Chapter 27: Skeleton Lantern

Seeing that no one responded to him, Cookie stretched out her finger and poked the mask of the lantern, as if it was some kind of leather, slightly elastic, but not very transparent.

They are said to be lanterns, but in fact, the handle on the bottom of the lampshade looks like an oil lamp. The cookie tried to raise one, and the entrance was neither gold nor wood, which was a bit warm, but could not be picked up, and it seemed to be connected to the base.

After thinking about it, the cookie poked the mask of the lantern with a little force. It turned out to be an object like an oil lamp used in ancient times. The top was in a bowl shape, and half a bowl of yellowed lamp oil was filled with a brown-red wick, and the flames were burning very vigorously.

Ma San had completed the investigation and seemed to have found nothing unusual, so he got together with Cookie to study the lantern.

After taking a few glances, Ma San picked up the long strip of material on the ground, and was stained with a little lamp oil. He put it under his nose and smelled it gently. A strong fishy smell rushed straight to his forehead. He quickly shook it a few times, but he still didn't give up. He wanted to pick up the wick to see it, but he heard Yang Ni shouting softly behind him: "Stop!"

Ma San was so scared that he stopped his hand and looked back at Yang Ni with Cookie.

"I really understand where this place is, and I also know why there are traces of people living everywhere in this hamlet, but no one is seen." Yang Ni said in a low voice.

"What's going on?" Cookie asked curiously.

"I just studied the murals on the wall. Although some places have fallen off, the general content can still be understood." Yang Ni continued: "There were originally a lot of people here, but until one day, four evil ghosts suddenly appeared. They killed everyone here by means of bones, blood, digging, peeling, etc., and then used the bones, blood, hearts and human skin of these people to make countless lanterns to worship here, and finally summoned the blue-faced giant ghost called "Cruel".

"You mean that every lantern here was originally one person?" Cookie was so scared that she trembled all over when she heard Yang Ni's words, and asked Yang Ni in a trembling voice.

"Yes, bone extraction is used as seat, blood refining is used as oil, heart rubs as core, and skin is used as cover. This is the origin of these lanterns." Yang Ni added: "And as time goes by, there are fewer and fewer people here, and there are fewer and fewer materials that can be used to make lanterns, so the geniuses here keep catching people to make lanterns."

"But even if you know this, how will it help us pass the game?" Ma Sanyi asked with a nervous look.

"The mural also says that if all the lanterns here are extinguished, the green-faced giant ghost will return to chaos." Yang Ni added.

"That's great. If we can eliminate the green giant ghost, our chances of winning will be greatly improved," Cookies were thrilled.

"What are you waiting for? Let me help them die early and reincarnate early. No, they are already dead." Ma San muttered, while transforming into a right arm knife, instantly slashing several human skin lanterns in front of him. The dark red lamp oil that emitted a fishy smell sprinkled all over the ground, ignited by the wick, and burned into a fire ball with the human skin lantern.

Yang Nichong Cookie nodded, and the two of them fought together, knocking down several human skin lanterns. The entire hall exuded a smell of rotten corpses burning.

And far away from them, a giant blue shadow seemed to have sensed something, grinned at the location of the tower, but did not react any more. Just looked at the ground where he was squatting, countless blue scales were scattered, and the half of his right body was no different from that of humans.

Besides, Yang Ni's side. These human skin lanterns were lined up in several rows, and the destruction speed of the three people was very fast. In the blink of an eye, they had been overturned more than half, and the entire hall on the top of the tower became much dimmed.

Everyone was about to destroy the remaining lanterns together, but suddenly a blue light shone at the entrance of the hall, and the entire space seemed to be twisting. Yang Ni was the first to discover that he opened his mouth to remind Cookie and Ma San, who were still busy. He suddenly appeared in a place where only the base was left.

In less than 3 seconds, the blue light slowly opened like a vertical eye, and a figure rolled out from the widest place in the middle.

Yang Nicai didn't care what he came, and while he was not standing firmly, he suddenly rose up and jumped nearly 10 meters away. He hit the man's chest with his knees, pushed him to the ground, pressed his body hard, and raised his claws with his left hand high, and was about to stab him.

"Wait a minute, it's your own person!" The black shadow was caught off guard by the sudden attack. In addition, something seemed to be chasing him on the other side of the blue light. It was also panic that Yang Ni was able to successfully attack him.

When Yang Ni heard the sound, he realized who this guy was. His legs were still pressing against his shoulders, but the claw knife did not stab it, but was crossed to the black shadow's neck.

When Cookie and Ma San saw the shadow, they were instantly restrained by Yang Ni, and rushed up from their hiding place to prevent the other party from having any help.

But the blue gap disappeared the moment the black shadow came out.

Only then did the three of them see clearly the appearance of the person who came. It turned out that they were the gentleman with glasses who called on everyone to work together to kill the ghost at the beginning of the game, but the one-eyed ghost in the blue face appeared and escaped.

Yang Ni had already figured out how he appeared and asked coldly: "That one just now should be the Teleportation Eye. Since you used it, it seems that you are in big trouble."

The man in glasses laughed dryly, but his eyes were staring at the claws pressing against his neck without blinking, and said with a flattering voice: "Since they are all players, let me get up and talk first."

Yang Ni did not let him go easily, but shouted sternly: "Say, what exactly is the trouble you are in?"

The man in glasses reluctantly looked up at the person who pressed him, then seemed to remember something, and said tremblingly: "Yes, it's some undead monsters."

"The monster that cannot be killed?" Yang Ni frowned slightly.

"You should be careful." Ma San was the most anxious, grabbed the man in glasses' arm and urged.

But no one noticed that there was a small pool of blood-like things on the man with glasses, but at this moment it seemed like life. It slowly slid down from him, rushed to the shadow, gradually getting bigger, and the center of the blood beach kept rising and falling, as if something was about to come out.

The man in glasses seemed to be still scared, his voice trembled, and continued to explain: "No matter what kind of damage these ghosts are, they can recover instantly, but as long as our people are attacked, they will become fucked! Everyone else has fled, and I finally escaped."

"Why, there is more than one ghost?" Yang Ni instantly caught the key to the problem.
