196: Chapter 196 I took a nap, and this is what I woke up to.

Unable to move, and unable to make a sound!

The worst part was that the surroundings were endless darkness!

Being trapped in a place like this was truly terrifying and unbearable!

As the captain, Feng Rui was incredibly frustrated; to be honest, she hadn't taken this unfinished residential complex seriously.

But she never expected that just after leading her team into the basement, they would encounter such a bizarre attack!

She didn't know if the other team members were in the same situation as her!

If everyone was trapped, that would be terrible!

She thought that with a gun in hand, she would have nothing to fear!

Who would have thought that this unfinished residential complex would be so eerie!

However, Feng Rui didn't panic; after all, she needed to report to headquarters at regular intervals.

When headquarters didn't receive her report for a long time, they would surely know something had happened and send someone to rescue them!

Compared to the skeptical Feng Rui, Luo Li had come prepared.

She had hidden things like peace talismans and crosses inside her uniform.

She thought that by relying on those things, she could dispel some indescribable, eerie entities!

Who would have thought those safety charms would be completely useless!

She couldn't move now, and she was nearly scared to death!

Xia Ningxue was also trapped.

But she was relatively calm!

Her mind was racing, thinking of a way to break the deadlock!

For some reason, there wasn't a trace of fear in her heart; she felt that she would definitely be safe and sound!

She had no idea that at this very moment, Luo Wei had appeared by her side.

Just now, after the swarm of bats swept past.

Luo Wei saw the swarm of bats flying toward Xia Ningxue's group!

His heart skipped a beat, knowing that something was bound to happen!

Sure enough, when he rushed over.

He saw Xia Ningxue's group all standing quietly at the entrance of the basement.

They hadn't lost consciousness, but everyone stood there with numb expressions.

He looked at them using the Intelligence Eye.

'These people are poisoned and have fallen into hallucinations.'

As expected, that swarm of bats just now carried some kind of pathogen!

Hundreds of bats crashed into the team members, releasing pathogenic toxins onto them!

Even though they were all wearing helmets, the helmets were not isolated from the outside world!

They had clearly inhaled toxic gas!

Thus, they were poisoned and fell into hallucinations!

Luo Wei stepped forward and removed Xia Ningxue's helmet.

He originally wanted to feed Xia Ningxue some spirit liquid to detoxify her.

But at that moment, the information provided by the Intelligence Eye changed.

'Xia Ningxue is mildly poisoned and will heal on her own in a few minutes.'

The same was true for the others.

It seemed that the bat attack just now was a warning!

If Xia Ningxue's group continued deeper into the basement, they would surely suffer an even more terrifying attack!

However, Xia Ningxue's group had come specifically to solve the problems of this unfinished residential complex!

They would never stop; they would definitely continue deeper!

Therefore, to prevent Xia Ningxue from encountering danger.

Luo Wei had to deal with the ghostly thing in the unfinished building!

He put the helmet back on Xia Ningxue.

Luo Wei returned to the depths of the basement!

He waded through the water, looking around.

Just now, he had caught a glimpse of a spot of light out of the corner of his eye.

Now, he wanted to find that spot of light!

Just then.

Luo Wei felt a moment of daze!

He felt the dark basement before him extend infinitely, becoming incredibly vast!

He looked around and couldn't find where he had come from at all!

Every pillar and every passage in the basement looked familiar.

If he wasn't mistaken, a normal person in this situation would inevitably circle around the basement, unable to leave!

But Luo Wei directly used the Eye of Thoroughness, instantly seeing through the surrounding structures and easily breaking this 'ghost wall' attack!

The fact that the ghostly thing didn't appear gave Luo Wei a bit of a headache.

He had thought about using words to provoke the other party.

But after some thought, he decided to use another method.

He took out a mineral water bottle containing spirit liquid, unscrewed the cap, and took a small sip.

The rich fragrance of the spirit liquid quickly spread in all directions!

Faced with the temptation of the spirit liquid, that thing appeared!

A spot of light appeared behind Luo Wei.

It tried to bore into Luo Wei's body at extreme speed!

Luo Wei's perception was incredibly sharp; he had noticed it long ago!

Just as the spot of light was about to enter his body, he suddenly turned around and slapped the bad luck talisman in his hand toward it!

The bad luck talisman made contact with the spot of light and instantly bored into it!

The attacked spot of light fled at high speed!

But soon, the spot of light returned.

The spot of light rapidly expanded, turning into a human shape.

It was a person who seemed to be made of mist.

She wore flowing Hanfu, and her entire body emitted a faint glow.

Now, she clenched her fists and glared at Luo Wei angrily, "What did you do to me? Take that talisman off me right now!"

Even though Luo Wei had obtained a magical system and possessed strange items like the Eye of Thoroughness and the book of transactions.

He was still stunned to see a legendary ghost with his own eyes!

That thing floating in the air, with a body made of mist, must be a ghost!

The Intelligence Eye provided information about the thing at this time.

'This is a spirit body.'

"Hey, I'm talking to you!" The Spirit Body Maiden waved at Luo Wei angrily.

"I've manifested, you should be able to see me, right?"

"Hey—"

The Spirit Body Maiden floated directly in front of Luo Wei's eyes.

Luo Wei suddenly reached out, trying to grab her.

But his hand passed right through the Spirit Body Maiden's body!

The Spirit Body Maiden's body dispersed just like mist.

A second later, the mist regrouped, re-forming the Spirit Body Maiden.

The already angry girl became even more furious!

"You really can see me!"

"What are you doing? Are you here to kill me?"

"As I thought, you're just a robber! Not only did you barge into my home, but you actually want to kill me!"

The Spirit Body Maiden was very angry but didn't attack Luo Wei; after all, the bad luck talisman had entered her body.

"Is this your home?" Luo Wei asked, rather amused.

"How is this not my home?" the Spirit Body Maiden shot back angrily!

"Initially, this was the middle of nowhere, and my family buried me here."

"I don't know how long it's been, but someone leveled my grave and built houses right on top of it!"

"Ask yourself, do you think this behavior is right? Someone comes and occupies your home, builds houses on your property—would you be happy about it?"

Indeed, from the Spirit Body Maiden's perspective, that was exactly the case.

However, Luo Wei didn't care about such things.

He was more curious about something else.

"By the way, how did you become a spirit body?"

"You're asking me? How should I know?" The Spirit Body Maiden crossed her arms, still looking puffed up with anger!

"I feel like I just took a nap, and when I woke up, I was like this!" The Spirit Body Maiden was very angry.

But Luo Wei could see and feel that the girl actually had a strong desire to communicate.

Although she was complaining, she kept talking non-stop.

He wondered how long it had been since she last spoke...
