Chapter 141 Fifty-six. Temporary Safety

   There is no doubt that the beak mask figure belongs to the human camp, and it is the part that is almost radical. At least Haders or the unidentified apprentice investigators and seekers who saw Anna would not want to destroy her for the first time.

   As for her identity, she couldn't tell, she didn't have a psychic gun, maybe she wasn't an exorcist, and the night watchman wouldn't break into here alone.

   Is it an investigator?

  Unfortunately, she is not Hades or a seeker, otherwise Lu Li could stop her and ask some questions.

   "She's pretty good." Anna suddenly spoke with undisguised admiration in her tone.

  Lu Li looked sideways, silently watching the ghost girl praise the bird-beak mask figure who almost killed her.

   "Why do you look at me like that, although there was a little misunderstanding and a little conflict... but you see that she has helped us a lot, right?" Anna, who has a strange brain circuit, said with her fingers crossed. "She took away the invitation from the things in the swamp, which means that she went to the appointment instead of us, and the price was only that she wanted to destroy me..."

  Lu Li Jing watched Anna chattering endlessly, and sighed in a seemingly insignificant way.

   He saw that Anna was emotionally wrong.

   "Isn't it normal for an exorcist to want to destroy a ghost? It's nothing, it's nothing..."

  Anna's voice became smaller and smaller, her head lowered, and after a moment of dullness, intermittent sad whispers sounded.

   "Are ghosts really dangerous...why do ordinary people fear us, and exorcists want to destroy us..."

"perhaps."

   Lu Li's answer made Anna suddenly raise her head.

  Although she knew that Lu Li had been so direct to the point of being a venomous tongue, she would still feel very uncomfortable when Lu Li said that, as if he had been punched in the chest, sore and numb, even if he was attacked by a bird's beak mask figure.

   Then, Anna raised her head and saw Lu Li staring at the side with a strange look.

   Anna, who was easily distracted, looked at it subconsciously and found that Lu Li was only staring at the legs of a wooden table.

   "...?" Anna tilted her head quietly.

  Lu Li watched the table legs grow dense tentacles, squirming like seaweed, and said again: "But it's not important."

   "You should have heard that the biggest difference between us and the beast is intelligence. But there is another point, which is complex emotions."

   The tentacles growing out of the table legs gradually dissipated like a bubble. Lu Li retracted his gaze and looked at Anna who was stunned: "What humans fear is not ghosts, but the unknown."

   "Unknown..." Anna murmured the word subconsciously.

"Humans are usually very resistant and wary of unfamiliar things, especially dangerous things, which cannot be avoided. Even between people. Tigers will be killed when they appear near humans, and sharks will be killed when they appear near humans. Some people are killed near fishing boats, some for profit, some simply because of their own danger."

  Anna gradually began to not understand Lu Li's words. He was always like this, saying things that he didn't understand, but seemed important and philosophical.

   seems to be developing himself to think and live independently.

  Fortunately, Lu Li often points at the end to let Anna understand what Lu Li wants to convey: "Most of them want to hurt you and nothing else, just because you might hurt them."

   "So, prove yourself harmless, or make yourself strong enough."

   After speaking these words, Lu Li looked away again, this time falling into the bonfire.

   The flames in the fire formed a ring, forming a fiery red beast with vertical pupils. Anna, who was also sitting in front of the fire, was indifferent to this scene.

   This vertical pupil stared at Lu Li coldly for a few seconds, then dissipated and disappeared.

Does    become stronger...

   Anna murmured in her heart.

  Yeah...As long as you get stronger, you can ignore those who want to hurt yourself. As long as you become stronger, you can help Lu Li and stand in front of him to block all troubles for him...

   The translucent fist in her sleeve gradually clenched, and Anna wanted to shout, "I'm not weak anymore, Lu Li!"

   But it is difficult to speak because of shame.

   "Then it's up to you."

   Lu Li's voice suddenly remembered, and Anna was startled: "Eh? I... me? Uh... um..."

   She was embarrassed and a little bit of joy at the same time. What, when will this guy talk nice and coax people.

   Twisted and raised his eyes to take a peek at Lu Li, and found that this guy started to look at the bed in the corner with a similar focus.

  In Anna's perspective, there is only a mess of the victim's clothes piled up.

   In Lu Li's eyes, two shirts stood up from the pile of clothes, waving their sleeves and smashing at each other, as if an invisible existence was wearing them to fight.

  This trip to Shadow Town made Lu Li's contact with the psychic gun to a desperate level.

   In Belfast, under the control of Lu Li, the direct contact time with the psychic gun did not exceed ten seconds.

   But only two evil spirit rituals encountered in Shadow Town made Lu Li consume at least 30 seconds, and it also took about 30 seconds after walking into the swamp.

   In just one day, Lu Li was in direct contact with the psychic gun for more than a minute.

   Normal, hallucinatory, mad.

Among the three stages of    sanity, Lu Li is already in the yellow stage.

   At this time, only Lu Li could observe the endless hallucinations.

  The only good news is that the negative effects of the psychic gun are not irreversible as Hades said, and they fall into the abyss irreparably.

  Although Sanity regenerates very slowly.

   In any case, the psychic gun and other congeners are temporarily unavailable.

   That's why Lu Li said that the next step is to rely on Anna.

  Anna floated out of the wooden house and glanced at the sky, then returned to the fire and muttered, "It's as dark as night outside, and I don't know how long it will stop."

   "Has there been such a storm a few years ago?" Lu Li asked her.

  Ana tilted her head and thought for a while: "Yes, but it's not as terrifying as it is now, like the end of the world..."

   The storm is coming from the east, which is the direction of Belfast. If this dark cloud is big enough, perhaps Belfast is in the same darkness at the moment.

  It seems that the city is gradually becoming unsafe...

  The storm will not dissipate for a while, Lu Li plans to use the wooden house as a shelter for the time being and rest until the storm subsides.

Of course   Anna would not object, and stood up and said that she was guarding.

The idea of ​​   becoming stronger and protecting Lu Li took root in her heart.

  Lu Li nodded and said nothing. Putting the still wet and hot woolen coat under his body, he curled up by the fire and lay down.

   turned his back to Anna.

   has nothing to do with trust - it's just that someone is watching Lu Li and can't rest.

"Are you asleep?"

   After a while, Anna whispered tentatively.

"No."

   "Thinking about something?"

"Um."

   I hope those things in the swamp can be fooled by this.

   Lu Li thought.

   In the quiet and peaceful warm wooden house, his breathing gradually became peaceful.
