Chapter 387: "Fantasy Night: Lin Xiaoyong Enters the Magic Castle"
Lin Xiao stood alone in front of the eerie castle, the night wind blowing the corners of her clothes wildly, making a "swish" sound. The moon seemed to be covered by an invisible big hand, only a few faint rays of light were revealed, making everything around shrouded in a hazy shadow.
Lin Xiao tightly grasped the sword in her hand, her palms were full of sweat, and her eyes were full of vigilance and anxiety, like a frightened deer. "This damn place is so gloomy, it feels like a monster will pop up at any time." She muttered softly and swallowed nervously.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew past, and the surrounding trees shook wildly as if they were under a spell. The leaves made a rustling sound, as if whispering some horrible secret.
"Who? Come out here quickly! Stop playing tricks there!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly. His voice seemed particularly abrupt in the silent night, yet it also had a barely perceptible tremor.
However, the only response she got was the whistling wind, as if the whole world was turning a deaf ear to her cries. At this moment, the gate of the ancient castle seemed to be slowly pushed by a mysterious force, making a creepy "creaking" sound. A rotten, stale smell came to her face like a tide, and Lin Xiao couldn't help but cover her mouth and nose.
"Damn it!" She cursed, but still gritted her teeth and stepped through the door carefully.
As soon as he entered, the door behind him slammed shut with a bang. The huge noise echoed in the empty castle, scaring Lin Xiao so much that he trembled all over.
"What is going on?" Lin Xiao's voice trembled, and cold sweat kept coming out of his forehead and sliding down his cheeks.
The hall was filled with thick fog, making it almost impossible for her to see the road ahead. Lin Xiao could only stretch out her hand and grope her way forward slowly like a blind person.
"Tick, tick..." The sound of dripping water was clearly audible in the empty hall. Every drop seemed to be hitting her heart, making her heart beat faster and faster.
Lin Xiao's breathing became rapid, her lips trembled slightly, and she muttered to herself: "What the hell is this place?"
Just then, a dark shadow flashed past her from behind like a ghost, bringing with it a gust of cool breeze.
Lin Xiao turned around abruptly, his eyes wide open, but he saw nothing.
"Don't hide, if you have the guts, come out and fight openly!" Lin Xiao shouted, his voice full of anger and fear.
At this moment, a sinister laugh suddenly sounded in the hall, as if it came from the depths of hell.
“Hahahaha, Lin Xiao, you can’t escape… You are destined to be a prisoner of this castle!”
Lin Xiao's face turned pale instantly, without a trace of blood. Her hands holding the sword tightly turned white due to the force, and her body trembled involuntarily.
"Who are you? Why do you treat me like this?" Lin Xiao's voice was filled with tears and she was about to collapse.
Suddenly, the lights in the hall flickered, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, creating an extremely terrifying atmosphere.
"This is going to scare me to death!" Lin Xiao couldn't help but shout.
At this time, a figure slowly walked out of the fog, blurry and unclear.
"You...who are you?" Lin Xiao's voice trembled even more violently.
The figure gradually became clear, and it turned out to be a monster with a distorted face.
"Ah!" Lin Xiao screamed in fright and turned and ran.
She ran desperately in the castle, and the cobblestone road under her feet seemed to have no end.
