Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 100 Infinite Reboot
"Is it the vengeful ghost from that coffin? It really is still in this room."

Hearing the dull, stiff footsteps coming from the darkness, Yang Xiao and Xiao Chengtai showed no panic whatsoever, and even had the leisure to try to find the source of the footsteps.

They possessed all the memories of the original owner before leaving the Ghost Post Office and had extensive experience dealing with the supernatural. A single, unknown ghost was not enough to make Yang Xiao and the others wary.

"They're coming this way."

suddenly.

Yang Xiao noticed that the footsteps were getting closer and closer, clearly indicating that the vengeful ghost in the darkness was approaching them.

"They've started targeting us, but because the killing pattern hasn't been triggered, the vengeful ghost hasn't attacked us directly."

Yang Xiao's eyes flickered slightly.

However, this old house from the Republican era was extremely special. Even he couldn't see through the extreme darkness inside the room, but he could make a rough judgment based on the direction of the footsteps.

"It's just a vengeful ghost, I wonder if it's the one Li Hui is looking for." Xiao Chengtai, standing to the side, also looked in the direction from which the footsteps came.

If he remembered correctly, that direction was where the wooden cabinets were placed.

Followed by.

Xiao Chengtai's body was enveloped by a chilling aura. At this moment, he gradually merged with the darkness in the room, as if he had transformed into a real vengeful ghost, rapidly advancing towards the direction from which the footsteps came.

The moment Xiao Chengtai began to act, Yang Xiao sensed it. However, he did not follow Xiao Chengtai toward the room. Instead, he prepared to provide support and suppress the evil spirit at any time.

In Yang Xiao's view.

Xiao Chengtai probably intended to test the vengeful ghost himself, and then, together with the ghost dream spirit he controlled, suppress the vengeful ghost in one fell swoop.

And indeed, just as Yang Xiao had thought, Xiao Chengtai did indeed hold such a view.

However, the result was not as expected.

Xiao Chengtai, who was walking, did not meet the owner of the footsteps.

The interior space of the house seemed to expand infinitely, but despite Xiao Chengtai's rapid advance, he could never reach the other end of the room, as if he were trapped in a maze.

"A strange paranormal phenomenon, but this is not the power of the Ghost Domain. Although Li Hui said before that his Ghost Domain could not manifest in the old house, if other vengeful ghosts inside the old house had Ghost Domains, they would definitely be suppressed by the Ghost Painting Paranormal Phenomenon!"

Xiao Chengtai stopped in his tracks.

At this moment, an unknown supernatural change had occurred in the room. Even if he continued to walk forward, he would most likely not be able to encounter the vengeful ghost in the room.

Tap, tap, tap...

However, Xiao Chengtai stopped moving, but the dull, stiff footsteps in the darkness did not stop. The sound was very close to him, as if a vengeful ghost was stepping in front of him. However, there was only extreme darkness in front of Xiao Chengtai, and he could not touch anything when he reached out.

"Yang Xiao, the situation is a bit complicated. I can't find the vengeful ghost. This room seems to be expanding infinitely, and there's no end in sight. Do you have any ideas on how to deal with this?"

After stopping, Xiao Chengtai asked the darkness behind him.

Although both he and Yang Xiao were messengers who delivered all the letters at the Ghost Post Office, there were still some differences between them. Xiao Chengtai's supernatural abilities were related to contact and required direct confrontation with vengeful ghosts, while Yang Xiao was more adept at dealing with such bizarre phenomena.

But the weird thing is.

His question received no response.

The only sound in the room was the heavy echo of footsteps, as if Yang Xiao had already left and was no longer in the room.

"Ok?"

Xiao Chengtai immediately sensed something was wrong.

Even if Yang Xiao didn't have any good ideas, it's unusual that he didn't even respond.

"Is it me or him?" This situation made Xiao Chengtai realize that one of them might be completely targeted by a vengeful ghost, and they were at risk of being attacked by the ghost at any time.

Even so, Xiao Chengtai's face remained calm.

Although Li Hui's ghost domain could not affect the old house, the old house could not suppress the ghost painting's supernatural power either. In the pitch-black room, there was a hazy gray paper ash floating around, but neither the extreme darkness nor the hazy paper ash could completely invade the other side.

But that's enough.

For these wandering souls, they can only live in the world of paintings. However, this situation has both advantages and disadvantages. In the world of paintings, these wandering souls cannot be completely killed.

The footsteps stopped!

Sudden.

Xiao Chengtai realized that there were no more footsteps coming from in front of him. It seemed that the evil spirit in the darkness had stopped walking, or that the evil spirit had reached the place it wanted to go.

However, what Xiao Chengtai did not notice was that a tall figure stood in the darkness beside him.

The figure blended into the darkness, obscuring its features, but a human silhouette was vaguely visible. It was very tall, a full head taller than Xiao Chengtai.

"Clap!"

The figure in the darkness then stirred.

Its palm gripped Xiao Chengtai's neck, and with a forceful pull, it tried to break Xiao Chengtai's neck.

Instant time.

Xiao Chengtai reacted immediately and subconsciously tried to resist. However, something terrifying happened. Xiao Chengtai found that his supernatural abilities were directly suppressed, and he froze on the spot, unable to use the supernatural abilities he controlled.

next moment.

A sound like bones breaking came from the darkness.

Xiao Chengtai's neck was as thin as paper when it was torn off by the tall figure, but no blood spurted out. The flesh and blood of Xiao Chengtai's wound were not that of an ordinary person; it looked like wood or a painting, lifeless and eerie.

thump!
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Chengtai's headless body fell to the floor of the room, with only his head still held in the hands of the vengeful ghost.

"How can this be……"

On the eve of his unconsciousness, Xiao Chengtai's mind was still filled with disbelief, as if he was questioning the extent of the vengeful ghost's terror, or as if he couldn't understand when the vengeful ghost had come to his side.

Then came endless darkness, and Xiao Chengtai's consciousness completely faded away...

And on the other side.

The battle between Li Hui and the vengeful ghost has begun.

A third color appeared in the eerie space, which was originally black and white: a hazy gray scene with paper dust floating everywhere, gradually invading and affecting this eerie space.

Although Li Hui was also completely naked at this time, as ordinary clothes could not appear in this supernatural space, he had a mobile phone-shaped tattoo on the back of his hand.

Just like when he first faced the attack from the vengeful ghost that looked like a little boy, the cell phone tattoo also appeared in this supernatural space, or more accurately, it was imprinted on Li Hui's consciousness.

All of Li Hui's current supernatural abilities originate from the cell phone tattoo on the back of his hand. This means that even in a supernatural space of a certain kind, he can still use the supernatural abilities of ghost drawings and buses.

And that's not all.

Li Hui believed that even if he was attacked by a ghost dream, the phone tattoo would still be present on the back of his hand in the dream space, allowing him to use supernatural abilities in that dream space.

If that's the case, then nightmares will no longer be scary.

After all, the reason why ghost dreams are so terrifying is that other supernatural beings cannot be brought into the dream space. This is fatal for ghost tamers. Once they are pulled into the dream space, they become like ordinary people, or even worse. How can an ordinary person fight against ghost dreams?
While thinking.

The grayish ash completely permeated this eerie space, the original black and white colors faded away, turning into a gray blur, and everything was assimilated by this gloom.

Under the collision of their supernatural forces.

That vengeful ghost was clearly not as terrifying as 70% of the ghost paintings and supernatural phenomena!
But the vengeful ghost clearly did not give up its attack on Li Hui, and continued to walk towards him, the distance between them rapidly decreasing.

See this.

Li Hui also began to take action.

With a wave of his hand, a second Li Hui, and a third Li Hui, appeared in this supernatural space...

If the supernatural can be used normally, it means that the ability to infinitely generate and superimpose these supernatural abilities is also the same.

next moment.

The ghostly figures that emerged from these strange drawings blocked the progress of the middle-aged woman whose figure appeared somewhat ethereal.

They possessed supernatural abilities almost identical to Li Hui's, including the ability of the supernatural bus. Their hands reached out in unison to grab at the ghost's body, trying to suppress the ghost in front of them as soon as possible.

"Pat," "Pat," "Pat"...

A dozen or so figures, all with their hands gripping the vengeful ghost, created an atmosphere akin to a dozen weakened versions of supernatural buses simultaneously crashing into a single ghost.

This terrifying supernatural collision was something that a dismembered supernatural puzzle piece could not withstand. The middle-aged woman, whose body appeared somewhat ethereal, froze on the spot, and her supernatural presence fell into silence.

However, just when Li Hui thought the vengeful ghost had been completely suppressed and the attack had ended, an unexpected incident occurred.

A strange figure suddenly appeared in this eerie space.

That was a figure exactly like the vengeful ghost he had suppressed!

Wearing the same white robes of an unknown style, with the same illusory figure, and no difference in facial features, even its actions after appearing were exactly the same as the vengeful ghost, taking steps to quickly approach Li Hui, as if the two were carved from the same mold.

"This is... the ability to infinitely reboot?"

For a moment, Li Hui frowned, and for the first time, a look of doubt appeared on his face. The ghost's ability reminded him of the ghost messenger's 'infinite restart'. Similarly, this ability was also very similar to the ghost painting's 'infinite derivation'.

Immediately afterward, Li Hui had a sudden thought.

Immediately, three figures identical to him surrounded him, preparing to suppress the newly appeared vengeful ghost. As for whether the other party truly possessed the ability to infinitely restart, the answer would soon be known.

The result is the same as before.

The unintelligent ghost didn't know to dodge and was quickly surrounded by the three figures. The moment it was attacked, its supernatural power vanished.

at the same time.

Dachang City.

Yang Jian's resurrection ceremony has reached its most crucial moment.

By this time, quite some time had passed since he hanged himself, and his body had begun to emit a faint stench of decay. If it weren't for the headless ghostly figure covering his corpse, Yang Jian's body would probably have rotted away long ago.

However, this situation began to change after half of Yang Jian's body sank into the Ghost Mirror. The stench on his corpse disappeared, the decay improved, and even the dense lividity began to fade.

The Ghost Mirror seemed to be reversing time, as if it were trying to bring Yang Jian's body back to the state before he hanged himself, and even his memories were being restored.

"Crack!"

At that moment, a small crack appeared on the surface of the ghost mirror, from which a cold wind blew out, as if there was a hollow passage behind the mirror leading to an unknown place.

Almost at the same time, the confrontation between the Ghost Mirror and the headless ghost reached a strange balance. Yang Jian's corpse stopped sinking into the Ghost Mirror and instead broke free from its restraints, falling from mid-air and kneeling on the ground.

Strangely, Yang Jian's head disappeared into the ghost mirror, as if it had been eaten by the mirror, leaving only a headless corpse outside, emitting a faint stench of decay.

The headless ghost was just an incomplete ghost; it had no head. So when it fought with the Ghost Mirror for Yang Jian's body, it only managed to take Yang Jian's body, while its head was uncontrollably sucked into the Ghost Mirror.

At the same time, something even stranger happened.

Inside the ghost mirror.

Yang Jian's head suddenly twitched slightly, and then his eyes snapped open.

Yang Jian was resurrected, but his resurrection was obviously not perfect and had great flaws. After all, only Yang Jian's head was resurrected in the Ghost Mirror, while his body was left outside.

next moment.

Outside the ghost mirror, the five headless corpses stood up strangely, reached into the mirror, grabbed Yang Jian's head, and pulled him out forcefully.

Soon, Yang Jian's head was pulled out of the mirror by those hands and placed on his neck. Finally, the eerie headless ghost pieced the two together.

This scene was terrifying.

Because Yang Jian's body was facing the Ghost Mirror, but his head was facing outwards, it was as if Yang Jian's head and neck had turned half a circle, so that he was facing backwards with the back of his head facing forwards, and his body and head were completely reversed.

"I'm alive?"

At this moment, Yang Jian, who was facing his back, had no expression on his face. He seemed to have lost all the emotions of a living person, appearing cold and numb, like a demon that had crawled out of the depths of hell!
