Chapter 106 Joseph Czech Kane
Mi Lan gritted her teeth and quickly followed Wen Shang's steps.
Another woman appeared on the mountain road.
"Jiajia!"
Lu Fei called out the girl's name in anguish. She was the only female player on their team and the one he secretly loved.
Yao Jun raised his hand and slapped Lu Fei on the back of the head: "Wake up! Even if you're in love, you have to consider the occasion!"
Mi Lan: "Ya Ya..."
Wang Baitao: "Mingcheng!"
Liu Yangyang waved to An Zhiwei who appeared in front of her and greeted her: "Hey, you didn't kill her completely!"
One by one, the dead players reappeared, their former comrades, relatives, and lovers forming a human-shaped barrier that blocked the path to the mountaintop.
"Everyone, wake up! Let's rush out together!" Yao Jun realized the situation was dire and that he couldn't manage alone, so he shouted to the crowd.
Wen Shang's forehead was covered in sweat. He gritted his teeth and said to Mi Lan, "Hold my hand and stay close to me!"
Ji Xingyi tried to help Jiang Lin fend off the surging corpses, but Jiang Lin pushed him away. The young man then kicked one of the corpses, sending it tumbling down the steps.
"Get out of the way," Jiang Lin said with a cold laugh, glancing at the man still blocking his way.
Ji Xingyi looked hurt, but still reached out and grabbed Jiang Lin's wrist.
Feeling the powerful force on his wrist, Jiang Lin snorted coldly, "I'm not Mi Lan. I can still clear the level without you. Let go!"
Ji Xingyi knew Jiang Lin was angry, so she still firmly protected her. Ming Lailai wasn't so lucky; her only teammate, Meng Shiyu, had just died, and she immediately ran to the male player beside her as the horde of corpses pounced on her.
Knowing she had little fighting ability, Ming Lailai could only use the horde of zombies to dodge their attacks. This immediately angered Yao Jun. When faced with a life-or-death situation, who would show mercy, especially when they weren't even on the same team? He shoved the girl hiding behind him and shouted angrily, "Get out of my way!"
Ming Lailai looked at Yao Jun's back, which was exposed to her as he fought with the corpse, her face hardened, and she ran faster, ramming her head and shoulder hard into Yao Jun's back.
Ming Lailai's strength was considerable, and Yao Jun lost his balance and fell down the steps.
The horde of corpses that had been attacking Ming Lailai immediately changed direction and swarmed towards Yao Jun, who was lying on his back, piling on top of him like a human pyramid. Taking advantage of the fact that the surrounding corpses were all drawn to Yao Jun, Ming Lailai quickly rushed towards the mountaintop!
"Yao Jun!" Lu Fei wanted to help, but was stopped by Yao Jun's screams.
"Run! I can revive!" Yao Jun realized he had no chance of escaping. Enduring the excruciating pain, he struggled against the corpses, trying to buy time for his teammates: "Lu Fei! Lead us to victory!"
Lu Fei's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at Ming Lailai, who was already rushing towards the mountaintop, with a look of hatred in his eyes.
Wen Shang's dagger was incredibly sharp, practically invincible. After dealing with the horde of corpses, he immediately led Mi Lan up the mountain. Wen Shang's teammate, Wang Baitao, followed closely behind.
"He actually has a knife?" Liu Yangyang asked in surprise as he dealt with the horde of corpses that surged towards him.
Weapons are not allowed in this instance at all; out of the 10 people, only Wen Shang brought a weapon.
“It’s a prop.” Jiang Lin glanced at Wen Shang’s back, then looked down and noticed the scattered bloodstains on the white steps.
"Let's go quickly!" Ji Xingyi snapped Shen Qu's neck and pulled Jiang Lin up to the villa on the mountaintop.
Ming Lailai arrived first, followed by Lu Fei, Mi Lan, Wen Shang, and Wang Baitao. When Jiang Lin and his two companions arrived last, they heard Ming Lailai scream.
Jiang Lin rushed into the villa. Finding no one on the first floor, Liu Yangyang immediately ran up to the third floor. Jiang Lin intended to follow, but her sharp eyes caught sight of a red plaid doll on the TV display cabinet. She paused, puzzled: Wasn't that a Cooper's house doll? How could it be here?
Time was of the essence for Jiang Lin. He turned and stepped onto the stairs, quickly ascending to the second floor. Upon entering, he was met with a gruesome visual shock. Not only him, but Liu Yangyang, Ji Xingyi, and the other players who had arrived earlier all stared in stunned silence at the scene before them.
The second floor of the villa was empty, and as far as the eye could see, it was all crimson.
On the pure white floor tiles, there was a bizarre array of a huge six-pointed star drawn with blood!
The blood source for drawing the six-pointed star array is Emilia, Liu Zhen, Michelle, Oramkis, and Angry.
The five psychics who arrived at the villa ahead of time were all brutally murdered. Blood was still flowing from Emilia's chest. Liu Zhen died a gruesome death, with a deep, bone-revealing wound on his back and three of his fingers severed. It was clear he had struggled violently before his death. Angrey's body was twisted, his carotid artery severed, and he died with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
Jiang Lin took out a piece of drawing paper from his pocket. It was given to him by An Zhiwei after the second round. It was a work by the dream prophet Oramski.
Unfolding the drawing paper, one sees a crude six-pointed star and four fallen stick figures. Jiang Lin initially thought the drawing corresponded to the exorcism circle in the Cooper House attic and the Cooper family of four.
In retrospect, even Oramkis, the dream prophet, never imagined that he was depicting the scene before his death.
Judging from the bloodstains on the ground, the bodies of the five psychics had been dragged. Emilia's body was placed in the very center of the six-pointed star circle by the murderer, while the other four were neatly arranged at the four corners of the six-pointed star circle.
Two bodies are still missing at the corners of 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock.
"What's going on?" Liu Yangyang looked warily at the group of people who had arrived at the villa earlier.
Lu Fei shook his head, his expression also very serious: "It was like this when I arrived!"
Down the mountain, the host, Kane, clearly stated that the five psychics would arrive at the mountaintop villa first. Upon arriving and finding no one there, Lu Fei decided to avenge Yao Jun and deal with Ming Lailai first. Ming Lailai discovered Lu Fei's intentions and fled to the second floor, where the two then discovered the body.
Wang Baitao's face was grim: "All five psychics are dead. Who is the champion of the 'Psychic Battle'? How are we supposed to beat it?"
"Tap, tap, tap." The sound of leather shoes clicking echoed, and everyone turned to look at the third-floor staircase from which the sound came.
Host Kane reappeared.
"Welcome to the hilltop villa, eight observers!" Kane clapped as he walked down the stairs.
"Did you do this?" Lu Fei's expression changed, and he took several steps back, distancing himself from Kane. The other players did the same, all staring warily at Kane.
"Allow me to reintroduce myself!" Kane opened his arms and smiled at the crowd: "I am Joseph Jack Kane, the investor of this tournament, 'The War of Spirits'!"
Welcome to my humble island!
