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

Chapter 84 Headquarters Shaken (Please continue reading)

As Lu Ming left, the surging supernatural forces receded like a tide.

The light bulbs in the conference room flickered on and off a few times before coming back on.

The crimson ghostly mist had dissipated. The erosion of consciousness by the illusion was continuous. Fortunately, Lu Ming did not intend to kill everyone and suppressed the corrosive effect of the ghostly mist with other supernatural means.

However, no one dared to show a relaxed expression, because no one could be sure if this was the calm before the storm.

The next terrifying paranormal attack may well be brewing.

He single-handedly infiltrated headquarters, and even managed to gain an overwhelming advantage against numerous top-tier demon tamers...
To be honest, these ghost tamers would never dare to do such a thing in their wildest dreams, nor could they imagine that such ghost tamers actually existed.

But today truly opened their eyes.

"Has Lu Ming... already left?"

"It's hard to say, but the blockade of the Ghost Realm has been lifted, so I think we can take this opportunity to leave."

Before the ghost tamer who offered the suggestion could even make a move, he was already sternly reprimanded by another ghost tamer.

"Don't move! Do you want to kill us?"

"What do you mean? Instead of taking advantage of the lifting of the Ghost Realm's blockade, are you going to stay here and wait to die?!"

The Ghost Master who spoke up had a solemn expression and looked out the window, saying, "If Lu Ming has really left, then we are safe even if we stay in the conference room... But on the other hand, if Lu Ming hasn't left yet, and he removed the seal on the Ghost Domain, he may be waiting for us to leave on our own, triggering some kind of murderous pattern of the vengeful ghosts."

It must be said that the ghost tamer's considerations did make some sense.

The headquarters archives contain records of this kind of ghost as described by him.

In that paranormal event, as long as you stay in the designated area and don't move around, nothing will happen.

However, if you leave the current area, you will be attacked by vengeful spirits.

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed simultaneously.

If that's the case, wouldn't they be trapped here forever?

Moreover, Lu Ming controlled more than just one ghost.

He can kill someone with just a thought, regardless of whether the victim is an ordinary person or a demon tamer.

Jiang Shangbai, gritting his teeth and ignoring the advice of others, used his Ghost Domain to leave the spot.

This is certainly not because he is not afraid of Lu Ming.

On the contrary, he was afraid of Lu Ming, terrified.

He claimed to have a relationship with Lu Ming, but in reality, Lu Ming most likely didn't even know this nobody.

During a meeting held on the top floor of the Ping An Building, He Tianxiong even suggested eliminating Lu Ming.

If what that person said is true, and Lu Ming has used a ghost to keep everyone captive, then now is actually the best time to leave.

The attack of the vengeful ghost can be blocked with the ghost shroud. Even if this will cost Jiang Shangbai, it is still much safer than facing Lu Ming directly.

However, the anticipated supernatural attack did not occur until Jiang Shangbai used the Ghost Domain to leave the headquarters.

···········
The ghost tamers in the conference room started discussing among themselves.

Under Lu Ming's shadow, these usually arrogant ghost tamers all became like frightened birds, daring not to make any rash moves. It's no wonder they were so paranoid here.

Lu Ming's intrusion resulted in the loss of six veteran Ghost Masters and one high-ranking official, Shen Liang, at headquarters.

Not only that, the degree to which the vengeful spirits within the other people's bodies revived was also affected to varying degrees.

Even when facing real vengeful ghosts in paranormal events, they had never felt such a terrifying sense of oppression.

Cao Yanhua patted the table, signaling everyone to quiet down.

"Alright, stop arguing. Lu Ming has indeed left, but that doesn't mean the matter is over. We were wrong this time, and I have reflected on it... Starting today, the headquarters' management system will be changed."

According to the rules modified by Lu Ming's blood-stained old newspaper, Cao Yanhua would call Lu Ming "President Lu" in private, but would still call him Lu Ming in public, just to avoid arousing suspicion from others.

Cao Yanhua's words had just caught their attention.

The headquarters made a mistake and provoked Lu Ming, so the headquarters should bear the consequences. Why are they being affected?
These ghost riders were furious, but not at Lu Ming, but at headquarters.

"Minister Cao, since this matter has nothing to do with us, and we even went out of our way to help resolve it, do you think... we should receive some compensation?"

Cao Yanhua's expression clearly turned displeased, and he sneered, "What effort did you all put in? You were all hiding in the back pretending to be dead, weren't you? When Lu Ming was here, you didn't dare to utter a word, but now that he's gone, you've become arrogant."

The demon tamer, who seemed like a troublemaker, was about to argue back.

But upon hearing the name Lu Ming, he swallowed back the words he was about to say.

Judging from Cao Yanhua's appearance, it seemed that he had reached an agreement with Lu Ming, but it was unknown what price he had paid to get Lu Ming to leave.

Cao Yanhua ignored what these people were thinking, announced the meeting was adjourned, and after everyone left, he began to instruct his subordinates to clean up the mess.

This meeting place shows too many signs of paranormal activity and is probably no longer usable.

However, this is not a big deal, since it's not the headquarters in the city center of J that's being abandoned.

After dealing with these matters, Cao Yanhua found Wang Xiaoming alone and asked, "Professor Wang, is that ghost coffin still in your laboratory?"

Wang Xiaoming turned around and looked Cao Yanhua over: "The ghost coffin is indeed in my laboratory. This incident was caused by me. Minister Cao, just tell me what punishment you want. I have no objection."

Cao Yanhua shook his head: "I'm not asking this to punish you. After all, it has already happened, and there's no point in talking about it anymore. Lu Ming asked me to keep an eye on this ghost coffin for him. He will come to the lab to pick it up in a while."

"What does he want the ghost coffin for?"

Wang Xiaoming was startled at first, and before Cao Yanhua could answer, he said, "I suspect that the ghost messengers were conceived from the ghost coffin. Those things are extremely dangerous. The ghost messenger incident has not been completely resolved yet. My suggestion is to seal the ghost coffin first and then talk about it later."

"It's undeniable that the Ghost Coffin is extremely dangerous, but Lu Ming has convinced me. I'm willing to trust him and hand over the Ghost Coffin. Perhaps the Ghost Messenger incident will take a new turn."

After saying this, Cao Yanhua and Wang Xiaoming both fell silent.

Li Jun stood silently behind Wang Xiaoming, without saying a word.

He knew very well that Professor Wang had compromised.

Because Lu Ming had taken a liking to the ghost coffin, and Cao Yanhua, the minister, had also spoken up, it would be useless for Wang Xiaoming to persist.

Cao Yanhua came over specifically to give a heads-up.

As for Wang Xiaoming's attitude, it's not important.
