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! ! !
……………
Relying on her own soul strength that was comparable to that of Li Qi, combined with the amplification of darkness, Kong Ling finally eliminated the mummy Qi with an out-of-body attitude. Although it was caused by an unexpected sneak attack, it is undeniable that she succeeded in the sneak attack. Along with countless black insects, the mummy worm was burned to ashes. No matter how you looked at it, it was dead. It was too dead to die anymore. Similarly, it was her sneak attack that not only eliminated the mummy worm, but also successfully saved the life of the mummy worm. Zhao Ping is down!
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"
Because the ethereal speed is very fast, in fact, from the moment the mummy was cut into two pieces, Zhao Ping got rid of his restraints and fell back to the ground. He is currently lying on the ground breathing heavily, maybe there is still residual pain in his body. Or maybe the shadow of death is too great. Even now, the man with glasses is still immersed in fear. What a danger! Almost shattered to pieces! If it weren't for that white figure just now...
(Huh? White figure?)
As he thought of the white figure in his mind, the man stopped panting. After hurriedly breaking away, he suddenly came back to his senses and wanted to see who saved him. Yes, as just described, the ethereal speed was so fast that even the mummy could dodge. Not as good as Zhao Ping, who was only human. Needless to say, until he thought of the white figure in his mind, Zhao Ping hurriedly got up with his hands and feet as if he was electrocuted. Unexpectedly, as soon as he got up, Zhao Ping was almost paralyzed by fear again!
Looking up, the first thing that comes into view is the ashes on the ground, a pile of smoldering ashes and debris, and in front of the ashes is a white female hopper floating! ! !
Yes, that's a hawk, a long-haired female hawk with a body that shines white. Her twisted and ferocious face, her windless hair, and her amazingly long sharp nails, no matter which one, always proves that the other is a hawk. , is a female locust whose appearance alone is enough to scare ordinary people to death! At this moment, the female locust was floating in front of her, staring down at her from a very close distance!
"ah……"
Seeing the female hawk staring at him intently, Zhao Ping was immediately frightened out of his wits! Of course, fear is fear, but he is a veteran after all. His body trembled suddenly, and then he reached into his pocket like lightning. It was obvious that in order to protect himself, the man subconsciously wanted to grab a prop, and then...
"Wait a minute! Uncle Glasses, don't take the props. I'm currently in a spirit state and the props will hurt me!"
(Um?)
At the critical moment when Zhao Ping was about to use the props, Kong Ling, who saw the opponent's intention, did not hesitate to remind him and hurriedly stopped the opponent's behavior. As expected, Zhao Ping stopped in front of him when Kong Ling shouted. The reason that prompted him to finally stop was that he heard the voice. The voice of the female locust was very familiar, and he was familiar enough to hear it often.
As expected, Zhao Ping found that the female locust's voice was extremely familiar, and saw that the other party never attacked him. With doubts, Zhao Ping finally gave up, and at the same time observed the female locust with wide eyes, examining the female locust's appearance. After a while...
"Ethereal?"
"Well, it's me. As for the reason, I don't think I need to explain it deliberately, right?" Seeing that the man with glasses finally recognized himself, opposite him, maintaining his soul state, Kong Ling nodded directly and reminded the other person by the way that the result was affirmative. In fact, she did not need to explain or even remind her. From the moment she called Kong Ling's name, Zhao Ping had already understood the cause and effect on his own. After all, he knew that Kong Ling had a weird prop that no one else could use. With that prop, the girl was able to separate her soul from her body. Not long ago, she had been in a coma for a long time due to the separation of her soul from her body. In this case, the appearance in front of her was still vaguely similar to the ethereal white female locust, and the pile of ash remains on the ground...
Could it be...
"Did you wipe out the mummy?"
As expected of a veteran who has always had excellent understanding, and even more worthy of a man with glasses who has been indifferent for thousands of years and doesn't talk much. As soon as he realized the cause and effect, Zhao Ping completely put down his guard, and then continued to do so while completely ignoring Kong Ling's life-saving grace. Going straight to the topic, seeing the man with glasses showing no expression on his face and not saying a single word of thanks from beginning to end, his nose was almost crooked with anger! She wanted to slap him to death in her heart. Don't believe it. Although she is not a wolf at the moment, she has the power of a wolf after all. As long as she is willing, she can easily crush any human being to death with just a move of her fingers. Unfortunately, she just wants to She thought, not to mention that she had known him for a long time, and she had a basic understanding of who the man with glasses was. Seeing Zhao Ping go straight to the topic, she suppressed her inner discomfort. Kong Ling also simply went on to make a long story short, how to turn off the power to increase strength, how to separate the soul from the body and restore it. A series of processes such as how to sneak attack on a mummy and burn it to death will be told one by one.
But, the strange thing is...
Listening to the narration, Zhao Ping was not only surprised at the strength of the empty soul at first, but in the following time, the man with glasses had a complicated expression, his face kept changing, and a pair of eyes hidden behind the lenses frequently glanced at the wreckage on the ground.
There is no reason, no reason. After knowing that the mummy was burned to ashes and completely killed, Zhao Ping was not happy, joyful, or even showing any joy in the face of the good news that could make anyone jump for joy. On the contrary, As the observation progressed, for some reason, the man's expression gradually changed from complicated to gloomy!
Then, adjusting his gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, Zhao Ping turned to look at Kong Ling, and then looked up and down at the girl's soul state. After looking at the girl for a moment, Zhao Ping asked a question, a question that surprised Kong Ling: "Can you How long will the soul state last? Can you tell me the specific duration?"
"Huh?"
Because the question itself was a bit abrupt, Kong Ling was stunned for a moment, but still answered truthfully: "Since my soul is always dependent on the soul thermometer when leaving the body, there is a perceptual connection between me and the prop. To put it simply, it can be understood that I can clearly Seeing the temperature counter value, since the moment my soul left the body, the value has been slowly decreasing, with an average decrease of 5% per minute, but it must not drop to the bottom line, otherwise my physical body will die. Once the physical body dies, the soul I can’t go back.”
"That is to say, you have been able to leave the body in the soul state for 20 minutes." After receiving the answer, Zhao Ping murmured to himself, while Kong Ling nodded first, then shook his head and said: "It's almost 20 minutes, but from the time I rescued you to now, the time Twelve minutes have passed and I have 7 minutes left to leave the body. I must return to my physical body within 7 minutes."
Seeing Kong Ling's additional supplement, Zhao Ping was noncommittal. At the same time, he frowned and opened his mouth to test: "Then the reason why you continue to stay and not return to your body at this moment..."
"Could it be a backlash?"
It is said that communication between smart people is always simple. Sure enough, in just two conversations, Zhao Ping roughly guessed the reason why Kong Ling did not return to his body immediately. Seeing that Zhao Ping guessed the key, Kong Ling nodded and admitted directly: "Yes, leaving the body is a special method that violates the laws. The moment the soul flies out of the body, the backlash is basically doomed. In other words, no matter how long I am out of the body, as long as my soul returns, I will immediately fall into I'm in a coma, and the reason why I won't return for the time being is for two reasons. First, I want to be awake as much as possible, and second, I want to stay and observe the situation. If there are other dangers, I will take advantage of the time. Continue to eliminate danger."
Yes, the above are the two main reasons why Kong Ling clearly eliminated the worms but still remained unable to return to the physical body. As the girl explained to herself, when she returned, she was destined to be in a coma and suffer backlash, so she wanted to stay awake as much as possible. Yes, but this is only a secondary reason. The main reason is that she cannot guarantee that the castle is only threatened by mummies. The purpose of continuing to stay is to search and observe, using the unique powerful perception of the spirit body to search for danger. If she finds it, then she He will definitely attack decisively before time is up, so as to eliminate threats for the team as much as possible.
As for the result, I relied on my supernatural senses to search for a long time, and searched all over the castle. The result was that I found no traces of spirits other than myself. The mummy that turned to ashes in front of me also lost its energy, and there was no more mental fluctuations. It can be determined that the mummy was The worms have been eliminated, and 17 minutes have passed unknowingly, with only the last 3 minutes left before the value reaches zero.
so……
"Uncle Glasses, I have checked the entire castle and did not find any other spirits. Time is running out. I have to go back now. By the way, my body is in the power room of the North District."
Hooray.
Seeing that there was not much time left, Kong Ling was as careless as ever. The moment he confirmed that the castle was no longer a threat, he said a few words and turned around to leave. Without waiting for Zhao Ping to reply, his soul instantly disappeared into the darkness as quickly as the wind as it came. It disappears without a trace in the blink of an eye. There is no doubt that under the pressure of the limited time left, unless you want to die, the ethereal spirit must return to the body regardless of whether it is willing or not. Similarly, once the soul returns, the girl will fall into the depths. Comatose and unable to function anymore, as for Zhao Ping...
Perhaps in Kong Ling's eyes, she had indeed searched and sensed the entire castle, and the result was that there was no danger, otherwise she would not have been able to return immediately. However, the strange thing was that, watching the girl's soul disappear into the darkness, Zhao Ping did not show any joy. The person's brows are furrowed as before, and his expression is complicated. No, it's not just complicated. If you look closely, you can faintly see a trace of lingering frustration and worry!
While worried, he shifted his gaze again and looked at the ground again, looking at the pile of mummy remains that had been burned to ashes by the Hellfire.
Next... Maintaining his worries, Zhao Ping turned around and walked straight to the north area on the second floor. It was obvious that he was going to the power room to take away the ethereal body that was currently in a coma. However, while walking, the man But he was vigilant throughout the whole process, as careful as he was when he escaped, as if he was on guard for fear of encountering a wolf!
As for the reason?
The reason is very simple, and the reason comes precisely from the fact that Zhao Ping is good at thinking and knows how to analyze. Through thinking and analysis, just now, he discovered doubts and several strange doubts that he could not reasonably explain no matter how hard he tried.
First of all, we must understand that this is a difficult mission, a supernatural mission that is exactly the same difficulty as the original "Midnight Ring", and the mummy that represents the threat has indeed shown its heaven-defying methods. Even if the mummy is not an earthbound spirit, it is actually still It has a tyrannical strength that is no less than that of an earth-bound spirit. Apart from anything else, the ability to kill people in the air regardless of distance is no longer something that ordinary spirits can possess. It is not even a supernatural ability. It is conceivable that such a spirit can The mummy, which can basically be equated with invincibility, has now been eliminated? Was he suddenly burned to ashes by Kong Ling's soul that had separated from his body?
Just, is this possible?
Even if the hollow spirit soul is comparable to Li Qi, even if the surprise is a sneak attack, the question is, will a Qi with the same strength as the earth bound spirit be destroyed easily? Or will a mission cursed with a difficult label be accomplished so easily? And more importantly...
As the mummy was destroyed and turned into ashes, the curse did not issue a notice or any information to resolve the incident!
That's right, relying on his extremely rich mission experience, Zhao Ping knows that there are generally two ways to solve supernatural missions. The first is the most common time consumption, which means that as long as the executor stays alive in the mission world until the time limit ends, At that time, they will be instantly teleported back to the hell train by the curse. The second is for the executor to take the initiative and take the risk to solve the supernatural incident before the situation becomes irreversible. Once the incident is resolved, the curse will send a notification. In addition to notifying the completion of the task, incidentally It will also teleport in advance regardless of time and send the executor back to the hell train in advance.
This is true, but what is difficult to understand is that the mummy has obviously been destroyed and reduced to ashes. Even the ethereal spirit in the soul state has searched the castle and found nothing. However, the curse has not released information on the resolution of the incident. notify!
Precisely because he thought of these doubts, Zhao Ping was neither happy nor relaxed. Instead, he was still worried and cautious. He can describe it in one sentence:
After analysis, Zhao Ping believed that something was fishy, and it was far from being as simple as imagined!
As a result, Zhao Ping guessed correctly. Even though he could not figure out the truth for the time being, he did analyze one thing correctly, that is, things were not simple, far from being as simple as he imagined!
evidence? The evidence soon emerged.
At the same time, just as Zhao Ping was moving cautiously with a rough heart, the scene shifted to the south area on the second floor.
Time, 17:30 in the evening.
As the power was turned off and the lights disappeared, and the sun was setting in the west, the originally bright castle environment became dim. Under the darkness, the corridors became dead silent, and the whole was silent, just like a picture that was always still. The description is like this, but who would have thought that in this seemingly static picture, there is a collapse hidden inside, and there is an unimaginable horror hidden inside!
The view continues along the corridor and finally reaches a certain room.
The room was dark and gloomy. The darkness covered the luxury of the room and covered up all the priceless treasures. Similarly, while covering the treasures, the darkness also hid someone's figure, completely covering Chen Shuihong.
In the corner, the fat meat was trembling, and the corners of the mouth were twitching frequently. Although the darkness created a sense of security, it was a pity that this so-called sense of security was too illusory, to the point of being almost non-existent. Even though his heart had already given hints, Chen Shuihong was still confused. His eyes were wide open and he kept looking around, as if he was terrified.
What happened is not complicated. To be honest, as a coward who is scared to the core, Chen Shuihong was dumbfounded and collapsed from the moment Xie Xiaona screamed and exposed her position for no reason. The ground collapsed. Because he was too frightened, Chen Shuihong ran away with his mind blank, and followed He Fei in a reckless and reckless manner. It was true, even though his mind was empty and he was only running, but he is a smart man after all, and he is well aware of dangerous moments. The best choice is to follow He Fei closely. Only by following the kind-hearted captain can his own safety be guaranteed. This is what he thought. Unfortunately, God played a joke on him. He only ran less than ten meters and fell. He fell down, and in a hurry he slipped and fell to the ground. When he finally struggled to get up, he found that He Fei had long disappeared. Not only was He Fei missing, but there was no trace of the other people who had just fled in all directions!
They are indeed a group of experienced executors. When encountering danger, they can run very fast!
Of course, it cannot be said that there is no one nearby. At least the unresponsive Xie Xiaona is still stranded at the scene screaming in fear, but does this make sense? Unless Chen Shuihong was in trouble, he would rather be alone than stay with this harmful person. As expected, when he saw Xie Xiaona crying for her father and mother, Chen Shuihong panicked and ran away, fleeing to the south in one breath. He walked into the corridor and saw that there were rooms on both sides of the corridor. How could Chen Shuihong dare to neglect it? He hurriedly opened a door and quickly hid in it. Next...
Chen Shuihong was tortured and suffered a series of heart-breaking psychological torture!
As soon as he entered the room, he heard screams and gunshots. A series of exclamations and screams echoed in the hall along with gunshots, and then passed through the door to his eardrums. Chen Shuihong was so frightened that his bladder contracted and his urge to urinate increased, so he hid. For an entire hour, there was no sound outside the door. After hesitating for a long time, Chen Shuihong finally managed to calm down. However, just when he finally plucked up the courage and was about to open the door and go out to look for his teammates, suddenly, there was another gunshot nearby. !
Seeing that accidents happened frequently in the lobby on the second floor, Chen Shuihong finally did not dare to go out and completely lost his courage to go out. After that, he huddled in the corner and shivered like a mouse being chased by a cat. He was in panic all day long until evening came. As night approached, Chen Shuihong still stayed in the room.
