Flanders did not expect someone to remind him. He turned around.
He saw a kind-looking old man looking at him with a smile.
Flanders was quite speechless. A kind-looking old man had appeared in such a creepy place.
The lice on the bald man’s head were obvious. There was something wrong with the old man!
With his strength, he naturally would not be afraid of anything. Moreover, Flanders himself was a big weirdo.
Flanders thought that it was quite fun for little strange creature to deceive big strange creature. He did not mind playing with this little strange creautre at all..
“Hello, old sir. May I ask why you want me to leave this place?”
“Young man, the ghost here will devour your soul. You will become a walking corpse.”
The old strange creature looked at Flanders’s soft and tender appearance and could not help but drool.
He liked this kind of young man the most. His blood was filled with a strong breath of life, and his soul was a great tonic.
Surely the king will reward me when he sees such a young man.
The old man slowly approached the young man.
“Old man, why are you floating when you walk?”
“My leg is injured. Young man, can you carry me?”
“Okay!”
Flanders did not care about the old man’s abnormal condition and carried him on his back.
Old strange creature really did not expect this young man to be so gullible.
He originally just wanted to offer the young man to the ghost king in the outer layer of the lair. Seeing that the young man was so gullible, he felt that he could enjoy the flesh and soul of this young man by himself.
“Young man, don’t go to the lair. There lies the king of the chilly wind. He specializes in eating young men who pass by the ghost lair.”
The old man thought of scaring away the young man who was carrying him. Then, he went to a place where there was no one around. That was the time for him to make his move.
Flanders felt another strange creature approaching quickly. He pretended to carry the old man away from the entrance of the lair.
“Old Man! Where are you going?”
Flanders and the old man turned around when they heard the voice.
They saw an old woman holding a walking stick and shouting at them.
Flanders stopped.
“Don’t stop, young man!”
“Hurry up and leave!”
The old man did not want to care about the old woman at all. He kept urging Flanders to leave.
“Old man, this old woman looks very pitiful. Is she your wife?”
After the old man heard Flanders’s words, he quickly denied that the old woman had anything to do with him.
“Young man, you’re right. I’m the old man’s wife!”
“It’s not easy for the two of us. We wander around the entrance of the lair all day, informing the passers-by to pay attention to their safety.”
The old man secretly transmitted his voice to the old woman, “Old Man, this food is mine. Don’t you dare try anything.”
“Hehe! Everyone who sees it will get a share. What is your food? It is our food.”
The two ghosts thought that they were very secretive.
In fact, Flanders heard everything they said clearly.
“The flesh and soul are mine. You can only gnaw on the bones!”
“You old hag, you wish!”
“It is all yours. I will tell the king of the chilly wind that you won’t get anything.”
“How dare you! Do you believe that I’ll deal with you right now?!”
“You think I’m afraid? Who wouldn’t be tempted by this delicious food? If you can’t even share, then let’s both stop eating!”
The old strange creature rolled its eyes and came up with a plan.
It showed a pained expression on its face and pretended to be helpless.
It agreed to give the old woman half of the meat.
Flanders did not say anything. He would do whatever the old strange creature told him to do.
Food was served.
The two strange creatures had lost their judgment. They were both guarding against each other.
Their plan was to leave the entrance of the underground cave and kill each other before eating the young man.
After the two strange creatures finished their discussion, the old strange creature urged Flanders to leave.
“Young man, where are you from?”
“I’m from Renzburg!”
Renzburg was very close to the ghost lair. The people of Renzburg knew the dangers of the ghost lair, so they would not come to the ghost catacombs.
“Renzburg is a good place! Who are your family members?”
They heard that Flanders was from Renzburg, and the two old strange creatures looked at each other.
Not only were they going to eat this young man, but they were also going to eat the young man’s whole family.
Rattle
“Are you thinking of eating my family too?!”
“Ah! How do you know?!”
“No! Don’t think too much!”
The two old strange creatures quickly denied it!
The young man’s strange laughter made the two of them feel that something was wrong.
“Young man, put me down!”
Old strange creature realized that the young man who was carrying him had turned into a scarecrow. He felt extremely terrified.
[Fear Points +2,000]
[Fear Points +2,500]
“Ah…”
An A+ rank strange creature aura was released. The old strange creature was so scared that he did not dare to move at all!
The old strange creature saw that the situation was not right and turned into a wisp of green smoke to escape!
Rattle!
“Can you escape?”
The old strange creature turned into a puff of green smoke and floated into the underground cave. The first thing he did was to look for the king of the chilly wind.
“My king, save me.”
King of the chilly wind did not speak as he looked at the old strange creature. The old strange creature felt goosebumps all over her body.
When the king of the chilly wind did not speak, it meant that he was going to kill someone!
“My king, please spare my life!”
“Blargh!”
“Does that strange creature outside look like me?”
The old strange creature who was begging for his life raised his head. He was instantly scared half to death!
The person she was kowtowing to was not the king of the chilly wind, but the scarecrow!
After taking a closer look, he realized that she was still at the entrance of the lair. He had not escaped into the caverns at all.
The five-colored light wrapped around the old strange creature. Soon, Flanders discovered that he was unable to absorb the old strange creature’s life force.
[The opponent is a soul entity. The five-colored light is unable to absorb the soul power.]
The system’s voice sounded in Flanders’s ears.
He casually released the Descending of Fear, and the two strange creatures fell into the illusion of fear.
He entered the sea of consciousness and came under the statue of the demon god of fear.
“System, how can I absorb the soul power?”
[Fear Mall System.]
The Demon of Fear system pointed out the way, and Flanders entered the Fear Mall.
He found a skill book in the store, called Soul Eater.
This was a magical skill book. After learning the Soul Eater, one could absorb soul power, and soul power could strengthen one’s soul.
A strong soul could increase the power of one’s skill.
However, this Soul Eater required two billion fear points.
Flanders’s fear points were now 2.1 billion, which was just enough to buy this book.
He bought the Soul Eater without hesitation. After learning it, Flanders could feel the power of the Soul Eater.
[Soul Eater: No matter how powerful a soul is, it will still be defeated by the Soul Eater. Each of your attacks will absorb the soul of the enemy until the soul of the enemy dies.]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming more than one billion fear points. You have obtained the right to use the demon god statue of fear once.]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming more than two billion fear points. You have obtained the right to use the demon god statue of fear once.]
It was an unexpected gain. Flanders had never expected that he would obtain the right to use the demon god statue of fear once again.
Rattle!
This time, Flanders released a five-colored ray of light, and it was effective.
The old woman strangely felt that her soul power was slowly disappearing, and she cried out in fear.
The old woman’s consciousness became more and more blurry, and her body became more and more transparent.
“Spare…”
Before she could finish her words, the old woman strange creature completely disappeared from this world.
The old man was so scared that he was trembling.
Rattle!
“Be obedient, and I’ll spare your life!”
“Your Majesty, Spare my Life!”
“I’ll definitely be obedient!”
The old man watched the old woman mysteriously disappear. He was sure that the old woman’s soul power had been absorbed by someone.
After the strange creatures from the ghost lair were killed, it wouldn’t take long for them to be resurrected again. However, they would lose some of their strength!
If its soul power was absorbed, it would mean that it was completely dead and could no longer be revived.
This was the first time the old strange creature had seen an existence that could absorb soul power.
In the past, the strange creatures had only been killed or captured. They had never had their soul power absorbed.
It was impossible for the mages to kill them completely unless the entire ghost lair disappeared.
How could an existence like the ghost lair disappear? Otherwise, it would not have existed for thousands of years!
The old strange creature’s heart was filled with fear. It did not want to die!
It wanted to escape!
It thought of bringing the scarecrow to the king of the chilly wind and letting the king take care of the scarecrow!
