We were supposed to be doing horror movie guides, but what the heck is this "mysterious resurre

Chapter 131 Is Lu Ming really only at the fourth rank? (5.6k views)

In the instance, Lu Ming suddenly said, "Daisy, do you believe in the existence of Death now? Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't. You don't need to do anything. I will help you solve your troubles."

Daisy hadn't recovered from her grief when she suddenly heard this sentence, and she was a little confused, not understanding what Lu Ming meant.

However, as Lu Ming said, it doesn't matter whether Daisy understands or not.

The next moment, a hazy mist rose in mid-air, and some ash-like things drifted down from somewhere.

"What's this?"

Jiang Zi was the first to notice something was wrong.

When everyone looked up at the drifting ashes, the surrounding environment had already changed.

Lu Ming used the Ghost Domain again.

Alice's safe house melted into the light mist.

The next moment, the six of them were back at Daisy's old home.

"Oh my god, what have you done? You're in such a mess! And where's the car?"

Cousin Eric spread his hands and looked helplessly at Lu Ming and the others.

He didn't understand Daisy at all. Ever since she came back from college, she had been acting strangely and kept insisting on finding her long-lost grandmother.

He also brought back a group of mysterious and eccentric Chinese friends.

“Eric… I know this is hard to understand, but death really exists. Just now, it took Grandma’s life…”

Daisy's family, along with her uncle's family, were gathered in a large living room on the second floor. The living room was spacious and well-lit, indicating that the family was not short of money.

The death of Grandma Alice caused a great stir, and even Daisy's mother, whom she hadn't seen for many years after running away from home, returned home.

After hearing Daisy's description, Eric laughed. He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and wandered around the room like someone with ADHD, his arm tattoos particularly noticeable.

“Daisy, have you gone mad from reading too much? Grandma died because she was too old... Even if it's really as you say, and the scene was extremely bloody and cruel, there can only be one murderer who killed Grandma. We need to call the police, not believe in some non-existent Grim Reaper and then hide in Mom’s arms trembling.”

"Besides, if this bullshit Grim Reaper really exists, why am I alright?"

Daisy wasn't assertive, and after being rebuked by Eric, she was momentarily speechless.

Fortunately, Lu Ming spoke up at this moment.

“Eric, I have to tell you a cruel truth: you were not born to your current father. Your biological father is Uncle Wang next door. You and Alice are not related by blood, so naturally you are not on Death’s list.”

"Oh! Fuck!"

Eric felt insulted and was about to step forward and knock Lu Ming to the ground.

Jiang Zi and the others were also stunned.

Because in their minds, Lu Ming wasn't the kind of guy who would casually insult others.

For him, he wouldn't bother with people he had no grudge against, but he would kill those he had a grudge against.

I would never resort to such a low-level method as arguing.

Although they didn't understand, Jiang Zi and the others still stepped forward and stood in front of Lu Ming.

When the captain is in trouble, it's only natural for the team members to step up immediately.

Lu Ming's expression remained unchanged, as if everything happening now was within his expectations.

“Eric, if you absolutely have to fight me, I advise you to think carefully… and whether you believe it or not, I know everything about you.”

What nonsense are you spouting?

Lu Ming said calmly, "You have decorative studs on your chest."

"Damn it!! You pervert, you actually peeked at my body?!"

"You still have a chance."

Eric finally couldn't hold back any longer and looked at his mother with a face full of grief and indignation.

"What happened? Is he serious? You did the splits?!"

Daisy's aunt, Eric's mother, a slightly plump woman with blonde curly hair, finally started to panic.

She recalled some comments she had seen online about feng shui masters.

They couldn't help but believe that Lu Ming and the others had the ability to tell fortunes.

"Oh, Eric, let me explain first. Things aren't as bad as you think..."

Before she could finish speaking, her kind-hearted uncle fainted from anger and collapsed to the ground.

Outside of the instance.

Sister Xiao frowned deeply.

Although she now looks like a little girl, her boss-like aura has never changed.

"What exactly is Lu Ming trying to do? I have absolutely no idea what he's up to."

Normally, Lu Ming would either build good relationships with these people and gain their trust, or he would directly use force to intimidate them.

But Lu Ming was actually teasing the family, as if he had entered the instance just for a relaxing vacation, showing no sense of urgency whatsoever.

The fat man laughed and said, "I think Lu Ming has lost his mind. He was frightened by the bloody scene just now and knows that he can't snatch people from the hands of death, so he has completely given up."

"Fatty, say no more and just watch."

For some reason, a faint unease rose in Sister Xiao's heart, and she lost the confidence she had just felt.

··········
in copy.

Looking at the mess in the living room, Lu Ming coughed twice and clapped his hands, saying, "Alright, stop fooling around, let's get down to business now."

"What important business is it...?"

Before Eric could finish speaking, a loud bang came from outside the window.

Boom! ! !
Boom! ! !
It was a clear, sunny day, without any wind or rain, and not even a thick cloud.

This terrifying commotion was not caused by changes in natural climate.

Rather, it's the noise generated by the machine's operation.

What could possibly cause such a commotion?

This question arose in everyone's minds at the same time.

The next second, their doubts were answered.

A 100-ton Wang Dayun truck suddenly sped in from the second-floor window, its momentum unstoppable, seemingly intent on wiping out everyone gathered inside.

Why would such a great fortune appear on the second floor?!
Even Lu Ming, at this moment, was mentally giving death the middle finger.

If you can't handle the risk, don't play.

The driver of the Yunche was a middle-aged man who was scrolling through his phone while driving. By the time he realized what was happening, everything that could control the vehicle had malfunctioned, and the Yunche shot headlong into the air...

Wow! ! !
The imagined scene of blood and gore did not materialize.

A layer of polluted, foul-smelling stagnant water blocked the only way for the Universiade.

The great fortune passed through it and disappeared completely, leaving not even a trace of exhaust fumes.

It seemed that what had just happened before everyone's eyes was just an illusion, and did not actually exist.

It took my cousin a while to recover from the shock. He looked at Lu Ming and said, "It was you... who saved us?"

Daisy also looked bewildered.

So much has happened today that has completely overturned their worldview.

They had never even dreamed of being hit by a giant rocket while sitting perfectly fine on the second floor.

Even more outrageous and unbelievable is that Lu Ming managed to make such a large transport vehicle disappear just like that... It's even more terrifying than a superhero in a movie.

"I don't have time to explain. All I can say is that if we don't address the root cause of the problem, everyone will die."

Lu Ming looked around at everyone and continued, "Let's make this clear first. I only save those I can save. If anyone doesn't want to live and goes to commit suicide, then I'm sorry, I can only let you die."

After this incident, these people had no choice but to accept the existence of death.

Even Eric, who had been jumping around the most enthusiastically before, now obediently shut his mouth and dared not say anything more.

Lu Ming did not have the ability to use the blood-stained old newspapers.

It's quite troublesome to alter the memories of so many people at the same time.

Moreover, Lu Ming was unsure whether the Grim Reaper would cause any "accidents" during the memory alteration process.

It's possible that after Lu Ming removes their faces, they will never wake up again.

"If we can save one person, we can win the team competition mission; if we save seven people, we can complete the extra mission... In short, we have enough people."

Lu Ming mimicked the gesture of a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner taking a pulse, touching the hands of all of Daisy's family members.

A pattern resembling the Chinese character "囍" appeared on everyone's hand. This pattern was a dull red color and grew on everyone's arm. Just looking at it gave people goosebumps and was extremely creepy.

This is Lu Ming's plan.

In the mysterious world of resurgence, vengeful spirits can turn ordinary people into ghost slaves after killing them. Every vengeful spirit that can use the ghost realm has the ability to create ghost slaves.

Ghost slaves have no reason and have no relation to their former selves except for their appearance.

Becoming a ghost slave is no different from death, and one will unconditionally obey the vengeful ghost's commands.

Back when Yang Jian was at Dachang No. 7 Middle School, most of his classmates became ghost slaves in the Ghost Realm of Knocking Ghosts.

That's why it's said that if No. 7 Middle School wants to hold a class reunion, it can only be held in the ghost realm of the knocking ghost.

······
"Wow, what does this tattoo mean? It's so cool, I have to take a picture and show it off to my friends."

Eric himself works in a tattoo shop, so he is very interested in tattoo culture.

He just couldn't read Chinese, so he didn't know what Lu Ming had tattooed on his body.

Looking at him like this, Lu Ming couldn't help but think of the news he had seen before coming to the Main God Space.

Some foreigners don't understand Chinese, so they get tattoos randomly on their bodies, tattooing whatever looks good to them.

In the end, he got a tattoo of "two-bit" on his body.

Meanwhile, his cousin Bobby, not caring about anything else, shrank his neck and asked, "Don't you guys suddenly feel really cold? Is the air conditioning on?"

Of course, the air conditioning wasn't on in the room.

The reason for feeling cold is that the Ghost Slave Mark was not placed by Lu Ming, but by the Ghost Bride who was hiding in the shadows.

Daisy and her family have been corrupted by supernatural forces and are about to die.

After doing all this, Lu Ming began to wait quietly.

Perhaps these people are already dead in the eyes of death.

Therefore, the unseen and intangible "Grim Reaper" did not continue to cause trouble.

Time passed by, second by second. Soon.

Boom! ! !
A deep, muffled sound rang out.

Eric collapsed to the ground, his expression stiff and his face cold.

"what!"

Daisy emitted a sharp, popping sound.

But before the remaining people could react, several more muffled sounds rang out.

Boom! ! !
Boom! ! !
Boom! ! !
One by one, the people in the second-floor living room fell down, turning into cold, lifeless corpses.

In a short while, everyone was dead.

"Army!"

Jiang Zi was so anxious upon seeing this scene that she was on the verge of tears.

If a victim on the Grim Reaper's list is killed prematurely, will that count as a spot?

Obviously not.

At that time, Sister Xiao and her group were not counted as having been killed by the black man on the plane.

Why would the Marines make such an obvious mistake?!
At this moment, in the Main God Space.

The fat man couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"This Lu Ming is ridiculously stupid. If there was still a glimmer of hope before, the outcome is now completely decided."

"Indeed, in the end, it's just a team led by a fourth-tier challenger. Their strength is too weak, and they can't make use of any opportunities they get... If anyone is to blame, it's the unfair matchmaking mechanism of the God Space."

"That's not how it works. Since he actively chose to enter a four-star difficulty team PvP dungeon, he should be prepared to be thoroughly crushed..."

The challenger's words were cut short, only halfway through, before he was abruptly swallowed.

What happened next in the instance once again captured everyone's attention.

------

Lu Ming ignored his teammates' questions.

As Daisy's family faded into death, Lu Ming reached out and touched everyone's arms once more.

This action seemed no different from before, but in fact, it was the mummified bride who had marked them with the Ghost Slave Mark just now, while Lu Ming was the one marking them with the Ghost Slave Mark now.

According to the theoretical research of a paranormal professor in the mysterious revival, if vengeful ghosts can have ghost slaves, then ghost tamers who possess ghost domains can also create ghost slaves.

Moreover, there are significant differences between the two.

The vengeful ghost is dead, but the one who controls it is alive.

Even if they become the slaves of the Ghost Master, they will not lose their minds and are fundamentally different from other ghost slaves... They are not much different from normal living people.

The drawback of this practice is that if the ghost tamer who has been marked with the Ghost Slave Seal dies from the resurrection of the vengeful ghost, then the ghost slave of that ghost tamer in life will be absorbed by the resurrected vengeful ghost.

The moment Daisy's family died, Lu Ming helped them replace the Ghost Slave Seal, bringing them back to life just as they were killed.

This process erased these people from the Grim Reaper's list.

They were given a "new life".

"According to the original plot of Final Destination, all these people were supposed to die... including the female lead Daisy, no one could have survived."

"To remain conscious as ghost slaves and continue living is a good ending for them."

After doing all this, before Jiang Zi and the others could react, a semi-transparent system notification panel appeared in front of them.

The melodious sound of bells rang out.

This signifies that the team-based competitive dungeon has been officially cleared.

Jiang Zi was puzzled: "What's going on? The month hasn't even been up yet, how come they've already started settling accounts? Could it be... that everyone died, so we failed prematurely?"

Gao Mingzhe retorted, "No, look closely at the specific content on the panel."

Dense text began to appear on the semi-transparent panel.

This content will only be displayed after clearing the dungeon.

"We...we survived?!"

Lu Ming looked at the semi-transparent panel in front of him.

Final Destination

Difficulty: ☆☆☆☆

[Mission: Survive for one month]

[Current task completed]

[Reward: 10 attribute points (already issued)]

In addition, a points settlement screen appeared on the panel.

[Lu Ming: 8200 points]

[A random supernatural item (to be drawn)]

Generally speaking, clearing a horror movie dungeon on four-star difficulty will reward you with 2000 points.

However, this "Final Destination" instance is a special team-based competitive instance.

Moreover, the opponents they were matched with were extremely powerful, far exceeding the current level of Lu Ming and the others.

In addition, Lu Ming was the one who helped complete this mission.

Therefore, he directly obtained 8200 points, and the opportunity to draw supernatural items also fell into Lu Ming's hands.

Current points: 10020 → 18220

[Cumulative Points: 13320 points → 21520 points]

[Based on accumulated points, I have been promoted from a Tier 4 Challenger to a Tier 5 Challenger]

The panel continued to display densely packed small characters.

[Bonus Mission: Save seven people from the clutches of death]

[Reward: Master the ability to "inevitably die"]

Just like when he had commanded new ghosts before, a chill ran down Lu Ming's back.

"One Missed Call" is accompanied by a murder rule that guarantees death.

Calling this rule of killing an ability that is "inevitable to die" is not wrong; calling it "the Grim Reaper" is equally appropriate.

After the ghost call was given a death-inducing murder rule, Lu Ming could clearly feel that the supernatural forces he could summon had become stronger.

"This change is a good thing for mastering ghost paintings later on..."

After Lu Ming finished browsing the contents of the semi-transparent panel, before he could allocate attribute points or study the high-level abilities that fifth-tier challengers could unlock in the God Shop, the five of them disappeared from the spot.

They appeared in the white room of the Main God Space.

In a sense, the story isn't truly over yet.

For every loser, there is a winner.

Lu Ming secured victory in the team-based competitive dungeon.

As a result, Sister Xiao and her five companions were naturally defeated.

The little girl, now dressed in a loose leather jacket and pants, still had her hands on her hips and didn't make any further moves.

However, the arrogance and disdain she had shown before were no longer on her face.

Sister Xiao's face was deathly pale, devoid of any color, her lips trembled slightly, and her voice was trembling.

"What a joke!"

"What exactly did Lu Ming do?! Didn't he kill those ordinary people? Why did the God Space determine that he was the winner?!"

Sister Xiao was already somewhat incoherent.

She clearly remembered that just before Lu Ming and his group of five left the instance, Daisy's family had already become cold corpses.

She stiffly turned her head to look at the huge light screen on the other side, only to discover a horrifying scene.

In the living room on the second floor of the villa, Daisy and her family were lying neatly on the floor.

As time passed, one of the corpses suddenly moved.

Boom! ! !
Daisy suddenly sat up from the ground.

She forgot what had just happened, but felt something strange on her face.

After wiping my face, I realized that cold tears had been streaming down my face without my noticing.

Daisy's expression was even stranger, like she was crying or laughing at the same time, looking eerie and unsettling.

Eric woke up too, looking around blankly: "What... happened just now?"

Not only Daisy, but her whole family survived.

------

This scene completely extinguished Sister Xiao's last hope in the God Realm.

It wasn't a misjudgment by the Main God Space.

In the "Final Destination" scenario, Daisy's family was truly saved from the clutches of death by Lu Ming using some incomprehensible means...

The four people, tall, short, fat, and thin, had incredibly interesting expressions, looking at Lu Ming as if he were a ghost.

From their very first meeting, Lu Ming had never suffered a defeat when facing them.

Mysterious, powerful, and with an endless array of methods...

From beginning to end, their reason for looking down on Lu Ming was only one: Lu Ming's rank was only fourth level, and the rest of his teammates were only third and second level.

Sister Xiao's voice was icy: "Lu Ming, what exactly did you do?"

"Can you tell me exactly where we went wrong?"

"Even if I die, I want to die with some understanding..."

Lu Ming looked at the little girl in front of him, but did not answer. He simply raised his hand slowly, making a "goodbye" or "never see you again" gesture.

He couldn't be bothered to waste words with these dying men.

next moment.

The figures of the five challengers in Sister Xiao's team all disappeared into the white room.

"Speaking of which, I wonder how the Main God Space will deal with challengers who lose in team competitions... Will they be executed one by one like in Danganronpa?"
