Chapter 70: Farewell To The Reform Society, Instant Kill
The dark Ghost Domain enveloped the entire Xijiang University.
But strangely, the pedestrians on the street seemed unable to see that eerie sky.
“This range of Ghost Domain, this……”
At the dark boundary, Yu Lin and Manyue stood on the pedestrian street, gazing at that deep and dim territory.
“I now know why Zhang Han said the situation wasn’t good.”
Yu Lin said with a serious expression.
Manyue’s eyes were cautious:
“Xijiang University’s campus area is not small. If nothing unexpected happens, the entire university is enveloped inside.”
Xijiang University, as a key university in Da Jiang City, had a campus area and faculty resources no less than Wudaokou College in Da Jing City.
It even surpassed it in campus area.
Wudaokou College’s area was only 9.4 square kilometers.
While Xijiang University was three or four times that.
This was just an estimate; the exact amount was unclear.
It was said that Xijiang University was still under expansion.
“The area is too large, so how many students are there?”
Yu Lin was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked.
Manyue’s heart sank as she looked at the university enveloped by the Ghost Domain, her heart trembling.
“I remember, today seems to be Saturday or Sunday.”
Yu Lin: “Wednesday.”
“……”
“……”
The two fell into a long silence.
“I want to go in first.”
Manyue clenched her fist.
Yu Lin instantly looked at Manyue upon hearing this, asking in astonishment:
“Go in to die?”
“Zhang Han, who controls three ghosts, said it’s trouble. The two of us together can at most match Zhang Han evenly.”
“Are we going in to cause trouble?”
“I know what you’re thinking.”
“But you have to understand, the two of us together can’t handle this Supernatural Event.”
“If we go in first and encounter Zhang Han and the others, it’s fine, but if we don’t encounter them and run into the ghost first.”
“Then, by that time, what they’ll face is the two of us after Fierce Ghost Revival!”
Woman, it seems they always like to speak with emotion.
Yu Lin’s words made Manyue frown repeatedly, but this was the fact.
But facts are always the most hurtful.
“What we can do now is wait for the club to send support and follow their arrangements.”
“Not do whatever you want.”
Yu Lin looked at Manyue with a serious expression:
“You have to be clear, this is an A-level Supernatural Event.”
“How many people inside are still alive, you don’t know.”
“Maybe they’ve all died, or maybe a small part are still alive.”
“But none of that is a reason for us to go in first and cause chaos.”
“If we die, it’s no big deal, but if we cause trouble for the club and this city, then there is a problem.”
Manyue exhaled, was silent for a long time, then nodded:
“You’re right, I didn’t think it through.”
Yu Lin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart; he was really afraid this woman would rush in on impulse.
Originally, before this, Manyue would absolutely not have this idea.
But now, with Fierce Ghost Revival resolved, they no longer had to endure the daily erosion of the fierce ghost.
Their minds were gradually recovering to normal.
This made them more human-like, starting to have humanity.
Just like now.
Yu Lin knew exactly what Manyue was thinking.
She wanted to go in and save people.
Was this wrong?
Logically, it was not wrong.
But the problem was, Supernatural Events cannot be understood logically.
According to Supernatural Events, Manyue’s behavior was wrong!
Manyue gazed at the gloomy Ghost Domain, her eyes flickering with worry.
“……”
“……”
“It looks like, for a while in the future, Da Jiang City will be in a lot of trouble.”
On a street, under the shade of trees, a Faceless Person gazed at the Ghost Domain covering a large area of the sky.
Beside him, an old man slightly narrowed his eyes, looking in one direction.
In that direction, there was an abandoned mental hospital.
“That place, I can’t see through it. When I came before, it seemed like just an ordinary abandoned hospital.”
“But now……”
“I can feel that something under that hospital is reviving.”
The Faceless Person followed the old man’s gaze:
“Too fast, very suspicious.”
“Logically, even if there’s something there, it shouldn’t revive this fast.”
Old Man: “You mean, someone is deliberately reviving the fierce ghost?”
The Faceless Person nodded: “This possibility cannot be ruled out.”
As he spoke, he looked toward the place they had left before.
That was a school relocation site that hadn’t been demolished yet.
“The Ghost Opera Stage has been put back, so that place will have problems too.”
“What did you discover before?”
Suddenly, the Faceless Person asked.
The old man hesitated, his gaze flickering:
“Someone tried to revive the thing hidden and detained there.”
“But because of lacking the medium, they couldn’t find that thing.”
“Now, with the Ghost Opera Stage in place……”
The old man said, then fell silent.
The Faceless Person also fell silent.
He knew what the old man meant.
Now with the Ghost Opera Stage in place and the medium appearing, the thing that couldn’t be found can now be found.
“Do you know who was in charge of that hospital and that school before?”
The Faceless Person asked.
The old man shook his head:
“Unclear. I’m not from that era. I only guess that terrifying Ghost Controllers might have existed here before, but I don’t know who specifically.”
“What I know about the Republic of China era comes from the souls I’ve summoned, not my own experiences.”
The old men of their Taiping Ancient Town were not Ghost Controllers from the Republic of China era.
The Faceless Person nodded:
“Forget it, not knowing is better, to avoid trouble.”
“The chaos in Da Jiang City has emerged. Since that kid treats this as his base, he’ll have his own headaches.”
“Let’s go.”
The Faceless Person turned and left.
He didn’t want to stay long in Da Jiang City, lest he get involved.
The old man didn’t speak, gazing at the city bathed in sunlight.
Who could have thought that this prosperous Da Jiang City hid such a crisis?
“Sigh……”
The old man sighed and turned, disappearing from the spot.
“……”
“……”
“This Ghost Domain’s range……”
On top of a high-rise building, a young man suddenly appeared.
He stood at the edge of the rooftop, overlooking the Ghost Domain enveloping the entire Xijiang University.
From high above looking down, the entire Xijiang University was shrouded in extreme darkness.
This darkness vaguely formed the shape of a spirit tablet.
If someone overlooked from above the Ghost Domain at this moment.
They would horrifically discover that on the spirit tablet formed by the Ghost Domain, the shape of characters was slowly appearing.
Lin Qian slightly narrowed his eyes, roughly measuring the range covered by this Supernatural Event’s Ghost Domain.
“About the same as my Ghost Domain’s coverage…… No, a bit smaller than mine.”
His Ghost Domain came from the Killer Ghost.
Before, the Killer Ghost’s Ghost Domain could only cover a few streets.
But after using the Sneak Attack Ghost as a puzzle piece to control and complete it.
The Killer Ghost’s Ghost Domain subsequently increased by several times.
“Not an ordinary A-level Supernatural Event.”
“It’s normal that Zhang Han and the others can’t handle it.”
Lin Qian’s gaze suddenly shifted.
Below, a sports car suddenly stopped.
Immediately after, a man wearing a windbreaker got out of the car.
On the street, a man and a woman quickly approached, as if they had been waiting for a long time.
“Ye Feng has arrived too.”
Lin Qian gazed at the three small figures below.
“What’s the situation?”
Ye Feng looked at Yu Lin and Manyue approaching and casually asked.
Yu Lin shook his head: “Unclear, we haven’t tried going in.”
Ye Feng nodded upon hearing this:
“Looks like the intelligence is only what Zhang Han sent out.”
“Now trying to go in, do you choose to come with me or provide support from outside?”
Ye Feng slung a long box on his back and took a golden box from the car, putting it in his pocket.
“Go in together. After all, we also control two ghosts.”
Yu Lin said without any hesitation.
“Me too.” Manyue replied.
Ye Feng nodded, straightened his clothes, and his gaze instantly darkened:
“This time, if we can’t handle this Supernatural Event, it won’t be easy to explain to the president.”
“There has to be a limit to eating for free.”
Hearing this, Yu Lin and Manyue were immediately startled.
Their expressions turned horrified.
They then remembered that their president was not someone to be trifled with.
Ye Feng glanced at the two and said nothing more.
He had conveyed what the vice president told him.
He didn’t want to say more than necessary.
“Let’s go, go in and take a look.”
Ye Feng took the lead and walked toward that dark territory.
Yu Lin and Manyue looked serious and quickly followed.
Watching the three enter the Ghost Domain, Lin Qian’s gaze flickered slightly.
Wang Xiaoqiang was right; the club’s members need to grow.
Controlling more fierce ghosts or more terrifying ones doesn’t actually help much.
If they were all useless like Tong Qian, even controlling an S-level fierce ghost would be pointless.
As a Ghost Controller who controlled two ghosts with terrifying lethality, yet being detained by ordinary people and used for experiments.
If such a complete waste appeared in his club, he would probably kill them without hesitation.
“Lu Lin, Zhang Han, Ye Feng, Yu Lin, Manyue, Si Zeyuan……”
“Five Ghost Controllers, two of whom control three ghosts. Can they handle this Supernatural Event?”
Lin Qian yawned; he’d wait and see.
His figure flickered, Ghost Domain activated, and he directly entered the Ghost Domain.
He wanted to observe up close how they handled the Supernatural Event.
“Hm?”
In the Ghost Domain, a middle-aged man suddenly looked up in one direction.
“Ghost Domain……”
The middle-aged man frowned slightly, his numb eyes flashing coldly.
“The signal shielding was too slow; someone actually got the news out.”
The middle-aged man tossed away the controller in his hand.
Since someone had come in, and so boldly, there was no need to guard the signal shielding device anymore.
“Possesses Ghost Domain, kingly demeanor……”
“Unfortunately, a Ghost Controller.”
The middle-aged man looked in that direction, murder in his eyes.
The dim world was silent.
The thick, pungent corpse stench was overwhelming.
Lin Qian walked through the campus, somewhat silent.
In the campus, he saw no living people.
He only saw corpses.
Corpses with gruesome and eerie death states were scattered throughout the campus.
On the playground, on small paths, in the forest, in the lake……
Everywhere, everywhere.
The corpses were severely rotten, bodies bloated, with swollen and decayed internal organs visible in the rotten areas.
The corpses’ faces were unrecognizable, completely rotted beyond human form.
This Supernatural Event had extremely high danger.
The terror level was still unknown.
Tap tap tap.
Footsteps suddenly sounded.
Lin Qian turned back sharply.
“Living person…… No, Ghost Controller.”
Lin Qian narrowed his eyes slightly. Following the footsteps, a numb-looking middle-aged man appeared behind him.
He stepped over corpses toward Lin Qian.
“Can’t you walk properly?”
Lin Qian looked at the corpse trampled to mush by the other, his expression turning cold.
The middle-aged man’s steps stopped, then he frowned: “Just some inferior swine corpses, what’s there to care about?”
“Inferior swine?”
Such a familiar phrase.
“Reform Society?” Lin Qian’s gaze shifted.
“Oh?” The middle-aged man was somewhat surprised:
“Looks like you’re Lin Qian.”
Currently, the only ones who had contact with outside Ghost Controllers were those two dead Reform Society members.
And those two died at the hands of the Desolate Club president, Lin Qian.
So, the one who would know about the Reform Society was probably only Lin Qian.
Lin Qian didn’t speak; he glanced at the corpses on the ground, then looked up at the gloomy Ghost Domain in the sky.
“Lin Qian, you’re talented. I can take the liberty to offer you a chance to join us and escape being inferior swine.”
“The opportunity is only once; don’t miss it.” The middle-aged man looked at Lin Qian and said flatly.
Lin Qian: …
“Did you cause this Supernatural Event?”
The middle-aged man frowned at this, “Sort of.”
Though somewhat displeased, he still answered.
“What’s the purpose?”
Lin Qian’s gaze changed slightly.
“Purpose?” The middle-aged man looked at Lin Qian with pity:
“Someone like you won’t understand us.”
“But since you’ve asked sincerely, I’ll graciously tell you.”
“Look.”
The middle-aged man pointed at the corpses on the ground.
“Just by relying on these swine who shouldn’t exist in this world, this ghost has grown to possess a Ghost Domain.”
“Don’t you think that’s worthwhile?”
“These inferiors, their existence is a waste. Their only value in living is to make ghosts grow.”
“Just this many people made a ghost grow to this level. What if it was a city, a country?”
The middle-aged man showed a look of expectation.
Lin Qian listened and listened, his face expressionless.
He thought he was already evil, but unexpectedly, in front of this man, his evil wasn’t even fit to carry the other’s shoes.
“Oh? You’re displeased?”
“Do you think there’s a problem with this?”
The middle-aged man stared at Lin Qian with hands behind his back.
“A natural disaster, an earthquake—how many die? Rather than letting them die in natural disasters or earthquakes, it’s better to make it convenient for me. We’re just making use of waste.”
“Have you seen those in hospitals tormented by terminal illnesses?”
“Seen those on the verge of death?”
“Do you think they live comfortably?”
“Instead of letting them die without value, why not have them do me a small favor?”
“I’m helping them.”
The middle-aged man pointed at the corpses on the ground.
A mocking smile appeared on his lips: “Just waste utilization. That’s all they’re good for; it’s their only value in existing.”
Lin Qian was expressionless:
“What’s the purpose of making the fierce ghost grow?”
He wanted to know why they used human lives to nurture ghosts.
“Purpose?”
The middle-aged man chuckled, “Can’t tell you that. Why not join us?”
“Then I can tell you.”
Lin Qian exhaled.
He knew the other wouldn’t give a satisfactory answer.
No matter; just beat it out of him.
Lin Qian reached for his face. The moment his hand neared, a mask appeared in his hand, which he directly put on.
“Before we fight, may I presumptuously ask a question.”
Lin Qian slightly raised his head, his eerie eyes looking toward the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was calm, “Ask.”
“Heh, quite polite.”
Lin Qian chuckled.
“How many ghosts do you control?”
Hearing this, the middle-aged man’s brow furrowed imperceptibly, “Control?”
“Let’s say control for now. After all, you’re just a pitiful fool in the dark.”
“I’m different from you. You maintain balance and increase strength by controlling multiple fierce ghosts.”
“But I’m different; I only need one ghost.”
“You……”
Lin Qian waved his hand, rudely interrupting:
“Control one ghost, huh?”
With that, Lin Qian’s tone turned extremely cold:
“You fucking control one ghost and dare babble in front of me? Who the fuck gave you the guts to appear before me!”
Lin Qian’s figure vanished instantly.
The middle-aged man’s gaze shifted, but suddenly he frowned.
Before him, Lin Qian appeared in an instant, with no supernatural aura, grabbing straight at him.
“Foolish.”
The middle-aged man didn’t hesitate; cold yin energy surged from him, his numb eyes even more so, and he reached out similarly toward Lin Qian.
At the same time, the killing pattern was triggered, and terrifying supernatural directly attacked Lin Qian.
But right after the Supernatural Attack launched, the middle-aged man’s pupils trembled:
“Impossible! How can you dodge my attack!”
“Bad!”
The middle-aged man inwardly exclaimed trouble and hurriedly tried to retreat, dodging Lin Qian’s grab.
But too late!
A pale hand with no supernatural fluctuation gripped his neck.
The Ghost Messenger instantly suppressed the other’s fierce ghost.
The middle-aged man widened his eyes, “This suppression power! Impossible!”
“What a joke!!!”
The fierce ghost was directly suppressed, with no chance to resist.
Supernatural sank into silence; the middle-aged man’s eyes widened.
“You dare kill me!”
The moment the supernatural was suppressed, Lin Qian surprisingly discovered that in the other’s numb, dead eyes, that spark of spirit was rapidly fading.
“Anomaly?”
“What the fuck?”
Lin Qian was stunned; an anomaly had appeared in this period.
“Let go, if you kill me, you’ll definitely die……”
But before he finished, with the fierce ghost suppressed, the other’s spark completely vanished in a few breaths.
The middle-aged man’s expression turned completely numb.
He opened his mouth, but his last words were swallowed.
His arms drooped, and the middle-aged man’s head hung low.
“Anomaly.”
Lin Qian confirmed this person was an anomaly, whose consciousness was entirely sustained by the fierce ghost’s supernatural.
“You anomaly, babbling in front of me for nothing. Don’t you know I’m the counter to anomalies?”
Lin Qian shook his head; he thought this guy was something special, but in the end……
He was just a big pile of shit.
Cool entrance, but in actual combat, down in three seconds.
Lin Qian dragged the middle-aged man’s corpse, looking at the gruesomely dead corpses around.
He knew that in the headquarters files, there would be another several-digit number added.
