In the era of the supernatural, how did I become the source of terror?

An ominous black fog began to spread throughout the carriage, the light source gradually dimmed, and everyone became indistinct shadows in the fog.

This is a situation that no one has ever encountered before.

For a fleeting moment, Xu Ye wished that everything happening at that moment was an illusion.

He hoped it was all a prank arranged by reporters from Dajiang City TV, and that in a minute a tanned man carrying a camera and a fair-skinned, pretty female host would jump out and say:

"Did I scare you? Your expressions were priceless; we recorded them all. Want to see them?"

Unfortunately, no.

There was nothing there.

Everything is real.

It's all true!

From the beginning to now, it's been less than ten seconds; Xu Ye only had time to wipe the blood off his hands.

He didn't even know how to fight these unknown things.

To be honest, as a Sanda (Chinese kickboxing) specialist and a national second-level athlete, he has been in countless fights in his life.

If it were a human, I'd just punch them in the chin and they'd fall asleep immediately.

But what about ghosts?

Do ghosts have chins?

If not the chin, where else would you get it...?

Xu Ye clenched his fists instinctively; the situation inside the car was rapidly deteriorating.

After the black fog completely flooded into the carriage, all the lights went out instantly.

The carriage fell into a deathly silence.

A few seconds later, screams erupted.

"What's going on? Is there a power outage?"

"Where's the driver? Where's the railway police? Is anyone there?"

"Who's grabbing my leg? Don't touch me, get away!"

"Mom, I'm scared..."

The sounds of hurried footsteps, screams, curses, the thud of bodies hitting the ground, and strange groans rose and fell.

Everyone was like headless flies, pushing and shoving, trying to escape this terrifying carriage.

But they couldn't find the sensor door at all. The place that should have been a door was now smooth and flat, as if it were a naturally formed, dark coffin.

"It's gone! The door is gone?!" The student cried out in desperation, banging his head against the wall repeatedly.

Not only that, Xu Ye also noticed that the classmate who had gone to scout the next carriage had not returned at all.

This means that something extraordinary might have happened in the next carriage.

The subway was still moving steadily, and to escape the paranormal events, they had to find a way to get off at the next station.

"Master Xu, what should we do? Shall we go?" Wang Yu gripped Xu Ye's sleeve tightly, afraid of being left alone.

"It's not good yet, it's too chaotic. If this continues, there will be a stampede. We must unite everyone. I'll take command!"

Without hesitation, Xu Ye quickly stood on the chair, raised his phone, turned on the flashlight function, and shone it around.

Sizzle~

The strong light that could normally illuminate three or four meters could now only illuminate a space of less than half a meter in front of it, clearly affected by the black mist.

He gathered his strength in his dantian and roared:

"Everyone, be quiet!"

This sound was effective; at least half of the people stopped what they were doing and looked in this direction with confusion.

"Raise your phone, turn on flashlight mode, find the emergency exit sign, line up, one person holding another, don't be alone!"

"I...I'll listen to you...I'll go with you...Please take me away from here." A slightly panicked female voice rang out.

The speaker was a girl with delicate features. Xu Ye remembered that her name was Chen Xier, and she was the most beautiful girl in the School of Humanities.

She was accompanied by several of her sisters, all of whom looked panicked and clearly wanted Xu Ye's protection.

Under Xu Ye's command, a dozen or so faint lights appeared scattered in the black fog.

Although the light still couldn't illuminate the entire black fog, at least the scene in front of us could be seen clearly.

In the darkness, the entire space was twisting and folding in a bizarre way. What was originally less than thirty meters long now seemed to be hundreds of meters long.

The power of the ghosts seemed to have altered the spatial order.

The student who couldn't find the door earlier actually bumped his head against the wall of the carriage and bled profusely.

Worst of all, the bloody handprints on the glass had completely seeped in, and now the entire interior walls of the carriage, including the ceiling, were covered with all sorts of bloody handprints.

The ghost has completely invaded the interior of the carriage.

Xu Ye had a premonition that something even more terrifying would happen soon if he didn't leave quickly.

"Follow me! Don't let go!"

Xu Ye jumped off the chair, grabbed Wang Yu and rushed forward, the others holding hands and following behind.

He knew that he couldn't afford to panic at this time, or everything would be ruined.

His only thought was to take as many people as possible to the next carriage, and then open the door through the emergency handle after arriving at the station.

Once organized, the dozens of students quickly formed a long line.

Each person held hands with the others and slowly walked towards the sensor door hidden in the black mist.

Fifty meters...

Thirty meters...

Twenty meters...

Getting closer.

Xu Ye even felt that he could already see the fluorescent green emergency exit sign.

But at this moment, the concentration of that eerie, chilling black fog inside the carriage had reached an unbelievable level.

Many people can even feel that they are inhaling ice crystals into their lungs with every breath.

"ah--!"

A piercing scream rang out.

The boy at the very back was suddenly lifted up by something in the black mist, his body twisted into a bizarre angle in the air, and then crashed heavily to the ground, turning into a blurry mass of flesh and blood.

Blood splattered, instantly soaking those nearby.

"what!"

The two girls who were closest to each other practically jumped up, then lowered their heads, covered their faces, and fled without a care, disappearing into the black mist in an instant.

Even more strangely, a few seconds later, the dead boy started moving again.

A moment later, he even stood up in a strange posture.

Half of his face was smashed, and red and white fluids were scattered all over the ground.

But it was as if something unseen was lifting his arms, so he raised his hands, lowered his head, and continued to queue up behind the crowd.

Fear spread through the crowd like dominoes, and the fragile trust that had just been established was overwhelmed by the desire to survive.

In the panic, the crowd quickly split into two lines, one heading east and the other west.

"Don't believe him, this kid wants to use us as cannon fodder! Come with me!" Zhao Long's vicious voice rang out.

"You're talking nonsense! Master Xu is saving your life!" Wang Yu shouted.

Nevertheless, Zhao Long still led a group of people away, heading in another direction in an attempt to escape the strange corpse.

In extreme fear, people lose their judgment.

Fortunately, before the crowd dispersed, Xu Ye finally managed to touch the wall in front of the first row.

This indicates that the exit is nearby.

And those bloody handprints, like death warrants, finally covered the wall.

The strange phenomenon of the corpse earlier also gave Xu Ye some food for thought.

"There are unseen things in the black fog. We didn't encounter them when we were walking, but they suddenly appeared in the group and killed someone, which means that person triggered their killing pattern."

"So what is their catalyst?"

"Did that person encounter them? Or did they encounter something else?"

Xu Ye looked at the wall in front of him, pondered for a moment, and then reached out his hand with a resolute expression.

As a hand covered the bloody handprint on the wall, just as he had guessed, he heard a faint, wet, rubbing sound.

The medium was triggered, and at the same time, the scene behind them underwent a terrifying change.

In the blink of an eye, countless "people" emerged from the black mist.

These people stood beside them, walking silently in strange postures.

They were men and women of varying ages, and they all reeked of decay.

But these "people" all have one thing in common.

They had no eyes; the eyeballs inside their eye sockets seemed to have rotted away, leaving only a bottomless eye socket.

So each of them stretched out a palm and pressed it against the wall, their palms covered in blood, leaving clear handprints.

This is the path they took.

This is the origin of the bloody handprint on the wall.

At this moment, they all turned their heads and "looked" in Xu Ye's direction.

Xu Ye knew that he had triggered the ghost's killing pattern.

"Come on, come and kill me!" Xu Ye shouted, holding up his phone.

As long as he could see the physical form, he was confident that he could deal with these monsters with his own skills.

Completely unaware, somewhere behind them, a sensor door quietly opened.

A "person" wearing a dark blue police hat stood stiffly at the door, motionless.
