Chapter 282
Chapter 282
"Jess, what's in the basement?" Robb, who was standing at the door, didn't rush down, and asked Jess beside him.
Jess looked down, thought about it quickly, and replied: "It's all some cardboard boxes, forks, hoes and other sundries, as well as discarded items left by the previous owner."
Robb asked again: "Has anything unusual happened in the basement?"
"I don't go to the basement very often. Dad goes there often, but I haven't heard him say anything unusual." Jess shook her head, "The only thing to say is that this door is difficult to open. I tried for a long time when I came here for the first time and couldn't open it."
Robb looked at the door handle that had just been easily turned open, and didn't care much.
It was almost certainly a prank by the three ghosts at the beginning.
Normally, it's not that easy for ordinary ghosts to harm people. After all, when they fight in real form, ordinary people can't beat them under stimulation, and the probability of success in desperately escaping is still quite high.
Usually they use side concealed means to persecute, or through constant harassment, people fall into panic and their mental defenses collapse, so as to achieve the purpose of possession.
But it takes time to do it step by step.
From the time Jess couldn't open the door at first to the scratches on her arm, she had already gone halfway through the process.
But before they could close the net, Robb caught them first.
"Follow me, or stay outside."
Robb gave the girl a choice, and turned on the light in the basement and walked down the stairs.
Jess looked around and saw that it was empty, so she chose to follow Robb.
Squeak~ Squeak~
With heavy steps, the old wooden ladder made a sound of being overwhelmed.
Walking down, Robb, who could already see the whole picture of the basement, looked around.
As Jess said, this was a very ordinary basement with a lot of sundries.
Squeak~
A slight sound.
The light in the basement went out after a flicker.
"Is the light bulb broken?" Jess looked at the dim basement and was about to pick up her phone to illuminate it.
Bang!
The sudden loud noise from behind startled her.
She looked back quickly and saw that the door of the basement had been closed for some reason.
"Robb!"
Before, Jess might have thought that someone had closed the door or that the wind had blown it. But now, she looked at Robb nervously.
And Robb reassured her as always.
He said calmly, "Don't worry, I'm here."
This little trick couldn't scare him.
What he didn't expect was that the other party was so anxious.
Step.
The moment Robb's legs stepped on the ground in the basement.
It seemed to have a strong attraction.
A gurgling sound suddenly sounded in the basement.
"Stay on the stairs and don't come down." Robb turned around and warned Jess.
Jess quickly retracted her legs that had just been raised and did as she was told.
The next second, her face changed and she exclaimed, "Robb! Watch your step!"
Robb lowered his head and looked down.
Accompanied by the increasingly loud gurgling sound.
The originally flat land seemed to be spitting bubbles, and filthy black water emerged.
In just two or three breaths, these extremely dirty black waters suddenly grew larger, and in the sound of rushing water, they flooded the entire basement floor.
Robb's soles were immediately soaked.
He saw that the black water was about to seep into his ankles.
Without waiting for him to react.
Bang! Seep! Bang! Bang!
The waves splashed!
Pale hands could not wait to reach out from under the black water, grabbing Robb's legs and pulling him down.
Seeing this, Jess reached out to grab Robb.
Robb waved his hand at her.
Jess did not understand.
But soon, she discovered a reality.
That is, no matter how hard the countless hands in the black water tried, Robb did not move at all.
If she looked more closely, she would find that those pale hands seemed to be grabbing Robb's legs, but in fact they didn't even touch Robb's trouser legs.
A thin but unbreakable invisible film was wrapping Robb's legs.
Not only could the pale hands not get close to him, but the black water under his feet was also isolated.
"I see."
Robb, who was currently floating in the air, had silver light in his eyes, and he looked carefully at everything under his feet.
The breath of hell he had felt before was emitted by this sudden black water.
The reason for this is that black water essentially belongs to hell.
Yes, hell!
Hell has appeared in the myths of every civilization of mankind.
Of course it exists.
Robb has dealt with many of the natives there.
Generally speaking, hell and the human world coexist, but that doesn't mean they can communicate with each other.
Especially when hell leads toThe human world.
But nothing is absolute.
Even the strongest houses will have cracks after hundreds of years of wind and rain.
The same is true for hell and the human world.
Although it is far from being able to enter and exit smoothly.
The large and small cracks in the human world that have been split into hell can have a significant effect.
For example, the demon summoning ritual with a higher success rate.
For example, after death, people become ghosts and stay in the human world.
Jess's house is where such a crack is.
And the crack is very large.
Looking at the black water under his feet, Robb knew that this was a projection of the black water in hell, not a real entity.
Even so, it was amazing enough.
At least in the supernatural events that Robb had dealt with before, some supernatural places were not closer to hell than here.
Being here, it is more likely to be disturbed by the power of hell.
In addition, because of the proximity to hell, people who died here can basically be directly transformed into ghosts.
Just like the previous owner of this house, the family of three that Robb just subdued.
Fortunately, this place is located in a remote area, and few people are willing to live here.
Otherwise, it will become a famous haunted house for murderers.
Robb knew that part of the reason why Redemption would let him deal with this place.
If it were someone else, he might not be able to stop it.
At this moment, watching the black water flowing with the breath of hell pile up higher and higher, Robb, who had fallen into hell, felt that he might be assimilated if he stayed there. He first called Jess to go upstairs.
Then, in the girl's worry, he opened his arms, flipped his palms, and pressed down.
The majestic spiritual power rushed out.
Phantom sounds, ghosts, screams, and roars broke out at this moment.
In the midst of the earthquake, Robb used his own strength to force the black water to shrink continuously.
No matter how the latter roared and struggled, the water level dropped rapidly and visibly.
Seeing this, Jess gradually became surprised and shocked from the initial panic.
She looked at Robb, who was like a holy spirit, in the center of the black water vortex.
In the past, she would never have believed that a person could be so powerful.
After all, this is too unscientific, isn't it?
