Invade the World

  Chapter 80 Awakening

   "I, do I have any crow's mouth?"

   Lin Xingjie was almost stunned.

   "...No, it has nothing to do with you."

  Xu Xiangyang shook his head.

   "He must have premeditated. Even Teacher Yang, who is possessed by the monster, is just a bait. His purpose...maybe it is the two of us."

  At present, the old man in the haunted house has the ability to manipulate monsters.

  At first glance, this monster looks like a long worm like a centipede, but in fact it is more like a combination of several kinds of insects, which is extremely hideous and ugly.

  In essence, they should be the same kind of existence as the old man in the haunted house and Xiao An. They are invisible to ordinary people, but they have the ability to interfere with reality; but in terms of intensity, they cannot be compared with the old man in the haunted house or Xiao An.

  But they also have a special way of survival: that is to penetrate into the human body and become one with the human body. This is the so-called "possession".

The physical quality of the possessed person will generally be strengthened as a result, almost like a superman; and when this condition becomes more serious, the musculoskeletal and even internal organs will be deformed, and the physiological structure will become different. Ordinary people are very different. They are not so much "humans" but closer to "monsters"-they are just monsters that have acquired flesh and blood.

  From the example of Teacher Yang, the possessed person may or may not know his abnormality.

  The kind that Shi Hui knows, perhaps because of his bad personality, he can become a qualified villain without guidance, which meets the expectations of the old man in the haunted house; or perhaps because the monsters in him are not that powerful.

  And Teacher Yang is a type that doesn’t know. From the results obtained by the psychic, after he is possessed and turned into a weird person, his body will be manipulated by the monsters lurking in his body, and the consciousness that truly belongs to him will be dragged into the spiritual world somewhere...

  "Ka...Ticket."

  When the old man in the haunted house appeared in the alley, the weird man who had been lying motionless on the ground suddenly began to twitch slightly again.

  Xu Xiangyang stared at him warily.

  The weirdo did not get up, but there was an unknown substance glowing with a dull luster, which was pulled out of Teacher Yang's body and flowed along the surface in the direction of the ghost.

After a few breaths, the distortion around the old man in the haunted house seems to have become more serious. Within tens of meters around it, even the sun shining on everything seems to disappear, walls, roads, windows...all become Like that haunted house, it was full of cold, decayed and dim atmosphere.

  Xu Xiangyang suddenly felt a kind of stunned.

  No wonder people suddenly stopped being afraid of the light. It turned out that the power of the old man in the haunted house hiding in his body helped him!

   Lin Xingjie pulled his sleeve, speaking in a small and rapid voice.

   "Look over there!"

  Xu Xiangyang quickly noticed that after the dim light was taken away, the twitching of Teacher Yang's body had not stopped, and the shaking had become more and more intense.

  The tied limbs spread out and fell softly. The pale skin all over his body dissipated like an animal molting. It looked like Teacher Yang had gradually recovered from a monster to a normal person.

  After the bulging of the eyeballs was restored, the eyelids drooped down, and only his mouth was still open.

  —A long and thin body sticks out of his mouth.

  The monster lurking in Teacher Yang's body is slowly "climbing" out.

  Just like the scene where Xu Xiangyang once saw the long worm possessing body, the scene of the monster leaving is also very disgusting—or, the nausea is even higher.

  The structure of the elongated limbs still looks a bit similar to human beings; but when the monster crawls out of Teacher Yang’s body, there is no human appearance at all:

The blue-black zombie-like elongated limbs support the ground; the abdomen is extremely large and hangs down heavily, which makes it look more like a spider magnified dozens of times with only four legs; and it resembles Where the head is, there is a distorted and howling human face.

  ...Sure enough, it is different from the monster possessing Shi Hui, Xu Xiangyang thought.

  After the huge human-faced spider broke away from Teacher Yang, it left an unidentified body in place, stepped open its limbs, and hurried across the open space, and jumped straight onto the nearby residential building.

   "Uh, it seems to be running away..."

  Lin Xingjie’s words did not finish, and the old man in the haunted house, who had been standing still in the alley, finally approached them.

   Along with the flickering of an old-fashioned camera, looking at the approaching ghost, the sweat on their foreheads was cold, knowing that it was not the time to think about other things.

  If it were ten minutes ago, they shouldn’t have been so panicked. Because Lin Xingjie had had a frontal conflict with the opponent long ago, Xiao An did not kill or eat the ghost, but successfully dispelled the opponent.

  The old man in the haunted house chose to give in in front of Lin Xingjie, which shows that it is also afraid of Xiaoan, or at least in fear.

  But now—

   "...Xingjie?"

   "I...I'm trying..."

   Lin Xingjie lowered her head, clenching her teeth. Support the ground with hands apart. Long dark hair fell down, those slender eyebrows were tightly furrowed, his expression was a bit painful, and blue veins appeared on his delicate face.

  ... She has been summoned once, and now is the weakest time.

  Xu Xiangyang sighed lightly, pressed his knees, stood up staggeringly, and stood in front of her.

   "You, what do you want to... do?"

  The girl's panicked voice came from behind.

  "You continue to try yours, I also have something I want to try."

  Xu Xiangyang replied. He tried to keep his voice from trembling.

  *

  Zhu Qingyue supported the wall stack beside her, her spirit was a little trance, but she finally came back to her senses.

  She took a breath of cold and fresh air to calm herself down; afterwards, she touched her forehead, feeling a little hot, as if she had a fever.

  The girl shook her groggy head vigorously, trying to remember what happened just now.

  ... By the way, at this place, I was about to go back, but I met a strange old man.

  The old man has no eyes, and the atmosphere radiating from her body is very strange. The moment she witnessed the other party, she could not even move.

  The only certainty is that it is by no means human.

  The old man is probably what Xu Xiangyang told him before, the root cause of haunting the haunted house; a demon who wanders around the world and refuses to leave after death.

  And when the ghost approached her, she felt her head hurt as if it was about to split, and the scenery in front of her turned into a twisted vortex.

  This situation is obviously very abnormal, and she even fainted directly.

  Since then, how long has the time passed...?

  Zhu Qingyue raised her hand and glanced at her watch.

  About three or four minutes.

  The girl breathed a sigh of relief.

  Fortunately, it’s not like being in a coma all day and night here. Passers-by who did not pass by around noticed the abnormality here.

  So, what was going on just now?

  Zhu Qingyue patted the dust on her body, and stood up from the same place by supporting the wall.

  She vaguely remembered that before she fell into a coma, it was like being held in her arms by someone.

  The girl couldn’t remember the other person’s face, and she didn’t hear someone talking, she just thought it should be a woman...

  But in fact, no one has approached her at all.

  Should I ask Student Xu that they are better? Maybe I hit a ghost once, just like the two of them, after awakening, what incredible ability...

  Zhu Qingyue made her own joke in her heart, but when she raised her head, she was suddenly taken aback.

  —I don’t know when, there are countless threads of silk that fell from the sky, entwining the sky and the earth, as if covering the entire city.

Zhu Qingyue blinked.

   Countless silk threads are constructed into a torrential rain like a waterfall, which is clearly extinct, appearing from time to time, and then disappearing from her field of vision.

When the girl subconsciously ran out of the alley and ran to a more empty street, trying to stand on tiptoes and look upwards, wanting to see the silver threads more clearly, bright and dazzling sunlight soon came into view. Engulf all abnormalities cleanly.

  ...Is it my illusion?

  Zhu Qingyue was quite confused, and walked back to where she was.

  If it were some kind of supernatural phenomenon, the scale would be too big—it could be described as “overwhelming”, which was completely beyond her scope of understanding.

   "click."

  While she was thinking, a flower pot on the wall was knocked down, the soil inside was spilled, and the petals fell.

  Zhu Qingyue looked in that direction.

  She thought she would see a wild cat, but as a result...

  —Which, what is this guy?

  The girl was dumbfounded, looking at a spider-like monster that was so huge that it was so huge that it had only four legs. It was rustling over the top of the wall, looking like she was fleeing.

  "..."

  Zhu Qingyue covered her mouth, but her breathing still inevitably became rapid.

  The huge spider keenly heard the human voice from behind, and twisted the head in front of the body.

  —Zhu Qingyue can see clearly, there is clearly a vivid human face wriggling. The mouth of the face was opened to an exaggerated extent, and it made a crying expression, as if there was endless pain and resentment that he wanted to confide in.

  If ordinary people see this human-sized human-faced spider, they will be scared to **** off; but it may be because they have just met the ghost head-on, Zhu Qingyue is not too shocked or scared.

  And the strangest thing is that even though she has never seen this monster before, she instinctively feels a sense of familiarity from the way it acts...

correct! It was the weird guy who invaded the school that night, they crawled in exactly the same way!

   Could it be said that this monster is the "body" of the weirdo...?

  Although it is just a guess, Zhu Qingyue's brain runs at a high speed. Starting from this guess, there is more than one possibility for thinking. Some were rejected by her, and some were affirmed, and continued to make new inferences in this direction, which allowed her to approach the truth in a short period of time.

  Student Xu has discovered the secret before. It turns out that Teacher Yang is the weird person who attacked them; and if the spider monster in front of him is the "body" of the weird person... In other words, this spider monster was probably in Teacher Yang's body at that time!

  This is not incredible, because Xu Xiangyang once told her about the example of Shi Hui.

  It now appears that the weirdos no longer exist, and Teacher Yang is not here. This shows that the spider monsters are likely to be driven out of the human body, which is of course a good thing.

   But, why does it still appear?

What about Xu Xiangyang and Lin Xingjie? They didn't have the ability to kill it and let it escape? Or say... something else happened?

  At that moment, she thought of the situation when she met the old man in the haunted house, and quickly came to a conclusion:

  —The reason why the ghost let go of itself may be because it has other goals!

   Thinking of this, the cloth on Zhu Qingyue’s back was already soaked in cold sweat.

  No, it won’t work like this! The two of them may be in danger!

  But, what can she do—

  Human Face Spider turned his head and just glanced at Zhu Qingyue, and then left again.

  Wait...wait a minute!

  The moment this thought came to the girl's mind, Zhu Qingyue moved her finger unconsciously.

  Other than that, she didn't make any sound, let alone make any obstructive actions; theoretically, she didn't have the ability to stop it.

  But the human face spider really stopped.

  Is the monster heard her inner thoughts and stopped showing compassion?

  ...No, this kind of thing is of course impossible.

  Zhu Qingyue seemed to be stunned.

  She waited for a while, then slowly raised her palm.

  She quietly stared at her fingers, and the depths of the clear pupils were shining with a ray of transparent luster.

  —A "line" that only Zhu Qingyue can see, links her and the monster together.

   "...turn around."

  The girl whispered.

  In the next second, the human-faced spider was like a puppet in her hand, obediently turning around in a circle.
