Chapter 24: Ghost Maid
"This is... your house?" I looked at a small castle that appeared in the forest in amazement. Although there were many traces left by the passage of time on it,...it turned out that the little loli next to me was actually a rich woman. ah?
"The place where I lived before should still be usable." She glanced at the small castle hidden in the forest, and said after confirming that there was no trace of anyone's activities.
"How long has it been since you came back?"
"Forget." Luo Lisi said and opened the door of the castle. The large area of dust in Zheng Yichen's mind did not appear, and the inside was abnormally clean and tidy, as if someone often cleaned it.
Well! ? What's that! ?
Looking at the two translucent figures coming out of the ground, he finally shrank his body and twitched the corner of Zheng Yichen's mouth after he got into the castle. Why did he look like a ghost?
After two translucent figures appeared, they bowed slightly to Luo Lisi, and disappeared again.
"what is that?"
"Ghost maid, you sleep in the hall, there is no suitable bedroom for you here."
"Uh." Well, nodded, the hall is nothing, at least it is much better than sleeping in the open air, but Zheng Yichen slept a little uneasy tonight, every time he just closed his eyes, he could always feel an inexplicable feeling sense of voyeurism.
After he opened his eyes, the sense of prying eyes disappeared immediately. He scratched his nose in displeasure. Zheng Yichen looked around, opened the castle door quietly and ran out.
He didn't notice that after he went out, a white shadow left the castle with him.
He didn't feel anything when he came here during the day, and the atmosphere here was just a little weird. After night, the original ordinary environment of the Phantom Forest showed extraordinary characteristics.
The surrounding trees seemed to have turned into those in horror fairy tales with hideous faces, and there seemed to be countless malicious eyes peeping at him...
Click!
Lifting his claws and breaking off a branch, Zheng Yichen squinted his eyes and stared at the branch. The brown color turned black at night, revealing a faint strange fluctuation.
He thought that the power of this forest that could cause people's hallucinations was something like forest miasma. A small flame lit up on his nails, and the flame quickly expanded to the size of a washbasin. Afterwards, he did not throw the fireball out. , but gently tossed it up, and grabbed it with one paw.
With his force, the fireball the size of a washbasin was squeezed down to the size of a basketball. This method was thought of by Zheng Yichen when he was dealing with that mage.
The power of this compressed fireball is stronger, similar to the power increase of extreme spellcasting. Without this method, the fireball just now is the limit of what he can do, not to say that the volume cannot continue to increase.
Instead, the power of the fireball cannot be further compressed. The larger the volume of magic released, the better. It is very simple to make it bigger, as long as the magic power is continuously injected into the opponent pattern. Such magic is destined to be used only to kill young.
Is there any difference in the damage caused by a ball of cotton the size of a palm hitting a person and a ball of cotton the size of a car hitting a person? The difference lies in the weight, and the lethality has basically remained the same.
If you can't control the magic enough, there will be no accumulation of usage to the height of qualitative change. If you do this, you will most likely lose control, and maintaining this kind of magic will also consume a lot of magic power. As long as the magic is not released, you need to continue Consume your own mana for maintenance.
Even if the consumption of magic power for subsequent maintenance is very small, it is consumption after all.
After switching to Zheng Yichen's current method of directly grasping with his hands, not only can the subsequent power of the released magic be improved, but also the subsequent consumption of magic power can be avoided.
After holding the claws, the claws can continue to be retracted, but more force is needed, just for an experiment, there is no need to be so exaggerated, the fireball in his hand is thrown at the nearby tree whose branches he just broke through past.
After the compressed fireball touched the tree, it exploded instantly, completely covering it in the flames, and the smell of burning wood was released immediately. Zheng Yichen took a breath and immediately retreated a distance.
Just taking a sip, he felt that the surrounding environment became a little more terrifying. This smell must have hallucinogenic effects! And the flames lit on the trees didn't last long, and quickly dissipated.
Apart from the fact that the leaves were burnt and the color of the tree was a little darker, there was nothing wrong with it!
There was something evil enough, and he rubbed the branch in his hand into a powder. It was obviously as hard as an ordinary branch, and his resistance to magic was so high. Zheng Yichen, who was about to leave, saw a white shadow in the corner of his eye, and looked at it intently. , isn't it the ghost maid I saw during the day.
The other party's figure is more solid at night, maybe it's a maid, Zheng Yichen thinks the other party's clothes are too substandard... Discuss with Luo Lisi another day to get a maid outfit.
"What's the matter?" Zheng Yichen asked tentatively seeing the other party approaching him.
"..." The ghost maid pointed to the tree that was still emitting black smoke, and then pointed to Zheng Yichen, signaling him to stay away from there.
"Huh? It seems to be okay." Zheng Yichen glanced at the tree. Except for the first puff of smoke that made him feel a little scary around him, there was no other influence at all. Now he has adapted to the situation here. environment.
As for the sense of fear, there is even no sense of fear. For example, when I first met Luo Lisi, when I was trying to fly, I accidentally glided too far and jumped down from a high ground. In addition to the pain, his fear of heights plummeted...
Standing on a half-meter platform, there is no pressure. If you dare to run and jump, try it on a 30-meter platform! The reason why I am afraid of heights is not because I know that I will fall to my death if I stand on a high place. If I know that I fell from a height of 300 meters, it feels similar to falling from a small stool.
So will you be afraid of ordinary heights?
This is the case with Zheng Yichen now. Before crossing over, a gun was pointed at him and he would be so scared that his legs limp. Now his body can completely ignore the attack of ordinary firearms. Even if he is pointed at him, he can maintain an indifferent attitude, anyway. Don't hurt yourself!
The ghost maid shook and gestured with both hands. Zheng Yichen finally understood what she meant after looking at it for a long time.
"Uh, you mean my actions affected... who?"
With an expression that she finally understood, the ghost maid hurriedly nodded, pointed him in a direction, and signaled Zheng Yichen to go over and have a look.
"...Who would come to such a place at night to die."
