I have a ghost diary
Page 221
Chu Jiang was startled. Was it really the same target?
However, he remained outwardly calm and simply asked, "Where exactly is that bell? Don't tell me it's inside Ghost Abyss."
Sister Bei shook her head. "No, according to my subordinates, that bell might be in a shrine in Japan, being used as a regular [Hon-tsubo Bell]."
"It's the bell that people pull after they finish worshiping the gods in front of the temple."
"However, the number of shrines in island nations is nearly 90,000, just those that are registered, not to mention the unregistered ones, so this work is very difficult to carry out."
Chu Jiang shook his head. "Then there's no use in you coming to me. You should go to Seireitei. With their status in Japan, replacing all the bells at every shrine in the country shouldn't be a problem for them."
"Unfortunately, our Church of the Holy Word and the Seireitei have no relationship, or rather, the people there are very xenophobic."
“But you are different, Mr. Chu. The Seireitei needs your help now. If you step in, they will definitely be willing to do you a favor.”
"Of course, we can't reveal our purpose directly, lest those guys be polite on the surface but cheat us behind our backs. We'll discuss the specifics when we get to the island nation."
In short, Belfast's tone suggested that she truly considered Chu Jiang a partner.
Chapter 371 Level Zero Sealed Artifact
Chu Jiang pondered for a moment but did not give an answer immediately.
Just then, the BRPD called, cautiously inquiring whether the false god incident had been resolved.
So Chu Jiang handed the diary page to Sister Bei and told her to leave first, saying that he needed to rest for a day before giving her an answer.
Belfast seemed certain that Chu Jiang would agree, "Then I will personally go to your hotel at midnight tomorrow night."
After saying that, she left in her high heels without saying anything to Jade, which made Jade a little uneasy, worried that she might not have done a good job.
After watching the graceful black figure disappear from sight, Chu Jiang replied to Bruce, "It's mostly resolved. What's the situation you're observing outside now?"
Bruce found it incredible that Chu Jiang had sealed away the false god in such a short time; yet, given the inhuman power Chu Jiang had previously displayed, it seemed that this was not entirely impossible...
“Now that observations of El Paso from the outside are normal, we’ve discovered through satellite that many people are in critical condition. Can we send rescue teams in to help them?”
"Oh, by the way, there was also a global anomaly recently; all electronic screens displayed the same message..."
Chu Jiang agreed, "Understood. The specific situation is a bit complicated; we'll discuss it in detail when we get back. Also, we can organize a rescue operation now. El Paso should be safe for now."
"Okay, okay, how are you feeling? Do you need our help?" Bruce was still a little worried, concerned that the ghost inside Chu Jiang might go out of control, which could potentially lead to a new S-class incident.
"I'm fine, but there's a critically injured patient on the verge of death..."
Before Chu Jiang could finish speaking, Bruce immediately reacted, "Okay, our Texas branch has a Ghost Master whose ability is to transfer damage. As long as he's not dead, everything is fine."
"Okay, I'll be right there."
After saying that, he picked up Jade around the waist and, to her astonishment, transformed into a black-gold beam of light that pierced through the building above and flew back the way he came.
......
Four minutes and thirty seconds later, Chu Jiang quickly returned to the Dezhou branch.
Bruce was still on the phone arranging manpower for various tasks when he paused for a moment when he saw the beam of light shining through the unrepaired hole in the window.
Bruce's expression became even more strange when he saw that Chu Jiang was holding Miss Jade in his arms.
He knew that Chu Jiang had long coveted Jie De, and after this, Chu Jiang would probably succeed.
This made Bruce sigh for Jade's "unfortunate" fate; indeed, sometimes, even beauty is a mistake.
Chu Jiang put Jade down expressionlessly. "Where is she?"
Bruce immediately composed himself and stood up. "They're over at the third building, and they're on their way now."
What happened next was simple. Chu Jiang handed the little girl over to the ghost master for treatment, and then went into a room alone with Bruce to explain the current situation.
Chu Jiang didn't hide much, only erasing the existence of the Holy Word Sect, indicating that he had only sealed a part of the false god, and its consciousness had already escaped into the network and disappeared.
Bruce felt very heavy-hearted after hearing this. He thought the false god had been completely eliminated, but he never expected it to end like this.
Of course, Chu Jiang has done an excellent job this time. He not only resolved the crisis in El Paso before the mass deaths of the citizens occurred, but also sealed away part of the false god.
Although the threat has not been completely eliminated, it has evolved into a global threat and is no longer just an S-class ghost entrenched on US soil.
To put it bluntly, even if Cyber God really causes a major incident, it will most likely be a global paranormal organization that has to shoulder the burden, and it won't just be a matter for BRPD alone.
After listening, Bruce immediately went to report to his superiors, while Chu Jiang went back to the hotel to rest first, without rushing to mention the matter of compensation.
......
As soon as he returned to his room, Chu Jiang could no longer hold on. He collapsed onto the bed, pale-faced, clutching his chest with his right hand. His body was alternating between hot and cold, and he curled up in pain.
Chu Jiang hadn't experienced this feeling of being tormented by ghosts in a long time.
Actually, things are much better than when he first became a Ghost Master. At least Chu Jiang has learned to manage his emotions, regulate his inner feelings, and prevent himself from truly becoming a cold-blooded and ruthless monster...
Just over an hour later, Chu Jiang pulled through. His recovery was much faster than he had imagined; he had thought he would be dead for at least a day.
It's estimated that the Black Sun can only do this much. Once Chu Jiang fully controls Chu Zhan's power, he should be able to completely eliminate this influence.
After taking a quick shower, Chu Jiang returned to the Dezhou branch.
When he returned to the room where they had been talking, Bruce was already waiting for him. This time, after finishing his report, Bruce had an extra briefcase in his hand.
Bruce didn't ask Chu Jiang what he was going to do after leaving. He simply stood up with a smile and said, "Thank you very much, Captain Chu, for your help this time. As for the reward..."
Chu Jiang waved his hand and said calmly, "Whatever. I promised you before that I would completely eliminate the false god, and you have to meet one of the two conditions I set out for you."
"I've only taken care of half of the false god so far, so you can decide on the reward."
“How can this be?” Bruce said seriously, “Captain Chu has come all this way for the sake of the American people and the BRPD, so we have decided to offer you a level zero sealed artifact as payment for your help this time.”
As he spoke, Bruce placed the briefcase he was holding flat on the table and carefully opened it.
This level-zero sealed artifact looks like a pale white die, but it's quite unique in that all six sides are black 6s.
In addition, the die was immersed in a sealed glass of water, the water of which shimmered with a faint golden luster.
"As you can see, this is a human bone die with six 6s on all six sides, which we call [666]. As we all know, this is a number that represents the devil, Satan, and is an unfortunate number."
"Its effect is that after the user rolls the dice, there is a possibility of receiving help or a curse from the evil spirit inside the dice."
Chu Jiang was initially a little surprised by BRPD's generosity, but after thinking about it, he understood that it was a gesture of goodwill. They would likely need to deal with Chu Jiang a lot in the future, so they couldn't be too stingy now.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Chu Jiang has indeed demonstrated great strength.
However, the more Chu Jiang looked at the die, the more ominous he felt. Moreover, Bruce's words were too vague, and he was worried that there was a trap involved.
Chapter 372 Are you trying to draw an SSR here?
"Tell me in detail about the effects and side effects of this 666," Chu Jiang said, staring at the dice.
Bruce coughed, and Chu Jiang thought he saw a hint of guilt in Bruce, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination.
"Because the sealed artifact 666 is extremely dangerous, we haven't conducted many tests. The current known results are as follows:"
"If a 6 is rolled, something terrible will happen to the user, including but not limited to sudden death, severe depression, suicide, the appearance of the Black Goat's Mark on their body, etc."
"If you roll a number other than 6, a mysterious power will be infused into you, and until this power disappears, you will feel that you are almost omnipotent."
"Wait a minute," Chu Jiang couldn't help but interrupt, "If all six sides are 6, how am I supposed to roll a number other than 6?"
“It depends on luck,” Bruce answered bluntly. “Occasionally, the user will roll a number other than 6, and whatever it is, it’s a good thing for the user.”
"What about the probability?"
布鲁斯再次咳了咳,“目前测试了一百个样本,其中有五次出现了6以外的数字,刚好是1、2、3、4、5。”
"Although the vast majority of cases ended in death, or in a deep coma or vegetative state."
"But those five lucky ones are in good condition, and the follow-up investigation has not found any aftereffects on them."
"Five percent?? Are you trying to draw an SSR here?" Chu Jiang frowned slightly.
"Offering a sealed artifact with such severe side effects as payment makes me highly doubt the sincerity of your BRPD. Of course, as I said, it doesn't matter; I would accept even a level 3 sealed artifact."
Bruce quickly put on a smile and said, "Please don't misunderstand, Captain Chu. First of all, I must admit that this level zero sealing artifact has significant side effects, but once it successfully takes effect, its power is terrifying."
At this point, Bruce opened the laptop on the desktop and played several videos of the "lucky ones" succeeding for Chu Jiang.
These people had black goat marks on their foreheads, black clouds rose from beneath their feet, and they hovered high in the sky, displaying all sorts of incredible powers.
For example, it can unleash black lightning, split the ocean in two, or create earthquakes.
However, Chu Jiang discovered something very strange: these lucky winners were all incredibly handsome men and incredibly beautiful women. Could it be that good looks give you an edge when it comes to rolling dice?
"As you can see, these people have gained power comparable to the gods in mythology in a short period of time, or it would be more appropriate to describe them as evil gods, so this thing is worthy of its classification."
"Finally, if we have to talk about the side effects of success, there is only one: when users gain these powers, they will become very charming and attractive in the eyes of outsiders."
"This kind of charm works regardless of gender. When we look at them through a screen like we do now, we just think they are very handsome or beautiful."
"But according to the people at the scene, they said they were like madmen, and had a strong urge to use the user."
Chu Jiang remained silent, but he still closed the briefcase and put the item away.
"Anyway, I'll accept this. By the way, what's in this glass? Holy water?"
“Yes, it’s specially formulated holy water.” Bruce nodded. “Actually, from our observation, it doesn’t really have any sealing effect on 666. It’s just that some superstitious old folks think it’s useful.”
Good heavens, Chu Jiang said praying to gods and Buddhas was useless, so where did this holy water come from? It turns out it was just a psychological comfort.
......
Next, Bruce transferred one billion US dollars to Chu Jiang on the spot, and then went to continue his post-disaster work, while Chu Jiang went to check on the little girl's condition.
The little girl is fine now and is sleeping soundly in the rest room.
Of course, the price was that a ghost master with tenacious vitality took the brunt of the damage in her place.
In addition, the BRPD also found out the little girl's background and name. She was the daughter of an ordinary middle-class family in the United States, and her name was Mia.
Now that Mia's parents have passed away, the BRPD plans to send her to an orphanage.
Chu Jiang had no objection to this, only asking them to take good care of this kind-hearted little guy, to which the BRPD personnel readily agreed.
Even Paul, the firefighter Chu Jiang met during the castle incident, is now receiving extra protection from the BRPD, not to mention the others Chu Jiang specifically mentioned.
