Chapter 1962

"Hold onto my hand!!"

"Ahhhhh!!! My eye! My eye!!!"

"Shouts of anger and screams rang out together, completely shattering the building's tranquility."

"Clutching Lin An's arm tightly, Gusman instinctively felt like a sack of trash, being hoisted up by Lin An and taking off. He had no time to slow down, nor to slowly open the door; hearing a bang, he slammed headfirst into the glass door, the sharp glass shards slicing his face bloody."

"Dizzy and light-headed, in utter disarray."

"Yet despite Lin An's rough treatment, Gusman felt no resentment, only shock and gratitude!"

"There's no other reason."

"In the reflection of the shattered glass, he suddenly saw an incredibly horrifying scene!"

"Inside the room, Shen She screamed while covering his face, his legs were lifted by something and twisted tightly like a braid."

"It was as if an invisible evil ghost had yanked him up to the ceiling to devour him, leaving him unable to resist at all."

"Meanwhile, Qing Kai, whom Shen She had relied upon as a backer, rushed to flee the room, completely disregarding Shen She's life or death."

"Faced with this scene, Gusman, being dragged while running, felt it was all too sudden!"

"Not only could he not fathom why a ghost would appear above their heads."

"He also couldn't understand why Lin An's reaction was so fast—so fast it was as if Lin An had known this all along!"

"\"77!? How did you discover it!? You already knew where it was!? \""

"Head down, running madly, Lin An, without looking back, quickly said:"

"\"No! \""

"\"I only figured it out after seeing the photo! \""

"\"That ghost wasn't staying in the room; it had been following us, then jumped in here before we entered! \""

"His words were simple yet shocking; as he spoke, a hint of solemnity flashed in Lin An's eyes."

"That ghost had been targeting them since the mission began!"

"His previous judgment was wrong!"

"It wasn't that someone had jumped down earlier; it was the ghost that jumped up! That's why there were no corpses on the ground, and why the stone Shen She picked up ended up in the room!"

"His reaction wasn't slow; Ju Mo's face turned pale, and he instantly understood Lin An's meaning."

"\"It's following us!? So...!? \""

"\"So this ghost doesn't belong here! It appeared when we solved the first clue! That chill is it! \""

"\"Thud thud! Thud! Thud! \""

"While dragging Ju Mo and sprinting downstairs, Lin An desperately tried to figure out what was going on."

"If the ghost had appeared earlier, why didn't it attack then, but only now?"

"What triggers the danger?"

"There's a ghost in the apartment; could there be a second ghost here as well?"

"Although logically it's impossible for a ghost to appear in winter, under Chu An's influence Lin An refuses to give up! Just as the mission's knowledge says, if something lacks logic, it's due to insufficient information! The observation angle is insufficient!"

"\"77!? Is it attacking now because of the camera!? That... uh... is the camera the key point!? \""

"With a bang, his right hand bumped against the staircase."

"Gusman endured the pain and likewise racked his brain. Unlike Qing Kai and others who looked down on Lin An, thinking a War Star Level cognition was too low to say anything!"

"In his view, Lin An was just thinking, too lazy to waste words! But whenever Lin An spoke, each time he hit the nail on the head!"

"\"Possible! \""

"\"The system said we should rush to the next information point as soon as possible; this likely hints that what's here is crucial, and we already have danger nearby! \""

"\"If we reverse-engineer from this... \""

His thoughts raced; for some reason, facing the sudden death crisis, Lin An faintly felt that his vanished mental power had loosened a bit, helping him think.

No, to be precise, this power wasn't mental power; it was more like the Faith Power he had just grasped.

He had no time to wonder what was going on; as a flood of clues and information quickly pieced together, a logical thread instantly surfaced in Lin An's mind.

"Eyeballs, multiple angles, ghosts, hurry over, camera... reflection!?"

"Damn it...!"

His face slightly changed; Lin An's running steps suddenly halted, and he instantly turned his head to look at the dark staircase.

Faced with Lin An's sudden stop, Gu Siman also jerked, knowing Lin An had discovered something.

"77!? What's going on!? Aren't we running anymore!?"

He blurted out in a panic, and without realizing it, Gu Siman hadn't noticed he had already taken Lin An as his mainstay.

"We can't run... or rather, we cannot run."

Lin An's face grim, he spoke quickly.

"I think I know what's going on; that camera is indeed a key Prop, it might help us see the ghost! Judging by the ghost's trampling of the sign, it is invisible but has a physical form."

"If we don't retrieve the camera, continuing to run will still get us killed."

"The camera probably has other uses; the ghost attacking to kill likely aims to stop us from getting the camera!"

After saying that, Lin An sighed and couldn't help but wryly smile.

Of course, the ghost killing people could also be because they saw the ghost, and Shen She was the unlucky first to see the reflection. Although the whole logic still has many inconsistencies, the camera must be a key Prop!

"So you want to go back to save people!? No.. it's to snatch back the camera!?"

His expression changed drastically; the giant demon looked at Lin An as if he were a madman.

Even if the ghost had a physical form and could possibly be hurt! But judging by that ghost's leaping ability, with their current strength they are no match!

"Let's take a gamble, bet that the system won't let us be wiped out directly! It won't be that hopeless! It should have other restrictions, and this mission might not be so "simple"!"

As his words fell, Lin An without hesitation tossed aside the giant demon and turned, rushing upstairs.

He couldn't explain to the giant that he had a restart; even if he lost the bet, he still had the capital to try again!

Moreover, he currently possesses too little information, so little that even Gao Tian and his group haven't found it. Lin An has no doubt that his current understanding of the ghost skull absolutely fails to meet the mission requirements!

(Even if it's death, I must obtain more information before I die!)

"Boom boom boom! Boom!"

As Lin An's footsteps grew farther away, Gusman, who had been thrown onto the stairs, instantly turned deathly pale.

Damn it! This brat actually ran back!

"77! You must come back!"

"Damn it! I don't want to stay here waiting to die!"

For the first time in his life, he hoped that a certain foreign race would definitely not die.

Staring at the pitch-black stairs, Gusman almost burst into tears.

May the giant's ancestors bless us; there must absolutely not be a second ghost appearing here!
