A bizarre resurrection: I, Yang Jian, am bound by a contract with the school beauty!

Someone lowered their head, pressing their fingers firmly on the table.

Some people closed their eyes, their faces showing suppressed pain.

Some people opened their mouths as if they wanted to say something, but in the end they didn't say anything.

After a long pause, a middle-aged man said in a low voice, "Perhaps we shouldn't have let you go to the United States."

Upon hearing this, many people's expressions changed.

That's not blaming Qin Taotao.

It's more of a regret.

The "ghost drawing" incident originated in the United States.

Sending Kyushu's two most prized demon tamers to provide support was an extremely risky decision from the start.

If successful, Kyushu will gain experience and also be able to stop the Ghost Painting from expanding further.

But now, Li Yao has fallen into a trap.

The ghost drawing isn't over yet.

The operation appears to have failed.

The middle-aged man's voice was even lower: "If we had stayed in Kyushu, at least things wouldn't have turned out this way."

Qin Taotao raised her head.

She looked at the screen and interrupted directly, "No."

Everyone looked at her.

Qin Taotao's face was very pale, but her eyes remained unwavering.

"This decision was correct."

"Ghostly drawings are not just a matter for the United States."

"The bizarre resurgence is not a disaster unique to any one country."

"If the ghost paintings continue to spread, they will eventually surpass Calgary, surpass the United States, and eventually affect the whole world."

"By then, Kyushu won't be able to escape either."

She paused, then added, "We're just facing it ahead of time."

Inside the command center, all was quiet.

Qin Taotao continued, "I witnessed the changes in the Root Painting with my own eyes."

"After the golden candlestick was taken away, the origin world of the ghost painting began to merge with the outside world."

"The city of Calgary in the painting is overlapping with reality."

"This shows that ghost paintings are no longer simply supernatural covers."

"It is coming."

Upon hearing those two words, many people's expressions turned even more grim.

Come.

This is not the spread of ordinary paranormal events; it means that the Root World is pressing into reality.

Once fully completed.

The real-life city of Calgary may become an integral part of the ghost story.

Even more terrifying is,

No one knows whether it will continue to expand outwards.

An intelligence officer from Kyushu immediately retrieved the satellite images.

In the picture,

The gray-white area surrounding Calgary is slowly expanding.

The expansion is not happening quickly.

But it didn't stop.

Furthermore, within the gray-white area, a large amount of real-world signal is lost.

The images transmitted back by the detection equipment were intermittent.

Sometimes it's just a normal street.

The next second it turned into an old wooden building.

The next second,

A black river appeared in the scene, with white shadows like dead people floating on it.

"Qin Taotao's judgment was correct; the ghost paintings are altering reality."

Inside the command center, an elderly man asked in a deep voice, "Qin Taotao, what do you plan to do now?"

Qin Taotao looked at the golden candlestick on the table.

"I want to stay here."

"The ghost paintings are still spreading, and I must observe their changes."

"More importantly, I need to figure out the purpose of the golden candlesticks."

The old man frowned: "You're in very poor condition right now."

Qin Taotao did not deny it.

She died once in the ghost painting.

The Ghost Post Office severed her existence for her, forcibly dragging her back to reality.

This cost did not go unnoticed.

She could feel a cold, empty feeling deep inside her body.

It was as if a letter was slowly taking shape inside her body.

That letter was written to herself.

The recipient was Qin Taotao.

The delivery point is death.

But she can't leave, at least not now.

Qin Taotao whispered, "I can't leave."

"Li Yao wanted me to bring this thing out."

"If I leave now, her death will have been in vain."

After those words were spoken, the command center fell silent once more.

After a long silence, the old man slowly said, "Kyushu will not order you to evacuate."

"But you must promise me one thing."

"If the ghost painting expands out of control, your priority is to survive."

Qin Taotao looked at him.

The old man said solemnly, "As long as you are alive, Kyushu can still make a judgment on the spot."

"Li Yao has already had an accident, we can't lose you too."

Qin Taotao did not answer immediately.

She looked down at the golden candlestick.

The road-like patterns on the bottom of the candlestick appeared even clearer in the dim light.

It's like a shrunken city, like the entrance to some eerie world.

After a long while, she nodded gently.

"I see."

After the call ended, Qin Taotao did not rest.

She looked at the two props on the table: a golden candlestick and a white candle that had been lit twice.

Their first wish changed their lives.

The second wish elicited a response from Yang Jian, which also allowed them to win the game.

But behind every wish lies a deeper trap; this candle is never a true lifesaver.

It's more like picking opportunities.

Waiting for the third burn.

Qin Taotao stared at it, her gaze growing colder and colder.

These two supernatural items must be sealed away; they are far too dangerous.

Thinking of this,

Li Yao then prepared to use the power of the Ghost Post Office to take it in.

But at that very moment...

The golden candlestick on the table suddenly vibrated slightly.

thump.

The sound was very soft.

But it made everyone's hearts sink.

Qin Taotao suddenly lowered her head.

A wisp of grayish-white light seemed to flash within the patterns on the bottom of the golden candlestick.

The light was very faint.

It was like a street that lit up for a moment.

Qin Taotao narrowed her eyes.

She suddenly had a strange feeling that the golden candlestick was not something she had taken out of the ghost painting, but rather that the ghost painting had used her to bring a key item into reality.

The thought sent a chill down her spine.

She didn't even know whether she was stopping the ghost painting or helping it complete some step.

But now there is no way out.

The golden candlestick was already in her hands, and the ghost painting had begun to descend; she had no choice but to continue investigating.

at the same time.

Ghost painting world.

In the heart of the old town, the cracked sky is healing.

The rift caused by the resurrection of the ghost is like a wound that has been forcibly torn open, slowly closing up.

The woman in red stood still.

Her red veil was tattered, and her rotting face was expressionless.

But madness still lingered in those eyes.

She wanted to leave the old town.

They wanted to chase after those who took the golden candlesticks.

But she can't.

Because the ghost is still there when filming.

The truly resurrected S-class vengeful ghost had no consciousness and no purpose.

It just keeps attacking everything around it.

It smashed the street.

Shoot the broken wooden building.

Smash the Black River.

Every time a supernatural event occurs, a section of the ghost painting's world collapses.

The ghostly painting of the woman in red was suppressing it, while the ghostly painting was tearing the painting apart. The two forces collided, causing the descending ghostly painting to pause briefly.

But this stagnation won't last long.

The root cause is the ghost drawing.

Even the fiercest ghost in a painting is just a vengeful spirit trapped in a picture.

It will be swallowed up sooner or later.

Deeper into the old city.

A gray-white silhouette floats silently.

The silhouette looked like a cut-out human-shaped piece of paper.

There is no flesh and blood.

It has no body.

It has no weight.

But at that moment, it suddenly opened its eyes.
