Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 848

The male ghost continued to provide information:

"This bridge was originally built by the Ruler of Hell to connect the Eastin Area with the Northin Land. However, it was smashed a hundred years ago by a powerful entity to suppress the creature in the Ghost Abyss..."

Ghosts would choose to come here and engage in activities to atone for their sins, and the rulers of the Ten Hell Palaces would grant them virtues as a form of redemption.

Lilly understood and asked, "So that's how it is... But what lies within the Ghost Abyss? Why is there a bloody pelvis?"

The male ghost adjusted himself, his eyeballs shifting, and replied, "I don't know what lies beneath the abyss... According to the bone, it seems there is a pathway that leads to the underworld. It's a tunnel... Someone would accidentally stumble upon it."

In other words, those who passed through that pathway met with a fatal accident, and their souls and bodies were drawn into the Ghost Abyss.

"When I was still alive, I often heard stories about accidents where people vanished, but their bodies couldn't be found... They must have been dragged into the abyss like this!"

"Not just pelvises, but also femurs, ribs, and skulls..."

Various bones could be found within the abyss.

The cowardly ghost asked the crucial question, "How frequently do these bones go up and down?"

He was referring to the pelvis that had recently emerged from the abyss and then descended once again.

However, the male ghost shook his head and replied, "I'm not sure. It depends on how frequently people die in the bordering area between the human world and the underworld."

Lilly contemplated the situation. This "elevator" was operated by the deceased, and the frequency of its ascension depended on the occurrence of deaths...

"No wonder Alban mentioned that there is only one chance to survive," the cowardly ghost sighed. "It's hard to determine when a person will pass away."

Only the Ruler of Hell knows who's going to die...

The realization struck the cowardly ghost, and he turned his head abruptly, exclaiming, "Yes, only the King of Hades knows!"

Lilly immediately grasped the significance and eyes were filled with excitement. "Yes, that's right, I know!"

The solution was right in front of them.

With Lilly riding on the backs of the cowardly ghost and the others, they hurriedly returned to the edge of the abyss.

Lilly took out her pen and began to murmur, "Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits, innocent souls, and departed souls, heed my call! Ah..."

All the ghosts watched in confusion, wondering what kind of incantation she was reciting. But sure enough, they saw the Pen of Judgment emanate a golden light, illuminating their surroundings. Within that golden light, countless names scrolled rapidly.

"The names passing by are those of people who have already died!" Lilly explained. "We can see when new names appear!"

Everyone fixed their gaze on the golden light, feeling as if they were watching subtitles whizzing by. Lilly continued to read aloud the names of all the departed souls.

It seemed that she was reading the names of accidental deaths that had occurred over hundreds of years.

Finally, as the scrolling names gradually slowed down, a few new names began to emerge in the golden light.

The names moved at a slower pace, and one name appeared at the very top of the golden light, followed by another name.

"Nate Perkins..." Lilly read aloud. "This name has just died, could it be the pelvis we saw earlier?"
