The Mysterious Card Maker: Starting with Zhang Jiao's Deification

Before the words were finished, a dark shadow crashed to the ground with a "boom," leaving a huge crater in the ground.

The "person" suddenly looked up, its dark red eyes narrowing sharply as it stared intently at the large ghoul in front of it, its face filled with disbelief.

"Ghost Eater!" His voice trembled noticeably, and he gripped the bone scythe tighter. "What kind of day is this? Why are they all showing up like this?"

The ghoul opened its mouth, and "Ah! Ah! Ah!" sounds came from its throat, as if it was testing its throat.

"He, I, you, want to steal, die!" The ghoul slowly opened its mouth, uttering clear words as if it had gained sentience.

"What the hell? You think I'm afraid of you?" He steadied himself, the bone scythe spinning in his hand, his dark red eyes fixed on the Great Ghoul.

This time, the ghoul didn't answer, but instead beckoned with its finger, assuming a fighting stance.

They quickly clashed, and the 'human' bone scythe swung out, slashing straight at the ghoul. The blade's energy landed on the ghoul's face, leaving only a shallow bloodstain.

The person's pupils suddenly contracted, and their face was filled with disbelief.

"How is this possible..." Before he could finish speaking, the giant ghoul's hand had already struck, grabbing the 'person's' waist and lifting him up like a chick.

The sound of bones breaking was especially clear in the quiet night.

The "person" swiftly swung the bone scythe, slashing at the hand that the giant ghoul was holding onto.

One slash after another, dark green blood spurted from the ghoul's arm, splattering all over him.

But the ghoul did not let go; instead, it increased its grip, opened its mouth, and slowly stuffed the 'person' in its hand into its mouth.

"No..." the 'person' roared in terror.

The giant ghoul suddenly lowered its head and bit down on the 'person's' head.

"Click"

With a crisp cracking sound, the bone scythe in the 'person's' hand fell, and the hand that was slapping the giant ghoul stopped moving.

The ghoul suddenly shook its head, and the 'human's' body was flung away like trash, crashing into the fence and falling completely still.

His body slowly turned into dark red specks of light, which drifted away and finally disappeared completely into the darkness.

Nothing was left behind, as if there was no trace of his existence.

Lin Fan's pupils constricted sharply upon seeing this scene. The way this "person" died was exactly the same as Zhang Li of the Ten Thousand Spirits Society.

"The All Souls Society!" Lin Fan's mind went blank. He was both a monster and a human; he was a monster symbiote of the All Souls Society.

Lin Fan cursed inwardly, "Damn it, why did the Myriad Spirits Society target me? Shouldn't they be looking for the Qin family? Why did they come after someone as insignificant as me?"

Just as he was thinking, the ghoul turned around, its mouth facing Lin Fan and the other person, and said, "You, I, eat!"

Qin Muyao's breathing became rapid, and he almost gritted his teeth as he said, "Little... Little Black, what do we do now?"

Lin Fan saw that her hand was already in her pocket, ready to summon Zhang Fei at any moment if things went wrong.

"It's okay, I can handle it," Lin Fan reassured her softly. "Just focus on your livestream!"

Lin Fan looked at the Great Ghoul with confidence. One of his hands was seriously injured and bleeding. If he couldn't even handle this level of strangeness, then the card he made would be too useless!

The Underworld

open!

Lin Fan slammed the domain card onto the ground, and a burst of silvery-white light instantly erupted, causing the surrounding objects to quickly dissipate before being enveloped in darkness.

The ground turned into bluish-black stone slabs, with a faint mist seeping from the cracks.

The tree trunks in the community were now covered with dense runes, and several black chains hung down from the trees, moving on their own without wind, making a 'clinking' sound.

The phantom of the Gate of Hell gradually solidified, one black and one white, with the three large characters "Gate of Hell" on the gate appearing and disappearing in the mist.

The barrage of comments in Qin Muyao's hand exploded at this moment!

The barrage of comments flowed like a waterfall, and the number of online viewers soared from over three thousand to eighty thousand before slowing down.

What is this?!

[The venue has changed, is the domain card still there?]

Holy crap, this streamer is a real pro!

[Holy crap, what's going on? It's this exciting right from the start!]

Qin Muyao pointed the camera at Lin Fan, and looking at the ever-increasing number of people on the screen, she spoke with barely concealed excitement.

"Welcome, everyone, to the Gates of Hell!"

The ghoul stood at the edge of the silver light, its injured hand still dripping blood.

His eyes darted around as he scanned the changes in his surroundings, and his mouth stretched into a wider grin.

"You're enjoying your meal!"

Lin Fan stood before the gates of hell, his shocked expression hidden behind a white poplar mask.

How could these giant ghouls possess sentience? Aren't they brainless and driven solely by instinct? But looking at those lively eyes, they don't seem to be like those described in the "Encyclopedia of the Strange."

Or is there something else inside him? Could it be the All Souls Society again?

He stared intently at the Great Ghoul, dismissing his own thought. If they were both from the All Souls Society, they wouldn't be strangers.

Thinking of this, he took out two cards and threw them at the Great Ghoul.

"Come out! [Ba Bo'er Ben], [Ben Bo'er Ba]."

Two green lights flashed, and two Kalings with fish heads and human bodies appeared on either side of the Great Ghoul. At the same time, a swamp appeared where the Great Ghoul was standing.

His movements were instantly restricted.

The two fish monsters started talking as soon as they landed.

"Oh my god, what is this thing? How can it be so ugly?" Benboerba pointed at the Great Ghoul with his fishbone hammer, his fish eyes wide open.

"Exactly, even uglier than you!" Ba Bo'er chimed in.

"Bullshit! What's ugly about me? I'm handsome!" Benboerba retorted, turning to glare at his younger brother.

"Can you two stop arguing?" Lin Fan sighed, adjusting his mask.

"Big brother said, stop arguing!" Benboerba raised the fishbone hammer.

"Then stop arguing!" Baboerben also picked up a steel fork, looking ready to fight.

"You started the argument!"

"It's you!"

The two fish-like monsters, with their backs to the giant ghoul, were arguing fiercely.

The giant ghoul struggled to get up in the mud, but found that it had nowhere to exert force, so it could only slap down on the two fish monsters.

Ba Bo'er Ben, as if it had a premonition, jumped to the side and dodged away.

"Oh dear, this big guy has a bad temper!" Benboerba exclaimed.

"Big brother, can we fight back?" Ba Bo'er asked.

Lin Fan nodded: "Beat them to death."

The two fish monsters exchanged a glance, and a strange smile appeared on their fish faces at the same time.

They moved.

"Splash, splash"

The two fish monsters burrowed into the mud and occasionally struck the giant ghoul with their hammers.

The giant ghoul was being entangled by the two little creatures. When he reached out to grab Benboerba, Benboerba stabbed him with a fork.

It turned to grab Baboerben, but Baboerben swung a hammer at it again.

Before long, the ghoul was covered in green blood, and his previous injuries made his aura barely perceptible.

"Brother, this big guy should be dying soon. Are you going to do the final blow yourself?" Benboerba handed the fishbone hammer to Lin Fan.

"Brother, brother, use mine! My steel fork is sharper; one thrust and you're dead!"

"No need, you guys do it." Lin Fan waved his hand. How could he personally take on such a dangerous task? What if the monster retaliated after he died? He couldn't withstand a single blow from that big guy.

Something seemed to flash past the ghoul, his eyes became vacant, and then with a "bang," the ghoul turned into a blue light and floated to the ground.

The two fish monsters vied to hand the cards on the ground to Lin Fan.

[Mourning Bone Club] (Blue), plus 2 [Bone-Eating Tooth Enamel] (Green), 2 [Ghostly Condensate] (Green), and 1 [Broken Finger Bone] (Green).

Lin Fan looked at the card in his hand, then paused, surprised. "Not bad luck!"

Benboerba and Baboerben also turned back into cards. Before leaving, Benboerba shouted, "Big brother, call us again next time you have a fight!"

Baboerben chimed in, "That's right, that's right! It's been so long since I've felt this good!"

The green light dissipated, and the two fish monsters disappeared.

The phantom of the Gates of Hell slowly dissipated, and everything returned to normal.

"What is that!" Lin Fan saw a dark shadow flee quickly as the gates of hell dissipated.
