Chapter 399 The human skin paper tore.
"let me out!"
"I want to go out!"
A group of survivors with their families blocked the main road of Dachang City, where they were jammed with a group of military vehicles that had entered.
No matter how the person in charge explained, the survivors were completely hysterical and unwilling to stay in the city for even a second longer.
Such scenes occurred on several main roads, with many survivors abandoning their vehicles and speeding off on electric scooters.
The disaster relief efforts in Dachang City were in complete disarray, with many survivors desperately trying to leave the city.
After all, from the survivors' perspective, this city has already claimed millions of lives, and no one knows if they will be so lucky to survive again.
Moreover, who knows if those terrifying ghosts will reappear? They just want to get away from this city as soon as possible!
People don't realize in the midst of the panic that cities that have experienced major paranormal events are actually the safest after the storm has passed.
Because it wasn't just humans who were affected by this disaster; some vengeful ghosts, less terrifying than the starving ghosts, were also devoured by it.
Just like a grassland invaded by a forest fire, it burns away all kinds of beneficial and harmful insects.
In a way, this also resolved all the other paranormal events within Dachang City in one fell swoop.
However, even if all these events were to erupt, the level of harm would probably not reach the terrifying level of the starving ghost.
Zhuang Boshi returned to the safe house, Zheng Zha stood beside him holding the Dragon Slayer Blade, and Saito held up his magic wand that emitted a green light.
Na'er's barrier protected the others.
It had a tense atmosphere, like the Avengers gathering all six Infinity Stones.
"Don't be nervous." Zhuang Boshi couldn't help but chuckle. "This thing doesn't have the ability to kill on its own."
"Better safe than sorry," Zheng Zha said solemnly.
This time, he witnessed true time reversal, and an extremely absurd regional time reversal, which gave him a new understanding of these vengeful ghosts.
In the God Realm, time-related skills are at least double A-level, and time reversal skills like this are S-level skills.
But here, it's just the power of a demon!
Zhuang Boshi slowly opened the golden box and picked up the human skin paper that had been pierced through the mysterious resurrection.
The soft, dark yellow leather had a touch of coldness to it, as if it had been taken out of an icebox, exuding an eerie and ominous aura.
"My name is Yang Jian. By the time you see this, I will already be dead."
As the parchment was unfolded, the original writing on it quickly disappeared, and new writing began to gradually emerge.
This is an extremely eerie scene.
It was as if an unseen person was writing stroke by stroke on a blank piece of leather paper, only the handwriting was not neat, but crooked and distorted, like scribbles.
"My name is Zhuang Boshi, when you see this sentence."
"I have already..."
I have
The opening remarks of the paper do not differ from one another; the first sentence is a self-introduction, and unsurprisingly, the paper reads out the person's name.
However, the parchment seemed to get stuck soon, and a series of "I am" kept looping and quickly covered the entire parchment.
"What do you mean? It doesn't work for me. Are you trying to mess with my mind?" Zhuang Boshi's gaze turned cold.
"Is this a system crash, or is it experiencing a writer's block?" Zheng Zha asked, raising his eyebrows.
However, Zhuang Boshi was really afraid that a single sentence on the paper would kill him off.
After all, paper do not lie; they just hide key information and create traps for people.
If someone dies, it must be due to a supernatural event.
If someone dies of natural causes or other means, the phrase "I am dead" will not be written.
So although Wang Xiaoming died of cancer, the note on his human skin read, "My experiment failed."
Of course, it's also possible that the human skin paper simply reflects what normal people fear most. Wang Xiaoming wasn't afraid of death but was afraid of the experiment failing, while Yang Jian, Fang Jing, and other normal people were most afraid of death, so they wrote "I am already dead."
However, it is clear that the human skin paper was unable to predict the main god space.
"Is this the first sentence on the paper?" Zhao Yingkong asked, leaning closer and pointing at the paper.
Zhuang Boshi smiled slightly: "Everyone who picks up the human skin paper and dies from a supernatural attack will basically be told by the human skin paper that they are dead. It has a certain precognitive ability."
"Don't worry too much about the beginning. After all, the parchment never lies, it just hides some key information."
“It’s like when I hold it, it can’t say that I’m dead.” Zhuang Boshi picked it up and shook it.
Sure enough, it just kept showing a series of "I have" messages, as if the computer had crashed.
Zhuang Boshi pressed the coffin nails he had pulled from the starving ghost onto the human skin paper, and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter who the vengeful ghost or human is hiding behind the human skin paper."
"Mark my words."
"I'm only going to say it once."
"Don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!"
His tone instantly turned icy.
"You should know that I am more dangerous than Yang Jian, and I know the real way to deal with you."
"And also has the means to actually kill you."
This was not just a simple verbal threat. Having read the original work, he did know how to deal with the paper dolls, and there was more than one way.
Of course, he could also send a paper effigy to its death with a single magic cannon shot.
"Tell me the truth." Zhuang Boshi gently ran the coffin nail across the human skin paper, causing the paper to tremble slightly.
It seems like they're scared.
Next.
Whether it was due to Bosch's threat or some other reason, all the writing on the human skin paper disappeared.
After about ten seconds, writing reappeared.
"My name is Zhuang Boshi. By the time you see this sentence, I will no longer be in this world."
Holy crap, you're serious?!
Zhuang Boshi's eyes widened suddenly, and he roared, "How dare you!"
I was just bragging to my teammates, but I didn't expect my boast to be exposed so quickly!
You really can't believe a word about vengeful ghosts!
Zhuang Boshi's brow and eyes suddenly shone brightly.
How dare you curse yourself to die? Then I'll take you down first!
But the next moment.
The script on the parchment began to change, transforming into a different script.
A font that should not exist in this world.
The writings of cultivators.
"I am already dead."
Clearly, this "I" is no longer Bosch Sho.
Zhuang Boshi's divine light did not disappear, but his apprehension deepened.
Even Zheng Zha activated the Hidden Dragon Transformation, ready to split it in two at any moment.
"Messenger of God, if you see this text..."
"That explains it."
"I failed."
"Fuck!!" Zhang Jie couldn't help but swear.
A string of characters slowly emerged, as if someone was using their last bit of strength to write these words.
But no one was sitting inside the safe house; everyone stood up as if facing a formidable enemy.
Their identities were exposed for the second time, and this time by a mere veil of human skin in this world.
The deduction notification from the main god rang in everyone's ears, clearly indicating that this was neither an illusion nor a deception.
This piece of paper tells us where they came from!
The text about cultivation continued to slowly emerge on the human skin paper.
Compared to the original text, which looked like a twisted ghost, this is a significant improvement.
The text this time seems to have been written by a completely different person.
No, it's not necessarily a person.
But the following text was even more depressing.
"I have been corrupted."
"It has been revived inside me."
"I can't do anything."
"Reincarnation, corpse dissolution, rebirth."
“I’ve tried everything.” “In the end, the only thing I can do is divide myself into countless pieces to slow down its erosion.”
"But it revived on my corpse, this monster, which combined my immortal runes with its malice."
"It's a ghost!"
“Countless ghosts were born from my body.”
“I want to destroy them, but those vengeful spirits have all merged with my immortal runes and the essence of a golden immortal, so even I cannot completely kill them.”
"It rapidly absorbs the essence of the world through vengeful spirits, and continues to grow stronger."
"I have a premonition that it will fully hatch in just three thousand years and destroy the entire universe."
"In order to delay its recovery, I had to drain all the energy from this barren universe, and at first it did fall into weakness and even slumber."
"But unfortunately, it found another food."
"The human soul."
"Its essence has fallen into slumber, but vengeful spirits roam the world, hunting human souls to compensate for its essence."
"I can only use my last bit of strength to shatter the human soul, leaving it incomplete."
"Reduce its absorption efficiency."
"To this end, I set three rules in the rune baseline architecture."
"There is only one substance in the world, gold, that can restrain evil spirits."
“The resurgence of vengeful ghosts has a cycle of fifty to one hundred years.”
"During the period when the vengeful spirit is dormant, humans will gradually forget about it."
"In the end, I could only put my true spirit to sleep and hide this message deep within many runes."
"If any reincarnators see this text, please enter the depths of the Ruins of this world and awaken a remnant of my true spirit."
"I will perish with it."
"But please be very careful!"
"Its messengers travel through time and history, attempting to revive and awaken it. We must stop it!"
"We must not let it awaken, for then it will completely absorb everything about me and become the ultimate serpent that destroys the world."
"I am already dead."
"Don't come to save me."
"Don't come to save me."
"Find Yang Jian!"
"Find Yang Jian!"
"kill--"
Before the last sentence could be finished, all the words on the paper vanished instantly.
Then, complete silence fell.
Everyone held their breath; the room was very quiet.
Zhuang Boshi wrote a few more words, but the paper seemed to have no reaction. Zhuang Boshi then applied a little more force.
The paper ripped in two with a "rip" sound, without any reaction.
As everyone knows, ghosts are immortal.
but now.
The paper doll seems to have died.
"broken."
With a solemn expression, Zhuang Boshi collected the human skin paper, which had been cut in two, and put it back into the golden box.
Let alone whether he can explain to Yang Jian in five months, right now this vengeful ghost with consciousness seems to have been replaced by something and left him a message.
And then he died because he violated some taboo.
What was the last sentence?
Find Yang Jian and kill him?
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment and remained silent for a moment.
This passage contains an enormous amount of information.
"It seems we've unintentionally triggered something incredible," Cheng Xiao said with a bitter face.
Just then, the cold and solemn voice of the Supreme God echoed in the minds of all the members of the Zhongzhou team.
[Side Quest Triggered: Expel or Seal the Source of the Eerie Aura. All members will receive 2 B-rank side quests and 10,000 reward points.]
"Everyone is at the double B level." Zheng Zha's eyes narrowed slightly. In the previous world, the side quest where everyone was at the A level would have resulted in total annihilation without Chu Xuan's self-sacrifice.
This time, the Zhongzhou team doesn't have Chu Xuan as effective as before!
"This is troublesome, quite troublesome." Zhuang Boshi is now really afraid of this kind of mission that rewards everyone, as it's truly difficult to wipe out the entire team.
"This is a big problem."
Zhuang Boshi looked somewhat worried.
"This mission is indeed quite difficult."
He first looked at Chu Xuan, who was flipping through the book upside down; the cover was a comic book titled "True Lies."
He then turned his gaze to the group of people who were deep in thought with furrowed brows.
"Do you have any ideas?"
"Doctor, how powerful do you think that 'it' mentioned on the human skin paper is?" Zheng Zha asked cautiously.
"In the previous world, everyone was involved in an A-level side quest. We faced a chaotic evil god at the saint level. Although there was a veil between us, they were able to project some of their power into us to stop us."
Zhuang Boshi said solemnly.
"Now we're in a side story where everyone is at level B, but our strength hasn't improved significantly, which means that 'it' has at least the strength of a saint."
"Moreover, according to my estimation, this Yan who left his name created the Immortal Rune, which means he is at least at the level of a Golden Immortal or a high-level Saint."
"S--"
Everyone gasped.
Thanks to Zhuang Boshi's explanation, people are no longer completely clueless about the classification of saints.
Saints are divided into primary saints, advanced saints, innate saints, and even higher emperors.
The initial sage deals with rules, while the high sage controls the origin. The innate is the origin, and can control more than three universes.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Zheng Zha, who just ascended to sainthood in the Primordial Era, slaughtered high-level saints like chickens. That was Zheng Zha, the reincarnation of Gu. Could anyone else have done that?
Ilúvatar, a high-ranking saint who was half-crippled, not only frightened the four Chaos Gods into not daring to act rashly, but could also perform a great resurrection spell in his own world.
"Even a high-level saint with the title of Golden Immortal has been tricked so badly." Cheng Xiao sighed deeply, "What exactly is that 'it'?!"
"At least stronger than a high-level saint, the main god really thinks highly of us." Zhan Lan said with a worried expression.
"It's probably not that bad. Its condition is likely not very good. We shouldn't be facing a fully-fledged high-level saint head-on." Zhuang Boshi also looked a bit worried.
While everyone was engrossed in the wealth of information in that text and the divine prompts, no one noticed that another piece of text had appeared crookedly on the two halves of the parchment in the golden box.
"Quick, quick!"
"Don't believe him!"
"He controlled me; he is an extraterrestrial evil god."
"I cannot release him; he is not my true spirit!"
"Don't let me become the destroyer of the world."
"Isolate him! Isolate him completely!"
"He wants to eat all humans!"
"Find Yang Jian!"
"He's the key to everything!"
This text is both hastily written and bloody, as if it were written with someone's heart's blood.
But soon, the text was mercilessly erased, leaving only two lines of text.
It appears and disappears intermittently, as if making a final struggle.
"Do not--!"
"You're awake?"
"You're awake!"
Subsequently, the lettering completely disappeared.
