"Invisible enemies?"
Lin Yu watched the blood flowers blooming in the air, feeling slightly astonished.
Chen Zhuo's expression turned extrely grim: "Enemies we can't see... doesn't that make us extrely vulnerable?"
Lin Yu remained quite calm.
"It's not that bad—at least A Nian can see them, right?"
As he spoke, Chen Zhuo's expression relaxed sowhat.
At the sa ti, Lin Yu turned his gaze toward A Nian.
"How are you able to see them? Is there any way to let us see too?"
Li Nian pointed to the sunglasses on her face.
"It's thanks to these... Let use the party information sharing to show you what this [item] can do, then you'll understand."
After using party items, team mbers not only couldn't harm each other but also gained so relatively convenient functions—this was also related to the grade and type of the [Team Cards].
Although Chen Zhuo's [Team Cards] were the most basic model, they still had the function of sharing each other's [item] information.
An item description appeared on Li Nian's sunglasses.
[Hell Detective's Sunglasses: When worn, allows the user to see spirits, energy entities, and other intangible objects or life forms.]
[Description: As a detective, you need sharp vision;
but if what you're pursuing can't be seen with the naked eye, you also need a very good pair of glasses.]
Seeing this description, Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
After discovering earlier that Li Nian could see so kind of "invisible" things, Lin Yu had actually been sowhat nervous.
He was very worried that Li Nian might have so ans of seeing through concealnt, which would pose a risk of her spotting the little octopus "Hannah."
Of course, Lin Yu had also been cautious—before eting Li Nian, he hadn't let Hannah perch on his shoulder but instead hid her in his pocket.
However, Lin Yu felt there would definitely be tis when he needed to use Hannah—if Hannah crawled out of his pocket and was seen by Li Nian...
It wouldn't be too hard to explain, since "May" and "Zhu Ming" were indeed acquainted in Li Nian's view, so having the sa "pet octopus" around wasn't impossible.
Moreover, Hannah had once claid that her camouflage skills were excellent, almost impossible to detect—even if Li Nian had ans to see through concealnt, she might not be able to see through Hannah's [Concealnt Camouflage] inherited from "Ka the Octopus."
But regardless...
Lin Yu still hoped that "Hannah's" existence could remain confidential and that there would be no possibility of exposure.
For now, it was much better that Li Nian's glasses only worked on spirits.
"So these things are all spirits?"
As Lin Yu spoke, Li Nian nodded.
"Exactly. Although spirits are usually ghosts, it's not entirely accurate to call these guys ghosts... because they seem more like they were 'manufactured.'"
As she spoke, Li Nian nimbly vaulted over the first two rows of seats, then picked up the utility knife that had fallen earlier.
Then, she lightly stabbed toward the front left.
"Pfft!"
Blood sprayed out once again.
"There's good news—these things are actually pretty weak. They don't move very fast, and as long as you have ans to harm spirits or non-physical entities, a single casual strike can take them out."
Li Nian pulled out the utility knife and casually flicked off the blood.
Hearing Li Nian's words, Lin Yu keenly sensed the implication.
"So there's bad news too?"
"The bad news is these things are everywhere!"
Li Nian casually slashed through the air a few tis, and blood spurted out everywhere.
Simultaneously, Lin Yu felt a cold, stinging pain on his neck and arms.
It was like being instantly frostbitten.
Soon, even areas covered by clothing began to feel piercingly cold.
Without a doubt, if left unaddressed... these things definitely had the ability to kill them.
Even if not fatal, prolonged exposure could cause frostbite.
Nearby, Chen Zhuo was flailing his arms around and screaming in pain.
"Ouch! Ouch! They're on , help!"
Lin Yu remained very calm.
"ans to harm non-physical entities?"
Although not entirely sure, he vaguely felt that the torch in his hand might be capable.
Even if not, it couldn't hurt to try.
"Whoosh!"
Pale flas erged, instantly illuminating the space around Lin Yu and Chen Zhuo.
Dozens of round, spiky creatures resembling pufferfish were clinging all over their bodies.
"So this is actually a torch? And it can make these things visible too!"
Li Nian exclaid in surprise.
"Of course," Lin Yu said, feeling reassured now that the torch could reveal these invisible spirits. "And these things... should be very afraid of it."
After all...
This thing originally burned "Fear"—it used human emotions and soul-born intangible substances as fuel, and had once ignited a monster condensed from souls—『Chate』!
Lin Yu swung it left and right a couple of tis, and the invisible pufferfish-like small monsters clinging to him seed to sense the threat, clumsily fleeing his body.
But...
They were too slow.
Lin Yu easily caught up with them, sweeping the flas over their bodies.
Then...
"Sizzle!"
These pufferfish instantly ignited—they were engulfed by the pale flas born from "fear," burning even more easily than physical objects.
A pleased expression appeared on Lin Yu's face.
"Seems like it really works."
He waved the torch over to Chen Zhuo, also dispersing and igniting the pufferfish on him.
Lin Yu didn't take further action—he didn't need to.
As Li Nian had said, these things were everywhere.
The ignited pufferfish clumsily collided with each other in the air, quickly setting more of their companions ablaze.
To the "fear flas," these creatures were far too flammable, as if there truly was so kind of restraint relationship between them.
Like a chain reaction, one pale fla after another lit up, and the air was instantly filled with large and small pale fireballs!
"Be careful not to touch them for too long—these things can ignite physical objects too."
Lin Yu reminded them, then calmly returned to his seat.
The still-shaken Chen Zhuo slowly sat down too, then looked at Lin Yu with eyes full of admiration.
"As expected of the Ga Mast—"
Lin Yu imdiately cut him off, speaking in a low voice: "Ahem, didn't your introducer tell you it's best to keep his identity confidential?"
Chen Zhuo paused for a mont, then understood.
The chubby boy's mind quickly beca active. Although usually sowhat slow, Chen Zhuo was after all a high school student—his brain was in its most active period—and he soon grasped the subtleties!
It seed that although this "A Nian" was introduced by "Zhu Ming," "Zhu Ming" seed to have a closer relationship with the "Ga Master" and didn't want this Master Thief of the 『Free Alliance』 to know about the Ga Master's existence.
So Chen Zhuo imdiately changed his tune.
"This white fla is truly amazing! You can just casually pull out sothing so effective against this dungeon... looks like you're very familiar with this dungeon too!"
Hearing Chen Zhuo's flattery, Lin Yu shook his head.
"No, I just got lucky."
"I also want to know what exactly this train's story is!"
After saying this, he turned his gaze back to Li Nian.
