Chapter 180 "A Fantasy World: Lin Xiao and Mo Yu's Horrifying Night in the Castle"
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu stood in front of the eerie castle. The moon in the night sky was completely covered by thick dark clouds. Not a single ray of light could shine through. The whole world seemed to be completely swallowed up by darkness.
Lin Xiao's face was pale, her eyes were as big as two huge copper bells, and her voice was trembling like a fallen leaf in the wind, "Mo Yu, I... why do I feel that this place is so gloomy that it can suck people's souls away, is there really something super scary in there?" She grabbed Mo Yu's sleeves tightly, her palms were full of cold sweat, and her body couldn't stop shaking slightly.
Mo Yu's expression was as solemn as a thousand-year-old ice. He tightly grasped the sword in his hand that was flashing with cold light, his eyes firm and sharp, "Xiao'er, don't be afraid, I'm here. Even if the King of Hell comes, he won't be able to hurt you at all!"
They slowly approached the gate of the castle, and each step seemed to be of great weight. The gate was like an open devil's mouth, emitting a chilling aura.
Lin Xiao's teeth kept chattering. "How did the door open by itself? Is there some ghost controlling it? Oh my god, I want to go home, I want to go home!" Her voice was filled with tears and she was almost on the verge of collapse.
Mo Yu took a deep breath, his eyes filled with determination, "No matter what is causing this trouble, we must go in and find out. Even if it is a dangerous place, we will go in!"
As soon as he stepped through the door, a cold wind blew past, making Lin Xiao's hair fly all over the place.
"Oh my god, the wind is so cold. It feels like countless cold hands are touching my neck. It's so scary!" Lin Xiao screamed, and her voice changed tone.
Mo Yu quickly protected Lin Xiao behind him, "Xiao'er, don't be afraid, I'm here!"
The hall was filled with a strong, stale smell, like an ancient tomb that had not been ventilated for a thousand years, which made people's stomachs churn. The torches on the wall flickered with a weak light, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, as if they would go out at any time.
Lin Xiao's eyes widened, and he looked around in horror. "What's that smell? It feels like something has been rotting here for a long, long time. I... I can't stand it!"
At this moment, there was a strange sound of footsteps, and the sound echoed in the empty hall, like a call from hell.
"Who? Who's there? Come out here quickly and stop playing tricks!" Lin Xiao shouted at the top of her lungs, her voice full of fear and anger.
Mo Yu looked around vigilantly, "Come out! What kind of hero is it to hide your head and show your tail!"
Suddenly, a dark shadow passed by them quickly from behind, bringing with it a gust of eerie cold wind.
Lin Xiao was so scared that he almost collapsed to the ground, "Mo Yu, I... I'm scared, I'm really scared!"
Mo Yu turned around quickly and chased in the direction where the shadow disappeared, "Xiao'er, follow me closely!"
Lin Xiao followed closely behind, panting heavily, "Mo Yu, wait for me, wait for me!"
They came to a room filled with a strong smell of blood. In the middle of the room stood a huge coffin, which was covered with strange runes and exuded an evil aura.
Lin Xiao covered his mouth, his eyes filled with fear, "This...are there zombies here? I don't want to become food for zombies!"
Mo Yu approached the coffin cautiously, holding the sword tighter in his hand, "Xiao'er, stand away."
Just as Mo Yu was about to open the coffin, a sinister sneer came from behind him.
"Hahahaha, you can't escape, this is where you will die!"
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu turned around and saw a hideous monster appear at the door. The monster's eyes flashed blood-red light, black smoke spewed out of its mouth, and its sharp claws flashed coldly under the firelight.
"What the hell is this thing? Why does it look so scary?" Lin Xiao's voice was trembling so much that it was almost inaudible.
The monster pounced on them at lightning speed.
Mo Yu went forward without hesitation and started a fierce fight with the monster. His sword skills were sharp, and every move was full of determination to kill.
"Xiao'er, find a chance to run!" Mo Yu shouted while fighting the monster.
"No, I won't leave you alone!" Lin Xiao said gritting his teeth.
The monster's attack was extremely fierce. Mo Yu gradually couldn't resist it anymore and suffered multiple injuries.
Lin Xiao was extremely anxious, "Mo Yu, be careful!"
At this moment, Lin Xiao suddenly discovered that the monster's weakness was on its back.
"Mo Yu, attack its back!" Lin Xiao shouted.
Mo Yu heard Lin Xiao's hint, found the right moment, and stabbed the monster's back with a sword.
The monster screamed, fell to the ground, and disappeared into a cloud of black smoke.
Lin Xiao ran over and supported Mo Yu, "Mo Yu, are you okay?"
Mo Yu panted, "I'm fine, Xiao'er, let's get out of here quickly."
However, before they could leave the room, countless dark shadows suddenly appeared around them and surrounded them...
