Chapter 171 Possessed by Evil
Chapter 171 Possessed by Evil
Although it was unclear what had happened, Xinghai and Huan'er had vanished into thin air without any warning!
This sudden change was baffling, but Ji Lin knew that they had each left the world of the Distant View Hotel.
Elise once said, "In other lands, one can alter some scenes from the past."
Just now, Ji Lin patted each of them on the back. It should be that the power of the sheep talisman in Ji Lin's body and the other world caused some changes, allowing Xinghai and Huan'er to leave the surface world they were in at that time.
Ji Lin stopped thinking about it; at least for the time being, Jack would no longer pose a threat to them.
At this moment, Jack still stood expressionless in front of Ji Lin, seemingly calm and composed. However, only he knew in his heart that Ji Lin's fierce attack had already dealt him a heavy blow.
At this moment, Jack's body was already overburdened and could no longer withstand the pressure of the intense battle.
Even so, the raging fire in Jack's heart did not diminish in the slightest. He wished he could tear Ji Lin to pieces and grind his bones to ashes immediately!
The reason is simple: since Jack became the demon's agent by chance, he has never encountered such a troublesome and difficult opponent as Ji Lin.
Speaking of this so-called "demon", it is actually just a relatively powerful high-level evil spirit.
It proclaimed itself a "demon" purely to scare people, and Jack's becoming the agent of this evil spirit was entirely due to a chance encounter.
As an agent, Jack's duty is to assist the evil spirit in gathering more souls for it to devour.
Correspondingly, the evil spirit will grant Jack a portion of its own power to use.
As for the red-faced demon and the sinister-looking old woman in black, they were two henchmen that Jack had accidentally subdued with the help of evil spirits.
Jack had always let the red-faced demon and the black old woman do as they pleased, allowing them to collect human souls on their own without ever interfering.
His only concern was whether the two evil spirits could deliver the required amount of souls on time.
However, no one expected that during this operation, these two evil spirits, who usually acted arrogantly, would run into Ji Lin, a tough nut to crack.
When Ji Lin revealed the Gatling gun, which was formed from merit and had fierce firepower, the red-faced demon and the black-haired old woman immediately felt that they were in great danger. They knew that if they did not try to seek help, they would probably lose their lives today.
So, relying on their special connection with Jack, they did everything in their power to send him a distress signal.
Soon after, Jack rushed to the scene.
Right now, he had only one thought in his mind—to completely eliminate Ji Lin in this alien land as soon as possible!
Such intense and urgent killing intent caused Jack's mind to instantly become chaotic, completely losing the ability to think rationally.
In this frenzied state, Jack unhesitatingly unleashed his ultimate technique—possession by evil spirits.
Once activated, this skill summons the evil spirits that grant Jack power to come and assist him.
However, everything comes at a price, and this skill also has a fatal flaw: after it is used, the user's soul will be mercilessly devoured by evil spirits, resulting in a significant reduction in their lifespan, almost to the point of exhaustion.
Therefore, since Jack acquired that mysterious and powerful evil spirit power, he has never used this skill.
In fact, the most crucial reason for this is that Jack has never encountered a truly powerful opponent who could make him go all out.
Just as Ji Lin was about to launch a fierce attack on Jack, an unexpected scene suddenly unfolded—a petite little girl suddenly appeared in mid-air behind Jack without warning!
In an instant, the little girl slowly opened her eyes. The moment she opened her eyes, a surging, sinister, and terrifying evil energy spread rapidly in all directions like a flood bursting its banks.
Faced with such a sudden change, Ji Lin had no time to take any effective countermeasures before he was struck solidly by the fierce evil energy and fell rapidly backward like a kite with a broken string.
Fortunately, Ji Lin was agile and quick-witted.
He hurriedly adjusted his posture in mid-air, and at the same time, the weapon he had been holding tightly in his hand disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, with a soft "whoosh," the weapon transformed into a pair of huge and magnificent wings behind him, flapping powerfully and steadily lifting Ji Lin into the air.
However, after Ji Lin finally regained his balance, he looked again and found that the little girl who had appeared behind Jack had disappeared.
Instead, Jack's face was extremely gloomy, as if it could drip water.
At this moment, Jack was staring intently at Ji Lin in the void with a hostile and hateful gaze, as if he might launch an even more ferocious attack at any moment.
"My name is Alessa, and I accept your soul." With these cold and threatening words, Ji Lin in the air stared at Jack in astonishment.
He never expected that Jack would say such a name—Alessa!
You should know that this name is legendary in the horror world; he's the ultimate boss from Silent Hill!
At this moment, Ji Lin felt that the whole plot was becoming more and more unpredictable and chaotic.
Just as Ji Lin was still in shock, he saw Alessa suddenly leap into the air and instantly soar into the sky.
She opened her arms, chanting incantations, and then an incredibly powerful force surged from her hands, hurtling straight toward Ji Lin.
It must be admitted that Alessa truly deserves to be called the best among evil spirits. The power of her attack was astonishing, and the energy fluctuations it emitted far exceeded any evil spirit Ji Lin had encountered before.
Faced with such a fierce attack, Ji Lin dared not be careless in the slightest. He tried his best to dodge left and right in the air, attempting to avoid this fatal blow.
However, Alessa's attack speed was too fast, like a sudden storm that left people overwhelmed.
Despite Ji Lin's best efforts, he ultimately failed to completely evade the opponent's attack.
With a loud "bang," the wings that Ji Lin had conjured from his merits were unfortunately struck.
The immense impact caused Ji Lin to lose his balance, and his body plummeted straight down like a kite with a broken string.
Ji Lin closed his eyes tightly, inwardly groaning in despair.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an unfamiliar scene.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that this was the very banquet hall where he had entered the real world from the Yaowang Hotel! Everything around him was so familiar, but Ji Lin had no time to pay attention to any of that at the moment.
Before he could react, another attack from Alessa followed.
As the beam of light, brimming with boundless killing intent, was about to strike his counterpart in the surreal world of the Hotel of Reveries, Ji Lin's heart pounded. He lunged forward, shielding his counterpart in the surreal world of the Hotel of Reveries...
