Eighth Crown

It was a creature that was already out of the category of humans just from the appearance.

Although he has the same limbs, torso and head, and the clothes on his body are also the clothes of the people, the facial features on his face are abnormally discordant and ferocious. There are no white eyes. The red eyes almost stick out from the sockets, and the mouth is full of fangs. , and even the disgusting saliva overflowed from the mouth and dripped onto the ground.

He looks like he is in his thirties, his height is no different from ordinary people, and the muscles on his body are not that strong, but the pale nails above his ten fingers like animal claws glow with a cold light in the moonlight.

Ugly, hideous.

But not as powerful.

This was the first impression this ghost gave Liu Xia when he appeared in front of him.

If you don't look at his hideous appearance, he is no different from ordinary people, and the sense of threat to Liu Xia is far less than that of the magician named 'Araiya Zonglian' who stared at him but was killed twice by him.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!”

However, he didn't change his face even though he couldn't breathe, but my wife Shanyi beside him seemed to see a ghost, as if he was about to die soon, and suddenly let out an extremely shrill scream.

Liu Xia was not frightened by the evil ghost, but was a little frightened by the sudden scream of my wife Shanyi. The shrill scream that sounded in his ear made his eardrums vibrate, and he felt a little tinnitus.

And after making such a scream, my wife Shanyi hid behind Liu Xia with lightning speed, curled up on the ground, shivering, refusing to face reality.

"…"

Seeing the reaction of my wife Zenitsu, Liu Xia fell silent.

Weird had to think about coming to participate in the final selection. With this courage, if he survives, there will be ghosts... No, it is because of ghosts that he can't survive.

"Hey hey hey hey!"

The middle-aged evil ghost like a common man let out a low and hoarse laugh, then kicked the ground with both feet, and slammed towards Liu Xia in the direction of a wild beast attacking its prey.

too slow.

While facing the attack of the evil ghost, Liu Xia even had the mind to evaluate the opponent's strength.

Power aside, but the speed is only slightly stronger than ordinary people at most, and it is not even as good as Bai Chun Lio who was once killed by Liu Xia.

Liu Xia's current state, under normal conditions, the strength is 3 times that of ordinary people, and the speed is increased to 5 times because of [Agility] to E. In the case of using [Magic Reinforcement], the strength can reach 5 times that of ordinary people, and the speed can reach 5 times. 6 times.

Because [Agility] improves flexibility and reaction ability, his ability to dodge and maneuver in a small area, as well as his neural reaction speed, are also 10 times that of ordinary people.

Not to mention that the speed of this ghost is not even twice that of an ordinary person. Even if it reaches, or even exceeds, more than double that of an ordinary person, reaching the level of 10 times that of an ordinary person, Liu Xia's neural reaction speed will never fail to respond.

In the face of this evil ghost's attack, Liu Xia didn't even need to dodge. At the moment when the opponent's empty door opened, he directly raised his leg and kicked him in the abdomen with a quick kick.

"Ugh!"

The powerful force even kicked him out, causing him to snort and slam into the door wall of the ancient temple, making a "bump" sound.

too weak.

It should be only the lowest group among the evil spirits.

Judging by the common sense given by the [Anonymous Lingji], generally speaking, the power of a ghost is measured by the number of people who eat it. The more people who eat it, the stronger the power.

When there are enough people to eat, they will lose their human form and become 'alien ghosts', and their physical abilities will greatly increase. Alien ghosts have far exceeded the range that ordinary people can deal with.

And a small number of gifted ghosts may even awaken [Blood Ghost Art] with various magical effects.

Among all the above-mentioned ordinary ghosts, alien ghosts, and ghosts capable of blood ghost art, there are also the twelve strongest ghosts called "Twelve Ghost Moons", which are above all evil ghosts. Their strength will only get stronger.

Liu Xia thought to himself, with his current strength, he has no problem dealing with ordinary alien ghosts, and ghosts with blood ghost techniques can also deal with it. If it is 'Twelve Ghost Moon', it will be troublesome, most of which are not opponents, must use let The modern weapons prepared by the Liangyi family will do.

Therefore, he must learn the technology unique to this world as soon as possible - [breathing method].

As long as he can learn the breathing technique, then his strength will probably be greatly increased, and it is estimated that there should be no problem in dealing with the weaker ones in the twelve ghost months.

and-

Lucia's gaze shifted to the lower right of her own perspective.

[Ascension Quest I - Basic Ability Value Enhancement Limited]: Kill 10 cannibals in total (0/10).

As long as he can complete this task, his strength can be improved again.

"My wife Shanyi, lend me your knife."

Liu Xia turned around and pulled out the long sword that my wife Shanyi was hanging from her waist.

This is a knife with a yellow handle, a white face, and a golden-yellow lightning pattern on the blade. Just at first glance, you can feel its extraordinary.

"The sun blade, specially forged for killing ghosts, is the exclusive sword for the swordsmen of the ghost killing team."

Lucia knew this well.

Generally speaking, ghosts are immortal.

The ghost's body has an extremely powerful self-healing ability. Whether it is cutting the throat, stabbing the heart with a knife, or even cutting off the limbs and head, they cannot kill the ghost. Even if their bodies are all crushed into mud, they can still recover.

This is where ghosts are the most terrifying creatures.

They will not die, which means that they will become stronger with constant cannibalism. If there is no way to curb them, sooner or later, ghosts will replace humans and become the masters of the earth.

Fortunately, ghosts are not without weaknesses.

In the endless [different world], there may indeed be perfect creatures without any weaknesses, but at least the man-eating demons in this world, code-named [Demon Slayer], are not.

For all ghosts, they must be extremely afraid of the sun.

This is their natural and greatest weakness.

Any ghost, once exposed to the sun and directly irradiated by the sun, will immediately be wiped out, and there is no possibility of resistance. , there is no possibility of surviving under the sun.

Therefore, the first and preferred method of killing ghosts is to expose them to sunlight.

In the case that the ghost cannot be exposed to the sun, there is another way to kill the evil ghost.

That is to use the special product of the Ghost Killing Team, the [Sun Wheel Sword]. It is said that this sword contains the power of sunlight. As long as the [Sun Wheel Sword] is used to cut off the neck of the evil ghost, it can also kill the ghost. Sunlight generally has the same effect.

Therefore, if Liu Xia wanted to kill this ghost, he had to either tie him up and let him shine in the sunlight of tomorrow morning, or he had to use my wife Zenitsu's [Sun Wheel Sword].
