Mysterious Resurrection: What If

Chapter 76 First Battle (Part 12)
As they got closer to Wang Xiaoming, the number of yellow papers began to increase dramatically, from just three or four at the beginning to an astonishing number.

But the people present did not react at all and continued talking to themselves.

These yellow papers, as if alive, quickly covered Wang Xiaoming's arm. In just a moment, a human figure completely wrapped in yellow paper appeared in front of the conference table. However, Wang Xiaoming's voice did not stop and continued to come out from inside the yellow paper at a leisurely pace.

Liu San's expression was solemn. His attack had not worked, and his supernatural abilities seemed to be nothing more than an empty shell.

"A dream? Or a hallucination..."

Liu San stood up and looked at the big black dog in the corner. The dog was enormous, almost the size of a calf, and was lying there motionless.

"When dealing with consciousness-type paranormal events, we can't rely on our usual experience and thinking... Conventional paranormal countermeasures aren't very effective... That dog was too out of place relative to the overall environment; in paranormal events, anomalies often mean variables."

Thinking of this, Liu San stood up and walked towards the big black dog. As if it couldn't see Liu San, the big black dog didn't make any move at all.

As he crouched down, about to reach out and touch the black dog's head, his vision suddenly blurred, and Liu San felt a wave of dizziness wash over him.

"We've been attacked..."

His eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and the things in front of him began to blur more and more. Liu San did not panic. He believed he could withstand this level of attack.

"My actions were correct. When I attacked Wang Xiaoming, his body didn't show any abnormalities. This dog is the key."

With his last shred of consciousness, Liu San turned his head with difficulty to look at Wang Xiaoming, who had been wrapped up like a paper doll. Wang Xiaoming, who had just been talking, was now lying motionless on the ground.

"The yellow paper's effect doesn't mean the supernatural thing doesn't exist; it just canceled it out. In other words, I possess all the supernatural abilities that exist in reality here, but my actions touched a key point in this space, forcing the person manipulating this scene to choose to attack me."

He's shown a weakness; I still have a chance.

The next second, Liu San could no longer control his body and fell straight backward.

At the conference table, in a familiar scene, Wang Xiaoming repeated what he had just said, while Shen Liang got up again to distribute intelligence.

Liu San returned to his seat once again.

A rare look of disbelief appeared on his gaunt face.

"Has headquarters been hacked... or am I being attacked by a ghost? This feeling of déjà vu... is it... a type of consciousness?"

"Something's not right!" Liu San suddenly noticed two or three pieces of yellow paper in front of Wang Xiaoming, quietly placed on the table.

I've been here before.

Liu San instantly realized the situation he was facing.

"Those few sheets of yellow paper are my medium; no one can use them without my intervention."

Looking around, the people around me were very wooden, as if they were acting in a movie, performing their actions in a rigid and formulaic manner.

"Why did I choose to attack Wang Xiaoming...?"

"No, that's not right, I should say it's the nth time I've woken up..."

It must be said that Liu San reacted very quickly; captains are always particularly perceptive when faced with paranormal events.

My gaze fell on the dog in the corner.

"A dog? That's too unusual. How could there be a dog here?" Liu San got up again and walked towards the dog, but his foot stopped in mid-air. After thinking for a moment, Liu San sat back down.

"If this weren't my first time waking up, I should have already interacted with the dog, but I'm still stuck in this recurring loop, which means I can't interact with the dog for the time being..."

This time, Liu San did not attempt to attack Wang Xiaoming again, but instead looked at Yang Jian, confirming the authenticity of the Yang Jian before him.

Yang Jian seemed to have noticed him as well, and turned to look at him.

The two stared at each other for several seconds, seemingly trying to confirm each other's authenticity.

"Stop looking, it's real."

A voice came from beside Liu San. Turning around, he saw Shen Lin sitting at the corner of the conference table, watching the two of them.

Shen Lin tapped the table and said in a deep voice, "There's no doubt about it. It's a consciousness attack. We should be on the moon right now, but we suddenly appeared at headquarters. Someone attacked us the moment we arrived on the moon."

"The moon?" A look of confusion flashed across Liu San's face. Shen Lin's words reminded him, and his thoughts surged like a tide, his memories beginning to return rapidly.

"That's right... The vengeful spirit that Shen Lin controls is itself a consciousness type, so attacks of the same type might not be very effective against it."

Yang Jian stood up, his ghostly eyes fixed on Wang Xiaoming.

"Give it a try first."

As he spoke, he pulled out a rusty wood-chopping knife and walked over.

Wang Xiaoming continued talking to himself, showing no reaction to Yang Jian's actions. Yang Jian was very direct; he raised his hand and slashed, and Wang Xiaoming's head rolled to the ground with a thud.

However, the head continued to give instructions about the raid plan, and the headless body was still operating the computer in front of it.

Without the slightest hesitation, he turned around and slashed twice more, beheading Cao Yanhua and Shen Liang with a single blow.

At the same time, behind Li Jun and Wang Chaling, Shen Lin appeared and swung an axe down from above.

As the two attacked, the scene before them began to shatter, and that blurred sense of vision returned...
When Liu San came to his senses, he found himself sitting back in his seat, in a familiar scene, at the familiar conference table, in his familiar seat, and with the familiar people.

Wang Xiaoming's voice could still be heard in my ears; Shen Liang was still distributing intelligence.
Yellowed papers fluttered in the air, and fragmented memories surfaced.

Liu San looked at Shen Lin and Yang Jian and said, "We're trapped."

Liu San reacted quickly. His memory had returned, and he rapidly analyzed his current situation. This was the first time he had woken up in this space and attacked Wang Xiaoming. His supernatural abilities weren't ineffective, but rather they conflicted with this space. However, they still worked in the end, and the attack was successful, resetting this space.

The second attack was just now between Shen Lin and Yang Jian, but this space was reset again.

Shen Lin's gaze fell on the dog in the corner. The only thing that was different from what he remembered was the big black dog that had suddenly appeared in the corner.

The ghost eye spun uneasily as Yang Jian quickly analyzed the current situation. His and Shen Lin's attack had worked, forcing the space to reset once more.

However, Yang Jian couldn't determine the upper limit of the supernatural power in this strange space, so continuing like this was pointless.

After a moment, Yang Jian held up three fingers and said, "To trap the three of us, at least three kings would be needed. I'm assuming there are only three people attacking us."
