Horror Resurrection: I Evolve Starting with the Ghost Buddha

At this moment, at the city gate.

The real world.

Zhao Linfeng clutched his chest, leaning against the city wall, staring in shock at the scene before him.

The once arrogant and domineering New Federal convoy was now reduced to wreckage and mangled remains.

The woman named Xu Lan seemed to be possessed, standing there shouting wildly.

"Don't come any closer!!"

"Die! Die!!"

The golden pistol in her hand kept spitting out flames.

And her teammates.

Everyone else, except for herself, stood motionless as if frozen in place.

They let Xu Lan's bullets pierce their skulls.

The three C-level monsters, which Xu Lan was controlling, tore their bodies to pieces.

"Team... Captain..."

The last team member was a young man in his early twenties.

He watched helplessly as Xu Lan's eerie shadow pierced his chest, his eyes filled with despair and confusion.

Until death.

He didn't understand.

Why that captain who is usually the most protective and the strongest?

It will suddenly turn into this state.

puff!

With the last team member falling.

Xu Lan was now the only one left standing alone in the room.

She was covered in blood, holding a still-smoking gun, and had a maniacal smile on her face.

"They're all dead..."

"Strange... all the strange creatures are dead..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"I won..."

Inside the main hall of the deserted temple.

Lin Chuan watched this scene with an icy gaze.

"That's about it."

"It's time to let her see the truth."

Snapped.

With a thought, Lin Chuan instantly dispelled the rules of the illusion.

The next moment, the fog in front of Xu Lan dissipated.

All the hideous and bizarre creatures that she had "suppressed" disappeared.

Instead.

The ground was littered with severed limbs and broken arms.

All she saw were familiar faces and pairs of unseeing eyes.

Li Ming, Zhang Qiang, Wang Dali...

These people were all her most trusted subordinates.

And this moment.

They all lay in pools of blood.

All the wounds on her body were caused by her.

The golden bullet that pierced Li Ming's forehead still gleamed with a blinding light.

"No……"

The gun in Xu Lan's hand clattered to the ground.

She knelt down, trembling, and cupped a pool of warm blood in her hands.

"No!!"

"How could this happen?!"

"I'm dealing with all sorts of weird things..."

"Why... why you guys?!"

The immense mental shock instantly shattered her rational defenses.

[Gained 8000 points of Despair and Fear from Xu Lan!]

[Gained 4000 points of Despair and Fear from Xu Lan!]

[Gained 5000 points of Despair and Fear from Xu Lan!]

Deep within Lin Chuan's consciousness, a panel kept popping up with notifications.

At this moment, Xu Lan gradually understood everything.

She was in the illusion from beginning to end.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

Xu Lan let out a piercing wail, grabbing her hair and slamming her head against the ground.

Then, she staggered to her feet.

She wanted to escape!

However, Lin Chuan did not give her a chance.

"Trying to escape?"

"Was it with my permission?"

As Lin Chuan's grand and indifferent voice faded away.

Followed by.

An irresistible force descended.

Xu Lan discovered that she couldn't move.

Now, she can't even commit suicide, let alone escape.

Her body grew increasingly stiff, and her eyes gradually became vacant.

In her line of sight.

The world has changed again.

The scene at the city gate vanished once more, leaving only an endless, dark void slowly appearing...

In the void.

A huge, ferocious, twisted, yet sacred black Buddha statue was looking down at her.

The Buddha statue seemed to be composed of countless suffering faces, radiating a chaotic, turbulent aura of rules that could corrupt everything.

Between the Buddha's eyebrows, a blood-red vertical eye opens and closes repeatedly, emitting a faint, eerie light.

Staring at her with that vertical eye, Xu Lan felt her soul tremble.

"No...no..."

Tears streamed down Xu Lan's face; she was terrified.

boom!

Soon, an even more intense pain descended!

That was a suffocating and torturous experience more despairing than death!

Lin Chuan used the [Peeping] rule to gradually peel away, extract, and see through the countless fragments of memories in her mind.

a long time.

Lin Chuan slowly withdrew his power of rules.

Xu Lan, on the other hand, collapsed to the ground like a lump of mud, her eyes rolled back and foaming at the mouth.

After being impacted by Lin Chuan's [Peeping] rules, coupled with repeated mental breakdowns, she is now alive but has become a walking corpse.

"I see."

Lin Chuan digested the information he had obtained from Xu Lan's mind and gained a detailed understanding of the so-called "New Federation" she had mentioned.

According to Xu Lan's memory, after the complete collapse of order, the new Federation suddenly rose up and integrated most of the Ghost Riders of Qinglong County, while establishing a doomsday base city with a population of three million!

The founder of the new federation was a mysterious demon wielder known as the "Guardian"!

That "defender of morality" was originally an ordinary person.

But by sheer chance, he got to ride an A-class monster named "Scales"!

After obtaining various information from Xu Lan's mind, Lin Chuan gazed at her one last time from a 360-degree perspective.

"Since they are no longer of any use to us."

"Then..."

"Let me send you on your way."

With a thought, Lin Chuan activated the [Life-Taking Brahma Sound], preparing to kill her and then extract the three C-rank monsters from her body.

However, just as the rules were being implemented...

A sudden change occurred.

A seemingly ordinary jade pendant on Xu Lan's chest suddenly shattered.

A blinding golden light burst forth instantly.

Within that golden light lay an extremely unique power of rules.

It actually managed to block Lin Chuan's rule-based attack.

"Um?"

Lin Chuan let out a soft "hmm".

The golden light enveloped Xu Lan's body, like an invisible barrier, protecting her firmly.

A moment later, space distorted, and a golden light flashed.

Xu Lan's figure... vanished into thin air.

Only a tattered paper figure, still burning, remained in the spot.

Clearly, this paper figure is a life-saving item imbued with strange and powerful rules!

"They ran away?"

Lin Chuan looked at the burning paper figure but didn't pay it much attention.

……

As everything settled down.

Zhao Linfeng looked at the corpses scattered all over the city gate, his eyes filled with awe.

"May the Buddha's power be great!"

He knelt down first, facing the direction of the temple where Lin Chuan was.

Behind him, Qin Yao, Zhou Kai, and all the guards knelt down in unison.

"May the Buddha's power be great!!"

This battle.

Although Xu Lan survived thanks to the protection of the strange props.

However, all thirteen elite Devourers of the New Federation were wiped out.

And he was killed by their captain himself.

"Clean up the battlefield."

"Imprison all the strange things within these corpses."

Lin Chuan's voice echoed in Zhao Linfeng's mind.

"yes!"

Zhao Linfeng excitedly accepted the order.

With these strange phenomena, the power of the Ghost Masters in the City of Rebirth will definitely be elevated to another level.

As for Xu Lan who escaped and that powerful new federation?

Zhao Linfeng was not worried.

In his view, with Lin Chuan, this "true Buddha," in charge, even if the New Federation sent people again, it would only be sending them to their deaths.

……

at the same time.

Thousands of miles away.

New Federal Headquarters.

Inside a massive underground palace, golden light shimmered.

Covered in blood and delirious, Xu Lan fell into the center of the main hall.

"Ah...ah..."

She let out a piercing, painful groan, her eyes filled with fear and madness.
