The moment the evil spirit noticed Irin and Sayo, it gave up on the "food" at its feet and turned its head abruptly.
It aimed its gaze and sharp teeth at Irin and Sayo.
It seemed that … "it" felt that the new food in front of it was more tempting.
"Step back."
Irin lowered his head and instructed softly.
"Sir, let's, let's run! That's a ghost! It's impossible for a human to defeat a ghost! "
"Why?"
"Sayo heard that ghosts are immortal. Unless it's a legendary ghost hunter who has mastered a unique ghost killing technique, only then can a ghost be completely destroyed. Otherwise … ghosts are immortal."
Ghost hunter?
Irin held the dagger in front of him to defend against the evil spirit that was about to pounce on him. Without turning his head, he asked casually, "What's a ghost hunter?"
Sayo whispered, "Sir, have you not heard of it? Legend has it that there's a kind of person who wears a black cloak with the word 'kill' on the back of the cloak. They carry a Ghost Slaying Blade and wander in places where ghosts appear … Only ghost hunters can truly kill 'ghosts' … "
Suddenly, Sayo looked at Irin's back and said in a surprised tone, "Eh? Sir's clothes … are a bit similar to the ghost hunters in the legends. "
"Oh … is that so?"
Irin pondered for a moment. He didn't expect that he would play such a role in the plot.
Ghosts.
Ghost hunters.
While Irin was thinking and collecting information about the plot, the evil spirit in front of him who was grinding its teeth and revealing a fierce light finally couldn't help but pounce on Irin.
In an instant, the ghost's fingernails strangely extended a few centimeters and turned into sharp claws.
There wasn't the slightest bit of fanciful movements. She just stared straight at Yi Lin's eyeballs.
Irin turned sideways and his eyes flashed. The Blood Jasmine in his hand seemed to split the fog in front of him into two. With a 'chi' sound, the ghost's arm was cut off by Irin.
Puchi!
Black blood gushed out from the severed arm, but the ghost seemed to feel no pain at all. It let out a low growl from its throat, and its other hand turned into a sharp claw once again. It continued to attack Yi Lin relentlessly.
"No sense of reason …"
Irin once again dodged the evil spirit's attack, turned around and swung her blade again.
"There's no order to his attacks …"
Chi!
His other arm broke with a loud thud!
Irin chuckled.
"Let's try that …"
Irin's footsteps were nimble. Although she was only using the simplified version of the Dragon Steps from the Ming Dynasty, it was more than enough to deal with the mindless evil spirits.
While circling the evil spirit, Irin stared at the evil spirit's eyes without blinking, paying attention to the evil spirit's line of sight.
This ghost was very different from the illusory ghosts that were described in the ancient legends.
He could see it.
He could feel it.
It could be chopped.
He could fight.
He was good at bluffing.
They were not much different from the monsters in the game.
Irin, who had a lot of experience fighting monsters in the future, quickly understood the Ghost's methods.
To describe it in one sentence …
Nothing special.
In the fog, Irin silently activated [Shadow Stalker].
She happily circled the Ghost.
The Ghost had lost both of its arms and was bleeding black blood. Its attack method was even more monotonous. It only knew how to use its head to bite Irin.
However, the flesh on the Ghost's shoulders was wriggling. It seemed to be recovering at an extremely fast speed.
"Is it the type that can heal itself? Is it immortal? "
The moment the Ghost's line of sight turned over, Irin had a thought and canceled the effect of [Shadow Stalker]. In less than 0.5 seconds, Irin reactivated [Shadow Stalker]. She lowered her body and nimbly circled behind the Ghost's "blind spot".
However, the evil spirit seemed to have completely noticed Irin behind it. It bit at the spot where Irin deliberately left behind the "residual vision".
"The structure of the retina is similar to that of humans?"
The evil spirit that Sayo saw as choosing people to devour was being used by Irin to perform various "small experiments".
While analyzing in her mind, Irin's hands did not stop. With a flick of her wrist, Blood Jasmine was like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, easily cutting through the evil spirit's neck.
Hiss — —
A stream of black blood, like a small fountain, sprayed into the air from the wound on the Ghost's neck.
It was a spectacular sight.
Not far away, Sayo saw this scene. Her thin and weak body trembled slightly. She was so scared that she froze in place.
The evil spirit's "corpse" slowly fell down. Its ferocious face was buried in the ground. Its four limbs were twitching non-stop.
Sayo looked at Irin's back. Her eyes were full of shock. She stammered: "Sir, could it be that you, you, you are the legendary Ghost Hunter?"
Irin was silent.
Once again, she clenched the dark red dagger in her hand.
Because …
The fallen ghost stood up once again!
"Immortal … … indestructible?"
Irin thought about this sentence again.
In the Inner World, there was no such thing as "immortal" in principle.
This was impossible.
"That's just right … …" Irin took a breath. The smile on his face became more gentle: "Then let's do some in-depth research while we're at it."
… …
Sayo's expression was wooden as she looked ahead.
Her footsteps were involuntarily moving backward, little by little.
It was as if she wanted to escape from this place.
There was a drop of cold sweat on her forehead, slowly dripping down.
It had only been ten minutes since the Ghost's throat was cut and it stood up again.
But to Sayo, it felt as if a whole day and night had passed.
"Are all Ghost Hunters so scary?"
Sayo murmured in a low voice.
She watched Irin try all kinds of methods to "kill the Ghost".
She could even hear the words of this Ghost Hunter lingering in her ears. His tone was three parts surprise, three parts curiosity, three parts admiration, and one part interest.
"Oh? The wound has healed … … "
"The brain doesn't seem to be the center of action? It can still move after the brain was destroyed … … "
"The eyeball was destroyed, but it could still track my position … … It seems that 'Ghosts' are not creatures that only rely on sight."
"The heart is not a weakness … … Let's try a few more times."
"If the limbs are not completely cut off, is it possible to heal? It's quite troublesome."
"Will the limbs slowly grow back after a long time? This kind of monster is quite resistant to beatings. "
"… …"
In just a few minutes, Irin tried all kinds of methods and "killed" the man-eating evil Ghost 64 times.
Irin, who was a little obsessed with numbers, originally wanted to kill the Ghost 66 times.
She did not want to round it up, but it was also good to have an auspicious number.
Good luck, after all.
But she did not expect that after being killed 64 times by Irin, the Ghost would lie on the ground and refuse to get up.
Irin did not move its legs at first for the sake of convenience, so that it could stand up more smoothly.
The Ghost in front of her did not have any intelligence.
However, for some reason, after being killed 64 times by this horrifying ghost hunter with a smile on his face, it started to develop an emotion called "fear".
"You're putting me in a difficult position by showing this kind of expression!"
Irin shook off the black blood on the short knife, hesitating whether she should kill the Ghost two more times.
You said you were fierce, but Irin did not have any psychological burden when she was ruthless.
But this Ghost suddenly showed such a pitiful expression, which made Irin have the illusion that the roles of both sides were reversed.
Behind Irin.
Sayo's eyes were getting redder and redder.
As if she would cry at any time.
She was so scared that her legs could not close at all, and she was trembling.
This — —
Who was the real Ghost!
Were all Ghost Hunters so scary?!
Sayo stepped back, centimeter by centimeter.
Little by little.
At this moment.
Sayo's vision blurred.
The thick fog was torn apart by a figure.
There was a cold and hard touch on her neck.
A blood-red short knife was silently pressed against her neck.
It was pressed against the tender flesh of her neck.
"Hey, don't be in a hurry to leave, Xiao … Yi."
Irin whispered in Sayo's ear with a gentle tone.
