Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 184 The Silent City

"Wei Jing, what's the situation inside?"

Wang Xiaoming took a nap, and the first thing he did after waking up was to ask about the experiment.

"I can't tell for sure, but Cao Yang is undergoing some incomprehensible changes. His image is moving closer to this oppressive ghost..."

Although a day and a night had passed, Wei Jing was still staring at the movements in the isolation room. His eyes were numb and without any trace of life, he stood there like a sculpture.

"He is more ruthless than I thought, so he is more suitable to take over the headquarters than you and Li Jun."

Wang Xiaoming stretched and said lightly.

Wei Jing was not angry after hearing this, or perhaps he no longer had any emotions of a living person, but he still held on to the sense of justice he had as the person in charge before.

"Li Jun is upright and decisive, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage. He can risk his life to solve supernatural incidents, but some things, some evil spirits, cannot be solved by just risking your life."

"To face the evil spirit, both brains and courage are indispensable. Li Jun is too reckless. He is a good swordsman, but definitely not a good leader."

Wei Jing responded.

"I may not be as good as Li Jun. A person who has died once is not worthy of being fully trusted by others. Even I don't know if I am currently affected by the evil spirit in some way. Therefore, the only one who is truly suitable to take over the decision-making of the headquarters is Cao Yang."

In the isolation room, the regular conflict between the ghost carrying people and the ghost pressing people is still going on. The ghost pressing people is like a dead and heavy mountain pressing on the back of the ghost carrying people, while the ghost carrying people is like a skinny and shriveled old man. Although weak, he always stands firm and does not fall down.

Not only that, during the confrontation between the spirits, the two ghosts also underwent some subtle changes: the body of the oppressing ghost stepping on the carrying ghost began to tilt, and the degree of tilt was very small at first, imperceptible to the naked eye.

But as time passed, the tilt became very obvious, as if the creepy corpse could fall down at any time and then lie completely on the back of the ghost carrying the human.

Cao Yang held a photo in his hand. The photo looked a little blurry, as if it was mosaiced. Even so, the figure in the photo was clearly visible, somewhat like Cao Yang, but more like the oppressive ghost.

The ghost carrying people on its back is controlled by Cao Yang, so the ghost oppressing people is alone at this time, which conforms to the attack pattern of the ghost in the photo. The image of the ghost oppressing people is being replicated in the photo little by little, and this replication is also reflected in Cao Yang himself.

"He really did it, using ghosts to control ghosts."

Wang Xiaoming murmured in a low voice.

The ghost wind in the isolation room was still raging. The wind as sharp as a knife was beating against the thick glass surface, and from time to time a dull, heart-pounding sound could be heard.

"The tracking ghost controls the photo ghost, the tall and thin ghost controls the oppressive ghost, and the tracking ghost and the photo ghost assist. If you show up again this time, you will be the undisputed number one ghost rider in the headquarters."

Wang Xiaoming's expression changed slightly. Like Cao Yang, he seemed to have seen the picture of success.

"Wei Jing, you keep watching. If anything unusual happens, immediately seal off the entire experimental center. Don't let the ghosts here spread out."

"Ah."

Wei Jing responded numbly.

"Cao Yang's ghost shadow, Yang Jian's headless ghost shadow, both ghosts exist by replacing the ghost tamer's shadow. However, a shadow is just a shadow, without substance, so its instinct is to find a complete ghost body?"

Wang Xiaoming fell into deep thought, and it seemed as if a new idea had come to him.

Kobe, an island country, was a city that had been killed by ghosts. It looked very desolate and dilapidated, like a dead city. There were almost no people in the city, only a few sneaky figures flashed by, and it was hard to tell whether they were people or ghosts.

There were many houses in the dead city, but in a two-story wooden building, there was a sudden sound of footsteps. The footsteps were mechanical and stiff, and the intervals between each step were exactly the same. It was obviously a ghost moving. On the second floor of the building, there was a closet in the room. The whole room was filled with a strong stench of corpses, and the closet was the source of the stench.

"boom!"

The door of the closet was suddenly pushed open, and a pair of feet in leather shoes stretched out from it. Looking up, the owner of these feet was wearing a suit specially made by the Exorcist Club. However, this suit was dirty and old, with cracks of varying sizes all over it.
The most bizarre thing was the head of the corpse. It was extremely rotten, and even the skin had peeled off, revealing the black and smelly flesh on the face. Although the eyes of this head were dead, they occasionally flashed a glimmer of the spirit of a living person, which made people feel extremely creepy.

Osaka City, Exorcism Society.

"President Mishima, if we can't find support, our Exorcist Club will be destroyed!"

A ghost rider named Gao Yu shouted loudly, his expression terrified and his whole body shaking with fear.

But there was no response from the president's room. In desperation, Gao Yu broke open the door, only to find that Mishima had already turned into a headless corpse. No, his head had fallen to the ground, his expression was full of fear, his face was ashen, and the head had even begun to rot.

"Dead... dead?"

A trace of despair flashed across Gao Yu's face.

"Mishima is dead, Ichiro is in his place!"

Outside the house, several ghost riders were shouting loudly. They were all under the command of Minister Ichiro. They were the first to know about Mishima's death. Now was the best time to support Ichiro to take the position.

A country cannot be without a king for a day. The Exorcist Society is the ghost-controlling organization representing the entire island country. If there is no one to take charge of the overall situation, the entire island country will definitely be completely destroyed.

With the support of these people, Ichiro gloriously succeeded, and then he gave a ridiculous speech on treatment:

"From today on, I, Ichiro, will take over the position of president of the Exorcist Society. Under my leadership, our island nation will definitely defeat and destroy everything that stands in our way. Don't underestimate the bond between the core members of our Exorcist Society—Ah!"

"I will contact Cao Yanhua right away and ask them to send a captain to assist our Exorcist Society members in solving this supernatural incident!"

Although the situation is critical, Ichiro is indeed in high spirits at the moment. With these four ghost riders supporting him, not to mention anything else, anyone who wants to attack him will have to think twice.

It's enough to stay alive.

Domestic, Dajing City, headquarters.

"Deputy Minister, the call from the Island Country Exorcist Society, the other party..."

Shen Liang handed the phone to Cao Yanhua with an embarrassed expression.

"Mexi, mexi~ Deputy Minister Cao, how are you?"

A somewhat obscene voice came from the other end of the phone, but it was obviously not Mishima.

Cao Yanhua frowned and asked with some doubt

"Aren't you President Mishima?"

"Minister Cao, there is an old saying in your country, 'Those who are good at things are heroes.' This bastard Mishima is not good at things. Even the evil spirits couldn't stand it and killed him cruelly!"

"My name is Ming Yilang. I have temporarily taken over the position of president of the Exorcist Society. This time I called to ask Minister Cao for a small favor."
