Chapter 264: Instant Refinement
Eleven minutes after entering the dormitory building, Jiang Shan and the Ghost Messenger’s race to seize the person had reached its most dangerous moment.
Even though everyone had successfully regrouped with Wang Bin before the Ghost Messenger could kill him.
However, Liu San discovered in terror that even though they had rescued all the Ghost Wielders they could in the dormitory building.
The number of fierce ghosts suppressed by the Ghost Messenger still exceeded the number of fierce ghosts they wielded.
A sense of despair and bitterness instantly enveloped everyone’s hearts.
Listening to Wang Bin’s tragic wails, Huang Ziya’s hands trembled uncontrollably from fear.
At this moment, her gaze was no longer fixed on Wang Bin, but looked towards Jiang Shan with hope and supplication, as if he could take action to save everyone at any second.
“Hold each other’s hands tightly! Don’t let go under any circumstances!”
After handing over the three suppressed and silent fierce ghosts in his hands to two unknown Ghost Wielders, Jiang Shan immediately rushed towards the Ghost Messenger’s position.
“What is he doing? Catching ghosts?”
“Jiang Shan is crazy! He’s going to kill Wang Bin?!”
In everyone’s terrified gaze, Jiang Shan, who had rushed to Wang Bin’s side, said nothing. He thrust his hands, which looked as if they had just been pulled from fresh blood, crimson, into Wang Bin’s head.
The next second,
The man who had been screaming and struggling moments before immediately showed no reaction. Only the white and red blood plasma flowing down his cheeks announced his death to everyone.
Wang Bin was dead,
He wasn’t killed by the Ghost Messenger, but by Jiang Shan for no apparent reason!
Seeing this, everyone’s hearts pounded. None of the professionally trained Huang Ziya and others understood Jiang Shan’s actions.
Only Liu San paused slightly before quickly understanding the reason behind his actions.
“This ghost cannot be taken by the Ghost Messenger no matter what, I’m sorry, brother.”
Looking at the fierce ghost in his hand, which continuously emitted a chilling aura and resembled a nose, Jiang Shan’s eyes were incredibly cold.
During the process of suppressing fierce ghosts, he had already learned all the information about Wang Bin from branch intelligence:
His codename was Ghost Nose. With this distinctive codename, Jiang Shan didn’t need to guess to know the location of that ghost within Wang Bin.
And killing to extract the ghost was a last resort.
In the current situation, Jiang Shan had no time to discuss plans with anyone.
Faced with the current Ghost Messenger, he was the only one who could change the tide of the battle.
Based on the current situation, it could be deduced that:
Even though Wang Bin was now considered part of the group by the Ghost Messenger, the number of suppressed fierce ghosts already exceeded the total number of fierce ghosts wielded and carried by everyone.
Although it appeared that only Wang Bin was currently being attacked by the Ghost Messenger,
In reality,
Once Wang Bin died, the fierce ghosts within him would inevitably be suppressed by the Ghost Messenger, and by then, the number of fierce ghosts the Ghost Messenger could suppress would be even greater than that of the group.
Then Jiang Shan wouldn’t even have a chance to fight.
One person dies,
For the illusory survival of many.
This act was selfish and cold-blooded, but Jiang Shan didn’t want to defend himself, because he had indeed done it, regardless of any reasons or objectives.
He had no intention of debating with the secular world whether Wang Bin deserved to die or not.
Because such questions would never end.
People are always different from each other.
Compared to the seemingly peaceful and perfect actions of a certain woman in some world;
He would rather choose to be so cold-blooded as to use the lives of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of innocent people to guarantee his own, society’s, and even humanity’s greater interests.
In his eyes,
There were no so-called innocents.
In this world where fierce ghosts are born and death is as common as eating and sleeping, human lives are so cheap.
As for why he didn’t make a more “humane” choice.
It was because foolish, saintly people in this world did not have the ability to make such choices.
More likely, it was because their abilities wouldn’t support them living long enough to have the opportunity to choose.
“Rather than this ghost being suppressed by the Ghost Messenger, it’s better that I suppress it. Currently, although there is a gap in numbers between us and the Ghost Messenger and the ghosts, it is not too large.”
“Dajing City is already overrun with a hundred ghosts, and the human world is like hell. In the short time to come, Dajing City will absolutely not be able to gather such a large team of Ghost Wielders. If the Ghost Messenger is not dealt with now, there will be no chance once it grows stronger.”
“Inside the Ghost Messenger is a Coffin Nail forged by Wang Xiao Ming. Although it appears to unconditionally suppress three fierce ghosts, its terror level is not high. In the original work, the Ghost Hand merged with the Fake Coffin Nail could only suppress one ghost within Fang Shiming.”
“And these three ghosts are my only breakthrough. Gambling might not win, but not gambling will definitely mean death!”
Having thought of everything before taking action, Jiang Shan’s mind was free from any interference with his decisions.
The second after the nose ghost was successfully suppressed by ghost characters.
Jiang Shan was seen holding the silent nose ghost with one hand, while the other hand went straight into the darkness that could not be seen.
“Got you!”
After confirming the feel in his hand, Jiang Shan did not hesitate at all.
Because he had estimated the height of the ghost messenger beforehand, he confirmed his hand was gripping its neck, then he exerted all his strength and suddenly pulled upwards.
In the horrified gazes of everyone,
a corpse,
no, a ghost was facing Jiang Shan at this moment. It looked like a normal person, wearing a tattered shirt that was dirty and black, with traces of thick bloodstains.
The bloodstains were rotten and emitted a smell like that of a corpse.
At the same time,
the ghost messenger’s exposed hand was stiff and black, and on its feet were a pair of bright red, weird embroidered women’s shoes.
The current ghost messenger was like a corpse that had been placed somewhere for a long time, in a state of impending decay but not yet rotten.
“This is my only chance, Wei Jing, you really made me search for you.”
Jiang Shan looked at Wei Jing, who no longer resembled a human, with a cold expression, his gaze sweeping up and down madly.
He was searching,
searching for the coffin nail that was artificially created.
“Found it.”
Suddenly.
Jiang Shan saw a black mark on the ghost’s shoulder. This mark penetrated deep into the cold corpse, as if inserted into its heart along the shoulder.
However,
the shape of the coffin nail had disappeared, and the black mark left behind had already merged with the ghost’s flesh and blood, indistinguishable from each other.
“Damn it, I need to control a ghost similar to a ghost hand too, otherwise, it’s too inconvenient when handling ghosts.” The moment he saw the coffin nail, Jiang Shan’s eyes flickered.
Then,
his once ruddy complexion suddenly turned pale, and his features began to blur, as if a human face that had been dead for a long time had grown on his face.
The next moment,
Jiang Shan bit towards the location of the coffin nail, tearing off a large piece of black flesh and blood.
This marked the end of the collision between the ghosts.
