Chapter 1068 Golden Battle Suit
Yang Jian and Zhang Wei were exchanging information, much of it from the internet, including information about Tao Yu's current situation. The whole class was in a similar state at this time.

After all, the matter was too sensational, and although Tao Yu held a foreign title, he still had a Chinese face, which naturally made him more likely to gain favor.

Furthermore, their ability to resolve bizarre situations and even overpower those on the other side of the ocean provides them with ample material for conversation.

They even doubt the changing global order.

At the same time, I was also very curious about this safety lesson.

They then met the teacher who had come to give the lecture.

On a sweltering day, a guy was wearing a trench coat, completely wrapped up, with no flesh on his face, looking like a skeleton, yet he had an exaggerated beer belly, making him look somewhat deformed.

Just his mere presence in the classroom made it feel like the temperature had dropped, bringing a chilly atmosphere.

Given Tao Yu's current level of popular science education, ordinary people who follow him have a vague understanding of the differences between the supernatural and the supernatural. When Tao Yu took action during his live stream before, he dealt with several supernatural beings.

Therefore, they believed that this strangely dressed guy might be one of the ghost controllers who could handle strange events!

"Hello students, my name is Zhou Zheng, and I'm the person in charge of Dachang City. As you can probably guess from my appearance, I'm a Ghost Rider..."

At this point, Zhou Zheng also felt a little sentimental.

The situation at Dongda University is different. The headquarters has Wang Xiaoming, a top researcher, and Qin Lao, a natural-born "ghost" with the power to suppress everything.

This is why Tokyo University has the most complete system of Ghost Riders, with official officials from various regions handling all kinds of issues.

Zhou Zheng is the person in charge of Dachang City.

"I am very happy to be able to stand here alive and give a lecture to you. I also want to thank that amazing little duke. If it weren't for him, perhaps the higher-ups wouldn't have approved it so easily."

Zhou Zheng's voice sounded quite hoarse, which was unpleasant to listen to.

"But actually, I've already made up my mind. Even if it's not approved by the higher-ups, I will still tell you the truth and try my best to pass on this knowledge before I die..."

Zhou Zheng sighed, looking at the students whose faces were beginning to show signs of fear, and said in a strange tone...
"Now that you know about the supernatural and the Ghost Masters, have any of you considered becoming Ghost Masters yourself?"

Zhou Zheng's words resonated with many students.

At first, they were indeed unaware of the existence of the Ghost Masters, but after the cruise ship incident, the Seimei incident, and even the appearance of some official Ghost Masters from the Great Beauty side, they realized that there were ways to deal with the supernatural.

Furthermore, some people have used bizarre abilities!

For example, that young duke has already acquired Seimei's abilities.

This ability can be seized and utilized.

Some bold students have already stepped forward and spoken up.

"Of course we want to. There are strange rumors everywhere, and it's full of danger. We want to be able to solve this problem, at least to protect the safety of our families."

The boy who stepped forward even showed a hint of wanting to save lives, and his words attracted a lot of attention.

"A square mirror?"

Yang Jian glanced at that classmate. He wasn't very familiar with him, but this guy probably wouldn't have been so bold before.

Moreover, for some reason, he felt that Fang Jing glanced at him when he got up, and that look made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Heh, let's say that's your goal. But what I'm about to tell you is that controlling the supernatural is an extremely painful and dangerous thing, a true matter of life and death. And even if you succeed, you still have to worry about the supernatural reviving at any time. A ghost tamer's lifespan is measured in days, and I am a prime example..."

Zhou Zhengxian then pointed out the difficulties faced by those who control ghosts.

When they heard him say that lifespan is measured in days, the group of students who were initially eager to try immediately quieted down, feeling somewhat incredulous.

Becoming a Demon Tamer is an aspiration for this powerful force, not a means to seek death.

To be honest, the contrast between Zhou Zheng's thinness and his huge beer belly is indeed a bit creepy.

"If you have this kind of awareness and still want to control the supernatural, then you can give it a try, or even ask me for help..."

Zhou Zheng glanced at everyone in the room, his gaze finally settling on Fang Jing.

"So, are you still willing, student?"

"Of course!"

Fang Jing spoke with extreme confidence and absolute certainty.

These words surprised Zhou Zheng quite a bit; he hadn't expected this kid to actually have such courage.

Judging from his appearance, he didn't seem to be putting on a brave face or trying to save face.

It's rare to find someone who truly has that kind of confidence and awareness.

Not to mention Zhou Zheng, many of the other students felt that Fang Jing was being treated differently.

Zhou Zheng also nodded.
“It’s good to have this confidence. If you really have this awareness and survive a paranormal event, then I can help you.”

Zhou Zheng didn't immediately suggest recruiting the other party. There are plenty of young people who are arrogant and naive, and perhaps the other party would back down if they actually encountered such a situation.

However, there is no problem with temporarily including them in the reserve list.

The situation is dire, and he feels that more demon tamers are needed to solve the problem.

Moreover, it remains unclear whether the young duke who claims to be from the wizarding world is friend or foe...

"Alright, I've said what I needed to say beforehand. Now I'm going to teach you how to increase your survival rate when facing bizarre events..."

Zhou Zheng then got to the main point, first stating the argument that "the supernatural cannot be killed; only the supernatural can deal with the supernatural," but this was quickly refuted.

"That can't be right, how did the young duke do that? Doesn't it count if he used magic?"

At least in Tao Yu's videos, although the strange occurrences were troublesome, they were nothing compared to the jewelry heist, and were all suppressed with a flick of the wrist.

"I don't know the specifics of the young duke's situation, but what I do know is that his magic, at most, worked in conjunction with gold to seal away the supernatural. From the 'ghost back' from the initial jewelry heist to Seimei later on, the supernatural has never disappeared. For example, the young duke used Seimei's abilities..."

Zhou Zheng's presentation of facts seems to have made his arguments more convincing!

Yes, it seems that after Seimei was defeated, his abilities were simply transferred.

Is this eerie power truly impossible to dissipate?!
Those seemingly simpler ones from before are no longer there?
If Zhou Zheng's statement is true, then the young duke's life is also on a countdown?

"And don't think that just because the young duke handled it simply, it really is simple. Take the very first 'ghost back' case, if you were there, who would have thought that the key was the head of the first corpse? And you even had to carry gold to ensure your own safety while completing the seal."

Zhou Zheng's words also made many students fall into deep thought.

Ah this...

It seems impossible!
That young duke really does seem to have a cheat code!
"But it's undeniable that magic can make it easier to deal with the supernatural and provide various forms of assistance, but ultimately, to truly suppress the supernatural, one can only rely on gold or another supernatural being..."

It's all because of Tao Yu's previous actions. Now, Zhou Zheng uses Tao Yu's actions or videos to explain things in detail each time.

With his professional analysis and explanation, pointing out details frame by frame, the students in the class gradually came to understand.

This thing is really creepy!
Moreover, it's clear that Zhou Zheng is extremely familiar with the Little Duke's videos, having watched them countless times. He manages to capture details that were previously invisible during each pause and each frame of his commentary.

After his explanation, I realized that the video, which I originally watched for fun, had so much more to it than I expected.

"But don't worry, most of you have a set of rules that need to be triggered to kill. Problems will only arise when these conditions are met. So using your brain in critical moments will be very useful and can help you get away..."

But just as he finished speaking, the classroom lights suddenly dimmed and started crackling.

We were just telling a ghost story, and now this sudden change really startled the students.

"what happened?"

"Could we have encountered something supernatural...?"

"Don't talk nonsense! There's no way it could be such a coincidence!"

"With Mr. Zhou Zheng here, there shouldn't be any problem, right, Uncle..."

"..."

The students' chatter also revealed Zhou Zheng's stern expression.

Seriously? You're serious?!
Did you make a mistake!
Yang Jian looked up and saw a figure walking down the corridor.

This made his eyes widen in surprise.

Isn't this the old man I saw in the video last night?
isn't it...

After listening to Zhou Zheng's explanation of the strange phenomenon, Yang Jian also vaguely felt that the video might be one of the ways this strange phenomenon spread!

It's even possible that this strange phenomenon is specifically targeting me!

Was it because I saw his face? Or because I heard a knock on the door?

Yang Jian immediately felt a cold sweat break out.

Outside the window, an old man dressed in a black robe had eerie dark blue lividity on his face, and the area around him was pitch black, as if it had swallowed up the surrounding scenery.

A putrid stench, like that of a dead rat, began to permeate the air, making people nauseous.

At this moment, everyone in the class noticed the old man's presence and sensed the unpleasant atmosphere.

"Oh no... it's the Ghost Realm! How could this be!"

Fang Jing, who had initially seemed quite confident, suddenly lost her composure and screamed.

However, since the Ghost Realm had appeared in several of Tao Yu's videos, his comment didn't seem too abrupt, but it did make Zhou Zheng take another look.

This student has potential to immediately recognize that they've entered a ghost realm; it's just that their mindset is a bit off, and they can't stay calm...

"Mr. Zhou, please save us."

The homeroom teacher also felt fear at this moment and came to Zhou Zheng for help.

"I will do my best. Every strange event requires understanding the pattern first."

Zhou Zheng's expression was very serious.

The ghostly power within him is very strong and has great potential, but precisely because of this, it is also eroding him very quickly. He is now on the verge of recovery. This time, facing the eerie creature with the power of the ghost realm, he really has no confidence at all!

Once I revive here, it will cause two strange things to appear here!
Looking at the group of children, Zhou Zheng sighed, "I will do my best to keep you safe..."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than there was a knock at the door, knock knock knock~
As the sound faded, a student froze and collapsed to the ground, causing a stir of fear.

"Damn it! How could this happen! Zhou Zheng, think of something quick!"

Fang Jing was completely flustered, his face was solemn. He knew more than he had imagined, but he also knew that the strangeness was more terrifying than he had imagined!
I must survive!
Then he glared fiercely at Yang Jian. It's all because of this person, it's all this person's fault!

However, whether they can escape now depends on him...

"Yang Jian, what are your thoughts? Tell me!"

"I think it might be the sound of knocking on the door..."

Yang Jian had already seen the video, and now seeing the other party's reaction to knocking on the door, he immediately gave his judgment.

If Qin Lao was born with an affinity for the supernatural and was a natural master of supernatural beings, then Yang Jian was the master of supernatural beings with the strongest insight into the rules of the supernatural.

His strength lies not in how many strange creatures he can control, but in his ability to always find the patterns of their behavior in the first instance.

"Zhou Zheng, it's a knock on the door!"

Fang Jing didn't care about any of that and turned around to emphasize to Zhou Zheng that he thought Yang Jian's words were correct.

"Okay, I'll give it a try..."

Zhou Zheng's expression turned serious as he prepared to stop the old man knocking on the door. At that moment, Yang Jian noticed that Zhang Wei was still tapping on his phone, looking very anxious.

"What time is it? You're still playing on your phone?"

Yang Jian patted Zhang Wei on the head.

"Oh? No, I'm asking the young duke for help."

Zhang Wei picked up his phone and showed it to Tao Yu. He kept sending gifts to Tao Yu's live stream while crying for help, saying that his Dachang No. 7 Middle School was being haunted and begging the Little Duke to come and save it.

"is that useful?"

Yang Jian was genuinely stunned for a moment.

"I don't know. I'm the only one sending gifts to ask for help right now. Apart from those few oil tycoons, I've probably sent the most..."

Meanwhile, Tao Yu, who was still dealing with the mess left by Da Piao Liang on live stream, turned her head to look in the direction of the camera, seemingly exchanging a glance with Zhang Wei and Yang Jian from afar.

"Dachang No. 7 Middle School..."

Tao Yu nodded with a hint of emotion.
"Row……"

Meanwhile, as Yang Jian watched Zhang Wei interact in the live stream, Zhou Zheng's stomach began to become translucent, and two hands reached out from inside, firmly gripping the old man outside.
"I've got him under control for now! You all get out of here quickly! And fast!"

Zhou Zheng roared, and Fang Jing rushed out the door immediately, followed closely by the other students.

Yang Jian gave Zhang Wei a push, signaling him to follow, and then rushed out himself.

"The young duke said he's coming, why are you running away?"

Zhang Wei asked curiously.

"He's still in the Great Beauty, separated from us by an entire planet, and he's so strange that no one can guarantee they can handle him."

Yang Jian had no intention of waiting to die on the spot; he was inexplicably calm.

But as soon as everyone rushed out of the classroom and saw the dark playground, which seemed to be still isolated from the world, a sense of despair arose in their hearts.

Was it not just the classrooms, but the entire school that was enveloped?

"Is it that strong...?"

Zhou Zheng gradually realized that something was wrong. Although his ghost had captured the old man, he felt that it could not restrain him for long, and if this continued, he would be strangely resurrected!

Damn it, is this the end...?

Fang Jing's face turned pale at this moment. In this life-or-death situation, he didn't care about anything else. Instead, he quickly took out a piece of parchment-like material and wanted to see what was on it.

Some red writing appeared on the paper.

"The great Lord of Mysteries, the King of All Mysteries, is about to reign supreme over the Seventh Middle School. Your humble subjects must offer our most sublime tribute to our King!"

The words, which seemed to carry a hint of excitement, made the handwriting appear somewhat messy.

"WTF……"

Fang Jing was also a bit confused at this moment. This human skin paper was the golden finger he obtained, which allowed him to talk to his future self, know a lot of things, and help solve many problems. It seemed to know everything.

He took it out this time to see what suggestions the human skin paper had for resolving the current situation, but suddenly this bunch of random things appeared.

Da Da Da~
The rhythmic echo of boots on the floor reverberated through the corridor. In the pitch-black hallway, a figure radiating a soft glow stepped out, illuminating everything before them.

"It's really dark..."

Tao Yu glanced around the scene, then at the trembling human skin paper, and then saw the direction of Yang Jian and Zhang Wei.

"This is really strange, and it seems to be a bit troublesome."

"It's the young duke!"

"We are saved!"

"Oh my god! Why is he here?"

"I asked for help in the live stream and got them here. I didn't expect it to be so fast..."

"Zhang Wei, you are a hero!"

"..."

The students, who had been in despair, suddenly perked up. Even Zhou Zheng, who was struggling with the old man in black, couldn't help but turn his head to look.

"I...I'm starting to lose control of myself, please be careful!"

At this moment, Zhou Zheng also regretted it a little. He shouldn't have been so arrogant. If he hadn't taken the initiative to rush over, the other party would have only had to face one monster.

If I recover on my own now, I'll have to face two of them!
Tao Yu looked at the situation before her with a calm expression.

The old man had empty eyes and lividity on his body, but he was the vengeful ghost transformed from the remains of Luo Wensong, one of the Seven Elders of the Republic of China, and also the owner of the Ghost Post Office.

In life, he was one of the top ghost controllers, and even after death, he remained a formidable and unsettling entity. Although the ghost codenamed "Ghost Knocking on the Door" was later rated A, it still possessed characteristics of an S-level ghost to some extent.

"The spirits of this world are actually quite interesting..."

Tao Yu watched the scene of Zhou Zheng and the old man wrestling before her eyes, but did not intervene directly. Instead, she tapped her palm with her magic wand, as if she was pondering something.

The wizarding world has ghosts, as well as ghosts in the traditional sense, and although Luo Wensong is dead, he is not really dead.

Besides the eeriness left behind, Tao Yu could also sense a trace of his remnant soul's consciousness, which must be in the cracks of the supernatural world.

While Tao Yu was observing and analyzing, Zhou Zheng was completely dumbfounded. What was this guy doing? I was about to recover!
"I think I'm kind of dead..."

However, just as Zhou Zheng finished speaking and the strange thing in his stomach was about to leave, Tao Yu's wand suddenly unleashed a beam of light that struck him directly. A golden torrent gushed out from the wand, enveloping Zhou Zheng in everything except his head.

It seems as if a golden suit of armor was tailor-made for him.

With the gold added to his body, Zhou Zheng clearly felt a strange sense of calm within him!

The battle suit seemed to have extremely complex pathways, through which strange power was bound and twisted, transforming from its original violent and disordered state into an orderly one.

Just like a filter, it eliminates the original chaotic noise and transforms the analog signal into a digital signal, instantly making Zhou Zheng feel as if he could control his own body as if the strange thing had directly become a part of his body!

In the past, every time I manipulated the supernatural, it was like constipation—it caused great harm to my body, put a heavy burden on it, and carried the risk of being corroded.

Having gotten used to those high-difficulty operations before, going back to control the current situation is like having a cheat code!
The old man in front of me seems to be nothing special!

"Haha, my bizarre resurgence has been suppressed?"

The power from the two hands inside Zhou Zheng's stomach was transmitted to his arms through the channels inside the golden armor, and he actually managed to lift Luo Wensong up.

He was on the verge of death and had even written his will, but now he finds himself seemingly no longer at risk of a bizarre resurrection!

As long as my body doesn't break down, I can keep a firm grip on the eerie phenomena!

Is this the true value of a young duke?

However, considering that the other party emptied their vast gold reserves in one fell swoop, possessing tens of thousands of tons of gold in hand, they are indeed the person with the highest gold content...

After Zhou Zheng lifted Luo Wensong's body, Tao Yu also activated his Ghost Realm, completely suppressing the Ghost Knocking on the Door. Then, he raised his wand again and pointed it at Luo Wensong's corpse.

Swish~
Layers of thin gold film completely enveloped Luo Wensong.

A strange entity with its own ghostly aura, extremely difficult to deal with, and even the strange resurgence within Zhou Zheng, were all dealt with with a flick of the wrist.

This truly made Zhou Zheng realize just how powerful this person was.

"Thank you, Young Duke, for saving so many people and resolving the strange event. I am also personally grateful to you for saving my life!"

As he spoke, Zhou Zheng looked at his golden battle armor with some reluctance, knowing its value.

This seemed to be specifically designed for the strange forces within him; the raging power was completely tamed, yet he still bowed and said...

"I am grateful to the young duke for lending me such a valuable item."

He knew the items were valuable, so he had no intention of keeping them for himself.

However, Tao Yu waved his hand dismissively.
"This was made using the gold you stored away. The scraps were considered processing fees. Whether you want to take it back or not is your own business..."

Tao Yu's words also stunned Zhou Zheng. Could there really be such a good thing?

Although this thing nominally belongs to the government, it can suppress his strangeness and turn him into combat power. Based on his understanding of the headquarters, he knows that it will definitely not be taken back!

At most, he'll just ask me to cooperate with Wang Xiaoming in some experiments...
