Hooray.
After confirming that they had caught one person, opposite, the mummy man who was still stranded in the corridor without moving came straight over and slowly floated towards Zhao Ping. If it were someone else who saw a mummy floating towards him, the result would be that his liver and gallbladder would be broken and his feces and urine would flow out. , but Zhao Ping is different, only he is different. Seeing that the struggle is fruitless, somehow, he who was full of fear just now miraculously calms down. He no longer screams or panics, but quickly calms down, just clenching his teeth. Staring at the mummy, watching the other person get closer to you, until the mummy floats in front of you!
As mentioned above, as the distance between the two parties continued to get closer, Zhao Ping could see the mummy clearly. For the first time, he saw the mummy face to face up close and personal. The skinny body, the cracked limbs, and the red and red body. Xue's eyes all showed, but there were differences, two extremely obvious differences.
First, compared to the time when he hid behind the pillar and peeped and observed, this time, because the distance between the two parties was too close, in addition to the above points, he also found that the mummy man was shrouded in red mist, and his whole body was covered in a blood-colored mist.
Through the video preview, Zhao Ping knew that the mummy man had been shrouded in fog. After killing and absorbing the soul of the blonde woman, a faint red mist suddenly appeared and wrapped him. This was true in the memory, but the problem was that the mummy was wrapped at the moment. The red mist was obviously too rich. It was no longer the light red that was not so obvious at first, but had evolved into a dark red that was visible to the naked eye!
As for the second difference...
"Tell me, where is Elaine?"
Unsurprisingly, just like he did with Daniel not long ago, although he caught the prey, the mummy man did not take action immediately and did not kill Zhao Ping immediately. Instead, he prioritized asking questions and asked something that neither Zhao Ping nor anyone else could answer. The problem, the core of the problem is still Elaine, but the voice of the mummy man has changed. It is no longer as slow and hoarse as it was at the beginning, but it is more real and closer to the human voice!
(The red mist covering the body gradually became thicker after killing people, and the slow and hoarse voice became concise and clear after killing people, and the bullet was blocked just now. Could it be...)
(Could it be that the Mummy Man can increase his strength by killing or even absorbing human soul corpses?).
Many times clues often come from active collection, but who would have thought that at this moment, Zhao Ping was forced to collect clues even though he was unwilling to collect them, and thus obtained key information by chance.
It's a pity that it's meaningless, completely meaningless, because he was caught, and being caught means death, which means 100% certainty of death. Whether it is the blond woman in the video or the security guard who was arrested, so far, anyone who has been mummified Anyone who catches a man will always end up dead!
To make a digression, Zhao Ping was still unwilling to give up when he had a premonition that death was approaching. The reason was that he still had props and several supernatural props that could counteract slugs, but he was unable to do so when the Mummy Man attacked too quickly. Use, in fact, before he could use the props, he was already restricted by the other party, and thus lost all possibilities of using the props.
"Where is Elaine?"
At the same time, seeing that the man in front of him was silent for a long time and frowned, the mummy man's expression turned cold and asked again. At the same time, this was also the last chance left by the mummy man to Zhao Ping. It is certain that as the questions are repeated, if Zhao Ping continues to remain silent Or if the answer is wrong, then there is only one result waiting for him, and that is death, torn apart like Daniel, who has long been a wreck on the ground, without a complete body!
Others understand this truth, so why doesn’t Zhao Ping understand it? But the problem is that he really doesn’t know Elaine? Never even heard of it.
so……
Watching the expression changes of the mummy, after hearing the impatience in the other person's tone, Zhao Ping ended his silence and immediately answered, giving a unique answer to the question.
……………
In a spacious castle, Zhao Ping encountered his biggest life-and-death crisis in history. Due to a misjudgment, his backhand did not come in handy. The few 'tools' he had reserved for himself did not work at all. Because he never dreamed that the other party would sacrifice the near and seek the far away, and actually set the target on himself! As a result, the result is...
He was caught and imprisoned in the air by an undead from hell. He was suspended in mid-air and unable to move.
The mummy man, no, it should be a mummy man. Ever since he saw the opponent's physical signs at close range, Zhao Ping has determined that the other party is a man, a strange man different from any conventional spirit body. But this is not the point. The point is that he is about to die. , and the direct evidence that he was about to die was that the mummy asked him a fatal question that he could never answer:
"Where is Elaine?"
At this moment, looking at the mummies so close to him, Zhao Ping was sweating coldly in mid-air, and his whole body was trembling. Because the mummies have similar human emotional thinking, he can both see the coldness of the other person's expression and hear the other person's tone of voice. There is no doubt that this is the last chance left by the mummy for himself. If he continues to remain silent and refuses to answer, he will die and be easily crushed into powder by the mummy like an ant. But the question is whether he can answer. Come out, don't say he can't answer it, no one in the whole world can answer it. Although he has already guessed that it is a woman's name from the word 'Elaine', it is a pity that it makes no sense unless he is given time to investigate and investigate. Who is Elaine, otherwise he will never be able to answer it. However, unfortunately, what he lacks at the moment is time, and the mummy can't give him time!
Having said that, Zhao Ping is Zhao Ping after all!
He has experienced strong winds and waves, and encountered numerous crises. At the same time, he is a smart man with an excellent IQ. When faced with a dead end, it is clear that the worm is right in front of him, and he is clearly extremely scared, but in reality Zhao Ping is surprisingly calm. , and the biggest benefit of being calm is that he can think and analyze problems. In other words, from the moment he heard about the mummy hawk problem, Zhao Ping's brain was already running, analyzing and even finding ways to escape at an unprecedented speed!
Five seconds later, just a second before the mummy's expression became colder and the five fingers of his right arm were about to move, Zhao Ping spoke. He nodded before the mummy made a move and gave a unique answer to the question:
"I know where Elaine is!"
Silence, silence, silence.
Perhaps he didn't expect that the other party actually gave a satisfactory answer. As soon as Zhao Ping finished speaking, the mummy man was stunned for a moment. Then he emphasized his tone as expected and asked in a slightly urgent tone: "Where is it?" "Tell me where Elaine is?" "I can tell you, but before that you must let me go!"
As if he saw what the other party was thinking, seeing the change in the mummy's expression, Zhao Ping set out conditions and asked the other party to let him go! It was obvious that he was testing, taking advantage of the opponent's eagerness to find him, trying to get out of trouble, and trying to get the mummy man to let go of him. His intention was simpler, that is, to escape. Although the mummy man's ability to lock in the air regardless of distance, even if he let go of himself, , he actually can't run away, but so what? Even if he can't run away, please don't forget that he still has props on him, as well as supernatural props that can counteract slugs! In other words, as long as he unties his restraints and returns to the ground, he can take the opportunity to take out the props. Once he sacrifices the props, he will have a high chance of repelling the mummies and escaping to heaven!
Extremely perfect plan, impeccable strategy, this is Zhao Ping, a veteran who can always think of a way at any time!
Zhao Ping thought about it, and he did so in reality. He took advantage of the mummy's newly emerged eagerness to set conditions and ask the other party to let go of him. The strategy was quite good, but...
What Zhao Ping didn't expect was that, faced with such a reasonable condition, the mummy remained unmoved! Instead, he repeated the question with an emphasis as if he had not heard it, and continued in a threatening tone: "Where is Elaine!?"
While issuing the threat, his fingers also contracted slightly!
"Woo!"
As the five fingers of the mummy shrank, in front of him, Zhao Ping, who had been suspended in mid-air and bound, suddenly changed his expression as if being squeezed by some force and let out a cry of pain! Under the squeeze of that invisible force, the man's body was in severe pain, his whole body was shaking, and even his bones made a faint creaking sound!
(Oops!)
Zhao Ping was horrified when he saw that the mummy ignored the conditions and only focused on forcing him. He never dreamed that the other party would not even have room for negotiation. Not only was there no room for negotiation, but instead he became angry after not getting the answer he wanted for a long time. The squeeze is a warning, warning him to answer quickly, otherwise he will only die! .
what does that mean?
It's very simple, it means that the mummy does not communicate with humans at all, and does not pay attention to any attachment conditions. The other party only wants the answer, and just wants to know where Elaine is!
Can……
I don’t know! ! !
Don't know how to answer? Although he can choose to lie, who can guarantee that the mummy will let him go after he answers? What if the mummy killed him instantly as soon as he answered, wouldn't he die faster?
(Damn it, what should I do? What should I do? Could it be that today is the day that I, Zhao Ping, die?).
Thinking of this, Zhao Ping panicked and was completely panicked. Although he was extremely intelligent and calm in situations, facing the absolutely unsolvable threat of death, the man had no choice but to do anything. The corners of his mouth twitched and his face turned pale. After all, there is a saying. Well, no matter how powerful the strategy is, it is just a joke in the face of absolutely powerful strength.
Time passed quietly in Zhao Ping's panic. In the end, the mummy lost his patience!
In a daze, Zhao Ping saw a scene where the mummy had a fierce look in its eyes, its blood-red pupils bursting with shooting intent. Along with it, there was a death sentence that represented death:
"You can die!"
As soon as the words fell, the next moment, the five fingers of the mummy shrank in a way that was visible to the naked eye. It shrank into a ball and was about to gather under the gaze of Zhao Ping's suddenly widened eyes! ! !
Cluck, cluck.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
As his fingers gathered together and continued to shrink, Zhao Ping shrank simultaneously in mid-air. With the crisp sounds of his bones one after another, the inhumanly severe pain just now enveloped his body again, covering his whole body in an even more intense way. Under the huge squeeze, The man screamed, and suddenly collapsed like a persimmon squeezed by the palm of his hand!
At this moment, Zhao Ping was in extreme pain, and the pain was so severe that he wanted to bite his tongue and commit suicide, but the too strong squeezing feeling forced him to just scream and wail, unable to close his mouth at all. There was no doubt that he would die. It's decided, as the worm's fingers continue to shrink, his only fate will be death, and he is destined to be kneaded into meat paste and die with no intact body! ! !
As for the specific time of death...
One second, just one second later, his bones will be broken due to the excessive force of the squeeze and he will die!
Can……
Feeling the huge force covering his whole body, just a second before Zhao Ping was about to break his bones and die, an accident happened. An accident that neither Zhao Ping nor the mummy had expected happened instantly.
Suddenly, the lights in the hall disappeared, and all the lights went out collectively. As the lights suddenly went out, the originally well-lit second floor and even the entire castle fell into darkness in an instant. At the same time, as soon as the environment turned dark, flying in the darkness The figure suddenly flew out, a pure white and slender figure!
At this moment, if you take a closer look, you will find that the figure is flying in the air, sprinting at a very high speed in an absolutely suspended manner. In addition to the body suspended in the air and flying rapidly, the figure also has disheveled hair and a distorted face, and the nails on the palms of the hands are proliferating like sharp thorns, which is extremely terrifying!
Getting back to the topic, due to the sudden change and the speed, which was as fast as a hurricane, in just half a second, the white figure had already reached the finish line and flew in front of the mummy before it could turn around. Then lightning flashed straight through it. Passed by, passing over the mummy’s body in an instant!
"Ah ah!"
Paired with a sharp roar, the moment the figure passed the mummy, a horrifying scene appeared:
brush!
The mummy was broken, the torso was broken on the spot, and the body was instantly split into two parts centered around the waist!
Plop.
Sure enough, as the body was cut into two pieces, the mummy that had just been suspended in the air became paralyzed, falling to the ground like a suddenly collapsed building. After falling to the ground, the exposed body was even more open. A large number of bugs suddenly came out. For a moment, countless black beetles that could make anyone's scalp numb spread all over the sky. They swarmed out of the gap in the body that was broken at the waist. There were too many, too many. God knows what was inside the dried corpse. Are there so many disgusting bugs? but……
The matter was not over yet. Perhaps he realized that the black insect was a great threat. On the opposite side, the white figure that seemed to be Li Qi did not stop or stop. Instead, it continued to move and shuttle. In fact, as soon as the mummy Qi fell to the ground, the figure flew into the air. He turned back and floated straight in front of the mummy, then stretched out his palm and aimed at the ground, aiming at the remains of the mummy on the ground! Then……
Boom!
It was a loud noise, as loud as a grenade explosion!
Because the explosion was so powerful, in addition to the smoke and dust billowing and impacting and spreading on the ground, the only strange thing was that although the flames rose violently from the explosion, the flames were not the usual red, but blue. It was a striking sight. A strange blue fire like a ghost fire!
Bah, bah bah, snap, snap.
Under the cover of blue fire, the sea of insects was burned miserably. Countless beetles that were crawling all over the ground just now were wrapped in blue fire and burned. They were burned all over the ground and rolled and crackled. Countless eardrum-penetrating explosions were heard in an instant. Ups and downs like firecrackers, the sea of insects was wiped out, and they were all burned to death by the strange blue fire. Not only that, because the temperature of the blue fire was extremely high, the flames not only burned the dense black insects to death, but also burned the mummies lying on the ground. , in just a few seconds, the mummy had melted in the blue fire with abnormal temperature, until it was reduced to ashes! ! !
The mummies were wiped out.
Just like that, he was quickly killed by the white figure with lightning speed and burned to ashes! .
At this moment, if you turn your eyes and look at the figure, you will see that the figure looks very much like someone. Although the facial features are already ferocious and look like Li Qi, if you look carefully and carefully, you can still vaguely see the shadow of someone...
Ethereal!
Yes, it is Kong Ling, the girl who left Zhao Ping and ran away alone not long ago!
As mentioned before, Kong Ling is very smart. She is a smart girl who is smarter than adults. She can see the situation clearly and can evaluate the pros and cons in a very short time. Although she witnessed Zhao Ping being arrested at that time, But she was completely unable to rescue him. After all, the mummy had the ability to kill people regardless of distance. Once she stopped, not only would she not be able to save Zhao Ping, but she would also be very likely to get in, so it was natural that she would After seeing the resemblance, Kong Ling did not leave rashly, but left Zhao Ping behind and ran away decisively. Of course, running away is running away, but running away does not mean abandoning teammates, nor does it mean giving up rescue, at least not giving up on teammates of Zhao Ping's level. !
To be honest, based on personality factors, if the person who was caught was a newcomer or other unimportant executor, Kong Ling would have run as far away as possible. There is no doubt that the girl's three views are not correct, even so bad that it can be called dark. In her personal thoughts, the waste has no rescue value, and it is natural to be killed. She will not take risks to save the waste no matter what, but Zhao Ping is different, even if she herself does not really like this despicable, insidious, silent and cold person. guy, but after all, she knew him well and knew the importance of Zhao Ping to the team. It can be said that if the despicable character of this person is excluded, the man with glasses is almost the most important existence after He Fei. Sometimes the man with glasses is indeed He can perform his duties on behalf of He Fei, and He Fei himself has always relied on him. In short, it can be understood that Zhao Ping cannot die. Once this person dies, it will actually be equivalent to cutting off a link between He Fei and the entire team. arm.
So, for the sake of the team, and even more for the sake of He Fei, whom he loved the most, Kong Ling made a decision and decided to do his best to rescue Zhao Ping!
As for how to rescue...
While running, Kong Ling did not run around blindly like William or Robert. Instead, he asked the two security guards where the power room was. He asked the two security guards where the power room was. William, who just ran wildly, did not hesitate. He answered casually, and then changed his direction. After learning the location of the power room, he suddenly turned around and ran straight to the power room.
No one knows why Kong Ling ran to the power supply room, but one thing was shown by the girl's actual actions, so that she showed it to her eyes in the most direct way, that is, as soon as she rushed into the power supply room, Kong Ling pulled her off without saying a word. Switch, then reached into his pocket and held something tightly, a long object similar to a thermometer.
Soul Thermometer!
This is an expensive mid-level prop, and it is also a prop that can only be used by Hollow. The specific function is not complicated. As long as the user holds the prop and concentrates, the user can then leave the body with his thoughts. The prop itself has no There is a limit on the number of times, but from the moment the soul leaves the body, the thermometer will automatically reduce the value. In other words, no matter how it is used, the user cannot let the value drop to the minimum, otherwise the user will be declared dead. As for why it is limited to only one person, Kong Ling. use? The reason is even simpler, that is because the human soul has always been fragile. Once it leaves the body, the soul immediately loses consciousness and cannot return. However, Kong Ling is different, but she is different. Benefiting from the increased soul strength of the Sky Eye, she can not only survive when the soul leaves the body, but she is also different. He retains his mind and travels freely after his body, and his soul has reached a level of metamorphosis comparable to that of Li Qi!
Obviously, in order to rescue Zhao Ping, Kong Ling risked his life. He was forced to use the soul thermometer even though he knew that using it would bring serious backlash. He tried to use his soul that was comparable to Li Qi to rescue Zhao Ping. As for why he was using it. Prioritize turning off all power in the castle before props? Turn off all lighting? The reason can be answered by saying that one's own family knows one's own affairs.
Since she had used a soul thermometer in the past, Kong Ling discovered a problem. She found that in places with sufficient light, her soul would be weakened. The specific feeling was indescribable. She always felt that she could not use her full strength, and even had many abilities that she could not use. intuition.
Because of this, and because the mummy was too powerful, Kong Ling had little control over it. She could not guarantee that she would use her suppressed soul to save Zhao Ping. Therefore, in order to increase the probability of success as much as possible, Kong Ling closed the castle in advance. Power supply, next...
In the darkness, ignoring the risk of backlash, she resolutely used the soul thermometer!
The next moment when Kong Ling collapsed on the ground like a dead man and lost all movement, another Kong Ling with a ferocious appearance appeared and his whole body was glowing. He instantly emerged from his body and suspended in the air. Not only that, because the environment was dark and there was no light, Kong Ling's whole body was filled with white light. The actual brightness was far higher than before. Then, maintaining the soul state, Kong Ling flew out of the room regardless of obstacles, and unexpectedly returned to the hall in the blink of an eye at an abnormal speed of 100 meters per second. Later, he attacked the mummy in a surprise attack, which was worthy of being ahead of the game. Zhao was rescued before he died.
As just described, due to the dimming of the light and the dim environment, Kong Ling's strength was brought into full play. In addition to the speed increase in her soul state, she also used an ability that shocked even herself. Driven by instinct, Kong Ling Without thinking, he subconsciously waved his arm to release his ability, and suddenly released a ball of nether blue fire that was different from normal flames!
Under the cover of blue fire, in addition to the dense sea of insects being burned out, even the mummy worms were burned to ashes! ! !
only……
