Different World: The Devil's Coming

Chapter 120 The Truth

The knight drew his sword, returned to the group and said.

"That ghost doesn't look like a horror, but more like a collection of many souls. Because death is extremely painful, the souls after death become ghosts and exist in the world. And because of some other reasons, they gather together and have a similar horror quality."

"Then why do we see the things we fear?"

Dawn asked.

"Because it was a mental attack, you can think of it as an illusion, they are almost the same. And in an illusion, evoking your fearful memories should not be a problem for them."

"What if what I saw was not what I feared, but a scarecrow?"

Mo Fan couldn't help but say that after all, Mo Fan had never seen the Scarecrow in his two lives, he had only seen it in the game.

"Hmm... I'm not sure about that, but don't you know about the original fear? Maybe when you read the information about fear, the scarecrow was what you imagined in your mind."

Mo Fan nodded thoughtfully. This explanation made sense. After all, when he was reading the story, the first thing that came to his mind was the Scarecrow. After all, the background stories of the two were very similar, and the Scarecrow was also called the Ancient Terror, the Ultimate Terror, which also matched.

"Then there is another question, how did you know?"

Mo Fan raised his head and asked. After all, this was obviously not something a traveler could know. Unless he had come across it, Mo Fan would not be able to find similar information in the Demon King's City. Chenxi knew nothing about it either, but the traveler in front of him knew.

"Because I have met him and killed him."

The knight's tone was very calm, as if he was saying that he was stepping on an ant. But Mo Fan felt unbalanced. It was a mental attack. Mo Fan had no effective defense. How did the knight do it?

"Do you have a way to defend against mental attacks?"

"Boom!"

The knight didn't answer, but patted his helmet. The few people also understood that either the helmet could block mental attacks, or the knight in front of them didn't want to answer. No matter which one it was, the four of them would not ask any more questions. After all, it was not easy to find someone who knew the situation. If he got angry and left, the four of them would be like headless flies, running around in circles again.

They chatted in the hall for a while, and finally the knight took Lian and Lan Kexin in one team, and Mo Fan and Chenxi in the other, and they split into two teams to look for the ghost.

Since Chenxi is not affected, as long as Mo Fan can be awakened in time, the ghost will just be a target.

At this point, the person who needed to escape became a ghost.

"This way!"

"That way!"

"Stop it!"

……

The castle seemed to be bustling with noises coming one after another. Even the frightened Li An and Lan Ke Xin joined the team to attack the ghost. They rushed out from behind the knight and bombarded the ghost frantically, venting their fear and anger.

Fortunately, this castle is protected by a formation and the levels of the people there are not high, otherwise with such indiscriminate bombing, the castle would probably collapse in a few short hits.

After a while of chasing and blocking, the four finally arrived at the master bedroom, which was the room of the blood mage. The room was surrounded by the light element of Chenxi. As for the knight, she said that her light magic could only attack now, not trap people.

Four people pushed open the door, the knight in front, Mo Fan at the side, and the three girls following closely behind.

But there was nothing behind the door, just like when Mo Fan and Chen Xi checked it before. The four of them searched the room, while Chen Xi drank magic potion to restore his magic power and maintain the light element in the room.

"Hey hey!"

Mo Fan accidentally tripped and touched a painting, causing it to shift. However, the painting did not return to its original position. Instead, it stayed on the wall in a crooked position for a while before returning to its original position.

When Mo Fan spoke, the others looked over and naturally noticed the abnormality in the portrait.

Then the four of them began to slowly move objects in the room, looking for hidden mechanisms. Chenxi sat on a stool nearby, crossed his legs, drank a magic potion, and watched the four people busying around, looking very leisurely, even leisurely looking at the layout of the room.

The four people over there looked around but didn't find anything wrong. Just when they were at a loss, Chenxi leaned against the window and said.

"The painting over there turns clockwise, the vase on the left tilts a little to the right, and the lamp above also, push it up a little..."

Chenxi said, and the four of them did as she said. Although they didn't know why, Chenxi seemed to see something.

Each time one was moved, the object became fixed. After moving ten objects, a portrait in the room revealed a magic circle that sucked all five people in the room in.

When the five people appeared again, they were already in a secret room. Looking at the dark tunnel in front of them, Chenxi used the illumination technique to illuminate it, and the five people began to move forward. After all, there was only dirt behind them, so they could only move forward.

"Chenxi, how did you find out just now?"

"Well... our church has records about the ten blood mages. The records record some of their preferences, such as painting with human blood, planting flowers with corpses, and using human skin lamps. I just had this sudden idea. After all, there happened to be objects they liked in the room, so I decided to give it a try."

Chenxi spoke calmly, but the others felt uncomfortable listening to him. After all, the blood and corpses were obviously the people that the blood mage had captured for experiments.

"No wonder there is so much resentment here, won't your church purify this place?"

The knight said in front. Mo Fan secretly made a note in his heart. Your church, it seems that the knight is not a member of the church, and the probability of a hero is higher. In fact, it is very simple to know the identity. An identification is very simple. Mo Fan has a high level, and the identification can basically find out most of it. He will definitely be able to find out something.

But the problem is that everyone can do the identification, even ordinary people can do it. This also leads to the fact that once the identification is done, the target will know it. Over time, identification has become a behavior of disrespecting people. It is often used when bullying others, and the strong bully the weak. Now that several people are fighting together, Mo Fan will certainly not do such a disrespectful behavior. The magic eye is a special pupil technique that others cannot see.

"Because there is a maze here. Although the formation can seal the maze, it is full of undead creatures. Gradually, the undead aura will spread. Unless we clear this maze, or increase our efforts to suppress the undead aura around the castle. But that would consume too many human resources. It is better to leave it like this. The level of the undead creatures in the dead forest is not high, which can also dissuade some timid and overconfident adventurers."

Chenxi explained slowly from behind, and the others moved forward little by little. Time passed as they chatted.
