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

time.

It seemed as if it was stretched out infinitely at this moment.

The withered, livid ghostly hand magnified again and again in Qin Taotao's pupils.

The scent of death.

The cold blade was already pressed against her skin.

She could even feel it.

The strands of hair on her forehead were gently ruffled by the eerie wind stirred up by that hand.

It’s over.

This was her last thought.

then.

She resigned herself to her fate and slowly closed her eyes.

Waiting for that fatal blow that could shatter the skull or instantly snatch the soul.

Kyushu Command Center.

Countless people instinctively turned their heads away, unable to bear watching that bloody and cruel scene any longer.

In Li Yao's eyes.

The last glimmer of light was completely extinguished.

world.

At that moment, it was as if the mute button had been pressed.

however.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

The expected excruciating pain did not come.

That chilling cold, enough to tear the soul apart, did not descend.

A cold, stiff sensation, like touching centuries-old ice, came from my forehead.

That's it.

Qin Taotao suddenly opened her eyes!

She's still alive!

She's still alive!

The terrifying ghost hand remained still, resting quietly on her forehead, without making any further moves!

What happened?

What exactly is going on?

Qin Taotao's mind went completely blank and blank.

And this scene.

It was also clearly presented to everyone in the world through the live broadcast!

For an instant.

The whole world fell into a deathly silence!

Followed by.

After a brief silence, the live streams from countries like Japan and the United States exploded with excitement!

The champagne and cheers that were prepared to celebrate the death of the Kyushu athlete were abruptly stuck in their throats, making their expressions incredibly comical and bewildered!

Bullet comments.

After a brief pause, it erupted like a geyser, bursting forth wildly!

"??????"

"What's going on? Am I seeing things? Why is she still alive?"

"Baka! This is impossible!"

"How could someone touched by an S-rank vengeful ghost possibly survive! This is absolutely against the rules!"

"My God!"

"Could it be a system bug?"

"Or is it that this vengeful ghost's killing patterns are different from what we thought?"

"wrong!"

"Look, that ghost's hand is still on her head!"

"It didn't go back!"

"This is definitely not the end!"

"I see!"

"That ghost is too clever!"

"It doesn't intend to kill her outright; it wants to torture her in a more cruel way! That must be it!"

"That's right!"

"Just like a cat that has caught a mouse, it always wants to play with it first!"

"The hope that the people of Kyushu have just ignited is about to be extinguished once again!"

"Haha, I'm already looking forward to it!"

"But...but something just doesn't feel right."

"Does an S-class vengeful ghost need to toy with an ordinary person like this?"

"Who cares!"

"As long as she dies in the end, that's enough! The fate of Kyushu must end!"

Countless speculations and discussions flooded the screens of these live streams.

They couldn't understand what was happening before their eyes.

In their inherent understanding.

Being approached and touched by a vengeful ghost of this level is tantamount to a death sentence!

But now.

Qin Taotao, however, broke this ironclad rule!

This left them not only bewildered but also with a sense of inexplicable unease.

On the other side...

Kyushu Command Center.

Everyone was stunned.

Those who had closed their eyes, unable to bear watching any longer, suddenly turned around at their companions' exclamations and stared intently at the screen!

In the video, Qin Tao is still alive!

She's really still alive!

"Not...not dead?"

The voice of a staff member was trembling with uncontrollable joy.

"She's alive! Tao Tao is alive!"

"That's wonderful! That's wonderful! Heaven has eyes!!"

The extremely oppressive atmosphere was instantly ignited!

Countless people wept with joy and embraced each other in excitement!

The immense joy of surviving the disaster filled every corner of the command center!

Li Yao steadied her body, which was about to collapse.

Looking at Qin Taotao on the screen, who was imprisoned but still alive, a glimmer of hope rekindled in her long-extinguished eyes.

although.

She also didn't understand why such a change had happened.

But as long as a person is alive, there is still a chance!

There will definitely be another chance!

however!

Just as hundreds of millions of people in Kyushu were immersed in this sudden surprise.

Mutation.

Once again, it happened without warning!

Kyushu, inside the highest command center.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

A strange, muffled sound, as if striking directly on one's heart, suddenly rang out without warning in the vast command center!

The sound wasn't loud.

Yet it reached everyone's ears clearly!

It's like someone...

He was slowly and deliberately knocking on a heavy wooden door with his hand.

What was that sound?

A technician frowned in confusion and began to inspect his equipment.

"Is there a problem with the audio cable? Why is there static?"

"No! Listen! That voice...that voice sounds like..."

More and more people are taking notice of this voice.

But after they carefully examined it...

Everyone's face turned deathly pale in an instant!

That sound...

That knocking sound...

It was exactly the same as that eerie, deadly audio that Qin Taotao had played on her phone before!

The Door-Knocking Ghost!

It's the voice of the ghost knocking on the door!

"Quick! Check the sound source! Where is the sound coming from!"

The commander-in-chief suddenly stood up and let out a roar!

An indescribable fear, like a cold, venomous snake, instantly crept up everyone's spine!

"Report! It's not a problem with the live stream signal! We've already implemented the highest level of jamming for the sounds from the eerie world!"

"Report! All external audio sources at command center have been cut off! This sound isn't coming from outside!"

"Then where did it come from?!"

The commander-in-chief's voice trembled with fear.

A most terrifying and unacceptable thought surfaced in everyone's mind!

That sound...

It appeared out of thin air!

It appeared in the real world just like that!

They appeared inside the most heavily guarded Kyushu command center!

And at that very moment.

Everyone.

As if struck by a sudden inspiration, they abruptly raised their heads and looked at the live stream again!

on the screen.

The terrifying knocking ghost still had its hand on Qin Taotao's forehead.

It didn't kill her.

It's not that I don't want to kill.

It wasn't like I was playing a trick on her.

But...

It's establishing a coordinate system through Qin Taotao's body! A connection!

A journey from a bizarre world to the real world...

Bridge!

It doesn't intend to kill Qin Taotao directly!

It intends to use Qin Taotao as a medium to invade the real world!

boom!!!

The moment this thought exploded in everyone's mind like a bolt from the blue!

The entire Kyushu command center.

A deathly silence, even more profound and complete than before, descended upon them!

If the previous despair was due to Qin Taotao's personal life or death.

So the fear at this moment stems from...

The fate of the entire Kyushu!

A vengeful ghost!

A vengeful ghost from a bizarre world!

It's incredible that it's possible to intervene in, and even... bring reality into being, through this method!

This has never happened before!

This is a terrifying truth that could overturn everyone's understanding and bring about the destruction of the world!

"It...it's coming..."

Li Yao's lips had lost all color.

She looked at the screen.

The girl's figure, which seemed to have become a passage connecting two worlds, trembled violently.

A glimmer of hope.

At this moment, it was utterly shattered by an even crueler and colder reality!

even.

The entire world was dragged into an abyss!

After a brief silence.

In the gloating live streams from Japan and the United States, cheers and shouts erupted in a frenzy and hysteria more intense than ever before!

"Hahaha! So that's how it is! So that's how it is!"

"Oh My God!"

"This is absolutely brilliant! It's not trying to kill that girl, it's going to Kyushu!"

"That's fantastic! That's exactly how it should be!"

"Let the vengeful spirits descend upon their land! Let them taste the bitterness of being ruled by fear!"

"Well done!"

"S-Rank Demon! Begin your slaughtering feast across the land of Kyushu!"

"The expressions on the faces of the people of Kyushu right now must be priceless, right?"

"From hope to despair, and then to an even greater despair! Hahaha, I'm laughing so hard I'm going crazy!"

"it's over!"

"This time, the Nine Provinces are utterly finished! The nation's fate is sealed! Even the gods cannot save it!"

curse!

carnival!

The gloating shouts echoed through the sky!

For them.

This is a million times more exciting than simply watching Qin Taotao die!

This is the real apocalyptic carnival!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Inside the Kyushu command center, the eerie knocking continued.

And it became clearer and clearer, louder and louder!

It was as if that invisible door was being forcibly pushed open little by little from another world!

The shadow of death.

For the first time, it so realistically enveloped the real world!

Kyushu, inside the highest command center.

Dead!

A deathly silence, like that of a tomb!

When the phrase "invading reality" transforms into the coldest nightmare, looming over everyone's head.

The whole world seemed to have lost its sound.

The ecstasy that had ignited because Qin Taotao had survived now seemed so ironic and so pathetic.

That was not a glimmer of hope.

That was the first ray of eerie light shining through the gates of hell as they slowly opened!

Boom!Boom!Boom!

The knocking continued.

It became clearer, heavier.

It was as if the knocks were not on an empty door, but rather resounding on the dragon veins of Kyushu, striking the heart of every Kyushu resident!

Every time it sounds.

Everyone present felt their hearts skip a beat, and their faces paled even more.

"Alarm! Sound the highest alert!"

The commander-in-chief's hoarse, trembling roar finally broke the deathly silence!

Ugh—!

The piercing buzzing sound instantly reverberated throughout the entire underground command center!

Bright red warning lights.

Like the bloodshot eyes of a dying person, they flashed wildly, turning everyone's face a blood red!

Highest level alert!

This is the final contingency plan that will only be activated when facing the threat of national annihilation!

"Notify all war zones! Enter Level 1 combat readiness status!"

"Activate Project 'The Great Wall'! All underground shelters, open immediately!"

"All...all demon tamers, stand by!"

One instruction after another.

It came out with difficulty from the commander-in-chief's mouth.

however.

Everyone understands.

These preparations are not intended to prevent it.

But it was for...

We are preparing for the end of the world.

In order to be able to enter reality after the knocking ghost descends and begins its incomprehensible killing spree.

To the best of our ability.

In response to any potential terrorist incidents, to preserve the last spark of hope.

What they have to face.

It's a terrifying, vengeful ghost!

A terrifying existence that even that man had to give way to!

Li Yao slowly straightened up.

In her eyes.

The glimmer of hope that had just been rekindled had long been swallowed up by endless darkness and cold.

All that remained was ashes.

As one of the few people who experienced the bizarre instance with Yang Jian.

No one knew better than her what this door-knocking ghost really meant.

She had seen it with her own eyes.

In that city shrouded in endless darkness.

Even someone as powerful as Yang Jian chose to temporarily avoid the brunt of this ghost's attack.

It was a despair that was impossible to resist.

Every time it knocks on the door.

Both represent the end of a life.

No matter where you hide, no matter how powerful you are, you cannot escape.

And now.

This ghost, which even Yang Jian found troublesome, is about to step out of the screen and descend upon their fragile real world.

as a result of?

Li Yao could no longer imagine that scene.

That was not a disaster.

That's cleaning.

She relied solely on her own strength.

Let alone a solution.

They probably wouldn't even be able to get close before being instantly annihilated by that unsolvable killing pattern.

If we let it happen in the real world...

Kyushu.

There will be no more peace!

No.

Perhaps not just Kyushu, but the whole world!

This moment.

The cheers of millions of viewers in the Kyushu livestream room had long since faded.

Instead.

It was the same deep-seated fear and anxiety that the command center felt.

"How could this happen... how could this happen!"

"It's over, everything is over."

"An S-class demon is coming to our world?! Someone, please save us!"

"Where's Master Yang? Quickly, go and fetch Master Yang! Only he can deal with this kind of thing!"

"But...Yang Shen is still in the supernatural world! How can he come back!"

panic.

Like a plague, it spread wildly through the internet to every corner of Kyushu.

The rapid fall from hope to despair brought everyone's spirits to the brink of collapse.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

The knocking was incredibly loud!

It no longer seemed to come from just a corner of the command center, but rather from all directions, from the ceiling, from the floor, and from behind everyone, all at once!

The entire command center.

They were all trembling slightly in rhythm with the sound.

The water in the glass on the table rippled in circles.

The overhead light bulbs emitted a buzzing sound, flickering on and off.

An indescribable chill appeared out of nowhere, as if the air conditioner temperature had been instantly turned down to below zero, stinging one's skin with a sharp, piercing pain.

Everyone instinctively looked at the live stream screen.

on the screen.

The hand that the knocking ghost had placed on Qin Taotao's forehead had turned as black as ink.

Wisps of black mist.

Like a venomous snake with life, it was continuously burrowing into Qin Taotao's body from its palm.

Qin Taotao's body.

It is undergoing a bizarre change at a speed visible to the naked eye.
