Mysterious Revival: My Path Through the Door

"Link, do you accept headquarters' mediation this time?"

Without delay, Li Leping presented the intelligence deal proposed by Link to the operator in front of Link and Liu San, asking in a serious tone...

Link stated definitively, "As long as you can make Fang Shiming suffer, I will accept mediation."

It must be admitted that, between this Sichuan-Chongqing duo, there are really not many things in the current paranormal community that they can't suppress.

"Please rest assured, the two of us city leaders were mobilized together to ensure the operation goes smoothly. I won't bother you any longer, and we'll meet again when we have the chance."

Li Leping looked relaxed as he got up and walked out of the villa.

"Manager Liu, let's do it together; it'll save resources."

A large hole quietly appeared on Liu San's back, and the paper figures behind him began to turn into tiny paper figures, crawling into his body one by one.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to face Link and utter some harsh words. His hoarse and deep voice was carried on a cold wind, as if whispering in Link's ear.

"The reason we didn't fight this time is purely because you were lucky. Headquarters had to protect you. You'd better watch your words in the future. Remember, there are always people stronger than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. If you piss me off, there's no one in the entire paranormal world that I can't take down."

Link's expression remained unchanged as he retorted, "Really? I don't think your paper doll supernatural abilities are that great."

The illusory pages of the book turned in the dark pupils, and a chilling aura spread out in front of and behind Liu San almost simultaneously.

Hearing this, Li Leping, who was almost at the door, turned around with unease, only to see a bizarre scene.

Behind Liu San, Link's figure, still patting a paper doll on the shoulder, was slowly dissipating.

This is due to the afterimage caused by moving too fast.

Li Leping looked astonished and couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.

Lin Ke and Liu San are both people who refuse to suffer losses. If they start fighting now, they will be the ones who have to mediate.

But it's good to have a little confrontation; settle the score on the spot and keep things quiet for a while afterward.

The same hoarse voice rang in Liu San's ears, like a thunderclap.

"Liu San, look behind you again!"

On the sofa, Link remained in a relaxed posture, seemingly without moving at all.

However, Liu Sanlai was not in his true form, and his senses were not sharp enough. He only noticed that Link seemed to have disappeared from sight for a moment.

Upon hearing the voice behind him, Liu San's stiff, sallow face showed a living expression for the first time. His eyes widened, and his two bright eyebrows almost popped out of his forehead.

He was shocked to discover that one of his paper figures had lost contact.

Slowly turning around, the remaining paper figures obediently continued to move closer to the hollow back, but...

There was only one exception.

The paper figure stood still, without shrinking, and walked step by step behind Link, right under Liu San's gaze.

During this process, even the face on top of his head strangely transformed into Link's appearance.

With the same sallow complexion and sickly appearance, they looked like long-lost brothers standing next to Liu San.

"You, what's wrong with you...?"

Liu San stared wide-eyed, momentarily speechless.

That was a ghostly paper figure he painstakingly made, risking the resurrection of vengeful spirits, and in the blink of an eye, it became someone else's property!

What's the difference between this and a minotaur in person?!

Link himself didn't speak, but the paper figure behind him chuckled and teased, "Manager Liu, there are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. Don't play those childish tricks in the future, or I'll learn them in one glance, and it won't be interesting."

kill……

We also need to attack their spirit!

"Whoosh..."

Liu San was furious and took deep breaths, but unfortunately, the air leaked out from behind him, making a loud noise.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Recalling Link's information, he laughed angrily, gritting his teeth and saying, "Very good, as expected of someone who can replicate supernatural beings. I, Liu San, admit defeat this time. Next time when we have time, we'll have a proper contest. I want to see just how capable you are, you counterfeit."

After Liu San finished speaking, without waiting for Link to retaliate again, fearing that the paper figures would be stolen again, he stuffed the remaining paper figures into his body in one go and hurriedly slammed the door and left.

Judging from the looks of it, he was probably heartbroken, afraid that Link would steal another paper doll.

Seeing that the dispute had been resolved, Li Leping finally felt relieved and nodded to Link:

"Link, goodbye."

"Take care, both of you."

After the Sichuan-Chongqing duo left, Link manipulated the paper figure to stand in front of him, feeling the connection between the two, and felt relieved.

During the standoff, he recorded the supernatural phenomena Liu San used.

The core of Liu San's ability to control paper figures lies in the splitting and transfer of consciousness.

He can separate the consciousness that inherits his own memories from his body and transfer the consciousness to a special supernatural object—a paper doll—to carry the consciousness.

Once consciousness is separated, it becomes an independent individual with the ability to act autonomously and can also inherit some supernatural powers from the original body. Its level of terror is indeed comparable to some vengeful ghosts.

Although it is impossible to achieve real-time synchronization of the memories of the original body and the clone, the memory sharing effect can be achieved through mutual contact.

Unfortunately, perhaps due to his own poor condition, only half of Liu San's large collection of paper figures possessed Liu San's consciousness; the rest were backup paper figures driven by supernatural forces, used to bluff.

Therefore, Link used the Traveler's teleportation ability, which was extremely fast, to instantly appear behind Liu San and transfer his separated consciousness into a ghostly paper doll, easily completing the control.

Unfortunately, time was too short, and Liu San's supernatural event was only recorded once. The consciousness of this paper figure could not be retrieved, and it could only exist in this state indefinitely.

But it's okay, I successfully got a freebie, and the annoyance of being blocked at the door by the Sichuan-Chongqing duo early in the morning immediately disappeared.

Link smiled and touched the paper figure's body with his fingers, discovering that it wasn't just the feel of yellow paper commonly used in the funeral industry; its toughness and smoothness seemed almost comparable to human skin.

"The feel and quality are both very good. This paper figure also inherited a small part of my supernatural power, which helped me share some of the pressure of the two ghosts' resurrection. Plus, it was free, so the cost-effectiveness is off the charts. I feel like it's perfect for being used as a security guard for the Ghost Mirror."

The paper dolls' fighting power is evident in the original work; however, in high-level situations, they are like balloons, exploding at the slightest touch, and their effectiveness is even less than that of a golden body bag.

Moreover, Link only has this one paper doll right now. Rather than using it as a consumable item for scouting, it's better to leave it at the rear as a backup for reviving teammates.

While she was thinking, Qi Wanhe appeared on the second-floor railing, slipping on her slippers. Still sleepy, she looked down and asked in confusion, "Did someone come to visit just now? I think I heard you talking to someone."

Link shrunk the paper figure in front of him and replied with a smile, "There were two friends from Sichuan and Chongqing. They had some things to do, so they chatted for a bit and then left..."

"The assets in Dachang City are basically all settled. You should get some rest and sleep a bit more. We'll pack our things in the next couple of days and head to Dachang City. You'll be busy then."

Qi Wanhe smiled shyly, poked her two index fingers together, and said in a soft voice:

"But I'm hungry, I really want to eat before I can fall asleep."

Link got up to continue cooking, but found that the beautiful woman upstairs didn't seem to have any longing for breakfast at all; instead, she was staring straight at him.

"Sigh... I just can't do anything with you."

Link sighed helplessly, walked upstairs, and took off his clothes.

Being a powerful demon tamer who can single-handedly suppress the resurgence of evil spirits is troublesome; you have to start working hard early in the morning.

……

Inside a speeding vehicle in Dachang City.

Liu San's hoarse voice rang out:

"You're very strong. Link wasn't afraid of me before and even wanted to fight me, but he gave up the idea after you showed up."

His face no longer showed any anger or frustration; his gaze was fixed on Li Leping, as if trying to see right through him.

Li Leping nodded and said, "You're very strong too. I can sense that your main body isn't here. Using a clone to deal with Fang Shiming, do you think that's a sign of exceptional skill and daring, or is it just shifting all the risk onto your teammates?"

The atmosphere inside the car instantly plummeted to freezing point.

Liu San lifted a piece of yellow paper from his arm, revealing a section of a highly decomposed, greenish-brown corpse.

"Of course I have that confidence."

"Then how about a pleasant collaboration?"

"It's a pleasure working with you."
