Chapter 315: Will

Chapter 315: Will

The first reaction when running into ghosts in the anomaly was to move away from them. After Gao Ming ‘persuaded’ the ghost to leave, he collapsed to the ground as if fear had drained him.

Youyou hesitated for a few seconds before she ran into the bedroom. She took in the broken mirror. The female ghost was gone.

“Are you alright?” Youyou didn’t dare touch Gao Ming casually. Those who had been touched by the horror story could have been replaced by ghosts. She didn’t want to die for a stranger.

“I’m okay...” When Gao Ming saw Youyou didn’t have the intention to approach him, he ‘struggled’ to stand up. His hands were covered in blood. The blood was not his but came from the mirror.

“The faceless figurine might have discovered us. All the mirrors in its disciples’ rooms are its eyes. This thing is more cunning than we thought.”

There was only one mud figurine, but everyone twisted by its faith was its clone.

“We should look for Fan Li.” Youyou still did not get close to Gao Ming. She was scared and ran out of the living room, leaving Gao Ming alone, “Xiao Bai! Bai Shu! Where are you?”

Irregular footsteps came from upstairs. Bai Shu and Sister Zhang supported each other as they ran. “Quick! The corridor is not safe! We need to go!”

Hearing her teammates, Youyou didn’t even notify Gao Ming and ran towards Bai Shu. She joined them and ran downstairs.

“What did you encounter upstairs? Where’s Fan Li?” Since no one cared about him, Gao Ming’s condition became magically better, as if the fear that dominated him earlier didn’t even exist.

“Xiao Fan is on the seventh floor! This place is filled with ghosts!” Bai Shu and Youyou ran away. Sister Zhang at least turned back to yell at Gao Ming, “You’ll only be a burden if you go there! Come with us!”

Compared to the investigation centre, the current horror game players were not united. They would fight for benefits and expose their true character in the face of danger. Everyone wanted to survive in the apocalypse. They entered the anomalies to get stronger and save themselves and their friends. Once that was impossible, they would not hesitate to abandon their morality and teammates. This was humanity. It was because of this that people like Fan Li were extremely precious.

If not for Brother Lee’s hand, Ou Yang Susu’s face might have been taken already. The curse coursed through his body. Brother Lee could barely stand due to the pain. However, he didn’t dare to move a muscle.

“Go! Leave!” Ou Yang Susu knew that things were not good for Ol’ Lee, but she didn’t know that the man had already been infiltrated by curses. Even though they often argued, they still had each other’s best interests in their hearts. They never once thought about abandoning the other.

“Fuck this!” With her eyes closed, Ou Yang Susu suddenly leaned back. She knew the ghost was on her back. She slammed her body into the wall behind her. In desperation, the couple showed immense determination. Curses and pain couldn’t deplete the thing that existed in them.

Brother Lee worried about his wife, but he couldn’t do more than hope that other horror game players would come to rescue her before he was taken over by the curse. As long as Ou Yang Susu could be rescued, he’d trade anything for it.

It was at that moment that sounds came from inside the torture room. The Human Face of the God of Flesh and Blood opened his eyes.

A special energy that the naked eyes couldn’t see evaporated from the couple and was absorbed by the God of Flesh and Blood. It appeared to be their emotions or love.

“This should be the power of will mentioned by Gao Yun.” Gao Ming’s original target was Fan Li. He was pleasantly surprised by this couple.

Ou Yang Susu and Brother Lee should have died in the tragedy, but their fate was changed by the God of Flesh and Blood. After consuming their energy, the Human Face closed his eyes. He didn’t seem to plan to do anything beyond that.

“Different humans will evoke different levels of will energy. This couple is already not bad.”

A chain covered in names appeared in Gao Ming’s hands. He rushed forward and lassoed the girl from behind. Without looking at her face, Gao Ming flung the girl into the torture room.

Sister Susu was still fighting with the air. Brother Lee cried out in pain. Gao Ming ran past the couple and headed to the room where Fan Li was.
