Chapter 143: Nanzhou, Four Years Ago
At this moment, there were also cries coming from several directions of the campsite: 'There are ghosts!'
Upon hearing the sound, Lin Keqing transformed into a phantom and flew towards the center of the campsite.
When they arrived, thousands of smoke like black shadows floated above the campsite, gathering together like ordinary dark clouds. It was only when they parted that they could be seen clearly. These shadows resembled the contours of human figures, with the head and two hands faintly distinguishable. Below the chest was a long smoky tail.
It looks very similar to the legendary ghosts, no wonder they are mistaken for ghosts. Wherever they go, people panic and tragedies occur frequently.
And after these people died, they were swallowed up by the shadow, and as they swallowed the shadow, it continued to grow, and so on.
There were too many opponents and I didn't know what they were from. Lin Keqing watched quietly and soon saw the clues.
This phantom does not harm people, but intentionally scares them into chaos, forcing them to die and then devouring their souls. It is unclear whether this phantom is conscious or controlled by someone.
Someone soon discovered the pattern, and people quickly calmed down after a brief scare. Soon after, no more accidents happened, and the shadows gathered again, turning into a dark cloud that drifted away.
The shadow came and went quickly, only ten minutes before and after, but it alarmed the entire camp and caused hundreds of deaths.
