"Big brother, why are you still holding it?"
Zhou Qingyang's face turned pale with fear.
That terrifying eyeball, with bloodshot veins wrapping around Su Chen's wrist like octopus tentacles, was enough to send shivers down anyone's spine.
Yet, Su Chen didn't just crush the eyeball; he carefully cradled it in his hand.
"It probably doesn't realize yet that littering can be fatal, especially in the Horror World," Su Chen grinned, revealing his pearly whites.
With this eyeball, Su Chen could even backtrack to find its owner.
But first, he needed to find Mundo.
Su Chen took out a coffin nail and drove it into the eyeball.
The eyeball, which had been struggling just moments before, instantly ceased all movement, limp in Su Chen's palm.
"Still, we need to interrupt its peering," Su Chen said.
The eyeball, now in a state of false death, posed no threat.
Its owner wouldn't notice anything wrong and would only assume Su Chen had crushed it.
As Su Chen prepared to leave the room, he noticed Zhou Qingyang trembling all over.
"Something's wrong outside the door," Zhou Qingyang pointed ahead, pale and shivering slightly.
Su Chen immediately raised his trident lance, with ghostly shadows lurking around, his eyes glowing with a fierce red light.
"Could it be that after suppressing the eyeball, its owner went berserk?" A bead of sweat as big as a soybean dripped from Su Chen's forehead.
The white mist outside the door churned, and a loud rustling sound could be heard.
Something was rapidly approaching.
The temperature in the room also began to drop.
Su Chen pulled Zhou Qingyang backward.
Suddenly, a dark shadow lunged out from the white mist.
The shadow plunged toward Su Chen at an extremely fast speed.
The moment Su Chen's eyes narrowed in surprise, a look of delight flashed across his face.
"Gan Jiang!"
"Big brother! I finally found you!"
It was Gan Jiang, who threw himself at Su Chen and groped around his upper torso.
Only after confirming that Su Chen was unharmed did Gan Jiang relax.
Big brother couldn't be hurt; otherwise, who would pay back his debts?
Zhou Qingyang's eyes widened, and she was completely stunned.
The scene before her, like an old friend reunion, was heartwarming.
Yet, what had lunged at Su Chen was a grotesque mummified corpse, resembling a mummy.
"Human?" Zhou Qingyang swallowed hard.
Gan Jiang shook his head.
"Ghost?"
Gan Jiang nodded.
"Thanks," Zhou Qingyang hid behind Su Chen.
Su Chen rubbed his nose and said, "It's just a friendly ghost, don't worry."
Seeing Zhou Qingyang's puzzled look, Su Chen explained again, "Not all ghosts in the Horror World are incredibly ferocious.
"Many of them possess simple intelligence and don't rely solely on their instincts of hatred."
"Gan Jiang is one of those ghosts, so we can communicate and even become friends."
"I have a neighborhood in the Horror World, and most of the ghosts there have their own thoughts."
This was completely different from the ghosts people imagined deep in their hearts—ferocious, hateful, acting purely on instinct, devoid of any wisdom. Those were the spirits of the supernatural.
Such ghosts existed in the Horror World, and there were quite a few, like the downstairs ghost in Building 3 or the scapegoat ghost.
But there were also many ghosts with intelligence and even some fragments of their past memories.
These ghosts could be communicated with, as long as you had the qualification and ability to do so.
Zhou Qingyang nodded, half-understanding.
At least she knew one thing: Su Chen was terrifying, even ghosts had to curry favor with him.
After all, she had heard Gan Jiang call him big brother loud and clear.
"Where are the others?" Su Chen asked Gan Jiang.
"After entering Building 1, big brother disappeared, and so did the other ghosts," Gan Jiang replied.
"I just found Mundo, and Mundo was also looking for big brother, so we each chose a direction to continue searching."
"As for the other ghosts, I didn't encounter any."
Then Gan Jiang hurriedly pulled Su Chen and said, "Big brother, we can't stay here for long. This place is terrifying, so terrifying."
"Let's find a way to leave and return to the neighborhood."
Although Gan Jiang had never been to the abandoned haunted building, all the ghosts on the sub-basement level dared not come here, which spoke volumes about its terror.
"Don't worry," Su Chen signaled to Gan Jiang to calm down.
Gan Jiang had been found, and he knew where Mundo was.
The possibility of dealing with Building 1 had increased.
This was related to his challenge as the new head of the Xin'an Neighborhood in the Horror World.
He wouldn't give up unless absolutely necessary.
If he couldn't complete it, he still needed to gain something.
This trip couldn't be in vain.
The abandoned haunted building had existed for a long time and contained many preserved items.
Su Chen believed it might hide some secrets about the past of the Horror World.
"Let's go find Mundo first," Su Chen said.
"Let's see if the owner of this eye is the severely injured major threat."
With Gan Jiang around, Su Chen felt much more confident, even walking with a dominant posture.
After all, in such a special environment, Gan Jiang had become a true Red-Clad ghost, a formidable fighting force.
Zhou Qingyang was still afraid of Gan Jiang and dared only to follow behind Su Chen.
But she was more curious.
The mummified corpse named Gan Jiang, like the most loyal bodyguard, circled around Su Chen, vigilant of everything around.
And in Zhou Qingyang's eyes, Su Chen became even more mysterious.
Although she had only been in contact with Su Chen for a short time,
the figure of this man had already been deeply etched into Zhou Qingyang's soul.
Because this man was Zhou Qingyang's only hope and future at this moment.
Led by Gan Jiang, Su Chen successfully reunited with Mundo.
Mundo was communicating with a ghost about something.
If you listened closely, it seemed to be about responsibility and love.
However, the ghost in front of Mundo obviously wasn't interested and let out a terrifying growl, attacking Mundo.
Mundo clamped its head under his arm and pounded it with fists as big as watermelons, shouting, "Why can't you understand?"
"Talk to me!"
Seeing this scene, Su Chen scratched his head in disbelief.
Mundo must have seen Su Chen's passionate speech at the gate of the Xin'an Neighborhood and tried to persuade this ghost by imitating him.
However, this ghost was similar to the downstairs ghost, completely shrouded by hatred and ominous aura.
It had no wisdom, not even the ability to speak.
"Big brother, it seems it can't understand what I'm saying!" Mundo exclaimed after seeing Su Chen.
"Why?"
After Su Chen appeared, Mundo asked hastily.
Su Chen told Mundo that not all ghosts could be communicated with.
It had just been born and had a lot to learn, so Su Chen would have to teach it slowly.
Take the ghost in Mundo's armpit, for example.
Su Chen told Mundo to just kill it; it was already a thoroughly malicious ghost devoid of rationality and wisdom.
Upon hearing that communication was impossible, Mundo opened his mouth wide and bit off the ghost's head, chewing on it like chewing gum.
Zhou Qingyang turned pale again and almost fainted.
This incredibly fierce ghost still called Su Chen big brother, which was simply shocking.
How terrifying was this man in front of her?
If he said he was the boss of the Horror World now, Zhou Qingyang would believe it without a doubt.
