Just at this moment, a rustling sound shattered the deathly silence.
Several shadowy figures, like ghosts, appeared within the fog
and seemed to be swiftly floating towards them, growing in numbers.
Lin Chuqiao's heart tightened, and she immediately lowered her voice to warn:
"Bai Ling, Big Hammer, get ready for battle, those ghostly figures seem to be getting closer to us!"
All three of them quickly stood back-to-back, adopting a defensive formation, watching their surroundings intently.
When those figures came closer and the fog slightly dispersed, Lin Chuqiao realized with shock that they were actually a group of living humans.
Yet before they could start communicating, that group caught sight of Lin Chuqiao and her companions, their faces filled with horror as if witnessing the most terrifying sight imaginable, and they shouted:
"Run, those ghostly figures will devour you!"
Lin Chuqiao was startled, instinctively lifting her eyes to look.
