Zongman: Time-stop hypnosis, you told me you were a hero

The reward that Yan Mo Ai paid Lin Yi in advance for this commission was an ancient book.

To be more precise... it was a mysterious book called"The Secret of Spells"

……

【Spells】

【Level: Lv20 (C-level)】

【Description: An ancient book that records simple Yin-Yang spells. After reading it, you will gain the skill"Yin-Yang Spell (Lv1)". You can increase the level of Yin-Yang Spells by reading it repeatedly, up to Lv5.】

……

This is a prop book that can learn"skills" after reading, similar to the magic book in the West.

The way it provides skills is not a simple and crude way to obtain them directly, but it requires learning the"knowledge" in the book and applying it.

In other words, it is more like a textbook than a simple prop.

Although"The Brief Guide to Spells" is very troublesome to use, it does not seem to be as good as the"Blessing of the Forgotten River" directly given by Yan Mo Ai

, but the advantage is that the"Yin and Yang Spells" learned from this book have one more way to upgrade.

As long as Lin Yi continues to study"The Brief Guide to Spells", he can upgrade his skills to the maximum level without consuming karma crystals!

It has been almost a week since he got this book from Yan Mo Ai.

Lin Yi also happened to learn two of the spells, and his skill level was raised to Lv2.

……

【Yin and Yang Spells】

【Level: Lv2/5 (C-level)】

【Description: A simple spell with almost no threshold for the caster. Each level up unlocks a new skill.】

【Casting spells consumes 10 (-1 per level) mana points, and increases damage and effect based on intelligence attributes.】

【Upgrade: To upgrade to Lv3, you need to consume"Karma Crystal (Small)" x1】

【Lv1-"Unknown Fire" (Unlocked)】

【Lv2-"Sickle Wind" (Unlocked)】

【Lv3: Unlock"Night Cry""】

【Lv4: Unlock"Wooden Lock""】

【Lv5: Unlock"Hundred Eyes Thunder""】

……

The Kamaitachi is a legendary wind demon that often appears in the form of a whirlwind and cuts human skin with its sickle-like claws.

""Sickle Wind" does not summon a real sickle-weasel, but a spell that swings out sharp wind blades.

The conditions for casting the spell are very simple, and it can be successfully released by swinging the limbs and consuming magic power.

The disadvantage is that it cannot be fired when time is stopped - because except for Lin Yi, even the air is still and cannot flow during the time stop.

However, he can accumulate a bunch of stagnant wind blades and instantly burst out with amazing lethality.

This is another tactic.

Facing the vines brought by"Nina", Lin Yi did not intend to take it head-on.

The entire sanatorium is the territory of this doll spirit, and fighting a war of attrition is seeking death.

The prompt for the brave mission is already very clear, that is to find its body and destroy it directly!

Otherwise, facing an existence like a groundbound spirit, there is no chance of winning at all

"Ah!!!"

Lin Yi had just finished dealing with the vines on his side when he heard the scream of a girl next to him. Jianzi hurriedly stood up and was about to leave with him, but her foot seemed to be tripped and she suddenly stumbled to the ground.

Looking down, she found that her small ankles wrapped in over-the-knee socks were entangled by dark green vines.

Just like a water ghost pulling people into the water when drowning, it held Jianzi tightly and would not let go!

It was just a short delay of a few seconds, and more and more vines swam over from the ground like poisonous snakes, and were about to climb all over the girl's body!

"Save me!——"

""Here we go."

Without waiting for her to call for help a second time, Lin Yi had already lent a helping hand.

He first snapped his fingers quickly, and with a crisp"pop" sound, a large piece of fire exploded, burning the approaching circle of vines into ashes!

——Yin-Yang Curse: Shiranui!

Although it is not enough to destroy all the vines, it can buy a lot of time!

"If you can still stand up, follow me."

"OK...OK……"

Although her legs were a little weak, in order to avoid being caught up by the vines behind her, Jianzi still followed Lin Yi with a panicked look on her face.

At this moment, she felt like crying but had no tears. It was agreed that she was just going to do a simple"field work"?

This kind of weird thing is more terrifying than encountering an evil ghost!

At least the evil ghost will try it first, and will not show its health bar directly when it comes up...

At this moment, Yotsuya Jianzi has deeply realized that she is probably on a pirate ship.

Although from the various magical methods just now, Lin Yi is indeed a"psychic" with supernatural powers

, but following him... doesn't seem to be much safer!

Just when Jianzi was worried about her work environment.

She had followed Lin Yi's footsteps and returned to the inside of the sanatorium.

This huge building has 4 floors. It is really difficult to find the real body of"Nina" in a short time.

"In the original work, the window of the room where the doll is located overlooks the entrance to the sanatorium."

"And you can see far away……"

"This height, it must be either three or four floors, and the room is on the right side of the corridor!"

Based on his memory of the original plot, Lin Yi's mind worked rapidly and he made a quick inference.

"Go upstairs!"

At some point, the walls and floor of the sanatorium became mottled and dilapidated, and everywhere was filled with a dilapidated atmosphere.

There was no soil for vines to grow here, but when the two rushed into the stairwell, they were blocked by the"staff".

"Those people... turned into monsters!"

Jianzi held up a flashlight, and the beam of light shone on a caregiver, revealing her face wrapped in vines.

Her whole body was constantly wriggling, as if the body under the white caregiver uniform was not flesh and blood, but limbs made of roots!

"It's a common plot in horror movies, isn't it?"

Lin Yi was not too surprised. Even if he didn't know the plot, he could tell that there was something wrong with these strangely appearing staff.

The invisible wind blade cut the attacking caregiver in half, and the upper and lower parts of the body fell to the ground one after another.

No blood oozed out from the broken body, but slender branches continued to grow thick and strong, supporting the caregiver's body to"stand up" again!

Like"Nina", they are monsters that can regenerate repeatedly!

"Are you earthworms?……"

Even Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little tricky at this moment.

He snapped his fingers again, and the area within his field of vision was instantly covered by flames.

Monsters made of vines are naturally weak to fire, and this attack is more effective than the"Sickle Weasel Wind" just now!

After dealing with the enemies blocking his way, Lin Yi directly crossed the flames and rushed to the second floor.

Needless to say, Jian Zi also followed with a flashlight in one hand and a wooden sword in the other, for fear of being left behind by him.

Perhaps they had been alarmed, and in the stairwell on the third floor, more white-clothed caregivers blocked the way upstairs.

"A lot of……"

Seeing the enemies almost occupying the corridor, Jianzi couldn't help but cry out.

But before she could finish, Lin Yi's figure suddenly flashed, directly passed the"human wall" formed by the nurses, and came behind them.

The next moment, the wind blades and flames frozen in time burst out instantly, and the smell of coke suddenly filled the floor.

"Fortunately, it's not the smell of barbecue."

Lin Yi muttered, gave Jianzi a look, and signaled her to keep up.

After several encounters, Jianzi gradually realized that her boss... seemed a little fierce!

"No wonder ordinary ghosts avoid him.……"

The girl became bolder and kicked away the burning remains of the nurse, and followed him upstairs in small steps.

The power on the fourth floor had been completely cut off, and it was pitch black.

The sky outside the window was covered with lead-gray clouds and thick fog.

But there was no nurse on this floor to stop them, and the two of them easily came to the corridor.

Lin Yi knew that this was because he would directly confront"Nina"

"Come out."

He whispered

"Even if you hide, I will find you soon."

A sharp laugh came from behind, accompanied by the resentful words of"Nina".

"Why do you come to disturb me?"

"I could have waited here quietly.……"

"Why do you have to ruin this dream?’！"

"In that case... let this sister accompany me.……"

Lin Yi was startled and turned around suddenly.

Unbeknownst to him, the familiar figure of a blonde girl appeared beside Jianzi, who had been following him.

However, this time,"Nina" had completely lost the cuteness she had when they first met.

Instead, there were twisted vines extending from her limbs.

These vines that looked like arms tightly strangled Jianzi's delicate and slender neck, almost making her breathless.

"……Let's talk it over nicely."

Seeing that Jian Zi was taken hostage, Lin Yi did not act rashly and said

"As long as you can let her go, we can leave here immediately and not bother you anymore.

Seeing Lin Yi give in, Nina laughed a sharp and strange laugh.

"Hehe...it's too late"

"If she is really that important to you... Big brother, you can come and accompany me too."

"Otherwise...I will strangle this sister to death and make her into a doll like those guys."

"Those guys" should be referring to the nursing home nurses who suddenly appeared.

When she thought about her body being replaced by vines, she was suddenly overwhelmed by fear. She kept twisting her body, trying to struggle away.

However, how could an ordinary high school girl escape the control of the monster with her strength?

Seeing Lin Yi's silence, the blonde girl's tone began to become impatient.

"Are you going to do the same as 'Dad' and abandon this sister and go away on your own?"

"Haha...they are all damned guys!"

"That's not the case.

Suddenly, Lin Yi said

"I'm just thinking……"

"I'm procrastinating to wait for the CD"

"what are you waiting for?"

"Waiting to die?"

The blonde girl was stunned when she heard this, and then she saw the man in front of her disappear in an instant.

From a room not far away, she heard a power fluctuation that frightened her - her body... was found.

"No!!!!!"
