It frightened them when Hessiana said she saw something, adding a more eerie feeling to the already spooky atmosphere. Nangong Sanba quickly drew his small crossbow and aimed it straight at the stairway. "Are you sure? But, I didn't sense it."
Vivian sent out a bat to check out the upper floor without saying a word. The bat came back with nothing after going around for a while. Shaking her head, she said, "Nothing. Not even a faint shadow."
"You are giving me goosebumps," Hao Ren mumbled, rubbing his arm. He had experienced more dangerous situations, but sometimes, dangerous and spooky were not the same. This town was eerie, and the longer the stay, the more intense the feelings. There was a surreal feeling where he could not make sense of the inexplicable atmosphere, not only because of the flame in the pit, but also the invisible things that lurked in the air.
Probably the ubiquitous spirits were giving him the goosebumps.
