"Hmm, that's right. The pressure on you isn't light now either." Gu Shanhai glanced at Great Heaven Position.
At the beginning, Great Heaven Position could still banter with him, but the frequency has dropped significantly now. This indicates that he can no longer maintain these pretenses and his true nature is beginning to surface.
Great Heaven Position isn't bothered by this either; he can distinguish between priorities and won't delay the mission process just to maintain his disguise at this ti.
At first glance, he seed to be stalling for ti with a battle royale strategy, but in fact, he also had the task of extracting information from this group of ghosts and monsters to obtain intelligence.
Whether the intelligence is useful or not is one thing, but having none is another. The more intelligence they can gather, the more they can learn about the All Ghosts Survival Platform.
Shura and Great Heaven Position had long regarded the All Ghosts Survival Platform as the final boss. They naturally wouldn't give up on gaining more understanding.
The information gap is a deadly issue that they must fill completely.
The two chatted intermittently, and soon it was midnight.
"I'll go test the waters first to see what the situation with this group of ghosts and ghouls is."
Great Heaven Position put on a linen shirt stained with Deceit Blood, donned a slightly damaged mask, and left with a large machete.
There were also so odd items he found in the village, special equipnt with additional attributes and effects that could significantly boost his suppressed strength.
"Once this outfit is on, it really feels a bit like a serial killer... um, in this world, it's probably a killing demon." Gu Shanhai thought, realizing the fugitives were monsters, not humans, so calling it a serial killer didn't fit. A killing demon fit the local style better.
"But with Great Heaven Position's plan this ti, he likely won't directly kill the deceitful ghosts. The greater likelihood is that he will slowly torture them for ten days and then kill them all on the last day."
...
"It's actually the Old Mountain Village, damn, how could luck be this bad." A White Bone Ghost was terrified upon reading the ten-day survival mission.
"It's no use saying anything now. We need to work together to survive this ti. Otherwise, if we get caught by the Killing Ghost Man, you all know what the outco would be." Next to it, the flas on an Evil Fire Ghost flickered, proving its restless heart.
There were ten ghost survivors this ti, all of them not insignificant, but when facing the battle royale-style survival at Old Mountain Village, none of them felt confident.
As for the difficulty, it naturally far surpasses Garden Apartnts and Affectionate Family.
The forr two had so protection, but in Old Mountain Village, not only is there no protection ti, but you can't survive by following the rules. As soon as a Killing Ghost Man appears, don't even think about resisting; run imdiately. Otherwise, getting hit once by the Killing Ghost Man won't kill you, but it will leave you severely injured.
At that point, the Killing Ghost Man remains unscathed, while you're grievously wounded, and the situation becos blatantly obvious.
Injuries inflicted by the Killing Ghost Man on the ghost survivors can only be healed once they return to the All Ghosts Survival Platform. Otherwise, as long as you're in Old Mountain Village, the injuries won't heal.
This is actually an advantage for ghost survivors, otherwise, in normal circumstances, when encountering humans, none would survive even three strikes; they'd be dead by the first blow.
Facing a Killing Ghost Man, the first blow causes only light injuries, the second severe injuries, and the third naturally results in instant death.
Lightly injured, there's still a chance to escape. Severely injured ans certain death, even if they can last ten days in that state. Injured as they are, how could they outrun the Killing Ghost Man?
"Working together? Heh, you all go ahead, I won't."
The Evil Fire Ghost had just finished speaking when a disdainful voice, from a Black Eagle Gu, a human-like owl, retorted.
After speaking, the Black Eagle Gu flapped its wings and flew away imdiately.
It's no fool; how could it not know Evil Fire Ghost's intentions?
In Old Mountain Village, one must guard against not only the Killing Ghost Man but also fellow ghost survivors. If a Killing Ghost Man shows up, you don't have to outrun the Killing Ghost Man, just outrun the other ghost.
Then stab the other ghost to delay them, letting yourself escape.
Thus, every additional ghost is akin to having another life.
The Black Eagle Gu didn't want to be backstabbed, so naturally, it chose to act alone.
The ghosts who have survived multiple trials are exceedingly cautious.
"Ignorant situation, humph, more deceit ans more strength, and it dares act alone." A Hanged Ghost criticized, implying it intended to ally with Evil Fire Ghost.
This wasn't because the Hanged Ghost was persuaded by Evil Fire Ghost, but it also wanted Evil Fire Ghost as a backup life, so it was feigning ignorance.
As for who uses whom as a substitute, it all depends on capability.
Seeing this, White Bone Ghost didn't say anything but left silently. Like Black Eagle Gu, it didn't want to guard against the Killing Ghost Man and also be cautious of other ghost survivors.
By surviving alone while excluding other ghost survivors, it saves much maneuvering and plotting.
Among the ten ghosts, seven eventually left separately. In contrast, Evil Fire Ghost, Hanged Ghost, and a Starving Ghost ford a temporary alliance, each harboring their own sches.
"So what we'll do next..." Hanged Ghost was about to speak when it suddenly perceived Evil Fire Ghost and Starving Ghost distance themselves from it quickly, then began to flee.
It was clear what just happened — the Killing Ghost Man had arrived.
So it, too, ran without hesitation.
Unfortunately, it was a step too late, as a trendous force struck with accompanying pain.
It was blasted over ten ters away.
"Damn it!" Hanged Ghost hurriedly got up, feeling deep regret.
It should have known staying too long would attract the Killing Ghost Man, forming an alliance was a mistake, failing to draw in other ghosts as substitutes. Instead, it got caught to set an example.
Getting up, it unhesitatingly sprinted into the village.
There are unknown dangers in Old Mountain Village, but they can't be more dangerous than the Killing Ghost Man, can they?
This commotion naturally drew the attention of other ghosts, all tensing up, knowing the Killing Ghost Man was on the move.
The good news was the Killing Ghost Man was at the village entrance; they had previously escaped unscathed. The bad news was the Killing Ghost Man had now entered the village, and who knows if the next ghost hit will be oneself.
Hanged Ghost barely escaped with its life, discovering it was lightly injured, and the Killing Ghost Man hadn't pursued further. Otherwise, with its current injuries, it couldn't escape the Killing Ghost Man's terrifying speed.
'I must find sowhere to hide!' A thought flashed through Hanged Ghost's mind.
There's a high probability of running into a Killing Ghost Man while wandering; hiding is the best thod. Fleeing is only a choice when hiding isn't possible.
The ghosts that entered the village earlier mostly found safe places to hide. Fortunately, ghosts don't need to eat or excrete, otherwise, it would add to the difficulty.
...
"Cooldown ti." Great Heaven Position watched the cooling of his teleportation ability. He had just attacked from behind a ghost in an instant, thanks to equipnt he picked up in Old Mountain Village.
Additionally, he could track and sense ghosts through the equipnt, which seed a bit redundant to him.
If not for the equipnt's necessity, he wouldn't need its effects; he could find the ghosts himself.
Thus, enhancent was impossible, his entire body suppressed, with the only benefit being the ability to complete the mission.
"This group of ghosts doesn't seem that strong, not much different from the last level. No surprise, they are cannon fodder."
