Chapter 361: Lin Xiao's Shocking Counterattack
Lin Xiao was trapped alone in this eerie castle. The fog around her was as thick as ink that could not be dissolved, making her feel as if she was in an endless dark abyss. Her heartbeat accelerated rapidly, and every beat was like a war drum beating in her ears. Tension and fear intertwined in her heart.
"What the hell is this place!" Lin Xiao frowned, her eyes wide open, her eyes full of fear and helplessness. She clenched her hands into fists, her nails dug deep into her palms, but she didn't feel any pain at all.
At this moment, the eerie laughter echoed in the castle again. The sound seemed to come from all directions, making it impossible to tell its source.
"Who? Who is playing tricks over there! Come out here if you're brave enough!" Lin Xiao roared loudly, his voice trembling with fear.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed past her from behind like a ghost, bringing with it a cold wind that blew her hair.
Lin Xiao turned around suddenly, but saw nothing, "Damn, what on earth is that!" Her breathing became rapid and her chest heaved violently.
At this moment, the torches on the walls went out one after another, and darkness instantly swallowed up the entire castle.
"Ah!" Lin Xiao couldn't help but let out a scream. The sound echoed in the empty castle, sounding particularly shrill.
She groped frantically in the darkness, her hands constantly touching the cold and damp walls around her.
"What is all this!" Lin Xiao's voice was filled with tears, and tears were welling up in his eyes.
Suddenly, without warning, a hand was placed on her shoulder.
"Ah!" Lin Xiao screamed again, and the hairs on her body stood up. She tried her best to shake off the hand, her body trembling non-stop, "Don't touch me! Don't touch me!"
"Hahahaha..." The eerie laughter became more and more arrogant, as if mocking her fear.
"Come out if you have the guts. What's the point of hiding?" Lin Xiao pretended to be calm and shouted loudly, but the trembling in her voice betrayed her extreme fear.
At this time, a faint light flickered not far ahead.
Lin Xiao walked towards the light cautiously. Every step seemed extremely difficult, as if there was a bottomless abyss under his feet.
When I got closer, I found it was an ancient book emitting a mysterious light. The cover of the book was covered with strange runes, as if telling an ancient and mysterious story.
"What is this?" Lin Xiao stared at the ancient book in confusion, his heart filled with curiosity and fear.
Just as she was hesitating whether to reach out and touch the ancient book, a low and hoarse voice sounded in her ears: "Be careful, this is not something you can touch!"
Lin Xiao was frightened by the sudden voice, "Who? Who is talking?"
"I am the guardian of this castle. This ancient book contains great danger." The voice sounded again, with an unquestionable majesty.
Lin Xiao bit her lip, curiosity overcoming fear in her heart, "Dangerous? Then I must take a closer look!" As she said that, she resolutely stretched out her trembling hand.
Just as her fingers were about to touch the ancient book, a powerful force spread throughout her body like an electric current.
"Ah!" Lin Xiao screamed in pain and his body fell backwards involuntarily.
