We were supposed to be doing horror movie guides, but what the heck is this "mysterious resurre

Although the ghost ship had a suppressive effect on Zhang Jun's interests, preventing him from exerting his full strength on board, this suppression was not only directed at him.

The king, codenamed Captain, is also subject to the eerie suppression of the ghost ship.

Despite being under similar pressure, Zhang Jun did not feel that he was no match for his opponent.

However, when he threw the cold, black ghost spear, he found that it was forced to stop near the captain.

It was as if an invisible supernatural barrier surrounded the captain, preventing the ghost from continuing to advance.

"Isn't this level of supernatural attack enough? Sure enough, this king codenamed Captain is quite extraordinary, at least much stronger than other kings."

The scene before him was not beyond Zhang Jun's expectations.

Or rather, Zhang Jun never intended to capture the captain solely through this supernatural attack.

The shot fired at this moment was merely a test to probe the opponent's capabilities.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Jun used the supernatural power of the Ghost Heart.

He wanted to use the Ghost Heart to control the vengeful spirit inside the captain, causing it to temporarily shut down.

However, when Zhang Jun did this, a terrifying scene unfolded.

The ghost heart not only failed to affect the vengeful spirit within the captain, but it also had a reverse effect on Zhang Jun himself.

This situation has never occurred before.

"Are you kidding me? What's going on?"

Logically speaking, even if the captain's terror level is too high, the Ghost Heart should still have some effect.

For Zhang Jun, temporarily malfunctioning the vengeful spirit within another ghost tamer was not a difficult task.

However, after attempting to do so, Zhang Jun suffered a severe backlash.

This already speaks volumes.

"This king, codenamed Captain, is strange..."

The thought immediately flashed through Zhang Jun's mind.

However, it's a bit too late to realize this now.

If things continue like this without any changes, Zhang Jun will soon die under the influence of supernatural forces.

Fortunately, Zhang Junqiang withstood the suppression effect of the ghost ship and used the seventh layer of the ghost domain to restart himself.

After the Seventh Ghost Realm appeared, the supernatural influence on Zhang Jun gradually disappeared, and his physical condition returned to what it was a few dozen seconds ago.

The price of doing this on the ghost ship was that Zhang Jun would be unable to use any supernatural abilities for the next minute.

Supernatural confrontations can often be decided in an instant.

One minute is enough time for the captain to kill him countless times.

"Where exactly did things go wrong? Why... did this happen?"

Zhang Jun's expression was solemn, his mind racing with thoughts.

I originally thought this captain was just a slightly more powerful ghost tamer than an ordinary king.

But now it seems that the gap between him and ordinary ghost tamers is not small at all.

Even the owner of that terrifying manor was no match for this captain.

Zhang Jun even had a vague sense of foreboding.

Even now, the captain has not yet unleashed his full potential.

"I reckon even the King's Organization didn't know the captain was this strong... This guy has been hiding his abilities, which is very unusual."

Zhang Jun had been active in the King's Organization for many years and had gathered a lot of secret information. As far as he knew, even the King's Organization itself did not know that the captain was such a special person.

The captain's oppressive presence on Zhang Jun far exceeded that of a ghost tamer; he was like... a real ghost!
"ended."

The captain's expression remained stiff and cold, revealing no emotional fluctuation.

He triggered the medium he had left in the real world, revealing his true form.

A deathly pale, limp body; slender, thin limbs; and enormous, dark, empty eyes…

The terrifying figure stood in the confined space, turning its head to stare eerily at Zhang Jun and Zhou Deng, as if they were the prey being targeted, not the two who had approached the captain.

Before the two sides could exchange another blow, Zhang Jun's heart began to pound violently, a strong warning of impending death.

He will die here!

Only at this moment were Zhang Jun's doubts and conjectures answered.

Lu Ming had previously mentioned in private that the King's Organization, including the Exorcism Society, had been infiltrated and invaded by real vengeful ghosts.

A vengeful spirit with its own mind has invaded the Ghost Masters organization, influencing the judgments of other members through supernatural means... Beneath the calm surface lies a turbulent undercurrent.

It now appears that the vengeful spirit that infiltrated the King's organization is none other than the King codenamed Captain.

This king wasn't a demon tamer at all, but a vengeful ghost through and through!

"From this perspective, everything that seemed illogical now makes sense..."

"Why do the King's Organization members keep causing trouble? Why do they show no regard for Lu Ming's existence? Why are they so short-sighted..."

"Because those who truly guide decision-making within the King's organization are never people, but demons!"

"This organization is terminally ill and beyond saving. We must uproot these cancerous tumors as soon as possible and eradicate them completely."

Zhang Jun suddenly understood a lot.

But the moment he understood, he was overwhelmed by endless despair.

What should they do?
Ghosts cannot be killed.

Based on this fundamental principle, the decapitation plan can never be realized.

As for finding the rudder that the captain carried with him, that was even more unrealistic.

The ghost ship captain's strength far exceeded Zhang Jun and Zhou Deng's expectations; he was suspected to be a vengeful ghost with intelligence.

Faced with this monster, Zhang Jun's despair grew even stronger.

The higher one's level, the more one can understand the terror of the ghost ship captain.

···········
Just as Zhang Jun's thoughts were racing, the ghost ship captain launched the final supernatural attack.

The ghost-drawn gun was swallowed by darkness, and a cold, damp feeling simultaneously crept onto Zhang Jun and Zhou Deng's bodies.

A large, eerie pool of water suddenly appeared not far in front of the two of them.

With a gurgling sound, damp, rotting corpses rolled out of the puddle.

The stench of corpses mixed with the salty smell of seawater hit the nose.

The captain, his face contorted in decay, looked at Zhang Jun and Zhou Deng. If nothing unexpected happened, these two captains, specially chosen by Cao Yanhua to carry out the decapitation plan, were about to die here together.

But at this critical moment, Zhou Deng, who was wearing a human skin mask, suddenly moved.

As if acting on instinct, without any thought, Zhou Deng appeared before the captain, his aura chilling, like a true vengeful ghost.

He was very fast and his movements were very skillful.

In terms of methods, he is the most unscrupulous among the team leaders at headquarters.

But at this crucial moment, Zhou Deng disregarded everything and stole something from the captain.

This is a supernatural item.

More accurately, it was a damp, moldy ship's rudder.

The ship's rudder seemed to have been left in a dark corner for a long time, unused, and covered in mold.

Zhou Deng actually stole the ghost ship's rudder!
Zhang Jun's gaze sharpened, sensing a hint of disbelief.

Admittedly, at the previous team leader meeting at headquarters, the other team leaders looked down on Zhou Deng, a lowlife who only knew how to steal, to some extent. They felt that the reason he became a team leader was simply because there were too few Ghost Masters in the country who could take charge, which allowed him to get the job.

Although Zhang Jun didn't say it, he had some reservations after hearing Cao Yanhua's appointment for the decapitation plan.

In the end, he didn't say anything because of Lu Ming's sake.

"I never expected... this guy, when he gets really ruthless, he'll steal anything..."

After realizing what was happening, Zhang Jun hurriedly said to Zhou Deng, "Find a way to leave this ghost ship as soon as possible, or destroy the rudder on the spot... We can't let the captain take back the rudder, otherwise all our efforts will be in vain."

To Zhang Jun's surprise, Zhou Deng made no further move upon hearing this. He simply shook his head with a wry smile and said, "We were all wrong... The rudder is indeed the key to controlling the ghost ship, but it is not a supernatural object. The rudder is the ghost ship's captain, and the captain is the rudder. We have no way to kill a ghost."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jun stood there stunned, his body gradually growing cold.

He certainly knew what Zhou Deng's words meant.

The captain is not a ghost tamer, but a vengeful ghost.

The key to controlling the ghost ship lies with the captain himself...
This whole situation is an unsolvable deadlock from beginning to end, and it is impossible to break it.

Zhou Deng continued speaking at this moment, as if he had used up all his strength, and his words sounded like he was talking to himself: "I stole the rudder, but I also paid a heavy price. If nothing unexpected happens, I probably won't survive."

"One minute is up. After switching back to the helm, the captain fell into a brief silence. Zhang Jun, it's up to you now."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Deng's body quickly stiffened, and his skin developed a dense rash of lividity.

He staggered back two steps and finally collapsed to the ground with a thud.

At this moment, Zhou Deng, one of the team leaders from headquarters, left the scene.

···········
Zhang Jun was the only living person left on the field.

He stared intently at the expressionless, motionless captain, lost in thought.

Zhou Deng is right.

The rudder is the captain's very essence.

He paid the price with his life; after stealing the rudder, the captain immediately went into a state of paralysis.

Nobody knows how long this situation will last.

It might last thirty seconds, or it might only be a fleeting moment.

But for Zhang Jun, either situation was enough.

A rusty coffin nail appeared in Zhang Jun's hand.

No one, including the other captains at headquarters, would have imagined that this coffin nail would end up in Zhang Jun's hands.

This is the biggest trump card in this decapitation plan, and it absolutely cannot be exposed before it is officially used.

Cao Yanhua was well aware of how low the success rate of the decapitation plan was.

He's gambling.

Use this coffin nail to gamble on a slim possibility, to gamble on a bright future.

With Lu Ming absent, this was the only way they had any hope of winning.

Now, by a twist of fate, Zhou Deng unexpectedly secured the opportunity for Zhang Jun to use the coffin nails.

The ghost's gun cannot affect the captain.

But coffin nails are different.

Even the most terrifying hungry ghosts, reaching an S-level of terror, can be temporarily suppressed by the coffin nails.

···········
As expected, even if the captain was a vengeful ghost with consciousness, he couldn't control his body and make any moves at this moment.

He stood motionless, his face rotting and stiff, as if waiting for Zhang Jun to deliver his final judgment with coffin nails.

Zhang Jun's ghost domain expanded, and within its range, inside the ship's cabin, the unseen souls emitted mournful howls.

All the surrounding evil spirits retreated voluntarily, seemingly afraid of provoking Zhang Jun, this evil god.

But at that moment, a sinister light suddenly burst forth from the boundless darkness without warning.

A white candle had appeared at the far end of the driver's cab sometime during the night.

The candle was being held by someone, its green flame flickering eerily, which seemed very unusual.

With the help of this faint light, Zhang Jun could barely make out the person holding the candle.

More accurately, they are ghosts.

This thing was tall and its appearance was shrouded in gray mist, making it difficult to see clearly. It was covered by a gray robe, which was stiff, cold, and numb.

The strange thing slowly walked up behind the motionless captain.

When the two ghosts stood together, Zhang Jun realized that they both had highly decomposed faces.

No matter how tiny the detail, the two ghosts were perfectly identical, as if they were carved from the same mold.

"This is... the captain's clone?"

"No, that's not right. I can sense that the cold aura emanating from this ghost is completely different from that of the previous captain. It seems to be a completely different kind of vengeful ghost."

"···········"

Zhang Jun was completely baffled.

I don't know why things have turned out this way.

Everyone had clearly done their best.

Zhou Deng even sacrificed his life to create this opportunity, and at the crucial moment, he also took out the coffin nails that Cao Yanhua had given him...
Zhang Jun's mind was racing, but he didn't have much time left.

This newly appeared "captain" possesses a completely new pattern of killing, and is even more terrifying than the previous captain...
When the rotting face was fully revealed to Zhang Jun, the captain said in a stiff, cold tone, word by word, "You... you saw me, didn't you?" (End of Chapter)
