Seeing that the other players had already begun to face the servants, the two sides were just about the same in number, and it seemed that their strength was not much different. Gu Wuji breathed a sigh of relief, which gave him more time to complete the magic circle.
What no one noticed was that Rong Qingman had quietly walked towards the gate while the others were in chaos.
He felt a pain on his fingertips, but Gu Wuji seemed to be unaware of it. Compared with being able to leave this place, this matter was nothing at all, and he also had the ability to heal, which could completely avoid excessive blood loss.
But drawing this magic circle was not as simple as imagined. Although Gu Wuji had completely memorized the complicated patterns, during the drawing process, the magic circle seemed to be constantly absorbing his vitality, making people pale in an instant, and cold sweat kept dripping from their foreheads.
If it weren’t for Gu Wuji’s healing ability, he suspected that he would faint on the spot. He suddenly began to feel that he had really gone too far in interrupting other people’s rituals before, which was simply a waste of other people’s labor!
And the strange thing was that there seemed to be a force driving him from behind. Even if Gu Wuji didn’t try hard to draw, his hands were moving faintly on the ground. He could feel the evil god’s strong urge to be summoned by him!
If it wasn’t him, how could this magic circle be made! Gu Wuji guessed that he might use the remaining traces of the magic circle of Felicia’s father as the prototype… But he could draw it himself anyway, so he didn’t look for that thing.
Felicia sighed softly, “If it’s just like this, it’s still too far away.” He took out a photo album from the cabinet beside him, which was the one Gu Wuji had seen on the first day.
But at this time, everyone could clearly feel the terrifying breath coming from this photo album. It was not an ordinary photo album at all, but a book that condensed countless resentments and hosted ghosts.
The moment Felicia opened it, ghosts whose bodies had turned gray and white emerged from it. They all looked hideous, but familiar traces could still be seen… These ghosts were the players who had disappeared before.
The other players were shocked when they saw this scene. They knew that their companions were probably dead, but they didn’t expect that these people would become ghosts and be used repeatedly!
“Go.” Felicia’s voice sounded lightly, “Stop him from finishing the magic circle. If you succeed, I will grant you freedom.”
After Felicia’s voice fell, the ghosts suddenly became excited, and flew towards Gu Wuji’s direction as if they didn’t care about their lives… Of course, they were already dead.
The other living players were shocked and felt that Gu Wuji was probably going to die this time. This was equivalent to all the other players dealing with him alone!
Gu Wuji was still calm and composed, as if he didn’t care about this at all. He was still concentrating on drawing the thing in his hands, and at the same time he said loudly, “It’s time!”
Rong Qingman, who had been hiding there for a while, did not open the door, but he found a way to open some gaps in the back on the door. If he didn’t have some tricks, he was afraid this task would not be so easy to complete.
The next moment, something happened that shocked everyone. Countless ghosts poured in from the outside world, and under the leadership of a ghost, they suddenly entered this space.
The leading ghost was the ghost that had been beside Gu Wuji before. After knowing the truth of the matter during the day, Gu Wuji asked him to find a way to communicate with these ghosts.
The other almost countless ghosts in this room were all people who died in this place. Some were people who already existed in this world, and some were players. In any case, they had been wandering in this place for too long, and almost lost their consciousness, becoming like lonely ghosts.
In the end, they finally reached an agreement. Of course, Gu Wuji swore that he absolutely did not coerce these ghosts, but just used some means to stimulate them and let them recall what had happened. In the end, he also promised that after everything was over, he would purify all these ghosts and let them be free.
Perhaps these ghosts realized that if they did not stop the ceremony, they would become the nourishment of Felicia’s power tonight, so of course they were unwilling to let it go.
The only problem was that Gu Wuji still couldn’t find out from these ghosts about the person who looked exactly like him. He only vaguely knew that the other party was a good person, which was no different from nonsense.
These ghosts that suddenly poured in from the outside world quickly confronted the ghosts released by Felicia. The dark mass made the entire space look like a group of demons dancing wildly. It had completely changed from the previous horror movie to the scene of some heavy-tasting battle movie.
The other players were so shocked that they almost forgot the action. They were almost beaten half to death by Felicia’s servants before they finally remembered. They were already extremely shocked. Where did Gu Wuji come from? Why could he control other ghosts??
Felicia seemed a little surprised at this scene and then looked at Gu Wuji and said softly: “It’s only you who can actually do this kind of thing. It really makes me feel excited again, and I want to get you even more…”
Gu Wuji completely ignored his gay speech and continued to focus on drawing the magic circle. He was only a few strokes away from completing it.
“But have you ever thought about this,” Felicia said as he slowly walked towards where Gu Wuji was, “You still lack something very important if you want to use the summoning circle.”
Gu Wuji’s movements paused slightly, and he was now only one step away from the last stroke.
“If you want to summon, you must have a sacrifice. But there is obviously no such thing here. If you force the summon, this magic circle will only absorb your soul.” Felicia sighed, “Do you really want that to happen? How about stopping now? I don’t want to see you die.”
Gu Wuji just shook his head slightly and said softly, “Of course you also know that the sacrifices are only for the gods to hear their voices… But what if the gods have been paying attention to someone all the time?”
Felicia’s face suddenly sank after realizing what Gu Wuji meant.
The next moment, Gu Wuji’s fingers gently slid across the ground, and the entire magic circle was completely complete, and suddenly a dazzling golden light burst out.
Under this golden light, the whole room turned as bright as day. Felicia’s body suddenly stiffened, and then, as if out of his control, he slowly walked towards the direction of the figurine.
Everyone else was stunned. It was not that they had never seen a summoning circle before, nor had they themselves tried to summon one, but without exception, they all failed. Felicia’s words about not having a sacrifice were only part of the reason. The more important thing was that in reality, the gods would only descend to those they were interested in.
But even so, it was not an easy thing to summon. But Gu Wuji, with such a simple magic circle, actually summoned the gods! And it was so fast!
All the ghosts around were terrified, and they all huddled aside. Even the ghosts of the players that Felicia released from the album were no exception. They all wanted to find a place to hide. But due to the limited space around them, they had nowhere to hide.
The servants also seemed to have lost control and stood still. The living players looked at the light with excitement, feeling that this was a great opportunity for them to gain power.
[Complete the main task: Successfully hold the ceremony.]
[Trigger a new main task: Leave the island.]
[You finally know the truth of everything, and at this time, escaping from this island that has been completely controlled by ghosts is your only way out.]
This voice rang in everyone’s ears.
And Gu Wuji also heard a separate reminder sound in his ear, [Complete the secret mission: the owner’s wish.]
[He has only one wish from beginning to end, that is to bring God to the world.]
[From now on, the player can stop maintaining the character settings required by this copy.]
Gu Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. He didn’t expect that he could successfully persist to this moment! But what he didn’t expect was that the owner of the house in this secret mission turned out to be Felicia’s father…
Of course, if it was Felicia’s wish, Gu Wuji felt that it would be impossible for him to complete it.
The system’s reminder sound suddenly woke up many people, but they still insisted on staying here. After all, who knew if the gods would have a good impression of them and give them some benefits. If it was just to pass the copy, why would they come here at such a high cost.
Gu Wuji stood up and wiped the sweat from his forehead. When he was about to run away, he saw Felicia looking at him deeply in the golden light.
Felicia’s face seemed to have changed slightly in the shadows. His amber eyes suddenly turned blood red. He showed Gu Wuji an expression that made people feel fear after seeing it, “Are you still going to leave?”
“Yes. Goodbye.” Gu Wuji was indifferent and said softly, “I’m sorry, you are actually a good person, but… you were born in the wrong place. If you were just an ordinary person, I would take you away, but now, I’m leaving.”
He turned around and hurried to the outside world. Gu Wuji didn’t intend to stay here and continue to communicate with the evil god. Rong Qingman also hurried to catch up.
Felicia looked at Gu Wuji in astonishment, and then smiled softly, “Is that so? That’s it. It doesn’t matter. If I die because of you in the end, I won’t have any complaints.”
“But can you really leave?”
Felicia’s voice was already blurred and then replaced by an even more creepy breath. The pressure instantly made all the players kneel on the ground, looking at the scene in front of them in shock, and fanaticism slowly appeared in their eyes.
If they had only stayed here reluctantly for the sake of power before, now, they had been conquered by the other party’s power and could not wait to become the other party’s fanatical believers.
Feeling that extremely familiar gaze, Gu Wuji did not dare to turn his head, and directly dived into the crowd… no, into the group of ghosts, and suddenly ran towards the outside world.
“I must leave!”
