Director Fiona simply couldn’t believe that these ghosts were so close to this human being. No, was this person really still a human?
Even Director Fiona began to fear Gu Wuji.
But Falcon was different. When he saw this scene, he immediately wondered whether these ghosts would not harm humans. If Gu Wuji really had something that could prevent ghosts from harming him and was such a bug-level person, how could it be possible that no news of him had come out?
Falcon observed carefully and determined that they did not pose a threat to Gu Wuji and that they looked very gentle, just like the harmless ghosts that he had seen in other copies and had no resentment. He immediately made up his mind to jump directly and move into the water ahead.
No matter what, he couldn’t give up this opportunity to Sun Shi, who was like a passerby!
The ghosts were already approaching, but Falcon was indifferent. He was so calm even without any plans. How could he be so timid in front of these players?
The players watching nearby took a breath and looked at the scene in front of them in amazement.
“Could it be that Falcon also has a way to avoid being haunted by ghosts…”
“Should I say he is worthy of being a boss?”
Only Lu Yuanzhou and Falcon’s younger brother felt something subtle in their hearts. They had never heard of this before. Seriously, was this some way Falcon got it in this copy?
“Wait, be careful.” Gu Wuji saw Falcon’s movements and said immediately, “These ghosts are not easy to deal with.”
“Ha.” Falcon sneered, feeling that Gu Wuji was basically lying to him. “You mean, these ghosts won’t attack you, but they will attack me? Who do you think you are, and why do these ghosts treat you so favorably…”
The next moment, his expression suddenly changed. After he entered the surroundings, several ghosts in close proximity suddenly changed from their previous gentleness to ferocious looks, and without even a moment’s hesitation, they pounced on him and started biting him.
The frightened Falcon quickly used a defensive item and was able to escape from the siege of ghosts, otherwise he would have turned into a corpse by now.
Everyone else was silent for a while after seeing this scene, and Falcon’s younger brother pretended that he didn’t see his boss being embarrassed at all.
“You guy!” Falcon lost face in front of everyone and was simply furious, thus looking at Gu Wuji with eyes full of evil.
Gu Wuji could only shake his head, feeling that he was very innocent, “I have reminded you…”
Falcon was extremely angry. People like him never thought about their own problems, so he only thought that it was Gu Wuji’s fault. He was the one who deliberately provoked him to go over. But now there was really no way for him to get through the barrier of ghosts and get to the water tank.
At this time, Gu Wuji turned around and looked at the mermaid in front of him. He still didn’t know how to do it, so he tried to reach out and touch the water tank in front of him.
“We can’t let him succeed… You have to remember clearly who is the one who can control you.” Director Fiona muttered to himself as he looked at the ghosts in the water. Then his face turned pale and his body seemed to be unable to bear it. Blood then overflowed from the mouth.
Everyone could clearly see that his body instantly became somewhat transparent. At the same time, each of the ghosts in the water seemed to be driven, with struggling and painful expressions on their faces, as they rushed towards Gu Wuji’s position.
“Sure enough, Director Fiona still has some control over this dream.”
Gu Wuji thought thoughtfully. He immediately controlled the ghosts in front of him, but there was a steady stream of ghosts behind him, making it difficult for him to resist. He could only use the ghost control technique at this time to control the ghosts in front of him.
Then everyone saw in shock as the ghosts actually started killing each other. If what happened before could be said to be a coincidence, now that something like this happened again now, it had proven that this was Gu Wuji’s strength!
“What on earth is going on? Is this Sun Shi’s ability?”
“He can actually affect these ghosts. This ability is too strong. It’s just like the bosses of high-level dungeons I’ve heard about… “
“No wonder the ghosts who even Falcon can’t fight are so obedient in front of him. This is the difference in strength between the two!”
Of course, Gu Wuji’s strength were not really as strong as that of a high-level dungeon boss, but he was surely the best among this group of people.
When everyone remembered that they had actually discriminated against Gu Wuji before and felt that he was just relying on his face to gain the mountain god’s favor by accident, they felt frightened in their hearts. Fortunately, none of them showed it, otherwise how would they survive after offending such a big boss.
“Isn’t it just a relatively rare power?” Falcon was very dissatisfied, “It’s just good luck. If I had such an ability, I would definitely be able to perform better than this guy…”
Gu Wuji was actually not as good or having it as easy as others thought. After all, these ghosts were actually bound to this dream. They were thus much more difficult to control than ordinary ghosts. What’s more, there were too many ghosts around, so it was good to be able to resist without having to rush. Don’t mention taking time to do anything else.
But Fiona’s side went very smoothly. He walked in the water as if he were walking on flat ground. You must know that the water in this space had risen to the waist of the two of them, and it was also accompanied by the impact of big waves from time to time. Most people would feel nice if they could just stay stable in it.
Even before touching him, all the ghosts dispersed, as if they were very afraid of him. This scene that looked like the Chosen Son made everyone look at it in a daze, suspecting that they came to this dungeon just to be cannon fodder.
Just like that, Fiona reached the other side of the water tank without encountering any obstacles, which made people anxious.
“You are still too young. It depends on you. I’m afraid you don’t even have the mental strength to meet the conditions for communication with the mermaid.” Fiona also glanced at Gu Wuji coldly, with a hint of ridicule in his words.
His goal was not accomplished in this dream, and he almost overturned. But it didn’t matter, everything could happen again, as long as this dream was within his control, sooner or later one day…
Director Fiona looked at the tank with his fanatical eyes, pinched the neck of the player he had captured before, used his other hand to take out a sharp dagger and actually wanted to kill the player in front of everyone.
Just as he was about to take action, Gu Wuji couldn’t stand it any longer and suddenly said, “Master Fiona, is your fiancée really willing to see you do such a thing?”
“What did you say?” Director Fiona glanced over with a cold look in her eyes. Originally, he didn’t bother to talk to Gu Wuji, but the topic Gu Wuji brought up was something he couldn’t ignore.
Just when Director Fiona was slightly distracted by Wuji’s words, a ghost behind him changed his expression and rushed towards Director Fiona’s position.
Director Fiona’s expression changed. He had no choice but to let go of his hand to resist the ghost’s attack. The player who was strangled by the neck thus fell into the water. But because his body had not yet regained control, he could only continue to struggle in the water, and he was about to drown.
“I didn’t expect…” Director Fiona sneered and looked in the direction of Gu Wuji, “You actually had a chance. But just to save a comrade who was doomed to die, you used up this opportunity. You are really too naive. If I were you, I wouldn’t care about the lives of these people.”
“Then have you ever thought about why you didn’t see the ghost of the person you wanted to see?” Gu Wuji said, “Obviously all the people in the institute have been reproduced, but she is the only one you can’t find.”
“What did you say?” Director Fiona’s expression changed. “Where is she?”
“She has always been here.”
After Gu Wuji said this, he didn’t care about Director Fiona’s reaction afterwards. Anyway, for him, how could he not save someone who could be saved?
He took a deep breath, let the ghost controlled by him grab the player, and swim towards a safe place. However on his side, he seemed to have been drained of strength because of controlling too many powerful ghosts. The ghosts behind him also showed a faint tendency to escape his control.
The players over there were all stunned. They didn’t expect that in such a dangerous situation, Gu Wuji would choose to save others regardless of his own life. If it were them, they definitely wouldn’t be able to do such a thing.
If they had heard about this kind of thing, they would want to laugh at the naivete of the person involved and call him the Holy Father. When had it happened? Was anything more important than their own lives? But when they saw this thrilling scene with their own eyes, they only felt admiration in their hearts.
Lu Yuanzhou sighed. He had already known that Gu Wuji was this kind of person, but even so, he hoped that Gu Wuji could survive more than the stranger…
He turned to look at Falcon, thinking this guy might still be mocking Gu Wuji at this time, but who knew, he saw a different emotion on his face.
“There are such good people in the world. If I had met such teammates in other dungeons, I probably wouldn’t have been wiped out…” Falcon was really shocked by Gu Wuji’s reckless behavior. Although he was very unwilling before, after looking at the situation in front of him, he felt that it was better to let Gu Wuji handle such a dangerous matter. This copy was really too troublesome.
Lu Yuanzhou: “…” Why does it always feel so ironic for such a person to say such things?
Director Fiona was stunned by Gu Wuji’s words, and then he finally came to his senses. Although the sacrifice he had prepared just ran away, his gaze only turned cold, “Although there is one missing sacrifice, but it’s not too different…the souls of the people who died before should be enough.”
As for Gu Wuji’s words, he wanted to ignore them, but they still stuck in his heart.
“Forget it, he must be just talking nonsense. When everything is successful, she will naturally appear in front of me…”
Director Fiona took a deep breath, put his hand on the glass of the tank, and looked into the tank, at the mermaid who had his eyes closed and tried to use his mental power to convey his meaning.
Then the mermaid opened his eyes slightly.
Director Fiona was ecstatic, almost thinking that everything would be successful in the next moment… However what he met was a pair of extremely cold eyes, as if looking at a corpse.
