Chapter 42: The Laboratory Intruder

On the other side, Han Mo, who had just returned to Dajing City, also received this news.

"Red and White Double Evil is roaming again?"

Han Mo found Yang Jian, his complexion extremely grim.

"Yes, what exactly happened before? Seven Ghost Tamers, and four of them were captain candidates, and they just fled in disgrace?"

Yang Jian stared at Han Mo; whether it was Han Mo, Liu San, Jiang Shangbai, or Zhong Shan, they were all captain candidates.

It's hard to imagine that these four Ghost Tamers, when faced with the Red and White Double Evil, could only choose to run away.

Han Mo, upon hearing that, showed a hint of fear in his eyes.

He slowly began to explain the events of that time to Yang Jian.

The first ghost Han Mo commanded was called Ghost Blocking Disaster, which could transfer and share damage between both parties.

The second ghost he commanded was a Fierce Ghost named Shedding Skin Ghost.

After commanding this ghost, each time he died, he would not truly die but would shed a layer of skin.

However, this does not mean he cannot die; the shed skin is important to him, which is why he asked Liu San to help clear the Shedding Skin.

"Is that really how it works?"

Having understood the cause and effect, Yang Jian showed an incredulous expression.

That even without a Ghost Domain one could Restart is truly hard to accept.

"When a Ghost Domain becomes strong enough, it can affect the Time Restart," Yang Jian murmured softly.

"But the Red and White Double Evil is more like an individual Restart."

Speaking of that, Yang Jian recalled his experience in Huanggang Village.

At that time, the ghost in Huanggang Village could not be confined; even when they sealed the ghost inside gold, it still reappeared.

Only after finally returning the ghost to the Coffin and imprisoning it together with the gold did they prevent its reappearance.

"Red and White Double Evil, Ghost Summoning, and everything in the livestream, Zhang Hao's portrait."

"Something unusual must have happened between the Ghost Bride and the Crying Tomb Ghost after they were thrown off by a bus."

Yang Jian murmured softly; he was very wary of the Red and White Double Evil.

If possible, he did not want the Red and White Double Evil to continue its growth.

This ghost was truly bizarre: first it went to Caesar Grand Hotel, then inexplicably appeared in Da Chang Shi.

Now it has even assembled a team that, just by looking at it, makes people instinctively uneasy and want to avoid.

Han Mo kept dialing phones, confirming the information, and when he learned that the Red and White Double Evil was advancing toward Dajing City,

his complexion darkened and his tone became suppressed.

"I suspect Liu San failed to destroy my Shedding Skin before that ghost, and now that ghost is coming straight at me."

"Yang Jian, I have to leave now."

Yang Jian, hearing this, flickered his gaze and thought, "Do you mean the Red and White Double Evil obtained the layer of skin you shed, and now it's hunting you through that Shedding Skin?"

Han Mo nodded: "Every Fierce Ghost has its side effects."

"Although the Shedding Skin Ghost gave me strong survivability, once the Shedding Skin is taken by a Fierce Ghost, it also brings me trouble that's hard to handle."

"Although I think Liu San's strength should be able to deal with the Shedding Skin, to be safe I'll first leave Dajing City and find a place without people."

Yang Jian nodded, not insisting that Han Mo stay.

The Red and White Double Evil suddenly headed toward Dajing City; that possibility was indeed real.

On the other side.

In a courtyard house in Dajing City, an old man holding a golden cane walked slowly.

He also held a newspaper, reading it with interest: "August 27, 2017 – Red and White Double Evil forms the Funeral and Kinship Squad and departs for Dajing City."

"August 29, 2017 – Beautiful Country Ghost Train appears, taking down a powerful killer."

"September 2, 2017 – Mysterious Coffin descends in the New Century; the Village has been destroyed and he begins to hunt Fierce Ghosts."

The newspaper listed one piece of information after another about Fierce Ghosts.

"Didn't expect that the newspaper that loves to report recklessly would slip out as well?"

The old man's gaze was distant, looking toward ZS City.

"Paranormal phenomena will inevitably revive; it can't be stopped."

"But before that, I can still make one final stand for this era, and incidentally take away some of the trouble‑making, everywhere‑roaming things."

The old man's eyes suddenly became sharp, his gaze bright, as if he had made a firm decision.

The news of the Red and White Double Evil heading to Dajing City drifted away slowly.

As for the Red and White Double Evil, after Liu Tianyi appeared once during a livestream, no further news followed.

The once‑bustling Red and White Double Evil seemed to fall into silence.

Although the livestream exposing the Ghost's Killing attracted many eyes, it was soon ignored.

After all, it was merely an A-Class Paranormal Event; the Headquarters certainly has capable people who have dealt with A-Class Paranormal Events.

The Headquarters even has those who have handled S-level Paranormal Events.

In this era when talent gathers in Dajing City, hardly any Ghost Tamers worry about the Red and White Double Evil.

Compared to the Red and White Double Evil, the confirmation of the captain position draws more attention.

On the other side.

About ten kilometers beyond the Training Base lies a special Experimental Base.

This Experimental Base was built specifically for Wang Xiaoming, to study various Fierce Ghosts or Supernatural Artifacts.

Famous items such as the Ghost Candle, as well as the Headquarters' method of commanding a second ghost, were all developed in this Laboratory.

At this moment, the Laboratory was empty, with only a few security guards patrolling outside.

At this moment, a man with a resolute face but a dazed expression and somewhat vacant eyes walked into the Laboratory.

The man entered the Laboratory and began to inspect the surroundings.

As a Laboratory that studies the supernatural, it contains countless Supernatural Artifacts, but fortunately they have mostly been isolated by gold.

Otherwise, following the man's method of searching, one would inevitably die inside this Laboratory.

After a round of inspection, the man finally focused his gaze on a certain spot.

There was a small room there; through a specially made glass one could see a Coffin placed inside, and nothing else.

The man approached the room, pushed aside the Golden Gate used for isolation, and an old Coffin appeared before his eyes.

Hong Bai Shuang Sha-colored paint brushed onto the slightly aged Coffin under dim lighting appeared extraordinarily seductive.

Although no corpse lay beneath the heavy Coffin lid, the feeling was overwhelmingly grim and uneasy, as if something inside was gestating.

It is an unknown, incomprehensible terror.

After opening the Golden Gate of the room containing the Coffin, the man did not linger in the Laboratory and soon left.

His arrival and departure seemed to attract no one's attention.

He appears to be a person of relatively high rank within the Headquarters.

Brothers, start adding updates; from today onward, update with more than six thousand words daily.

Also, seeking reads, monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, and donations—reads especially, reads especially; this is very important to the author, as reads, monthly tickets, and donations are the author's motivation.
