A "figure" in a hospital gown was dragging an ax along the floor in the empty hospital corridor.
His long neck wound was visible when he raised his head. It was a blunt injury that appeared to have been cut out with an ax. A thin layer of skin barely kept the head attached to the body. The sight of him would make people cringe.
When Drake saw this, he broke out in a cold sweat. A normal person would not have died with such a large wound on their neck.
The figure that stood in front of him was alive; he also smiled at Drake eerily and raised the ax in his hand.
Drake always remained calm and indifferent, turned around, and fled for his life at this point. In a dire situation like this, he finally revealed a childlike panic.
Drake screamed in his head. Oh no! Help… There’s a psycho killer!
Drake ran frantically to save his life when he heard the sound of the ax dragging on the ground. He thought he had run at least a few miles, but for some reason, he was still running in the corridor.
The laughter of that psychopath was unsettling,"Kakakaka…"
He appeared behind Drake all of a sudden. Unconsciously, Drake turned around and noticed him leaning forward with a sinister smile.
He said, "I got you."
He raised the ax high up. His head tilted to one side without the support of a neck. There was a ruthless look in his eyes as he bellowed, "Kill the rat! Chop it up! Slice it all up!"
Drake cursed secretly, "Psychopath!"
He launched a punch at once. That punch sent the man's head flying, and he rolled to the edge of the corridor with a thud.
Lilly and a few others just retreated back to the corridor.
Josh had yet to stabilize his footing when he saw a head rolling toward his feet. He was astounded.
"Again?" Josh shouted and immediately hid behind Lilly. He fumbled through his backpack.
Gear, where is my gear?
The iron pot in his bag stuck at the opening of the backpack, and he could not get his gear out. Josh threw his backpack at him without hesitation.
The hospital became quiet again after Lilly ran into the building. All the noise had disappeared. Pablo had instructed Lilly to find the feral ghost in her own way. Therefore, Lilly was performing divination as she ran.
Josh reminded her to use the spirit compass.
Lilly recalled that she had this incredible gear. She summoned the spirit compass and finally located the feral ghost with it.
The headless feral ghost remained standing, even though his head had been knocked off. He frantically swung the ax. The expression of the head on the ground also turned aggressive.
Drake felt his body turn cold and heavy. He wanted to run toward Lilly. Somehow, his movements turned stiff, and he had to dodge the ax clumsily.
When he saw this headless creature still capable of waving the ax, Drake reached a conclusion: this was not a "human," it was a ghost.
Just then, he saw Lilly rushing over. Lilly yelled and threw out three talismans to block the ax, which was about to hit Drake.
"Don't be scared, Drake! I’m here!"
"Go! Spiritual Fire!"
Lilly swung her hand and threw out a fireball. It was a small fireball, but it burned ferociously.
The fireball hit the headless feral ghost and instantly ignited it. The feral ghost's body twisted in the flames. He let out an agonizing scream and blindly charged toward the children.
Lilly raised her hand, and a purple sledgehammer appeared out of thin air. She asked, "Hey, Mr. Headless Feral Ghost, do you prefer a small hammer or a big hammer?"
