Chapter 321 The Ghost Mistress’s ghost spirit reappears
The night is dark with few stars.
Bilgewater, this port city that was bustling with people during the day, fell into endless silence, surrounded by overwhelming black fog.
Near the slaughterhouse, the busy scene completely disappeared.
Only the surging darkness and the occasional shrill wail are left.
In the alley streets, the candle lights have long been extinguished, and the whining sea breeze and faint green light appear from time to time, blowing through the windows.
The cliffside of the underground river has become the hardest-hit area where black fog is raging.
Many Bilgewater people who had no time to avoid lost their breath of life under the erosion of the black fog, and lay quietly on the cold ground.
Their faces were extremely pale, leaving endless silence and despair.
In such a destructive scene, most of Bilgewater was completely merged into the black mist.
Even with the totem of Naga Kapoulos, it only serves to avoid ghosts and ghosts.
As for the wealthy areas in the upper city, except for some buildings dedicated to statues of gods, their situations are not much different.
Therefore, in the current dangerous situation, the taverns in Xiacheng District are like bright pearls in the dark night, attracting attention.
Woo! Woohoo!
Suddenly, bursts of weird and shrill roars came from the thick black fog.
These sounds pierced into the hearts of Yosip and the soldiers of the Reese Guard Corps like sharp knives, making their expressions solemn and tense.
In the dark field of vision, endless mist and shadows gathered together, like waves rushing towards us.
Groups of faint green light were mixed in the black mist, swaying like candlelight, slowly approaching.
Looking at the strange scene in front of them, Yosip and the soldiers of the Reser Guard Corps felt inexplicable fear.
They could vaguely see something coming from the depths of the black mist, causing the mist to tremble convulsively.
Looking closely, the so-called candlelight is clearly composed of ghosts and ghosts.
“Be careful!”
Drizzt said in a deep voice, the cards in his hand dancing at his fingertips, and bursts of magical energy surrounded him.
In the past few soul-eating nights, he relied on his own abilities to survive safely, and he had a certain understanding of the monsters in the black fog.
“These monsters are very difficult to deal with, and ordinary methods may not be enough.”
puff!
Before Drizzt finished speaking,
countless ghosts emerged from the black mist surrounding the tavern.
Their faces are twisted and ferocious, and their eyes flash with a green light, as if they are filled with endless resentment and curses.
After being stained by the black mist, the dim body became somewhat solidified, and a few ancient patterns were outlined.
The ghosts and ghosts surround the tavern, making weird laughter and crying, which makes people's scalp numb and frightening.
They stared at everyone in the tavern, their green eyes full of longing for the living.
Whoo! Whoops!
The ghosts and ghosts could no longer suppress their inner desire to eat people, and turned into gusts of evil wind, wildly attacking Drizzt, Graves and the others.
However, just when these ghosts and ghosts rushed within ten feet of the tavern, they made a sharp and sad wailing sound.
For Drizzt and the others, the relatively warm environment has become a taboo place for these ghosts and dead souls.
Under the surprised gazes of Drizzt and others.
After these ghosts and ghosts came into contact with the warm breath of the air, they seemed to have entered a furnace, and their bodies quickly melted.
The originally ferocious and terrifying face gradually blurred during the melting process, and finally turned into wisps of blue smoke.
Only a moment.
All the ghosts and ghosts that broke into the tavern disappeared.
Seeing this, Drizzt's pupils narrowed, and the corner of his eye fell on Huo Jixing, becoming increasingly frightened by his strength.
The flame patterns surrounding the tavern are not as simple as they appear.
Not only can it prevent the erosion of black mist, but it can also purify ghosts and ghosts that break in.
But the crisis in the tavern is not over yet.
The billowing black mist surges like the ocean under a storm, with turbulent waves that endlessly impact the flame patterns.
Driven by the power of darkness, a huge undead creature appeared in front of everyone on the wave.
Wearing an ancient and elegant black dress, it looks like a nobleman from an ancient forgotten era.
The long jet black hair falls to the ground, swaying gently with its movements.
When it lowered its eyes, a pale and resentful face attracted most people's attention.
The hollow eyes are filled with substantial black mist, hanging from the corners of the eyes like tears, and the evil spirit stares at the world of the living.
The atmosphere in the tavern instantly solidified, and everyone looked at the giant undead creature that suddenly appeared in front of them in horror.
Drizzt, Graves and the others clenched the weapons in their hands, staring at the creature vigilantly, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.
I saw undead creatures walking around the tavern, seemingly choosing their prey.
Finally, its green gaze fell on Huo Jixing, feeling a little wary.
"It's the Ghost Mistress!"
Drizzt seemed to remember something, his expression changed with shock, and he roared angrily.
“Don’t look at it, it can confuse the souls of the living.”
The Ghost Mistress is a terrifying undead creature active in the Shadow Island.
It is rumored that it was a powerful supernatural being during its lifetime. After its death, it was baptized by the black mist and turned into a ghost mistress.
The side of the body is always filled with evil spirits, and its mournful voice can frighten the dead and confuse the living.
But Drizzt’s reminder was a bit late after all.
Most of the people in the tavern had already stared at the Ghost Mistress when she appeared.
“Ahhh!”
The ghost mistress’s jaw opened to a point beyond which any joint could reach, and a mournful cry pierced her throat.
The black mist rose like a huge wave falling high, hitting the flame patterns and causing waves of tremors.
Affected by the sound, everyone unconsciously walked out of the tavern and walked towards the black mist.
Even Graves was no exception, holding the double-barreled shotgun tightly in his hand and walking towards the Ghost Mistress.
Huo Jixing looked at the ghost mistress walking in the black mist, feeling the bewitching power in the mournful voice.
He stretched out his right hand unhurriedly, his fingers gently slicing through the air, as if he was playing an invisible piece of music.
Buzz!
A red-gold Nanli Fire appeared out of thin air in front, turned into a flaming sword, and slashed straight at the Ghost Mistress.
The flaming sword exuded a fiery aura. Wherever it passed, the black mist seemed to be scorched by the blazing sun and quickly dissipated, purifying a large area.
When the ghost mistress saw the flaming sword coming, anger filled her empty eyes, as if she was angry that someone dared to take action against it.
So, it raised its hands, which were transformed into white bones, toward the flaming sword, preparing to break the blade.
Chichi!
Unfortunately, the red-gold Nanli Fire was not something it could withstand.
The moment the flaming sword came into contact with the bones of his hands, ten fingers were cut off directly.
The fingers stained with flames fell to the ground, silently corroding ten deep pits.
Immediately afterwards, the power of the flaming sword continued unabated and struck the ghost mistress, forcibly cutting her body into pieces.
The raging flames burned away the evil spirit, burned along the dress and body, and wrapped the ghost mistress in a sea of fire.
In the blink of an eye.
The figure of the Ghost Mistress completely disappeared in the fire of Nanli. Only a purified area was left, and the sound of mourning lingered in the air.
“I’m still a little uncomfortable with it, and I lack the weapons I need.”
Huo Jixing spoke in a low voice, seemingly dissatisfied with the results in front of him, and shook his head slightly.
Drizzt, who was behind him, heard this and became more and more horrified.
At the same time, he also felt that he had hugged an extraordinary big shot this time.
The moment the ghost mistress died, everyone who had been bewitched woke up.
“Damn, how did I get here.”
Graves looked at the black fog close at hand with a frightened expression.
The soldiers of Yosip and Reiser's garrison beside him also showed similar expressions.
After being burned by Nanli's fire, the billowing black mist seemed to have touched Ni Lin, becoming more and more restless.
Da da! Ta-ta! Ta-ta!
The sound of chaotic footsteps came from the black mist, like thousands of troops rushing towards them, with great momentum.
When Graves heard the sound, he frowned and stared at the billowing black mist.
Suddenly, a skull in the shape of a will-o'-the-wisp poked out of the darkness, with empty eye sockets and sharp teeth.
It rushed into the surrounding flame pattern area, and before it had time to react, it immediately turned into a pile of ashes.
But it seems like it’s just the beginning.
Behind it, more and more skeletons and ghosts appeared, rushing towards the tavern one after another.
What's even more horrifying is that there are countless mutilated corpses mixed inside.
From the style of their clothes, it can be seen that these are Bilgewater people who have recently died.
These former residents became soulless monsters when the black mist swept across.
They attack the flame patterns endlessly, intending to break through the impenetrable defense.
“Huh?”
Huo Jixing, who was standing on the roof of the tavern, seemed to have noticed something and let out a soft sigh.
The flame patterns surrounding it are trembling slightly, seeming to be unable to withstand the erosion of the black mist, shrinking little by little.
It may not seem obvious, but it is actually happening.
"There seems to be something wrong with these fogs, which can erode the power of fire."
Huo Jixing's eyes flickered, and the red-gold flames in his eyes became more intense, intending to understand the nature of the black fog.
Graves stared intently at the ghosts and skeletons coming in front of him, took a deep breath, raised his double-barreled shotgun, and pulled the trigger.
Boom!
A dull sound sounded, and the shotgun sprayed out hot fire.
The gunpowder-smelling shotgun blasted towards the bones and skeletons like a heavy rain, blowing them to pieces in an instant.
The ejected ammunition fragments and shock waves affected the nearby walking dead, causing them to suffer varying degrees of damage.
Seeing Graves' actions, Yosip immediately commanded the soldiers of the Reiser Guard Corps.
Relying on the defense of the flame patterns near the tavern, they began to massacre these undead creatures in an orderly manner.
After the Noxus Empire's Ace Legion was activated, a killing spree swept the streets.
The originally silent street now turned into a ruthless battlefield, filled with smoke and flames.
The tavern itself also turned into a war barrier at this moment, with a cold atmosphere rising from every corner.
Under the endless wave of black mist, Graves and others did not flinch at all, repelling the impact of waves of undead skeletons and reducing the pressure on the flame lines.
“Wait, something is wrong!”
Graves, who was excited to kill, raised his eyebrows slightly, and there was a trace of doubt in his high voice.
He noticed that the skeletons rushing towards him were somewhat familiar, as if they had been slaughtered before.
When Graves looked carefully, he saw familiar bullet marks on the skeleton's body.
"Damn, these undead can actually be reborn?"
Graves' exclamation attracted Yosip's attention.
Under observation, he did not see the ghosts he had destroyed come back to life.
But the soldiers of the Leiser Guard Corps under his command spoke out one after another, saying that they saw many skeletons and walking corpses that had just been killed.
This discovery made everyone present feel numb.
If the undead creature in front of you can really be reborn, then this battle will become extremely difficult.
Because they are always exhausted.
"Under the soul-eating night, the dark clouds reunite and the evil spirits rise again!"
Drizzt stepped in front of Graves, looked into the dark black mist, and condensed his voice Open your mouth.
“Our normal attacks cannot cause real fatal damage to these undead creatures.”
"Only extraordinary power can harm them, or even destroy the spirituality in the body."
Josip's expression changed, and he suddenly understood why he could not see the undead creatures he had hurt.
【Universal Card】!
Like an elegant magician, Drizzt turned his wrist and three cards appeared between his fingers.
He immediately threw it casually, fell into the black mist, and harvested the ghosts.
The magical energy contained in the card directly destroys the green glow in the ghost's body.
But after losing control, their bodies slowly merged into the black mist and became nutrients to heal the injured skeletons and walking dead.
Seeing this, Drizzt frowned and the cards in his hand flickered.
【Select cards】!
The cards dance at your fingertips, and the magical light of different colors reflects the black mist.
Click!
Drizzt selected a red card, concentrated his magic power, and threw it decisively at the black mist.
The red card broke through the air, like a bolt of lightning falling into the black fog.
As it fell, the surface of the card burned with blazing witchcraft flames, which was particularly eye-catching.
Boom!
The card shattered and magic swept over it.
The fiery witchcraft flames engulf nearby ghosts and ghosts, igniting them into fireballs.
Under the continuous impact, it accidentally caused small-scale horrific damage.
But Drizzt's face was not happy at all, but rather solemn.
Because his attack was like a drop in the bucket to the endless black fog in front of him, and could not pose a substantial threat at all.
Drizzt took a deep breath and vaguely understood why no one would fight against the undead creatures inside when the Night of Souls came.
You must know that these undead creatures in front of the tavern are just appetizers for Shadow Island.
Even the ghost mistress is not a main course, it can only be said to be an appetizer with a meaty taste.
“We can persevere!”
Drizzt joined the battle with firm eyes, and together we stopped these undead creatures from attacking the tavern.
With Huo Jixing here, they might be able to hold on until dawn.
At dawn, this soul-eating night will end!
