Ghost Compendium

Chapter 275: Shall We Have a Professional Exchange?


"Now, the viewers see a person in mid-air holding a human heart and a head, none other than the official Awakened from the Chengyang City City Destruction battle—Comrade Shadow."

"He has already killed the leader of the evil organization 'Promised Land,' and the supernatural fierce ghosts they've summoned are engaged in their final duel on the side."

"This Comrade Shadow, also considered a supernatural calamity, seems to be in a daze. What exactly is he doing? Will the supernatural fierce ghosts he summoned pose a threat to people? Why would the authorities allow someone like him to exist?"

"Our station's reporter continues to follow up on the report..."

Pa—

While the news reporters not far away were recording the content, a person with black tactical gloves suddenly grasped their arm tightly from beside them.

When he turned his head, it was none other than the Awakened from Shenhu City who was responsible for commanding the overall operation from the helicopter earlier; the person was also frequently featured in the local news.

He even interviewed the person before, so they were at least acquaintances, if not friends.

"Qin An, isn't this going a bit too far?"

Hearing the low voice of the Awakened commander calling his name, the reporter was clearly surprised for a moment.

He hadn't expected that after just one interview, the person would remember him.

"Captain Shi, the person above just allowed reporters to cover this supernatural event, and didn't you just agree as well?" Qin An retorted with a frown.

After speaking, he pointed to Wu Liang, who still appeared to be in mid-air, seemingly deep in thought.

In response, the commander gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, that's right, Comrade Zodiac Monkey allowed reporters to do coverage, but aren't you being too sensational?"

What he referred to, naturally, were the final questions Qin An mentioned during the recording.

These words may have voiced the doubts in the minds of all those online following the matter.

On the surface, there seemed to be no problem, but the way Qin An expressed them made it sound like an attempt to lead people to believe that Wu Liang was the so-called supernatural calamity, and that those supernatural fierce ghosts would pose a threat to people.

Such news had a definite negative impact and would not function positively in revealing the true situation, and might even result in Wu Liang being caught in a whirlpool of public opinion.

"Sensational? Aren't you worried about the issues I just raised, Captain Shi, or does the authority already know and has just been concealing these things all along?"

Qin An squinted, his sharp inquiry leaving no room for verbal mistake.

"What nonsense are you talking..."

Seeing the look on his face, the commander instinctively wanted to refute something, even considering hitting this guy square in the face.

But seeing the live recording equipment in his hand, he immediately raised his guard and kept his mouth shut.

Having been interviewed locally frequently, he naturally understood Qin An in front of him was the kind who would stoop to any means for major news exposure.

Such people often have traps wired within their questions.

If one wasn't careful, the conversation would be led by the nose by Qin An.

This was why the commander only had one interview with Qin An; he simply disliked such aggressive interview tactics.

"Why is Captain Shi so silent? Have I struck a nerve? Does the authority really already know?" Qin An aggressively pressed on.

At this moment, the live broadcast equipment in his hand resembled a Mauser gun on the battlefield, always aimed at the target's forehead, preparing to fire a bullet named public opinion at the appropriate moment.

And those who were online following and continuously sharing the broadcast resembled accumulated snowflakes, poised to cause a massive avalanche of rumors at the right trigger point.

They were coordinated, forming an unstoppable war machine that cruelly crushed any rebuttal from the victim beneath its wheels.

"Hmph! Qin An, you'd better know what you're doing; I advise you not to be the one to fire that bullet," the commander warned coldly his reporter.

At last, he turned and hurried toward the Fierce Ghost Battlefield nearby to assist in the command.

He knew very well that the arrival of this storm of public opinion was beyond his current power to stop.

It could only be handled by the source of all this—Comrade Zodiac Monkey, who was hanging in mid-air like an executioner clutching a heart and a head.

He hoped the other would realize that the battle was not confined to the visible beach alone—that there was also a battlefield in the unseen whirlpool of the internet!

......

......

At this moment, Wu Liang, who was being watched by everyone, was closing his eyes to feel the pain of the Blood and Flesh Sacred Beetle burrowing into his forearm.

With his mind rapidly racing, a flash of cleverness sparkled in his eyes, and he summoned a relatively weak fierce ghost.

"Haha, who would've thought that you would be my insurance in the end—a task you've certainly earned. Later, all those main body fragments of the artificial ghosts will be your food," Wu Liang said with a smile.

He then slowly placed his hands into the toy building of Lego bricks.

A subtle smirk unconsciously formed on the corner of his lips.

"Pioneer, oh Pioneer, you probably didn't expect this move from me."

"Your plan for mutual destruction is about to fall through!"

This was the very Tower Ghost he had prepared before, not far from the Utopian Village during his trip through the Tianshan Mountain Range when he doubted Ah Yimu's words and left it as mobile insurance.

Last time, "Ghost Shadow Following" served as the basis for the insurance, while this time it was using the Tower Ghost's own ability—

"Time Shift House: Any inanimate object placed inside the Tower Ghost can revert to a past state of it."

That's right! Previously, Wu Liang used this ability to restore the Unlimited Transmission Chip and save Zodiac Pig.

Since then, because the Ghost Compendium has the function of modifying reality, he hadn't used this ability much.

Now, it turns out that when he can't use "modify reality," the Tower Ghost's ability has come into play quite impactfully!

Although it was called an insect, the Blood and Flesh Sacred Beetle was essentially a supernatural object without genuine life signs, so it fell within the influence range of the Tower Ghost's fierce ghost ability from the Time Difference Tower!

Next, all he needed was to wait for it to revert to the state before the tentacles emerged from the heart and head!

This way, he could seal it inside!

With a solution in hand, Wu Liang exhaled a long breath, first glancing at the Fierce Ghost Battlefield, concluding that nothing to worry about would change.

He finally turned sharply to stare at Qin An, holding the live equipment in the distance and flashed a smile that sent chills down the spine.

Swoosh—

The next second, Wu Liang, still with his hands in the Tower Ghost reversing process, disappeared out of thin air and appeared right in front of Qin An, who was breaking out in cold sweat.

"Haha, hello there, my friend, I'm Shadow; I also have an official codename—Reporter."

"If I may say, I was also a top student in journalism studies. Care for a peer exchange?"
