049 Frontal encounter (3)
At the same time, as he met two long-tongued wives on the road, the news that Xu Mu, the undead mage, was about to investigate the strange incident, had spread throughout the castle.
Among them, Viscount Paul and Vincent contributed to the fire. Use this matter to stabilize the situation first, so as not to escape from fear. At least in the eyes of those foolish men and women, just to see the terrible method, the undead mage who manipulates the dead corpse is no less than the strange existence that controls the power of mysterious curse.
In serious cases, Xu Mu's strength and experience were exaggerated, which made the castle, which was originally floating, suddenly had hope. Some servants who were preparing to escape without permission were also holding their hopes to see if Xu Mu, the evil undead mage, could deal with the more evil weirdness.
Xu Mu didn't care what others thought. He was concentrating at this time, facing the strangeness for the first time. His heart was a little nervous. The back of his hand holding the staff was tensed and blue veins appeared.
Suddenly, a sharp roar came from the thick fog, and a white light suddenly rushed out and attacked Xu Mu.
Accompanied by this white light, there was a faint smell similar to fishy fish.
When Xu Mu smelled the fishy smell, his mind dizzy and almost lost consciousness. Fortunately, he had a trace of true spirit placed on the big bell in the cemetery. He was just a little dazed and soon returned to Qingming. He happened to see a twisted and hideous ghost face flying towards him with a white light.
Xu Mu immediately ordered the evil spirit Maxim to step forward and intercept.
The evil spirit Maxim was like a lion of his kind who had discovered a similar type. He had been restless for a long time. After receiving the order, he immediately howled, like a wild dog rushing out wildly.
The next moment, there was a sting, as if the wire was short-circuited. The evil spirit Maxim bumped into the white light head-on. However, Xu Mu unexpectedly did not expect that as soon as the two collided, they immediately distinguished their strength. It was not that the suspected strange ghost was too strong but too weak. When they touched the evil spirit Maxim, they couldn't hold on for a single round, and immediately let out a shrill scream, as if the monkey burned to his butt, and the thorn slid back faster than when it came out.
Xu Mu couldn't help but be stunned. This weirdness is too cowardly! He laid the groundwork before his appearance for so long, and kept creating a terrifying atmosphere. He was also full of momentum just now and almost frightened Xu Mu. Unexpectedly, he was so weak when he fought. But Xu Mu was not happy, but frowned, because as far as he knew, it was impossible to have such a weak weirdness. If the weirdness was really so weak, it would have been cracked long ago and could not be left now. Then there was only one possibility that this thing was not weird, but just a part of the weirdness, or a vassal for it to drive it.
The evil spirit Maxim immediately chased in, but rushed into the room without finding any trace. Even the thick fog and white air that was originally filled with the house disappeared.
Xu Mu stood at the door and glanced inside, and it was obvious that the thing had just escaped.
At this time, Butler Lawns also woke up, snorted, regained his mind, but his face was pale, as if he had experienced something bad. Fortunately, the old butler was strong-willed and woke up in advance, otherwise it would be hard to say whether he could wake up in a few minutes.
"Thank you, Master Green!" Butler Lawns understood that there was more danger just now, and hurriedly thanked Xu Mu.
Xu Mu waved his hand and signaled him to go back first, so he didn't have to accompany him here, and then walked into the house step by step.
Although Xu Mu still did not dare to be careless and was vigilant and ready at any time after evading the suspected strange thing.
The room is not big, with bedding in the room messy bedding, the table beside the wall was tilted, chairs were thrown to the ground, and some supplies were thrown everywhere. The windows in the room were open because they were castles, and iron railings were poured on the windows for defense. At this time, the iron railings were covered with blood, and they should have been hit by someone. The impact was very strong and almost bent the iron bars of the iron fence.
However, Xu Mu looked around but found no body of the former gardener Gilmot.
Xu Mu frowned and ordered Maxim to return to his side to be on guard. Several other ghosts scattered and searched around...
A few minutes later, the anti-counterattack did not appear, and the ghosts searched everywhere could not find the dead gardener's body. They only found more than a dozen dead mice in the closet, some of which had just died, some had rotten, but did not emit any stench.
"Huh? The locations of these dead rats visit..." Xu Mu opened the cabinet door and saw at a glance that there was something wrong with the placement of these dead rats. It was actually a summoning array, which reminded him suddenly that when he first traveled through time, the magic arrays portrayed by Les and Old Bill were somewhat similar. "Is this gardener Gilmot also a cultist who was secretly developed by the Tower of Yin Ling?"
With this discovery, Xu Mu had a sudden inspiration and used the Death Spirit Vision.
Originally, Xu Mu didn't care about the horticulturist Gilmot, but now he found that the other party might be a cult, so this matter would be complicated.
Xu Mu always believed that the strangeness that killed Baron Ronanx was the same as the Yin Spirit Tower, including the strangeness that appeared in Wilson Castle this time, but the situation now is probably more complicated than he expected.
At this moment, Maxim, the evil spirit beside Xu Mu, suddenly looked out the door with vigilance, and made a scream through the spirit body, reminding Xu Mu to be careful.
Xu Mu looked up and saw that a white mist rose outside the door. Just like in the room just now, a white shadow leaned his head and shrank his head. He was observing Xu Mu, and found that Xu Mu was alert and immediately shrank back. Even the white mist outside the door quickly converged.
Xu Mu quickly chased after him and also ordered Maxim to take the lead, while he himself held the ghost's eye and prepared to use it at any time.
Just now, because he could not determine the opponent's strength by 100%, Xu Mu did not use the Ghost Eye as soon as possible. After the test just now, it was already confirmed that the opponent's strength was not strong and belonged to the category of ghosts. He could definitely use the Ghost Eye to restrain him. Since this is the case, Xu Mu did not hesitate.
But the ghost was very cunning. Xu Mu rushed out of the door and disappeared. Even Maxim, who had passed through the wall, did not catch up with him.
"Hmm? What's going on? That guy shouldn't have run so fast!" Xu Mu's heart slammed, turned on the Death Spirit's vision to observe the surroundings, but found no clues.
Because this ghost is different from the weird one in Baron Ronanx's house before.
There will be a trace of breath left wherever that strange place passes. This ghost appears with a large fog, and it will definitely be stained wherever it passes, just like the entire corridor and the room next to it are full of traces, which makes Death Spirit Vision unable to find the other person's true whereabouts.
Xu Mu let out a sigh, tightened the ghost's eye pendant in his hand, feeling a little disappointed, and returned to the house again, but no longer found any other clues, and the escaped ghost did not appear again.
