighting against the blood vessels on the door.
It was not easy to force the door open at a time like this. The blood vessels were constantly being depleted, but the monster behind the door seemed to have gone mad. It did not care about the price it had to pay. The moment one blood vessel disappeared, another ten blood vessels would crawl out from behind the door. They entangled together, forming a chain that extended toward the other parts of the corridor. It seemed like it was trying to pull the door open from the outside.
"The guy inside the door could have waited until midnight to come out. Did he sense something and become so agitated?" The smell of burning permeated the building, and there was nothing unusual about it. The only difference from before is that I stopped at the door after entering the stairwell. Is it because the monster sensed my presence? Is it because of the title 'Specter's Favored'? "
Chen Ge narrowed his eyes. He did not think this was a conspiracy of the culprit in Eastern Jiujiang. Even the water ghost himself did not know that he would appear that night; this was a random occurrence.
"A burnt building, a blood door — this building fits the description of the Trial Mission given by the black phone. Based on what Doctor Chen said, my parents came here before they disappeared. Could it be that they had left a deep scar on the Specter behind the door, and now the Specter has sensed the same bloodline, so it has gone berserk? But that doesn't explain why the blood vessels on the door are the same as those from the Society of Strange Tales … "
Questions appeared in his mind, and Chen Ge gripped the hammer tightly. He was a brave man, and he slowly approached the door.
When he got close, the monster behind the door went berserk. Multiple chains pierced through the blood door, and the closed door was pushed open from the inside.
"Ah!"
Chen Ge heard a hysterical roar, and the thick scent of blood almost caused his sense of smell to go haywire.
Forcing his eyes open, Chen Ge looked through the gap in the door. His pupils instantly narrowed, and his heart skipped a beat.
"It's him?"
A face squeezed through the gap, and Chen Ge could not see it clearly. However, the pair of eyes that stood out from the rest gave Chen Ge a sense of familiarity.
Fingers tried to reach through the gap. The monster also saw Chen Ge, and the person before him gave him a strong sense of stimulation. He roared like a beast, and it seemed like he wanted to chew Chen Ge into pieces and swallow him whole.
Ten fingers reached through the blood door, and the gap widened. The pressure from the real world also increased.
The blood vessels on the door would disappear once they appeared, but the monster behind the door did not care. At that moment, the only thing in his eyes was Chen Ge.
Forcefully opening the door, the monster behind the door was under a lot of pressure, but even so, he had to kill Chen Ge.
His hands completely reached out from the door. His fingers were long and beautiful. If one only looked at his hands, one might mistake him for a pianist, but in reality, each of his fingers was stained with blood. It was hard to tell how much flesh had been torn from his hands.
"At least a Top Red Specter. Perhaps he's as powerful as Zhang Ya!" Chen Ge soon deduced the monster's power level, and he made the wisest decision — retreat.
However, just as he prepared to turn around, he felt a bone-chilling coldness around his waist. Then his legs started to go numb. His body felt like it had been tossed into an ice cave, and he slowly lost control of his body.
"What's going on? Xu Yin is right beside me. Who can attack me from this distance? "
His eyes turned, and Chen Ge saw strands of black hair falling on his shoulders. Someone was standing behind him, leaning against him.
Different from the burning red inside the door, the corridor appeared to be sealed in ice. It was so cold that one's heart was about to freeze.
The black hair silently reached out from Chen Ge's shadow. It avoided Chen Ge and pulled out all the chains around the door.
After losing the large amount of blood vessels, the monster behind the door could no longer fight against the invisible force in real life.
The blood vessels on the door started to decrease, but he was still unwilling to give up. The thing that he wanted was so close to him. He tried his best to reach his fingers out.
The surrounding black hair seemed to have been waiting for this chance. After removing the chains around the door, it started to gather its power. When the monster behind the door could no longer maintain the gap, all the black hair slammed into the door.
The blood door closed instantly, and the monster's four fingers were clamped off.
After they fell to the ground, they turned into drops of bright red blood.
Angry roars kept coming from behind the door. The black hair detached from Chen Ge's body and swept away all the blood droplets.
The blood door started to fade, and the voice behind the door started to fade. At that moment, Chen Ge did something that no one expected.
He rushed to the door and landed a heavy punch on it. Then he yelled into the door, "I'll be waiting for you in Eastern Jiujiang's Li Wan City!"
The monster behind the door heard his voice and seemed to remember something. It uttered a name as a reply.
The last drop of blood disappeared from the door. Chen Ge did not hear what the monster said.
"The gaze is similar to Doctor Gao, and the voice is similar as well, but the Doctor Gao in my memory is completely different from the monster behind the door."
The temperature in the building returned to normal like nothing had happened.
