Chapter 53: S-class Supernatural Event “black Haze”
The 20th minute of the Black Haze’s spread
Yang Jian, who was sleeping in Jiang Yan’s single apartment at this moment, instantly woke up in shock. He felt the flesh around his Ghost Eye begin to tremble uncontrollably, and even the Ghost Eye was somewhat unwilling to open.
“The Ghost Eye is in Fear!”
Yang Jian’s expression darkened, and his gaze fell outside the window. He saw the thick, boundless Black Haze enveloping Dachang City!
“The ghost inside Jiang Shan has resurrected?!”
This thought crossed Yang Jian’s mind the moment he saw the Black Haze. He no longer had any mind to continue sleeping,
Looking at the terrifying smog as black as ink on this side, Yang Jian knew clearly in his heart,
If the ghost inside Jiang Shan had truly fully resurrected, then judging by the scope of this Ghost Domain, it was at least an S-level Supernatural Event.
Not to mention the Ghost Characters that could appear anywhere at any time.
If these two ghosts resurrected together, without any accidents, Dachang City would become a dead zone in just a few days.
Thinking of this, Yang Jian felt his scalp go numb. He immediately woke Jiang Yan and prepared to leave Dachang City—the sooner, the better!
At least escape to a safe place before the ghost inside Jiang Shan fully resurrected.
Just as Yang Jian packed everything and was about to drive away, the Satellite Phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
It was a call from Headquarters.
Yang Jian didn’t even look at it and continued driving on his own. He planned to pick up Zhang Wei with Jiang Yan. He couldn’t care about others, but he still wanted to save Zhang Wei.
“Yang Jian, someone named Liu Xiaoyu says she wants to find you.” Shortly after the car started moving, Jiang Yan suddenly said to Yang Jian.
“Hang up. Tell her I won’t handle any matters, and I can’t handle this one either. Let Headquarters find someone else,” Yang Jian said coldly.
Jiang Yan relayed Yang Jian’s words exactly to the other end of the phone, but as she listened to Liu Xiaoyu’s next words, her expression grew increasingly terrified, her voice even trembling as she said to Yang Jian:
“Yang Jian, listen to this, listen.”
Jiang Yan turned on the speakerphone, and then Liu Xiaoyu’s anxious and urgent voice came from the phone:
“Yang Jian! You can’t leave. Jiang Shan’s Ghost Domain has already enveloped half of Dachang City. Ghost Wielders in Dachang City have called Headquarters—they can’t escape from the Black Haze. Headquarters has dispatched International Criminal Police from the nearest location; the first batch has already entered the Black Haze.”
Immediately after, without pausing, Liu Xiaoyu continued:
“Headquarters wants you to rush to the location of Jiang Shan’s resurrection. Not just you—all Ghost Wielders in Dachang City and the dispatched International Criminal Police will cooperate with you and Zhao Kaiming’s action. The requirement is to completely detain the two ghosts inside Jiang Shan. Captain Zhao said the price for taking action will satisfy you. I’ve already sent Jiang Shan’s address to your Mobile Phone.”
Hearing this, Yang Jian’s expression instantly froze, and he replied calmly:
“I refuse. I can’t solve the ghost inside Jiang Shan. Going there would be suicide, and whether I can leave or not isn’t up to you—I’ll try it myself.”
With that, Yang Jian hung up the phone, looked grimly at the address Liu Xiaoyu sent on his Mobile Phone, and then drove toward the outskirts of Dachang City.
“Can’t get out because the Ghost Domain is spreading? From the photo Liu Xiaoyu sent, the boundary of the Black Haze is roughly right here.”
Yang Jian didn’t go to pick up Zhang Wei. Instead, he drove to the boundary closest to the Black Haze. He wanted to test if he could really leave Jiang Shan’s Ghost Domain.
“The Ghost Eyes can overlap—maybe they’ll produce a new change?”
This time, under the threat of Jiang Shan’s Dead Face Ghost’s Ghost Domain, Yang Jian tried overlapping his Ghost Eyes ahead of time.
When two Ghost Eyes overlapped to activate the Ghost Domain, he discovered the change in his Ghost Eye Ghost Domain. But even so, Yang Jian’s Ghost Domain still couldn’t break through the Black Haze.
When he tried overlapping three Ghost Eyes, the signs of the Ghost Eye’s resurrection instantly made him stop.
“Can’t leave? It seems Jiang Shan hasn’t died yet—he’s making his final struggle.”
From Liu Xiaoyu’s words, Yang Jian inferred that Jiang Shan might not be dead yet.
Otherwise, the Ghost Domain wouldn’t exist in a state where one could enter but not exit.
Yang Jian frowned as he looked at the positioning in the photo. He didn’t want to go on this action codenamed “Black Haze,” but now he had no choice.
Because Yang Jian knew that right now, Jiang Shan could still send out a distress signal to everyone, getting them to detain the Fierce Ghost inside him ahead of time. If the detention succeeded, this S-level event would be nipped in the cradle.
If Jiang Shan really died, then this Fierce Ghost inside him would fully erupt, putting Yang Jian in an even worse position.
So for this trip, he couldn’t escape.
Those who made the same choice as Yang Jian included all the Ghost Wielders trapped in the Black Haze.
They all knew the severity of the situation. This action concerned everyone’s lives, so at this moment, they were all racing madly toward Jiang Shan’s location.
Just as the Ghost Wielders were rushing over,
Jiang Shan, whose only existence was his consciousness, felt more terrified than anyone else in his heart, because he discovered that the Blood Ghost, which had been silent for twenty minutes, had actually walked to the side of his corpse.
Of course, the Blood Ghost didn’t like Jiang Shan’s corpse.
For such terrifying Fierce Ghosts, their actions always carried strong intent,
Such as searching for Puzzle Pieces.
Under the Ghost Domain Perception of Jiang Shan’s Ghost Domain, he terrifyingly discovered that the Blood Ghost had inserted its hand, full of viscous Ghost Blood, into his own body.
Weird Black Blood began to rampage inside Jiang Shan’s body, seemingly searching for something.
Jiang Shan knew it was searching for the Ghost Characters in his mind.
As early as ten-plus minutes ago,
To prevent his death from causing the Dead Face Ghost to resurrect, Jiang Shan stopped all Ghost Wielders from leaving the Ghost Domain and expanded the Ghost Domain’s range to the maximum as much as possible.
His goal was simple: to escalate the situation and get Headquarters to gather all Ghost Wielders to detain the Dead Face Ghost inside him.
The Blood Ghost that appeared from the Ghost Blood didn’t cause large-scale casualties in the Original Work. Through the prophecy where the Blood Ghost seized the Ghost Characters, Jiang Shan determined that this ghost would most likely leave here after controlling the Ghost Characters to search for other Fierce Ghost Puzzle Pieces.
But this was just a guess.
As for whether the Blood Ghost could control the Dead Face Ghost, Jiang Shan guessed it was absolutely impossible.
For ghosts that constantly seek Puzzle Pieces and desire wisdom, the Dead Face Ghost is their taboo.
After all these considerations, Jiang Shan made this move.
He already knew there were at least sixteen Ghost Wielders in the Ghost Domain. If he really couldn’t reverse the deadly situation, then before dying, he would transfer all the Ghost Wielders and his own head together.
Away from the Urban Area, away from the Blood Ghost.
Although the Dead Face Ghost was very terrifying, it hadn’t fully developed yet. With a dozen-plus Ghost Wielders plus Yang Jian and Zhao Kaiming, there was still a high probability of detaining it.
This was the best way to handle the Fierce Ghost inside him before his death.
Now,
Jiang Shan was waiting.
He had to bet!
Bet whether the Restart could really affect this ghost.
The reason for waiting was that Restart could only affect himself, so he needed to activate the Restart ability when the Blood Ghost had maximally fused with his body.
He wanted to maximize the returns on this bet with his life!
Thanks to the brothers’ generosity—I got rewards and votes yesterday, it felt so good hahahahaha.
Thanks, brothers!
Going on shelves tomorrow, hope for lots of support from the brothers!
