Chapter 55: The Final Ghost Characters
Chen Yue calmly analyzed everything happening before her eyes. During her days living in the Little Qiang Club, she had learned a lot about Ghost Wielders.
For example: Every time a Ghost Wielder used the Ghost’s Ability, they were indirectly killing themselves. The moment of Fierce Ghost Revival was the Ghost Wielder’s death.
As well as things about Ghost Domain and so on.
Therefore, through this act of using Ghost Domain to bring herself here, Chen Yue determined that Jiang Shan was definitely still alive at this moment.
“Although he is not alive like a normal person, he should at least still have consciousness.”
In just a few short seconds, Chen Yue, who was not a Ghost Wielder, analyzed Jiang Shan’s current condition thoroughly.
Half an hour ago, when she saw that unrestrained Black Haze, she had already guessed that the Fierce Ghost in Jiang Shan’s body was about to revive. Otherwise, with Jiang Shan’s personality, he would never squander his life like this.
But she really hadn’t expected the situation to have reached this point.
At a glance,
His body was already deader than dead, the Fierce Ghost seemed to be reviving, perhaps Jiang Shan still had some consciousness, but given the current situation, there was little he could do.
So he had called her here.
“Jiang Shan! I can do something”
Just as Chen Yue was about to run toward Jiang Shan, a stinging pain on her arm made her stop in place.
This stinging pain was different from the pain caused by illness or external injuries; it was patterned, as if carrying some kind of reminder signal.
“This pain is coming from the arm with the Ghost Characters!”
With that thought, Chen Yue hurriedly took off all her outer clothes, leaving only her undergarment on.
No shyness, no fear of exposure—at this moment, she disregarded it all.
The moment she saw Jiang Shan’s corpse, she knew:
Jiang Shan still had a chance to survive; otherwise, he wouldn’t put her in danger too. He had brought her here because there was something very important for her to do.
So the stinging pain from the Ghost Characters at this moment meant Jiang Shan had important information to tell her.
This information concerned Jiang Shan’s life and death!
Now, Chen Yue could not allow herself any mistakes. If she couldn’t see the Ghost Characters clearly because of her clothes and delayed things, leading to Jiang Shan’s death,
She would suffer in pain for the rest of her life.
After stopping, Chen Yue held her arm in front of her, waiting for the Ghost Characters’ Changes.
She saw the tattoo-like Ghost Characters begin to crawl across Chen Yue’s arm, the flesh-tearing pain making her whole body tremble uncontrollably.
But even so,
Her gaze never left her arm. Even though her lips were bitten until they bled, she still stared intently at the Ghost Characters’ Changes.
Because of the special nature of Ghost Characters, they could spread and attach, but to keep them inside someone, they had to be placed under the skin.
So when the Ghost Characters changed, that pain would inevitably follow.
“When my face turns black, immediately press my face with your hand.”
After several seconds of evolution, the Ghost Characters finally formed the first sentence on Chen Yue’s arm.
“Face turning black refers to the black on the body?”
Upon receiving the information, Chen Yue’s expression changed slightly. She raised her head and began to carefully observe Jiang Shan’s body.
Apart from parts of his body surface being covered by viscous Blood.
Chen Yue discovered that most of Jiang Shan’s body showed a weird black color, different from the black of skin pigmentation—it was the flesh and blood making up his body that had an inky blackness from the bones.
This feeling was very weird, just like when she saw that Ghost in the Ghost Tree Forest back then; just one glance made one shudder.
Jiang Shan’s head and body showed very obvious differences even without close inspection.
Although his chin was also starting to turn the inky black of his body, his face was mostly the pale white of a dead person.
Unlike that ghost-like body,
At least Chen Yue could tell this was a “human” head.
“So what Jiang Shan conveyed to her through the Ghost Characters was: When his head turns like his body, she should press his face with these hands?”
Chen Yue wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. To confirm her guess was correct, she shouted loudly toward the corpse:
“Jiang Shan! Face turning black means your face gets assimilated by the blackness like your body, right? If yes, remind me with the Ghost Characters!”
As soon as the words left her mouth, Chen Yue felt a slight stinging pain from her arm. She felt a slight joy in her heart—her guess was correct.
After the slight stinging pain ended, the familiar intense pain struck again.
A few seconds later, the Ghost Characters formed the second sentence on her arm:
“Doing this might kill you, and I won’t be able to help you afterward.”
Chen Yue gritted her teeth; the pain made her voice fluctuate:
“I’d be dead without you. Why say that again? I told my mom about it, she said people should know Gratitude and repay kindness. Even if I die, she would”
Then, as if thinking of something, her voice carried a hint of loneliness as she continued:
“Never mind, hurry up, don’t dawdle.”
Hearing Chen Yue’s words, Jiang Shan fell silent for a moment. He glanced at the speed of the Black Blood eroding the Ghost Characters—indeed, he couldn’t waste more time on these matters.
The next moment,
An intense pain transmitted from her arm, madly stimulating Chen Yue’s nerves, feeling like countless tattoo guns operating at full power on her arm.
“Mm”
This time the sensation was even stronger than the previous two, because this time, all the remaining Ghost Characters in Chen Yue’s body had to gather on her hand.
Because of the last Dead Face Ghost incident, she was very sensitive to sounds. To prevent triggering some Ghost’s Killing Pattern again, even though the pain made her sweat profusely, she clenched her teeth and kept her mouth shut to make as little sound as possible.
“Jiang Shan’s head, why is it red?!”
While enduring the pain and walking toward Jiang Shan, Chen Yue suddenly noticed his head was crawling with dense, crimson Ghost Characters. From afar, it looked like some evil cult ritual, making one horrified.
Gradually, the pain faded.
The Ghost Characters finally reached Chen Yue’s hand; now her hand was also extremely crimson. She stood by Jiang Shan’s corpse, quietly waiting for the changes to occur.
Seeing Chen Yue fully prepared, the uneasy weight in Jiang Shan’s heart finally settled.
The Ghost Characters in his mind had been mostly eroded by the Black Blood; soon, the Ghost Characters in his body would be completely controlled by the Blood Ghost and fused into the Puzzle Piece.
At that moment, all the danger would fully erupt.
Life or death,
It all depended on this final desperate gamble!
Jiang Shan and Chen Yue waited tensely for the final signal.
“It’s coming!” Jiang Shan’s heart tightened.
His head was completely eroded by Black Blood, that inky blackness now almost identical to his body’s color.
This meant that at this moment, the incomplete Ghost Characters were fully controlled by the Blood Ghost!
It wasn’t just the Ghost Characters being controlled; his whole body being assimilated meant Jiang Shan’s body was now under the Blood Ghost’s control.
Now the Blood Ghost had a human body. Although the corpse lay stiffly on the ground, as if in Deathly Stillness.
But Jiang Shan knew this was definitely not good news.
What would a Ghost do with a human body?
At the same time,
The moment Jiang Shan lost control of the Ghost Characters, the Black Haze visibly grew denser, and faces of dead people with various expressions quietly emerged from the Darkness.
Originally under Jiang Shan’s control, the Dead Face Ghost’s Ghost Domain covered only half of Dachang City, but now, all of Dachang City and its surrounding urban and rural areas were enveloped in Black Haze.
The Dead Face Ghost had revived!
