Chapter 56 - 81,88 (1)

Chen Pipi died.

Only some ordinary corpse handlers remained in the warehouse.

Jiang Qiao did not intend to enter the underground morgue, because he was unsure whether there were any experts guarding it.

Although "double pupils" have been upgraded to the second tier.

The released gray light attack can reach the third level.

Even a peak Tier 3 fighter might be able to kill it if a critical hit is triggered!

However, his body was too fragile, and his "Overlord Body" was only at the second level.

When encountering a strong opponent in the third tier, it's easy for the two to instantly kill each other.

It all comes down to who can act faster!

He wouldn't do something so risky.

Of course, since we're here, we can't leave empty-handed.

Doing nothing but killing a tangerine peel feels a bit antilimactic!

So he took a bunch of explosives out of the ghost skin bag!

They were all obtained from the military during the simulation and then materialized by him.

In fact, he not only had explosives, but also two missiles!

However, these things were of little use to him in reality, so they just sat in his pocket collecting dust.

"Come here."

Jiang Qiao called over several trembling corpse movers.

"Take these explosives down and put them away properly."

"Also, send me a video of the route below, the more detailed the better."

"After you finish taking the photos, please leave them at the entrance of the supermarket across from the school."

He took out a video camera and handed it to a body mover.

"Don't even think about running away! I've already cursed you; if you don't comply, you'll die immediately!"

Jiang Qiao said, pretending to be fierce.

Don't underestimate these corpse movers just because they're ordinary people. They're at Chen Pipi Pi's mercy, and they don't even dare to resist.

In fact, they all carried a menacing aura, and it was clear at a glance that they were not good people.

According to Chen Pipipi, the experiment of combining humans with vengeful ghosts has been going on for quite some time!

It is easy to imagine how many people were killed during this period.

The guys carrying corpses inside are unlikely to be law-abiding citizens.

Of course, if a low-probability event occurs, these people are all good kids who enjoy helping others.

Jiang Qiao could only apologize.

Yes, yes, yes.

The body movers were so terrified they didn't dare to have any other thoughts.

After watching the group enter the tunnel, Jiang Qiao turned and left.

As for whether the body movers would comply, he didn't really know.

However, as I said before, it would be good if we could cause some trouble for the "new humans," but if we couldn't, it wouldn't matter.

Just treat it as a game.

...

"Boom!"

"Boom! Boom!"

"Boom boom boom!"

"..."

The huge explosion made the streets and houses around the "Haicheng Health College" vibrate.

Both school students and nearby residents were awakened from their sleep.

They stared in shock at the billowing smoke in the distance.

"What happened?"

"Holy crap, the school exploded! Does this mean I don't have to go to class today?"

"Hurry up and call Erling... the old campus? Then it's alright."

...

Jiang Qiao, who made headlines today, has already returned to his hotel and did not go to retrieve the camera at the supermarket entrance.

He said that on purpose, to see if the mortuary workers would bring people out to find him.

As for understanding the situation of the underground morgue.

After this explosion, someone will help him find out.

At that moment, he was on the phone with Shen Yingning.

8ВооК. cОm

"Master, I have obtained the invitation for you."

"It's said that a small auction will be held at this business banquet, and Zhu Yuandong has acquired some items that can ward off evil spirits, which has aroused a lot of interest." Shen Yingning's tone also carried some interest.

Now that vengeful spirits are recognized, many people are eagerly searching for all sorts of things that can ward off evil.

Temples, Taoist temples, and feng shui masters have become the most profitable industries recently.

"Something to ward off evil spirits?" Jiang Qiao frowned.

He didn't doubt that Zhu Yuandong had such a thing, after all, he was the regional head of "New Humans".

I was just curious about his motives.

"Yes, I've heard that these things can protect their owners, and even if they encounter a vengeful ghost, the ghost will leave on its own. I just don't know if it's true or not," Shen Yingning explained.

"Now that you mention it, I really should go and take a look."

Jiang Qiao also became interested.

Based on the description, it does resemble the characteristics of an "evolver".

Because "evolvers" are infested with vengeful spirits, they are easily treated as one of their own by most of these spirits.

So they lived very comfortably after the supernatural resurgence.

On the contrary, awakened individuals are even more vulnerable to attacks from vengeful spirits than ordinary people.

It's like their birth charts are incompatible.

Jiang Qiao didn't know why before, but after the last simulation, he roughly understood that in the eyes of the vengeful ghosts, the awakened ones were probably a bunch of heretics!

"Master, do you need me to come and pick you up?" Shen Yingning asked.

"No need," Jiang Qiao shook his head.

He planned to go there himself.

Shen Yingning's identity is not simple.

Jiang Qiao recalled the information she had received during the last simulation: her father had died in Bincheng.

Moreover, she could easily help strangers get invitations to Zhu Yuandong's business banquets.

Although Jiang Qiao still trusted her quite a bit.

But this time, he wanted to keep a low profile while attending the banquet; he didn't even need to "steal" because he was afraid of being discovered.

I might as well pretend to be an ordinary person.

"Just send me the invitation; I'm at the Yu Ruyi Hotel."

...

I had just finished making the phone call when there was a knock on the door.

"Master, where shall we go today?"

Old Zhou, still half-asleep, yawned and asked wearily.

"No need, no need, Lao Zhou, you should rest well. I'll just take a taxi there myself in a bit."

Jiang Qiao said somewhat apologetically.

After all, he's almost forty years old, and I drove all night to take him to Haicheng.

Although he knew it was to get closer to her, Jiang Qiao was still somewhat touched.

"I see. Then please take care of yourself, Master."

"I just heard a waiter outside say that there was an explosion at the nearby Haicheng Health College, which may have been deliberate."

"Sigh, what kind of world is this?"

"He's both a criminal and a vengeful ghost."

Old Zhou shook his head.

"Since the master has other matters to attend to, I won't disturb him any longer. I'll take a nap in a bit, and then head to Ancheng."

Old Zhou was quite sensible and turned around and left the room.

"etc."

Jiang Qiao called him back, thought for a moment, and then took out seven or eight "Five Thunder Talismans" from his pocket, handing them over to Old Zhou's surprised expression.

"Take it, you might need it."

...

Haicheng.

Tengfei Building.

Top floor conference room.

A group of high-ranking members of the "new humans" are having a meeting.

Wu Difeng sat at the conference table, his face somewhat gloomy.

"The laboratory has been exposed because of this explosion."

"Not only will the achievements be ruined, but we may also face official accountability."

"Now is not the time to clash with the authorities."

"So I'm giving you three days. You must find the mastermind behind those body movers!"

It was almost noon.

Jiang Qiao changed his clothes and took a taxi to the "Sea King Banquet Hotel".

As soon as I arrived at the entrance, I saw many luxury cars parked outside.

The S600 and A8 are just supporting cars here; there are also plenty of Bentleys and Rolls-Royces.

He even saw a Hongqi, and it was a bulletproof model!

"It seems quite a few important figures from Haicheng have arrived."

Jiang Qiao handed over the invitation at the door and entered the venue smoothly.

He grabbed some snacks, found a corner to sit down, and paid no attention to the well-dressed VIPs in the hall.

It might be gone the day after tomorrow.

Is it necessary to bother with a bunch of dead people?

Instead, the information on the simulator screen made him very serious.

...

Day Sixty. In the town square of the refugee camp, you discover a row of slender-necked vases with human heads standing upright.

They were all among the first group of people who failed in the letter-writing mission.

You tried to communicate with them, but failed.

You eventually got rid of them.

[Day 61. In the early morning, you instructed your subordinates to continue monitoring the letter incident.]

You secretly left Bincheng, intending to travel to Haicheng to meet the leader of the "New Humans."

[...]

Day 64. You arrive in Haicheng and head to Tengfei Building!

Your arrival was warmly welcomed by the "new humans".

Leader Wu Difeng personally went out to greet them.

After a meeting with Wu Difeng, you accepted his invitation, officially joining "New Humans" and forming a co-presidential team with Wu Difeng!

[Day 65. You did not notice anything amiss, nor were there any contractual items binding you as you had imagined.]

It seems that from the moment you join the "New Humans," you truly become their leader.

[Day Sixty-Six. The news that you joined the "New Humans" and became one of their leaders spread rapidly across the globe through various channels, causing a massive upheaval!]

Your Warhammer members, stationed in various locations, are being secretly suppressed by other organizations.

[Day 67. You have entered the deepest part of the archives, seeking some secrets concerning the core of the world.]

No one is stopping you, and Wu Difeng seems completely unconcerned.

[...]

[Day 72. After several days of study, you have learned a great deal of information that you never knew before.]

Including some of the questions you care about most!

For example, "Crow Ferry" is mentioned in the archives as the northernmost port on the eastern continent of the supernatural world.

Moreover, mysterious trade activities still exist there to this day.

Many of the supplies were unheard of; it's a mystery where those vengeful ghosts found them.

[Day 73. You learned about the organization behind the safe zone; its name is "Light".]

This is a mysterious organization that suddenly appeared after the resurgence of supernatural phenomena.

Even the "new humans" know very little about them.

But Wu Difeng suspects that this organization comes from the supernatural world!

He told you that his father had once found a village of living people in the supernatural world, a village full of ordinary people.

These villages found peace through the worship of some mysterious entities.

[...]

[Day 120. It has been almost two months since you became one of the leaders of the New Humans.]

During this period, you did not engage in any acts of sabotage, nor did you participate in any organizational or management activities.

Aside from reviewing intelligence, no other requests were made.

You were already wary of this organization, but your wariness had lessened considerably.

[Day 121. Wu Difeng found you.]

He tells you that you have gained his trust, so he's going to take you to see the strongest aspects of this "new human"!

[Day 122. You follow Wu Difeng to an ancestral hall.]

In the main hall of the ancestral hall, there is a strange, wordless memorial tablet.

You glanced at it a few more times.

8вοOK. COM

Suddenly, a sense of dread crept into your heart.

You felt as if you were being watched by something incredibly terrifying, as terrifying as the seven-colored light you saw deep in Hualong Mountain!

You want to back away, but it's too late.

Your whole body starts to crack.

Wu Difeng tells you with a smile that every twenty years, the "new humans" must sacrifice a leader to return him to the embrace of the gods.

The last person to be sacrificed was his father.

This time, it should have been his turn.

But your strength is already more than enough.

You're dead!

...

"A blank memorial tablet…must be offered sacrifices every twenty years."

Jiang Qiao murmured softly.

"So that's how it is. No wonder they invited me to be the leader. They were treating me like a tribute."

This time, my talent wasn't very good.

Therefore, Jiang Qiao wanted to see what would happen after joining the "New Humans".

I never expected that they would end up making something so terrifying.

"Wu Difeng may seem to be living a glamorous life, but in reality, he can't even protect himself."

"His father's motives for establishing a new human more than 20 years ago are questionable."

Jiang Qiao recorded each piece of information.

He recalled that during the last simulation, Wu Difeng's white bone tree that fell from the sky was actually a seventh-order existence!

I was genuinely surprised at the time.

Now it seems that this thing is probably not so easy to get.

...

"Jiangqiao?"

A rough voice rang out from the side.

Jiang Qiao looked up and saw a big, stout man wearing a thick gold chain standing in front of him, looking at him with a surprised expression.

"Brother Liu, what are you doing here?"

Jiang Qiao was also somewhat surprised.

The person who came was actually the landlord of the villa!

"I'm here to discuss a business deal."

The man touched his bald head and smiled somewhat embarrassedly.

"Business has been tough lately, and I've been losing a lot of money. I heard there's a business event being held here, so I used my connections to get an invitation, hoping to find someone willing to invest in my company."

Then, the tone shifted.

"Brother Jiang, it's really fate that we meet here."

Jiang Qiao smiled sheepishly upon hearing this.

"I have no money."

"Look... uh..." The older brother was speechless after Jiang Qiao's words, and didn't know how to speak for a long time.

Just then, a surprised voice suddenly came from the side.

"Hey, isn't this Brother Liu?"

A man with a refined appearance and wearing gold-rimmed glasses strode over with a broad smile.

The landlord's face immediately turned ugly.

"I didn't expect Brother Liu to be able to attend this business meeting. Did he sneak in?"

"Haha, just kidding, just kidding."

"With Brother Liu's influence, if we pull some strings, we should be able to get an invitation."

Jiang Qiao had absolutely no interest in what conflict the two of them had.

Even if the two of them were to have a fight right there in the venue, it wouldn't concern him.

So he put down the food in his hand, stood up, and politely said something.

"Excuse me, you guys keep talking. I'm going to the restroom."

He had just turned to leave.

The bespectacled man suddenly said casually, "Wash your hands more often, after all, illness can enter through the mouth."

8вοOK. COM

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Jiang Qiao sized up the man with glasses.

Why does this guy talk in such a sarcastic way? That's not a good habit.

However, he didn't quite believe that someone with cerebral palsy in real life would inexplicably provoke a stranger in this situation.

There's probably something fishy going on behind this.

"Tao Ye, this is between the two of us, it has nothing to do with my friend."

The landlord stepped forward and nudged Jiang Qiao, urging him to leave.

"Jiang Qiao, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it. We'll talk later."

Jiang Qiao nodded.

He came here for the auction, not to go on a killing spree.

Once their whereabouts and identity are exposed, they can easily be harassed by "new humans".

After all, an explosion had just occurred this morning.

Although Jiang Qiao sneaked around and also made some makeup adjustments to his face before going to school.

However, through comparison, clues may still be found.

So he's not going to bother with this guy for now.

I'll talk to him slowly when the meeting is over.

Ask him why he has cerebral palsy.

...

Jiang Qiao's departure was somewhat unexpected for the bespectacled man.

He frowned almost imperceptibly.

Then, he turned to look at the landlord next to him, revealing a half-smile.

"Liu Dachuan, I advise you to go back to Bincheng and take care of your little lousy factory."

"Your brother-in-law is dead. Haicheng is not a place for you."

After saying that, he ignored the other person and left the hall.

Afterwards, I took the elevator to an office on the third floor.

"Bang bang bang"

Please come in.

The office is decorated in an antique style, with calligraphy and paintings by famous people, as well as antique jade artifacts.

An elderly man in his sixties, with a pale face, sat in a chair, admiring a piece of blood-red jade.

"How's it going?"

"Mr. Zhu, he chose to settle things peacefully and simply turned around and left."

Tao Ye said with utmost respect.

The man sitting in the office was none other than Zhu Yuandong, the initiator of this business meeting and auction, who was rumored to be selling several amulet items!

"When he first entered the venue, he clearly exuded a special aura, somewhat like an evolved being and somewhat like an awakened being, but then it disappeared."

Zhu Yuandong frowned slightly. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation, so he was unsure and sent someone to test the waters.

Both evolved beings and awakened beings have transcended the realm of ordinary people. They rarely tolerate provocation from ordinary people.

I just didn't expect Jiang Qiao to turn around and leave.

"The auction is about to start, have someone keep an eye on him."

Zhu Yuandong thought for a moment and then gave the order.

"As paranormal events continue to increase, awakened beings and evolved beings will also continue to emerge."

"Just like Zhang Xiang, who joined a few days ago, not only does he have special abilities, but his strength has also reached the peak of the first tier."

"We need to recruit more experts to have a voice within the organization."

...

Leave the hall.

As Jiang Qiao strolled along the corridor, he suddenly smelled someone burning incense, and the incense had a fishy smell.

"This is... ghost incense?"

Jiang Qiao stopped and sniffed carefully.

He possesses the talent of a "mad scientist," and the research results in the simulator are shared in reality, so he can easily identify the ghost fragrance.

"That's interesting."

He walked into the nearby restroom without making a sound.

In the cubicle, the gray vision of the double pupils was opened.

Immediately, the perspective effect appeared.

Ordinary buildings cannot block the gray perspective; only haunted places can possibly prevent prying eyes.

So he naturally penetrated through multiple walls to scan the area.

All floors were transformed into perspective views, offering a complete view.

"Um?"

He soon discovered the source of the ghostly incense.

That was an office located on the second floor.

Inside was a man in his sixties who exuded a strong ghostly aura.

His strength should have reached the third tier!

"This is Zhu Yuandong?"

Although the gray field of view only shows black and white lines, it is not very clear.

(8) BОоK. сом

But the other party was, after all, a famous entrepreneur with photos everywhere, so Jiang Qiao confirmed his identity after comparing them online.

"He's only at level three right now?"

Jiang Qiao was stunned, and his breathing became rapid.

In the previous simulation, Zhu Yuandong had already reached the fourth level by the thirty-seventh day.

So in reality, he doesn't really want to meet the other party, since he can't beat them.

I never expected to find that the opponent's strength was far less than I had imagined!

"That's right. After the resurgence of supernatural phenomena, even in an environment where evolved beings thrive, he's only at the fourth level."

"The third tier is perfectly understandable now."

Jiang Qiao suddenly felt a surge of excitement.

"Perhaps I can find a chance to kill him later!"

If we can kill Zhu Yuandong, it will definitely be a significant blow to the "New Humans"!

Damn it, they actually dared to make me their scapegoat!

Never give them good fruit juice!

In addition to the office, Jiang Qiao also discovered a storage room.

There were seven or eight evolved beings sitting inside.

Beside them were several boxes, all exuding a strong ghostly aura.

"These should be the items that will be auctioned today."

Jiang Qiao nodded.

He then looked away and left the restroom.

...

Jiang Qiao had just returned to the lobby when he ran into his landlord, who was trying to strike up a conversation with everyone.

It must have been tough on this guy.

People completely ignored him, but he still went up to them and shamelessly tried to strike up a conversation.

Mr. Jiang would never do something like that.

He found a place to sit down, took out his phone and started looking at the latest news while thinking about a plan to kill Zhu Yuandong.

"Um?"

Suddenly, a post caught his attention.

I encountered a ghost last night!

After Jiang Qiao clicked on it, he found that it was a post seeking help from a senior high school student.

"I am a senior high school student. Because of the heavy academic workload, I usually live at school and can only go home for one day on the weekend."

"Last night was Saturday. Although it was quite late and there have been a lot of ghost stories lately, I missed my mom so much that I decided to go home."

"The journey was smooth and we didn't encounter anything strange."

"But when I got back to the neighborhood and just stepped into the apartment building, I felt something was wrong."

"I've been walking up and down the stairs for over a decade, but I still feel a sense of estrangement. I always feel like someone is watching me through the peepholes on the closed doors on each floor."

"Because the community was built more than 30 years ago, it not only lacks elevators, but even the lights in the stairwells are dim."

"I remembered the ghost stories I'd recently read, and suddenly I felt a little scared, so I quickened my pace involuntarily."

"Soon, I arrived at the sixth floor, where my mother's colleague, Aunt Zhou, lived."

"For some reason, even though it was already past 10 p.m., her front door was still open, and Aunt Zhou and her husband were standing inside without moving."

Because the lights were off, I could only barely see two faces, which startled me.

"When they saw me, they greeted me warmly and invited me to their home."

"However, it was already very late, and I had a strange feeling about it, a creepy feeling, so I refused them and left quickly."

"When I got home, my parents were still awake. They were both happy and worried that I was coming home late at night."

"I reassured them that everything was alright, there were still many pedestrians on the road."

"During a casual chat, my mother suddenly mentioned to me that the Zhou couple on the sixth floor had gone missing."

"My mother was very sad. She said that she ran into Aunt Zhou at the stairwell that afternoon. Aunt Zhou was holding a very beautiful lantern and said that she had picked it up from the river. She never expected that something like this would happen that night."

"I was terrified when I heard that."

"Since they've already had an accident, why were they greeting me inside the house?"

"I think I've encountered a ghost. What should I do?"

...

"Human head lantern!"

Jiang Qiao recognized this old acquaintance at a glance!

This Aunt Zhou must have been greedy for a bargain and picked up the lantern. As a result, the lantern came back to life at night, and her whole family was wiped out.

"Another wave of upgrades!"

"Once this wave is over, we should be able to test the paper dolls."

Jiang Qiao thought to himself with delight.

As the resurgence of the supernatural draws ever closer, many vengeful ghosts have already quietly appeared.

The pregnant female ghost helped him take off, and his "double pupils" directly upgraded to the second stage!

Now, more lanterns shaped like human heads are being delivered to our door.

"I'll go kill Zhu Yuandong in a bit, then go back to Bincheng and take down the head lanterns!"

Jiang Qiao made a plan in an instant.

"It is our duty to slay demons and monsters!"

I spent a boring time.

Just as Jiang Qiao's simulator cooldown was about to end, the auction was finally about to begin.

"I heard that this auction was added at the last minute by Zhu Yuandong of Yuanmao International."

After a busy afternoon with no results, Liu Dachuan sat by the river bridge, showing no sign of frustration. Instead, he enthusiastically recounted some gossip he had heard that day.

"The paranormal resurgence is becoming increasingly serious, and people all over the world are living in fear."

"But there are still some talented people in this world."

"For example, that Taoist master who is very popular online right now directly killed the evil spirit. I heard that officials from various countries are looking for him."

"Damn it, I've seen that video too. Controlling lightning? Can that guy even be human?"

"If I had this ability, would I still worry about not being able to revive my own factory?"

Liu Dachuan touched his greasy bald head and said with some emotion.

"In addition, people with special abilities have been discovered in various places. Although they are not as terrifying as the Celestial Masters, they can still fight against ghosts and monsters to some extent."

"I've heard that Zhu Yuandong is such a person; he can make items to ward off ghosts. A powerful figure in Haicheng once obtained one, and it worked extremely well."

Jiang Qiao listened silently.

But deep down, I was somewhat skeptical.

What works so well is probably the "new human" fishing method.

They keep some ghosts in the house of your so-called influential person and give them some so-called ghost-repelling items.

hehe.

No matter how powerful you are, you're no different from an ordinary person when you encounter a vengeful ghost.

If you find the right opportunity, isn't it a piece of cake?

If the real world order hadn't remained stable and the official control hadn't been so strong, the "new humans" probably wouldn't have taken such a gradual approach.

It's important to know that after the supernatural resurgence, this organization directly took over Haicheng!

...

at this time.

The makeshift auction hall was already quite full.

On the platform, a tall, thin man dressed in black was introducing the auction items.

Standing beside him were two children with rouge on their cheeks, dressed in brightly colored satin clothes, carrying a tray with a thick incense stick prominently displayed on it!

"This is a calming incense stick, made by Mr. Zhu at great expense. Once lit, the ghosts will automatically leave the area filled with smoke. It is an invaluable life-saving item in paranormal events!"

"Starting price: 500,000, minimum increment: 10,000... Hey! Customer number 18 has bid 500,000! Any higher bids? Any higher bids?!"

The man on the stage shouted loudly, his voice filled with passion.

But Jiang Qiao frowned as he looked at it.

This isn't a calming incense at all; it's a mind-altering incense!

After it's lit, people will initially feel energetic and it does indeed have the ability to drive away evil spirits.

However, as the burning time increases, it will gradually induce a hypnotic effect, eventually leading to the person being controlled by the creator of the hypnotic incense.

"No wonder the auction price was so low; they probably wanted to find a reason to give it away without arousing suspicion."

Jiang Qiao roughly understood.

Zhu Yuandong wanted to use these tampered supernatural items to secretly control the important figures from Haicheng present.

Otherwise, how could such rare items as paranormal objects have a starting bid of 500,000?

Sure enough, the next few items had been tampered with.

Some have a hypnotic effect, while others, when ingested, are said to inflict a curse that makes the victim feel a strong liking for a particular person.

However, Zhu Yuandong was not lying about one thing: these things do have some exorcising effects.

Liu Dachuan, standing nearby, looked somewhat regretful.

"It's a pity I don't have the money, otherwise I would have bought one too."

Jiang Qiao ignored him and instead glanced around erratically.

After so much time, he had confirmed that there were no other experts in the hotel.

⒏ьοoК. COM

Only Zhu Yuandong in the vicinity has reached the third tier; the other evolved beings haven't even reached the second tier!

"hehe."

"I'm going out for a bit."

Jiang Qiao patted Liu Dachuan on the shoulder, stood up, and left the auction hall.

...

Neptune Feast Hotel.

Second floor.

office.

Tao Ye is reporting the situation to Zhu Yuandong.

"The recipient of the 'Bewitching Incense' is Liu Bingyuan of the Jinyuan Group."

"The Corpse Fragrance Peach Blossom has also been auctioned off. The winner is Mr. Liu from the management committee, but his cousin is the one who came."

"The corpse fruit was bought by Mr. Jiang from Ancheng."

Zhu Yuandong nodded slightly, then frowned and asked:

"What's going on with Liu Shumin? Why did she sound off when she called me today?"

He seemed to trust Tao Ye a lot.

They didn't even shy away from discussing his personal matters.

I just don't know why he was made to provoke Jiang Qiao, who might be an evolved being or an awakened being.

Tao Ye considered for a moment and said, "Madam seems to be paying special attention to the Haicheng Research Institute lately."

"I called several times to inquire after the explosion this morning."

"She wanted me to investigate a researcher named Chen Pipi."

"We questioned several of the body handlers at the scene, and they said that Chen Pipi had been reduced to ashes by the murderer."

Zhu Yuandong nodded and fell into deep thought.

"Chenpipi?"

To be honest, the entire "New Human" organization is in a state of tension right now.

This explosion put them in a very passive position.

There's no time to care whether a researcher lives or dies.

The chairman hasn't returned yet, and they alone might not be able to withstand the official criticism.

After all, evolved beings are not vengeful ghosts, and modern weapons still have some effect on them.

And the murderer appears to be a fire-type ability user.

It's just unclear which faction they belong to at the moment.

The situation is becoming increasingly volatile, and all sorts of strange things are emerging.

"The situation is turbulent and uncertain."

...

Jiang Qiao went up the stairs to the second floor and headed towards the office at the end.

"Sir, please stop!"

The security guard stopped him with composure and respect.

"I've come to talk to your General Manager Zhu about something."

Jiang Qiao said with a smile, showing off the blue markings on his hand.

He heard from his landlord that the number of Awakened Ones and Evolvers outside was gradually increasing.

During the simulation, he saw many awakened individuals in Haicheng.

Therefore, it's easy to guess that the "new humans" will recruit awakened individuals.

He planned to pretend to come seeking refuge, and then, taking advantage of Zhu Yuandong's inattention, shoot gray light from his eyes and kill him!

Sure enough, the security guard's expression changed drastically when he saw the strange markings.

"Please wait a moment, I'll go in and ask for instructions."

soon.

The security guard who just came out.

With a respectful expression, he said to Jiang Qiao, "Sir, Mr. Zhu would like to invite you in."

"Um."

Jiang Qiao nodded faintly and walked into the office.

At this moment, Zhu Yuandong had already stood up. When he saw Jiang Qiao come in, he immediately extended his hand and shook hands with him warmly.

"Welcome, welcome! May I ask your surname, young man?"

"My surname is Zhou, and my name is Zhou Jianming." Jiang Qiao used Old Zhou's name without any hesitation.

"Haha, it's Brother Zhou. Come, please have a seat." Zhu Yuandong ushered Jiang Qiao to the sofa.

Tao Ye, who was standing next to him, quickly poured a cup of tea and placed it on the table.

"Brother Zhou, what brings you here?" Zhu Yuandong asked with a smile.

"I just saw that the auctioneer is a person with special abilities, and since Mr. Zhu is only offering genuine items, I wanted to come and have a chat with him."

Jiang Qiao made no attempt to hide his pride as he spoke.

"Haha, I'm very happy to welcome Brother Zhou to come and chat with me." Zhu Yuandong laughed heartily.

Jiang Qiao smiled and began to activate the power of his double pupils.

Suddenly, a system notification sounded:

[The eerie simulation's cooldown period has ended.]

[Enable?]

"Huh?"

Jiang Qiao stopped what he was doing and suddenly had a bold idea!

Perhaps we could try infiltrating the "New Humans" and then using simulators to gather intelligence on them?

With that in mind, he temporarily abandoned the idea of instantly killing his opponent.

Let's do a simulation first.

Next, the two exchanged some views on special abilities and the future landscape.

Jiang Qiao believes that in the future world, people with special abilities should have more voices. Zhu Yuandong fully agrees with this and says that they have many like-minded people who are working towards this goal.

Zhu Yuandong gave Jiang Qiao a detailed introduction to the information about Evolvers and Awakeners, and informed him that the organization was actively recruiting talents in this field, so that everyone could work together to make progress and strive for their ideals!

In the end, the two chatted for half an hour, each with their own ulterior motives, and seemed to be having a very pleasant conversation.

Zhu Yuandong extended an invitation to Jiang Qiao, hoping that he could join the organization.

Jiang Qiao hesitated for a moment, then pretended to reluctantly agree to join the "New Humans" to see what it was like.

At the same time, he activated the [Weird Simulator].

...

[The eerie simulator is now activated]

[Currently available talents for fusion: "Man-eating without spitting out bones", "Famous Double Standards", "Woman's Lips", "Reflective Storm"...]

[Eating people without spitting out bones (A): You eat people without spitting out bones because you need calcium. With each person you eat, your body becomes stronger.]

[Famous Double Standards (A): You are internationally renowned for your double standards; you always apply two sets of standards to everything you do. You are lenient with yourself but strict with others. You then claim this is to nurture them, to let them experience the harsh realities of society as soon as possible.]

[A woman's lips (S): A woman's lips are alluring. You have fiery red lips that could steal the soul of even the most vengeful ghost.]

[Reflective Storm (SS): Any damage inflicted on you will be reflected back with a portion of it. Initially, only 50% will be reflected, but as the talent tier increases, the reflection effect will greatly improve, even exceeding 100%.]

Counter-damage storm.

Isn't this just like the anti-armor armor in the game?

This one can reflect all types of damage, making it an enhanced version.

Moreover, it has a 50% rebound effect from the very beginning.

Once your talent improves, it can even exceed 100% of the effect!

What does this mean?

Someone deals you 100 damage, and you reflect 150 or 200 back at them?

Holy crap!

8ЬοOK. Cоm

This is absolutely outrageous.

Where did all that extra damage come from?

Did the system automatically fill it in for you?

This talent is amazing!

Yes, it's possible!

In addition, Jiang Qiao also possessed the talent of "cold-blooded selfishness".

In order to maximize the extraction of information from the "new humans".

[Talent selection complete—]

[Currently fixed talents: "Lightning Thunder Fist" (S) (Tier 2), "Invincible Body" (A) (Tier 2), Double Pupils (SSR) (Tier 2), "Frankenstein's Monster" (SSR) (Tier 2), and "Strange Tales Chef" (S) (Tier 2)]

"Dice of Fate" (SSR), "Stalker" (S), "Survivor's Share" (SSR), "Demon's Possession" (SSR), "White Bone Fire" (SSR), "Heavenly Talisman" (SSR), "Critical Strike" (SS)...

[Current Talents: "Land-based Key Immortal" (SSR), "Reflective Storm" (SS), ... (omitted)]

[Currently available talent: "Cold-blooded Selfishness" (A)]

[Simulation begins——]

Day One. The supernatural resurges, terror descends. You stand on the balcony, taking out a golden keyboard and frantically typing away.

In an instant, the world was enveloped in an atmosphere of refined elegance and gentleness.

All the nearby vengeful spirits were killed by the spray.

At night, you capture several female ghosts and make them kneel on the keyboard and move.

You discovered that counter-damage can also be used at this time, and both of you are satisfied.

[The next day. You have two keyboards hanging from your waist, three keyboards on your back, and one keyboard in your hand.]

Keyboards are made of gold, silver, or bronze, with different materials corresponding to different situations.

This is the essence of ritual!

You altered your facial features, driving nearby vengeful spirits into the house where the survivors were.

After a bloodbath, you type away to avenge humanity!

[Day 3. In the early morning, you caught a few more female ghosts and were just about to make a move when...]

Suddenly, a female evolved being arrives at your residence and tells you that the organization has summoned you for a meeting.

You are very unhappy that you were interrupted.

So you pressure her to clean up the mess for you.

After it was all over, you learned her name: Yu Shasha.

You are completely indifferent to her hateful gaze because you have already smashed her to death with your keyboard.

After all, hating you but not being able to kill you makes living a kind of suffering.

It's better to be free sooner rather than later.

Jiang Qiao's lips twitched slightly when he saw this.

Holy crap.

Sure enough, this "cold-blooded selfishness" will nip any potential threat in the bud.

I remember the first time I used it.

The person who saved his life in the refugee camp also showed some dissatisfaction, and was then killed by him.

If you're not ruthless, you won't survive!

Day Four. You arrive at the meeting place. It is a wasteland covered with bone trees. Inside the wooden cabin next to it, all the evolved beings are already seated.

Zhu Yuandong was amazed that you were actually a dual Awakener.

Not only does it possess powerful defense, but it also has the strange ability to kill people by typing on a keyboard.

He had never heard of such an ability before.

He tells you that, according to the rules, you need to complete a task in order to officially become a member of the "New Humans" and go to the North District headquarters.

You agree.

He gives you orders: Go to Ancheng, join the Ancheng Awakened, and become a glorious undercover agent.

At the same time, he also assigned you ten Awakened Ones as subordinates.

⑧Bοoк.сОm

Ten men? They're probably sent to spy on me."

Jiang Qiao pursed his lips and glanced at Zhu Yuandong, who was sitting across the table with a kind face.

That old scoundrel is quite cunning.

No matter how cunning you are, you still have to drink my foot bath water.

He did not use his signature move "Lightning Strike Fist" or "White Bone Fire" in the simulation.

From beginning to end, he only revealed his "Overlord Body" and "Land-based Keyboard Immortal".

With some adjustments made to his face, the "new humans" have yet to discover his true identity as the "Celestial Master".

After all, no one could have imagined that one person could possess so many abilities!

Double-awakened individuals are already extremely rare, and Jiang Qiao has never heard of a triple-awakened individual in all the simulations he has done.

That's great!

Having many abilities is awesome!

That being said...

If the supernatural revival ends in the future, I might be able to open a plastic surgery hospital with my "Frankenstein's monster" persona.

...

Day 5. You lead this group of helpers to Ancheng. Along the way, you stop and go, directing them to attract and kill vengeful spirits for you.

They keep getting into dangerous situations, while your strength keeps increasing.

This made them very unhappy.

One of the awakened ones, named Yang Dong, warns you: the mission is to infiltrate Ancheng, not to eliminate the vengeful ghosts.

You asked with a smile: Are you teaching me how to do things?

He laughed as he smashed his head with the keyboard.

[Day Six. You and your assistant encounter two monks, one large and one small, on the road.]

The old monk was actually an evolved being!

However, he was seriously injured at this time and was on his deathbed.

You didn't help him because you felt the young monk beside him would be of great use to you.

Before he died, the old monk told the young monk a story.

Once upon a time, there was a mountain, and on the mountain was a temple, and in the temple lived a beautiful little nun.

[...]

[Day 11. You arrived near Ancheng with the little monk.]

At this point, only five of the ten workers remained, and all of them were injured, a truly pitiful sight.

You proactively contacted Zhu Yuandong and complained that the people he sent were incompetent.

He reassured you, promised to send new Awakened Ones to support you, and told you to remain in hiding and not act rashly in the meantime.

[Day 12. You received a warm welcome from the Ancheng Management Committee as an Awakened One.]

You understand that Ancheng has a population of millions, but currently only a few thousand are awakened, making it difficult to cope with sudden crises.

Your strength and dual awakening status are highly valued by them.

The first administrator had a private meeting with you.

[Day Thirteen. In the early morning, you are in a meeting with a few assistants when you suddenly realize that someone is watching you from outside.]

After observing quietly, you discover that a sleazy-looking short man is lurking on the roof of the opposite building!

His ability was probably disguise-type, so he almost didn't notice it at first.

You calmly ordered a few men to go out and capture him.

These "tools" may seem like weaklings to you, but they actually possess peak Tier 1 strength.

It's still possible to capture an awakened individual who has already been exposed.

You found a note on the dwarf.

It reads: Confirm the identity of the newcomer.

You killed the dwarf and had the other Awakened report it.

[Day Fourteen. You suddenly launched an attack and killed all five "tools".]

You left Ancheng and contacted Zhu Yuandong.

You tell him that you're unsure if your identities have been exposed and that you were assassinated. The others were all killed because they were wounded, and only you managed to escape.

Before you leave, you inadvertently discover that the organization that is trying to assassinate you is called the "Survival Society".

You deliberately asked Zhu Yuandong if this was an official organization.

(8) Book.com

His face darkened after hearing this. He told you that this wasn't an official organization, but Ancheng was indeed no longer safe. He then ordered you to leave Ancheng and go to Lincheng to assist with a major undertaking.

After ending his contact with you, Zhu Yuandong reported the information to the North District Chief Administrator.

The "New Humans" have begun investigating the "Survival Society."

Is this considered shifting the blame eastward?

Jiang Qiao chuckled.

That works too.

The fact that the "Survival Society" was spying on them was reported by the group of people sent by Zhu Yuandong.

Preconceived notions may lead to some unnecessary misunderstandings among the "new generation" about the "survival society".

So, don't peek at other people's pictures without permission.

So, when mud falls into your pants, even if it's not poop, it still looks like poop.

Jiang Qiao discovered that during this simulation, the "cold-blooded selfishness" talent was not as cruel as before.

...

[Day 15. You receive a secret mission to go to Lin City and assist in setting up a grand formation to sacrifice all the city's survivors.]

You showed an excited expression after receiving the task.

Zhu Yuandong was very satisfied.

But what you're really thinking about is how to claim the credit for yourself!

[...]

[Day 18. You and the little monk saw piles of white bones on the highway, with teeth marks on them.]

Following the skeleton, you arrived at a village by the roadside.

The village is inhabited by many eerie animals.

There are jackals, tigers, and leopards, as well as cattle, sheep, pigs, and horses.

Vegetarians, carnivores, and omnivores live together in harmony.

You even saw a tiger licking lice off a cow.

This is truly a ghost story!

Even ghostly animals can get lice.

[Day 19. You take out your beloved golden keyboard and have a young monk consecrate it.]

With the graceful dance of your fingertips.

Golden keyboard rained down from the sky.

You can't help but burst into song: "I'll accompany you to watch the keyboard rain fall on this earth, and let your flesh fall onto my lips."

In the evening, you had a sumptuous meal.

At this point, all your talents except for "Double Pupils" have reached the fourth tier!

[On the twentieth day, you encountered a strange cave in the mountains.]

You witnessed a vengeful ghost passing by, only to be pulled inside by a sudden, immense suction force.

You've marked it: Qianyuan Mountain, Shili Slope!

[...]

[Day 22. After a journey of stops and starts, you have finally arrived in Lincheng.]

You discover that Lincheng is very strange, with many ragged and vengeful ghosts resembling beggars roaming around it.

You let the little monks get closer to them.

These vengeful spirits will swarm over and beg the young monk for food!

These foods are the body's vital energy and blood!

Seeing that the little monks were about to be drained, you quickly pulled out the keyboard and typed a few keys to kill them all.

A stream of ghostly energy, mixed with traces of blood and qi, entered your body.

You discover that your invincible body is undergoing a qualitative change!

This qualitative change is not an upgrade in level, but a fundamental improvement; it is a transformation from A-level to S-level!

You are overjoyed!

Unfortunately, you did not find any more vengeful ghosts carrying blood and qi.

Because after absorbing blood and qi, the vengeful spirit will quickly digest it.

Therefore, you turned your attention to Lincheng.

8. Book. som

Turning their gaze toward Lincheng?"

Upon seeing this, Jiang Qiao sighed inwardly, thinking, "No wonder he has such a cold-blooded and selfish personality."

For both evolved beings and ordinary people, this is a natural disaster.

The kind that people hate and dogs despise.

[Day 23. You found a small town that had been converted into a refugee camp.]

You discover that the entire refugee camp doesn't have many people, maybe only 200,000.

Many evolved beings swagger in and out of here.

You entered the camp with the little monk and received a warm welcome from the camp administrator.

During the conversation, I learned that his name was Ma Baoguo, and that before the supernatural resurgence, he was a village chief and the master of Hunyuan Tongzi Gong.

Because of the high number of casualties in Lincheng and the shortage of manpower, he was temporarily put in charge of the administration until the military took over.

[Day 24. You walked around the area and found that a large number of evolved beings had gathered in some corners of the town.]

These places often exude an eerie atmosphere.

Upon closer inspection, you realize that they don't resemble vengeful ghosts at all, but rather eeriness and mystery.

You've memorized these locations.

[Day 25. You met with the person in charge of the "New Humans" in Lincheng. He told you that his name was Dai Yi.]

He received a mission from headquarters to prepare for a grand ceremony in Lincheng.

When you ask him about the specifics, he is vague, only telling you that the planning for Lincheng began on the third day after the supernatural resurgence.

This is a matter of great importance; there can be no mistakes.

"Similar to the bizarre?"

"They started planning on the third day?"

Jiang Qiao immediately wrote down these two important pieces of information.

Especially the second one.

"These guys are incredibly fast."

[Day 26. After you have stealthily moved, secretly proceed to a deployment point.]

The person in charge in Lincheng is only at the third level of strength.

Your stealth ability has reached level four, allowing you to move freely without any obstacles; he simply cannot detect you.

You dug through the soil and found a ceramic jar, half-filled with blood.

These bloods are very contradictory.

On the one hand, it looks vibrant and full of life, as if it had just been pulled from a person.

But at the same time, they are filled with a dense, eerie atmosphere.

You secretly took some, intending to take it home and study it.

[...]

[Day 30. After investigation, you discovered that the blood likely originated from a very terrifying and bizarre source.]

Moreover, this strangeness feels very familiar to you.

It seems to be... the aura of the Bone Tree!

[Day 31. Dai Yi finds you and tells you that the formation is about to be completed.]

In fact, you've been secretly studying their arrangements these past few days.

In the evening, Ma Baoguo hosted a banquet for all the evolved beings, thanking them for their hard work and wishing them a better tomorrow.

Dai Yi took the stage to give a speech, subtly telling everyone: Our goal is to end everything now and allow all the survivors in the city to have a tomorrow!

Ma Baoguo, sitting in the audience, was moved to tears and couldn't resist performing a lightning-fast five-whip combo.

[Day 32. After investigation, you finally found a loophole in the formation and secretly tampered with it.]

That evening, Dai Yi told you that the formation would be officially activated the next day.

He wants you to leave the city and contact the "Newtype" combat squadron that is lurking nearby.

You assured him that you would complete the task.

After sneaking away, you arrive at the address Dai Yi told you about, where there are more than two hundred evolved beings.

At this moment, they are waiting for a signal from Lincheng.

But what awaited them was a golden rain of keyboard shots, smashing them all into a bloody pulp.

[Day Thirty-Three. Dai Yi didn't wait for you and the combat brigade. He believed you might have met with an accident, things had changed, and he had to launch a hasty operation!]

You stand on the mountain outside the town and see the refugee camp engulfed in flames, with explosions and cries of agony everywhere!

In the gray light, you see a pale red curtain of light enveloping the entire town!

[On the thirty-fourth day, you hear the wailing of vengeful ghosts and smell the pervasive stench of decay.]

You witnessed the soaring resentment transforming into terrified faces in the sky, among which Ma Baoguo's remorseful little face looked like a photo booth picture.

⑻ЬоΟк. COM

Nourished by the blood and qi, countless fingers covered the earth in the town, and white bone trees sprouted from the soil.

The entire camp has been transformed into an orchard for the evolved beings!

However, this is only the result of a small portion of the Qi and blood; the majority of the Qi and blood is preparing to be transported to an unknown place through some channel.

However, because you secretly sabotaged the formation, this vital energy was not sent away and instead began to spread throughout the city.

At the same time, the beggar ghost from Lincheng was attracted over.

They're like cats seeing fish, dogs seeing meat, or Ultraman seeing a monster.

His eyes lit up as he rushed over.

Seeing things were going badly, Dai Yi tried to drive away the evil spirit, only to be betrayed by you!

[Day 35. The beggar ghost steals your life force like it's money, while you harvest it like cutting leeks.]

Your skills are starting to improve by leaps and bounds, skyrocketing!

That night, apart from having "double pupils," you broke through to the fifth tier in all aspects and reached the peak of the fifth tier!

Your "Reflect Damage Storm" has achieved 100% reflection effect!

Your "critical hit" effect has reached an 80% chance to trigger double damage!

[On the thirty-sixth day, you retrieved the remaining "blood from the earthenware jar" from underground in Lincheng.]

You made them into a spicy blood curd dish!

After consuming it, your other talent levels did not break through.

However, the "Overlord Body" has been upgraded!

This advancement is not about going from level five to level six!

Instead, they started from Rank A and began their breakthrough towards Rank S!

...

Holy crap!

That's awesome!

Jiang Qiao was deeply moved by what he saw, and so excited that he couldn't help but get up and walk several steps.

Another path leading to the sixth tier!

What if I go to Hualong Mountain first, and then come to Lincheng?

Is there any hope of directly reaching the seventh rank?

Damn it!

This is so awesome, there's no hole left!

and!

The "Overlord Body" can actually be upgraded in quality, breaking through from Grade A to Grade S!

what does that mean?

This means that other talents also have the potential to disrupt the existing quality pattern!

So.

Can an SSR-level talent be upgraded to a higher quality?

In fact, Jiang Qiao has already sensed that even among SSR characters, there are some differences between them.

The highest possible rank is currently SSR, which is why everyone is crammed together.

"Double pupils" is one example; so far, the highest level it has reached is the third stage.

The upgrade is extremely difficult.

Moreover, it deals damage at level two as well as level three, and at level three it directly creates a ghost realm.

What about the fourth order?

What about the fifth order?

Jiang Qiao had a premonition that as his level increased, "double pupils" would bring him an unexpected and great surprise!

He hasn't forgotten.

When this talent was first introduced, the system description said that it could connect to a certain strange place!

"Brother Jiang, what's wrong?"

Zhu Yuandong was puzzled when he saw Jiang Qiao's excited expression.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I can't help but feel excited when I think about the benefits of joining the New Humans."

Jiang Qiao gave a perfunctory answer.

To everyone's surprise, Zhu Yuandong took it seriously and laughed heartily.

"Young man, joining the New Humans is absolutely the best decision you've ever made in your life!"

"That's right!"

Jiang Qiao also said with a smile.

On the thirty-seventh day, you encountered a squad of evolved beings.]

They were unaware that Lincheng had already prepared a wedding dress for you and was even preparing to eat the fruit of the White Bone Tree.

You punched these gluttons to death.

[Day 38. You encounter the Evolver team again, carrying a coffin inside which sits Zhu Yuandong.]

Upon seeing you, Zhu Yuandong launched an attack without saying a word!

But soon, he was injured.

He will also bear a share of all the damage he inflicts on you!

You possess a level 5 "Overlord Body" that grants you immunity to damage, so you only suffered minor superficial injuries.

But he accepted the severe injury!

You found a "red fruit" in him.

Through torture, you learn that the day before the supernatural resurgence, he found a strange seed in the release pond of Ci'an Temple.

After careful cultivation, this fruit was produced.

You asked him what the Lincheng Grand Array was trying to do.

It turned out that he wasn't quite sure either.

He was shocked by your strength and exclaimed in disbelief, "You're actually a third-stage Awakener!"

You smile and tell him, "No, that's not it."

Then, he was sent on his way with a "Lightning Thunder Fist".

His eyes were filled with fear as he died.

...

Ci'an Temple!

Jiang Qiao silently memorized the place name, then took out his phone to search for it.

We discovered that this was a small temple not far from Jieqiao Town.

This temple occupies a small area, but its incense is very popular.

It is said that the Bodhisattva inside is very efficacious.

People come in drives every day to offer incense and fulfill their vows.

"Third stage of double pupils!"

Jiang Qiao realized that sparing Zhu Yuandong's life was the right thing to do.

The simulations after incorporating "new humans" have yielded an astonishing amount of information!

[Day 39. Because of the fall of Lincheng, the little monk has been somewhat depressed these past two days.]

Tell him that this is what the apocalypse is like. It's all the fault of the "new humans" and the evolved ones; they sacrificed the entire city for their own selfish reasons.

Otherwise, those survivors would still be alive and well.

The young monk is unaware of your actions during the Lincheng incident.

He only saw you kill the evolved beings, but the great formation in Lincheng was set up by the evolved beings.

Therefore, I think you are a good person.

Amid his blessing, you swallowed the vermilion fruit.

Your "double pupils" are beginning to break through to the third stage!

[...]

[Day 42. You did not conceal your tracks along the way, so you were attacked by wave after wave of evolved beings.]

You send the little monk to fight, while you sit on the side eating spicy snacks.

The young monk's ability is "consecration," which allows ordinary objects to possess the power to ward off evil spirits.

So even though he's a support character, he can turn anything he picks up into a weapon.

Under your tutelage, the young monk quickly became a qualified warrior, and his "enlightenment" ability was greatly enhanced.

Tell him that stopping war with force and killing with killing is the way to stop chaos in a chaotic world!

[On the forty-third day, a coffin fell from the sky, and a woman with three mouths crawled out of it.]

He is the North District Manager of the "New Humans"!

You captured her and learned many secrets from her.

The most important one is the exact location of the North China headquarters!

It's actually near Ancheng!

[...]

[Day 48. You arrived in Bincheng.]

The Bincheng refugee camp had been wiped out by the human-skinned ghosts forty days ago, leaving behind a pile of rotting corpses.

At this moment, the sky over the entire city of Bincheng was ablaze with fiery clouds.

You see a woman in a floral shirt, with two braids, one in front and one behind, walking through the city in the distance under the setting sun.

You sneak up and stab her in the back!

The fifth-tier peak "Lightning Thunder Fist" combined with "White Bone Fire" triggered a critical hit effect!

The girl with the braid was instantly and seriously injured!

Once she regained her senses, she immediately fought back!

⑧вσOK. com

The result was a 100% damage reflection, which killed myself!

You absorbed the ghostly energy from her, and your "Lightning Thunder Fist" has successfully advanced to the sixth level!

...

"He actually went back to Bincheng."

Jiang Qiao thought he had no chance to participate in the simulation in Bincheng this time.

Unexpectedly, the girl with the braids still couldn't escape her fate and became a stepping stone for her own progress.

"The Bincheng refugee camp really can't do without me."

Jiang Qiao silently gave himself a thumbs up!

Without him, the refugee camp would have been taken care of by the human-skinned ghosts on the eighth day.

Humans are so vulnerable when faced with vengeful spirits!

In fact, Jiang Qiao has also gathered some information through these few days of simulation.

After the paranormal resurgence, at least half of the cities did not survive the initial period.

Either the refugee camp was destroyed as soon as it was established.

Or perhaps no refugee camp was ever established at all.

The reasons are varied.

Some were destroyed because vengeful ghosts came knocking on their door.

Some of these disturbances were caused by awakened individuals vying for control.

In some cases, insufficient supplies made it impossible to maintain the refugee camp.

In the end times, human life is as worthless as grass.

Basic order can be maintained in the refugee camp with difficulty.

Once the refugee camp is destroyed, most survivors will likely face certain death.

...

[Day 48. You plan to travel to Ancheng to find the Northern Headquarters of the "New Humans".]

You have discovered an ancient tomb near Yunshan.

You are curious because you passed through this area twice before and did not notice it.

Let the young monk go in and check.

[Day 49. The little monk did not emerge from the tomb, but you also did not sense anything terrifying or eerie inside.]

You tried taking two steps inside.

There was nothing but impenetrable darkness.

You left the ancient tomb, silently memorizing this place: Peach Blossom Ridge in the Cloud Mountains.

[On the fiftieth day, you wake up to find the little monk sitting beside you.]

He asked you with a smile why you didn't wait for him.

However, you are horrified and shocked!

Because under the double pupil vision, there is nothing in front of you.

You couldn't detect the little monk's presence at all.

You realize that the little monk has become a kind of supernatural tale about rules!

You got rid of him in some way.

Jiang Qiao's eyes narrowed.

Holy crap!

This cemetery can actually turn people into a kind of supernatural tale!

This was the first time he had witnessed the creation of a ghost story firsthand.

The leader of the new humans once told him this.

The so-called ghost stories are those that, for some unknown reason, have fallen into the gap between two worlds.

They were caught in a superposition of being neither alive nor dead, and both alive and dead!

So, is this tomb the gap between two worlds?

But why is it a tomb?

That's weird, isn't it?

...

Day 51. You encounter a "hellish fairy tale".

This is a little girl wearing a blood-red hat and leading a two-headed wolf.

You severely injured her, but you couldn't kill her!

However, she provided you with a large amount of high-quality energy, successfully raising your "Overlord Body" to the sixth tier!

[...]

[Day 55. You did not find the North District Headquarters of the "New Humans" near Ancheng; they must have moved.]

Your "double pupils" transformation is complete, reaching the third stage!

You possess the realm of demons.

Having found nothing near Ancheng, you prepare to secretly head to Haicheng!
