Weird Cards: I've Become a Ghost

now.

Jack, who was flying out in a parabolic arc, was completely stunned.

Why did you throw me out?

I didn't offend you!

And... what the heck is Pikachu?

But Jack, who had no time to think about anything, looked at the approaching and menacing demonic puppets that were like zombies and immediately closed his eyes, even though Jack himself didn't know how a doll could close its eyes.

However, this sudden turn of events did not leave the former private detective helpless. His act of closing his eyes was not a sign of giving up resistance; he was doing so to try to control his emotions and communicate with the strange power within him.

Gradually, Jack felt a special power surging from the depths of his soul, which then spread throughout his entire body.

The next second, the eyes that had been closed suddenly opened, and an unusual light flashed in those slightly cheap-looking doll-like glass eyes.

Then, his brown bear doll's body continued to swell and become more realistic, as if a magical force had brought it to "life." The fur on its body turned into thick fur, and the cute little paws became real bear paws.

His eyes gleamed with a piercing light, burning with a bloodthirsty and savage killing intent like a wild beast.

At this point, Jack's "transformation" was completely over. He had now become a real bear, over two meters tall. His massive and bulky body exuded unparalleled power and majesty, as if it contained awe-inspiring strength. When he landed from mid-air, it made a heavy, muffled sound.

After regaining his footing, Jack took a deep breath. His body was trembling slightly, and he could feel the power surging within him, like a raging torrent flowing through his body.

If Jack remembers correctly, this is his fourth "transformation".

His first transformation was completed with the help of his colleague, the apprentice. However, at that time, he was not very familiar with the strange power in his body, so he lost consciousness after the transformation, leaving only a bloodthirsty and brutal killing instinct. He even launched an attack on the apprentice without knowing the immensity of the situation, and as a result, he "wilted".

Later, with the help of his colleague, who called himself an apprentice but whose "training" was actually "research," Jack began his second and third transformations. However, it was also with the apprentice's "help" that Jack was now able to almost completely control the strange power within him, although the transformation process was not yet very "smooth."

Although Jack was speechless and even a little angry at Xiao He for throwing him out for no reason, when he sensed the aura of the demonic puppets rushing towards him not far away, he immediately understood Xiao He's "good intentions".

Although the number of the demonic sound puppets that kept gathering and rushing towards Jack looked large and frightening, in his perception, the demonic sound puppets' aura was very weak, so weak that they seemed like ants that could be crushed at will.

Moreover, Jack's "beast" instincts were telling him that he could definitely slap away a whole bunch of the Demonic Sound Puppets.

Jack thought about it for a moment and realized that this was quite normal.

After all, these so-called "magic sound puppets" are actually just ordinary people who have lost their souls and are being manipulated.

How could an ordinary person possibly defeat a bear?

Besides, even if there isn't just one "ordinary person" in front of us, Jack isn't an "ordinary" bear either!

Therefore, in Jack's view, the reason why Xiao He threw him out was to use these demonic puppets to "hone" his strange abilities.

After all, he hadn't offended the other party, and the other party's behavior had been "normal" during this period. In addition, the Night Demons forbade the Night Demons from killing each other. Therefore, under the influence of the strange power, Jack's thinking had also become different, and he immediately felt that his guess was normal.

Thinking of this, he looked at the demonic puppets that were only a few meters away from him. He subconsciously thought of a line from a movie he had seen before. Then, feeling eager to try, he let out a low and hoarse roar.

"I'm going to take on ten!"

Even though the number of these demonic sound puppets in front of them far exceeds ten.

However, if Xiao He knew what Jack was thinking when he threw him out, he probably wouldn't be able to resist applauding and praising the other's rich imagination.

In fact, Xiao He only threw Jack out on a whim.

When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but think of an animated film he had watched in his previous life, which is why he threw Jack away after saying those words.

Of course, aside from a momentary interest, Xiao He, who was already considered an "old hand," had no interest in dealing with those "small fry." Only the "culprit," Li Ming, who was holding a wooden guitar and watching this scene with a sinister look, was worth his attention. After all, the bigger the fish, the fewer the bones.

However, there was actually another very important reason why Xiao He didn't want to deal with those "small fry".

the other side.

Jack looked at the demonic puppets charging madly towards him with anticipation in his eyes. He was ready to slap them away with his two hands or tear them to pieces with his claws.

Thinking of this, a deep roar came from his throat again.

But at that moment, Jack seemed to have thought of something, and he froze on the spot.

"Wait, shouldn't these people be considered dead?"

Jack was referring to those demonic puppets.

According to the rules of the Night Demon Division, if the bodies of Alliance citizens who died in strange events are "used" by the supernatural, the Night Demon Masters can directly take action against those "corpses".

Although the Alliance cares deeply about the safety of citizens' lives and property, and is committed to protecting those citizens who are caught up in strange events, whether they are dead or alive, because in the eyes of the Alliance, for those who have died, their bodies are their last dignity, and being buried in peace is their final resting place.

However, it's impossible to make those "precious and rare" ghost hunters hesitant to deal with ghosts because of some "corpses" that have already died, thus causing the ghosts to escape.

However, if the citizens caught up in the strange events are still alive, or even if there is only a slight chance of survival, then even if those citizens who may still be "alive" are manipulated by the supernatural, the monster controllers cannot easily take action against those "alive" citizens during the process.

In Jack's opinion, some of the rules within the Night Division are unreasonable.

Especially this regulation concerning the handling of the lives and deaths of citizens caught in bizarre events.

He felt that the rule was too...what.....

In the name of "responsibility," the living are forced to pay the price for the dead.

While it is true that sometimes hundreds or thousands of people are sacrificed to save one person, it is a losing proposition to allow a bizarre escape that could endanger the lives of hundreds or thousands of people for the sake of someone whose chances of survival are extremely slim.

Huh? How did my mind wander to this?

At this point, Jack finally realized that he had misunderstood the situation.

In fact, all he was thinking about was whether the demonic puppets running towards him still had any chance of returning to normal.

If there isn't any, then he can naturally go on a killing spree without worry; but if there is...

Thinking of this, Jack quickly turned around and looked at Xiao He not far away.

He was just a "newcomer" who had only recently mastered his own strange powers, so he couldn't tell whether these people were beyond saving. Therefore, he could only turn to Xiao He, his "senior," for help.

the other side.

Xiao He, who had been keeping a close eye on Jack's situation, also noticed his action. When he saw the helplessness in Jack's eyes, he instantly understood his confusion. But the problem now was...

"I don't know either!"

Xiao He shook his head.

This is also why he doesn't want to deal with those "small fry".

Xiao He, who was also aware of the Night Demon Division's rule and felt it was unreasonable, naturally didn't want to waste time and energy figuring out whether those people still had a chance to survive.

This is too troublesome and too frustrating.

When facing these people, you can't fight them, and you can't not fight them either. It feels like punching cotton; you have the strength but can't use it.

Although many people often say that rules are rigid, but people are flexible.

As long as you insist that those people are dead, nothing will happen afterward. After all, there's an old saying: "The dead can't prove anything."

Xiao He thought the same way back then, until the Spider-Man said to him...

Thinking of this, Xiao He subconsciously looked down at the wristband communicator on his wrist.

This thing is both a communicator and a monitor.

The dead have no way to testify?

Sorry, I have plenty of evidence.

At this point, many people might ask, since Jack didn't seem to have the same type of communicator as Xiao He, does that mean he could...?

Thinking of this, Xiao He raised the communicator on his wrist, found Jack's contact information which he had just added not long ago, and then dialed. The call was quickly connected, but before Jack could ask any questions, Xiao He said first, "You can handle those little bastards. I'll deal with the guy with the guitar."

......

The scene changes.

Suddenly, Xiao He's voice echoed inside Jack's body.

When Jack joined the Nightshade, Spider-Man also prepared a communicator for him. However, considering Jack's strange powers, it was possible that the communicator would "explode" during his transformation. Later, after the apprentice modified it and performed a "minor surgery" on Jack, the communicator that belonged only to Jack is now hidden inside his doll's body and will not have any effect on him.

"But......"

At this moment, Jack wanted to ask something, but Xiao He ruthlessly interrupted him.

"I know what you want to ask, but you are now a... uh... qualified Ghost Master, and you must be able to make your own judgments in everything."

Looking at Jack's massive figure, which was over two meters tall, not far away, Xiao He initially thought that he was already an adult bear. However, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that the other party did not seem to be a real bear.

"but......"

Jack, still somewhat unwilling to give up, wanted to ask more questions, but Xiao He immediately said, "No buts, I'll go deal with that guy with the guitar right now. Maybe after we take care of him, those little rascals you're dealing with will go back to normal?"

"Oh, right, remember not to let these little rascals bother me. I need to go one-on-one with that guy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao He impatiently ended the communication, completely cutting off Jack's idea of ​​continuing to ask questions.

"this......"

Hearing this, Jack had no choice but to deal with the little karmimi, the demonic puppets that had already come up behind him, himself.

Roar!Roar!Roar!

Before Jack could turn around again, he heard a series of deep and terrifying roars in his ears, followed by an unbearable itching sensation on his back as if he were being bitten by countless mosquitoes.

At this moment, he was surrounded by numerous demonic puppets with ferocious and terrifying faces.

But no matter how these demonic puppets bit, scratched, or tore, they could not cause any harm to Jack. His massive body was like an indestructible barrier, an unbreakable iron wall, completely blocking all attacks.

However, Jack looked helplessly at the demonic puppets that surrounded him.

He really wanted to raise his paw and give them a good whack, but... he couldn't.

Until he was certain that these people could be saved, all he could do was... do nothing.

Thinking of this, Jack felt an overwhelming sense of disgust for the first time at his own claws, which gleamed with a sharp, cold light and could easily cut through steel.

If he had human hands instead of bear claws, he could break the limbs of these demonic puppets without breaking the rules, as long as they weren't dead.

After all, as mentioned earlier, rules are rigid, but people are flexible.

Just as Jack, looking utterly helpless, was completely swallowed up by the crowd and disappeared from sight, Xiao He had already quietly arrived in front of the guy with the guitar, who was none other than Li Ming.

Upon seeing Xiao He appear, Li Ming did not speak, but instead began to gently pluck the strings of his guitar.

The next second, a melodious tune drifted out, and in that instant, the surrounding air seemed to tremble because of the melody.

At that moment, Li Ming plucked the guitar string hard, and immediately a sound wave burst out from the guitar string, instantly transforming into an invisible blade that shot out through the air.

Upon seeing this, Xiao He was immediately stunned.

This familiar scene reminded him of a certain movie.

"If you replaced the guitar with a guzheng, it would look even more like a guzheng."

......
