Chapter 426 Who Will Become Whose Inner Demon?
Ji Li's long hair was blown away by the wind, and his pale face slightly raised up, looking at the dark sky.
Following his heart, he felt a world darker than darkness.
The supernatural power that swept the entire building awakened his heart and changed his fight with the paper-cut ghost.
The ghost of this floor was gone.
It seemed that whether the way to survive could be completed no longer had any meaning. The ghost let him go, and he also let the ghost go.
The world was so quiet, it was the gap before the storm.
The hundred-headed monster baby returned to his left arm to live, and he could sense the weakness of the half-sin body.
The civet cat disappeared again, and no one knew where it went.
There was only the heavy breathing of Chen Hansheng in his ears, and a blank question:
"What happened..."
Ji Li naturally couldn't answer him, but he could guess a little.
Half of the store managers have been eliminated in this fourth store manager task.
The survivors, Ji Li and Chen Hansheng, should be on the upper floor, so Li Yi, Gu Xingjian and Xu Nan should be on the lower floor.
That huge supernatural power came from the lower floor, and it should be far away from them.
Ji Li let out a long sigh, suppressed all the emotions in his heart, and said with difficulty:
"It seems that things are going to the last step."
Chen Hansheng was speechless. At their level, many things don't need to be said explicitly.
At this step of the store manager's mission, such a big move is obviously only Li Yi or Gu Xingjian can do.
And their actions mean that they want to put an end to this fourth store manager mission.
The previous conflict with Ji Li has no meaning after the paper-cut ghost ran away in a hurry. Chen Hansheng silently looked at the torn supernatural barrier.
The direction of the gate has been opened for them.
Su Chenghe and Li Guanqi were eliminated on this floor, but the door of life was opened. In fact, nothing has changed.
Chen Hansheng sighed, dragging his seriously injured body towards the door step by step.
At this moment, the female voice quietly came to Ji Li's side, supported him with her hand, and said softly:
"Mr. Ji, I can feel that power, which should come from an extremely powerful sin object.
Its owner is not Li Yi, but Gu Xingjian.
The coordinates are on the fifth floor."
The female voice trembled a little, as if she was a little afraid of the power, but if you listen carefully, it seems that it is not just fear.
This point was not distinguished for Ji Li, who had been injured and had become a disabled person.
He was silently supported by the female voice, following Chen Hansheng's steps, and was still thinking in his heart.
The tone of the female voice was very affirmative, which meant that her words should be true.
If all this was really done by Gu Xingjian, then at this time point, there are two possibilities.
One is that his purpose is to find Ru Ru's mother; the other is that he wants to kill people by this, or for other interests.
Of course, it is not ruled out that he tried to kill two birds with one stone.
Ji Li was not walking fast. He knew that he didn't have much time. Before he arrived at Gu Xingjian's position, it was his only chance to think.
But unfortunately, he didn't know what Gu Xingjian wanted to do.
He didn't know this person at all. His lack of strength made him completely unable to keep up with Gu Xingjian's pace.
One step slow, every step slow.
If he were an enemy, he, Ji Li, would have been on the verge of defeat.
"Ji Li... This building is unobstructed?!"
At this moment, Chen Hansheng's words, with shock, suddenly echoed in Ji Li's ears.
Ji Li also felt this. He was counting the floors in his mind. In five minutes, he had walked down three floors.
In the process, the surroundings were incredibly quiet, as if all the ghosts on all floors had disappeared.
Everything was unobstructed.
The difficulty of the store manager's task lies in that it is a continuous task form that is like running a map.
There is no shortcut to go through one level after another, and you can only go through it layer by layer.
But now, it is obvious that they are taking a shortcut.
Thinking of Gu Xingjian's big move again, Ji Li's heart was shrouded in a haze, and he said in a deep voice:
"It was Gu Xingjian, he used unknown means to attract all the ghosts in the building!"
"What is his purpose in doing this?"
No one could answer Chen Hansheng's question.
Ji Li fell silent.
He was now a disabled man, blind and seriously injured, which made him want to retreat.
If what the female voice said was correct, Gu Xingjian's big move on the fifth floor was to end the store manager's mission.
According to the normal rhythm, Ji Li and Chen Hansheng were far from being able to reach the next five floors, which seemed to be a good thing.
Because the lower they went, the more chances they had to see Ru Ru's mother and the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
But Gu Xingjian took a different approach and concentrated the originally scattered battlefields at one point.
Regardless of his purpose, how could Ji Li get an advantage in his current situation.
If he died, he died, Ji Li didn't care.
But he was afraid that when he reached the fifth floor, he would fall into Gu Xingjian's calculations again.
Ji Li's face turned pale and blue. This thought gave him great psychological pressure, and sweat even appeared on his forehead.
The female voice, as soft as spring rain, came at this moment, wiping his sweat at the same time:
"Sir, what's wrong with you?"
Ji Li's footsteps suddenly stopped. He no longer moved forward. Instead, he turned his head when he heard the sound and looked at the position of the female voice without saying a word.
The female voice seemed to be frightened by Ji Li's appearance, and she grabbed his arm and kept asking.
But at this moment, Ji Li's heart was filled with panic, and he kept repeating the seemingly ordinary words of the female voice.
"What happened to me, what happened to me...
When did I become so fearful, when did I have such a deep fear of a person, that I even pay special attention to Gu Xingjian's smile..."
Ji Li finally realized that something was wrong with him. He carefully reviewed a series of memories of his meeting with Gu Xingjian.
It seemed that he didn't know when he started to worry about Gu Xingjian, and he was as panicked as a demon.
Everything the opponent does is a calculation, and even his confidence to challenge is constantly eroding.
Even the other party's hidden smile would often flash in his heart and eyes.
Ji Li took a breath. He was almost certain that his concerns about Gu Xingjian were not groundless.
Gu Xingjian must have used some means to plant the seeds of inner demons in his heart.
But Ji Li couldn't guess where the problem was.
And this was when Chen Hansheng finally realized that the people behind him had been lagging behind for a long time, so he stood at the intersection and shouted softly:
"Ji Li, are you coming?"
Ji Li stood there and took a few deep breaths. He slowly raised his hands and brushed his blind eyes.
He thought of Li Yi, and he thought of his own changes when he saw Li Yi.
"Gu Xingjian planted the seeds of fear in me. You can count on me for everything, but...
But you are definitely not my real trump card!
Because even I can’t calculate the trump card accurately, so how can you calculate it?
I have made up my mind on this fifth level.
It’s okay if you don’t provoke me. Since you are determined to be Ji’s enemy, let’s see who is whose inner demon! "
