I have a ghost diary

That's getting off topic. Secondly, as Bayonetta said, he's unkillable.

To be precise, this information was revealed to Sister Bei by [Yiyu].

Why did Chu Jiang react so strongly at the time? It was because he thought of a possibility: there is only one thing in this world that is absolutely unkillable, and that is a ghost.

Being a ghost? That's outrageous! Something must have gone wrong somewhere...

Finally, the peculiarity of the ramblings far exceeded Chu Jiang's previous estimates.

He didn't quite believe that the ghost's prophetic abilities were really that outrageous, but one piece of information revealed by Sister Bay was crucial.

She said the Ghost Diary stole the power of the babbling tale, which might be why the babbling tale wanted the diary—it wanted to reclaim its complete power.

The Ghost Diary spans three realms: sealing, prophecy, and domination, which even the old man said is quite special.

Could it be that the Ghost Diary's actual abilities aren't these three things, but rather theft?

Or perhaps it's just about domination. The so-called theft of power is merely a manifestation of domination, like the previous Ghost Bride who could forcibly control the goddess statue and the power to reverse time.

But the diary itself should have the ability to seal, otherwise how could it have sealed away ghosts one by one in the first place...?

Then there is one last possibility: although the page containing the false god and the page containing the ramblings were both torn off by humans, these two ghosts were later unexpectedly freed.

However, this liberation was incomplete and fragmented, resulting in a portion of their authority remaining in the Ghost Diaries, thus amplifying the Ghost Diaries' original abilities.

In short, regardless of the possibility, the Ghost Diary in Chu Jiang's hands is now a hot commodity. It's likely that not only Yi Yu wants it, but even the False God wants it.

In that case, Chu Jiang will have to be careful when he enters El Paso. It is very likely that he will be targeted by the false god before he finds anything unusual.

Chapter 351 All Information Related to the False God

The following morning at nine o'clock, Bruce arrived on time to pick up Chu Jiang and take him to the local branch.

After a night of internal mediation, the BRPD members finally reached a consensus.

Of course, the most important reason is that those who were previously unconvinced by Chu Jiang and wanted to show him "American power" have now fallen silent after learning that Chu Jiang has mastered the Black Sun.

The ghostly domain that enveloped the entire city last night put considerable pressure on them; in fact, before Chu Jiang used this power, some people had suspected that he had not sealed the black sun himself, but had used a trick.

After all, he was a complete newcomer at the time.

But now nobody doubts it anymore; they're just discussing why this guy can be so freakish.

Many people began to speculate that he was a successor of a certain ghost master family, who had received the residual benefits of the previous round, or even several rounds, of supernatural resurgence, which was why he could grow at such a terrifying speed.

In fact, there are similar supernatural traditions abroad, but for some reason, they are scattered and few have preserved a general system like those in Kyushu.

.......

The BRPD's Texas branch, located in the Texas State Capitol, makes no attempt to conceal its ties to the federal government.

Chu Jiang went to the private office prepared for him on the second floor, where he could access all the information, data, and evidence related to the false god so far.

Several prisoners of the Crimson Rose Cult were even isolated in a separate room, awaiting interrogation by Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang was also fully committed to his work. Even though he had become much stronger, he still needed to be cautious when facing an S-class ghost.

After learning more about the false god, or rather, the ghost, Chu Jiang was quite surprised.

Because it wasn't what I imagined, this ghost seemed to have never commanded the mad cult under its command.

The false god, this demon, has been residing in the Terrell Church in El Paso since the day it appeared.

On the day it appeared, it cruelly killed all living things in the church, and at the same time, it appeared on all the electronic screens in the city.

No, on that day, most people across Texas saw the ghost on television, computers, billboards, digital watches, and car displays.

However, what they saw was not the whole picture, but only a blurry black outline.

According to eyewitnesses, the figure looked like a twisted being draped in a wide black robe.

Chu Jiang had expected to see a video, but there wasn't one; the information said that the video saved afterward didn't show any trace of the ghost.

Chu Jiang only saw a dozen or so sketches, based on the viewers' descriptions.

The common feature of these images is a tattered black cloak, beneath which lies a chaotic, dark, humanoid figure, and within that darkness, a deathly pale male face with closed eyes.

Moreover, this face did not appear at the head position, but rather at the center of that darkness, roughly equivalent to the area between a human's chest and abdomen.

This incident shocked many people who witnessed the false god; some of them became interested in the ghost and began to search for all information related to it.

Despite the BRPD's strict control over related information, the highly developed network still managed to connect these people.

They met in person, they formed a worship organization for "God," they risked their lives to explore the Church of Terrell, and they gained power within the church...

Yes, not all of these madmen who dug the tunnel into the church died, and those who came out alive all possessed special and bloody abilities.

Although the BRPD completely sealed off all passages to the church, preventing anyone from entering that dangerous place, members who joined the Crimson Rose Cult later often acquired abilities of varying strengths over time.

BRPD experts speculate that these people have likely established some kind of supernatural connection with the false gods, becoming their ghostly servants, but still managing to maintain a certain degree of rationality.

This immediately reminded Chu Jiang of the Black Sun, which could also transform people into "living ghost servants"; however, those people did not have any special abilities, and would only possess certain supernatural powers after they died and were transformed into black fire skeletons.

In short, this is how the Crimson Rose Cult came into being, simply because they saw the image of a false god.

This is certainly not a mass hysteria. The BRPD believes that it is a false god who exerted a supernatural influence on everyone who saw the images.

However, only those with weak wills, dark hearts, and destructive desires will become fanatics of false gods.

These people desperately wanted to return to the church to serve the gods who had descended to earth.

However, due to the obstruction of the BRPD, they were unable to enter and could only cause trouble everywhere, including staging several horrific blood sacrifice rituals in an attempt to please the false god.

Whether this method is effective remains to be seen, but in any case, this sect has spread throughout the Western world and has become a public enemy.

However, according to a series of investigations by the BRPD, the false god never seemed to have given any orders to this sect, nor had he issued any divine pronouncements. Instead, it was a chaotic internal council that decided what to do next.

Although members of parliament occasionally claim to have received divine guidance, none of them can provide any evidence; they mostly use this as an excuse to form cliques and attack dissidents.

In short, it was a chaotic and notorious organization that had come to this point, and it was only natural that it was now being besieged by the people, with only a few die-hards escaping back to El Paso.

Chu Jiang even complained that these people were inefficient, allowing this cult to run rampant for so long.

And just as Chu Jiang had thought, the god of the Holy Word Cult is definitely conscious, and under its control, the Holy Word Cult is more than a hundred times stronger than the Crimson Rose.

As for whether the false god is conscious... we still don't know for now. The information given by the Chen family in Yanjing before was: the ghost that admires the god seems to have the instinct to spontaneously develop believers.

This aligns with the behavior of the false god, which has indeed developed a group of followers; however, it seems to be more concerned with giving birth than with nurturing, and it's unclear what its purpose is in doing so, merely acting according to its own instincts.

Chu Jiang remembered this and continued to look at other information.

The members of the Crimson Rose Cult possess abilities largely related to blood, which puzzled Chu Jiang. The Chen family claimed that Mu Gui had mastered the power of the [Sealing].

Of course, it is also possible that a false god possesses more than one ability; for example, the Black Sun has several abilities.

.......

Since the appearance of the false god, the BRPD has not only cracked down on the cults that arose from it, but has also tried to target its true form.

After all, this is a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment, so it's best to eliminate it as soon as possible.

However, the BRPD launched three operations, all of which ended in disastrous defeats, with each operation resulting in total annihilation; otherwise, they wouldn't have stooped to go to Kyushu to seek help from the research institute and Chu Jiang.

Even more shameful is that the BRPD members have never formally met with the false god.

The first time, the assault team entered the church, but instead of finding the main figure, they encountered a group of angel statues.

These stone statues possessed a very strange power, and after transmitting some data, the team was wiped out.

The second time, the team thought that they should at least find the location of the false god's main body first, and no longer hoped to kill the opponent.

However, after finally escaping the statues' pursuit and entering the depths of the church, they were completely cut off from the outside world and never came out again.

The third time, this time it wasn't to deal with the false god, but because something was wrong in El Paso, and they went into the city to investigate. The result was the same: lost contact and disappearances. This time, they couldn't even get into the church.

Of course, the disastrous results were also related to the fact that BRPD dared not let some of its strongest seeded players in; if even the strongest group of demon masters died in the church, the organization would suffer too great a loss.

Just like last time in China, when something happened in Luohe City, the 21st Research Institute did not choose to send all the team leaders to the front lines.

This information wasn't entirely meaningless to Chu Jiang; at least he learned that there was a group of strange angel statues in the church, and that their abilities were not simple or repetitive, making them very difficult to deal with.

The final section mainly describes the recent anomalies in El Paso, similar to what Bruce explained, but in more detail, and includes some written documents and telephone recordings available for review.

After watching and listening, Chu Jiang had only one thought: This is abnormal.

Even though Chu Jiang couldn't understand English and needed the staff next to him to translate for him, he could still hear the changes in tone and emotion.

Even though he couldn't understand it, he could eliminate semantic interference and focus on analyzing the mental state of these city residents.

They are generally... optimistic? Relaxed? Content?

In short, everyone was in a very positive state; no one's tone was low or gloomy, which would have been quite abnormal.

After analyzing the three main parts of the data, Chu Jiang checked the maps of El Paso and Terrell Cathedral, made an electronic copy of it, and stuffed a few paper copies into his left hand.

He also researched the local religious history, including the construction date of Terrell Church and major historical events, making sure to cover every detail, just in case the false god did not appear in the church randomly, but with a purpose.

In short, Chu Jiang was busy from nine in the morning until three in the afternoon after moving into the office.

Finally, he also met with several members of the Crimson Rose Cult in person.

These people were listless and their thinking was somewhat confused, as if they were on drugs. There wasn't much information that could be extracted from them, not even as much as the data compiled by BRPD.

With that, Chu Jiang had basically completed all the necessary preparations. He met with Bruce again and learned from him the specific members of the special operations force.

This unit is tentatively set to have seven members, six of whom are highly skilled individuals carefully selected by the BRPD from across the country. They are not only formidable as Ghost Masters themselves, but also equipped with the latest high-tech equipment from the United States.

As for the last person, Jade, she actually got involved and even gained the trust of the BRPD, successfully joining the team.

P.S.: I only wrote one chapter today, 3190 words, mainly due to health reasons.

Today is the fourth day after the surgery. The first two days were mainly about swelling and pain, but it was okay because of the gauze wrapping.

I went to have the gauze removed yesterday morning, and then the wound started oozing tissue fluid, which was very uncomfortable. The wound was also swollen like a swimming ring.

I can't stand or sit for long periods of time now; I'm only comfortable lying in bed. I haven't been sleeping well these past few days either...

Actually, I planned to finish writing this book and then find some time to get my foreskin removed.

However, I had an inflammation recently, and the medicine wasn't very effective. The doctor prescribed some medicine for me to soak in for a few days, and then told me to get it removed permanently.

So I went to have it removed, and I'll probably be in pain for a while...

Finally, this rambling is not included in the word count of the main text.
