Chen Ge's voice seemed to be imbued with some kind of magic. Words became a weapon sharper than knives.
Inside the dark forest, the air was frozen, and it was suffocating.
Strands of black hair fell from the crown of the tree, and the veins on the ground were connected together, rising and falling according to a special pattern. The human head in the tree hole also saw the black shadow, and her white eyes flashed with confusion.
"Do not hesitate! Any hesitation will only waste the time we have to escape. Do you want to kill our hope with your own hands? "
Holding the nails with both hands, Chen Ge stood behind the shadow. "No matter what happens, I will be with you."
The shadow, which was originally one head shorter than Chen Ge, was now almost 3 meters tall. The resentment and anger that had been suppressed in its heart was triggered by Chen Ge. Its hands morphed into claws, and it howled like a beast.
The shadow that was pinned to the wall of Room 413 had great potential, far beyond Chen Ge's imagination. He became even more curious about the shadow's past.
"Everyone has hope, but if you want to turn your hope into reality, you can't rely on charity. Instead, you have to bet everything you have. Only by doing your best will you have a chance."
Chen Ge pointed at the human head in the tree hole. "Our hope lies there."
The shadow's body continued to grow. After Chen Ge said that, the face of the shadow cracked open. Black lines appeared on the black body, and then it charged forward.
The woman's scream echoed through the forest again. The grass on the ground pierced through the rotting skin, carrying with it an indescribable stench. They tried to stop the shadow.
At the same time, the black hair on the canopy curled toward Chen Ge like it had a life of its own.
"She's attacking both of us at the same time?" Thanks to the many times he had been chased by the Specters, Chen Ge's body was unusually agile. These were all treasures that he had gained from his life on the line.
"The girl can influence this whole place. Without killing her, it will be very difficult to leave this place." Even now, Chen Ge did not understand the principle behind the ghost hitting the wall, so he could only solve the problem from the root.
The battle between Specters was very intense, and once it started, most of the time, it would only stop when one side's soul was destroyed.
After the shadow expanded, it was indeed much stronger than before. However, it lacked fighting experience, and it was not as savage and crazy as Xu Yin, so it was soon stalled.
"This man has great potential, but he is too weak!"
Chen Ge knew that once the shadow was killed, he would not be able to survive. The veins on his arms bulged. He picked up the backpack and slammed it into the tree hole.
Before the backpack could get close, it was stopped by the hair on of of the tree, but that was enough to buy Chen Ge of it.
He gripped the nails with both hands and charged toward the tree hole.
"of the nails" The soil is soaked in her blood. If we slow down, we'll definitely die! "
Putting everything on the line, ignoring all the horror before him, Chen Ge's expression was twisted. He looked crazier than the shadow next to him.
"Soon, you will be, and of of of of of, Chen of of of blood,"
Chen Ge did not even consider retreating. He was extremely fast.
The girl sensed a threat from Chen Ge, so she diverted a portion of her power to stop him.
The weeds quickly withered, revealing the ground that looked like human skin.
"If you don't want to save me, then you can be buried here with me."
Cracks appeared on the ground, like crisscrossing scars. The temperature plummeted, as if something was crawling out of the cracks.
Chen Ge felt pain and numbness in his calf, and his feet gradually lost feeling. What crawled out from the crack seemed to be all kinds of insects.
He didn't look. Anything that would affect his judgment, he would temporarily ignore it.
At this moment, he only had eyes for the human head in the tree hole.
"I know it's hard for you, but every debt has its debtor. You didn't look for the person who hurt you, but instead you attacked an innocent person like me. Don't you think it's a little too much?"
Chen Ge's voice was very loud. He was not afraid of exposing his location. The most important thing now was to solve the Ghost Hits Wall and kill this female ghost that he could not communicate with.
Even though his legs were slowly losing feeling, he continued to move forward.
Stopping Chen Ge took a lot of the ghost's energy. The shadow saw the opportunity to break free and instantly appeared next to the tree hole.
The sharp claws reached into the hole. The shadow followed Chen Ge's request to pull out the human head, but when he applied force, the female head screamed.
As the head was pulled out, Chen Ge and the shadow realized that there were many veins that looked like the roots of a plant growing out from under the female head.
"What kind of monster is this?" This was the first time that Chen Ge had encountered such a baleful ghost, but he reacted faster than the shadow. "Break the veins on her neck! Quick! "
The female ghost's eyes were white, and the veins on her neck were connected to the trees. The ground was slowly collapsing like it was trying to drag the shadow underground.
"Quick! Break it! "
Chen Ge screamed. The shadow's situation was not looking good. He had failed to break the veins on the female ghost's neck, and his body was being entangled by more and more veins.
"What are you hesitating for?"
The ground sank. Chen Ge did not turn to run but used the last of his energy to lunge at the female ghost's head.
He did something crazy. His body rammed into the web of veins. After closing the distance, he stabbed the nail into the female ghost's eye socket!
"Quick!"
Only the white of the eye was pierced through, and the female ghost went berserk. The blood web swallowed Chen Ge and the shadow at the same time.
"There's no more time!"
At the moment of life and death, the shadow took the first step of transformation.
His body was illusory, but the two claws were almost tangible. The shadow gathered all his strength and pierced into the female ghost's head.
Blood splattered, and a shrill scream echoed in the night sky.
…
The surroundings slowly became clearer. The shadow had gone mad at the last moment. His Specter's instinct drove him to do many things that he had not done before.
The night breeze blew, and the shadow's body returned to normal. He raised his thin arms, and in his palms was a red heart that had been pulled out from the tree hole.
"You've done very well. We've crossed the first hurdle." Chen Ge looked at the shadow with a smile. He was lying in the mud, and there were many scratches on his body. Thankfully, his legs had regained the feeling. The worms that crawled out from the ground earlier were not real worms; they were probably the condensation of the female ghost's resentment.
"Before you consume this heart, I have one last question to ask you." Chen Ge struggled to stand up. "Have you experienced this before? How long did you sleep after consuming this thing?"
When a Specter consumed other Specters, they would go into hibernation, and the duration of hibernation depended on their power and the food they consumed.
The shadow had no idea what Chen Ge was talking about. He just wanted to consume the heart in his hand.
"Fine, looks like you really don't know anything. But that's fine, I can teach you slowly. "Chen Ge smiled. He signaled for the shadow to leave the forest.
