I am the one running the game

Chapter 740: Ghost in the Clouds, the Falling Invisible Object
At night, Lu Xingshi heard some rustling sounds coming from the house, as if something was knocking on his roof.

Before Lu Xingshi went to check, he keenly sensed an outburst of malice.

Lu Xingshi was actually very familiar with this feeling of malice, it was the hunger he felt when he wanted to eat.

He stood up and was about to check, but he instinctively sensed something approaching, so he slightly turned his body and dodged.

But he saw nothing.

"Some invisible thing?" Although Lu Xingshi couldn't see, his strong perception allowed him to clearly perceive that there was some strange thing in front of him. It seemed to be hanging from the sky, ignoring the roof, and groping beside him.

I reached out and touched it. It was soft yet hard, as if I was touching a thick arm, but the overall shape was more like some kind of flexible mouthpart.

He has no vision, but he is always looking for Lu Xingshi's location.

When touched by Lu Xingshi, the invisible mouthparts quickly responded and began to swing around like tentacles.

"No, what are you?" Lu Xingshi nimbly dodged the blind spot of the invisible mouthparts.

Lu Xingshi suspected that this ghost should be the one that ate the cow before.

"It looks like an evil level, but not quite." While analyzing, Lu Xingshi left the house directly.

He thought he would see some creepy ghost on the roof, but what happened was beyond his expectations.

The mouthpart did not hang down from the roof, but from the clouds, which means that the owner of the mouthpart was extremely huge.

"Evil level or disaster level?" Lu Xingshi looked solemnly at the mouthparts that were gradually curling back.

It seemed that because they failed to eat people, a large number of invisible mouthparts fell from the sky, and the target of these invisible mouthparts was obvious, which was Lu Xingshi.

Compared with ordinary people, fortune tellers are naturally more loved by fortune ghosts.

"My luck is either good or bad."

"We've only settled here for two days, how come we've encountered these things?" Lu Xingshi looked helpless.

With his fists clenched, the magic power lingered around Lu Xingshi's body. He grabbed the two-faced Buddha and threw it towards the densely packed invisible mouthparts.

The roar of the explosion sounded in the air, and a large number of invisible mouthparts were directly blown apart. Then the starving ghost curse broke out and quickly spread along the wound to the main body of the mouthparts.

Lu Xingshi discovered that hitting with fists was not as good as clearing the ground with explosions.

Unfortunately, there is only one two-faced Buddha in the fate. If there were 1,800 fates, Lu Xingshi could use the fate as a bomb.

"It seems that this starving ghost curse has limited effect on real evil-level targets."

Lu Xingshi looked at the large pieces of invisible objects falling from the sky. He was sure that the ghost with the invisible mouthparts hanging down was not dead, but had survived the curse.

Even the Forget-Me-Not Ghost that had just advanced to an Evil-level Ghost could resist the Starving Ghost Curse to a certain extent. An Evil-level Ghost at its full strength would have no problem holding on.

However, this evil ghost also paid a price, so at least in the short term there is no need to worry about the other party making a comeback.

"It seems that there is still a big gap between the evil level and the evil level."

"But what's the situation with this fate ghost? It's already at the evil level, why haven't the Fate Organization and the Federation taken any steps to deal with it?"

"It can't be because of the geographical location."

Lu Xingshi was a little confused, and soon he logged into the local destiny forum. Although he had defeated the destiny ghost, it still caused quite a stir in the local area.

So one or two hot posts came out. Since there are not many fortune tellers in Ganzhou, the local fortune-telling forum seems a bit deserted.

Fortunately, the Destiny Organization quickly issued a statement in the local forum.

The general idea is that this fortune-telling ghost was just an accident and has been dealt with. If you encounter this situation again next time, all fortune-tellers should try to stay away from it.

"This can be considered as them stealing the credit." Lu Xingshi found that although the statement did not say it directly, the words between the lines hinted that it was the Destiny Organization that solved the problem.

"The branch of the Destiny Organization in Ganzhou seems to be too corrupt."

Lu Xingshi narrowed his eyes. It was indeed not easy to grab the credit so openly. It could only be said that the entire Ganzhou had become a one-man show of this branch.

And a lot of things must have been covered up. At least the situation in Ganzhou is not as easy as it is said on the Mingtu Forum.

Come to think of it, maintaining stability is the most important thing.

It’s not wrong that a problem has arisen; what’s wrong is that the problem has become known to others.

"It should be due to the structure of the Destiny Organization."

The Destiny Organization is a united organization formed by families, which means that they will have power divisions.

If the local families in Ganzhou are not strong enough and are unwilling to give up power or ask for help, then the result is self-evident.

There is no problem in asking for help, but once people from other families intervene in Ganzhou, it will be easier said than done.

Therefore, in order to protect their own interests, they need to make the locals of Ganzhou suffer. "No wonder there are so few fortune-tellers in Ganzhou. This must be the intention of the Ganzhou branch of the destiny organization."

The entanglement between fortune tellers and fortune ghosts is common knowledge. So think about it in reverse. If there are few fortune tellers in a certain area, does it mean that the number of fortune ghosts will also be greatly reduced?

There is nothing wrong with thinking this way, but they have overlooked a very serious problem.

That is, the absence of fortune tellers does not mean that there will be no fortune ghosts. The number of fortune ghosts has never been determined by the fortune teller, but by the mortality rate.

If this theory is true, doesn't it mean that as long as all fortune tellers are gathered in one place, then apart from this place, no fortune ghosts will be born anywhere else in the world?
This is simply impossible.

"Or maybe the other party has some kind of balancing mechanism to ensure that there will be no problems in the entire Ganzhou?" Lu Xingshi's understanding of the Destiny Organization was actually quite limited, most of which he had learned through the Destiny Forum and the remaining soul of the great destiny master.

The core issues cannot be touched upon in the forum, and the destiny organization that the remnant soul of the great destiny master learned about belongs to the ancient destiny, not the modern one.

He did spend some time with Ling Zheng in the Destiny Organization in Liu City, but what he saw and heard during that time was nothing but intrigue, and he did not gain much substantial knowledge.

Lu Xingshi dragged an invisible mouthpart into the house and began to dissect it.

"Intangible and intangible? That's not right. How did I come into contact with it before?"

"It's not true that it has substance or shape. This mouthpart can penetrate the roof and ceiling and hang down to suck people."

“It can’t be both at the same time.”

As the dissection progressed, Lu Xingshi became more and more curious about this other ghost.

"It doesn't look like the main body, but more like a sub-body or a derived organ."

"But as a demon-level, there should be a ghost den, right? Then why doesn't this life ghost use the ghost den to cover it before taking action? That way it will be safe."

Lu Xingshi estimated that if he really entered the den of this fateful ghost, it would be difficult to escape without cheating.

As for whether this life ghost is below the evil level? Lu Xingshi doesn't consider this. To be able to cause such a big commotion and damage the entire Ganzhou, it must be of the evil level. The evil level can't do it.

"Could it be possible that it is catastrophic? Ganzhou is just a small part of its hunting area?" Lu Xingshi suddenly thought of this.

The Federation and the Destiny Organization naturally declared that there were no disaster-level life ghosts. After all, a disaster-level life ghost could destroy the Federation. If this were said out loud, it would inevitably cause panic among the people.

It doesn’t matter whether it’s true or not. What’s important is to make people believe that it doesn’t exist.

To be cautious, they even concealed the evil ghosts, just like the Forget-Sorrow Village in the past.

If there really is a catastrophic fate, it will definitely be covered up as deeply as possible and will never dare to expose it.

Lu Xingshi was not making groundless guesses, but this fate ghost was indeed too huge, so he couldn't help but think so.

In fact, if it is a disaster level, it is not so bad. This means that Lu Xingshi’s fate bomb is useful, which means that the disaster level is not invincible.

But if it is the evil level, then Lu Xingshi will have to think carefully about how he should cheat so that he can become stronger and avoid being taken away by unexpected disasters.

...

"Why is Mica out looking for food again? I remember it just finished eating last month."

As the person in charge of the Ganzhou Destiny Branch, Tong You, the head of the Tong family, said with a little annoyance: "I remember it was balanced. Could it be that another destiny master has entered Ganzhou?"

"It's quite possible, and he should be the one who defeated Yunmu."

"But he was still too slow to act. Yunmu probably killed quite a few people again." Xing Han, the head of the Xing family, was also dissatisfied.

"He must have sneaked in. Ganzhou has a ban. Every fortune teller who enters must be checked." Tong You's face became more and more ugly: "We must find him as soon as possible and give him to Yunmu to calm her anger."

"Otherwise, once Yunmu drags the entire Ganzhou into the devil's den, the Federation will be unable to cover up for us even if it wants to."

"He is at least a great destiny master." Xing Han analyzed and said, "And his strength is not low, otherwise he would not be able to hurt Yunmu."

"If possible, we can definitely use each other to get rid of Yunmu."

"If it succeeds, our Ganzhou will be able to develop, and your Tong family and my Xing family won't have to be trapped here."

"If we fail, it's even better. We can just give it to Yunmu as an apology. It will be a win-win for both of us." Xing Han said with a smile.

"It's a good idea, but what if he wants to reach out?" Tong You said coldly: "The other party is a human, not like Yunmu who is a fate ghost."

"No matter how powerful Yunmu is, she will never compete with you and me for power."

He would rather believe in ghosts than in people.

"You, it's still too early to say these things." Xing Han acknowledged Tong You's caution, but he knew that now was not the time to think about how to deal with the aftermath, but to find the person first.

If they can't find the person, they will be in trouble the next time Yunmu strikes again.

Every time Yunmu eats, he needs a lot of people, fortune tellers, and fortune ghosts as food. If Yunmu is not fed, how can they live freely in Ganzhou? They have already become Yunmu's meal.
