Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 536 The Captain Retires
"Indeed, the nature of this special operations team is the same as the previous mobile team. It is only responsible for solving relatively less dangerous supernatural incidents. The truly terrifying evil spirits still have to be handed over to the captain. It's a pity that there are only a few captains that can be mobilized at the headquarters now."

"Chu Hanlin, Li Jun, you, me, and the fourth generation of the Wang family who have not yet grown up. The situation is not optimistic."

Lu Zhiwen said.

"Let's take it one step at a time. Yang Jian seems to be missing as well. No one can escape the fate of the resurrection of evil spirits, and I am no exception."

Cao Yang shrugged and responded with a little emotion.

"Professor Wang left behind several shelved experimental projects. I plan to restart them in the near future. If the success rate of the plan to create an artificial ghost rider can be guaranteed, it should be able to alleviate some of the trouble."

From the very beginning, Lu Zhiwen was the captain in charge of headquarters security and archives, and fighting on the front line was not his strong point.

"I have ten ghosts here. If we use them well, it's not impossible to form a captain."

Cao Yang took out ten golden containers, inside which were imprisoned the ten ghosts that he had dismembered from his body before.

"The code names are all on the containers. You can study them."

Cao Yang did not stay in Dajing City for a long time, but began to travel around. He planned to visit his colleagues in the jurisdiction of each team leader.

The person in charge of Dashen City is Mo Qiuren, who is also one of the patrol captains. However, this patrol captain passed away very quietly three months ago. His son Mo Buping inherited his evil spirit and also took over the position of person in charge, just like Mo Qiuren took over Dashen City from his father.

Mo Buping is nineteen years old this year and is a freshman. However, controlling evil spirits and entering the supernatural circle has allowed him to completely bid farewell to his previous life. Now he is an excellent person in charge who has solved two supernatural incidents.

"Old Mo, who dared to challenge Yang Jian, has also gone offline."

"Don't ask for help, don't be dissatisfied. You can't bring anything with you when you are born, and you can't take anything with you when you die. There are three ghost riders in the same family, and three dedicated leaders. Isn't it a blessing for the Great Shen City to have the Mo family?"

Cao Yang did not contact Mo Buping because it was meaningless. Although Dashen City was not the safest place now, the presence of a person in charge in the city was enough to attract many ordinary people.

"Lu Zhiwen, please take care of Dashen City. Patrol Captain Mo Qiuren will be removed from the team. His son Mo Buping will take over as the person in charge. Please allocate more resources to him."

"Ok."

Cao Yang sent a text message to Lu Zhiwen, saying that the headquarters should provide sufficient help to the Mo family, a family whose three generations have devoted their lives to protecting the city.

In Daji City, the original person in charge, Zhao Tong, died half a year ago due to the resurrection of an evil spirit. However, he died in a supernatural incident and did not even have time to send out a message for help. In the end, it was his teammate Lin Ye who settled the incident and collected Zhao Tong's body.

"From dust to dust, from ashes to ashes, there is no turning back on the path of a ghost rider."

Cao Yang erected a monument for Zhao Tong and buried him at the intersection of the supernatural and reality in Baishui Town. The existence of the two guiding supernatural beings, the return road and the guiding ghost, are enough to stop some ghosts that are not very scary, and at the same time can also prevent outsiders from entering Baishui Town by mistake.

In Dazheng City, Captain Lin Bei did not really disappear, he sealed himself in a mirror. No, he used the evil spirits too much, which caused him to be trapped in the mirror world, but fortunately the mirror world can cover the entire Dazheng City, so he can still handle the supernatural events in Dazheng City.

"Captain Cao, it's not that I want to give up, but I really can't get out, at least not for a while."

In the office, Cao Yang was chatting with Lin Bei through a ghost mirror. Lin Bei's words made Cao Yang feel a little amused.

"Don't worry, I'm not here to call you to task. The captain's life is also his life. I'm here to visit you this time."

Lin Bei stroked his bald head in the mirror. His condition was not bad, but something unexpected caused him to become the anchor point for the world in the mirror to invade reality, which led to his current embarrassing situation of being caught between a rock and a hard place.

"As long as you're okay, I won't waste your time."

After saying that, Cao Yang disappeared, and then he appeared in another city - Dayuan City. Chu Hanlin inherited He Yiner's mantle and became the new necromancer. With the supernatural items given by the captains last time, he didn't have much pressure. It was just that after Shen Lin disappeared, he had to take care of Daxia City, which was a bit challenging for him alone.

"Shen Lin is missing?"

Cao Yang frowned slightly. Strictly speaking, he was the captain who had the most dealings with Shen Lin, but Shen Lin did not tell him, as if his disappearance this time was very hasty.

"I'm going to Daxia City to take a look."

In Daxia City, Shen Lin's team had already been shattered during the national war, and the situation in this city has deteriorated further after Shen Lin's disappearance. If it weren't for Chu Hanlin next door to take care of it, the population would have been lost to a very serious extent.

"Shen Lin left an anchor point in the memory world. Maybe he is not missing, but he is unable to return to reality."

Cao Yang stood on the rooftop of the building where Shen Lin usually worked, and said thoughtfully.

The next moment, a false world unfolded instantly. A city that was exactly the same as Daxia City completely overlapped with the real Daxia City. Ordinary people living in the city could not notice anything unusual at all, but if Shen Lin was still alive, he would definitely be able to invade again.

Sure enough, Cao Yang found the familiar figure in a corner of the city. It was Shen Lin.

His condition was very bad. With the help of the void ghost and the identity ghost, he became an alien and almost forgot his identity and got lost in the idealistic level. If Cao Yang had come a little later, no one would know where Shen Lin would wander to.

"Cao Yang?"

Shen Lin shook his body and saw the face of the person clearly.

"You're in such bad shape, why don't you get into the coffin?"

"It's useless. I've studied it. The coffin can only suppress real ghosts. Due to the existence of ethereal ghosts, I will instinctively isolate the medium of any supernatural being of the same level."

"I lay down in it, but three days later I found myself in the idealistic plane of nothingness, not in the coffin at all."

"But I have already designed a way out for myself. Now that you are here today, I can implement that plan."

"What plan?"

Cao Yang asked.

"The mask is the identity. From now on there will no longer be a Captain Shen Lin. Whoever wears the mask is Shen Lin."

Shen Lin's expression showed an inexplicable determination.

In Cao Yang's sight, Shen Lin's body was dissipating, like a few dots of fluorescent light, but his supernatural power did not disappear.

Soon, a human skin mask appeared in the air and fell into Cao Yang's hands.

"Keep this mask at the headquarters. When the time comes, you can sacrifice an ordinary person to wear this mask. I will go online again to help the headquarters solve supernatural incidents."

"But as time goes by, the emotions of a living person in my consciousness will gradually be eroded. The longer time goes by, the more dangerous the mask will become. Maybe one day in the future, the person wearing the mask will be completely possessed by a ghost."

"If that day really comes, it will mean the true death of me, Shen Lin."
