I played the devil's game with Yang Shou, and I got into the soul with one shot!

"It's midnight..."

That unreal voice swam around everyone's ears like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, as if it came from the depths of the underworld, bringing with it a bone-chilling chill.

The air suddenly became thick.

The creaking sound of the wooden figure turning became more and more rapid, as if old gears were struggling to engage in flesh and blood.

Black liquid oozed from its empty eye sockets, dripping down its cheeks like tears of blood, and winding on the ground to form strange talisman patterns.

Zhou Qizheng's face was as pale as paper. He forced himself to raise the peach wood sword. The runes on the sword flickered faintly, but his voice remained steady.

"Everyone, don't panic... I'm afraid I can't escape tonight, but you... can survive..."

Huang Jing's hand holding the talisman paper trembled slightly, "Brother!"

Her voice was tearful, but she forced herself to swallow her worry after seeing Zhou Qizhen's determined eyes.

at this time,

Su Yi also suddenly saw a new prompt.

[When the hunter's ability is activated, he can transform himself into a shadow for 1 minute at midnight, instantly move behind any target within meters, and launch a fatal attack. After the target dies, the soul fragments will automatically merge into the hunter's body. (Once every night at midnight, after confirming the target, you cannot select a new target.)]

Is this the ability of a hunter?

Midnight... that is, from 11pm to 1am every night, during these two hours, you can activate this skill, but according to the game prompts at the beginning,

During this time period, I can only kill one person per night...

And if you kill someone at other times, you will be directly judged as the loser.

and also,

Isn’t ten meters a bit too close?

The ten-meter distance limit greatly increases the difficulty of action.

In other words, you have to get close to them before you can hunt them.

Su Yi's gaze gently drifted towards Zhou Qizhen, and after his hunting skills appeared, there was no difference between him and the others.

Then it seems that the target of my hunting is not determined.

So should I hunt down the person identified by the faceless statue as the song says, or should I just do it casually?

This is another question.

With this in mind,

Su Yi's pupils shrank slightly, and a strange power surged in his body. His body became light and ethereal, as if he could merge with the darkness at any time.

But he suppressed the throbbing in his heart, maintained a frightened expression on his face, and glanced around vigilantly.

now,

Playing the role of an innocent person and a member of the good camp is the key to saving his life in front of everyone.

But after Su Yi gained the ability, the wooden sculpture suddenly stopped moving.

The twisted limbs fell for a moment, seemingly losing their "life" again.

Silence is like an invisible net,

It instantly enveloped the entire mansion.

Du Wei frowned and cursed, "What the hell is this? Is it meant to scare people?"

Zhou Qizhen's peach wood sword fell to the ground with a clang, and he staggered and held on to the pillar.

"It seems to be a reminder to us that it's time to hunt the monsters..."

"The yin energy is at its heaviest during the midnight hour... the danger has just begun."

Su Yi lowered his eyes slightly and glanced at the positions of the people.

Jiang Mingyan was squatting in the corner, using a magnifying glass to observe some broken talismans stuck on the wall. The cold light reflected by the lens made his eyebrows and eyes look even sharper.

Huang Jing put his brother's peach wood sword back into his hands.

Du Wei paced back and forth with a gun in hand, the muzzle of the gun unconsciously sliding across everyone's eyebrows.

Yang Biao covered his chest and pulled Shen Meihua back, far away from the strange wooden sculpture.

"Look for it quickly...don't just stand there!"

Zhou Qi was trying hard to gather his strength, as if he had thought of something: "The layout of this house corresponds to the body of the Big Dipper, the Tianshu. If this house is transformed into the Big Dipper again, the Tianshu should be in the west wing."

"Then what are we waiting for!" Yang Biao's face lit up and he walked towards the west wing.

"Be careful." Zhou Qi was signaling his junior sister to support him and walked forward, and reminded her.

Yang Biao nodded seriously, but his pace unconsciously slowed down.

Jiang Mingyan didn't say much. Instead, he held a gun and stood beside Yang Biao, taking the lead.

Everyone left the main hall and slowly approached the west wing. Su Yi deliberately lagged behind by a few steps.

He knew very well that now seemed to be the critical moment.

If I let them find the talisman, it will be disadvantageous to me no matter what.

If they find the life-saving spell, they will not be able to successfully hunt tonight, and they will not only be at a disadvantage,

And the longer you stay in this dangerous place, the greater the possibility of being exposed.

The wooden door of the attic was half open, revealing a narrow gap.

A cold breath quietly seeped out from the crack in the door, like a thin layer of frost, filling the air.

This cold air was mixed with a hint of the smell of rotten meat, which made people want to vomit.

Jiang Mingyan stood in front of the door, his face solemn. He raised his hand to signal the people behind him to keep quiet.

Seeing this, everyone held their breath and dared not make a sound.

Jiang Mingyan took a deep breath, then carefully reached out and pushed open the wooden door.

The door hinge made a slight creaking sound, which was particularly harsh in this quiet environment.

Jiang Mingyan walked slowly into the room, followed closely by Yang Biao.

Yang Biao seemed to be a little afraid of the smell of rotten meat. He deliberately asked Shen Meihua to stay away from him and not get close to him for the time being to avoid unnecessary fright.

Zhou Qizhen and Huang Jing followed the two into the room without hesitation.

"Corpse!"

Huang Jing's exclamation rang out in the room.

At this time, Du Wei, Shen Meihua and Su Yi were still standing outside the door.

When they heard Huang Jing's exclamation, they couldn't help but feel moved.

The yard was filled with thick fog. Although candles were lit, visibility was extremely low. If you moved away by two meters, you could only see blurry figures.

Therefore, everyone walked very closely.

When Su Yi heard Huang Jing's voice, his heart moved.

This is your chance!

Next to Su Yi was the wooden pole that enclosed the trees, and he quickly placed the candle.

The body suddenly turned into shadow.

ten meters...

Zhou Qizhen must die!

Darkness flooded over my body like a tide,

Suddenly, Zhou Qi seemed to realize something, and the peach wood sword drew an arc of light.

But he turned into a shadow, without any substantial body. He instantly moved behind Zhou Qizhen, and black mist condensed from his fingertips and pierced his back.

"Senior Brother!" Huang Jing exclaimed again.

The hunt begins!

Stab it!

The moment Su Yi's skin was touched, the talisman turned into golden light and vanished his attack.

not good!

Fell into a trap!

Su Yi thought to himself,

Without any hesitation, he turned into a black shadow and returned to his original place in the blink of an eye.

His movements were done in one go, without any delay.

Once he reached the spot, he took up the candle on the table, the flame of the candle flickering slightly as he moved quickly.

Su Yi held a candle in his hand and walked steadily and quickly, taking three steps at a time to reach Shen Meihua's side.

Su Yi didn't say anything, he just held the candle higher so that the faint light could illuminate more areas.

He and Shen Meihua looked carefully into the room and asked in unison,

"what happened?"
