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

Chapter 69 A Temporary End (Please continue reading)
Beside her, Huang Ziya looked at Lu Ming and asked cautiously, "Professor Lu, is this paranormal event considered over?"

Lu Ming replied coldly, "Don't be so naive. That ghost is definitely more terrifying than you imagine. Although it can no longer take away the ghosts from the bodies of ghost tamers at will, ordinary people without ghosts in their bodies will still become its targets."

Huang Ziya shrank her neck. Actually, she didn't quite understand, so she could only nod as if she did.

Yang Jian had now figured out all of Lu Ming's arrangements and couldn't help but sigh, "He can even manipulate the rules of vengeful ghosts like this. Lu Ming's thinking is simply not like that of a normal human being, and there are so many secrets about him that I don't know about."

Fighting against vengeful ghosts requires taking enormous risks with every decision.

It is truly remarkable that he could remain calm and give orders under such circumstances.

Lu Ming had no time to care what the others were thinking.

He knew very well that luck played a significant role in his survival this time.

Even if you know the ghost messenger's killing patterns in advance, the situation can change in an instant. You have to be wary of the dangerous ghosts and also prevent your teammates from getting killed.

Lu Ming already knew the plot of those horror movie instances in the Main God Space, so speedrunning them wouldn't be difficult.

But the ghost messenger incident is different.

In paranormal events, the situation changes every second.

The final result is related to many factors.

Luck, mental fortitude, and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances are all indispensable.

"In the end, it's because our strength isn't strong enough to reach the level of overwhelming power... Just considering the Ghost Domain, if I could get the Mummified Bride to control the Ghost Painting Ghost Domain, the danger just now could have been easily resolved. I could have torn a hole in the Ghost Messenger Ghost Domain from the inside and pulled out the person I wanted to save."

"Of course, increasing the level of terror isn't simply about leveling up, fighting monsters, or collecting puzzle pieces. My current paranormal balance is built on the struggle between the Red Fiend and the White Fiend. The Ghost Bride's strength has already surpassed that of the White Fiend. If it weren't for Sadako suppressing it, there might be a trend of vengeful ghosts resurfacing..."

"Therefore, we can't rush to take over the Ghost Painting Ghost Domain. We have to take it one step at a time. At least we should wait until I improve the supernatural strength of Bai Sha and Zhen Zi first."

The ghost messenger incident was not completely resolved, but Lu Ming no longer needed to get involved in it. He could let things take their course and leave it to others to handle.

As originally planned, this would lead to the Ghost Painting incident, and when Lu Ming returns from the Main God Space, he might even be able to profit from it.

···········
Lu Ming also overheard Yang Jian's conversation with Shen Liang, the team leader at headquarters.

Headquarters required them to stay at the training base, but Lu Ming only had two days left to stay in the mysterious resurrection world. Asking him to stay at the training base obediently and not leave was simply wishful thinking.

The new recruits at the training base were somewhat resentful when they heard that headquarters required them to stay there for at least half a month, but they dared not disobey headquarters' orders.

From the day they become Ghost Tamers, their lives have already entered a countdown. Having a year or two of good life is already considered a great achievement. Headquarters wants to waste half a month of their time. Who can stand that?

Instead of wasting time at the training base, they might as well go out and have some fun.

Everyone had similar ideas, but no one dared to step forward and be the first to speak out.

As the ashes of the paper fell, Lu Ming used his Ghost Domain to be the first to leave.

Finally, a bold newcomer followed suit.

"Damn it, whatever. Those useless guys at headquarters, they were doing nothing when we were in danger, but now that the danger is over, they're jumping out."

Unbeknownst to them, the new Ghost Tamers' positive perception of the official organization was shattered by the headquarters' inaction.

—————— On the other side.

At the experimental base.

As Lu Ming had predicted, Wang Xiaoming led a group of top ghost controllers to bring the ghost messenger incident to a close.

However, this ghost was more troublesome than expected.

They didn't know what had happened at the training base; the rules of the ghost seemed to have changed, and its targets had shifted from ghost tamers to ordinary people.

None of the top ghost tamers present were within its attack range; only Wang Xiaoming, an ordinary person, became the target of the ghost messenger. After each restart, the ghost messenger would head straight for Wang Xiaoming.

Moreover, because the ghost messenger misjudged the number of vengeful ghosts it could suppress, believing that it could suppress zero vengeful ghosts, it would trigger the rule of individual restart once it was touched by the ghost tamer.

It has been restarted six times since the beginning; this is the sixth wave of attacks.

Jiang Shangbai, with his arms crossed, said dismissively in his WeChat Moments: "An S-level paranormal event is nothing special in the end. This ghost is harmless to us, and it's not dangerous at all."

Another ghost tamer glanced at him and retorted, "That's not how it works. Even if the ghost messenger won't attack the ghost tamer, it will kill ordinary people. Once this uncontrollable ghost is released, it means the destruction of another city."

Nearby, a ghost tamer named Cao Yang grinned as if he had heard something very funny and said, "Everyone, have you forgotten that, according to the intelligence we received, this ghost's killing rules were different before and now? You can't just sit here and make sarcastic remarks just because someone else has paved the way and planted the trees."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shangbai glanced at Cao Yang but did not refute him.

They all knew, of course, that Cao Yang was right.

However, this is a crucial juncture in the Captain's Plan, and being able to contain an S-class paranormal event would be a huge plus.

So everyone tacitly overlooked Lu Ming's contribution to this paranormal event.

"Alright, stop arguing."

Wang Xiaoming was not interested in the battles between these ghost tamers. His face was a little pale. Ever since the ghost messenger incident, this professor of paranormal studies had not seemed to be in good spirits.

This is because the belief he had always held onto had collapsed.

Wang Xiaoming's principle in doing things is to measure everything by its value.

But this time, in order to save him, Li Jun let the ghost messenger escape from the laboratory, thus causing a terrible supernatural event.

In Wang Xiaoming's view, his value is not that high. He is just an ordinary person, not a god. He will have pressure, things he cannot do, and times when his research fails.

Wang Xiaoming cannot accept this differential approach to dealing with others, where the value is measured by how others are valued while favoring oneself.

However, now is not the time for him to break down; the ghost messenger incident has not yet been resolved.

"The true form of the ghost messenger is actually this ghost realm in front of us, or rather, this ghost realm is a part of the ghost messenger. Wei Jing is just a coffin lid covering it... It's like an insect trapped in a sealed box. No matter how much the insect struggles, it can't possibly trap the whole box."

"Professor Wang, so you mean...?"

"Luring the ghost messengers back to the ghost coffin might work."
