Then, with a bizarre posture, they stared at them.
It was bizarre because the ghost guests, who had their backs to them, did not turn around. Instead, their heads rotated 180 degrees on their necks as their eyes stared straight at them.
This scene was so horrifying that even Gita yelped in fear.
The hall had become utterly silent—
Fang Hong was the first to react, grabbing Gita and stepping back as the Walker beside him buzzed to life, positioning itself in front of everyone. Then he turned his head and whispered to Hansen, "Is this also part of the mission, Mr. Hansen?"
"How could it be?" Hansen was equally stunned. He had been on this mission more than once and though not every time did he manage to retrieve the three items from Dolifen, survival was never an issue. To be honest, adventurers generally agreed that this mission was not very dangerous.
But he had never encountered such a situation before.
