Chapter 65: Big sister, where is my little bear? Have you seen it?
"Run!" Zhang Tao was heavily injured at this moment, and cracks like those in parched mud had already appeared on his face.
This was his Ghost power.
Xu Qing gritted her teeth, her voice choked with sobs: "No, if we go, we go together!"
Without any hesitation, she charged forward, and seeing this, Zhang Miao and Liu Li followed suit.
The Night Watchers would never abandon their teammates to leave alone, just as they would never fear the darkness.
There were many opera performers in the corridor, each wearing costumes of different colors, their faces painted with makeup.
Zhang Miao's fingernails shimmered with a red light, easily tearing these performers apart; the torn performers eventually dissolved into a pool of mud.
But the number of performers was vast; as soon as one died, others would quickly fill the gap.
Zhang Miao broke into a cold sweat and suddenly remembered something: "The main body of the opera performer is in the main building. We can't go down from here; head up, go to the rooftop!"
If they were to collide head-on with the Ghost's main body, they would definitely die here.
The strength of this opera performer had already exceeded Level 5.
Liu Li nodded, and with a spin, the black circle beneath his feet began to expand, quickly enveloping several performers within it.
The performers held wooden blades and spears, but they were extremely sharp; a moment of carelessness could pierce flesh and blood.
As a breeze blew, a scent of pink rouge drifted over.
Zhang Miao tapped Liu Li, and the group hurriedly held their breath.
They saw Zhang Xue twisting her body as she walked out from within; her movements were extremely stiff.
Yet she was able to control Xu Qing and another Night Watcher behind her; the two stood motionless, already under her control.
'Zhang Xue's' body twitched slightly, and in the next second, a paper broadsword suddenly appeared in Xu Qing's hand, aimed at Liu Li's back.
"Watch out!" Zhang Miao exclaimed, inhaling some rouge through her nose and mouth, while simultaneously swinging her fingernails toward her back.
Boom—
Even though it was a paper broadsword, it was incomparably hard, and sparks flew as it collided with her fingernails.
Boom—
The rouge was instantly ignited, and the surroundings quickly plunged into darkness.
In the darkness lay the true center of the opera performer's Infernal Domain.
This was a stage, with the audience seats filled with people, while on stage was a troupe of opera performers; the sound of gongs and drums filled the air, and the surroundings were peaceful.
Suddenly, flames began to erupt; panic broke out in the audience, horses trampled over corpses, and the dried bodies were like mountains of fire.
Crying—
Screaming—
Voices calling for missing people.
The fire burned for a long time before a female performer with tattered clothes, a pale face, and blood hanging from the corner of her mouth walked out; her gaze was vacant, and she suddenly smiled.
She opened her mouth and sang her favorite line from when she was alive: "The gentleman is in the heart's desire~ The lady is in the moment of heartbreak~"
Boom—
Liu Li punched his own stomach hard, retched violently, and immediately recovered.
This was an illusion created by the center of the Infernal Domain; the entire hospital had been dragged into it by the Ghost. The level of this Infernal Domain was too terrifying.
"Big sister, hurry and go. It's coming soon." Liu Li was drenched in cold sweat; the terror of this Ghost was unimaginable, even more frightening than the Painting Ghost or the Demon Bear they had encountered before.
Zhang Miao sneered: "We can't leave anymore. Split up!"
Having entered this place, how could this Special Level Ghost let them go?
She now understood the fear of the man in the cotton-padded jacket, why he had frozen himself; this opera performer was simply not something they could deal with! "This Spirit Potion was given to me by the Doctor when I came. You take it and bring Zhang Tao and this person away; I will take Xu Qing."
"See you tomorrow." Zhang Miao's red lips parted slightly, and she turned, carrying the now-numb Xu Qing toward the other side.
Zhang Xue twisted her body and chased after them.
Liu Li carried Zhang Tao with one hand and hoisted the other person onto his shoulder, taking a different path.
"See you tomorrow!"
For a Night Watcher, nothing was more important than these three words.
The few Night Watchers who had entered with Zhang Miao to save people were now standing neatly in the plaza downstairs, quietly watching the opera performer on stage. In the middle, the performer in the pink costume raised her head slightly, her face stiffening.
"Put me down."
Liu Li, covered in sweat, had his chest torn open, and a chunk of flesh on his right leg had fallen off, revealing the stark white bone beneath.
But he didn't make a sound, still carrying Zhang Tao.
Liu Li snorted: "Stop yapping. One is already dead; if you die too, how am I, Liu Li, supposed to mix in the Special Dragon Team when I go back? Big sister will look down on me."
He had brought two people alone, and one had already died; he himself was also heavily injured.
What awaited them was nothing but death.
Zhang Tao pursed his lips and said nothing; he could see that Liu Li and he were no different.
He simply stopped trying to persuade him.
Thump—Liu Li kicked open the door to the stairwell, and the two slumped to the ground to rest.
The air they exhaled in large gulps was filled with the smell of blood.
At this moment, Zhang Tao lit a cigarette and stared at him, laughing.
Liu Li rolled his eyes, endured the excruciating pain, pulled up the sagging flesh on his leg, and bound it tightly with a strip of cloth: "What the hell are you laughing at? We're going to be wiped out this time."
Zhang Tao continued to laugh and shake his head: "The Strange Revival is becoming more and more terrifying. Our H City's original leader was also C+, but unfortunately, he died. Over these years, I've been waiting, and while waiting, all the old comrades have died out."
"If you were given another chance, would you choose the Club, the Society, or would you continue to join the Night Watchers?"
The path of a Night Watcher is not easy to walk, while those Ghost Tamers in the clubs live not for others, but only for themselves.
Liu Li stared at the floor above: "I haven't thought about it. My dad was a soldier; he said that a person needs ideals and a mission in this life. If I could do it all over again, I would probably still be a Night Watcher."
"Rest, rest. I won't let you die, at least not before me."
Zhang Tao smiled and said nothing, but in his heart, he whispered: I won't let you die either, at least not before me.
Clang—
A sound came, and Liu Li stood up, took out the Spirit Potion, and gave a cold smile.
He jammed the potion directly into his own throat.
"Meili, I'm so scared. Why is there opera singing everywhere? Are they ghosts?"
Tang Meili and Xu Jiajia were feeling their way down the stairs.
But there were many performers in the corridor, along with some ordinary people who had been controlled.
The ground was covered in blood; jumping out the window was impossible, as a force bounced them back. The entire hospital seemed to have formed a dome; they couldn't get in, and they couldn't get out.
Tang Meili's makeup was ruined, and cold sweat made her hair stick tightly to her face: "Keep it down. We're going to the main entrance; we'll definitely be able to get out."
Xu Jiajia trembled as she hugged Tang Meili's arm and asked: "Meili, aren't you afraid? I feel like you're so calm."
Before, if you had beaten her to death, she wouldn't have believed there were ghosts in the world.
Now, even if you beat her to death, she wouldn't believe there weren't.
Tang Meili pursed her lips, looked at the eye on Xu Jiajia's body, and said: "I've seen things even more terrifying than this."
Compared to these things, that little bear at home, covered in eyes—that was truly terrifying!.....................
Zhang Miao couldn't run anymore; she was completely exhausted, and Zhang Xue behind her was in relentless pursuit, making it hard to shake her off.
The performers that appeared one after another along the way left her covered in wounds.
Xu Qing was also at her limit; the two were at a dead end.
"It's no use. We can only find a place to hide and conceal our energy; perhaps there's still a glimmer of survival." Supporting Xu Qing, Zhang Miao opened a large door.
Bang bang bang—
Suddenly, a sound came to their ears.
Immediately after, the two saw a little girl squatting on the ground in the empty laboratory, playing with eyes that looked like ping-pong balls.
Seeming to sense them, the little girl turned her head and smiled: "Big sisters, have you seen my little bear?"
