Mysterious Revival - Chapter 1429 - 1396: The Ghost Herder's Desperate Struggle
In the town shrouded by the Ghost Domain, the battle was fierce, and life and death were decided in an instant. Leuk San’s paper man endured too many supernatural attacks and was nearly torn into several pieces. Although he could still speak, he was effectively out of the fight and unable to participate in the upcoming battles.
Fortunately, Leuk San held the status of a Captain Level, and the opponent couldn’t be completely sure that Leuk San at this moment was just a paper man.
Therefore, the first full-force attack from the King’s Squad was aimed at Leuk San, and it was absolutely impossible to target Ah Hong.
The decision was not wrong.
They simply underestimated the seemingly insignificant Ah Hong.
No one expected that after completing her ghost makeup, Ah Hong transformed into the Ghost Envoy Wei Jing, leaping from an ordinary ghost keeper to a Captain Level expert.
This miscalculation cost the King’s Squad a team member instantly.
“Don’t get close to this woman; I don’t know what method she used to steal the Ghost Envoy Wei Jing’s supernatural, but I believe she can’t maintain this state for long. Retreat first, avoid her for some time.” Someone urgently shouted while frantically retreating, not daring to be enveloped by the black Ghost Domain before their eyes.
The others were not foolish either and realized that Ah Hong was now desperately trying to take out as many of them as possible before her supernatural power ended.
However, as the black Ghost Domain attacked, the unlucky one was the ghost keeper who invaded Leuk San.
He couldn’t escape because he had already exhausted everything trying to kill Leuk San, and now it was too late to withdraw; his head was still stuck in Leuk San’s chest.
“Ah!”
Desperate screams rang out once again as the ghost keeper was suppressed by the Ghost Envoy’s power, becoming an ordinary person. Then, Ah Hong forcibly pulled his head out of Leuk San’s body, and with overwhelming strength, shattered the ghost keeper’s skull, blood streaming from his orifices, killing him on the spot.
The corpse was once again thrown onto the road.
The pitch-black Ghost Domain didn’t pause and moved to cover the third member of the King’s Squad, a female ghost keeper, who now fled in panic without looking back in one direction.
In this environment, the female ghost keeper couldn’t use her own Ghost Domain; only the Ghost Envoy’s Ghost Domain could spread without being affected.
The remaining two team members, seeing this situation, didn’t offer help. Instead, they fled in different directions.
“Don’t think you can escape; you all must die.”
Ah Hong’s figure appeared within the pitch-black Ghost Domain. She painfully covered her face, which was turning black and melting. One eye was already gone, and if this continued, she would soon become a Faceless Person. Once she became a Faceless Person, she would become useless unless someone could do her makeup and redraw her face.
But in this situation, no one would help her, so once her ghost makeup was ruined, death awaited Ah Hong.
“This crazy woman.” The female ghost keeper from the King’s Squad cursed in her heart, not daring to use supernatural power to fight back.
She knew the Ghost Envoy’s capabilities; all supernaturals would be suppressed to the point of ineffectiveness, making retaliation impossible. She could only find any way to stall for time.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Although the sudden backfire caused damage to the powerful ghost keeper, leaving decay marks on his face and body, these traces were reversed and repaired after a short while.
“Ah Hong managed to take down two of them? Very good.” At this moment, Li Jun glanced behind him, gaining confidence from the two corpses on the ground.
No longer Ghost Flame Li Jun, he was now a Ghost Shepherd.
Without ghosts around, Li Jun’s strength was cut in half, explaining why he didn’t seize the opportunity to retaliate against Simon earlier.
Now, there were ghosts.
Right on the enemy’s body.
The next moment.
The two bodies on the ground twisted bizarrely as if something terrifying was writhing inside. The cold corpse couldn’t confine the ghost within, and the limbs were torn apart by strange supernatural forces. The terrifying ghosts were awakening, and their revival speed surpassed any previous occasions.
“This guy’s supernatural power is different from intelligence reports, and the previous backfire was abnormal, seemingly due to some interference. Though he didn’t attack me during the backfire, perhaps out of concern for teammates or not wanting to expose too many secrets?”
Simon stood at the end of the road, staring intently at Li Jun in the distance.
At this moment, he lacked his previous ease, replaced by heaviness.
“Even without that hunting rifle, I can still take him down.” Simon no longer dared to use the old hunting rifle, unwilling to risk another backfire.
The next moment.
Simon’s figure vanished from the dimly lit road.
This was his Ghost Domain; he could change his position at will.
Li Jun noticed at this moment that the brightness around him was quickly disappearing, the dim haze seemed to thicken, blocking his view, making it difficult to see his surroundings clearly.
“Is the opponent contracting the Ghost Domain to deal with me with full strength? Good, his refusal to flee aligns with my objectives. As long as I can take him down here, everything will be worth it.” At this moment, his heart was not fearful, instead it was surging with energy.
This was what Li Jun had always wanted; he didn’t want to die anonymously from a ghost’s revival. He wished to die in battle for the headquarters and the place he had to protect.
At this moment, a pair of green gleaming eyes appeared in the dim surroundings. These eyes were fierce and wicked, devoid of human emotions, and eerily stared at Li Jun.
Li Jun frowned and inadvertently met the gaze.
The next moment.
The dim surroundings revealed a second pair of glowing green eyes.
“More of them?” Li Jun glanced around, his heart sinking.
But that wasn’t all, a third pair of eyes soon appeared.
With the swaying of those green eyes, Simon’s figure gradually emerged from the dark gloom and walked towards Li Jun.
However, this time, there were three Simons in this Ghost Domain world.
“A supernatural power that increases one’s numbers, can this guy really do that?” Li Jun’s expression changed. He could feel that after the appearance of the three Simons, each one possessed the same supernatural power.
This meant that the strength of these three was equally strong.
Even other captains couldn’t accomplish such a feat.
Simon didn’t speak at this moment. After using some terrifying supernatural power, he also underwent some changes, losing the last trace of human characteristics, as if he had become a true vengeful ghost.
“His hands are wrong, they are the hands of a fierce ghost.”
Li Jun saw Simon’s hands were wide and yet appeared skeletal, with nails that were lengthened and blackened, mismatched with his body, and the hands were also incomplete, with several fingers missing.
But it didn’t make those hands any less terrifying. If caught by those, one would likely die instantly.
Suddenly.
The three Simons vanished once more.
Li Jun decided not to hold back anymore; “The opponent can multiply, we can’t drag this out, we must take down this dangerous guy in one strike.”
With a bite, viscous blood gathered, and nearby supernatural forces were drawn in.
The three Simons appeared around Li Jun, each with a terrifying hand reaching towards him.
Yet, in the next moment.
Two corpses, long since dead, stood in front of Li Jun.
These two were enemies previously killed by Ah Hong.
However, dead enemies were more dangerous than living ones, because the corpses had undergone ghostly resurrection, becoming real ghosts.
The appearance of the two ghosts blocked the attacks of two Simons.
The remaining Simon’s hands had already pierced through Li Jun’s body, unleashing a terrifying curse. Li Jun felt all the blood within his body disappearing, no, not the blood, but the supernatural power within his body.
That terrifying hand was now rapidly regrowing a missing finger.
“I’ve been waiting for you. You’re carrying quite a few ‘bullets’, and this time I’ll send them all off in one go.” Li Jun groaned painfully.
At this moment, the Ghost Shepherd’s supernatural power erupted.
The bullets Simon carried, made by vengeful ghosts, all became agitated.
At such a close range, Li Jun’s supernatural powers were pushed to the limit, driving the dormant ghosts.
The black wrapping binding the vengeful ghosts shattered, the supernatural aura spread, and all the trapped vengeful ghosts were released by Li Jun’s own hand. Once released, they had only one command, which was to eliminate the Simon before them.
“Does this person intend to die with me?”
In this moment, Simon’s eyes suddenly contracted, his remaining rationality made him feel fear.
He seemed to be restrained by the opponent.
Because he had prepared many ‘bullets’ for his gun, over twenty in total, and if they were all released, even he would die being attacked by more than twenty ghosts.
However, Li Jun concealed his Ghost Shepherd’s supernatural ability, never revealing it after forcing the opponent’s explosion, fearing the opponent would become cautious. He was willing to risk his life to wait for this opportunity, knowing that if the Ghost Shepherd’s information was revealed, it would be impossible to eliminate the opponent, and the opponent would likely escape, leading to both him and Ah Hong dying in vain.
He didn’t want this worst-case scenario, so he had to do this.
The viscous blood stained Li Jun’s entire body, the face painted by Ah Hong quickly dissipated.
In one eruption, he utilized supernatural power beyond his limits.
But the effect achieved was significant.
All the bullets on Simon shattered, over twenty vengeful ghosts poured out, swallowing both him and Li Jun together.
The danger targeted not only Simon but Li Jun as well.
Various vengeful ghosts emerged, with eerie screams, ghastly wails, and the stench of decaying bodies… Various supernatural phenomena appeared one after another.
No one dared approach, this place had become a playground for rampant vengeful ghosts.
Any living person trying to get close was marked by ghosts and then killed.
