Chapter 675: Chapter 357 Three Types of Shadow Ghosts_2

Mu You had absolutely no time to react before he was hit by a gigantic force, which sent him flying and reducing his HP significantly. At the same time, the girl in his hand was flung away as well.

The good news was that Mu You’s reflexes were quite quick. Still mid-air, he reached into his pocket subconsciously and pressed on the pocket watch.

Everything rewound. Mu You returned to the time just before he entered the forest.

Armed with his warning this time, he finally managed to be alert towards the right side of the bushes.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, the black figure sprung out once again.

This time, Mu You got a clear look. It was a muscle-bound man, topless, enshrouded in a black aura similar to the Shadow Ghost hunting from the rear.

However, unlike the Shadow Ghost from behind whose black aura engulfed the entire body and transformed it into a five-meter-tall titan, this man only had a thin layer of black energy wrapped around his body like a coat.

But even this thin layer provided him with enormous energy and amplified his speed to a blur. If it weren’t for Mu You’s advanced precautions, he still wouldn’t have been spared from getting hit.

"Boom!"

The figure dashed towards him like a bolt of lightning. Mu You managed to avoid the attack by just a fraction by leaping off from a tree trunk above and got heavily thrusted.

Meanwhile, the black figure kept charging forward, colliding and breaking multiple giant trees before finally coming to a halt.

"You managed to dodge? Who are you?"

The muscular man looked at Mu You without a hint of emotion. The words he spoke were in fluent Star Spirit Language.

Mu You frowned. Although the man’s appearance and physique had undergone tremendous changes, Mu You had a feeling that this man could be one of those two who visited his shop in the morning. More precisely, he could be the man with glasses.

This man was currently being possessed by a Shadow Ghost.

Counting the Shadow Ghost that was chasing them, Mu You had now encountered three Shadow Ghosts. However, these three differed drastically.

Despite the ghost chasing from behind was seemingly gigantic with an oppressive presence, its actual combat power and destructiveness were far inferior to the Shadow Ghost that possessed him.

The Shadow Ghost in this box was capable of battling the Pirate Ghost at the peak level, a Legendary Level force.

Whereas the Shadow Ghost behind gave him the impression of it just reaching Legendary Level, it even seemed a bit forced. Its power was probably around level 25 – evolved but not fully. More specifically, it should be called ’a half-step Legend’.

As for this muscle man, he was even weaker. Mu You could confirm that he didn’t reach the Legendary Level, and was perhaps only at level 22 or 23. The significant thing about this man was that his traits were specifically physical, with narrowed attributes making him more troublesome to deal with than a player at the same level.

Of course, although the Shadow Ghost possessing this muscle man was the weakest among the three, it had its own significant advantage: It retained rationality!

From the fluent words that he spoke, this man apparently retained self-consciousness. In other words, this Shadow Ghost was indeed a controllable Shadow Ghost!

The control over the Shadow Ghost makes a sea of difference - a Shadow Ghost without control is just like brainless pests. However, a controllable Shadow Ghost is a solid fighting force.

At this moment, the muscle man bent his legs, disappeared like an afterimage, and launched another attack on Mu You.

This time Mu You still couldn’t avoid it, the guy’s power and agility were even greater than his own vampire state’s doubled attributes.

Mu You rewound time and managed to dodge this attack using his Prophet ability, then turned around and continued to flee.

He couldn’t stop and fight in his current state. Firstly, there was a giant shadow ghost chasing from behind, meaning he was being hunted by two shadow ghosts at once. Secondly, he had to protect the little girl he was carrying.

The little girl’s current state was a bit strange, like she was hypnotized, unable to control her actions. So, Mu You couldn’t put her in his bag; otherwise, she might leave through the Dream Space again.

Mu You could only continue fleeing unrelentingly. The giant shadow ghost chasing from behind was easy to deal with because it lacked rationality; it wasn’t easy for it to catch up with him due to the hectic destruction it caused along the way. As for the muscle man Shadow Ghost, Mu You had the pocket watch as his secret weapon, enabling him to dodge the sudden attacks time after time.

By this time, there were sounds of police sirens and helicopters in the distance, but it was not Mu You who called the police. He was well aware that the police wouldn’t be able to handle the situation. He had only contacted Lin Xue.

In the current K city, the only one who could assist him against the Shadow Ghost was Lin Xue with her Grim Reaper skin, and probably also the Shadow Ghost inside his box.

Mu You didn’t let the Ghost in the box out earlier because he was worried that it would cause chaos in the city due to lack of control. But now, since there was already a ghost on the loose, having one more didn’t matter.

Using a Ghost to defeat another Ghost could be a solution, but before that, he needed to guide them to a more distant battlefield.

Mu You rapidly headed towards the suburbs while calculating the time in his head.

Finally, when he had lured his pursuers to a desolate suburb, his phone in his pocket vibrated.

Mu You quickly pulled out his cell phone and took a glance.

It was indeed a message from Lin Xue, containing only three brief words: I’m here.

Mu You felt a sense of relief.

He put away his cell phone and stopped in an open area.

Almost as soon as he stopped, the sound of breaking air echoed from behind him again.

"Aren’t you running anymore?"

The muscle man charged towards him at an incredible speed.
