Chapter 141: The Immortal Man
Hearing these people’s words, Jiang Shan’s gaze turned cold.
The situation here seemed far more complex than he had thought, and the group of people in front of him seemed to possess information he was not yet aware of.
“Minister Jiang, my name is Hong Ze. I’ve cooperated with the headquarters’ person in charge before. Calm down first. These people carry the Wang Family clock’s curse. You can’t kill them!”
The chilling sensation from his body made the man wearing sunglasses break out in cold sweat. Ignoring the malicious gazes around him, he began silently retreating toward the other side.
“Hong Ze, I knew you were a traitorous beast!” A man among these people immediately cursed angrily.
“Beast? Heh, who doesn’t know what you people have done in Dadong City? Killing people, seizing wealth, colluding with foreign organizations to hunt down domestic ghost wielders. Don’t think I don’t know. Because I didn’t accept that curse, you’ve always excluded me, even wanting to kill me.”
Hearing himself being cursed, Hong Ze first glanced at Jiang Shan, whose expression was calm.
Although he had become a ghost wielder not long ago,
After doing sales for so many years, he clearly understood one thing:
Pies don’t fall from the sky. If the person giving you the pie is rich, powerful, and influential, what they want is your life.
Although it’s also possible they’re after some very “special” thing of yours.
But for ghost wielders lacking even instinct,
The probability of that is almost negligible.
Seeing Jiang Shan’s look of watching the show, Hong Ze instantly understood something, and then he continued speaking:
“Li Hanfeng, if I remember correctly, the reason you became a ghost wielder was because when you encountered the ghost back then, you threw your girlfriend of seven years to it, using her to divert the ghost’s attention before you controlled that ghost, right? You call me a beast? I think you’re the real beast!”
“Minister Jiang, I report to you that there’s an organization in Dachun City called ‘Freedom Fighters.’ He’s the president of that organization. That organization is the base he contacts abroad for a ghost wielder who seems to be called Missionary!”
“Now the ghosts in our bodies are suppressed by the Ghost Pool. They’re just a group of ordinary people, but you must be careful. They can still restart.”
“Hong Ze! I fuck your mother!”
Before Hong Ze could finish speaking, the man named Li Hanfeng standing in front of him was filled with anger on his face.
After cursing angrily to interrupt him, his eyes turned ruthless. Holding a dagger flashing with silver light, he charged straight at Hong Ze.
Jiang Shan observed this small team on the verge of infighting with an almost mocking attitude.
He was very curious why this man wearing sunglasses suddenly turned traitor and was so obsequious to him.
From what some people in this small team had said earlier, they seemed to have some unique life-saving method, so they didn’t care much about the threat of the ghost characters in his body to them.
However, none of this mattered much to Jiang Shan. He had plenty of ways to kill people, and sometimes living was more painful than death.
Apart from that,
There was one point in what the man wearing sunglasses said that caught Jiang Shan’s attention:
“Dadong City, immortal?”
“So are these people related to Wang Chaling?”
And at this moment,
Hong Ze, drenched in sweat, was continuously dodging the dagger Li Hanfeng was stabbing at him.
In this Ghost Pool that could unconditionally suppress ghosts, ghost wielders like them who had controlled only one ghost were no different from ordinary people.
Moreover, not only were the ghosts suppressed, but even the supernatural power existing in the ghost wielders’ bodies would disappear.
This was the reason Wang Chaling didn’t allow seriously resurrected ghost wielders to come here.
At the same time Li Hanfeng went to kill Hong Ze,
The remaining five people, whose bodies were wrapped in ghost characters, tacitly took out knives from their prepared backpacks. Their eyes filled with killing intent, they charged madly toward Jiang Shan.
From their gazes, it was clear:
Once these people got close to Jiang Shan, they would definitely hack him into mincemeat without hesitation.
The crowd’s running made this “serene and beautiful” pond lively, with countless “dead person lotus flowers” swaying in the wind like souls peeking into the present world.
Weird yet serene.
At a certain moment,
Li Hanfeng, who was chasing Hong Ze, seemed to notice something. He suddenly stopped.
“Let’s see how many times you can use the ghost’s ability. Hahahahahaha.”
The terrifying supernatural sensation from the characters on his body like ghost paintings made Li Hanfeng know that Jiang Shan’s ghost was about to attack him. He looked at Jiang Shan with disdain and burst into loud laughter.
He, cursed by the pendulum clock and Wang Chaling, was “immortal”!
Not to mention dying once,
Even if he died a hundred times, a thousand times!
He and the people in his small team could all reappear in this world unscathed.
Li Hanfeng standing in place and the five people running suddenly stiffened like corpses in an instant. Their faces turned pale, pupils unfocused, and they fell stiffly into the pond water as if dead for a long time.
“Plop~!”
“Plop~! Plop~!”
The successive splashing sounds made Hong Ze’s heart tighten. He looked fearfully at the ghost characters crawling all over his body.
After the sounds stopped,
Realizing he wasn’t dead, Hong Ze’s lips trembled uncontrollably from tension. He stood in place like a statue, panting heavily.
Hong Ze was really afraid Jiang Shan wouldn’t leave him alive and would use the ghost attack to take him and those people out in one wave.
So when he first saw Jiang Shan and the ghost characters floating on the pond water, he unhesitatingly turned traitor and exposed everyone’s information.
Not for any other reason,
Just because he hadn’t accepted that weird clock’s curse and Wang Chaling’s so-called “blessing.”
In other words,
Once he was attacked by the ghost characters, death would be real death.
He couldn’t “rebirth immortal”!
“Hm?!”
Just as Jiang Shan calmly looked at the “corpses” floating in the pond,
A faint clock sound suddenly rang from all directions in this Ghost Park. The weird clock sound made his expression change.
The name of an extremely weird item appeared in his mind:
“Wang Family Restart Pendulum!”
Only to see the ghost wielders’ corpses in the pond that Jiang Shan had just killed disappearing one by one.
Even the ghosts in their bodies disappeared along with them.
As if erased by something even more terrifying.
As expected,
This group of ghost wielders who had controlled only one ghost was restarting!
When did restarting become such a commonplace ability?
One must know that even among the monsters of Republic of China ghost wielders, not many could achieve restarting.
But now,
Qin Xi, who controlled two ghosts, could restart, and these who controlled one ghost could also restart?
At this time,
A thought suddenly occurred to Jiang Shan that even startled him:
This world’s Wang Chaling had successfully found that pendulum clock in his family’s old house, the one with a restart time of up to thirty minutes and no usage cost!
He seemed to have also used some unknown method to make the pendulum clock’s curse not only restart within range, but even apply it to ordinary ghost wielders regardless of distance!
Here I made some fan creation for Wang Chaling, strengthening him a bit. It’s not quite the same as the original work.
Hope brothers support more!
Gratitude~
