A phone ringtone suddenly echoed through the corridor.
At first, it was merely somewhat grating, putting people on edge.
But soon, Li Xin and Wan Ling noticed the hollow, eerie, puppet-like mechanical quality within the ringing.
Moreover.
As time passed, they sensed that the sound was somewhat hollow—it wasn't echoing through the corridor.
It seemed... to have arisen from within their minds...
“What kind of Evil Spirit is this?”
Wan Ling's gaze grew increasingly gloomy.
Although the instant the ringing appeared, the Evil Spirits blocking the two of them seemed to fall into a state of stagnation.
However.
If it could suppress such terrifying Evil Spirits, then this newly emerged supernatural phenomenon would only be even more frightening.
"No."
"This is a living person."
Li Xin's face was as heavy as water as he said in a low voice:
"This ringtone came from a supernatural technique, and in the hotel, only Awakened can use supernatural abilities."
"The roaming supernatural entities were killed by the Vicious Ghost long ago."
"How do you know?" Wan Ling jolted violently at those words and turned to look at him. "This ringtone appeared suspiciously, but why haven't I seen any trace of a living person?"
At this moment.
Although the phone ringtone was growing louder and louder,
apart from the two of them, the corridor contained only those Evil Spirits that seemed to have been immobilized by a binding spell.
There was no third person.
Besides.
When Awakened used their abilities, the supernatural phenomena they displayed were actually no different from those of Vicious Ghosts. Although the supernatural entity carried the stale blood energy of a living person, that was merely its body.
Its supernatural nature actually came from the same source as that of Vicious Ghosts.
"Heh."
"Wait a little longer and you'll know."
