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

Two stark white lights.

It tore through the thick fog before their eyes like a sharp sword.

A dilapidated taxi.

With an utterly illogical speed, a beautiful drift, and they came to a stop sideways between them and the ghost messengers!

"Squeak—!"

The screeching sound of brakes.

It sounded particularly loud in the deathly silent ruins.

As the car crashed in.

The four players immediately felt a lightness on their bodies; the terrifying pressure had been abruptly cut off!

The car door opened.

Qin Taotao's cool yet slightly tired face appeared before them.

"Get in! Hurry up if you want to live!"

The four players were stunned for a moment, then burst into ecstasy.

"It's...it's Qin Taotao from Kyushu!"

"We're saved! Quick! Get in the car!"

They scrambled and stumbled toward the taxi, jostling to squeeze inside.

On the other side...

The ghost messenger's empty gaze fell on the taxi.

Its target has been stolen.

It seems a bit...

anger.

The surrounding fog churned even more violently.

The ghost messenger raised his hand again, this time aiming it at the eerie taxi!

It intends to annihilate this vehicle that dares to defy the rules, along with everyone on board!

"snort."

From the back seat came a cold snort from the opera troupe's ghost.

He did not get out of the car.

He simply made a theatrical entrance gesture through the car window, facing the ghost messenger.

An invisible force

The fluctuations, also containing the power of rules, spread out.

The ghost messenger's pen, about to fall, froze once again.

its existence.

It seems to have been interfered with in some way.

As the number of people in the car increased from two to six, its terrifying aura was noticeably weakened.

As one side gains and the other loses, the other gains.

The balance between it and the ghosts in the opera troupe has been broken.

The ghost messenger gave the opera troupe ghosts inside the carriage a deep "look," then his figure slowly faded away again, retreating unwillingly.

"Walk!"

Qin Taotao did not hesitate at all.

They immediately started the car again and sped towards the next player's location they detected.

Having learned from the initial success,

The subsequent rescue operation went much more smoothly.

With the help of the ghostly opera troupe and the eerie taxi driver, Tao Tao, like a medic on a battlefield, constantly navigates through the thick fog of Huanggang Village.

She successfully located two more groups of players who were being targeted by the ghost messengers and pulled them back from the brink of death.

Gradually.

The taxi was already packed with people.

When Qin Taotao rescued the last lone player from the Sakura Kingdom.

Inside the car, including herself.

The total number of people was exactly ten!

This taxi was supposed to carry only five people, but as Qin Taotao's eerie aura increased, the number of people it could carry also kept increasing.

They were all shrouded in a mysterious fog inside the eerie taxi.

Just as the tenth person boarded the bus.

"Buzz—"

A strange wave emanated from the taxi and spread outwards in all directions.

The surrounding fog was so thick it seemed impossible to dispel.

At this moment.

As if they had encountered their nemesis, they began to retreat rapidly.

vision.

It became clear in just a few seconds.

The terrifying pressure that had been hanging over everyone, as if death could descend at any moment, also vanished.

Everyone has a feeling.

That terrifying ghost messenger seemed... to be no longer a threat to them.

"Ten people..." Qin Taotao murmured to herself, a flash of understanding appearing in her eyes, "This is a balance point."

A perfect number that can both break the "lone wolf" rule and dispel the mystery surrounding Huanggang Village.

"My mission is complete."

In the back seat.

The ghostly voice of the opera troupe rang out leisurely.

He glanced at the old ancestral hall that had been revealed in the center of the village after the fog dissipated, and the conspicuous black coffin in front of it.

"You'll have to walk the rest of the road yourselves."

Done.

His figure vanished silently from the car like wisps of smoke, as if he had never been there at all.

The players inside the car watched as the ghost opera troupe suddenly vanished.

He then looked at Qin Taotao in the driver's seat, his face showing respect and gratitude.

If it weren't for this woman from Kyushu.

They are now.

They're probably already souls in the hands of the ghost messengers.

"Thank you... thank you so much, Miss Qin, for saving my life!"

The first white player to be rescued said sincerely.

Others echoed his sentiments.

Qin Taotao simply nodded, her gaze already fixed on the ancestral hall and coffin in the distance.

"Let's go, the end of the mission should be there."

She turned off the taxi.

The strange vehicle then vanished into thin air.

A group of ten people.

With a mix of trepidation and excitement, I headed towards the center of Huanggang Village.

The fog was no longer an obstacle.

They soon arrived at the ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall is old and dilapidated.

In front of the door, a pitch-black coffin sat quietly.

Around the coffin.

It exudes a faint, chilling aura.

Everyone stopped in their tracks, not daring to approach easily.

"The mission requirement is to deliver the letter."

"That letter should have been placed in this coffin."

Qin Taotao analyzed.

She came from her arms.

They took out the yellowed envelope that was the quest item.

"Who will open the coffin?" a player asked in a low voice.

Everyone fell silent.

No one knows what will happen after the coffin is opened.

It's lying inside.

Is it a corpse, or an even more terrifying vengeful ghost?

Just as everyone was hesitating.

"rustle……"

That familiar one.

The sound of footsteps, as if treading on the very tip of one's heart, rang out once more.

Everyone turned around abruptly.

The figure dressed in ancient clothes, a ghost messenger, stood not far behind them, quietly watching them.

"what!"

Several timid players screamed in fright and instinctively tried to run away.

"Don't move!"

Qin Taotao shouted sternly:

"We have ten of us now! It won't attack us!"

Her voice.

Like a tranquilizer, it quickly calmed the restless crowd.

really.

Although the ghost appeared, it simply stood there without any intention to attack.

It was as if a detached overseer was supervising them as they completed their task.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems.

Once ten people are gathered, the ghost messenger will change from a "hunter" to an "observer".

Qin Taotao no longer hesitated.

He took a deep breath and walked forward alone.

She took her hand.

It was placed on the cold coffin lid.

Very heavy.

She tried her best, but could only push it a little bit.

"Let's help!" she called out as she turned around.

Several other braver male players immediately stepped forward and worked together to push the coffin lid.

"One...two...three! Go!"

"Creak—"

Amidst a teeth-grinding scraping sound, the heavy coffin lid was slowly pushed open a crack by the crowd.

A musty and cold aura seeped out from the crack.

Everyone held their breath and peered into the gap.

Inside the coffin.

There were no skeletons or vengeful ghosts as one might have imagined.

Instead... there was a person lying there.

A man dressed in funeral clothes, his face normal, as if he were just asleep.

Everyone was stunned, their faces filled with surprise and confusion.

What is this?

The mission is to deliver a letter to a sleeping beauty in a coffin?

The ghost messenger remained watching quietly from a distance, without making any reaction.

This confirmed to Qin Taotao that they were on the right track.

She no longer hesitated.

He carefully slipped the envelope through the gap in the coffin lid and gently placed it on the man's chest.

The moment the envelope made contact with the person's body.

An unexpected change occurred!

The man in the coffin, who had remained lifeless the whole time, suddenly... twitched his eyelids!

Followed by.

Under the horrified gazes of everyone.

He did it slowly.

I opened my eyes!

This moment.

Qin Taotao sensed a very obvious living presence.

That person is indeed alive!

But the next second, a strong sense of ghost stories welled up in my heart.

This is a bizarre world.

How could there possibly be any living people there?

and,

He saw that the lying section wasn't for players like himself who had been selected!
