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

Chapter 73 Li Leping, the Night Wanderer (Please continue reading)

After following Cao Yanhua into the conference room, Yang Jian noticed that many people were looking at him with great interest.

Some of these people were familiar faces to Yang Jian, while others were people he was meeting for the first time. But regardless of their background, they were all undoubtedly veterans in the paranormal community.

"Ghost Eye Yang Jian from Dachang City has arrived."

As a ghost controller who has handled S-level paranormal events, Yang Jian's reputation is undoubtedly quite prestigious.

And just now, he publicly slapped Gao Zhiqiang off his WeChat Moments.

Even if you have the ability, not everyone has this kind of courage.

Yang Jian ignored the scrutinizing gazes, found his name tag, and took a seat.

Those gathered in this conference room were the top ghost controllers at headquarters. As for leaders like Liu Xiaoyu, they were turned away and not allowed to attend this top-secret meeting.

Perhaps under the influence of the supernatural, so many ghost tamers failed to notice that a pool of water had appeared in the corner of the conference room at some point.

This pool of water is a supernatural phenomenon originating from the water ghost controlled by Lu Ming, and can also be considered a special ghost realm.

Cao Yanhua probably never imagined that Lu Ming, whom he considered a troublemaker, would attend the meeting he was chairing in such a way.

Lu Ming silently sensed the situation in the conference room.

He recognized many of these people, such as Cao Yang, who would become the captain in the future; Jiang Shangbai, the ghost tamer introduced in the captain's plan on WeChat Moments; and a guy who was talking to Yang Jian, named Li Leping.

From other people's perspective, Li Leping is a very special oddball. He wears a black trench coat and his appearance is not particularly outstanding or eye-catching. When you look into his eyes, you will not notice anything unusual.

But once this person is out of your sight, you'll find that you can no longer remember what they look like.

"Li Leping, who has mastered the Forgotten Ghosts."

Lu Ming was somewhat surprised.

It wasn't because Li Leping appeared in the meeting room.

Rather, it was because he was not affected by Li Leping's forgotten ghost, and he had various memories of Li Leping in his mind.

This is quite strange.

Because Li Leping's supernatural abilities did not fail, as evidenced by his conversation with Yang Jian in the conference room.

As soon as Yang Jian looked away, the image of Li Leping in his mind would immediately become blurry.

"You are······"

“Yang Jian, it’s normal that you don’t recognize me, but the name ‘Ghost Eye Yang Jian’ is quite famous. I’ve heard of him often.”

"..."

Lu Ming stared at the reflection in the water, lost in thought.

"Could it be because my mental strength has been enhanced, so I haven't been affected by the ghost's supernatural power?"

"No, that's not right, that reason doesn't hold water."

“Strong mental strength can only temporarily alleviate the erosion of consciousness by supernatural forces, and the so-called alleviation is not absolute.”

“My memory of Li Leping is very clear, and there is no trace of being affected by the Forgotten Ghost.”

After some thought, Lu Ming came up with a possibility.

“Perhaps, the memories of Li Leping existed before I, as a transmigrator, entered the mysterious world of revival. Therefore, these memories are not within the scope of the Forgotten Ghost’s judgment. This explanation makes more sense…” Li Leping’s supernatural abilities could have an effect on Lu Ming, but they could not be judged by the Forgotten Ghost, and thus could not make him forget his existence.

"I'm afraid even Li Leping himself wouldn't have imagined that he could control four ghosts—the Forgotten Ghost, the Ghost Smoke, the Ghost Seeking People, and the Sleepwalking Ghost—and that the most crucial one, the Forgotten Ghost, would be subdued by me... In this light, Li Leping doesn't pose much of a threat to me."

The meeting officially began only after Cao Yanhua and Wang Xiaoming entered.

There was a seat next to him with a nameplate that read "Old Qin," but it was empty at the moment, and no one was there.

Most of the ghost tamers didn't seem to care much about this.

In their view, the so-called Elder Qin was more like an honorary guest, without real power or ability, so his presence or absence wouldn't have much of an impact.

This scene didn't give the ghost tamers present much thought, but it startled Jiang Shangbai and the others.

Those who were ghost tamers with some background had all heard of this old man's existence to some extent.

All that is known is that this old man is extremely mysterious, but no specific details are known.

the other side.

Qin Lao's absence reassured Lu Ming a lot.

This seems to be expressing a certain attitude.

It doesn't necessarily mean support.

But at least it shows that this old man from the Republic of China era will not take the initiative to interfere in the feud between Lu Ming and the headquarters.

"For me, this is a good thing."

···········
The meeting officially begins.

After rambling on about some useless details, Cao Yanhua finally got to the main topic of the headquarters meeting.

They discussed the aftermath of the ghost messenger incident.

After he explained the killing patterns of the ghost messengers to the ghost tamers attending the meeting, the ghost tamers, who had been nonchalant and inattentive, all became serious.

These people previously only had a vague understanding of the ghost messenger incident, having only heard that it was a supernatural event whose level of terror could be classified as S.

However, they were unclear about the specific mechanisms of the ghost messengers.

Even now, upon hearing the simple twelve words "unsolvable suppression, death when alone, restart when alone" and the specific examples, everyone feels a strange sense of lingering fear.

Putting ourselves in their shoes, if we placed them at the training base where the ghost incident occurred, would they be able to resolve this paranormal event?
They probably won't even be able to survive.

"According to Minister Cao, if this thing is given some time, it can wipe out the entire population of a country. Even the top ghost tamers wouldn't be able to stop it. We are not even in the same league as this ghost."

"So who was the main person in charge of resolving this paranormal incident? That guy probably has a lot of say in the captain's plan..."

"In my opinion, there probably isn't anyone who can resolve paranormal events like you mentioned. The only chance of survival in the face of a paranormal event of this level is luck, coupled with teamwork."

A demon tamer confidently patted his chest and concluded that he was so sure of his theory that he wouldn't tolerate any questioning from others.

Cao Yanhua, who was at the front of the conference room, looked around and gestured for others to stop, saying, "Alright, Yang Jian, Li Jun, Jiang Shangbai... everyone has made significant contributions to the Ghost Messenger incident, but now is not the time to reward them. The reason we have gathered everyone here today is to discuss the follow-up to the Ghost Messenger incident."

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Cao Yanhua casually read out a few names, but Lu Ming was not among them. It seemed that the one controlling the Forgotten Ghost was not Li Leping, but Lu Ming, as if the high-ranking officials at headquarters had completely forgotten his existence.
