The two were slightly stunned, and followed the direction that Kaguya Shinomiya was looking. Then, they both saw a very obvious figure in the dark forest, standing there quietly, motionless.

Although they couldn't see each other's appearance clearly, the three of them could feel that the other party was staring at them.

Who is that? !

At this moment, a creepy feeling emerged in Shinomiya Kaguya and Kiana. Kiana immediately stood up and assumed a fighting stance.

This time the mission scene is in a forest, not a school. She can't find her usual baseball bat, and players can't bring anything in from reality, so they can only fight with bare hands. At most, they can pick up some stones on the roadside as weapons.

Kaguya Shinomiya took a few steps back to avoid being chosen as the first target of attack. Although she could not help, she knew that at least she should not become a burden. Therefore, as she slowly retreated, she kept her eyes on the figure.

Unlike Kaguya Shinomiya, there is a special hint in Kiana and Haito's eyes, which should be a system function after becoming a regular player.

They could see that in the pitch-black environment, the sign of the strange paradise appeared particularly conspicuous in their field of vision, but the content was [???].

Such a hint clearly tells them that there is indeed something in the darkness!

"When it's gray, we should..."

"Hoo~!"

Before he could finish his words, Hui Shi's figure disappeared from the spot, and then a chaotic roar was heard in the darkness.

Seeing this, the two were instantly stunned.

Immediately afterwards, a flash of cold light flashed in the darkness, followed by a strange scream. The movement in the darkness gradually disappeared and turned into the sound of footsteps.

As the footsteps got closer, Huishi's figure slowly walked out of the darkness and reappeared in the eyes of Kiana and Shinomiya Kaguya.

At the same time, there was a trace of blood on the axe in Huishi's right hand, and in his left hand, he was holding a dying, skinny... monster?

Seeing this scene, the two of them pursed their lips and were speechless.

Soon, Huishi returned to the two of them, threw the axe aside, and then threw the monster, whose life or death was unknown and was dragging in his left hand, next to the fire so that the two of them could see it more clearly.

"With such a bright fire in the darkness, how could the ghosts in the forest not be curious? Regardless of whether all of them will be attracted by the fire, as long as one or two of them come, that will be enough."

With a sweet smile, Hui Shi said to Kiana, "Kiana, you were with me on the last mission, so you should know, right? It's obviously faster to ask these guys directly for intelligence than for us to slowly search for it."

"So, what does this bright fire in the dark night mean? This situation that attracts ghosts and moths to the flame is equivalent to?"

Hui Shi asked.

The two blinked, somewhat bewildered.

Then Kiana asked: "Equal to what?"

"It's like a constant stream of intelligence delivered to your door!"

Hui Shi continued with a grin, "What could be better than just sitting there and having intelligence constantly delivered to your door?"

"Pah-sha~"

Suddenly, another slight noise came from the darkness.

Suddenly, the three of them turned their heads to look.

Kiana and Kaguya Shinomiya still had confused expressions, but Haitoki smiled happily again and said, "Another one~?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hui Shi disappeared again.

-

Half an hour later.

Looking at the pile of "corpses" that was about to form a small hill, Kiana and Shinomiya Kaguya did not feel speechless or scared, but numb instead.

Can you imagine? In less than half an hour, they sat by the campfire, watching ghost after ghost approach, and then all of them were caught and brought back by Hui Shi as if they were kidnapped.

Afterwards, without any interrogation, he was thrown aside like trash.

No, it shouldn’t be said that there is no interrogation, but that there is no time to interrogate, because the next batch of ghosts will arrive soon, and Huishi will run out to knock them out and bring them back.

I don't know if it's because they have never seen such a scene, or because of Hui Shi's ever-present aura of pressure, but these captured ghosts didn't make trouble even after they woke up from their coma. They lay quietly in the same place without moving, and even when they were pressed down by the following ghosts, they didn't dare to make a sound.

Finally, after about ten minutes.

No more ghosts seemed to approach in the darkness.

I don’t know whether they noticed something was wrong, or whether the ghosts nearby had been almost caught by Huishi.

Anyway, after making sure that no more ghosts would approach in the near future, Hui Shi returned to the campfire with a hint of regret and a look of unsatisfied desire. He sat down and tended to the fire, adding a few more logs. He then took out the curtains he had pulled down from the house and began to wipe the axe: "My ghost friends, let's have a chat."

When saying this, Huishi smiled very sweetly. If the environment at the scene was not like this, Huishi's smile would definitely be beautiful enough to attract everyone, young and old, men and women.

But now, all the living and dead people present felt only the chill.

Kiana and Kaguya Shinomiya looked at the ghosts lying on the ground without saying a word, and then looked at the smiling Hui. For a moment, they couldn't tell who was the monster.

81

Chapter 81 Such a lush forest, let's set it on fire...

"Okay, let's organize the information we've obtained."

Still by the campfire, Huishi had completed the interrogation of all the ghosts.

At the same time, Hui Shi has not forgotten the virtue of never wasting. After interrogating a ghost, he killed it and finally earned 30 points.

Even though Huishi caught a lot of ghosts, they were actually just little ghosts. These little ghosts had no special abilities other than scaring people, and you wouldn't get any points if you killed them.

There are a few ghosts that can threaten the lives of ordinary people. After killing them, you will get points, but it is still not enough in front of Hui Shi.

They couldn't imagine that they were just going to work and scaring people normally, but they were suddenly arrested. Not only that, but their value was squeezed out and their lives were ended.

As for whether these ghosts will conceal or reveal false information?

To be honest, it doesn't matter.

Even if it was a mistake, it would be all the more reason to cause trouble for other ghosts.

"Whoo~"

Exhaling, Shinomiya Kaguya adjusted her strange mood and said, "Miss Huitoki, if you don't mind, I'll summarize it for you."

"Oh?"

Looking at Shinomiya Kaguya with some surprise and joy, Huishi smiled and said, "No problem, go ahead."

"After your series of interrogations just now, Miss Huishi, we did get a lot of useful information. However, many of those monsters couldn't even speak clearly, and a lot of their information was repetitive. So while it may seem like they said a lot of information, when you really put it together, it's not that much."

After a pause, Kaguya Shinomiya seemed to be thinking about her words.

After waiting for a few seconds, Kaguya Shinomiya continued, "This forest, or rather this area, was once a quiet rural village. However, for some reason, the village and the forest merged into one, and the villagers who once lived in the village also merged with the forest and turned into monsters."

"At first, the villagers still had some sense of self, but as time went by, this sense of self gradually diminished, and eventually, the villagers turned into outright monsters."

"They will play and frolic with any living person who appears in this forest when night falls."

"It doesn't look like play at all to me."

Kiana suddenly interrupted and complained.

Shinomiya Kaguya nodded slightly and continued, "Of course, for us, this isn't a game of fun, but a fatal game of life and death. However, in the eyes of these ghosts, they are just playing."

Although……

The words paused again, and Shinomiya Kaguya looked at Huishi.

These playful ghosts just hit a wall this time.

Shaking her head slightly, Kaguya Shinomiya continued, "The death of a living person is merely the result of a 'game' for these ghosts. It's nothing unusual. The above is the general intelligence I've pieced together after integrating the information revealed by the ghosts."

"They don't seem to have much useful information in their cognition. They just 'play' with the living people who come to this forest according to their own preferences and abilities."

"Only..."

After a pause, Kaguya Shimonomiya continued, "Only the words of one of the ghosts are of concern."

"I know. It's the tall, most powerful-looking ghost, right?"

Kiana said.

Recalling the group of ghosts that Hui had captured, one of the ghosts looked unusual at first glance. It had a body three meters tall, twisted facial features, mutated limbs, and a black hole on its belly. Such a weird appearance made people feel fear for no reason at first glance.

Although this feeling of fear disappeared after Hui Shi smashed it to the ground and kicked it several times.

Shinomiya Kaguya nodded slightly and continued, "Well, the ghost said: 'Once we enter this forest, we can no longer escape. It will be waiting for us, our future companions.'"

"This sentence is very worrying. Future companion? What does it mean?"

"Most likely it will transform us into ghosts. Once we become ghosts, won't we be its companions?"

Huishi spread his hands and said nonchalantly.

But Huishi didn't care, but Kiana and Shinomiya Kaguya couldn't help but care. They were all stunned, and then said worriedly: "Turning us into ghosts, wouldn't that be very dangerous?!"

"Don't worry. If we don't do anything, we might actually be transformed into ghosts. But will you just sit there and wait for death?"

Huishi asked with a smile.

The two shook their heads.

Spreading his hands, Hui Shi continued, "So, you can believe what ghosts say, but don't be fooled or frightened by them, or you'll play right into their hands."

"If you're constantly worried about this and that, a potentially safe situation will end in failure because of your hesitation."

Standing up and waving his hand, Hui Shi said: "So we should not be afraid of ghosts! Face them bravely!"

The two of them were stunned for a moment, then looked helpless.

Although this is true, it is still difficult for them to immediately become as lawless as Hui Shi.

Standing up as well, Shinomiya Kaguya said, "Ms. Haitoki, should we look somewhere else next? Staying in the same place all the time is not only passive, but it also makes it impossible to gather clues and obtain intelligence."

He gave Shinomiya Kaguya a thumbs up and said, "Very good, Kaguya, you have begun to slowly overcome your fear and try to take the initiative."

"Next, we naturally have to go check out other places. We haven't reunited with the other players yet. We can get a lot of information by reuniting with them. Also, there are no ghosts coming to this area anymore, so we have to find another place to hunt."

Hui Shi said.

"Then take the simple torches I made earlier and set off."

Pointing to a simple torch made of branches and rags beside him, Huishi said.

Kiana and Kaguya Shinomiya nodded in unison, picked up the torches and lit them in the bonfire, then prepared to set off.

But just as they raised their legs to move, Huishi suddenly stopped, looked at the campfire and seemed to be thinking about something.

"Miss Huitoki?"

Shinomiya Kaguya shouted in confusion.

"Gray, what do you want to do?"

Kiana, who was more familiar with Huishi, raised an eyebrow and asked.

Turning his head to look at the two of them, Hui Shi said: "I'm thinking about setting it on fire... No, it's nothing, there's no need to do that at the moment."

After saying that, Huishi put out the bonfire and approached with an axe.

When the two looked at Hui with complicated expressions, don't think that their hearing was bad. Did you just want to say set fire to the mountain?

Swallowing her saliva, Kiana said, "Huishi, don't be so extreme. Put away your plan to set the mountain on fire."

"Don't worry, I'm just thinking about it."

"Don't even think about it. I'm worried you might actually set a fire!"

"No way~"

"Then look at me and don't look away."

"Stop dawdling! Time is money, let's go! GO!"

"Gray! Don't change the subject! You really wouldn't set a fire, would you?"

Watching the interaction between Huishi and Kiana, Shinomiya Kaguya was a little confused, but she quickly came to her senses, prayed in her heart that Huishi would not do anything rash, and immediately followed with a torch.
