Chapter 76: Evil Spirit Romance

Inside the house, the lights were dim, and the flickering candlelight from a few candles cast fluctuating shadows, as if whispering. At this moment, Eric and Lena were sitting around an old round table, with a stained copy of Romance of the Evil Dead spread out in front of them.

"Do you believe this, Eric?" Lena's voice was particularly clear in the silence. She pointed to the part about spirit experiments on the page, frowned slightly, and looked a little confused.

"I don't know, but this book provides the key information we need." Eric sighed slightly and looked up at her. His eyes flashed with determination under the candlelight. "Only through these experiments can we learn more about the truth about evil spirits!"

"But the success rate of artificially inducing a spirit is extremely low." Lena closed the book and bit her lower lip, as if the uneasiness in her heart was increasing. "If we fail, the consequences will be terrible."

Eric suppressed his inner anxiety and tried to convince her with reason: "Lena, this book mentions that if we can find certain conditions - such as the right soul medium and the correct steps, our success rate will be greatly improved."

Lena shook her head slightly, her silver hair flickering faintly in the candlelight. "But the price may be something we cannot afford, Eric. Have you ever thought that if the spirit is successfully created, will it backfire on us?"

He sighed, facing Lena's worried eyes, feeling a little scared. "I understand your concerns, Lena. But this is our only chance to resist the invasion of evil spirits. We must try."

Lena was silent, her fingers gently stroking the cover of the book, she always felt that this road was full of thorns, she was afraid of losing him, and she was also afraid of losing her mind. Just then, there was a faint whisper outside the door, which made her back cold.

"I heard something." Lena whispered, her eyes darting around, "Did you hear it?"

"Don't worry, it might just be the wind." Eric frowned slightly and walked towards the door. The moment he opened the door, the lights in the corridor suddenly flickered, as if responding to his uneasiness.

"Eric, be careful!" Lena shouted.

At this moment, a vague figure flashed at the end of the corridor, seemingly swallowed by the darkness, with only the cunning eyes emitting a strange light in the darkness. Eric's heart tightened, and he took a few steps back uncontrollably.

"Who is it!" he shouted, but his voice echoed in the empty corridor and seemed to receive no response.

Lena followed closely behind, feeling a wave of uneasiness spreading. "We can't stay here, go down and hide the books." Her voice was low and urgent.

The two quickly packed up their books and headed downstairs. In the gloomy corridor, the space seemed particularly depressing, and the footsteps seemed particularly loud. With every step, their heartbeats seemed to speed up, as if those shadows were whispering, waiting for their arrival.

Suddenly, the door at the end of the corridor slowly opened, making a dull creaking sound, revealing a dark gap. Eric and Lena looked at each other, seeing the fear on each other's faces, and an invisible force imprisoned their steps there.

"We should go," Eric's voice trembled slightly, "Quick! Let's find a safe place!"

At this moment, the mysterious figure appeared behind the door again, gradually walked out, and turned into a blurry figure. Its face became clearer in the flickering candlelight. It was a woman with a pale face and empty eyes, like a body without a soul.

"Are you looking for me?" She spoke slowly, her tone low and fierce, like a roar from hell.

Lena was so frightened that her face turned pale. She took a step back and held Eric's hand tightly. "Who is she? Let's go!"

“Don’t be afraid.” The woman continued, but her tone was extremely strange. “I just want to tell you that the real evil spirit is not outside, but deep in your heart. Your fear is the real evil.”

"Shut up!" Eric yelled in horror, his mind in a mess. He knew that the appearance of this woman was definitely not accidental, and she must have a close connection with those evil spirits.

However, Lena's eyes fell on the woman, as if she was attracted by some force. "Who... who are you?" she asked in a trembling voice.

"I am the deepest fear in your heart." The woman slowly approached them, her eyes filled with a dark shadow. "The spirit experiment you pursue will only awaken the evil in your heart again."

"No!" Eric shook his head vigorously, trying to get rid of her magic, "We won't let you control us!"

But Lena's heart was filled with countless questions. She looked at the vague figure and felt extremely scared, but she couldn't look away. Her voice was weak and choked: "Then what should I do? If I can't overcome the fear in my heart, I can no longer move forward."

“Only by accepting it and making peace with yourself can you find the strength to move forward.” The woman’s voice seemed to be an echo from afar, slowly fading away and disappearing into the night.

"Lena, let's go." Eric's voice was firm, but also a little uneasy. At this moment, he understood that only by facing the fear in his heart could he truly resist those terrible evil spirits.

They walked down the stairs together, the sturdy wooden structure making a low sound behind them. At this time, the end of the corridor became darker and darker, like an endless abyss, waiting for their arrival.

"Eric, if we fail..." Lena's voice trembled, as if she was about to fall into a dark abyss.

"We won't fail." Eric answered firmly. Although he was also uneasy in his heart, he held Lena's hand tightly and made up his mind secretly, "No matter what the result is, we will face it together."

Walking out of the dark room, they seemed to hear the whispers and whispers of the evil spirits, and a strong sense of resistance arose in their hearts. Although the road ahead was still full of thorns, they decided to go forward hand in hand and bravely meet the next challenge.
