Remaining time:
[3 hours, 50 minutes]
The red lanterns in the bungalow area were hung up again.
In the dark night and the stormy weather, the light from the red lanterns could only reach a dozen meters around the bungalow.
Han Dong was observing and waiting on the second floor of the bungalow.
He was waiting for Edward Murray to be killed by the evil spirit … Then, he would enter the final step of the plan.
However, the plan did not go according to his plan.
In the storm.
A young man covered in oil limped to the front of the bungalow.
This person was Edward Murray.
Moreover, the steam prosthetic limb that he spent a lot of money to build and install seemed to have been damaged to a certain extent. It was not as flexible as before.
"Akaman is an evil spirit, and so are the people involved in the incident … No! Why are there two evil spirits? There's no such information in the intelligence. "
This major mistake put Edward in a desperate situation.
Edward mistakenly thought that the Possessed Chen Li was the one possessed by the evil spirit in this incident. Therefore, he did not suspect the other members of the team at all.
Of course, the mistake was also related to Han Dong to a certain extent.
Just as the team members split up, Han Dong ordered Chen Li to wear a red shirt and follow Edward with a kitchen knife in her hand.
This made Edward firmly believe that 'Chen Li is an evil spirit'.
Therefore, when he met Akaman later, he completely let down his guard.
It was already incredible that he did not die.
After all, bald Derion, who was a martial artist who wielded sledgehammers in the factory, disappeared when he encountered an evil spirit when he was completely alert. He could not even make a sound.
Edward Murray, on the other hand, used some method to escape from the 'certain death' situation.
He even escaped all the way to the bungalow area.
He stared at the bungalow where the lanterns were hung up again.
In addition to the system notification he received, "The number of survivors in the team is 3," which included the evil spirit Akaman … It meant that only Edward and one other person were still alive.
Edward was a rather meticulous person. His brain spun quickly as he recalled some of the details of his experiences over the past few days.
At this moment, someone's words echoed in Edward's mind.
"My name is Warren Nicholas … I'm born with poor health, so I stay at home with nothing to do. However, when I'm bored, I have a certain understanding of linguistics and should be able to act as a translator. "
"Captain … I'm not feeling well."
"Captain, I need to rest."
"Then let's split up like this … Miss Akaman and I will be on the same team."
The thin and weak young man, Warren Nicholas, who would stop to catch his breath after walking for a short distance, appeared in Edward's mind.
The position of "Nicholas".
From the very beginning, Edward had treated Nicholas as a translation tool that he did not have to worry about. With Nicholas' physical fitness, it was impossible for him to survive.
It was Edward's plan to leave Nicholas at the end as a tool to buy time.
However, Edward was completely wrong … A person's body was thin and weak, but it didn't mean that he had lost the chance to live.
Monica was dead and Akaman was a hidden evil spirit.
Facing the bungalow with red lanterns hanging high.
Edward's "sunny" and "friendly" side was gone as he revealed his ferocious side.
"Brother Nicholas, you're really unkind!
Considering your weak body, I let you rest in your room every day. I led the team to complete all the basic preparations … but in the end, you actually plotted against me.
You want to become a returnee with your body?
You'll die sooner or later … You might as well be my stepping stone. "
However, in the face of Edward's angry roars and mockery, Han Dong did not appear.
Instead, there was only a red-dressed woman holding a baby toy in one hand and a kitchen knife in her right. She slowly walked down the corridor on the second floor and returned to Room 6, which belonged to her.
Edward was sweating profusely at the sight of this strange scene.
Up to now, he was still unable to determine if Chen Li was a human or a ghost.
At the same time.
On the muddy mountain road, an evil spirit in a crawling form was slowly approaching the bungalow.
However, something was wrong with the evil spirit. Its movements were slower than before.
Its face was injured, as though it had been cut by some sharp weapon and burned at high temperatures. As a result, the corners of its mouth were completely cracked and pitch-black. It was extremely terrifying.
A thin tongue was sticking out of its charred mouth. One could vaguely make out a non-standard British pronunciation.
"This person … is indeed quite capable! It hurts, just like when my father used a branding iron on me. However, this feeling is really nostalgic. "
…
It wasn't certain death.
Edward Murray learned from the elders who had passed through the destiny space that no matter how dangerous the corresponding events in the destiny space were, there were still ways to survive.
One of the ways to survive was "restriction."
The other way to survive was the weakness of the dangerous creature itself. Once it could reveal or discern its weakness, it could force the other party to retreat to a certain extent and seize the opportunity to escape.
Most evil spirits were afraid of fire. This was also the information that Edward had bought … However, there were a few exceptions that were not only not afraid of fire, but could also absorb fire.
If he encountered the latter, Edward would definitely be dead.
However, under normal circumstances, his luck wouldn't be too bad.
Edward's steam-powered prosthetic limb could not only be powered by steam, but it could also greatly increase his strength and punching speed.
It was also equipped with an internal combustion device and small nozzles.
It could spit fire.
That's right … This was one of Edward's trump cards.
If he couldn't control the "time problem," he would need to use this trump card when the evil spirit found him.
However, due to the expensive price of the built-in flamethrower, Edward could only implant an ordinary one with a smaller capacity. It had already completely exhausted its fuel in the head-on confrontation with the evil spirit.
Even the internal combustion pipe was damaged. Even if he had time to replenish the fuel, he couldn't continue to spit fire.
Edward, who was standing in front of the bungalow, tried his best to remain calm … to think and think of a way to break out of this situation.
"There's only one way for me to survive … find Nicholas and kill him directly!
Now I can be 100% sure that Akaman is an evil spirit. However, I can't be completely sure whether [Chen Li] is an evil spirit or not.
A novice event, even if it's a four-star event, it's absolutely impossible for two evil spirits to appear! Chen Li, this special event character, has a high probability of receiving instructions from Nicholas to pretend to be an evil spirit to mislead me.
It must be so!
All of this is Nicholas's conspiracy!
This dirty and cunning rat … Where is he hiding? "
Edward was really talented and qualified to survive … To be able to calmly analyze at this juncture, he could be considered 'excellent.' Moreover, he was well prepared.
Unfortunately, he had already made a big mistake.
…
Just as Edward began to search the bungalow, Han Dong was sitting on the bed on the second floor. His ten fingers intersected into a triangle as he pondered.
"Edward can actually survive a head-on confrontation with an evil spirit … As expected, encountering an 'evil spirit' doesn't necessarily mean one will die.
There's no other way. Since Edward didn't die, I can only change the plan at the last minute. "
