The man said seriously, "Then we can only work together to throw you out."
Killing was not an option; despite their numbers, more people meant more trouble. It was difficult to decide who would bear the blame, as the vengeful spirit only appeared on the person who delivered the killing blow.
However, they believed they could manage to throw him out by working together.
"With just you lot?" Bai Ye chuckled, then added, "Fine, you want proof, I'll give you proof."
As Bai Ye spoke, he walked towards the female ghost.
The female ghost immediately put on a pitiful act, pleading, "Help me, help me."
Everyone grew alert. The man directly blocked Bai Ye's path, while the others instinctively shielded the female ghost behind them.
Bai Ye casually reached out and pushed the man blocking his way aside, continuing forward. He looked at the female ghost and said, "You think you're the only one who can play these tricks?"
As he spoke, Bai Ye wagged his index finger.
Someone yelled at Bai Ye, "I'm warning you, don't come any closer!"
Bai Ye showed a look of disdain. "If I kill her and a vengeful spirit appears, it proves I'm human. If it doesn't appear, it means I'm a ghost. Whichever one of you kills me will get a fragment of a God Stone. This deal benefits you no matter what; you either eliminate a potential threat or get a God Stone fragment."
The surroundings fell silent.
The atmosphere began to feel off.
The female ghost started to panic. Although the others still stood in front of Bai Ye, the crowd had noticeably spread out a little.
The female ghost immediately pleaded again, "Help me, please, help me, I don't want to die."
It would have been better if the female ghost hadn't spoken. After she did, the surrounding crowd all turned their heads away, deliberately not looking at her.
The crowd, naturally, spread out even further, silently.
It was at this moment that Bai Ye suddenly raised the Evil Dragon's Roar, pointing it at the female ghost. "You think you're worthy of playing with me? How can a ghost understand human nature better than a human?"
*Bang!*
Bai Ye pulled the trigger. Accompanied by the roar of the Evil Dragon, the female ghost's chest was blasted to smithereens by Bai Ye's shot. She fell backward.
As the female ghost fell, no blood appeared. Her shattered body dissolved into black smoke. Similarly, no vengeful spirit appeared behind Bai Ye.
This naturally made everyone understand who was human and who was ghost. 138Reading.net
"The female ghost was quite beautiful, remember to look at her more."
Bai Ye mockingly glanced at the crowd, then walked to the side and casually found a spot to sit down.
The others looked embarrassed, and Bai Ye wasn't exactly pleased either, because there were no God Stone fragments.
That female ghost was from the Amusement Park of Death, not someone who had drawn the Ghost Card, so killing her brought no benefits.
However, at least no one was telling Bai Ye to get lost anymore.
Bai Ye also got a temporary chance to rest. It wasn't because he was tired; his body, modified by the T-virus, was incredibly powerful and not easily fatigued. It was just that Bai Ye checked the time. The first hour was almost over, meaning it was time for the second round of card draws.
Since that was the case, Bai Ye wasn't in a hurry to act. He would wait for the second round of card draws and see if he could draw the Ghost Card.
Bai Ye thought this while looking around with ill intent.
One, two, three...
There were exactly seven people in the circus. Although Bai Ye's goal was the restricted zone mission, if he could get an extra God Stone fragment...
Bai Ye's smile became even more malevolent.
Since he was idle, Bai Ye listlessly checked his status and pondered what he should do next after obtaining a spirit body.
After all, he felt his physical enhancements were sufficient after obtaining the spirit body, and it was time to consider ways to become stronger beyond his physical form.
Then, Bai Ye discovered some good news.
Five Spirits Disk...
Spirit Gathering (100/100)
The Spirit Gathering for the Five Spirits Disk was actually full.
Spirit gathering didn't require much effort from Bai Ye. The Five Spirits Disk would absorb the five-elemental energies from the surrounding environment on its own. Moreover, killing other participants or various strange creatures in the world battlefield could also provide a certain amount of five-elemental energy.
Of course, the most important factor was that the Spirit Gathering of the Five Spirits Disk increased gradually. The first time it filled up was naturally easier.
Since that was the case, what was there to hesitate about? Bai Ye chose to absorb the five-elemental spiritual energy!
"You have completed Spirit Gathering cultivation. Your Strength, Speed, Stamina, and Spirit stats have increased by 3 points."
"You have completed Spirit Gathering cultivation. Your Five Spirits Curses have been enhanced."
His physical attributes, except for Intelligence, had all improved. However, the increase was not significant, and he couldn't feel a noticeable difference. After all, the Five Spirits Disk was for continuous improvement, not a one-time transaction, but a slow and steady process, so it was natural that the increase wouldn't be too large at once.
In addition, his Five Spirits Curses had also improved. However, there was no visible change; they remained the lowest-tier Taoist magic, but their power would increase.
Concurrently, the Spirit Gathering for the Five Spirits Disk reset to 0/200, with the cap increased.
It was at this moment...
A luminous screen suddenly popped up in front of everyone. At the top of the screen, two new cards rose.
An hour had passed, and it was time for everyone to draw new cards.
"Ghost Card, Ghost Card, Ghost Card..."
Bai Ye muttered, and as usual, he drew the card on the left.
Flipping the card over, Bai Ye's appearance quickly materialized on the white surface.
"Damn it!"
Bai Ye couldn't help but curse. It was a Human Card again!
In the second round, not enough people had died yet, and the probability of drawing a Ghost Card was indeed still low, but Bai Ye had been hoping for it!
As long as he drew a Ghost Card, Bai Ye was confident he could complete the three restricted zone missions of the Amusement Park of Death within an hour. However, it was still a Human Card, making even simple free movement difficult.
Meanwhile...
"Believe me, I drew a Human Card again. I'm really human, I swear!"
The seven people who had seemed to be forming a pact before were instantly consumed by distrust during the new round of card draws.
After all, no one could be sure what card the person next to them had drawn this time.
Therefore, the game rules of the Amusement Park of Death were truly wicked. Building trust and then destroying it was undoubtedly playing with human nature.
Explaining immediately after drawing cards was meaningless. They couldn't see each other's cards. If sworn oaths alone were effective, how could there be so many villains in the world?
Seeing the people, who were getting along harmoniously moments ago, instantly become suspicious of each other, Bai Ye couldn't help but click his tongue.
Sometimes, trust truly made one feel sorrowful.
