The 260th chapter promotion intermediate (1)
When she walked through the yard and pushed the door into the living room, Danica saw the first thing she saw was the corpse lying in the middle of the living room. From the clothes, the deceased was the maid here, but she could no longer see who it was, because the skin on her entire face was removed, leaving a face with only flesh and blood, her eyes were still detached, her belly was cut open, her internal organs flowed all over the floor, her limbs were scattered everywhere, and one hand was still hanging on the wall.
Has anyone already been killed? Danica frowned slightly, and Berey was making too much trouble.
Danica ignored the body and walked straight to her bedroom on the second floor. Phyllis's small villa is equipped with a magic circle for heating. Even in the cold winter, the villa is still as warm as early summer. But now, Danica clearly felt a cold breath floating in the room. From time to time, she could see a white shadow floating by in the afterglow. When she turned her head to look, she had nothing left. In addition to ghosts, Danica also vaguely heard an intermittent crying sound.
At first he was sobbing, then he was furious, hatred, resentment, and emotions advanced layer by layer. When Danica arrived at the second floor and pushed open her room, her voice suddenly became clear - a doll was lying on her bed, her eyes were extremely real, as if it was real - or in other words, she stared at herself straight at her. Although her mouth was sewn with rough twine and did not move, the crying full of resentment and resentment came from it.
Danica glanced at the ghost doll, entered the room as usual and turned around and closed the door. She took off the thick cotton coat on her body and threw it on the ground, stretched her body, walked to the bed and picked up the doll. The touch on her hands was very special, not like rubber, but had the real skin touch.
This doll is quite heavy, and it shouldn't be covered with cotton wool inside. Although the stitches are a bit rough, the overall proportions are quite coordinated. Danica smiled, looked at the doll's eyes, and said, "I didn't expect you to have this skill." She made a doll with human skin and human eyes, and the creativity is quite good.
Danica threw the doll aside, then opened the cabinet door without any hesitation or caution. Fortunately, there was nothing strange in the cabinet that was often given "surprise" in this horror novel, but she placed her spare clothes normally and neatly. She found a whole set of clothes from the inside and walked into the bathroom.
Danica hasn't taken a bath for more than two months, but she has no choice. In the wilderness, it's still winter, and she can't find a place to take a bath. Even if the streams in the woodland have not dried up, they have a layer of ice. At most, they can only grab a handful of snow to wipe their faces. Under this condition, they have been trekking in the snow and mud water for two months, and their body is dirty enough. They just need a warm hot bath to clean their body and relax their energy.
Danica turned on the faucet, and the water heated by the magic circle flowed out. Even in the center of the political rights of the elves, there were not many places like this that used so much magic in home life. She could also take up the light of the elf princess Philis.
The rising heat quickly spread to the entire bathroom, and the surroundings turned white. The water was almost gone, and the temperature was also good. Danica lay in the bathtub and moaned comfortably. It was still a comfortable life!
Danica was wearing a towel pillow, closed her eyes and enjoyed the comfort of the hot water flowing through the surface of her skin, without caring about the grimaces in the mirror, walls, ceilings, or even water.
Almost half an hour later, a slight sound of pushing the door sounded. Danica still didn't open her eyes and said lazily: "Are you willing to come out to see me?"
There was no sound to respond to Danica's words, and a strong smell of blood permeated in the air. Danica opened her eyes. The water she took in the bath had completely turned into blood. There were still some fragments of limbs rising and falling in the middle. One hand just floated past her. The hand seemed to have been soaking for a long time, and it was a little swollen.
"Bored." Danica muttered and looked around. There was nothing strange and special about the blood in this bathtub.
However, Danica seemed to have found her target. She said in one direction: "Belle, do you know? The root of a person's fear of ghosts is the fear of death, so if you carefully look at the description of ghosts in horror novels, you can clearly find that it is actually a description of a dead body. For example, a ghost face is a common way to bring fear in horror novels. But the reason why a ghost face can bring fear to people must be recognized. To put it simply, it can make people see that this is a face, but this face is broken and weird, and can remind people of death, so that it can bring horror effects."
Danica's earnest teaching forced Berey to appear. She didn't make herself hideous and terrifying. Maybe she knew that this little trick would not work, and she still maintained a pretty girl's appearance.
Seeing Berey appearing, Danica smiled and said, "Let others know that this is a person, and it can also bring about the association of death. The simplest one is a skeleton. After all, in general cognition, this is the final form of a person."
As soon as Danica finished speaking, the sound of opening the door sounded. This time it was a real sound of opening the door. A skeleton walked in and stood in the middle of the room. It was still a distance from Danica's bathtub, but it was still relatively close to Berey.
Danica continued: "The scare brought by such a ghost can only scare some noble ladies and young masters. They have too little knowledge of death and corpses, and they have even lived for more than 20 years and have never seen what corpses look like. In this case, a skeleton can make their legs weak and they can't stand up. But for adults who are in a mature state, this trick is a bit too small to watch..."
With Danica's words, some flesh and blood began to grow on the standing skeleton, but the flesh and blood were not complete, and there were obvious signs of biting, making it look like a broken corpse that was bitten by a wild beast.
Along with this demonstration, Danica said: "For mature adults, the 'normal' corpses can no longer scare them, so they must make something abnormal, such as the corpse that was cruelly killed. The dead body you made in the living room before actually wanted to achieve this effect. I have to say that after such a treatment, this ghost really looks much more terrifying."
Danica lay in the blood of a bathtub and explained the terror to Berene's evil spirit. This matter itself was weird enough. Danica spoke very seriously, and Berene listened very seriously.
"But for those who have seen death or even caused death with their own hands, these are not enough to cause any fear. Don't doubt that such people are not uncommon. Don't forget that we are now in a chaotic world, and there are few places in the entire continent that are peaceful. The "killing people" is terrible in the eyes of some noble ladies and young masters, but for many people, this is something that often happens in daily life. Killing or being killed is all for survival, so at this time, the corpses can no longer bring terrifying effects. It is the people who really make them frightened..."
As Danica tells the story, the flesh and blood on the skeleton began to grow. This time the growth was very thorough. She was completely a complete person, even had clothes, and she looked very familiar with Berey - this was the maid who had just been killed by her and placed the broken body in the living room.
"...For example, the person I have killed with my own hands." Danica said these words in a cold tone. The maid who turned from a skeleton suddenly opened her eyes and stared at Berey.
Although she was extremely reluctant to admit it, when Beilei saw the maid who was killed standing in front of her again, her eyes were full of resentment, her heart really tightened. Beilei seemed to see this poor maid running desperately in the horror illusion she created, her screaming never stopped. Even though her voice was hoarse and she fell all over her body, she was still running wildly. She longed to continue to live, afraid that the evil ghost behind her would chase her. Finally, when the maid felt that she had escaped the horror and returned to her warm home, she turned around and saw the evil ghost who had been chasing her. This poor girl was scared to death.
Fortunately, the maid who came to "live" just stared at her and did not take any further action. Berey breathed a sigh of relief and his nervousness relieved a lot. After she relaxed, she felt a strong sense of shame: One of her evil ghosts was actually scared by another ghost, which was so ridiculous!
Danica looked at Berey's expression change and said, "But, for people at my level, what can I do if the person I killed comes alive? If you can kill once, you can kill the second time. If you are the third time, you will never be able to be arrogant in front of me if you are killed for the first time!"
Danica's words echoed in the bathroom like the cold wind of winter, making Berey feel a special chill and can't help but shrink down. At this time, all the illusions disappeared, the faces in the mirror disappeared on the wall, and the water in the bathtub returned to normal. Berey stood there with a regular rule, like a child taught by the teacher.
After a while, Berey secretly glanced at Danica, and saw her expression slowing down, he asked carefully: "So what kind of horror can really scare someone like you."
Danica's lips curled up slightly, and she didn't know whether it was a chuckling or a sneer, and said, "For me, including you, for people like us, the so-called external horror can no longer play any role, and it is impossible to scare people by relying on illusions. Of course, we are also afraid of death. Fearing death is the most basic demand of a living body, but we are more pure. What we really fear is real harm. If you can really hurt or even kill me, then you will naturally get my fear."
When Berey heard this, she was a little discouraged. If she could really kill Danica, she would still need to make so many fancy things? But indeed, facing someone like Danica, who is extremely firm in mind, she can only fight hard. It is impossible to win by relying on some small means.
Perhaps because he had been lying for a while, Danica changed her position and said, "You may not understand it very much if you say this alone. Let me show you a demonstration to let you understand how to scare people like us."
Danica's tone was normal, but Berey heard an ominous premonition from it. She smiled and said, "No, no, I don't think there is no need for this." Her tone was a little flattering, and she completely lost the arrogance she had at the beginning.
Berey said while talking, and then he was about to slip away. At this moment, a magic array suddenly appeared on the ground, and the natural disaster ring was in the center, which covered her entire body. Berey seemed like a fish frozen in ice, unable to move. When did this array appear? Could it be that it was just now? Influenced by Danica's words, she did not notice the changes around her just now.
Berey shouted anxiously: "Danika, what are you going to do?"
Danica smiled and said, "Why, don't you remember? I didn't tell you before, if you dare to attack me again, I will grind you into soul fragments. Now it's time for me to fulfill my promise... By the way, don't think I can't bear it. Thanks to you, I found another powerful ghost with great potential. I think she is more suitable and obedient. Okay, I'll leave it to you." Danica's last words were directed at the maid who had been standing there.
Hearing Danica's orders, the maid who had been standing there suddenly moved. She rushed towards Berey with a ferocious look on her face, opened her mouth and bit her ear, tore it off with force, and then continued to bite her face. Berey was bound by the formation and could not repay her hands at all. Moreover, she was actually a soul body, and the pain of being bitten by a little bit would be countless times stronger than the body. Berey cried and said, "I dared not again" and begged for mercy to Danica.
Danica didn't care about Berey's crying, so she added some hot water to increase the temperature of the water in the bathtub and continue to enjoy her hot bath.
PS: Will ghosts still be afraid? This sounds completely incredible, but it is indeed a fact. Although Berey has always regarded herself as a ghost, the real pure ghost is a soul body that only retains resentment and killing, without any reason at all. It is an extremely incomplete soul. But since the birth of Berey's soul has not been so incomplete. After so many soul fragments are supplemented and evolved, her soul has become relatively complete, and fear is an indispensable part of a complete soul.
