Chapter 160: Fear of the Deep Sea(2/3)
After becoming a ghost, you will lose your lifespan. Unless you are purified or swallowed by other ghosts, you will be trapped at the bottom of the sea and suffer eternal torture.
The long period of mental torture has already caused them to lose all their humanity, leaving only the instinct to attack and devour each other.
After surrounding Muyou for a while, some ghosts gradually became bolder and penetrated through Muyou's body.
Mu You suddenly felt a chill in his body, and a tiny piece of his soul was torn off. His blood volume did not decrease, but his spirit became sluggish.
This loss was quickly recovered, but with so many ghosts, if one comes up to bite him, his spirit will be exhausted in an instant, and he will fall into a coma. His soul will be eaten by the ghosts, and he will become a skeleton under the sea from then on.
One...
At this time, the omniscient crystal has already shown the attributes of a ghost.
[Ordinary ghost (level 3-7): attack power 3-21, health value 200-1000, magic value 100-900, ability: soul bite, possessed skeleton. Negative talent: earth binding, unable to leave the place of death
Too far.】
These ghosts are very weak, but a very troublesome thing is that they are immune to physical attacks. All physical damage will directly penetrate them and cannot cause damage.
Fortunately, they are not immune to magic, otherwise they would really be invincible.
Mu You directly released a circle of fire, and the blazing flames rolled past, driving away a circle of resentful spirits around.
But these guys are not very afraid of fire magic. In an environment like the seabed, fire cannot exert much power and will be greatly weakened when it appears. Magic with other attributes has insufficient attack power.
The only things that can really cause restraint damage to ghosts and make them fearful are the attack magic of thunder and holy light.
Unfortunately, Mu You does not have these two spells at hand now, but he does have another weapon that can effectively kill ghosts-Vampire Claws!
The casting material of the Vampire Claw is the 'Soul Purifying Stone', which is a stone specially used to destroy the soul. Therefore, although the Vampire Claw is a physical weapon, it can directly attack ghosts.
Mu You directly switched to the vampire skin. It is just dusk now, and the attribute bonus of the Night King has not yet taken effect, but it is enough to have claw weapons that can be used.
Mu You pierced a ghost behind him that was trying to attack him.
The claws inserted into the ghost's body, and there was a sizzling sound, like the sound of roasted meat melting.
The ghost wailed in pain, and its health dropped rapidly. Mu You tightened his claws and strangled the ghost completely.
[You killed an ordinary ghost (level 4) and gained 4 experience points.]
There is no lifespan gained after killing this thing, and there is no drop reward. It is far less cost-effective than killing normal monsters.
But at least he was able to gain experience. Seeing the experience bar slowly rising, Mu You gained some motivation. He waved his claws to bully these little ghosts, killing them all at the bottom of the sea, and soon used up the few remaining experience bars.
Fill up.
[Experience value: 645/640, do you want to upgrade?]
Mu You was promoted to level nine on the spot. He added 1.5 points of free attributes to all his attributes. In addition to 1 point of agility and 2 points of intelligence, he added physical fitness to the remaining two points to continue to increase the upper limit of his health.
p>
His current attributes are: 12 points of strength, 24 points of agility, 36 points of intelligence, and 14 points of constitution.
The density of ghosts on the seabed is high enough, so killing monsters and upgrading is very exciting. However, as more and more ghosts are attracted, Mu You will soon be unable to kill them.
Seeing that he was about to be surrounded by dense green shadows, Mu You decisively switched to ghost form and assimilated into one of the ghosts.
After eliminating the breath of living people, the ghosts finally calmed down a bit, looking around confusedly, as if they were looking for where the living life had been hidden.
Mu You took advantage of the one-minute ghost time to escape from the siege of the ghosts, found a nearby submarine peak without skeletons, and lay down on the narrow top of the mountain.
Looking at the hordes of ghosts below, almost filling the bottom of the sea, Mu You also felt his scalp numb. This scene was really weird to the extreme. Anyone with a poor psychological quality would have been frightened and fainted.
p>
Shaking his head, Mu You took out the lamppost from his backpack and shook the bell on it.
The bell rang, and the lamppost above quickly dimmed. A weak soul figure emerged in the light, appearing to be a man wearing a pirate hat.
"Hey, I've arrived at the place where the Ghost sank. Where is your ship?"
Mu You asked in Star Spirit language. When he was brushing ghosts just now, he had already scanned the surroundings. There were only dense skeletons and mud on the seabed, and there was no trace of any ship at all.
In such a large sea area, it is impossible to find the ship without some guidance.
Unexpectedly, Willy became excited as soon as he appeared this time. He lay on the edge of the lamppost and scanned the bottom of the sea: "I can feel it! It's nearby...the breath of the enemy, and my beloved ship..."
"In which direction?"
"Over there!" Willy felt it and quickly pointed out a direction.
Mu You had no choice but to switch to his ghost form, rush in his direction, and then continue to search under his guidance.
I just followed the directions back and forth for almost an hour, and Willy's prompts finally stopped.
"This is it!"
Mu You was floating in the sky far away from the bottom of the sea. Willy in the lamppost excitedly pointed downwards and opened the mouth.
"Are you sure?"
Mu You glanced down, and there was just a flat seabed of sand covered with skeletons, and it was hard to tell that a large ship was buried.
"It can't be wrong! Right under our feet, the smell of my poor Ghost, and the dirty and disgusting smell of the traitors!"
Seeing that Willy's eyes were red and his whole body was shaking with excitement, Mu You hurriedly put him back into his backpack. Don't let his excited soul dissipate before he found the boat.
Mu You switched to ghost form, sank into the seabed sand, and searched around.
However, except for skeletons and sand, there was nothing else nearby.
Seeing that the time to enter the ghost form was coming soon, Mu You was thinking about switching back to the physical body and taking out the pumpkin lantern to take a photo.
As a result, as soon as I returned to my physical form, I suddenly felt weak under my feet.
The sand below seemed to be hollow, unable to bear his weight, and turned into quicksand, swallowing him directly.
Suddenly falling into the depths of the sand, and still falling at a rapid speed, Mu You was surprised, but did not struggle because he had already seen the prompts in his mind.
[You have entered the ‘Abyss of the Dead’, which is a passage set aside by a group of undead pirates in order to preserve their ships and the remaining humanity, hoping that one day they will have the opportunity to see the light of day again.]
Mu You slid down the path of the dead, and a few minutes later, he fell into a deeper and darker sea.
Under the sea, is there another sea area?
Mu You didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly swam toward a bright spot somewhere above.
In this claustrophobic deep sea, which is so dark that there is no light, any land creature will subconsciously move towards that little bit of light.
After a while, Mu You penetrated the light and surfaced.
What appeared in front of him was a vast space with a height of sixty or seventy meters, and he was lying on the stalactites on the shore.
Judging from the location, this should be a hollow stone layer between the bottom of the Devil's Sea and the deeper sea.
At the same time, another reminder appeared in his mind: [You have reached the shipwreck, the resting place for the souls of a group of pirate outlaws.]
"Is this really where it is..."
Mu You climbed ashore, held a magic wand, and scanned the surrounding environment.
There is air in this space, and there are many luminous aquatic plants growing, which illuminates this place.
The ground is filled with quicksand and various fish skeletons. The surrounding boulders are like the fingers of death, blocking other directions and isolating a conspicuous path in this space.
p>
Mu You walked along the path, stepping on dead bones.
After passing a stone arch, Mu You saw the giant ship moored in the sand in the distance.
It was a two-masted seagoing ship, nearly a hundred meters long, and its mast almost reached the ceiling of the stone layer above.
However, this majestic giant ship was broken into two pieces from the middle, which was extremely regrettable.
Mu You had no time to regret what happened to the ship, because as he approached, ghosts quickly emerged from the hull.
As expected, these ghosts were all dressed up as pirates, holding muskets and swords. Looking at Mu You in the distance, they seemed to be wild beasts that had discovered fresh meat, and they all rushed toward him with wild laughter.
The level of these pirate ghosts is higher than that of the ghosts on the seabed, generally between level 5 and 10, and they seem to still retain considerable intelligence, and they actually know how to cooperate in their actions!
Mu You used the Vampire Claw to eliminate several pirate ghosts, but there was still the same problem. There were too many, so he had to switch to ghost form and retreat to the shore.
Fortunately, these ghosts are restricted by the earth binding and cannot leave the ship too far, so they cannot catch up to the entrance here for the time being.
Mu You stood in the distance and observed a circle. There were at least four hundred pirate ghosts here.
If there was enough time, Mu You wouldn't mind slowly grinding away these ghosts, but the problem was that he was very pressed for time. It was almost eight o'clock in the evening, and he only had the last two hours left.
In this situation, it seems that only Shadow Ghost can take action...
Mu You first opened his backpack, called Vivian out, and asked her if shadow ghosts could deal with ghosts.
"Of course, shadow ghost is a kind of semi-spiritual body. It can directly attack ghosts without possessing them." Vivian said.
"Great!"
Hearing that there was no need to possess someone, Mu You immediately felt a lot more relaxed. Otherwise, in this ghostly place where resurrection is impossible, it would be really difficult to safely use shadow ghosts.
Taking out the shadow ghost box, Mu You rushed to the pirate ship again, threw the box among the dead souls, and then quickly retreated before the ghosts surrounded him.
Here, Vivian has remotely used magic to open the box, released the shadow ghost, and then used the flying spell to summon the box back.
To be continued...
