Chapter 12 Spirit of Grievance 1

"First update. Ask for red tickets and collect them!"

There was silence around, and even the air seemed to stop flowing.

They carefully glanced around and did not let go of any raised mound or shadow, but never found anything. The whisper disappeared, and even they themselves thought that what they had just heard was just an illusion when they were nervous.

"Maybe you are wrong." Knight Kay patted Leo on the shoulder, "You're too nervous."

Liou is sure he heard it correctly. In the field of magic and monsters, except for erudite, only mages and alchemists are the most erudite. He dared to swear by his surname, which was indeed a whisper of the ghost's soul. Every sound of it is deeply rooted in people's hearts. Although it is not as demagogic as the sea monster, it can also make people full of illusions and give up resistance. Of course, that's for those who are not determined. None of the three people present, including him, will be trapped by him.

But at this moment, he can't explain it at length.

"It's nearby." Leo held the sword tightly. He felt that his palms were covered with cold sweat, and his body was as tight as a bow and arrow full of strings. "But I don't know where it will suddenly emerge."

His tone was firm, but he was stubborn in the eyes of the knight Kay.

"Then wait for it to come out of the ground like a mouse!" The knight said, "We have to move on. Go to the cemetery center! I haven't explored it yet."

Li Ou opened his mouth and finally put away the idea of dissuade him. He knows that it is meaningless. What the knights determine is also as paranoid as a stubborn stone. Only Lu Yuewu nodded to him, making him feel a little better.

They continued to move forward, passing by gray tombstones.

Suddenly, a cool breeze blew, mixed with the annoying cry of the night owl, as if the ghost was crying and howling. For a moment, Leo felt something cold lying on his back and exhaled a chill that made him creepy to the back of his neck. He only felt that his body was like being in an ice cellar, and his limbs were as stiff as stones. He shivered and suddenly woke up.

"Moon Dance!" He shouted.

Wave the sword back at the same time.

The sword cut into the air, but he obviously felt a trace of weight and left his body.

He heard two consecutive long swords breaking through the air, and whispered again. But this time it was extremely clear, like the lover's love words, like the mother's nagging, and all kinds of words piled up, and their brains hit their heads.

Li Ou hurriedly turned around and happened to see a ghost dodging easily under the girl's sword. Knight Kay shouted and joined the battle circle. His enchanted sword scratched the ghost's body, but saw that the ghost's body oscillated like a wave of water, and then recovered as before. The damage it brings is minimal.

Kay was extremely surprised. This is obviously different from what he expected. His forehead was quickly covered with cold sweat: he couldn't imagine what would have happened if he had bumped into a ghost a few days ago...

Li Ou also looked surprised - it was a magic sword.

But at this moment, he is no longer in the mood to guess what spells are attached to the standard weapons of the White Rose Knights. He threw his sword to the other party, "Cover!"

The sword with simple magic damage is more effective than the knight sword made of fine steel.

The weapon used by Leo was light. Kai weighed it and quickly adapted to the great difference of the long sword. The sword waved the trail in his hand, like a barrier that blocked the ghost's collision and was impenetrable. Each blow made the ghost wail silently, and his hazy face was twisted in bursts.

Lu Yuewu took the opportunity to pull up, and the red Luan sword flashed a silver light even in the dark. However, the golden blade seemed to break into the air and passed through the ghost's body without hindrance.

Her red sword has lost its strength and is now just a sharp steel forged sword. This cannot hurt the ghost that has lost its entity and exists as a spiritual body at the boundary of life and death.

"Use your scabbard!" Li Ou reminded.

On the scabbard of the red Luan sword, the magic array is still running, and the flowing magic is enough to cause damage to the ghost. She quickly put her sword back into the sheath and then took a step forward. The scabbard is like lightning, thrusting directly into the ghost's body.

The ghost dissipated in a howling that went straight into the soul, turning into ashes and condensed into a wisp of death.

"Mr. Leo, thank you for your weapon." Knight Kay held the sword in both hands and handed back the sword.

The longer he stays here and the more he encounters, the more Leo feels that his ridiculous complacency can threaten his life. He hurried to this and underestimated the current situation. If it hadn't happened to meet a knight with superb swordsmanship, I'm afraid he and Lu Yuewu would have had to escape in confusion tonight. For various reasons, Leo did not reach out to pick it up.

"It is more useful in your hands." He said.

A moment ago, even if Kay held a sharp sword, he could only bring damage to the ghost, but he could not be fatal. Leo has made up his mind to cast another magic sword. And - he looked at the girl who carefully wiped the scabbard with velvet - she also needed a sharp blade that could deal with monsters.

"In this case," the knight Kai did not refuse much. He took the opportunity to put his sword around his waist and then handed his knight's sword to Li Ou. "It is temporarily used for self-defense." He saw Li Ou's surprise, and he smiled, "I don't believe in the practice of 'swords in people, swords die'." The knight explained, "If that's the case, I have died three or five times."

They sorted out a little and continued to move forward.

The cemetery, which is rarely visited, seems to be a scene of its own: they bypassed the dark green, sticky and oily stagnant lake in the pool and pass by the depression where white bones are exposed and the corpse water is stored. When they climbed up a mound numbly, they suddenly found that there was a faint green fire just ahead. It is not like phosphorus fire and is always as bright as before.

"Who lit the fire there?" The knight couldn't help asking.

Li Ou squeezed his lips and did not answer. The weird scene is creepy. He felt that Lu Yuewu leaned closer to him.

But at the moment of his silence, the firelight seemed to be blown by the flowing wind. Under the shaking of the firelight, they all clearly saw a faint shadow appearing in the faint fire. Its body is twisting, as if it were dancing a crazy dance.

"It's a ghost." Leo said.

"What is it doing?"

Who knows? He is not a ghost.

Li Omer was silent. He pulled Lu Yuewu hidden behind a big stone, and his back was close to the rough surface of the cold stone, as if only this could he feel a little soft security in his heart.

"Knight Kay, what are you going to do?" Leo asked in a low voice. According to his opinion, they should have left early. His intuition told him that this ghost was not the ordinary goods that needed them to fight hard before.

"Look again." The knight replied without thinking.

His words are magnificent and upright. But Leo listened to many similar stories and knew that such a choice usually meant that there was no good end. Maybe the knight's sense of glory is at the threw of the moment. Li Ou thought.

"Moon dance, how about you?" His voice is almost inaudible.

"You are an employer."

Now Leo can't figure out what she thinks. But he was sure that the girl must have guessed what he was thinking. He is just not sure how the girl will look at him in the end.

In hesitation, he heard the knight's voice in shock but with joy.

"Look." The girl pulled his sleeve.

The firelight gradually faded away, but the ghost like a phantom gradually became clear, as if it had absorbed all the light. It's just that its body is not as green as fire, nor as hazy as a ghost. Its body is more like a real flesh and blood body, shining red all over its body.

This is not right.

Li Ou looked back and happened to see the urgency of the great wish in the eyes of the knight Kay.

"Are you alone and come for it without a servant?"

"I have been chasing it for seven days, waiting for its arrival every night." Knight Kay suddenly noticed that Leo's expression had become strange and his eyes were wary of his rebirth. "What's the problem?"

"Did you have any anticipation of this?" Li Ou pointed to the silent shouting ghost.

"What do you expect?"

"It appears."

"If I could expect when it would appear, how could I waste seven days here?" Knight Kay hummed dissatisfiedly, "It is a ghost that can go to heaven and earth without any entity, and it is not the sun and stars hanging high in the sky."

"What are you going to do with it? Exorcising evil? Kill it or purify it?"

"Mr. Leo, please pay attention to your tone!" The knight shouted at him, "Are you doubting the White Rose Knight?"

"I just want to know your true intentions," Leoton said, "and then remind you..."

"What do you remind me?"

Liou chose to avoid the topic.

"Mr. Knight, I don't know where your 'sin' comes from and how to punish it. Ghosts will open their mouths, but you and I are not of its kind, and we can't understand their souls whispering. You came here for it. Is it possible to clear its grievances? The ghost on the top of Xiaoqiu was looking around, and Leo felt that it had smelled the smell of living people. But in what capacity and in what manner do you want to negotiate with it? The same kind of posture may be good..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words were spoken, Kay Knight's anger calmed down inexplicably and even disappeared.

"Your unyield will get annoyed." He whispered.

"It has nothing to do with secrets."

After hesitating for a while, the knight Kay still said, "It's not actually a ghost..."

Li Ou suddenly interrupted him.

"It seems that there is no need for me to remind you, Mr. Knight."

"Mr. Li Ou, you..."

"I actually want to say this." Li Ou smiled and shrugged his shoulders. "Although strong curiosity is a necessary qualification for the success of alchemists, I can still distinguish when I can always restrain it."

"Liou, it's not a ghost. What is that?" Lu Yuewu doesn't seem to be able to stand the vague puzzles between them. She seemed to ask impatiently, but Leo unexpectedly heard curiosity and worry from her plain question.

"Red spirit body, clear flesh and blood. It's a resentment."

"What is resentment?"

"Only those who die unjustly can become resentful spirits." Li Ou looked at the knight beside him and planned to go straight out, exposed to the resentment that was more difficult to deal with than the ghost, and then continued, "It can speak out. Probably some IQ."
