Chapter 154: Completely Out Of Control
Entering the Ghost Pool again, Jiang Shan’s actions like a desperate fugitive made Shen Bao suspicious.
But due to the pressing situation and the fact that Jiang Shan’s words indeed had no major issues, he chose a more prudent method.
Kill him!
As long as he erased Jiang Shan’s past on the timeline, all worries would be resolved effortlessly.
Because the Ghost Lotus’s attack cannot be avoided, unless there is special life-saving supernatural power, it is a fatal attack.
But the more terrifying the killing method,
The stricter the pattern to trigger the attack.
Like the Peddler, the Wishing Ghost, if they want to kill, they need people’s subjective intent.
But now.
Jiang Shan looked coldly at He Qiong in front of him, who was like a lotus flower with her eyes tightly closed. Now that it had come to this, his expectations in his heart had been fulfilled.
“Cao Yang!”
After shouting loudly, Jiang Shan’s hands suddenly turned blood red, which was the manifestation of Ghost Characters completely covering his hands.
He directly ignored the “selves” surging around him and unhesitatingly grabbed the petal-like, gray-white deathly still palm, then viciously yanked it downward.
Back when the Ghost Characters had not yet fused the Ghost Blood into a puzzle piece, he dared to cover his hands with Ghost Characters and grab ghosts barehanded.
And now the Ghost Characters, with greatly increased terror level, gave Jiang Shan full confidence.
“Can’t pull it off, huh? As expected, it’s about what I thought. But since you’ve decided to attack me, there’s now sufficient medium between us.”
“Shen Bao, do you remember how Sun Yan stole the supernatural power of the Ghost Rain? It doesn’t matter if you’ve forgotten, I’ll make you relive it right now!”
Using all his strength, under the combined effect of the Ghost Characters supernatural power, Jiang Shan discovered that the so-called palm that would fall off with a snap was completely a lie from Shen Bao to make him touch the Ghost Lotus.
His purpose was nothing more than to make him fulfill the Ghost Lotus’s killing pattern, and then launch an attack on him.
“Truly a formidable young man! You’re as mad as that little girl! Since neither of you will let me control the Ghost Rain, since you both want to kill me, then no one lives!”
The eerie voice echoed within the Ghost Pool full of Dead Person Lotuses.
As Cao Yang was carrying the Ghost Mirror and rushing out from the surroundings, he horror-strickenly saw He Qiong, who was highly fibrous and covered with countless dead human limbs all over her body, suddenly open her eyes.
“!”
The moment he saw He Qiong open her eyes, an indescribable unease surged in Cao Yang’s heart.
At the same time,
Among the Hundred Ghosts wandering on the Ghost Street, surging like a black tide, nine ghosts stopped wandering.
Their bodies, completely composed of mud from the fish pond, began to melt in the Ghost Rain, and the stench of dead fish piling up and rotting nonstop on the marketplace began to spread wildly.
Some restriction, or rather suppression, completely dissipated at this moment.
The rain got heavier
At this moment, north of the city on Hero Road in Dachun City.
“I don’t care how many difficulties you have. This matter concerns the lives of millions of people. If we don’t handle it well, not only you and I, but your wife and children, your parents will also die because of this!”
“The arrangements in the west of the city are almost done, right? Have the SMS headquarters send a text message to all residents of Dachun City. I’ve sent you the content of the message; do it immediately!”
Cao Yanhua, who was standing on the street urgently arranging everything, suddenly felt a chill on his face and touched it with his hand:
“Rain?!”
Just as he was puzzled, a torrential downpour like a hole in the sky drenched everyone present.
There was no time for deployment at all, because all of this happened in an instant.
Although his whole body was soaked through and the cold rainwater was gnawing at his body temperature, compared to his body, Cao Yanhua’s heart was now like falling into an ice cellar.
“Jiang Qingwu, go investigate places in Dachun City that aren’t raining right now!”
Looking at the sudden, seemingly out-of-nowhere heavy rain in the sky, Cao Yanhua’s face was extremely grim. He stood frowning in the heavy rain, continuing into the satellite phone:
“All staff of all departments, this is Cao Yanhua. A-level supernatural event Ghost Rain is suspected to be out of control. You should have all seen the information on the Ghost Rain. Now we have no way out.”
“Beware of all ponds, puddles around, even things that can form mirror surfaces. From now on, everyone, including me, do not leave your posts because of the heavy rain, do not evade. I, Cao Yanhua, guarantee here that I will live and die with Dachun City!”
After saying this,
As soon as Cao Yanhua switched channels, Jiang Qingwu’s anxious voice came through:
“Minister Cao, according to the latest information uploaded to the branch system, the entire Dachun City, even the surrounding six cities and forty-one towns, are all experiencing heavy rain!”
Hearing this, Cao Yanhua was stunned in place for only a few seconds. A supernatural event with such a large impact range did not make him panic.
After calm contemplation, he tuned the channel to a special number:
111.
This was the only direct connection channel exclusive to headquarters and the branch.
In major supernatural events that the branch cannot resolve, only Branch Minister Jiang Shan and he, the Branch General Committee Member, can request headquarters support through this channel.
It can be said that,
Unless the supernatural event reaches a crisis that can wipe out a province or endanger tens of millions of lives, this channel will absolutely not be activated.
According to the new supernatural evaluation standards,
Generally, A-level or B-level supernatural events causing harm to citizens have a harm degree number of 2;
The harm degree number of the Starving Ghost Incident in Dachang City was only 4, and this was taking into account the Starving Ghost’s growth potential;
Activating this channel means that the harm degree number of this supernatural event is at least 5!
It will be the most terrifying disaster since the domestic Supernatural Revival!
“Hello, this is Cao Yanhua. I’ve had someone send the file on the Ghost Rain to headquarters’ files. It has now undergone mutation. This supernatural event has already affected half a province.”
“Branch Minister Jiang Shan and Branch Person in Charge Cao Yang are currently missing. The two of them were handling the Ghost Rain Incident. I request headquarters to provide immediate support.”
After saying this to the other end of the phone, Cao Yanhua paused, then continued in a heavy tone:
“If Jiang Shan and the other cannot handle this supernatural event, please have headquarters take over the branch, contain the situation, and ensure public safety.”
According to normal thinking, there was nothing wrong with Cao Yanhua’s actions.
After all, in this position, he could not gamble a province’s safety on trust in one person. Such a thing would never happen.
After the supernatural event codenamed “Ghost Town in the Rain” fully erupted, the eyes of all organizations in the world and most ghost wielders once again converged domestically.
And there is no impenetrable wall in the world,
When part of the intelligence on the Ghost Rain leaked and appeared in the Supernatural Circle, the ghost wielders paying attention to this matter then realized how despairing this supernatural event truly was.
S-level supernatural event,
Another one has appeared domestically.
