Chapter 129: Officially hunting ghosts, they are all food!

~7 min read 1,383 words

Ma Zhen walked directly into the mall while carrying a bag.

Entering an unknown Haunted Domain alone, especially without understanding the rules, is extremely dangerous even for a Night Watcher.

Everyone looked at Su Jinlong one after another.

Su Jinlong frowned. He didn't pay too much attention to Ma Zhen's impulsiveness, but instead had people place equipment in the eight corners of the mall, shrouding the entire building within it.

Collecting ghost energy for adjustment.

Ghost revival has been going on for hundreds of years, and the authorities have many means to deal with it, including the progress of laboratory technology in recent years.

Ghost Artifacts and other things capable of suppressing and analyzing ghost energy have been born.

Members of the research institute went to set things up in advance according to Su Jinlong's instructions.

Ever since the incident at the school, he had to be on guard against the Death Peach Vine.

Setting this up in advance could suppress the release of energy within the Haunted Domain and detect changes in ghost energy at any time; once the Death Peach Vine appeared, measures could be taken.

"Teacher, Ma Zhen has already gone in. What should we do?" Zhang Miao was a bit worried.

Although Ma Zhen was an expert sent by the superiors to assist Su Jinlong in resolving the Death Peach Vine, his identity was ultimately that of the Ma Family. If something happened to him, wouldn't the Ma Family jump over the wall like a dog?

In that case, Su Jinlong would be the first one unable to escape.

Su Jinlong gave a cold hum: "It's not that easy for something to happen to him. Divide the squad into three parts and come in with me."

"Preliminary reconnaissance shows the mall's Haunted Domain is divided into five floors. You might be randomly teleported after entering. Remember, write down the Haunted Domain rules; prioritize your own safety before doing anything else."

"Yes!" Zhang Miao, Liu Li, and the others nodded.

Generally speaking, the birth of a Haunted Domain signifies a change in a ghost's strength; ghosts capable of birthing a Haunted Domain are all very strong.

In normal times, once a ghost appears, the best choice is to wait—wait for the Haunted Domain to disappear, or enter it to crack it only after understanding the rules.

But special circumstances are an exception, namely rescuing hostages.

This is the mission of the Night Watchers.

The number of people trapped in the entire mall exceeds one hundred, and the authorities take it very seriously.

From receiving the news until now, more than half an hour has passed.

Before this, no one knew the time difference of the ghost's generation in the mall, so time waits for no one; the people inside would all be in danger.

Every Night Watcher carries professional equipment and instruments, much like a black box, capable of recording their voices but unable to record images.

Many Haunted Domains appear not just because of ghosts; in some places, ghosts are actually born because of the Haunted Domain.

Changes in the magnetic field affect everything.

The official Night Watchers have officially intervened.

At the same time.

In the parking lot, a small red toy bear was moving its feet slowly, holding an iron chain in its hand, seemingly looking for something.

All the surveillance cameras in the parking lot had lost power, yet they were emitting a red glow.

A closer look revealed that the reason these cameras were still emitting a red glow was because they contained eyeballs; the blinking eyeballs seemed to be searching for something.

The entire parking lot was dark green; the floor was, and so was the ceiling.

It was just that the ceiling was boundless, like a dark green sky.

"Hehe, where did you hide? Come out quickly, come out and play with me." Zhang Yi held the iron chain and activated the power of judgment.

Today, although his Fear Level was still stuck at 6, his strength had undergone earth-shaking changes.

He now needed to spread fear while hunting ghosts.

The magnetic field around this mall had already changed, and he had smelled it long ago, so he left early to come and hunt.

There was no need to worry about Xiao Wan; Lin Qing was there.

Although Lin Qing did not have a Ghost Tamer contract with Lin Xiaowan, her strength was also very strong, reaching Level 5; it was difficult for ordinary ghosts to pose a danger to her.

So far, he had already hunted one ghost; although its level wasn't high, it still counted as a solid boost of experience points for him. Right now, there seemed to be another ghost hiding in the parking lot, but he hadn't found it yet.

Therefore, he wandered through the parking lot, holding the iron chain.

Hiss, hiss—

In front of the parking lot, inside a black sedan, a man and a woman were hugging each other tightly.

Their faces were full of terror, and they were filled with fear of their surroundings.

The shroud of the Haunted Domain had plunged the entire parking lot into another world, and all communication equipment was paralyzed.

The vehicles couldn't be driven out at all; the entire parking lot had no exit.

"Sob sob sob, have we encountered a ghost wall? I'm so scared." The woman had yellow hair and a high, straight nose bridge.

She was originally a cold and aloof imperial sister, but at this moment, her makeup had been streaked by tears, and she looked very disheveled.

The man, on the other hand, was also scared out of his wits, his whole body trembling, but he still braced himself against the fear, hugging her tightly and gasping for air.

His gaze darted all over the car windows.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. This is a ghost wall. As long as we don't move and wait quietly until dawn, we'll be fine."

The voice had just fallen.

They heard a harsh, grating sound of an iron chain being dragged across the floor.

There was also a fearful voice; they couldn't understand what the voice was saying, but it was as if they could feel it saying: Where are you, where are you?

The woman was so scared she was like a little kitten, burrowing hard into his arms, but even so, she couldn't hide her trembling body: "The ghost is here, is it here? Is it here to find us?"

Gulp—

The man swallowed his saliva. He looked at the car window cautiously; if anything went wrong, he would run immediately.

Clang—

Suddenly, a knocking sound came from the glass on the right side of the car, giving them a fright, but it disappeared again quickly.

The two were so scared they almost lost control of their bowels. The left hand lunged for the car door, only to find it wouldn't open at all.

Thump, thump, thump—

The parking lot was like a huge, enclosed, empty valley; it only took a tiny sound to produce a massive echo.

It was as if a night owl was walking, walking slowly, tearing wounds into one's heart.

"What is it! Didn't you say we'd be fine as long as we hid inside? Take a look!"

The man swallowed his saliva, suppressed the fear in his heart, and slowly leaned his head over.

But there was nothing there; outside the car window, there was nothing, and it was quiet.

The woman also leaned over and found nothing, only then letting out a sigh of relief.

"There's nothing there. You scared me to death; I thought there really was a ghost." The man let out a long sigh, hugged the woman, and slowly turned his head.

His eyes subconsciously glanced at the windshield, and the next moment, he froze completely.

A drooling ghost, its dark green tongue covered in pus sores, with one eye large and one small.

Its facial skin looked as if it had been forcibly stitched on with dead wood, emitting a foul stench.

"Ah—" The two were startled and lunged to grab the car door handle.

But no matter how hard they pulled, they couldn't open it.

The next moment, a voice came.

"Hehe, finally found you!"
