I'm being held captive by a monster

Chapter 196 Now, give me hope!
"..."

Xu Zhe stood in front of the door and moved his ears.

He kept locking onto and tracking Yu Shi's voice, and finally stopped in this room and didn't move again.

In other words, the owner of the coffee shop is inside the house.

But inside the door there was the sound of wind, rain... and singing.

There's no voice...

wrong……

There was a hint of suspicion in Xu Zhe's eyes.

There's a sound of something moving...

...Ants?

"Di Di!"

Just when he wanted to listen more deeply, the electronic lock made a slight sound.

Then the door opened a crack.

It was like inviting Xu Zhe in.

“…What’s that smell?”

Xu Zhe frowned, and his nose and ears trembled at the same time.

It is the sound of burning incense.

"fragrant?"

Liu Xu looked at the incense burning through the crack in the door and covered his nose.

"Follow me."

Xu Zhe turned his head and looked through the crack in the door.

After waving to Liu Xu, he pushed open the door.

Then his ears moved again and he looked up at the vase on the cabinet.

Three incense sticks of different colors are burning above.

"Boss! I remember now!"

"Among those humans and animals who went to North City, one was named Zhang Yunxi. Her ability was the Wu-level [Incense]."

"When her special incense is lit, the area where the incense lingers will form a field."

Liu Xu whispered behind Xu Zhe.

"But I don't know the specific effects within this area..."

He paused and scratched his head.

"And she clearly went to North City, so why would she be using her abilities here..."

"Could it be that the intelligence at the time was wrong? Or is it that her ability can be unleashed without her being present?"

Liu Xu glanced at Xu Zhe, as if he was talking to Xu Zhe, but also as if he was thinking to himself.

Xu Zhe snorted coldly.

"What effect can a useless Level E ability have? It doesn't matter. What's the harm in eating one more human or animal?"

He glanced at the house with the windows wide open, which looked a bit messy and desolate due to the raging wind and rain, and then he released the ghost domain with a bang!
A cold atmosphere suddenly spread!
The whole house and the whole building are covered!
The originally warm orange light flickered for a while, and then turned into a cold green light that was like a ghost fire in the underworld, making people feel cold all over!

The whole house felt like it had fallen into hell.

boom!
The lightning split the space like the sharp claws of a demon, and a thunder followed closely behind!
Xu Zhe felt his own ghost realm, and under Liu Xu's hesitant gaze, he strode into the room.

"clang!"

After he and Liu Xu entered the house at the same time and were in the incense area, the electronic door behind them closed automatically and locked with a beep.

"Taoyuan, you're trying to be mysterious..."

Xu Zhe's voice suddenly paused.

Then came a feeling of dizziness that even he couldn't resist.

But in less than half a second, the dizziness disappeared completely.

"This is……"

Xu Zhe looked at the environment in front of him and his pupils shrank!
Right at his feet were stones of strange shapes.

And in front of him was a bottomless abyss!

In the abyss is a black...giant snake?
Xu Zhe was stunned.

The sounds of wind, rain and Cantonese love songs mixed together in my ears, still a mess.

From the sound of it, he didn't feel the change in environment.

"Liu Xu?!"

He turned his head away.

Liu Xu, who had been following closely behind him, was now separated from him as if by a sea.

He just stood there blankly, as if he had lost his soul.

"Da da da!"

Xu Zhe frowned and was about to go over when a series of tiny sounds came from the abyss!

Then, a gigantic hand, twice as big as him, pitch black with a strange face, suddenly jumped out!

"boom!"

But before it could get close to Xu Zhe, it was suddenly penetrated and disintegrated by an unknown force!
"Ant?"

Looking at the head that fell in front of him and was larger than his entire body, Xu Zhe was stunned for a moment, then suddenly looked up.

wrong……

How could this be an abyss or ravine in front of him?
This is clearly the gap between the floors!

The gap that was originally so thin that it was almost invisible now lay before his eyes, like a chasm!
The black mass inside is the black hair stuck in the gap and tangled together!

The so-called pebbles around us are actually grains of dust that were so fine that they were invisible before!
Xu Zhe looked around again.

The trash can in the distance looks like a fairy mountain reaching into the sky.

The coffee table was so high that he couldn't even see the top when he looked up!
Not to mention the other furniture in the house.

Moreover, Xu Zhe's ghost domain, which could cover the entire building, only covered a few dozen square meters at this moment!
I... became smaller?

Or...is this an illusion?
Which incense field is this effect from? !
Xu Zhe suddenly reacted!

"Roar!"

suddenly!

A lion's roar like thunder was heard!
There was no time at all for Xu Zhe to adapt to the new perspective and changes!
A lion that was more than ten times bigger than him, with its body burning with golden flames, was rushing towards him with its mouth wide open!

The devouring tongues of fire were extremely hot in the strong wind!
"Haha...is this your method?"

After figuring out the reason for the change, Xu Zhe also snorted coldly.

"Is this the field you went to so much trouble to get me into?"

"That's all? A bunch of useless people and animals!"

His eyes were wide open as he looked at Wang Xi who was walking on fire, and his shoulder blades bulged!
"call!"

A pair of pitch-black bat wings suddenly opened!

His entire body transformed into a human-shaped bat in the blink of an eye!

The black hair like steel needles trembled slightly in his ears!
"boom!"

Xu Zhe's eyes, glowing scarlet in the dark green ghostland, stared directly at the lion in front of him.

There was a look of brutality on his face!
A series of sonic booms came!

The raging noise seemed to sense the murderous intent in Xu Zhe's heart, and under his control, it gathered together like a meat grinder, swallowing the roaring lion in one gulp!
"Um?!"

But there was no sound of flesh being torn or bones being broken.

This lion was like a phantom, and was completely unharmed!

The tips of Xu Zhe's ears trembled slightly.

Fake! He turned his head suddenly, his pupils shrinking!
The bat wings behind it flapped violently, but before it flew into the air, a huge force and heat suddenly came!

"Roar!!!"

The lion in front of Xu Zhe dissipated like bubbles.

Wang Xi had already jumped high from his side, and his sharp claws slammed firmly on Xu Zhe's body. He actually knocked Xu Zhe to the ground with just brute force!
The golden flame on the claw climbed up Xu Zhe's body as if guided by gasoline, and burned fiercely!

The pale green coldness in the ghost realm was forcibly dispelled!
"boom!!"

Wang Xi made almost no adjustments after landing with a bang!
The fangs flashed, the veins on the bulging thighs and claws bulged, and he suddenly exerted force and rushed towards Xu Zhe who was knocked to the ground!

But it turned out to be empty-handed!
Xu Zhe, who was passively in contact with the ground, actually flew up in violation of physical common sense at the moment before Wang Xi pounced!
No, it can’t be said that he was flying, but it was as if a thug picked him up from the air!
Just with this one lift, Xu Zhe and Wang Xi instantly distanced themselves from each other!
"Roar!"

When the attack failed, Wang Xi's whole body was engulfed in flames.

His golden pupils suddenly contracted, as if he sensed something, and he rolled over and jumped away!

And just as he jumped away!
The ground shook violently!
A cloud of dust stirred up where Wang Xi had just been disappeared as if it had evaporated!
"Crash!"

Blood splattered down!

Although his reaction speed was extremely fast, there was still a sharp wound on Wang Xi's neck under his mane that turned into golden flames!

It was like being hit hard by a steel whip with sinister barbs in the air!
Yu Shi, who was hiding under the shoe rack at the door, raised her head and bit her lip.

To cross an entire level, to control and change Xu Zhe's sight without making contact, while Xu Zhe was already on guard, was quite difficult for her...

It’s almost impossible even in theory!

but now……

Even if it doesn’t work, it has to work!
Xu Zhe was flapping his bat wings in mid-air.

Blood was also flowing from the wound on his head that had just appeared from being knocked to the ground.

"Uh!"

Yu Shi groaned.

With his eyes fixed on Wang Xi and concentrating on controlling the sounds around him, Xu Zhe's pupils suddenly dilated uncontrollably for a moment!
When he came to his senses again, Wang Xi, who was fleeing in a panic, had disappeared from his sight!
Yu Shi's face also turned pale.

"call!"

With Yu Shi's assistance, Wang Xi had a rare chance to catch his breath!

After he dodged the flames several times, his body was covered with wounds!
Taking advantage of the time to catch his breath, the golden flame on Wang Xi's wound suddenly ignited as if it was doused with oil when it came into contact with the blood!
The surging tongues of fire in the air transformed into little lions roaring.

In just a few seconds, the wound was almost roasted and the bleeding stopped immediately.

The delayed pain came like a tide.

But the breathing time is fleeting.

Since he couldn’t see, Xu Zhe in the air simply closed his eyes!
"..."

He licked the bright red blood on his lips, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sinister smile.

I heard you...

In his ears, the sound of Wang Xi's raging flames constantly digesting the air was so harsh!
"boom!"

Thunder rumbled through the heavy rain!
“So loud!”

Xu Zhe suddenly opened his eyes.

His bloodlust and brutality suddenly intensified his ghost domain!
The auricle suddenly grew larger visibly, and a blue thunderstorm seemed to surge into the scarlet pupil!

next second!
The sound seemed to tear the space apart!

Since I can't see...

Then full coverage!
Xu Zhe flapped his wings with the position where he had just heard Wang Xi's voice as the center!

In his eyes, the fleeting sound of thunderstorms had turned into countless bone-cutting blades!
Like a tornado, it swept through his ghost domain!
"call!"

Wang Xi's whole body seemed to be boiling with flames!

He felt it.

Although he couldn't see it, he could clearly feel the sounds around him, which were no longer in the form of sound waves.

But it's a murderous weapon!

"Oh!"

Golden light burst out of Wang Xi's pupils, as if it could spit out flames!

The golden flames on his body turned into a pair of flaming wings!

Tongues of flames gushed out, using the heat to fight against the countless sonic blades that were like a tornado, and at the same time, they took Wang Xi away from the center of the sonic blade blockade!
Blood splattered again!

This time, the torn flesh on Wang Xi's body was heart-wrenching!
It's like rolling around in a meat grinder!
"Oh!"

Another gust of wind is coming!
The window, which was already wide open, was hit hard against the wall!

The mosquito screen window trembled uncontrollably in the wind like a shirtless person in the cold winter, and the thumping sound was like a heartbeat.

The sky seemed to be tilting, so that the heavy rain no longer fell straight down, but was shot out at an angle by the wind!

Fine raindrops were separated by the screen window and splashed into the room.

It floated down into this shrunken dark green ghostland, stained with a sinister chill, and fell to the ground drop by drop like a meteorite!

"That does not work!"

Wang Xi's body was engulfed in fierce flames, but he controlled his body and shrunk it to half its size.

The raindrops, which were almost as big as his body, carried with them countless sound blades, severely blocking his escape route!
Even though it has been shrunk to the size of an ordinary person, it is still dangerous everywhere!

"Is this the trap that you, a bunch of humans and animals, created with all your might?"

Xu Zhe in the air no longer looks like a bat.

There was still a pair of pitch-black bat wings behind him.

But his body turned into a human form, and he kept twisting the ring in his hand with a playful look on his face.

"An ant trying to shake a tree, a mantis trying to stop a chariot. Are all these people so stupid?"

Drops of rain fell with a loud bang, splashing on the ground, and in Xu Zhe's eyes it seemed as if small lakes were formed.

"The speed of sound in air is 340 meters per second."

"The speed in water is 1,500 meters per second, four times faster than in air."

"Taoyuan, you wanted to use noise to interfere with my ability, but didn't you take into account the blessing of rain on me?"

"It seems that losing a host has put you back quite a bit..."

Xu Zhe closed his eyes and filtered out the countless noises.

In his ears was the disordered and heavy breathing of Wang Xi, the scattered footsteps of his constantly dodging, the sizzling sound of the flames turning water into steam, and the thumping sound of his heart beating under high load.

And the roar of fear, pain, irritation...all kinds of emotions mixed together.

"No more hiding!"

"Don't worry about that glutton! Give me hallucinations!"

"If we continue like this, we won't have any chance at all!"

Wang Xi's golden pupils looked at Yunxia who was controlling Liu Xu.

The splashing raindrops made the sound blade composed of countless sounds even lighter and more lively.

Once you are scratched by splashing water droplets or even accidentally step on the water, it will feel like stepping on a landmine!

The lively voice inside will burst out instantly!

And now...

The rain was pouring down in sheets, leaving almost no place to stand!
Even if Xu Zhe can't see, even if he can't lock onto it with his sight, he can just bombard it relentlessly!

What's more, he is now hovering in the air, and the output environment is too comfortable!
Although there was a lot of noise, Xu Zhe had plenty of time to switch without restraint and no one disturbed him at all!
If the situation is not reversed, not to mention wasting Xu Zhe's chance to give Yu Yu the death order, everyone will surely die!
"it is good!"

Yunxia let out a light breath.

In the current situation, only by fighting to the death can we have hope of winning!
"Wang Xi! When your body reaches its limit, I will give you a warning in a hallucination!"

"Now, give me hope! Give me motivation! Give me faith! Give me courage!"

"I'll pull you into the illusion and give you power!"
