Mysterious Revival - Chapter 830 797 Supermarket
At this moment, Yang Jian was driving with a grim expression, carrying Li Yang in Dachuan City, completely disregarding traffic rules as they rammed through the streets.
His driving skills were not bad.
If he were to hit someone, it would mean that the person was no ordinary human.
“Turn right up ahead.” Li Yang directed Yang Jian using the GPS information on his phone.
However, after making the right turn, the two men found that a dozen or so cars suddenly drove onto the opposite lane, each accelerating to the max with their engines roaring, heading straight for them without any intention of slowing down or avoiding a collision.
“When it rains, it pours.”
Yang Jian’s eyes emitted a faint red light. He wanted to use the power of the Ghost Domain to eliminate these nuisances, but his Ghost Eye was on the verge of recovery.
He could barely use the Ghost Eye in the Ghost Post Office due to its suppression, but now outside, he dared not use the Ghost Eye casually, particularly against ordinary people who had been eroded by fierce ghosts.
It would be a waste.
However, Li Yang’s abilities were not very useful in this situation; he was suited for indoor, room-bound operations.
“No choice then.”
Yang Jian’s left hand, the cold and darkened Ghost Hand, moved.
The next moment.
Out of nowhere, a series of chilly and stiff palms grabbed the steering wheels inside the oncoming vehicles.
All the cars lost control as they were manipulated by the Ghost Hand.
The cars that were initially poised to crash head-on swerved left and right rapidly, clearing a path on the crowded road.
“Boom!”
Cars crashed, hitting the walls on the roadside, plowing into the shops along the way, leading to a series of accidents.
However, at this time, there wasn’t a single pedestrian on the sidewalks adjacent to the road, so no normal person was killed.
Instead, the drivers inside the cars, due to the impact of the accidents and the immense force of the rebound, had their heads shockingly shaken off their necks, rolling to the side.
Without their heads, all the drivers ceased any signs of life, becoming mere ordinary corpses, succumbing to an eerie silence.
“It seems like there are quite a number of people in Dachuan City afflicted by fierce ghosts.” Yang Jian’s face was expressionless as he continued to drive.
The number of private cars prepared to crash into him on the road were countless; starting from the first wave, this was already the fifth.
The endless stream of vehicles seemed to never cease.
“Are ghosts determined to kill me at all costs?” Yang Jian thought silently, “Or is a ghost preventing me from approaching a certain place? Regardless, continuing like this is disadvantageous for me. These people have become Ghost Slaves, and confronting them will only continuously worsen my condition.”
But now he couldn’t think of a better way.
Under normal circumstances, Yang Jian would not be afraid of such attacks, but with his current condition, the relentless attacks were giving him a headache.
“How much further?” asked Yang Jian.
He didn’t stop while driving; the Ghost Hand invaded and took control of every car that approached, steering them to crash into the side of the road.
A trail of car accidents stretched behind them.
“About five kilometers left,” said Li Yang; “Captain, how are you holding up? Can you endure it?”
“It’s nothing, it’s just that I can’t recklessly use my Ghost Eye anymore, or else I would’ve directly used the Ghost Domain to rush over,” Yang Jian shook his head and continued driving.
But his defenses were breached.
A large truck suddenly burst out from an adjacent road with no warning or defense; the invasion of the Ghost Hand had to be within Yang Jian’s sight. If combined with the Ghost Eye, there would be no blind spot, but now Yang Jian couldn’t do that.
“Bang!”
The severe collision flipped the car, dragging it on the ground before it came to a stop at the roadside.
“Having two car accidents in one day, it’s just endless,” Yang Jian was getting annoyed. He kicked the car door open again and stepped out.
Still unharmed.
For someone like Yang Jian, even these levels of attacks would find it extremely difficult to be lethal.
“The ghosts seem to be delaying time, or trying to wear us down to death here,” Li Yang also emerged unscathed, catching on and sharing his thoughts.
Yang Jian said, “Exactly, I’ve noticed this as well. Otherwise, if they really wanted to deal with us, why bother with explosions or car accidents? Knowing that these ordinary methods can’t kill us easily, they still continue to attack relentlessly. Either they want to wear us down to death, or these Ghost Slaves are simply attacking us without reason.”
“When fierce ghosts kill, they simply kill; it’s simple and straightforward without a lot of whys.”
“How much farther to our destination?”
“About three kilometers,” said Li Yang.
No sooner had he finished speaking, the nearby vehicles once again charged towards Yang Jian and Li Yang.
Without the Ghost Domain, an ordinary spirit-controller would truly be worn to death like this.
Yang Jian once again made use of the Ghost Hand’s powers.
A series of rigid and blackened fierce ghost hands appeared around the necks of everyone nearby, gripping them tightly.
The next moment.
One after another, the heads of these people who had been eroded by fierce ghosts rolled off, their bodies lost their movement and fell to the ground, the entire process devoid of any resistance.
They were equivalent to Ghost Slaves, able to be easily killed.
However, the quantity… was astonishingly large.
“How long has Dachuan City been out of control? It feels like there’s a problem with the entire city,” Yang Jian seized the opportunity to find a car and continued on the road.
The roadblocks had not ceased.
But Yang Jian and Li Yang continued moving forward.
Although these hindrances caused some trouble, they didn’t completely stop the two men.
After all, neither of them was ordinary, and they could not be defeated by such petty tricks.
Following the parking of a twisted and deformed truck.
Yang Jian and Li Yang arrived at the location given by the satellite phone.
This place was a large supermarket.
But there were hardly any pedestrians around, the streets were deserted and empty, as if isolated from the world.
After arriving here, Yang Jian and Li Yang no longer encountered any interruptions.
It seemed that there was a taboo in this place that forbade those people from getting close.
“Would Li Leping be in a place like this?” Yang Jian wondered, “Are you sure there’s no mistake with the location?”
“No mistake, it’s very precise, definitely right here,” Li Yang checked the phone again and said confidently.
Yang Jian said, “Then let’s go find him,”
The two immediately entered the large supermarket.
Inside was dim and oppressive, an unshakeable coldness pervaded, heavy with the stench of decomposing flesh, as though a body was rotting somewhere – impossible to dissipate even with ventilation because the source was present.
Yang Jian walked on the ground, his footsteps echoing in the desolate place with not a hint of other noise around.
Everything was exceedingly quiet.
He followed the source of the signal, moving deeper into the location.
However, as the two passed through the barrier and into the supermarket, they were immediately shocked.
The products that originally filled the supermarket shelves had all been cleared, replaced by neatly arranged dead human heads on the shelves – the elderly, women, men, the young… Each head with closed eyes, pale faces void of any blood.
The heads were closely packed on the upper, middle, and lower shelves.
A sweep over them was horrifying to the sight.
This was no shopping market, but a supermarket for disembodied heads chosen by vicious ghosts as spares.
All the heads, like goods, had become a selection for some ferocious ghost.
Once a ghost’s head decayed, a new, intact head would be taken from this place.
“How, how could this be?” Li Yang was also dumbfounded.
Although he had encountered some supernatural events, this scene was far too terrifying.
These heads were not props, but taken from actual living people.
Yang Jian’s face was dark and terrifying.
Now he understood why there were so few people on the streets of Dachuan City.
The level of ghostly erosion in this city was deeper than he had imagined, it was completely out of control, possibly even surpassing the Hungry Ghost incident in Dachang City.
“If a Headless Ghost Shadow invades a person, then the first part to rot should be the head. Logically, if a Ghost Shadow takes over a body, the first to rot should be the body. It needs the body, not so many heads… And can a Ghost Shadow based on a shadowy head erode to this extent?”
“Headless Ghost Shadows are not supposed to be of very high Terror Level. Or is Li Leping so useless that he can’t even deal with a Ghost Shadow?”
Yang Jian couldn’t understand why things had become like this.
Was Li Leping still responsible? He was even nominated as a team leader, it doesn’t make sense for him to be so useless.
But Yang Jian could not explain the situation in Dachuan City.
Or does this have something to do with the address of the Ghost Post Office in Mingyue Community? It’s not as simple as Yang Jian thought.
Insufficient information to analyze anything.
But Yang Jian was increasingly eager to find Li Leping, as he would know everything.
But now, is Li Leping human or ghost?
Has he too been eroded by the ghost?
Li Yang, still startled by the dense heads on the shelves, asked with a hint of horror, “Captain, what should we do in this situation?”
“What else can we do, we have to find a way to get to the source and see if we can deal with this,” Yang Jian said with a cold face.
“So we just ignore these heads?” Li Yang said, somewhat horrified, “These are the heads of living people.”
“If we find the bodies, there’s a chance to put them back, but I’m not sure if they can survive. Now is not the time to think about this. Wait, there’s movement, someone’s coming.” Yang Jian suddenly saw someone approaching from the depths, his eyes invaded by the Ghost Eye.
Even in darkness, he could see things better than an ordinary person.
The two immediately hid to the side to observe the situation first.
Once again, sounds echoed through the empty supermarket of heads.
Someone pushed a shopping cart at an unhurried pace, the sound of the wheels rubbing against the floor crisp and clear, reaching the ears of Yang Jian and Li Yang.
“If it’s a ghost, you cooperate with me to take action immediately and deal with it,” Yang Jian whispered.
Li Yang solemnly nodded his head.
The sound of the cart came closer and closer, and the person pushing it kept approaching, seemingly unaware of the arrival of Yang Jian and Li Yang.
