“We achieved something like this in 1944. Those fascists thought it was spirits…” The doctor continued babbling. He also revealed the method to deal with this ghost.

Since the ghost couldn’t exist separately without a body, it needed a host, which was why it had two consciousnesses.

What the main character needed to do was to shut off the life-support system of its host, Billy.

A simple example would be in the ‘Wind and Cloud’ TV Series. In it, the Sword Saint’s physical body died first when he used Sword 23, and that was why he wasn’t able to kill Xiong Ba.

Now, the main character had to destroy the physical body of this ghost to kill it.

Usually, it wasn’t something that an ordinary man with severe injuries and poor physical conditions could do. However, since the ghost had two consciousnesses, and one of them was willing to help the main character despite its short periods of existence, this task wasn’t impossible to do.

Finally, Fang Qi controlled the main character to dodge the ghost’s attacks and shut down the life-support system of the host. The creepy black shadow pulled the main character up into the air and then threw him onto the ground heavily. During the process, its force was being weakened repeatedly.

In fact, its force was weakened to such a point that it could no longer sustain itself and looked vague.

At this moment, the elves were enjoying the livestream while eating spicy sticks.

Suddenly, the black shadow entered the main character’s body before it disintegrated!

With a shrill, helpless, and desperate scream, the horrifying black shadow entered his body!

After falling from several floors high several times, getting his fingers amputated, and enduring all the pain and fright for so long, this night felt like 100 years to the main character.

Another person might have become crazy long ago.

After this weird thing entered his body, the journalist named Miles was on the verge of mental collapse.

Everything was now meaningless, regardless if his intention was just that he wanted to disclose the criminal acts or that he wanted to dig out a big sensational news story.

The audience could see the main character’s sight becoming blurry on the screen as if his mind was breaking down. He still protected his video camera as if he wanted to bring the results of his hard work, even one bit of it, out to the world.

His sadness and disillusionment made everyone watching this scene sense a chill.

After picking up his video camera, Miles dragged his heavy body toward the gate slowly and painfully. He even fell to the ground several times.

At this moment, everyone watched as Miles finally got to the gate, and then the gate opened by itself. He faced dozens of black gun muzzles.

In between the soldiers, the professor who had told Miles the ‘truth’ was standing there.

Miles, the main character, was peppered by machine gun bullets.

“Why…?!” Hearing the screams through the screen and watching Miles’ eyes slowly close, everyone asked this question subconsciously.

After going through so many trials and tribulations and enduring so much pain, the main character still couldn’t escape death.

The players, who had experienced the horror and hardships in the game alongside the main character, understood his bitterness and resentment.

The truth was now obvious. The whole underground lab and the deranged inmates had been part of an experiment.

The experiment failed, and the ghost killed everyone in the lab. Now that the ghost was dead, the mercenaries who were moved here to deal with the ghost could enter the lab safely.

Of course, the secrets underground couldn’t be disclosed to the public.

“How can it end like this?!” Sala asked loudly.

The other elves who had played this game also had complicated feelings about the ending.

In the darkness, it seemed like only despair was left.

However, the audience seemed to hear another voice rise in the darkness. “My goodness.”

“You have become the host!”

When Miles’s body slowly fell down, a black shadow seemed to have gotten out of the ‘cocoon’ which was Miles’ body and evolved into a butterfly.

“My goodness!”

“What’s that?!”

The elves who were watching screamed again.

The screen dimmed again.

When the horrifying spiritual energy got freed from the restraint of body, gunshots and screams mingled in the darkness.

But this time, the screams came from the enemies.

All the living beings were annihilated.

…

After Mr. Fang finished the game, the elves stood behind him in a daze.

One elf froze with a spicy stick in her hand in mid-air; she forgot to put it into her mouth.

This was obviously a game to test the players’ spirit and will. In the last moment, when the main character’s spirit ascended, the players could feel the massive amount of spiritual energy which was so powerful that it could exist without a body, rule over every living being, and control everyone’s life.

Fang Qi could even feel the sharp growth in his spiritual energy!

No one noticed that Fang Qi’s eyes emitted bright glints that had never been there before, which seemed to be the result of the unusually horrifying spiritual energy.

“It ends like this…?”

“Then, is Miles dead or alive anyway…?”

“Is this entity Miles or the ghost?” Elder Sewell asked after watching the livestream.

“This game looks good…”

“What looks good?” At this moment, an ancient voice sounded from behind Elder Sewell.

“This game,” Elder Sewell said, “Should we continue with the game?”

“What game?” The ancient voice asked again.

“Outlast,” Elder Sewell pointed at the screen and said.

Huh…? This voice sounds so familiar? Elder Sewell furrowed her pretty brows and thought in bafflement.

“Why does this voice sound so familiar?” Captain Lance of the Snow Pigeon Team also asked.

Then, every elf in the area shook, and they turned their heads mechanically.

The elves were so scared that they looked as if they were looking at a ghost.

“First… First Elder!!??”

These elves’ minds turned blank. How come the First Elder is here?

Also, he caught us right in the middle of discussing a game…

Finished! We’re finished this time!

At this moment, it was clear that every customer in the shop noticed the disturbance.

They saw a silver-haired and silver-bearded old elf who was dressed in a pale-grey robe. Despite his old age, he looked dignified and grand while his hair and robe fluttered without wind moving them. He was flanked by elf elders and guards.

The trace of anger hidden in the depths of his deep eyes looked like lava that was moving at the bottom of a volcano. His horrifying presence felt as if a storm was coming, and it slapped toward the people in the area like surging waves, suffocating them all.

This old elf stood there like a holy spirit, and no one could look him directly.

The whole shop instantly fell silent.

We’re dead! We’re dead! The First Elder is going to lose his temper! The elves felt as if they were going crazy; they had never seen the First Elder lose his temper, but…

At this moment, a voice sounded.

Mr. Fang put down his virtual reality headset and asked, “Senior, are you here to get online?”

All the elves stared at Mr. Fang with their eyes wide-open.

!!??.
