Chapter 123

Hearing this, the people present had different expressions.

However, why say American high school students are bold? After a brief hesitation, everyone revealed eager looks. Obviously, everyone was very willing to try what Haily described as very, very, very awesome, and what kind of taste it was.

Nancy, sitting on the sofa, suddenly wanted to leave upon hearing this, because this description reminded her of a kind of drug—addictive goods.

And, she didn't know why, she always had a foreboding in her heart, and this foreboding was urging her to leave here.

At this moment, a beeping sound interrupted the atmosphere. The vice president, Rebecca, suddenly received a call. "What? My brother?"

After hanging up the phone, Rebecca ran out in a hurry, looking very urgent.

Nancy wanted to take this opportunity to leave together, but seeing her friend, the student council treasurer—Patricia—was still eager to try there, looking like she wanted to be the second one.

Her heart eased. Forget it, I'll take Patricia with me.

And at this time, Haily gave Christina a look, and Christina understood, coming near Nancy.

Then Haily continued to explain, "This arm has a taboo, which is that it cannot be used for more than ninety seconds, otherwise the soul will not want to leave. Therefore, when using it, someone needs to time it, and blow out the candle to detach in time."

"Alright, Mia, are you really determined to start?"

Mia was a little scared in her heart, but looking at everyone's eyes, she, who was receiving attention for the first time, took a deep breath, revealing an indifferent smile on her face. "Of course, come on, my babies! Watch closely!"

"Oh oh oh!"

"Mia! You're awesome!"

"I think after this event is over, I can invite you for a drink."

"Mia! Hurry up!"

"..."

Those who were booing, those who were falsely praising, those who were joking, those who were watching the fun and not afraid of trouble...

A group of people said everything.

Mia was immersed in the crowd's embrace, laughing and sitting over. Haily used a belt to tie Mia to the chair.

Subsequently, he lit the candle.

At this time, Nancy was still trying her best to pull Patricia away, but Patricia was very interested in this kind of game. She even wanted to expose the other party and make Christina, who organized this event, lose face.

Finally, Mia tried to hold the ceramic severed hand.

"Respond to me."

In the blink of an eye, a dying old man with white eyes appeared in front of Mia. He reached out to shake hands with Mia, and his terrifying face startled Mia, who subconsciously let go of her palm, and the old man disappeared.

"Mia? You're not scared, are you?"

"If you can't do it, let student council member Nancy give us a demonstration." The surrounding students started booing again.

Looking at the gazes of others, Mia suddenly retorted, "No need, I'll go first!"

Saying that, she held the hand again.

"Respond to me."

This time, what appeared was a fat female ghost who was bloated all over, with pus flowing from rotten places, soaking wet, and looking like she had drowned. She grinned her big mouth.

"I allow you to possess me."

Although afraid, Mia still said this sentence.

Whoosh!!

Along with the words, Mia lay down on the sofa, her pupils dilated, as if she had lost consciousness. A moment later, she shook her head, with an inexplicable smile on her mouth, shouting at the crowd, looking like she was so happy that her soul had flown out of the sky.

Everyone was also surprised, shouting like they were watching the fun.

Suddenly.

The shaking head stopped, and her gaze fixed on Nancy. "Behind you, there are many people."

"The smell, so fragrant."

"They, all like you very much."

Facing such strange words and the surprised gazes of the crowd, Nancy suddenly felt an unspeakable suffocation, and a wave of inexplicable dizziness struck her mind. She violently shook off Patricia's hand and ran out like she was escaping.

But she was blocked at the door by Christina.

Patricia also felt some regret. This didn't seem to be a good thing for Nancy, and this game, was it actually real? Was there really a soul?!

But at this time, the game had already started, the atmosphere had been hyped up, and it was not something she could stop.

She could only stand up and help Nancy struggle with Christina.

At this time, the time had reached eighty seconds, and Haily hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to take the severed hand down.

But an accident happened. I don't know if it was because Mia's willpower was too low, or the possessed drowned female ghost was relatively strong, but she grabbed the severed hand tightly, and the strength was frighteningly large, so it couldn't be pulled away for a while.

It wasn't until three or four students joined in that it was finally pulled out, and Haily also blew out the candle at this time.

However... the time had already exceeded ninety seconds...

Everyone looked at Mia. Mia slowly came back to her senses. Although she was a bit listless, it could be seen that nothing was wrong.

She revealed a smile. "Haha! Awesome!"

"Woohoo!!"

"Oh oh oh!"

"My turn! My turn!"

Christina was pushing Nancy hard, wanting her to participate, but Nancy was really angry now and slapped her.

Slap!

The bright red palm print quickly made her cheek swell.

"You hit me?"

"You actually dare to hit me?"

"Bitch! You're courting death!"

The battle between the two women started, pushing, pulling hair, slapping, tearing clothes, scratching faces...

And most of the people on the side didn't care about this at all, playing with each other on their own, feeling the pleasure of an out-of-body experience, their expressions crazy and extremely comfortable, shaking their heads as if they had gone to the sky.

You come after me, I come after others, let's be happy together! Happy! Happy!

The whole scene was extremely chaotic.

Suddenly.

Christina at the door pushed violently, pushing Nancy over. Nancy stumbled and fell to the ground, just happening to grab the fingers of the severed hand from the outside.

Seeing this, Christina gritted her teeth and shouted, "Respond to me!"

"..."

Nothing strange happened, and Nancy stood up expressionlessly. "Bitch!"

She picked up the severed hand and smashed it at Christina. Bang!

Blood flowed everywhere.

Ah ah ah ah!

Screams, shouts, sounds of pleasure, many sounds mixed together.

The scene finally entered complete chaos at this moment.

No one knew how this night ended, only that Christina was beaten by Nancy and carried out horizontally. Nancy's combat power was simply explosive; a group of people couldn't even pull them apart. It was said that in the end, Christina cried and begged for mercy before Nancy let go.

In addition, that arm also disappeared in the chaos.

The next day, Louis, who had just returned from Rebirth Prison and was preparing to order a large batch of peach wood to make items targeting the Evil Spirit's ethereal ability, saw Yulunka waiting for him in front of his door.

"What's wrong?" Louis asked while sitting on the sofa and turning on the TV.

Yulunka sat beside Louis very naturally. Ever since she was cursed, she had no fear of Louis at all and seemed a bit casual.

"I attended the student council activity last night, that idiot Christina..."

"Now several of my followers are telling me about the accident that happened last night. That spirit-communicating game seems to be real, summoning a soul. But that idiot Christina still didn't succeed, and instead was beaten up by Nancy. Now she seems to have asked for leave and gone home."

After listening to what Yulunka said, Louis narrowed his eyes slightly.

"You mean, that severed hand can summon souls?"

"Hmm, if they didn't lie to me." Yulunka gave a definite answer.

Louis was instantly interested.

Summoning souls? There was such a good thing?

Ever since he obtained the Ghost-Eating Witchcraft, Louis had been paying attention to monsters like Evil Spirits, but unfortunately, this thing was not so easy to find.

Just as his Grandfather said, not all souls would stay in the human world. Even if many souls chose to stay for various reasons, most would be pacified by the church's mass unconsciously.

Plus, it was impossible for Louis to drip ox tears and go around the world looking for them; efficiency and reality simply didn't allow it!

Until now, Louis had only absorbed two souls that had just turned into Evil Spirits.

Even so, the two souls that had just turned into Evil Spirits made Louis feel very comfortable, his spirit greatly shaken, and his cultivation speed slightly accelerated. If there could be more and stronger Evil Spirits, the cultivation speed would inevitably accelerate further, even to a significant degree!

Therefore, Louis was very interested in this severed hand that could summon souls!

"Tell me in detail."

Seeing Louis was interested, Yulunka revealed a smile and spoke slowly.

After listening, "So, the severed hand should be in the hands of those students at the gathering now. Yulunka, have your sisters help check it out."

"Also, find out who brought that severed hand and look for the origin of this thing."

After speaking, Louis also started making phone calls.

Just as Louis was looking for the severed hand, in a community.

Mia locked herself in her room, holding the palm, saying "respond to me" again and again, trying to find someone.

The sound of her father outside rang out, but she ignored it.

Finally, after a night of effort, she found it.

Looking at the gentle woman opposite, Mia couldn't help but burst into tears. "Mom."

"Mia."

A hollow response came from the opposite side.

She finally saw her mother again.

"Mom, I allow you to possess me."

Feeling the pleasure like being in heaven, and that warmth like her mother's embrace.

She hugged the severed hand, lying on the table, sinking into a beautiful dream with a face full of happiness. But beside her, the drowned ghost she first possessed was looking at her coldly, with a smile on its mouth.

And beside the drowned ghost, there were actually all kinds of ghosts gathering. They surrounded Mia, rotating, wandering, licking, greedily looking at her body.

Their strength was not strong, and they couldn't snatch the bodies of normal people, but they longed for a new physical body, so they came up with this method.

Now, they only needed to bewitch Mia and let her become their helper, and each of them could possess her and feel the feeling of being alive!

The drowned ghost lowered its head and spoke in Mia's ear, "Sleep, sleep, my dear child~"

Mia's smile became even happier.

Sunlight shone in through the half-covered window, but it couldn't bring in any warmth; all there was was chill and... a prying gaze.

Opposite Mia's house, a telescope was pointing straight at this side.

A chubby white woman was reporting with an indifferent expression on the phone, "F-area, R-point, No. 5 has successfully found a host."

"Continue to observe and report the situation in time."

"Ok!"

The phone hung up, and the woman continued to pry with the telescope.

Until the afternoon.

Mia woke up. She heard her mother's voice. Her mother was telling her that her body couldn't withstand her mother's possession, and she must find another body to possess.

And the body suitable for her mother was...

Mia's eyes kept changing.

Looking at her mother, who seemed to have some water vapor on her, Mia strengthened her will. She, she wanted to talk to Nancy and let Nancy agree to be possessed once, just once.

"Mom, I'll go find Nancy."

At this moment.

Her father returned. He opened the door. "Mia? I think you should explain why you didn't eat and didn't go to school. Oh, have you been sleeping until now?"

Looking at her father, Mia couldn't help but ask the question in her heart. "Dad, did Mom really commit suicide back then?"

Her father sighed. "I've said it many times, your mother took a large amount of sleeping pills and committed suicide because of depression."

"No! You're lying! There were wood splinters in Mom's fingernails, and scratch marks on the door. Mom asked for help, but you were lying on the sofa and didn't know anything!" Mia's emotions suddenly became agitated.

From her perspective, her mother's ghost was telling her the truth.

And her father's face gradually became ferocious and terrifying, just like his true colors being revealed after his evil deeds were discovered.

"No, Mia, I have a letter here, it's your mother's..."

Her father walked over, trying to soothe his daughter.

However.

Pfft!

A knife was stabbed into her father's stomach.

Mia shook her head and walked out the door staggeringly. She was going to find Nancy.

She wanted to... she wanted to... let Nancy agree once... no!

She wanted her mother to come back! To accompany her forever!

The vehicle sped, rushing and crashing all the way, red light after red light, without ever slowing down.

At this time, Louis also found out who took the severed hand.

Looking at the photo in his hand, it was Mia.

Yulunka said while driving, "My sisters found a security guard who was patrolling the school at the time. According to him, it was this person who left in a panic carrying a backpack."

"The biggest suspect."

Louis didn't reply, thinking about the news his subordinate had just sent him. That severed hand had a great background.

Because the severed hand's ability was very obvious, after comparison and searching, it was found that it likely came from a Voodoo witch doctor with Indian ancestry.

At first, this witch doctor suddenly appeared as a medium and made quite a name for himself in Florida by virtue of his ability to make people see deceased persons through handshakes.

But one day, he announced to the outside world that he would go to the big city of New York to make big money to improve the lives of his Indian compatriots, but he never returned.

His ability was highly consistent with the ability revealed by this severed hand, so it was indeed very likely to be that witch doctor's hand.

As for where the witch doctor came from, because of the lack of information, it had not been found out for the time being.
