Chapter 176 Catching a Water Spirit

Layton did not know what to say. "What's our mission today, Mr. Macneil?"

Blake said, "We're going to lure someone out. They've seen Lilly and I before, so we can't show

ourselves. You're going to lure it out."

"I remember you're pretty good at swimming, aren't you? You've done an underwater battle before."

Layton nodded his head. This was all not a problem.

But…

"Has that person seen me before? He asked solemnly.

Which enemy was this? Was it a prisoner on the loose?

Mr. Macneil was clearly so concerned!

Yet Blake stopped short, before saying. "No, they haven't seen you."

Layton was speechless.

So what was the point of him dressing up like this!

As if he could guess what Layton was thinking, Blake rattled off some nonsense off the top of his head

at once. "This outfit's to protect you. It'll ward off evil spirits."

Layton thought to himself, Thanks, so so much.

The ferry puttered off onto the river, spinning around slowly on the water.

"What are we going to do now?" Layton covered his face.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Blake was comfortably reclined on the couch, his arms spread out and his legs crossed.

"See that window?" he said. "Open it, and stick your head out."

The ferry had been designed for the river tour. The second floor was the dock, with comfortable sofas.

In the cabin was a minibar, with a window made of glass that could be opened.

Layton opened the window, and stuck his head out.

Lilly took off her shoes and climbed onto the sofa, copying the way Blake was sitting with her limbs

stretched out. "Then you need to stick your arms out, and play with the water."

Layton was baffled by it.

Crossdressing, sticking his head out of a window, and now playing with the water.

Why did something feel strangely off?

Whatever. A mission was a mission, and Layton was on one.

The window was quite a distance from the water, and he had no choice but to lean out of the window to

get to it.

Thankfully he had pretty long hands, for how tall he was.

Lilly thumbed away on her phone, taking picture after picture of Layton before saying, "Say, 'Come

play, baby!"

Everyone on TV said that.

Anthony smirked.

Blake twitched in amusement. "Don't shout too loudly, darling."

And so the lot of them sat sipping their coffees as Layton toiled away by the window. The wind had

messed up his silky hair, and his hand patted the water half-heartedly.

What a beautiful sight he made.

Just then, Layton felt something.

He frowned. Water weeds?

But it was very thin and slippery, and felt more like hair!

The next second, he felt as if his wrist was being grabbed harshly and yanked out!

Layton was elated.

The bait had worked?

Who the hell was this? They were pretty good with underwater combat, weren't they?

It was impressive enough that they could hold their breath for so long, and they were so strong too!

Layton smirked coldly, and was just about to yank the force dragging him down up.

Yet Blake's voice rang behind him, "It's here! Layton, hold yourself down!"

Layton was just about to say that he had this in the bag, he was experienced enough.

Yet the next second, he saw a pale white hand sticking out of the water to grab his other hand and pull

it as well.

Layton fell into the water with a splash!

Layton was wearing a red dress as he fell, and a piercing cry rang through the air, "Help… someone's

fallen into the water…"

He had quite a sharp eye, and was able to open his eyes underwater.

Layton flipped around to grab the person's hands instead, yanking harshly to see who it was.

The sight that greeted him was a pale face drained of all color with its eyes upturned!

Next to it was a young girl, staring daggers at him as well.

Layton thought, What the f*ck, these were some big water weeds!

Layton was not as calm of a person as Blake was. The shock made him swallow a mouthful of water,

and before he could blink twice the two 'people' had dragged him to the bottom of the water.

At the very last second, the necklace he was wearing emitted a faint glow as Blake's voice rang

through the air,

"Get her, Layton! Don't let her escape!"

Suddenly, his feet were grabbed.

Layton grabbed both wrists at once, yanking hard. With a loud splash—

Two bodies were dragged out of the water, landing onto the boat with a thump!

Before Layton could react, his vision darkened at the corners and he fainted.

Lilly clutched the amulet, crying out loudly, "Ha!"

The wooden sword attached to the amulet flew out, nailing the two corpses who were trying to escape

to the boat.

The gesture scared the living lights out of Edward and the rest.

They had only thought they were dealing with 'spirits' here. Which meant that they wouldn't be able to

see said spirits, merely watching Lilly catch them.

But these two were clearly not spirits, but bodies.

Lilly remembered what her Master had said. She was not strong enough yet, and shouldn't take care of

spirits on her own.

But… if she didn't put these water spirits to rest, her amulet wasn't going to last long enough to nail

them to the both. Her Master wouldn't make it back in time.

She remembered her Master's words. Her red bracelet was strong enough to repel.

Yes, that would be enough, Lilly thought to herself.

Lilly got closer to the two water spirits, her hands on her waist as she lifted her chin. "Come at me,

come on!"

Her expression was nothing but arrogant….

Blake and Anthony were speechless.

The body's eyes rolled backwards, and began to howl, "Hoooo…. Hoooo….."

This wretched little girl again!

One of the corpses seemed particularly angered, springing up and pouncing on Lilly!

Blake got a fright. "Lilly!"

Lilly instinctively put her hands in front of her, and a bright ray of red light burst out…

The corpse was hit by the red light, and was flung away. The spirit in the corpse was also drawn out,

howling and shrieking.

The second the spirits were drawn out, the two corpses began to emit a foul smell. They began to rot

and decay, quickly turning to two disgusting puddles.

Edward could hardly contain his shock. "Did you get them?"

Gosh, his niece was amazing!

Lilly said, "Not yet!"

She clutched the wooden sword with the amulet attached to it, rushing over!

"Take that! Die!"

She flailed the sword around, thrashing about.

Without the amulet holding them down, the water spirits were about to escape.

Lilly shouted, "Life is unexpected! You're going to get it, you stinky bad guys!"

With a loud "pfft"...

The spirits were sent flying by a fart.

Anthony, Blake and Edmund thought, Did, did that actually work?

Before they could return to their senses, Lilly could be seen throwing out her jar of souls. "Come on…"

The harem spirit flew out.

The three spirits had been in the middle of a game of rummy in the jar, and the harem spirit was just

about to lure the weakling spirit into joining when she was flung out.

She saw the two resentful spirits pouncing her way, and did not think twice before sending out a harsh

slap.

Resentful spirits were no match for malignant spirits.

The resentful spirit with the sharpest cry was held down by the harem spirit, unable to move.

"Hooo… Hooo!!!" she struggled in a fit of fury.

All of a sudden, the spirit of the girl next to her fell to the ground on her knees and sobbed, "Please, let

my mother go…"
