Mysterious Resurrection: I am practicing magic in troubled times

Chapter 33 Supernatural Balance
The heavy metal door opened silently.

This is the buffer room outside the laboratory. At this moment, Wang Xiaoming is only separated by a wall from Li Gui.

"Please pay attention to monitoring Xu Zheng's various data. These are very valuable information."

After speaking, Wang Xiaoming locked the door behind him without hesitation and lit the scarlet ghost candle in his hand with a lighter.

The orange flame ignited, and although it was not bright, it gave people an inexplicable sense of security.

He held the candle in his hand and struggled to turn the wheel in front of him to open the last line of defense.

The candlelight was very weak and could not completely illuminate the dark room. Wang Xiaoming could only hear the faint rustling sounds coming from inside, as if something was running around on the ground.

By the light of the fire, you can see that the long black hair has covered the ground, and there is no possibility of going around.

"I originally wanted to save a little, but it seems impossible." Wang Xiaoming took a deep breath and plunged into the room.

Countless ghost hairs were squirming quietly under his feet, and they felt like carpets when stepped on.

The moment he touched his hair, Wang Xiaoming had triggered Gui Fa's killing pattern, but Gui Fa had no intention of attacking him.

It's just that the ghost candle's candle flame shone slightly, speeding up its burning speed.

Wang Xiaoming was not surprised, but instead breathed a sigh of relief, "It's much slower than during the experiment. The ghost hair is indeed not that scary."

This is the difference between ghost candles and ordinary candles. Its light is composed of normal candlelight and candlelight with supernatural power.

The light from a normal candle will shine into the darkness until it encounters an obstacle and bounces back to the human eye, thereby illuminating the darkness.

Light with supernatural power can condense on the user's side, forming something similar to a defensive field.

Within the scope of this defensive field, all evil spirits cannot harm people.

With the ghost candle in his hand, Wang Xiaoming moved freely in the room. After groping for a while, he saw two hazy figures.

"The evil ghost showed up but did not leave... It means that the confrontation is still going on, and Xu Zheng should still be alive."

Wang Xiaoming quickened his pace, and when the candlelight fell on Xu Zheng's body, he realized that his condition was terrible.

A ball of jet-black hair lay on Xu Zheng's chest, and the hair that grew out covered half of his body.

There was also a vague ghost standing behind him. Part of the ghost's body merged into Xu Zheng's body, leaving the other half of his body covered with blue-black patches.

The defensive field formed by the candlelight shrouded it, the ghost candle became brighter again, and the burning speed also increased.

But the effect was also obvious. Both ghosts stopped moving under the candlelight.

Without the supernatural erosion, Xu Zheng also woke up faintly. He opened his eyes and discovered that Professor Wang had actually entered the laboratory in person.

The warm candlelight immediately attracted his attention, and his intuition told him that this thing was extraordinary and might even be the key to his survival.

Xu Zheng's throat throbbed for a moment, and he asked with great effort: "Professor Wang? What kind of thing is this? It can actually suppress the resurrection of evil ghosts."

"An experimental product, the output is very small, how is your situation now?" Wang Xiaoming didn't say much.

With two ghosts superimposed, the ghost candle won't last long, and any more use will be a waste.

"Gui Fa and Gui Tui Ren are at a stalemate. The supernatural powers were still fighting on me just now, and no one can do anything to the other." Xu Zheng tried to get up but failed. He smiled bitterly, "I lost consciousness just now, or... This candle woke me up. But I still can't move, and I will probably turn into a corpse in the end."

Although the ghost candle can suppress Li Gui, Xu Zheng doesn't think this thing can save his life. How long can a candle last? He will still die after burning out.

Wang Xiaoming looked at him and thought for a moment, and soon thought of a way to break the situation.

"Since they want to fight, just let them fight somewhere else."

Then Wang Xiaoming grabbed the ghost hair body on Xu Zheng's chest under Xu Zheng's surprised gaze.

Because of the influence of the ghost candle, the ghost hair did not resist at all and lay quietly on Wang Xiaoming's hand, like a lifelike wig.

It's just that it's not as smooth to the touch as it looks, but rather sticky, as if there's some kind of blood coating it.

Xu Zheng looked at Wang Xiaoming's movements and asked, "What are you doing?"

"The prerequisite for the resurrection of the evil ghost is the erosion of the human body by the ghost. As long as the ghost behind you can be restrained, it will naturally have no time to erode you."

Wang Xiaoming took a step back slightly, isolating the ghost's figure from the candlelight, "Isn't the ghost hair just a ready-made material? It likes to tie people up, so let it have fun with the ghost shadow."

Because of the influence of the candlelight, Xu Zheng is no longer the target of the two ghosts. So what will they do after they regain their ability to kill?
Of course, kill the other ghost that triggered the rule.

In the darkness where Wang Xiaoming and Xu Zheng could not see, the ghost hair was entangled with the hazy ghost figure, and the ghost figure struggled to tear the ghost hair on its body.

Gui Fa wants to strangle Gui Ying to death, and Gui Ying also wants to make Gui Fa's body completely wither away.

However, ghosts are immortal. If one party is strong, it is possible to suppress the other party.

But Wang Xiaoming specially selected two ghosts with relatively low levels of terror for the experiment, so their supernatural powers were almost equal, and no one could do anything to the other.

As time went by, the ghost hair stopped spreading and could only wrap around the ghost figure. The ghost figure no longer struggled to resist and just allowed the ghost hair to wrap around itself.

Their battle turns from superficial to deep supernatural confrontation, but in any case, a certain balance is indeed achieved.

Xu Zheng immediately sensed the changes in the two ghosts. He said with some uncertainty: "I seem to... control the ghost's hair? And the power of the ghost pushing people is much easier to control."

As soon as he thought about it, the hair on his body actually slowly faded away, and the corpse spots on the other side gradually disappeared.

Wang Xiaoming thought in his mind, "People under the influence of Ghost Candle are absolutely safe, so have they met the conditions for controlling supernatural beings... This method can be used to mass-produce ghost controllers."

He observed for a while and found that Xu Zheng's face looked much better, but he still said cautiously: "I'm not sure what will happen after leaving Guizhu. Next, I will take Guizhu out slowly and you can feel it."

"No problem." Xu Zheng said confidently.

The candlelight moved away little by little, and he didn't feel any discomfort until Xu Zheng's figure completely blended into the darkness.

After a while, Xu Zheng became thoroughly familiar with the ghost hair's ability and took back the hair that had been derived.

The light from the laboratory shines through the yellow glass, and there are no traces of ghost hair left on the ground.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaoming blew out the candle in his hand, "Congratulations, how does it feel to control two ghosts?"

Xu Zheng chuckled and stood up in his wheelchair, "It's better than ever."
