Chapter 10 Lu Ming's Choice (Please continue reading)
Without much hesitation, Lu Ming rejected Liu Xiaoyu's suggestion.

"I have no intention of joining headquarters, nor am I obligated to report to you in any way."

Liu Xiaoyu on the other end of the phone was stunned, clearly not expecting Lu Ming to answer like that.

According to Yang Jian, Lu Ming was just an ordinary person not long ago.

Generally speaking, ordinary people who become Ghost Tamers don't immediately change their mindset. They still hold a certain degree of awe for official forces like the Ghost Tamer Headquarters.

But why does Lu Ming's tone sound so impolite?
"You should really think this over carefully, don't act impulsively. After joining headquarters, you'll not only receive supernatural items from us, but also a certain amount of gold... You should know the value of gold in this day and age. Moreover, the annual salary from headquarters is enough for you and your family to live comfortably for the rest of your lives."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming shook his head dismissively.

If he really doesn't understand anything, then he might indeed be attracted by Liu Xiaoyu's conditions.

But after realizing the true nature of these people, Lu Ming only wanted to keep his distance.

Strategic resources like ghost candles are extremely difficult to obtain, unless one is a ghost tamer like Yang Jian who has solved S-level paranormal events, or a top talent like Wang Xiaoming.

As for money...

Making money is indeed not easy for ordinary people.

But for a ghost tamer, there are countless ways to earn hundreds of millions.

Just consider the ghost-taming bodyguards hired by the super-rich; their monthly salaries are an unimaginable astronomical figure.

It's no exaggeration to say that for those who control ghosts, money is just a number.

Most importantly, joining the Ghost Tamer Headquarters means that Lu Ming's actions will be restricted.

He is also responsible for handling any paranormal events that occur in the area he is in charge of.

This means that Lu Ming will be constantly drawn into different supernatural events.

Lu Ming thought to himself, "Ghost tamers are inherently short-lived; using supernatural abilities will only accelerate the resurgence of the vengeful spirit within them..."

"I'd have to be crazy to agree to let me join headquarters as a manager."

Just as Lu Ming said before, he has only ever had one goal.

It's very simple and pure.

That is to survive in this hopeless world.

Survival is the only goal.

Besides, ending the supernatural era is neither the mission of the Main God Space nor Lu Ming's mission.

It's not something he should be considering right now.

Lu Ming knew these things in his own heart; there was no need to explain them to others.

Therefore, in response to Liu Xiaoyu's request to "think about it more carefully," Lu Ming simply hung up the phone.

J City, the Asian branch of the Ghost Riders headquarters.

Inside the liaison room.

With a "beep," the call was disconnected.

Liu Xiaoyu was somewhat annoyed and very frustrated; she hadn't expected this outcome.

Zhao Jianguo asked, "So, what did Lu Ming say?"

"Lu Ming said he had no intention of joining headquarters, and his attitude was very firm. I originally wanted to persuade him, but he hung up the phone directly... These ghost tamers, their tempers are really bigger than the last."

After hearing Liu Xiaoyu's account, Zhao Jianguo frowned.

It's normal for capable people to have a temper.

Not to mention that ghost tamers, under the influence of the supernatural, would naturally become even more ruthless and violent. What he truly cared about was Lu Ming, this destabilizing factor.

"After experiencing the gray fog incident in Dachang City, Yang Jian has already joined the ranks of top ghost tamers, but he still needed Lu Ming's help to survive the ghost bus incident... It seems that the vengeful ghost controlled by Lu Ming is quite extraordinary..."

With this in mind, Zhao Jianguo instructed Liu Xiaoyu: "For the next period of time, focus on monitoring Lu Ming's movements. People who used to be very well-behaved have started to indulge themselves and disrupt public order after obtaining supernatural abilities. This has happened before."

"Don't let him cause any trouble."

After arranging Liu Xiaoyu's work, Zhao Jianguo sighed and left the liaison room with his mind on his own.

···········
Dachang City.

In a very ordinary residential community.

This is an ordinary two-bedroom apartment.

At this moment, the sky outside was somewhat gloomy, and the lights inside the house were off, making it pitch black and impossible to see anything.

From the outside, one might think that this family had gone out and were not at home.

In fact, Lu Ming was in such a dark environment, sitting on the sofa in the living room.

Lu Ming put down the satellite phone, glanced at the recently formed lividity on his wrist, and his face darkened.

The first phase of the mission in the God's Space is to make him survive here for seven days.

After getting off the bus, the ghostly presence of the mourning clothes and the ghostly presence of the mummified bride were suppressed to some extent.

A day has passed.

Staying here for the remaining six days should most likely not be a problem.

But this is only the ideal situation.

No one can say for sure whether some unexpected situations will arise during this period, requiring Lu Ming to use supernatural powers.

Moreover, even if he completes the first phase of the mission, Lu Ming will still have to return to the mysterious resurrection world in the end.

The problem of the resurgence of vengeful spirits has been looming large, waiting for him to resolve it.

"Like the two ends of a scale, the mourning clothes of a wailing ghost and the wedding dress of a mummified bride cannot form a perfect balance."

"Unless... I can control the wailing face of a mourner."

The idea flashed through Lu Ming's mind, and he felt it was quite feasible.

Wearing mourning clothes and a crying face at the same time is like adding a small weight to the slightly tilted side of a scale, which makes the balance between the two much more stable.

At that time, Lu Ming will no longer need to be as timid and hesitant as he is now, afraid to use supernatural abilities.

Having made up his mind, Lu Ming stood up from the sofa and, using the dim light, tidied himself up in front of the full-length mirror.

After being corrupted by the supernatural, his skin turned a sickly pale white and was covered with strange livid spots.

Over his gray-black casual shirt, he wore a white mourning garment that reeked of the stench of a corpse.

Going out like that would definitely scare passersby.

Moreover, being too conspicuous means that everything you do will be watched by others.

So Lu Ming put on another coat to cover his white mourning clothes.

After he's dressed up, people might think Lu Ming's clothes are a bit strange, but they would never think that "this guy is a dead man".

However, this method can only temporarily keep Lu Ming in the appearance of an ordinary person. If the supernatural forces in his body lose control, his body will rot, stink, and ooze foul-smelling pus at the fastest speed.

“A crying face is different from mourning clothes. To pull off a crying face, you need to do some preparation.”
