Chapter 76: Joint Operation (2)
The joint attack wasn't over yet.
A holy light descended just as three bullets pierced the phantom's torso, enveloping the phantom's entire body.
The holy light, fire plus silver bullets hit the vital areas.
The screams echoed through the interior of the building.
In the blink of an eye, all that was left was a charred scrap of white cloth.
All of this was done by the combined efforts of Cass, Coslin and Sophia, and Han Dong didn't make any moves, because Han Dong felt that these attacks were enough, and there was a hint of something wrong.
During the battle, Han Dong always felt that in some dark corner, someone was spying on his group.
"Is it dead?"
"No, something is still secretly watching us, so be careful." Once Han Dong said this, everyone continued to maintain a state of being alert.
Cass, who was standing alone in the corridor on the second floor, quickly took off his silver armor that was still on fire and put it back on after quickly extinguishing the flames.
It had been a real scare just now, and if they hadn't anticipated the opponent's plant properties in advance and thus prepared the "Kerosene Bomb", the consequences would have been disastrous.
While Cass was putting his armor back on, he caught a glimpse of where Sophia was, there was a slender plant vine growing between the floors.
"Fia! The ground!"
The plants instantly went wild as Cass shouted out the words.
Apparently, the 'thing' hidden in this building possessed a sense of sound.
After the situation where the ghost was killed just now, it was determined that Sophia was the greatest threat and she must be eliminated first.
Sophia was located between Coslin and Han Dong, two meters away from both of them.
But when faced with the plant that sprouted from between the floors, Coslin reacted extremely quickly.
Put away the gun and pull out the holy water.
Bang!
A bottle of holy water was thrown over.
Who knew that the holy water had no effect at all when splashed on these plants?
Indirectly, it meant that these manipulated plants weren't mixed with evil attributes, they were just ordinary manipulated plants.
It also meant that Sophia's holy light spell wouldn't work on these plants, with her ability, she couldn't break free of the vines.
There is even less likely to be the case with throwing kerosene bombs, as unlike Cass in armor, the flames would severely burn Sophia.
Cass wouldn't be able to make it from this distance.
Crunch!
The wildly growing plant vines had wrapped around Sophia's feet.
Even if she took out a small, well-made dagger and sliced through a few of the vines, it would be completely useless, the separated vines would still continue to grow.
Before she knew it, Sophia had been skillfully 'tied' by these rattan strips, unable to move.
At the same time, a white cloth had appeared between the floors, signaling the imminent appearance of the ghost! The situation was incredibly dangerous.
In a situation where the three members of the squad were panicking and couldn't think of a way out.
Han Dong watched the scene in silence, his mind had simulated multiple rescue methods, but all of them could potentially harm Sophia.
There was only one way to be unharmed.
-------------------------------
In a prison cell.
The woman in red who stood facing the wall suddenly disappeared.
Miss Chen Li, please.
A distinctive evil aura appeared in the hall area.
Whoosh!
The blade shadows overlapped, slicing precisely through the vines wrapped around Sophia's body.
Beneath the black hair, a pair of creepy red eyes met Sophia's gaze, frightening the latter into retreating, right out of the range of the plant restraints.
Immediately following, the red-clad woman's gaze turned to the ground.
Pale and wrapped with evil aura, her arm quickly extended and grabbed the strange white cloth on the ground.
Relying on brute force, she yanked the entire 'ghost' out.
What followed was a series of frenzied and unorganized knife techniques.
The kitchen knives with an evil aura frantically sliced through the phantom's body, and the tentacle-like plant branches were all chopped, Chen Li relied on her own strength to kill the phantom.
Moreover, like Han Dong, Chen Li was unaffected by the contamination.
Staring at the second dead apparition, Han Dong realized something, the source of pollution hidden in the Baker mansion was secretly manipulating the apparition.
"Hurry to the backyard, since nightfall can reveal the mansion's original appearance, maybe the backyard has recovered as well!"
As Han Dong shouted out the words.
Other than Cass making a move, both Coslin and Sophia were a bit confused.
Staring at the terrifying woman in red with a kitchen knife and messy black hair, they were slightly scared as they were not quite sure of her origin.
Cass was busy explaining, "This is what I told you about before, the powerful summoner of friend Andeva! Hurry, Andeva is right.
Since the others can manipulate ordinary plants, there's a greater chance that the original is in the backyard!"
"Okay."
The rescued Sophia slowly calmed down and looked away from the woman in red to Han Dong, biting her lip slightly and nodding her head in thanks.
The four of them assembled and prepared to leave through the gate to the backyard.
When suddenly, boom!
With a loud bang, the heavy wooden door of the mansion slammed shut and a large number of plants and vines sprouted from between the cracks, reinforcing the door.
At the same time, another apparition appeared to show itself in the corner of the hall.
As the full team prepared for battle, Cass looked angry.
The reason for the anger was because the other party directly attacked the weak member in the team.
If it weren't for Han Dong's ability, Fia would have been seriously injured.
Cass resolutely pulled out a kerosene bomb and threw it hard on the door.
When the fire had spread and burned some of the plants on the gate, Cass focused his power on his legs and left arm.
Center of Gravity went lower.
"Brutal Punch" + "Shield Slam".
Only a loud bang was heard.
Wood splinters and charred plant vines splashed everywhere.
The fact that Cass was able to force his way through a three-meter-high gate with just his own strength showed how strong his body was.
Thus, the squad managed to leave the mansion and head straight for the backyard.
The guess was right indeed.
In the center of the originally overgrown backyard, there was an additional giant sycamore tree, its size was so large that it even occupied the entire backyard, with a portion of the trunk connecting it to the mansion.
At the base of the giant number, a small tree hole existed that could be entered by a single person.
In order to root out the ghosts hovering in the Baker mansion, it seemed that one needed to go deep inside the tree hole and kill the true contamination itself.
Bang!
Coslin directly grabbed a kerosene bomb and threw it over, wanting to directly burn the tree with a single fire.
Naturally, things wouldn't be that simple, the flames could only burn off the shallow bark, unable to spread across the surface of the tree, and soon extinguished themselves.
The white ghost had drifted out from the entrance of the mansion, did not give the crowd much time to think.
A quick decision had to be made.
"Friend Andeva, leave the rest to us!
The three of us have worked together many times, and we have currently determined that the other party's original body is within this tree, so we'll go deeper into it, you'll stay outside to break off and clear out the ghosts that are chasing us."
Since Han Dong's summon was able to deal with the ghosts, he was left to break back.
With Fia's holy light empowering him, Cass was confident that he could defeat the source of the infection inside, and then Coslin would light a fire inside and burn down the strange tree completely.
"Alright, you guys be careful."
"Yeah, don't worry! The other side is just one more pollution attribute, and in terms of difficulty, it's not even comparable to what's in the [Destiny Space]."
Cass' three people quickly entered the tree cave.
Han Dong and Miss Chen Li stood in place, looking directly at the apparition floating in front of them, unmoved.
"Do you want me to do it?" Chen Li asked.
"No, I'll just do it myself."
The apparition just floated in front of Han Dong.
Allowing the ghost to stretch out its soft tree root fingers to touch Han Dong's body, or scream in terror, or remove the white cloth to reveal a disgusting face full of eyes.
Han Dong was completely unmoved, shrugging his shoulders helplessly.
Snap!
Han Dong reached out and grabbed onto the female apparition's head.
A thick, spotted tentacle quickly penetrated deep into the inside of the skull.
Grrrrr! It seemed to be absorbing the other's 'brain essence'.
But this time was a little different, not only was its energy that was being absorbed, it seemed to be carrying a little memory as well as cell essence.
