Chapter 242 Everyone is half human and half ghost, no one can see if they are too close

"Don't worry, if Xiaoyu is C-level as you said, then she won't be in any danger in the short term."

In the residential area where Lu Xiaoyu disappeared, Luo Shui comforted Lu Shu.

"C-level, in this world today, is second only to B-level. It can't be that easy. Otherwise, with the ups and downs of the spiritual tide in the human world, it would not be possible to get to where we are today."

"But she doesn't have any fighting ability."

"She doesn't need to fight, does she?"

Luo Shui patted Lu Shu on the shoulder.

"Also, think about it, that soul is gone, that means it's controlled by Xiaoyu, a power user who has evolved to C-level and is extremely good at fighting. With its protection, Xiaoyu will be fine."

"I hope so."

Lu Shu took a few deep breaths. He felt extremely guilty now. After all, he couldn't blame anyone for this. It was he who insisted on letting Xiaoyu come here. She actually wanted to watch cartoons at home.

If Xiaoyu died, his life would probably come to an end as well. This was why he told Nie Ting the secret of the chip without hesitation. After all, if Xiaoyu was gone, what was the point of keeping these secrets?
"buzzing"

The sound of an armed helicopter was heard in the sky, and soon a series of people came down from the plane, all of them were members of the Dragnet.

However, when he saw one of them, Lu Shu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The reason is simple, that guy is the Fuso spy, Keiichiro Sakata.

"I have already told Nie Tianluo."

Luo Shui spoke, of course, the others were still unable to discover Luo Shui.

"Nie Tianluo said that they could be used as cannon fodder."

"them."

Lu Shu didn't say anything, but there was a questioning look in his eyes, which meant this.

"Well, this person used the tools in his hand to turn all his subordinates into Fuso spies. It should be some kind of plastic surgery. After all, you know that Fuso people are not good at this. So, after finding out, Nie Tianluo used the excuse of redeeming his crime to let this team come here. In the future, if there is any danger, he will use them to take the blame."

"Meet the Ninth Heaven Luo."

Sakata Keiichiro looked at Lu Shu who was standing there with starlight all around him, bowed again and spoke.

This time, Lu Shu didn't say anything because he was not in the mood.

"So, can we open the way to the other world?"

"All I can say is, try your best."

Nie Ting spoke.

"The data in the Heaven and Earth Network records how to open the door to the other world, but whether it can really succeed or not, no one knows before today. After all, it has been nearly a thousand years since the last spiritual energy revival."

"Tianluo, what does the inner world mean?"

At the side, Keiichiro Sakata asked with a look of "curiosity". At the moment, he had the qualifications to ask. After all, this was the mission he was going to carry out next. Even if there was a tight net, he couldn't let them go to die without knowing it.

"You've heard of our underworld."

"Of course."

"All the underworlds, hells, or the Avalon in the West in human legends, and other legendary places are all hidden in the other world. They will appear with the rise and fall of spiritual energy, and will disappear with the fall of spiritual energy."

"And the inner world is a transit station leading to these places. Of course, according to intelligence records, the inner world is more like a mirror of the earth, a world in a mirror, and those legendary places are hidden in certain places in the mirror world."

"As for your mission, it is also very simple, to rescue people. There is a secret member of our Heavenly Dragnet who has mistakenly entered the other world. What you have to do is to cooperate with the Ninth Heavenly Dragnet to rescue her. Do you understand?"

"You're not going in?"

"I need to guard the beacon."

Nie Ting explained.

"The so-called beacon is the crystal that condensed when the entrance to the inner world was first opened. With it, we can open the corresponding inner world. However, this thing is two-way. We want it, and the monsters in the inner world also want it. If they get hold of the beacon, they can invade the real world at will. Therefore, I am the only one who can guard this place to prevent the entrance from being closed, and at the same time prevent some abnormalities in the inner world from running into the human world."

After saying that, Nie Ting looked at Shi Xuejin.

"give it to you."

"Ah."

Shi Xuejin came to the place where Lu Shu mentioned the vortex. With the perception of the ring in his hand, he could also sense the vortex. So, he stretched out his hand and slowly activated the "Liang Yi Can Tong Qi". Under the guidance of his soul, the aura of the world around him was guided and gathered.
However, these auras were not swallowed by Shi Xuejin, but were suspended there by his ring.
"Pfft~~"

The next moment, Shi Xuejin took out a small knife and cut a scar on his finger.

A drop of Yin Hong's blood dripped down, but it did not fall to the ground. Instead, it was held up by the power that seeped out from the inner world. Then, the people around saw that the blood seemed to grow blood roots, which penetrated into the void along with the dense black power.
"Tianluo, what are you doing again?"

"fishing."

Nie Ting explained that he had no intention of hiding this information from the people in front of him, and the reason was very simple. As long as your country has a supernatural power that can be passed down, it will know about the records of the other world. For example, Japan's Shenji was established around the Tang Dynasty and obtained a lot of intelligence from the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, there is no point in concealing these things.

On the contrary, being open and honest will allow these traitors to come up with more good things.
"for example."

Nie Ting raised his head and looked at the crowd.

"According to ancient records, if there is no beacon, this fishing method is needed to open the other world. You need a place where the power of the other world has escaped. In layman's terms, this place has weak barriers because of water leakage, and there must be a person who can control the power of the other world but will not be infected. Finally, his blood essence is needed as a guide."

"In this way, a connection can be established between the two worlds, and the weirdness of the other world can come to the real world through this vague connection. This process itself is to open the channel and establish a beacon. However, as I said, this is like fishing. It is hard to say how long it will take for a fish to bite."

"You all have about three minutes to deal with your personal problems. Shake off all the shit, piss and farts. Gather here in three minutes. After that, no matter what happens, you can't leave. Understand?" "Yes, sir!"

A group of people saluted Nie Ting and Lu Shu, and immediately ran towards a shadow.

“Hey, this is also called fishing.”

Luo Shui explained to the confused Lu Shu.

"They will definitely report what happened here to Fuso. The strategic value of the inner world is the same as that of the secret realm. To be more precise, the secret realm is built on the basis of the inner world, but the secret realm is a small world independent of the inner world, and there are only so many things to explore."

"But what's the point of telling them?"

"It seems that the memory provided by your chip is not very stable. It should only provide memory after seeing the real object."

"Maybe so"

"Didn't Nie Tianluo say that just now?"

Luo Shui sensed the scene in the distance. Those spies were contacting the gods of Fuso in an extremely secret way and reporting what was happening here.

"He stayed here in order to obtain the beacon that was formed when the passage was closed. This thing can be anything, and it can move. In other words, with the beacon, you can open the path to the inner world corresponding to this place from any other place. After all, although the inner world is a huge world, it is too huge and too dangerous. Few people can walk freely in the inner world."

"Basically, a beacon means a location where you can get benefits."

"I see."

Lu Shu nodded slightly, and roughly understood the meaning of Nie Ting's "fishing". The first level was to fish for monsters and open the channel. The second level was to fish for the Fuso gods and let them grab the beacon, thus exposing themselves.

However, the problem is that, to snatch something from the hands of the world's number one, unless the other party has someone with abilities similar to Luo Shui, otherwise, don't even think about it.
Yes, this is the third level. If I can think of it, how can they not think of it?

The third meaning is to call out their means
"call"

Lu Shu took a deep breath. To be honest, he didn't want to agree with Nie Ting's plan, because it would undoubtedly add variables to the matter of saving Xiaoyu. But, on the other hand, letting the Fuso people explore the way and die was indeed the best solution at the moment. After all, he was not selfish enough to let others die for him.
Time passes by every second.
At this moment, the sky was clearly getting bright, but in the area where the incident occurred, there was still no light at all, and the air was filled with the smell of decay.
Finally, a hand slowly stretched out from the void.

Dry and decayed, like a mummy.
"Cang~~"

No one present reacted as to when Nie Ting pulled out the knife.

By the time they noticed, Nie Ting's sword had already been sheathed.

A crack appeared in front of him.

"open!"

Shi Xuejin tapped with one hand, and the crack seemed to be stretched open by something, fixed there, forming a door.

Follow the door and look over there.

Across the street, it turned out to be what this neighborhood should look like, except that its color was blood red.
It's like someone took a photo and then used a photo editing software to make a certain part of the photo red.
On the ground was a corpse, split in half.
"Adjust the time."

Nie Ting helped Shi Xuejin, who seemed exhausted, to sit on the ground. He then came to the edge of the entrance, looked at the crowd and spoke.

"According to ancient records, theoretically this entrance can remain open forever. However, as time goes by, the monsters attracted here will become stronger and stronger. To be on the safe side, you only have one hour. After entering the inner world, the farthest distance you can go is to make sure you can go back and forth in half an hour."

"Let's go."

Luo Shui patted Lu Shu on the shoulder. He knew that if he couldn't find Lu Xiaoyu, Lu Shu would most likely not come back.
Entering the inner world, Luo Shui felt as if he had passed through a membrane.

At the same time, the hustle and bustle that should have existed in the human world disappeared without a trace at this moment, and in the inner world, there was only dead silence and weirdness.

Weird plants crawling all over the wall
The old fountain in the community was spraying blood.
The various patterns carved on the edge of the pool also turned into strange skulls.
And this is just a small part of it.
In fact, no language that humans have can describe this bizarre world.
Of course, the most important thing is cold
Obviously, there is no wind, no snow, and no rain, but this place gives people a feeling of coldness bursting out from the bottom of their hearts.
"Om~~~"

Lu Shu also felt this, but he didn't care. He just lifted his corpse dog into the air and activated its perception to the maximum extent, regardless of cost or consequence. Yes, he knew that when the perception of the corpse dog was developed to the extreme, everything that the corpse dog could perceive would also be perceived by the corpse dog.
But he doesn't care anymore
Thus, everything within a radius of several kilometers appeared in his mind, and of course, along with it, the memories in the chip.

Sea of ​​Souls, this is the name of that alien planet.

Here is a projection of the real world.

Therefore, you can see those familiar buildings, but because the Sea of ​​Souls bears the death of all intelligent life, it is destined to be negative, sad, and disordered.
In fact, every monster he sensed was actually a projection of a living person who had been here.

To borrow a phrase from a Japanese writer, everyone is half human and half ghost, and if you get too close, no one can see it.
For example, the girl who lived on the fifth floor of Unit 3, Building 9 and was rescued by him.

In her room, there was a monster, wiping its skin over and over again, until it was bloody, and then it moved to another place and repeated the process.
This is the girl's inner paranoia, transformed into this world.
"come on"

Lu Shu slowly floated into the air. He couldn't fly originally, but this ability was given to him by the Corpse Dog Flying Sword.

In the sky, he used the light curtain on his body to the fullest extent. At that moment, he was the sun.
"Captain, is he crazy?"

"Shut up and watch."

Sakata Keiichiro narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Lu Shu, the Ninth Sky Luo, in the sky.

Right now, the aura he exudes is several times stronger than before. Perhaps, this is the true strength of the Ninth Heaven Luo?

"Roar!!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

"Boom! Boom!"

Various noises broke out of the window and rushed towards Lu Shu in the sky. Facing these strange monsters, the corpse dogs seemed to have turned into hunting dogs out of the cage, and they were actually a little happy.
All the weirdness wherever it passed was not even the result of the corpse dog’s efforts.

"Kill him, kill him."

After a while, Sakata Keiichiro took a deep breath and quietly took out a spell. This was the last trump card given to him by the Shenji Group. After using it, he would sacrifice all other companions and raise his strength to B level, but only for ten seconds.
"But these ten seconds are enough."
