“Yang Jian is missing, and now Ye Zhen is also missing… The ghost couldn’t have taken them both down in such a short time, perhaps things are about to take a turn. Although we don’t know how they will deal with the fierce ghost next, I’m quite looking forward to it.”
In the distance, Leuk San’s paper figure had been watching the entire incident unfold from the beginning.
From Yang Jian’s failure against the captain, to narrowly escaping death by accident, to Ye Zhen’s arrival… this confrontation with the supernatural could be described as full of ups and downs.
Seeing this now, Leuk San’s years of experience and intuition told him that Yang Jian had found a way to counter the captain.
“I hope everything goes smoothly from here on out. If we can handle the Ghost Ship, that’s best; if not, at least we can’t die here. That ghost is terrifying, beyond the scope any spirit controller can handle. As long as Yang Jian doesn’t die this time, it’s the greatest victory. After all, the Ghost Ship’s time in reality is limited, we just need to hold out until it leaves.” He Yuelian said seriously.
“If the Ghost Ship isn’t resolved, situations like today’s will keep happening. With Yang Jian’s character, he won’t allow such a thing to happen. Moreover, just now, a plane from headquarters has already arrived over Dazhou City. Onboard is Old Qin’s sculpture. As long as any one of us gives the command, the sculpture will be air-dropped down; this is the last measure after Tong Qian’s failure in action.” Leuk San’s paper figure said, glancing up.
He Yuelian said, “So, you’re planning to unseal Old Qin if the operation fails, and let Old Qin deal with the Ghost Ship?”
“Exactly.”
Leuk San’s paper figure didn’t hide anything and said directly, “Regardless of whether Yang Jian’s actions succeed, I will have the plane drop that sculpture based on my judgment. Now that both Yang Jian and Ye Zhen are missing, if they don’t show up soon, I’m willing to take a gamble.”
“Don’t stop me. This was part of Yang Jian’s plan before; he was worried he might die in the struggle against the fierce ghost, so the decision-making power thereafter is in my hands. Because I have enough paper figures, even if this one dies, another can still relay orders.”
He Yuelian’s calm voice came from beneath the red veil, “Do as you please, the situation can’t get any worse anyway, at most there will be an evil spirit with the code name Old Qin added to the supernatural circle later, which was anticipated earlier.”
Leuk San’s paper figure didn’t speak further, keeping his eyes fixed on the situation over Ghost Lake.
He was observing to decide when to use Old Qin’s sculpture.
At this moment.
The tranquil Ghost Lake began to undergo changes. Originally, there weren’t many fierce ghosts standing on Ghost Lake, only a few could ignore its effects and stand on the water’s surface. However, just after that dense swarm of corpses that attacked Ye Zhen had finished pouring in, strange figures began to emerge from Ghost Lake one after another.
No doubt, they were all fierce ghosts immersed in Ghost Lake, but for some unknown reason, they began to break free from its bonds.
In just a brief moment, Ghost Lake was sparsely populated with separate ‘people’ standing on it.
Is Ghost Lake out of control?
Leuk San’s paper figure pondered this thought.
But soon, he realized it wasn’t.
This wasn’t Ghost Lake losing control; it simply had reached capacity. The cold waters couldn’t hold more fierce ghosts, leading to a phenomena where those with low terror levels sank back into the lake, while those already reawakened and with high terror levels found their way out.
This phenomenon had occurred once before, during the Ghost Lake incident handling.
However, soon after, the situation began to change.
The previously vanished Ye Zhen suddenly reappeared. His figure, very ethereal, floated above Ghost Lake, but soon, that ethereal form rapidly materialized, finally presenting itself completely before everyone, along with Yang Jian, who had disappeared into the ship’s cabin earlier.
“I knew nothing happened to them,” seeing Ye Zhen and Yang Jian reappear, Leuk San’s paper figure’s eyes lit up.
“That feeling of being watched is back.” Yang Jian frowned at this moment. As soon as he emerged from the supernatural place and returned to reality, he immediately felt something was watching him.
This feeling was identical to when he was in the cabin before.
It seemed that some filth stuck to him for sure.
However, Yang Jian didn’t feel endangered at the moment, so he didn’t plan to handle it now. He intended to deal with the captain’s issue first before handling this slowly.
“You already know my plan. If we can execute it today, we can eliminate this fierce ghost.” Yang Jian then glanced at Ye Zhen beside him.
After a brief rest, Ye Zhen’s terrifying wounds hadn’t healed but were much better, no longer threatening to tear open. Moreover, as time went on, they continued to improve.
“What you said isn’t hard to do, for me it’s a piece of cake,” Ye Zhen displayed a confident smile, believing Yang Jian’s plan could easily deal with the ghost in front of them.
Yet, the moment they appeared, a terrifying scene unfolded.
The captain beneath the Ghost Ship was now glaring at them with his lifeless eyes, and aside from that, the fierce ghosts standing on the lake also seemed influenced by something, turning their necks and fixing their collective gaze on them in surprisingly synchronized movements, as if professionally trained.
The smile on Ye Zhen’s face instantly froze.
Being simultaneously stared at by countless ghosts, even he felt a shiver down his spine.
“It seems that during my absence, this captain hasn’t been idle. Although I don’t know what method it used to affect these ghosts, causing all of them to target us, the plan cannot change.” Yang Jian frowned at this moment, his face extremely serious.
“Though it’s somewhat dangerous, as long as we join forces, we can break through the encirclement.” Ye Zhen then calmed down again, showcasing the demeanor of a master.
But compared to before, his confidence has diminished significantly.
After being taught a lesson by the captain, Ye Zhen had deeply understood the horror of that thing.
“The location of the old house is not far from here. Though accurately dragging the captain into it isn’t very difficult, we must prevent this captain from suddenly leaving. This ghost possesses a living person’s awareness. If it truly senses the danger and wants to leave, no one can stop it. As for the ghosts on Ghost Lake, though dangerous, Ye Zhen’s substitute paired with my restart can completely handle it.”
Yang Jian secretly pondered: “So now, it depends on whether this captain will take the bait. Once it enters the correct position, I can instantly send it into the old house. The captain who enters the old house will encounter Zhang Dong, who has died inside and has already become a resurrected ghost…”
During this brief contemplation, nearby ghosts began to move.
The ghosts that initially needed to trigger a killing pattern to act are now influenced by the captain, all converging towards Ye Zhen and Yang Jian.
Yang Jian directly took out the Ghost Scissors, intending to cut those cursed lines to avoid being targeted by this large group of ghosts.
However, after using the Ghost Scissors, he found that there were not many cursed lines on his body.
In other words, Yang Jian was actually not being targeted by the surrounding large group of ghosts.
This peculiar situation was perplexing.
But now there’s no time to think deeply, because some ghosts have already approached.
“Are you still thinking at this time?”
Ye Zhen didn’t hesitate at all. He punched hard at a ghost face that suddenly appeared beside him, directly knocking it into the water, and the ghost finally sank into Ghost Lake and never came up again.
“Don’t fight hard, retreat.” Yang Jian immediately stopped thinking, he regained his senses, and immediately joined forces with Ye Zhen to fight against the pressing ghosts.
Ghost Eyes opened, Ghost Flame ravaged Ghost Lake instantly, some ghosts were ignited immediately, standing still on the spot, but more ghosts continued approaching despite the burning pain of Ghost Flame.
Suddenly.
A cold hand suddenly grabbed Yang Jian’s ankle, then a terrifying force came, attempting to drag Yang Jian away.
However, Yang Jian reacted, kicked swiftly.
The force wasn’t strong, but the ghost felt like being hit by a truck, instantly flying out, its body twisted and deformed, afterward motionless, seemingly plunged into silence.
“Hmm?” Ye Zhen noticed this scene and was astonished, his eyes widened, showing surprise.
“Supernatural bus’s strength?” Yang Jian seemed to understand.
After controlling the ghost on the bus, he not only gained the ability to traverse supernatural and reality realms but also seemingly gained the capacity to crash and stall ghosts.
Perhaps he’s not as formidable as a real supernatural bus, but it seems sufficient to deal with the current ghosts.
To verify his speculation.
Yang Jian rushed directly to the nearest ghost, not waiting for the ghost to emerge from Ghost Flame, punched forward.
Bang!
A dull sound accompanied by a bone-breaking noise.
The cold corpse in front of him had its skull caved in, neck broken, body nailed to the spot, unable to move, losing activity capacity.
Indeed.
Yang Jian now is comparable to a walking supernatural bus.
He says ‘comparable’ because the ghost on the bus he’s controlling isn’t complete, a small part of the ghost’s body remains on Ghost Ship unaccounted for, hence the supernatural power he obtained is also missing a piece of the puzzle.
However, Yang Jian doesn’t feel regret.
For the more complete the ghost, the faster the haunting progresses; the more incomplete, the less dangerous.
The supernatural bus can crash and stall the terrifying Ghost Ship; Yang Jian has no confidence in controlling a complete ghost.
