Chapter 145 Captains join forces to enter Dadong City

Chapter 145 Captains join forces to enter Dadong City
The changes in Dadong City attracted the attention of countless people.

The captains' meeting held at the headquarters caused countless people to start waiting and watching.

With the increasing number of supernatural incidents, things have been quite unsettled recently, with things seeming to get out of control both at home and abroad.

"Is this Dadong City? I've seen it in photos, but when I actually came near this city, I was still inevitably surprised."

Outside Dadong City, a man with an ordinary appearance and a cold aura was standing at the street entrance of the city.

"That's why I asked everyone to participate in this supernatural event first."

"This ghost has extraordinary growth potential and is also intelligent. If we let him do whatever he wants, who knows what kind of trouble he will cause next."

Yang Jian stood not far behind the man, looking at the city with fear in his red eyes.

"I didn't expect you to come here in person. Isn't this ghost quite good at restraining your ghost den?"

Li Leping turned around and said to Yang Jian behind him.

"I thought you would choose to let other captains participate and not come yourself."

"I did have this plan, but if you fail, I alone will not be able to resist this ghost." Yang Jian did not deny this.

"Although my combat power was somewhat weakened when facing this ghost, I still have other means."

"Besides, I have asked for help to deal with this ghost."

While the two were talking, a group of people with dry and paper-like skin walked over on the road in the distance.

"Yang Jian and Li Leping?"

One of the paper figures walked forward, nodded at Yang Jian, and then spoke to Li Leping with some suspicion.

"It's me." Li Leping was used to it.

Although they had just held a captain's meeting at the headquarters a few days ago, it happened from time to time that Li Leping was forgotten in the blink of an eye.

The Forgotten Ghost controlled by Li Leping is too special. This ghost will make people instinctively ignore its existence.

If the person is not strong enough, he may even forget all memories about him.

In other words, the supernatural powers of these captains are strong enough. Although they will ignore Li Leping, they will still retain their impression of him when they see him.

"Where are the others? I didn't expect I'd arrive quite early this time."

Liu San looked around but did not see any other captains.

"Here it is."

With a gust of wind, a person appeared on the road.

This is Cao Yang. After Fang Shiming's death, Cao Yang controlled some of the evil spirits left behind by Fang Shiming. Together with his own evil spirits, he is now a strong captain.

"I'm here too."

At the end of the road, a woman wearing an old black sweater also came over.

He Yiner is the fourth generation necromancer of Taiping Ancient Town.

At that time, He Liansheng took advantage of Zhang Hao's control of Ghost Lake and entered the lake to rescue her.

And relying on the necromancer's unique methods, He Yin'er was resurrected.

"I brought some old objects left over from Taiping Ancient Town, which should be helpful in this battle."

There was hatred in He Yiner's eyes. The Red and White Evils were the evil spirits that destroyed the ancient town of Taiping. She dreamed of imprisoning this ghost.

Because of the special means of summoning souls and resurrecting them, although He Yin'er is now similar to an alien, she has not lost too many emotions.

Compared to other captains who use special means to make evil spirits mistakenly believe that they are human.

He Yiner is actually controlling evil spirits as a ghost now, but this ghost exists in reality for a longer time.

"Where are Li Jun and Han Mo? They should be here soon, right?"

"In the past, when everyone gathered to participate in supernatural events, they were always the first to arrive."

After seeing He Yiner, Liu San looked around.

After a few minutes, a young man quickly came over from a path.

"You came a little late this time." Liu San said dissatisfiedly.

"Sorry, but I hope it doesn't delay anything?" Han Mo raised his head and looked around, and found that Li Jun had not arrived yet.

"The condition of my feet is a bit special. I can only walk here, which takes a long time."

Everyone looked at Han Mo's feet. They were a pair of dark dead person's feet. With Han Mo's footsteps, marks were left on the ground.

"These are a pair of feet that cannot be diverted by evil spirits and can step on evil spirits." Yang Jian looked at Han Mo and made an inner judgment.

These feet can prevent other evil spirits from shifting his position, and are very effective when facing evil spirits in lair.

But at the same time, it will also limit him from using abilities like the Ghost Cave.

"Keep waiting. Li Jun hasn't come yet. If he hasn't arrived in half an hour, there's no need to wait."

Yang Jian looked at the time and there were two minutes left until the agreed time.

According to Li Jun's personality, if he had nothing to do now, he should have arrived early.

"Could there be some kind of accident?" Yang Jian stared at the distance, thinking secretly.

In order to ensure success, Yang Jian informed Li Jun about the ghost furnace fire.

After Li Jun learned about the existence of this thing, he immediately expressed his desire to try it.

It has been more than two days since Li Jun entered the Caesar Hotel. If everything was normal, he should have been released by now.

Time keeps passing.

Half an hour passed quickly.

When the group was about to stop waiting, a faint green light finally appeared in the distant sky.

"Sorry I'm late. I found something at Caesars and it took me some time."

Li Jun's pair of empty eye sockets were burning with ghostly green fire, which was extremely creepy.

Looking closely, deep in the dark green will-o'-the-wisp fire, there is some golden flame standing in the center of the will-o'-the-wisp fire like a pupil.

Seeing that no one spoke, Li Jun knew that they were waiting for his explanation.

After all, if it wasn't some important discovery, there was no need for him to waste time there.

"The ghost newspaper seems to be related to the Keys Hotel. I found a lot of newspapers in a corridor deep in the hotel that seemed to have no end."

"I thought about it again because the newspaper ghost had been to the Caesars Hotel before and then disappeared, so I spent some time thinking about it."

Hearing this, everyone nodded. If it was news about the Ghost Newspaper, it would indeed be worth spending some time on.

After all, this supernatural event has brought considerable harm and impact to reality, and no one has discovered how this thing delivers newspapers.

"Let's talk about the Ghost Newspaper Agency later. Now it's time to enter Dadong City."

Yang Jian raised his hand. The most urgent task was to deal with the Red and White Devils, not the Ghost Newspaper Agency.

"By the way, where is your helper?" Li Leping asked.

Hearing this, Yang Jian looked into the distance and saw a woman in red and cheongsam who had been standing there for a long time.

Seeing everyone looking at her, the cheongsam woman gave a charming and seductive smile in return.

"Just call her Sister Hong. She is a ghost rider from the Republic of China period." Yang Jian said calmly.

"Hey, don't say that. It makes me sound like I'm so old." Sister Hong said dissatisfiedly when she heard that.

"I'm only in my twenties, okay?"

Hearing this, Yang Jian sneered. "Twenty-something? That's Liu Qingqing's age, right?"

"Isn't it the same?" Sister Hong spread her hands, acting indifferent.

"Get it straight. I am your helper. Not only did you not try to please me, but you even mocked me."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian did not answer. He just looked at the other party coldly and walked towards Dadong City.

Seeing this, the other captains looked at each other and followed Yang Jian.

"Oh, what a man who doesn't understand romance." Sister Hong sighed and followed him.

"There's really nothing I can do. I really want to get rid of this ghost."

The group of eight people walked into Dadong City.

A supernatural event dispatched seven captains and an unknown foreign aid.

As soon as this news was released, it completely shocked the entire supernatural community. There were only twelve captains in total, not counting the captains who had gone offline, and now there were only two captains left outside the headquarters.

It would be good if we win this time. If we lose, the headquarters will really have to rely on those two captains to survive.

"Sure enough, the Red and White Devils have become even more bizarre."

Just as he walked into the city and heard the occasional crying sounds coming from the city, Yang Jian frowned and took out a red ghost candle and lit it.

The red ghost candle began to burn violently as soon as it was lit. According to this trend, it would burn out in about three minutes.

Moreover, they are still only in the marginal area of ​​Dadong City. As they go deeper into the center of the city, the burning speed of the ghost candle will surely increase again.

"We haven't encountered the source ghost yet, but the supernatural phenomena floating around the city have reached this level?" Cao Yang looked a little solemn.

Although it is difficult for them to make a big contribution to supernatural events, the role of the ghost candle is still significant.

At least when exploring supernatural events, lighting a ghost candle can give them the ability to judge the current situation.

Moreover, the lit ghost candle was extinguished instantly, which gave these captains time to react.

Even when facing those terrifying spiritual places, the red ghost candle can prevent them from consuming their own state before coming into contact with the source ghost.

However, we haven't seen the red and white evil spirits yet. Just by walking into the ghost den, the ghost candle is burning so fast. It is hard to imagine what it would be like when facing a real evil ghost.

"Is your candle just some kind of disposable consumable item? I do remember there is a candle workshop somewhere, but it's hard for me to get it by myself."

Sister Hong looked at the burning ghost candle and said, "After we solve this problem, Yang Jian, how about you be my driver for once and I'll take you to get it?"

Hearing this, Yang Jian's expression changed slightly.

Red candles? Is it some kind of evil spirit with the same effect as a ghost candle?
The current ghost candles are indeed unable to keep up with his pace. If the candle workshop has the ability to produce stronger ghost candles, it would be of great help to him.

"Bang bang bang!"

Just as the group was moving forward, a dull collision sound was heard from the street not far away, attracting everyone's attention.

Everyone, including Sister Hong who was still talking, became alert and stopped talking at this time.

Everyone present has rich experience with supernatural events, otherwise they would not be alive today.

In such a dangerous place, they started to act the moment they heard the sound.

Liu San controlled the paper man to go forward and clear the way, and Li Leping walked behind the paper man.

Although Yang Jian's ghost eyes were closed at this time, a pool of water appeared under his feet, and a golden spear was pulled out by him.

As the group walked through this empty city, they finally discovered the source of the sound.

In a colorless square ahead, people in mourning clothes stood there, kneeling and worshipping the tallest building in the city.

That number must be hundreds of people.

"Bang!" As Li Leping stepped forward, the horrifying spirit began to corrode one of the people who was wearing mourning clothes and kneeling.

Soon, the man's movements stopped and he fell to the ground, his body undergoing strange changes.

Under the man's body, a pool of strange and cold water appeared, and the man's body was slowly becoming transparent, as if it was being eroded by some kind of supernatural force.

A moment later, the person attacked by Li Leping had completely disappeared, leaving only a piece of water-soaked mourning clothes on the ground.

"Ghost slave?"

Cao Yang looked at the pale figures in the square and was somewhat surprised.

Each of these kneeling creatures exudes a terrifying aura, no less than a real evil ghost. I didn't expect that it was just a ghost slave.

"Be careful. Although we don't know what these ghost slaves are like, if we are besieged by a large number of ghost slaves in mourning, I'm afraid even a captain will be exhausted to death here."

Yang Jian's already heavy mood became even heavier after seeing the situation of these ghost slaves.

The situation of these ghost slaves is very similar to the ghost babies encountered in Dachang City, but these are not ghost babies, but another kind of strange thing.

Although it can be killed by supernatural beings and is not a true evil ghost, it is much more terrifying than ordinary ghost slaves.

It may not be appropriate to say that this is a ghost slave. It is a product of the concept of funeral.

Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it a mourning ghost.

The killing of the first ghost slave seemed to attract the attention of other ghost slaves in mourning in the square.

At this time, the ghosts in mourning clothes who were kneeling towards the city center looked in the direction of Yang Jian and others.

As these ghosts in mourning clothes watched, the ghost candle in Yang Jian's hand burned violently.

"Bang bang bang!"

At the moment the ghost candle burned out completely, the sound of skulls hitting the ground rang out one after another.

A strange cry sounded in the square, which seemed to evoke something in this black and white ghost den, and the surrounding black and white trees made a rustling sound.

Deep in the city, at some unknown time, strange crying sounds were coming towards this side.

"Not good! The attack by these ghost slaves will attract other spirits in this black and white ghost den. We need to get rid of them as soon as possible."

Li Jun was startled, and the ghost fire on his body instantly ignited the entire square.

Logically speaking, Li Jun's ghost fire should be able to easily burn these creatures that are not real evil spirits to ashes.

However, when the ghost's ghost fire covered these ghosts in mourning clothes, it seemed to be isolated by the layer of clothes on their bodies that seemed to be soaked with tears.

As soon as the ghost fire ignited the bodies of the ghosts in mourning clothes, it immediately fell to the ground along with the corpse water dripping from the bodies of the evil ghosts.

It was as if there was a thin film on the bodies of these evil spirits, preventing the ghost fire from touching the bodies of these ghosts in mourning clothes.

After the ghost fires fell to the ground, these ghosts in mourning clothes stepped directly on them, walked to an open place and began to kneel down again.

"This is the water from Ghost Lake!"

Yang Jian noticed this scene and was shocked. "Li Jun, be careful."

"I see."

Li Jun nodded. His ghost fire had once been sunk to the bottom of the Ghost Lake. After Yang Jian's reminder, he quickly discovered why his ghost fire could not ignite these ghosts in mourning clothes.

The water from the Ghost Lake and the mourning clothes protected the mourning ghosts from being suppressed immediately when they were ignited.

The water of Ghost Lake has the magical power to make everything sink. After coming into contact with the lake water, the ghost fire naturally fell from the mourning ghost.

"I can't ignite all of them instantly, but what if I only solve part of them?"

Li Jun looked at the few ghosts in mourning clothes approaching him and narrowed the range of the ghost fire.

Each of these mourning ghosts is not scary, but when so many of them are gathered together, the combined supernatural influence is enough to resist most supernatural attacks.

This situation can be avoided if we focus our attack on a small number of mourning ghosts.

Although the lake water on the ghosts has the ability to make the supernatural powers fall off their bodies, it cannot affect the ghost fire until a certain amount of supernatural power is added.

Li Jun's approach is also what other captains do.

Faced with so many ghosts in mourning clothes, it is very difficult to deal with them all at once.

A cold wind with the stench of corpses blew out from Cao Yang's body, which lifted up some of the ghosts in mourning clothes who were kneeling and crying.

Unable to kneel, the supernatural powers of these mourning ghosts were mostly gone, and Cao Yang easily dealt with these mourning ghosts.

Liu San doesn't have any ghosts, but his attacks are not weak either.

Especially the human wave tactics. Facing these mourning ghosts, paper figures came out from Liu San's side and attacked these mourning ghosts one by one.

Yang Jian’s approach was even simpler and more direct.

The coffin nails and hatchet in his hands are powerful weapons.

As the coffin nails continued to pierce the bodies of these mourning ghosts, they were quickly killed by Yang Jian one by one.

At the same time, a pool of cold water appeared under Yang Jian's feet.

Although he cannot use the Ghost Den now, the Ghost Lake can also be considered half a Ghost Den.

In the stagnant water, the shadow of a large wolfdog was reflected.

As the wolfhound continued to leap out of the puddles and pounce on the ghosts in mourning, the ghosts began to fall to the ground one by one, and their skin became transparent.

However, Yang Jian didn't notice.

After being killed, the bodies of several of the mourning ghosts lost their color and completely became illusory and disappeared.

But the wet mourning clothes did not disappear. Instead, they fell to the ground and came into contact with the accumulated water.

Some mourning clothes even fell directly into the puddle. The clothes, which were already soaked in water, now became wet and floated on the surface.
