Chapter 521: Familiar ghost?
The Black Abyss was undoubtedly a gift that came right to Lin Chen's doorstep.
He had originally planned to go to the ghost laboratory after catching a certain number of ghosts.
With a Tongtian Gui in hand, it is easier to show his abilities.
During the day, Lin Chen saw Heiyuan talking to the proprietress, so he naturally knew that Heiyuan would come over at night.
So the moment Heiyuan walked in, Lin Chen set his eyes on him.
And after the other party opened his door without knowing the consequences, he couldn't wait to take the initiative.
Such a ghost with a middle level of Tongtian disappeared directly like mud in the sea.
With Lin Chen's background, at the Tongtian level, only ghosts with peak ghost power and very special ghosts can truly fight him.
After dealing with the Black Abyss, Lin Chen did not go downstairs.
Instead, he prepared to attack the two ghosts in the next room.
Now that he's here, he certainly won't waste it.
After catching the last two ghosts in this inn, you can head to the ghost laboratory.
Lin Chen stood in front of the door.
He took out the wire very naturally, inserted it into the door lock, and twisted it gently.
“Crack!”
The door opened.
Then, Lin Chen moved sideways and went in.
He had used this operation many times and was very familiar with it. He was even too lazy to communicate with the ghost inside the door. He would just catch it and sell it.
is the bottom line.
However, as soon as he entered, Lin Chen's expression was slightly stunned.
He saw two ghosts.
One of the ghosts had power only at the peak of Ghost King level. Lin Chen did not look at him for long, but instead focused his attention on the other ghost.
The situation of this ghost was exactly as the proprietress described.
The temperament is really outstanding!
This is a man. His face makes him look like a middle-aged man. He looks ordinary, but his temperament is very extraordinary. Just standing there, he has an aura of a transcendent superior, as if he is a natural leader.
"This kind of ghost... is definitely worth a lot of money!"
Lin Chen's eyes lit up, and he subconsciously licked the corner of his mouth, revealing a bright smile.
The two ghosts opposite were also looking at Lin Chen.
When the middle-aged male ghost saw Lin Chen suddenly enter the room, he looked a little surprised. Obviously, Lin Chen's intrusion was somewhat beyond his expectations.
The expression of the Ghost King was extremely wonderful.
His face was full of disbelief, and his eyes were full of complexity.
"Good evening, I'm from the Ghost Market Tour Group. We're having an event right now and offering free air tickets." Lin Chen's ghost power surged, and he showed rare interest and greeted them.
"You are..." The middle-aged man seemed to have thought of something, and did not rush to take action, but murmured.
"Your Majesty! He is Chen! Human Chen!" The Ghost King shouted loudly and recognized Lin Chen's identity at the first moment.
"Eh? Was it exposed so quickly? It should be because I opened the door full of rule power that he guessed it. But the reaction was so fast, probably because he paid a lot of attention to me."
Lin Chen looked at the Ghost King with interest. At the same time, a small red ball flew out from his body and went straight into the Ghost King's mouth, sealing it.
This red ball has the function of blocking the chat system.
He rarely uses this function recently.
Apart from the instant kills, the ghosts he faced were all strong. The strong men in Yinhuangzhou had basically never entered the horror game, because the highest level of the copy had only opened six-star copies so far.
But it is very likely that this five-star ghost has entered the dungeon. Lin Chen doesn't want this guy to use the ghost player system to pass on his information without anyone knowing.
Made a protective measure.
The ghost king's voice stopped abruptly, and he subconsciously tried to take the small ball out of his mouth with both hands.
"Certainly!"
Lin Chen just pointed his finger and imprisoned him directly.
For ghosts at the Ghost King level, he can basically be called the master. His words are followed by laws, but they are just basic operations.
"You have actually reached this level!" Seeing that the Ghost King was only sealed but not killed, the middle-aged male ghost did not take it too seriously, but looked at Lin Chen in great surprise.
"It's just been a while since the breakthrough, so few people know about it yet."
Lin Chen did not think much about it. There was no ghost in the horror world who didn't know him. He just explained calmly and rushed out suddenly, ready to get rid of the ghost in front of him first.
After this brief contact, he already felt that this ghost was very powerful. After all, since he knew his identity and could remain so calm, he must have great confidence in his own strength.
I heard the Ghost King call him Your Majesty.
I think he must be the king of some ghost country, no wonder he has such temperament.
As soon as Lin Chen came up, he threw a powerful punch straight at the opponent's face.
The middle-aged male ghost seemed to want to say something, but when he saw Lin Chen launching an attack, he hesitated and suppressed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Instead, he exchanged a punch with Lin Chen.
"boom!"
The entire deserted inn trembled.
A lot of dust fell from the roof.
The proprietress Sangui downstairs was surprised again.
"How is it possible? He was able to fight with Chen and make such a big noise?"
"Even Hei Yuan fell silently in Chen's hands, so who is the origin of the ghost in the room?"
"In the future, be careful of ghosts whose strength you can't tell! You can't always assume that the other party has special abilities to conceal their breath, because they might be a great evil!"
When the ghosts outside saw the trembling of the deserted stack, they all showed an expression of watching a good show.
In their eyes.
This means that the ghost inside has officially fought with Lord Heiyuan!
…
"Huh?"
Lin Chen looked at the middle-aged male ghost who took a few steps back and couldn't help showing a hint of surprise.
How could this ghost take his punch so calmly?
The strength is really not weak!
The middle-aged male ghost's arms were shaking, and his face was filled with shock.
What a heavy force!
This kid's improvement is too fast. He used to call me "big brother" in front of him to get close to him, but now he punched him so hard that his arm became numb.
This made him feel dazed for a while.
"It's a good ghost. It can be sold for a good price." Lin Chen suggested.
The aura on his body became more and more terrifying.
Just now it was just pure physical strength, but now he is truly mobilizing the holy power and divine power in his body.
The five elements become one, along with the power of the Eighteen Demon Subduing Palms, all integrated and gathered in the hands.
Lin Chen didn't plan to give this ghost too much time and prepared to solve it quickly.
The middle-aged male ghost's eyelids twitched, and he quickly said, "Wait a minute, don't you recognize me as your big brother?"
Lin Chen was stunned, and all the strength gathered in his hands.
"I don't have any big brothers in the horror world. They are all enemies."
The middle-aged male ghost's mouth twitched.
I know you don't care.
I was just trying to get close to you at the time, but you can't be so direct.
He reached out and wiped his face, revealing his true features.
An extremely handsome face appeared in front of Lin Chen.
His sharp eyebrows, bright eyes and angular face made Lin Chen look very familiar.
It is this face that perfectly matches his unique temperament.
"City Lord?"
Lin Chen widened his eyes, and the energy accumulated in his body finally dissipated. He looked at the middle-aged male ghost in surprise.
"It's me."
"So it really is Big Brother."
Lin Chen was happy and remembered that he once called the city lord "big brother".
"I thought you had grown up not recognizing people."
"How could that be? It's just that we haven't seen each other for a long time. I've already jumped from Ghost King to Tongtian level. I just didn't think of it for a moment."
How long...?
The city lord was speechless.
The span of strength is indeed large, but it is not so long as to be described as long.
It was only a little over two months.
Compared to the hundreds of years he had lived through, it was just the blink of an eye.
However, thinking back to the past, the city lord couldn't help but laugh, with full admiration in his eyes.
"I really didn't expect it to be such a coincidence to meet you here. From what I have learned so far, you are still on Blue Star."
Since it was a familiar ghost, Lin Chen would not attack again and said, "It's just a trick. Brother, what kind of deal do you want to make in the ghost market?"
"Save people."
The city lord still has great trust in Lin Chen. After all, they all have similar goals.
Lin Chen's eyes flashed, and he thought to himself, as expected.
The people kept here are all from the city lord's original world. Lin Chen is not surprised that they come here.
"It's those captive humans, right? I guessed before that those people are related to you." Lin Chen took back the red ball in the ghost king's mouth with a casual move and lifted his restrictions.
"Have you seen it?"
The city lord's expression changed, but before he could say anything, the Ghost King spoke eagerly.
"Who is this?"
Lin Chen looked at the Ghost King, feeling somewhat strange, and couldn't help but ask.
Lin Chen's words also caused the expressions of the city lord and the ghost king to change.
Seeing this, Lin Chen's mind moved, purple light flashed in his eyes, and he activated the pupil technique, forcibly seeing through the Ghost King's disguise. The next moment, Lin Chen's face changed.
"Water Ghost King?"
The ghost king accompanying the city lord was actually the Water Ghost King. This surprised Lin Chen and a sneer appeared on his face.
"City Lord, leave this ghost to me. I will help you rescue those people."
Lin Chen's voice became a little cold.
Although the Water Ghost King is no longer in his eyes, since he is his former enemy, Lin Chen cannot just ignore it. As long as there is a chance, he will definitely get rid of him as soon as possible.
"He was once my subordinate, Chen, can you give me some face?" said the city lord.
The Water Ghost King on the side did not speak and lowered his head silently.
"He has killed people from Blue Star, and more than one." Lin Chen looked at the city lord and said.
“But his memory did not recover at that time because he was affected by the resentment. Now he has recovered his memory with the help of the fragments of the reincarnation platform. He is no longer the same person as before.” The city lord explained.
"But the mistake did happen, and he also offended me." Lin Chen said seriously.
King Mu had also killed people, but because of Mu Yun, Lin Chen let go of his hostility towards King Mu. However, it is impossible to completely ignore King Mu’s past and let him become a member of Blue Star with peace of mind. Until now, he has been placed in a pink sack with nowhere to go.
As for the Water Ghost King, I'm sorry, your daughter never gave her life for me.
It is impossible that just because you killed someone when you were confused, now that you have awakened, all the past events can be forgiven.
"It's true that it happened, but there are also frictions and fights between people, let alone him. Boy Chen, give your elder brother some face and keep him to atone his sins." The city lord advised.
Lin Chen looked at the city lord deeply, then turned his eyes away and looked at the silent Water Ghost King.
After a moment, Lin Chen said, "It is a sin for people to kill people, and there is order that will punish the murderer. If you put down your butcher knife, you can become a Buddha right away. What will other good people think? How will you explain to the dead? Big brother, I will give you face and not kill him, but that's all."
After saying that, Lin Chen turned around and prepared to leave the room.
At this moment, the Water Ghost King, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Chen, wait."
Lin Chen turned around and looked at the Water Ghost King calmly.
"I know that what I have done cannot be repaid. Since I awakened my memory, I feel disgusted with what I did in the past and cannot calm down. My behavior is a sin in your eyes, but in my eyes, it is nothing but pain. I have taken the wrong path. I don't blame anyone but this damn ghost body. You are more useful than me. It is not worth it to sever the friendship between you and His Majesty because of me. There is something I have thought about before, but at that time I was alone and it was meaningless to do it. Now that you are in front of me, it can be regarded as proof of my atonement."
The Water Ghost King saluted respectfully to the city lord, and then the ghost power in his body began to dissipate, and his ghost body became unstable.
He wants to self-destruct.
"Shuisheng." The city lord's face changed and he was about to stop him.
He couldn't let the Water Ghost King, whom he had found with great difficulty, die in front of him.
"Your Majesty! I owe you this. I am not clean! In this life and the past, I have failed you. If there is an afterlife, I will definitely repay you."
The Water Ghost King stopped the city lord, and his arms began to break, turning into the original ghost power that dissipated in the air, and his breath had become extremely weak.
He was not acting, nor was he trying to gain sympathy. In his eyes, he had indeed committed many crimes, and those crimes made him feel disgusted and painful even when he regained his humanity.
And it is even more impossible for a genius like Lin Chen to become estranged from the city lord because of him.
Now is the time for liberation.
However, just when he was completely destroyed.
A force of time enveloped him.
Behind Lin Chen, a long river of time that does not exist in the real world flows.
Lin Chen clenched his hand and slowly reversed it, and the broken body of the Water Ghost King began to reorganize. In just a moment, it was back to normal.
"Didn't I say that? The dispute between you and me will be put aside for the sake of Big Brother. As for the evil you did on Blue Star, it has nothing to do with me. I am a member of Blue Star, but I am not its law enforcer. When there is a chance in the future, let Zhou Geng and the others decide."
After Lin Chen finished speaking, he turned and left the room.
The last two ghosts were not caught, but it was time to go to the ghost laboratory to make a deal.
