Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 228 We hold hands

"The current situation is that because I borrowed Odin's power, you can't do anything to me and Alexis, who is about to be resurrected!"

Facing the Headless Horseman transformed by Cromwell, Charlotte was still hanging upside down on the tree of death and explained the current situation smoothly.

"And conversely, because you are not the headless horseman transformed from a pure war dead, I cannot directly use Odin's power to destroy you!"

As she spoke, Charlotte hung upside down and spread her hands.

"So, do we want to talk?"

"Talk about what, you want?"

"Shall we make a bet?"

Charlotte gave her advice.

"I know that as a headless horseman who can travel between the Yin and Yang realms, you don't want to resurrect Alexis. But why?"

Before Cromwell could answer, Charlotte gave her own answer,

"Because it violates the gate of hell, or the rule of the underworld that only one can enter but cannot exit."

"Yes."

Cromwell nodded.

"Then, I'll bet on whether the power of the Hell Gate can keep Alexis alive!"

Charlotte pointed at the Bansi succubus who was chained by him.

"Bansi is also a ghost. You take her into the gate of hell, but leave one arm outside and Alexis pulls her out."

"It's impossible, drag it out!"

"Then let's make a bet and give it a try!"

Charlotte explained,

"If Alexis can pull her out, it means she has the power and will to live, then you and Hellgate should recognize her "resurrection"."

"……good."

After a moment of silence, Cromwell's Headless Horseman nodded, and then grabbed his head with his hand.

The head was taken off by him again!

He casually threw the skull, which instantly returned to its previous appearance, to Charlotte again.

Then he strode towards Bansi, who was tied up with silver chains.

Bansi didn't speak. She just looked quietly at the Headless Horseman who had regained his headless appearance. There was even an expression similar to relief on his originally expressionless face.

"Bansi is a special kind of ghost between life and death. Unlike other ghosts, she is forced to exist in this special state."

Charlotte's words suddenly rang in Alexis' mind,

"The reason why she can predict death is because of this special state, and when she sheds tears, she is essentially grieving for her immortal self."

"So, whether it's life or death, it's a relief for her?"

Alexis didn't wonder how Charlotte's words reached her mind. Anyway, this guy always had a lot of tricks. She just followed the other person's words and thought about it.

"But according to you, how should I drag her out of the gate of hell? After all, I don't know any magic, and she doesn't have the will to live."

"You don't have to worry about that."

There seemed to be a hint of ridicule in the words Charlotte conveyed,

"Do you think I wouldn't cheat on a bet like this?"

"..."

Alexis suddenly felt that this guy Charlotte was really an honest bastard.

"But why didn't the Headless Horseman ask me just now what to do if Bansi can't be pulled out of the gate of hell? Bet it usually goes both ways, right?"

Faced with this question from Alexis, Charlotte burst into laughter.

"Because he wants to cheat too!"

"..."

This time, Miss Ghost, who was completely confused, was truly speechless.

"Even if he has turned into a dead spirit, he is still Cromwell after all! How can you believe what a politician says? Just like he won't believe my words 80% of the time!"

"..."

So you two are talking nonsense with your eyes open! ?

Alexis felt that she really couldn't keep up with this person's thoughts, so she had no choice but to ask speechlessly,

"Then what should I do?"

"As I said just now, just wait until Bansi is taken into the gate of hell and grab Bansi's hand."

Charlotte didn’t explain too much;

"I will take the opportunity to complete a ritual. After that, your "resurrection" will be completed. Before that, as long as you don't be dragged into the gate of hell by the other party."

"Do you think this is the other party's possible cheating method?"

Alexis guessed what Charlotte meant,

"So, why are you two making this bet? You obviously don't intend to abide by it!?"

"Because if we fight directly, the two of us are afraid of each other, and neither of us is sure of victory!"

Charlotte simply told the truth,

"So, the best way is to change the way of fighting. If I guess correctly and the opponent is not too stupid, we will have an indirect contest through you and Banxi."

"Indirect contest?"

"Yes."

Charlotte gave an example,

"If direct competition is a competition, then indirect competition is probably a tug of war!"

"..."

So Bansi and I are the ropes you use for tug-of-war! ?

Alexis, who completely understood, looked unhappy, but she couldn't object to Charlotte's decision.

"you do not need to worry!"

Probably sensing Alexis' worry, Charlotte comforted her and said,

"We are lucky this time. We met a banshee like Bansi who can predict death. I think we will win!"

"Will Bansi affect the outcome of the "Tug of War"?"

"If I cheat, fine."

"..."

Alexis was also speechless for this director who wanted to cheat whenever it came to making a bet.

She was about to ask some detailed questions in her mind, but she saw the Headless Horseman suddenly grabbed Bansi.

The next moment, a puff of black smoke rose from under him.

The black smoke grew bigger and bigger, and soon turned into a terrifying black horse, automatically picking up the Headless Horseman.

"nightmare!?"

Alexis saw this kind of ghost when River Phoenix turned into the Death Knight.

However, compared to the nightmare that was not powerful at that time, this nightmare is much more powerful now.

Alexis felt chills all over just looking at it.

The nightmare's front hooves suddenly raised, and with a quickening speed, it took the Headless Horseman and Bansi on its back and rushed towards the tree hole under the Tree of Death.

They were like a ball of smoke, and they got into the tree hole in the blink of an eye.

After that, the vines in front of the tree hole gathered quickly and quickly covered the tree hole, leaving only half of the woman's arm exposed.

Just like the ending of "Sleepy Hollow" playing on the big screen in the outside world.

Qiao Qi raised his arm slightly, pointed at Alexis who was standing aside, and then raised his index finger, making a "come here" gesture.

"Is it my turn?"

Alexis walked over tremblingly. She slowly stretched out her hand, trying to grab Bansi's arm that was still outside the tree hole.

The arm suddenly moved and grabbed Alexis' outstretched hand!
