墨書 Inktalez
The sky cracked open, and a purple liquid poured down; countless eyes sprouted from the ground; people melted one after another... 0
 
Suddenly, I heard Lin Xiaoyu's voice: "Xu Rong, don't be afraid. Your eyes can not only open the 'door' but also close it..." 0
 
I closed my eyes, feeling the heat radiating from my Right Eye. 0
 
When I opened my eyes again, I saw that the altar was surrounded by ghosts. They were all victims turned into "Lychees," now holding hands to form a glowing circle. 0
 
"Let's begin," Chen Ming raised his dagger, "Let us welcome the arrival of the new world..." 0
 
At the moment Chen Ming lifted the dagger, my Right Eye suddenly erupted with a dazzling golden light. A powerful energy surged from the depths of my eye, and I felt my consciousness being pulled into a strange space. Here, time seemed to stand still. 0
 
I saw countless golden threads extending from my Right Eye, connecting to every "Lychee" on the altar. These threads were the energy channels sustaining the ritual. 0
 
"Cut them off..." An Ancient Voice echoed in my mind, "This is the ability of the 'Gatekeeper'..." 0
 
I reached out my hand, and those Golden Threads trembled like strings on a musical instrument at my fingertips. With my will, one by one, the threads snapped. 0
 
With each severed thread, a "Lychee" exploded, and its Eyeball dissipated into blue smoke. 0
 
"No!" Chen Ming's voice was filled with terror, "You can't do this!" 0
 
I opened my eyes to see Chen Ming frantically waving his dagger, trying to stop me. But Lin Xiaoyu and the other ghosts had already surrounded him. Their bodies emitted a brilliant white light, forming a cage that trapped Chen Ming within. 0
"Xu Rong, hurry!" Lin Xiaoyu shouted, "Now's our chance!" 0
 
My Right Eye was growing hotter, filled with a golden light. I could see the outline of the "door," slowly closing. But Chen Ming was still struggling, his Right Eye emitting an eerie red glow as he tried to maintain the ritual. 0
 
Suddenly, Lin Xiaoyu made a startling decision. She transformed into a beam of white light and shot directly into Chen Ming's body. He let out a scream as his Right Eye exploded, black liquid gushing out. 0
 
"Xu Rong, remember..." Lin Xiaoyu's voice echoed in my mind, "Your eyes are not only the key to the 'door,' but also the barrier protecting both worlds..." 0
 
Her voice grew weaker until it transformed into a beam of white light that entered my Right Eye. I felt a warm energy flowing within, and the golden light in my vision became even brighter. 0
 
Taking advantage of the moment, Chen Ming broke free from the ghost's grasp, clutching his bleeding eye socket as he staggered backward. "You will regret this..." he gritted through clenched teeth. "The 'door' will open eventually, and when it does..." 0
 
Before he could finish his sentence, he dissolved into a cloud of black mist and vanished. One by one, the Crystal Bowls on the altar shattered, and the entire basement began to collapse. 0
 
I stumbled out of the basement just as the structure behind me crumbled with a deafening roar. When I reached safety, I realized my Right Eye no longer hurt; instead, it felt strangely empowered. 0
 
I closed my eyes and could clearly sense Lin Xiaoyu's presence. Her soul had merged with my Right Eye, granting me greater abilities. Now, I could not only see ghosts but also communicate with them and even borrow their powers. 0
 
But I knew this was far from over. 0
