Mysterious Resurrection: Starting with Controlling Sadako

Chapter 350 The Crashed Ghost Messenger

Wang Liang did not warn Wang Xiaoming that the ghost coffin might have problems and asked him to seal it in advance. Instead, he prepared to quietly wait for the ghost messengers to erupt.

Because he needs the resurrected ghost messengers to accomplish some of his goals.

If all goes well, he can legitimately reclaim the Ghost Coffin and Ghost Messengers from headquarters without paying any price, and not just the Ghost Messengers.

Although there are risks involved, he will face the ghost messengers who possess an unsolvable suppression ability.

But compared to the potential gains in the future, taking a risk is worthwhile.

Wang Liang then remembered Zhou Kun, who had arrived in Dajing City a few days earlier than him, and asked:

"How is Zhou Kun? Have you devised a plan for him to control the second ghost?"

Wang Xiaoming finally remembered to take a sip of coffee: "That's about it. After screening, I've come up with three plans, but I haven't let Zhou Kun test them yet, because in my opinion, the most suitable ghost for him is in your hands."

"In my hands, what do you mean?" Wang Liang frowned slightly.

Wang Xiaoming looked up calmly into Wang Liang's eyes: "My brother's ghost is in your hands, isn't it? It would be perfect for Zhou Kun if you were willing to take it out."

Hearing Wang Xiaoming mention Wang Xiaoqiang, whom he and Yang Jian killed, so casually, even though Wang Liang knew Wang Xiaoming's character, he felt a chill run down his spine for no apparent reason.

"Unfortunately, that skeleton ghost has already been given to one of my ghost tamers."

“Really?” Wang Xiaoming nodded, not sure if he believed it or not. “There’s another ghost, the former head of Dachang City, Feng Quan’s second ghost. It’s a strange kind of grave soil, which, according to my deduction, is also quite suitable for balancing Zhou Kun’s ghost.”

Wang Liang sighed: "You really are always trying to fleece me. Is headquarters this stingy even with its own superiors?"

Wang Xiaoming's expression remained unchanged as he calmly said, "I was just stating my judgment. The ghosts that are suitable for Zhou Kun can naturally be produced by headquarters as well, but they would be much riskier to control and wouldn't have the same success rate as the two I just mentioned."

Since you care so much about Zhou Kun, taking out Feng Quan's grave soil to increase his success rate in controlling the second ghost wouldn't be difficult for you, unless you also give Feng Quan's ghost to your other ghost controllers.

"Tell me your plan first," Wang Liang said.

Wang Xiaoming said, "Zhou Kun's ghost code name, Ghost Slap, originates from a vengeful ghost's hand, but it gradually erodes the arm and even the entire body. To achieve balance, another supernatural force is needed to limit Ghost Slap's erosion of the body."

This is also why I recommended my brother's ghost. The ghost skeleton is undoubtedly the safest choice. It can fight against the ghost's erosion, protect Zhou Kun's consciousness and body, and ultimately delay the revival of the vengeful ghost, with a success rate of over 90%.

The second ghost given to Feng Quan was a strange grave soil that could merge into his body. If left unchecked, it would gradually erode his body's organs and flesh from the inside out, turning them into grave soil. When a ghost attacks a person and erodes their body from the outside in, the two vengeful ghosts will fight and clash over the body. This is not as safe as a ghost skeleton, but it is still the same method.

With the safety measures I have in place in my lab for controlling vengeful spirits, I estimate the final success rate to be over 60%, which is already quite high compared to previous success rates for controlling a second spirit.

Controlling the other vengeful spirits at headquarters would only lower the success rate, and balancing the conflicts would be even riskier.

"Really? What safety measures do you have when you control vengeful spirits in your lab?" Wang Liang asked.

Wang Xiaoming shook his head: "I can't tell you that, it's a headquarters secret. So, do you still have Feng Quan's grave soil? If possible, I'll help Zhou Kun manage it as soon as possible, since his condition isn't good."

A pool of ghostly blood gushed out from beneath Wang Liang's feet, and a bloody hand reached out, clutching a golden body bag.

Although the plan was known, since Wang Xiaoming's lab helped increase the success rate of controlling vengeful spirits, it was better to leave the task of helping Zhou Kun control the spirit to Wang Xiaoming. After all, he was only skilled at using the Ghost Domain to gradually help ordinary people become ghost controllers, or to copy memories as an insurance policy for resurrection.

However, he may not be as successful as Wang Xiaoming in helping Zhou Kun control the second ghost.

Wang Liang took the body bag from the bloodied hand and casually tossed it onto the carpet in the room.

"You can have the vengeful spirit, but since headquarters took it from me to help your leader control it, shouldn't you give me some compensation?"

Wang Xiaoming said, "There's no need to haggle. I don't have the energy to talk about these things right now. Besides, after you became the captain, you were planning to bring Zhou Kun into your team, right? That would be helping you."

"A ghost candle. Feng Quan's ghosts aren't worth this price. This is my investment in you, and I hope it can play a greater role in your hands."

"Red?" Wang Liang asked in surprise.

“Red.” Wang Xiaoming nodded.

There was a light knock on the door, and Li Jun walked in carrying two large gold briefcases.

"Professor Wang, I've brought the items."

After Li Jun entered, his gaze swept over Wang Liang, and then he noticed the extra gold body bag on the ground. He frowned and glared at Wang Liang with some annoyance.

"Put it here. The body bag on the ground contains soil from Feng Quan's grave. That's for Zhou Kun's second ghost. We'll take it to my lab later. Also, get a red ghost candle for Wang Liang. Deduct it from my allowance."

Li Jun hesitated for a moment, then simply nodded silently. After putting down the two boxes, he picked up the gold body bag from the ground and walked out.

"Two boxes, and you've created two crashing devices?"

Wang Liang raised an eyebrow, got up from the sofa, went to a box, twisted the side buckle, and opened the box.

Inside the box, the hull of a middle-aged man was crammed in, dressed as a farmer, with rough skin and several bluish-purple livid spots on his skin, exuding a chilling aura.

But even after the box was opened, it remained stuffed inside the gold box, untouched.

"Can't you go back and check?" Wang Xiaoming frowned and said, then nodded. "I did do two. As long as you grasp the rules and methods, it's not difficult to replicate these experimental results."

"We have to inspect the goods first."

As he spoke casually, Wang Liang reached into the box and touched the male corpse's body. The ghostly presence of the Slit-Mouthed Woman invaded this dead body.

"Hmm?" Wang Liang frowned.

Wang Xiaoming took a leisurely sip of his coffee on the sofa behind him, put it down, and said:
"If you're thinking of stealing the ghost messenger's supernatural abilities by controlling this malfunctioning vessel, you're probably going to be disappointed. I've already tried that kind of experiment before."

After all, if they could be controlled by humans, it would mean that it would be possible to artificially mass-produce ghost controllers who could control vengeful spirits, and all of them would have stolen some of the supernatural abilities of the ghost messengers. The results of such experiments would be no less impressive than the transformation of human and ghost bodies.
