Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 155 The Final Result
In the deathly silent, dimly lit village.

Strange coffins were placed steadily on the ground of the village, stretching out in all directions in a dense array, seemingly without end, filling the entire village with coffins.

This is a world of coffins, and also a world of ghosts, because every coffin contains a vengeful spirit!
These vengeful ghosts are all real; they are not fake. All of them look exactly the same, as if they were copied from a template. At this moment, dozens or even hundreds of vengeful ghosts walked out of the coffin with stiff steps and surrounded a figure in the center of the village.

This scene was quite terrifying.

If an ordinary person saw this bizarre scene, they would probably be so frightened that their legs would go weak or they might even faint. However, the figure standing in the center of the village did not react at all, as if he did not see these evil spirits.

obviously.

This figure was no ordinary person either.

The face of the dead man, dark blue-black, was expressionless, his eyes were empty and lifeless, and beneath the eerie burial shroud was a bulging belly, inside which something seemed to be constantly writhing, making it all the more unsettling.

Soon the starving ghost also reacted.

Its gaze fell upon the eerie figures that were constantly closing in on it. The next moment, the starving ghost opened its mouth wide.

In an instant.

The hungry ghost's jaw split open, revealing a mouthful of pitch-black, ferocious teeth. It then lunged at the head of the nearest vengeful ghost, while simultaneously reaching out its hand to grab the ghost's body and devour it.

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

However, the hungry ghost only took one bite, devouring half of the ghost messenger's head, when the surrounding vengeful ghosts attacked it at the same time, their cold, stiff hands covering its body.

For an instant.

A terrifying supernatural outburst belonging to the ghost messengers.

Each vengeful ghost possesses the same abilities as the ghost messengers. This is a superposition of supernatural phenomena, a terrifying supernatural phenomenon created by infinite restarts. Under the attack of these ghost messengers, the supernatural phenomena within the starving ghost's body were directly suppressed, plunging it into silence.

A single vengeful ghost cannot suppress a starving ghost, but when these ghost messengers work together, the resulting supernatural attack is definitely not as simple as one plus one equals two.

Because each of them possesses terrifying supernatural power capable of suppressing 15 vengeful ghosts, even an S-class source vengeful ghost like the Hungry Ghost cannot withstand it.

soon.

A wave of darkness, as black as ink, swept over the hungry ghost's body, along with the surrounding ghost coffins and the figures of numerous 'ghost messengers'.

Gradually.

The scene of Huanggang Village has disappeared.

Instead, there was a patch of inky darkness. If you looked down from above, you would see that this darkness was rectangular, resembling a huge black coffin.

"Click," "click," "click"...

in the dark.

The sound of something being chewed was heard, followed by the chewing sounds of eating. The sounds were not loud, but they were very clear. Combined with the eerie surroundings, the whole thing gave off a strange and terrifying feeling.

The darkness soon receded again.

Only a ghost coffin remained on the spot.

However, the paint on this coffin was not a bewitching red, but an eerie black, an extreme darkness without any other colors, as if even light shining on it would be completely swallowed up.

A terrifying figure lay in the coffin. The eyes of the dead man were closed on his dark blue face, and something was constantly writhing inside his swollen belly. Upon closer inspection, one could see that his belly was faintly tinged with black.

This wasn't the original color of the starving ghost's stomach; rather, it was because there was a cloud of black gas inside, constantly churning as if trying to escape...

.........

"Logically speaking, the number of vengeful spirits inside a starving ghost is higher than the number of vengeful spirits that the ghost messengers can suppress. Since the ghost messengers cannot suppress the starving ghost, the starving ghost will most likely win in the confrontation. However, the truth cannot be judged solely by appearances..."

outside world.

In the presidential suite on the top floor of the Ping An Hotel, Li Hui stared into deep thought at the darkness inside the ghost coffin in front of him.

indeed.

The hungry ghost is not in a 'lone' state, and its own terror is no less than that of the ghost messengers, and may even be stronger than the ghost messengers at this stage. However, in reality, the hungry ghost is the one who is on the defensive.

Because the ghost domain of the starving ghost is not as strong as that of the ghost messenger, it is destined to be unable to escape from the ghost domain of the ghost messenger. Furthermore, the ghost messenger has the ability to restart infinitely, so even if it is suppressed by the starving ghost, it will restart the moment it is suppressed.

From all perspectives, it seems that as long as the hungry ghost cannot completely suppress the ghost messenger's ghost realm, it will be unable to do anything about it. However, the ghost messenger cannot suppress the hungry ghost either. Since both are fierce ghosts, they are not afraid of being exhausted. Therefore, on the surface, the final result will be a continued stalemate between the two.

But Li Hui, who had read the original novel, knew the truth.

When the supernatural abilities of the ghost messengers reach a certain level, a terrifying mutation will occur, and they will develop abilities similar to their 'infinite derivation', regenerating countless ghost coffins and ghost messengers.

Furthermore, everything that the ghost messengers recreated was real. In a sense, it was even more special than Li Hui's 'infinite derivation' because it was all real and not ordinary supernatural creations.

In the original work.

When Yang Jian pulled Wang Xiaoming and the others out of the ghost realm of the ghost messengers, he also took a ghost coffin with him.

The coffin was an item revived by the ghost messenger, but it still existed after leaving the ghost messenger's ghost realm and did not disappear.

Even when Yang Jian dealt with the music box curse, he was lying in that ghost coffin, which shows how special the supernatural events that the ghost messengers restarted were.

"So, all things considered, after the anomaly occurred, countless ghost messengers appeared simultaneously and attacked the starving ghost. With the supernatural forces combined, the starving ghost was completely suppressed because it was already in a 'lone' state under such circumstances."

"But that's not necessarily true. After all, if the hungry ghost successfully devours one of the ghost messengers, then given the characteristics of the hungry ghost, it can also master the supernatural abilities of the ghost messengers, and vice versa..."

Li Hui's mind raced as he mentally calculated who would emerge victorious in the battle between the ghost messengers and the starving ghosts.

He did not choose to intervene, but instead let the starving ghosts and the ghost messengers fight each other on their own.

Because he was also very curious about which was more terrifying, the ghost messenger or the starving ghost, given that their supernatural strengths were not significantly different and could not create a one-sided situation.

And it seems his question will soon be answered.

Under Li Hui's gaze.

The interior of the ghost coffin before him suddenly changed. The pitch-black darkness gradually dissipated, and at the same time, a terrifying figure slowly emerged.

"Are we going to get results so soon?"

Upon seeing this, Li Hui's expression shifted slightly, his gaze fixed on the scene before him, and he prepared himself.

Suddenly, a rusty coffin nail appeared in his hand, and the amount of ashes floating in the room became increasingly dense.

at the same time.

An open space outside the experimental base.

Inside the awning, Wang Xiaoming and Li Jun sat there, their mouths opening and closing intermittently, clearly talking about something.

"Professor Wang, are you saying that Li Hui's condition for 'borrowing' the ghost coffin was to bring Wei Jing back to life? But how is that possible? Wei Jing has clearly been resurrected as a vengeful ghost. Weren't the supernatural events at the experimental base and training base caused by Wei Jing after his vengeful ghost resurrected?"

After listening to Wang Xiaoming's story, Li Jun's face was full of disbelief, not understanding how Li Hui planned to fulfill his conditions.

Is it really possible for a human to bring back to life a person who has been resurrected as a vengeful ghost, no longer a living person but a vengeful spirit?
Li Jun expressed deep doubts about this.

However, Wang Xiaoming, sitting on the other side, appeared very calm. He slowly said, "Sometimes, the so-called 'coming back to life' does not mean actually bringing someone back to life, but rather letting them 'live' in another form."

"Who says that a vengeful ghost can't 'come back to life' after it revives? You know, my experiment is to transform the ghost tamer into a vengeful ghost with the consciousness of a living person. As long as Li Hui makes that ghost have Wei Jing's consciousness, then he can also say that he has made Wei Jing 'come back to life'."

to be frank.

Wang Xiaoming was also looking forward to Wei Jing's return.

His previous experiments had already been unsuccessful, so if he could see a successful case from Li Hui, it would be very inspiring for his subsequent research.

"But……"

On the other side, Li Jun wanted to say something more, but before he could finish speaking, his expression suddenly changed. As if he had sensed something, he swallowed back what he was about to say and then looked solemnly down the mountain.

"what happened?"

Seeing this, Wang Xiaoming asked a question, and looked in the direction Li Jun was looking.

"That is……?"

Under their watchful eyes, a pitch-black darkness spread toward the experimental base at an incredible speed, engulfing everything in its path.

It was midday, but the bright sunlight failed to dispel the darkness and illuminate what was inside. Instead, the light that shone down was completely swallowed up by the inky darkness.

"Professor Wang, be careful. This is a ghost realm, and it looks like the ghost realm of the vengeful ghost that caused the paranormal events at the experimental base and training base before. It's the vengeful ghost that escaped from that ghost coffin."

Li Jun, who was standing to the side, said loudly.

"Damn it, wasn't this vengeful ghost imprisoned by Li Hui? He even took the ghost coffin. How come it suddenly appears here now?"

While speaking.

A strange, eerie green flame was reflected in Li Jun's eyes; it was one of the vengeful spirits he controlled, codenamed 'Ghost Fire'!
next moment.

A sinister, bluish-green ghostly aura emanated from Li Jun, enveloping both himself and Wang Xiaoming beside him. He intended to move Wang Xiaoming to a safe place first, and then report to headquarters to find a way to deal with this vengeful ghost.

"Wait first!"

However, before Li Jun could take any further action, Wang Xiaoming hurriedly stopped him and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the master of that dark ghost realm is not that vengeful ghost, but Wei Jing!"

what?
Wei Jing?

Upon hearing this, Li Jun was taken aback and had some doubts in his heart, but he stopped moving. He did not use his Ghost Domain ability to take Wang Xiaoming away immediately, but instead looked warily at the darkness that was getting closer and closer to him, preparing to leave immediately if things went wrong.

soon.

Under Wang Xiaoming's calm gaze and Li Jun's vigilant watch, the pitch-black ghostly domain stopped spreading and moving when it was still some distance away from them. Then the darkness quickly receded, revealing the outline of a human figure.

The man was wearing dirty, smelly, and slightly tattered clothes, which were the uniform of the head of headquarters.

Through the tattered holes in his clothes, it was clear that his skin was no longer the normal skin color of a living person; instead, it was black and bluish, like a corpse that had been abandoned somewhere for a long time without being dealt with.

This is an extremely horrifying scene.

A figure, slightly thin, with a dark complexion and lifeless eyes, stood stiffly not far from Wang Xiaoming and the others, his empty, white eyes constantly scanning everything around him.

"It really is Wei Jing!"

Li Jun's eyes widened as he stood inside the sunshade.

As Wang Xiaoming's personal bodyguard, he had naturally seen and recognized Wei Jing. Although Wei Jing was different from before, his overall appearance and figure had not changed. He had just become more like a corpse than a living person.

Or rather... he's more like a vengeful ghost!
"Wei Jing, you really succeeded. It seems that my previous choice was not wrong. There is such a research direction. Transforming ghost tamers into vengeful ghosts can effectively solve the problem of vengeful ghost resurgence."

At this moment, Wang Xiaoming's voice rang out, breaking the surrounding tranquility.

He was looking at Wei Jing, and there was an indescribable emotion in his originally calm eyes.

"Yes, Professor Wang, in a sense, your research has succeeded. In my current state, I am completely free from the troubles of the resurrected vengeful spirit, but I am also dead, just a corpse with Wei Jing's consciousness..."

Wei Jing responded from the other side.

His voice sounded very hoarse, giving people a strange feeling, as if he had incomplete vocal cords. At the same time, his tone was cold and devoid of any emotion, so indifferent that it was frightening.

"That's enough."

Wang Xiaoming said, "Your appearance confirms that my research direction is feasible, which is enough. In addition, the information revealed by that thing makes me see the possibility that this research can be widely promoted and implemented at headquarters. However, before this experiment can continue, we still need to get that thing again."

.........

(PS: To explain, in the original story, after the ghost messengers returned to the coffin, the coffin was completely lost. Only when Yang Jian rescued the person did he manage to bring out an opening. At that time, Yang Jian just grabbed a ghost coffin casually and did not explicitly state whether it was the original ghost coffin, so...)
