Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 335: The Dead Dragon Dance
The first person to arrive in Luocheng was Wen Zhong, the head of Da'an City. He had experienced and solved many supernatural events and had also participated in S-level events. He was also a very competitive candidate for captain.

"This is weird. Los Angeles has completely become a deserted city. No one, no, not even a ghost can be seen."

Wen Zhong stood on the rooftop of a building in the city, looking at the silent city with some confusion. Out of some intuition, he covered himself with ghosts as soon as he set foot in Luo City, for fear that he would be targeted.

"Liang Yao, codenamed Living Ghost, is considered a city leader with considerable experience. I didn't expect that he would still fail today."

For a moment, Wen Zhong felt a little sad and desperate. What is the difference between this world and hell? Ordinary people are nothing in front of supernatural events. Ghost riders struggle to survive. Even the captain is still walking on the edge of life and death every day. Maybe he will never come back online after losing contact.

"An entire city of people disappeared because of this paranormal incident."

"Oh? Someone's coming. Let's answer it. It would be bad if the other party is not a ghost and is targeted."

Although he may mock himself, Wen Zhong will not give up on himself. It is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. At least that is what he thinks.

A helicopter flew in the sky. It was Liu Qi, the head of Luling City and also a candidate for team leader.

"Stay away from this city."

However, before Wen Zhong's ghost den could cover them, another ghost den had already enveloped both of them.

"I am Captain Lu Zhiwen, and I will lead the operation in Luocheng City."

The person who came was Lu Zhiwen. He used the ghost cave to travel quickly. Although the distance was the farthest, he was not late.

"Los Angeles has completely become a ghost town. It's best not to enter rashly."

Lu Zhiwen in the ghost den opened his mouth, but his mouth did not move, and the sound he made was very flat, without any ups and downs, like an emotionless robot. At the same time, his wooden eyeballs also moved uncontrollably for a few times, which looked quite weird.

"Army."

Wen Zhong and Liu Qi greeted Lu Zhiwen at the same time.

Lu Zhiwen nodded slightly, then took out the satellite phone and dialed directly.

"Shen Liang, the Luocheng Ghost Dragon Dance incident has been upgraded to S-level. I will take Wen Zhong and Liu Qi to try to resolve it, but I cannot guarantee that we will be able to handle it successfully."

Shen Liang on the other end of the phone had an extremely solemn expression. Although the headquarters had already prepared themselves mentally, he still felt powerless and frustrated when he got the confirmation from Lu Zhiwen.

"Understood, you should act within your capabilities and put your own safety first."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Zhiwen took the two of them away from Luo City and came to a nearby village.

"Army, what's going on?"

Liu Qi asked.

"I have some guesses, but I can't be sure yet. As you can see, the city of Los Angeles is completely empty. No one is alive. Only the occasional dull and chaotic footsteps can be heard."

"However, seeing is not necessarily believing. Through some special methods, I discovered that the missing people did not disappear out of thin air, but continued to exist in a strange state. Moreover, when I saw them, they also saw me."

Lu Zhiwen replied.

"You mean, those people now exist in a form that we cannot observe, and they are likely the source of the footsteps?"

Wen Zhong asked back.

"If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the case."

"We can't just leave it alone. If things continue to develop at this pace, we'll be finished if we end up connecting with the Mirror Ghost Den in Dazheng City."

Liu Qi said solemnly, but this time Lu Zhiwen did not respond, but was thinking about something silently.

"Even wooden eyes can barely detect some traces of ghost slaves. It is hard to imagine how terrifying the source ghost is."

"Are you going to try to control half of the corpse at this time?"

Lu Zhiwen was hesitating and making a decision at the same time. "Wait a little longer, I need more information before I can make a decision."

"Go to Luocheng City to check the situation. You stay in my ghost cave. If any unexpected situation occurs, try to protect yourselves."

"clear."

The next moment, the three of them flashed and entered the urban area of ​​Luo City. It was the same as what they saw from the outside. It was clearly the city center, but it was eerily quiet. Even Liu Qi and Wen Zhong, who had experienced many supernatural events, felt an inexplicable horror.

"It's such a weird feeling, I would rather confront a ghost head-on than go through this."

Wen Zhong said angrily.

Compared with Wen Zhong, Liu Qi seemed much more restrained, not sure if it was because of nervousness or something else.

"Ghost Dragon Dance, if we understand it from the code name, it should be related to the folk custom of dragon dance. Then, do these chaotic and disorderly footsteps represent a different step of dragon dance?"

Lu Zhiwen pondered, but the closer he got to the city center, the more uneasy he felt, even palpitations, as if some great terror was brewing and was about to erupt.

“Tap, tap, tap—!”

"Captain Lu, the footsteps seem to be becoming more unified and orderly."

At this time, Liu Qi, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.

"I feel the same way. Compared to the beginning when there was no pattern at all, it sounds a bit regular now."

Wen Zhong echoed.

“Tap tap~tap tap——!”

Although the footsteps were dull, they were getting closer and closer, almost touching the ears of several people.

"Are you kidding me?!"

At this moment, Lu Zhiwen's expression suddenly froze, and even the wooden eyeball shrank back into the eye socket, as if he was scared.

In Lu Zhiwen's vision, three dancing dragons that were completely black, old and dilapidated appeared outside his own ghost den. These three dancing dragons were extremely large, and almost each of them was hundreds of meters long. Their bodies were huge but full of holes.

What's even more strange is that the dragon's body is bloated, and you can't see who is supporting it. All you can see are countless pairs of legs and feet, densely connected and intertwined from head to tail.

Some of these legs and feet were blue and black, some were pale without a trace of blood, and some were simply left with only leg bones, with the flesh and blood completely rotted away!

“Living people dancing the dragon, but what is the pattern?”

Lu Zhiwen suppressed his uneasiness, but he found that Wen Zhong and Liu Qi seemed not to have noticed the dancing dragons at all, and were about to collide head-on with two of the black dragons.

“Tap tap~tap tap——!”

At this time, all three dancing dragons began to move. The countless legs supporting the dragons moved in a staggered manner without any rhythm or regularity.

Immediately afterwards, the huge body of the dragon dance began to twist and move forward in a strange posture, as if it would open its huge mouth like the abyss in the next second and swallow Wen Zhong and Liu Qi alive.

“Tap tap~tap tap——!”

Although he was still in the ghost den, Wen Zhong found that he was gradually losing control of his body. The three ghosts in his body seemed to be silent and did not react at all.

"Danger, extremely dangerous!"

At this moment, Wen Zhong felt terrified because he found that the connection between himself and the ghost in his body was gradually fading, as if his soul was about to leave his body.

Not only Wen Zhong, Liu Qi also encountered the same situation. However, the supernatural power he controlled was special enough that he could barely avoid some of the erosion, but he could not maintain it for a long time and had to find a way to get rid of it as soon as possible.

"Wen Zhong and Liu Qi were both attacked, but I was not. Why is that?"
