Mysterious Resurrection: Treacherous Pocket Watch

Chapter 178 An Alternative Restart

Facing the stone carvings in this temple.

The black cat is ready to destroy it.

But the moment the paw fell, it was shocked to find that it had returned to the gate of the temple.

That's right, it's still where it was just now.

And the ghost boy's body is also here.

"Meow……"

The black cat showed a trace of human puzzlement.

Sensing that the things in this ghostly creature are somewhat incomprehensible, and the familiar sense of threat is getting stronger and stronger, it still plans to leave as soon as possible.

"Stay, stay..."

A vague voice came from the temple.

The black cat immediately raised its head and looked over.

I saw a child about five or six years old walking out of the temple with an innocent but hideous smile.

Looking down at the corpse blocking the door, the child tilted his head and kicked aside the corpse with the same facial features as his own, but the smile on his face grew wider.

"what's the situation……"

Lin Fan rubbed his eyes, convinced that he saw two ghost boys.

One was killed by a black cat just now, and the blood was still hot at this time, while the other walked out of the temple without changing his face, and still thought his corpse was in the way.

This weird unfolding reminded Lin Fan of Grandma Tian in "Republic of China F7".

The ghost controlled by this grandma can keep coming back from the past. It is a truly unkillable alien, and its combat effectiveness is very terrifying.

Even Xiao Yang in the later stage defeated Grandma Tian with the help of Gui Tong. One can imagine that this ability is terrifying.

"It seems to be a little different."

"I always feel like a ghost...now it's better to call it a ghost boy. The supernatural aura on the ghost boy has changed. The previous ghost boy didn't have any ghostly aura, and he felt like an 'ordinary person'."

Relying on the relationship with the ghost, Lin Fan was keenly aware of a slight change in it.

Grandma Tian's "the world is another self" comes from the past, and once the super self dies, then this ability will be self-defeating.

And the change of the ghost boy in front of him is from an "ordinary person" to a "ghost" tainted with supernatural aura. This has nothing to do with the past, but more like a different kind of restart.

Yes, it's a restart!
However, it is obviously different from a simple restart. While restarting itself, it also affects certain factors.

Let's wait and see for now, because the ghost species that has been restarted once, still can't stop the black cat... Lin Fan is calm and pays attention to the temple all the time.

The scene just now happened again.

The ghost boy approached the black cat as if he was willing to die, and was slapped to death with a paw, and the body rolled to the side.

This time, the black cat did not leave easily, but carefully crushed the corpse of the ghost boy to prevent the other party from "uncovering the coffin and rising up" again.

It wasn't until the two identical bodies turned into a pile of dust that the faces could not be distinguished, and then the black cat ran into the temple, eager to smash the stone carvings inside.

again.

The black cat returned to the gate of the temple.

And out of the temple came a figure of a child again, staring at the two unidentified "balls of meat" at the door, the rough and simple cloth was now stained with a faint blood color, and there was still a gap before it was fully dyed.

"I understand!"

Looking at the ghost boy who appeared for the third time, Lin Fan couldn't help jumping up, with an uncontrollable excitement on his face.

He finally figured out what is special about the restart of the ghost boy he controlled.

It seems meaningless to send him to death again and again, but every time the ghost boy returns, he is constantly absorbing the supernatural power of the last death, slowly eroding the essence of the attacker.

Rather than saying that this is similar to Grandma Wada's past version of "The World Alternates Me", it is better to say that she is borrowing strength from her future self.

This also means that the "eye consciousness" contained in the second ghost species has the same function, and both use overdrawing something in exchange for future supernatural power.

At first glance.

This reboot is not as good as other reboots.

But if you study it carefully, you will definitely find that this kind of restart is terrible.

After all, the constant restarts mean that the attacker's supernatural power will become weaker and weaker, and he will become more and more terrifying, forming a tug of war.

"Unfortunately, this particularity can only be realized within the scope of the temple. When encountering higher-level ghosts, or existences that cannot be trapped, it is tantamount to losing its effect." Lin Fan shook his head, feeling that there was a fly in the ointment.

He is also a little worried. Although this level of restarting is not as expensive as restarting itself, it will definitely not restart infinitely.

Just as Lin Fan was thinking for a moment.

At this time, the temple has become a sea of ​​corpses.

The black cat killed the ghost boy again and again, and the ghost boy walked out of the temple again and again, and the bloody clothes on his body were slowly mending.

But in a short period of time, an unknown number of identical corpses lay at the gate of the temple. They were stacked together, and even raised a hill.

"Meow!"

Killed the ghost boy again.

But this time it was not as easy as before.

The black cat's abdomen was cut open with a deep bone wound, and the ghost boy who caused all this was still intact, wearing a dark red cloth, with his head dropped to one side, and a wicked smile on his face.

"You can't get out of here."

There was a hint of humor in the words.

The ghost boy with calm eyes walked out of the temple slowly. The bloody clothes on his body were so red and black that he was clearly different from ordinary red-clothed ghosts.

On the other hand, on the side of the black cat, its aura has fallen into an incomparably low trough, and it is undoubtedly too weak compared to its incomprehensible appearance before.

This also exposed the biggest shortcoming of the black cat. Although it has natural advantages in terms of specificity and its own essence, it cannot handle restarts.

Presumably the chief tattoo artist at the time also took advantage of the fact that he could restart in the tattoo parlor, and trapped the black cat.

"I didn't expect that the ghost boy could be so powerful through repeated restarts." Lin Fan sighed, even if he was sitting in the carriage, he could still feel how terrifying the ghost boy was at this time.

Bloody red to black.

This seems to symbolize going to the next level.

The red-stained blood suit is the most easily distinguishable feature between the red-clothed ghost and the complete jigsaw ghost.

Therefore, the changes in the blood clothes also explained a lot of things, from the shallow to the deep, and from the deep to the shallow, all of them were particular.

"Kill me."

Guitong casually walked on the ocean of his corpses, tilted his head, looked at the tired black cat and said, "I'm not your opponent yet, but I know that next time I should be able to finish you."

It seemed that he heard the mockery in the ghost boy's words.

The black cat, which was about to retreat, backed away, showing its sharp fangs like a bluff, and pounced on the ghost boy not far away.

Through restarting, the ghost boy, both in voice and in character, was getting closer and closer to Lin Fan. He closed his eyes and stood where he was, waiting for the black cat to kill him.

Soon, everything went dark.

when turned on again.

Guitong lowered his head, looked at the black bloody clothes on his body and said thoughtfully: "It seems not as good as the real top-level red clothes, but it's enough..."

"Meow!"

Looking at the children slowly approaching him.

The black cat finally showed a fearful expression, and kept backing away, leaning against the broken wall behind it, no matter what, it couldn't take another step back.

"It's a pity that once you leave, the changes in me will disappear. I really feel a little bit reluctant."

Grabbing the black cat who was powerless to resist, Guitong wrinkled his face, and his pale features seemed a little aggrieved.

It looked ahead sadly, as if it saw someone outside through this ghostly creature, and then, with a slight force on its arm, it unscrewed a black cat's head.

At this point, the temple behind him disappeared.
