Chapter 357 Three Types of Shadow Ghosts
Amid the screams of the citizens, the huge shadow ghost was wreaking havoc in the city.
The shadow ghost has extremely strong power. Every time its claws swing down, it can easily destroy a building.
The cars on the ground were kneaded into a ball by it like pieces of plasticine and thrown everywhere.
Explosions caused by the collapse of houses continued to sound around.
The streets were soon filled with flames, the ground cracked, gravel and steel bars kept rolling down, and the scope of destruction was still spreading rapidly around.
The people who happened to be around the shadow ghost screamed and ran away, away from the vicinity. The streets that were just bustling and lively just now turned into ruins in a blink of an eye like a tide retreating.
On the side of the street where the crowd dispersed, the crowd retreated, but the figure of a child was exposed.
It was a little girl in a kimono. The bright colors of the kimono were particularly conspicuous on the entire gray street.
The little girl seemed to be knocked to the ground by someone. Her face seemed to have lost her soul and looked confused. After being knocked down for a long time, she slowly got up from the ground.
The little girl who got up did not run away immediately. Instead, she walked slowly towards the tall ghost in front of her with dull eyes.
The ghost had already discovered the little girl at this time. As the only living creature within its sight, she was still actively approaching it. This behavior was tantamount to provocation to it.
The ghost roared angrily, immediately gave up the house he was destroying, and turned to pounce on the little girl.
The speed of the ghost was extremely fast, and the distance of dozens of meters was reached in an instant.
However, just when the ghost raised its claws and was about to hit the girl, its movement suddenly stopped, and its body seemed to be bound in place by a force. The raised claws trembled laboriously, but could not fall.
"Found it..."
On the roof, the young man half-raised his arm and made a similar movement to the ghost. With his other hand, he pushed his glasses and looked at the girl who appeared below.
"Go and get it."
"Yes!"
The middle-aged man next to him hurriedly responded and jumped down the tall building in one step.
A few seconds later, the middle-aged man landed steadily and rushed towards the girl and the ghost.
However, before he could get close to that side, he saw a chain claw suddenly fly out from the shadow behind, accurately grabbing the girl's back and dragging her into the darkness behind.
The middle-aged man was startled and hurriedly rushed over, bypassing the shadow ghost and jumping into a large courtyard behind to look for it.
However, the area within sight was already empty, without any figure.
"Young master, I lost it..." The middle-aged man reported with his hand on the headset.
"..."
Above the roof, the young man frowned and put down his raised right hand.
The bound shadow ghost on the ground was suddenly freed, roared, and as if he could sense the location of the prey, he immediately chased in the direction where the girl had just disappeared.
"I'll chase!" The middle-aged man hurriedly wanted to follow the shadow ghost.
"No need."
The young man's voice came from the headset: "Leave this to me, you go to the beach to prepare the boat, the Celestial Empire can't stay."
"Understood." The middle-aged man immediately changed direction, ran towards the beach, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
On the rooftop, the young man looked at the direction of the shadow ghost's pursuit, his eyes gradually became cold.
He took off his glasses, unbuttoned his shirt, and took off his shirt.
Then the shadow behind him began to change rapidly, and finally stopped at a sturdy male shadow.
The appearance and figure of the young man also changed, quickly turning into a muscular man with muscles and explosive power.
The next moment, the entire rooftop trembled, and the figure of the young man disappeared directly on the spot.
…
In the darkness, Mu You ran along a remote road, holding Ye Rumeng, who had just been rescued, in his right arm.
The roar and rumble of the shadow ghost behind him continued to sound. This shadow ghost was like a human bulldozer. Wherever it passed, buildings were damaged and houses collapsed in pieces, like a battlefield hit by a bomb.
Mu You could only try to keep a distance and try to lead the shadow ghost to this sparsely populated section of the road.
"Why are you here?"
Mu You asked while running wildly. He originally came here to check according to the guidance of the shadow ghost. Unexpectedly, he saw a released shadow ghost wreaking havoc in the city as soon as he approached.
What he didn't expect was that he actually saw the figure of the little girl nearby!
Fortunately, he arrived in time and rescued the little girl first.
"Mu You... I'm cold..."
At this time, Ye Rumeng under his arm looked confused. Her speech and consciousness were obviously a little confused. She seemed to be in a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness.
Mu You didn't ask again. The little girl's state was a bit abnormal. In fact, he was not sure now. Was the shadow ghost behind him chasing the little girl? Or was he chasing the shadow ghost box in his hand?
At this moment, the shadow ghost in the shadow ghost box was colliding wildly in the box, trying desperately to leave the box. It had completely lost its previous rationality, and gave people the feeling of only rage and tyranny.
"No matter what, leave here first..."
Mu You continued to guide the shadow ghost to the remote area on the outskirts of the city. Just now, the shadow ghost destroyed a street in just one minute. If it continues to attack within the city, no matter whether it can win or not, it will cause countless casualties.
"Swish!"
Just as Mu You was passing through a forest quickly, a figure suddenly jumped out from the bushes next to him and rushed towards him at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye.
Mu You didn't have any time to react before he was hit by a huge force and was knocked away. His health was reduced sharply, and at the same time, the girl in his hand also escaped.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough. While he was in mid-air, his hand subconsciously reached into his pocket and pressed the pocket watch.
Everything changed, and Mu You returned to the time when he just rushed into the woods.
This time with early warning, he finally had time to watch out for the trees on the right.
Sure enough, a few seconds later, another black shadow rushed out.
Mu You could see clearly this time. It was a shirtless muscular man, wrapped in a layer of black energy. He felt very similar to the shadow ghost chasing behind him, both of which were full of negative emotions.
But this man is not like the shadow ghost behind him. The black energy directly submerged the human body and gathered into a giant four to five meters high. Instead, it only wrapped a thin layer around him, as if he was covered with a layer of black energy. A black coat.
But even this thin layer provided him with extremely strong energy, making his speed so fast that it was blurry. If Mu You hadn't been prepared in advance, he would still have been hit this time.
"boom!"
The black shadow rushed towards him like lightning. Mu You jumped up and narrowly avoided it by stepping on the tree trunk above.
The black shadow, with its forward momentum, broke seven or eight big trees along the way before stopping.
"You can actually escape! Who are you?"
The muscular man looked at Mu You with an expressionless expression and spoke fluently in Star Spirit language.
Mu You frowned. Although this man's appearance and body shape had completely changed, Mu You had a feeling that this man should be one of the two people who came to his store in the morning. To be precise, he was one of them. young man in glasses.
This man's current state should be that he is possessed by a shadow ghost.
Counting the shadow ghost chasing them from behind at the moment, Mu You has seen three shadow ghosts with his own eyes so far, but the characteristics of these three shadow ghosts are completely different.
The shadow ghost behind him seemed huge and had terrifying oppressive power, but its actual combat power and destructive power were not even the slightest bit worse than the shadow ghost on his body.
The guy in his shadow ghost box was able to fight off the pirate ghost that was capped at level 30, which was the top level of legendary strength.
The shadow ghost behind him, chasing him all the way, seemed to have just reached the legendary level, and was even a bit reluctant. It was probably at level 25. It had evolved but not fully evolved strength. To be more precise, it should be called a 'half-step legend' .
As for the muscular man in front of him, he is even weaker. He can't be sure that he is not at the legendary level, but at most level 22 or 3. However, this person is characterized by his body specialization, and his attributes are all focused on force sensitivity. In addition, The uncontrollable characteristics of the Shadow Ghost make his actual combat effectiveness much more difficult than that of players of the same level.
Of course, although this possessed shadow ghost is the weakest among the three shadow ghosts, it has the greatest advantage: it has reason!
It can be seen from the fact that the other party was able to speak clearly just now that this person even completely retained his own personality. In other words, this shadow ghost is a real controllable shadow ghost!
The difference between whether a shadow ghost is controllable or not is huge. To put it bluntly, an uncontrollable shadow ghost is just a mindless wild monster, but a controllable shadow ghost is a real combat power.
At this time, the muscular man had bent his legs, disappeared like an afterimage, and attacked Mu You again.
Mu You still couldn't dodge this time. This man's strength and agility were even higher than his bonus attributes in vampire state.
Mu You retraced time, relied on the prophet to avoid the opponent's attack again, and then turned around and continued to run away.
He couldn't stop fighting in his current state. One was that the giant shadow ghost was still chasing him. He was being chased by two shadow ghosts at the same time. The other one had to protect the little girl.
There is something wrong with the little girl's current state. She seems to be hypnotized and cannot control her actions, so Mu You cannot put her in the backpack, otherwise she may leave through the dream space on her own.
Mu You could only continue to run away. The huge shadow ghost behind him was easy to talk about. Because he was irrational, he was destroying all the way and hindering him a lot. It was not easy to catch up with him. As for the muscular shadow ghost, he also had a pocket watch as a weapon. You can avoid the opponent's surprise attacks again and again.
At this time, the sound of sirens and helicopters could be heard in the distance, but it was not the police reported by Mu You. He knew very well that the police could not handle this situation. He had only contacted Lin Xue just now.
At the moment, the only people in K City who can help him fight against the shadow ghosts, apart from Lin Xue's death skin, are probably the only shadow ghosts in his shadow ghost box.
Muyou didn't let the shadow ghost out of the box before because he was afraid that it would get out of control and cause destruction in the city. But now, since there is already one released shadow ghost, it doesn't matter if there is one more.
Using Shadow Ghost to defeat Shadow Ghost is also a way, but before doing so, the battlefield should be as far away as possible.
Mu You rushed all the way to the suburbs, while silently counting the time in his heart.
When he finally led the two pursuers behind him to the deserted outskirts, a vibration came from the phone in his pocket.
Mu You quickly took out his phone and shook it.
Sure enough, it was Lin Xue's news, with only three short words: I'm here.
Mu You suddenly felt confident.
Putting away his phone, he stopped directly in an open space.
And almost as soon as he stopped, the sound of breaking through the air behind him sounded again.
"Don't run away?"
The muscular man pounced again at an extremely fast speed.
This time Mu You did not dodge, but reached into his pocket, touched his pocket watch, and felt the time of the opponent's attack.
The next moment, he felt a black shadow lightning attacking him from the side, but at the moment of the attack, Mu You pressed the pocket watch in advance.
Time passed, this time Mu You took out the Shadow Ghost Box, quietly hid on the other side, and calculated the time in his heart.
When the other party was about to attack, Mu You opened the Shadow Ghost Box.
"Roar!"
The Shadow Ghost, who had been extremely angry, suddenly surged out, with black air wrapped around his body, and his body suddenly grew to six or seven meters high.
When he appeared, he had already slapped out with one claw, and directly slapped the muscular man who suddenly attacked into the ground.
Mu You hurriedly avoided to the side to prevent being possessed by the Shadow Ghost.
He found that the real complete Shadow Ghost felt different. The Shadow Ghost in front of him was obviously much larger in size than before at the bottom of the sea, and his momentum was even more frightening.
At this time, Mu You had already clenched his pocket watch in his hand. It was actually a bit risky for him to release the shadow ghost this time, because when he rescued the little girl before, he had seen another shadow ghost being controlled. In other words, this person might have some means of controlling the actions of the shadow ghosts, but Mu You was not sure whether the other party could only control that one shadow ghost or all the shadow ghosts.
If the other party could control the one in the box, then releasing it would be equivalent to adding helpers to the other party, so Mu You held the pocket watch in advance, and once the shadow ghost showed signs of being controlled after being released, he would immediately go back.
Fortunately, there was no such thing.
After the shadow ghost appeared, it was like seeing an enemy with a blood feud, and it didn't care about Mu You's existence at all, and its two claws smashed towards the muscular man on the ground desperately.
"Dong Dong..."
The shadow ghost smashed down one claw after another, and each claw could cause a tremor in the earth, and the muscular man was completely smashed into the soil and rocks at this time, with blood spitting from the corners of his mouth, and his face was twisted and deformed, and he had no power to resist.
"Roar!"
Until another roar came from behind.
The other shadow ghost finally arrived at the scene, and without saying a word, it rushed towards the box shadow ghost, knocking the shadow ghost who was outputting at full power away, and the two shadow ghosts fell into a ball.
When the two shadow ghosts got up again, their attention was instantly focused on each other, just like King Kong saw Godzilla, each roared, and collided with each other in a hot temper, and their claws kept tearing at each other.
The scene was suddenly shaken as if a major earthquake had occurred, and strong air currents kept blowing around, and Mu You had to quickly move away from the battlefield.
On the other side, the muscular man crawled out of the soil, his body covered in blood and flesh, and looked much weaker. He looked up in the direction of Mu You and the girl in his hand, but he didn't dare to rush over again, but suddenly ran towards the seaside.
But before he ran far, he hit a newly formed ice wall with a bang and was bounced back.
When he landed, the blade of a sickle on his side suddenly chopped.
The muscular man dodged hurriedly and barely avoided it with his super high speed.
When he landed, he saw that the person who stopped him was a woman in a red robe and holding a sickle.
Behind him, Mu You had blocked his way, and the two of them surrounded him in the middle.
"It's you... it's you... no wonder..."
The ghost captain was not easy to recognize, but the image of the red sickle girl had been spread all over the forum. When he saw the figure in front of him, he immediately understood a lot of things.
No wonder this person was able to dodge his attack all the way, and No. 14 actually fell into the hands of the ghost captain, which he did not expect.
The two people in front of him were the few people he did not want to meet among the fools for the time being, but he ran into them all at once, which was why he was instantly trapped in the current desperate situation.
What should I do next?
"Dang!"
Just as the muscular man was still thinking about countermeasures quickly, a deafening bell sounded in his ears.
The muscular man suddenly felt that he could not move, and the phantoms of the little ghosts around him quickly emerged, screaming and rushing towards him, locking him in place from all directions.
In the distance, the skeleton of the Grim Reaper appeared on Lin Xue's body again, but this time the part that appeared was very small, only the ribs and right arm.
The next second, the Grim Reaper's right arm scythe swung and slashed at the muscular man.
The blade lightly cut through the muscular man.
However, the imagined scene of a soul being taken out did not appear, and the tip of the scythe was empty.
Lin Xue was stunned and immediately put away the phantom of the Grim Reaper.
The muscular man who had escaped from the restraints of the death knell had no sound. With a plop, he fell straight to the ground and there was no movement.
The two hurried forward to check. The muscular man's eyes rolled back, his body was stiff and bloodless, and he was obviously a corpse.
"Did he die just like that?" Lin Xue asked curiously. It was the first time that the Grim Reaper's scythe did not draw out a soul.
"I'm afraid he escaped..."
Mu You shook his head and condensed a light spell in his hand.
In the light, no shadow was illuminated under the muscular man's body.
