Chapter 71 Disappearance
Chapter 71 Disappearance
"You're right, but you don't need to worry."
As Wang Xiaoming spoke, he pulled a bag out of his pocket. Yang Jian could tell at a glance that the bag was made of the same material as a body bag. Regardless of the material on the outside, the inside was definitely mixed with gold.
You could say this is a small body bag.
"Is it filled with supernatural items?" Yang Jian asked.
Wang Xiaoming shook his head, opened his pocket, and took out a cell phone. Zhang Wei leaned forward to look at it, and asked doubtfully, "A cell phone? It'll let me leave?"
"This is Lin Yuan's phone. You should know that he used to be a ghost tamer in Dachang City. He knew Zhou Zheng, but he left after some trouble. This phone was left behind by him. His most special ability is to travel through reflective objects. Of course, the prerequisite is that they are anchored by his supernatural power, otherwise he will not be able to find his way."
Wang Xiaoming said into the satellite phone that was still connected, "Lin Yuan, it's ready now, come over."
"If you had this, why didn't you use it sooner?" Yang Jian's tone turned cold. "Just now you were talking to me about responsibility and caring about the people in this city. With this, you could have saved many people long ago."
Not only him, but even Zhang Wei, who was usually unreliable, looked very unpleasant.
Jiang Yan pursed her lips, her eyes reddening.
"Lin Yuan was dealing with an S-level paranormal incident and rushed over as soon as he got away," Wang Xiaoming explained, then placed his phone in front of everyone.
"He will come and take away those he can take with him first. As for the ghosts in this city, we will have a safer space to think about how to deal with them."
"good!"
Yang Jian closed his eyes and began to wait.
However, time ticked by, and soon ten minutes had passed, but Lin Yuan still hadn't appeared. Yang Jian frowned and asked, "Professor Wang, are you sure Lin Yuan can get out of here? Or is it that this phone isn't supernaturally anchored to him?"
"Impossible, he used this phone before!"
Wang Xiaoming felt uneasy and contacted Cao Yanhua again via satellite-guided mobile phone. "Where's Lin Yuan? Has he arrived, or is he going to try to negotiate again?"
"Hmm? Professor Wang, he hasn't gone over there yet? He went over ten minutes ago, and since you haven't shown up, we thought he had a falling out with you and was going to attack you."
The phone was ringing loudly; everyone heard it.
Yang Jian's face fell, and Zhang Wei plopped down on the ground, lamenting, "It's all over! I should have known better than to listen to you; I could have played a few more games. What a loss!"
Ten minutes ago.
Inside the temporary command post, Lin Yuan, Cao Yanhua, Zhao Jianguo, Qin Lao, Cao Yang, Jiang Shangbai, and a few others were gathered together. After receiving Wang Xiaoming's signal, Cao Yanhua said, "Lin Yuan, thank you for making this trip."
"I understand the principle of 'getting paid to do a job'."
Lin Yuan waved his hand and, under everyone's gaze, walked into a full-length mirror that Cao Yanhua had arranged beforehand.
"This kid, with just this one move, practically no one can restrain him. It's practically a life-saving technique. But wait, if we use Ghost Domain, knowing his abilities beforehand, we can still limit him."
Cao Yang stepped forward and examined the mirror.
The mirror was originally able to reflect everyone's images, but after Lin Yuan used his supernatural powers, even though they were standing in front of the mirror, they could no longer leave their reflections on the surface.
He reached out and touched it.
The mirror was still a mirror, but it looked extremely cold and gloomy.
"Things affected by his supernatural powers leave no trace, so there are still clues to follow. I'll have to be more careful in the future, lest he break into my house in the middle of the night."
Listening to Cao Yang's mutterings and recalling his own experiences, Jiang Shangbai sneered, "Don't underestimate him. He has a supernatural item... no, it should be called a supernatural weapon."
He then shut his mouth.
Cao Yanhua frowned and asked, "What is it?"
Seeing that Jiang Shangbai did not answer, Cao Yang chuckled and said, "Looks like you've learned your lesson. Look at you, you have more fine lines around your eyes. You weren't like this yesterday. Did you forget to put on makeup?"
What?
Jiang Shangbai's expression changed, and he quickly reached out to touch the corner of his eye.
Feeling the fine lines that shouldn't have appeared, and thinking about how he wasn't feeling well today, his face instantly turned very ugly.
Besides suppressing movement, what other effects does that bell have?
Damn!
Jiang Shangbai grew increasingly uneasy, fearing that Lin Yuan might affect his body like he had used a mirror to cast a supernatural spell. He stopped being coy and said, "A red ghost candle—this is information I obtained at a great cost. Minister Cao is hostile to headquarters; I think you'll need this information. Don't tell me you've really used all your accumulated resources; I'm not stupid."
No matter how scarce the production of red ghost candles is, it is absolutely impossible to hand over all the stock to someone who is not even the head of headquarters.
"A white ghost candle," Cao Yanhua said firmly.
"Okay, deal."
Jiang Shangbai readily agreed, then, amidst Cao Yanhua's regretful and pained gaze, said, "That was a small bell. Just one strike suppressed the ghost I was controlling, and even my consciousness seemed to be temporarily suppressed. It was terrifying. Add to that the damage to my body..."
"It's the paranormal effect of the Ghost Bell Tower in Xiaonan City," Cao Yanhua immediately realized. "But the effect on the body... is the effect of Peng Anxiao's ghostly withered branch!"
The sound of the Ghost Bell Tower's bell will cause people to put on black robes and become ghost slaves, while also creating a new bell tower and spreading the supernatural, but it does not have the effect of absorbing life force.
Peng Anxiao's Ghostly Dry Branch had just the right effect.
Thinking about it carefully, Lin Yuan's physical condition also looks very mature. Although there are no obvious fine lines, it doesn't seem to match his age.
"This is really troublesome. If we can't get Lin Yuan to join headquarters, then..."
Cao Yanhua sensed that things were getting tricky.
The three methods of the Mirror Actor were already quite bizarre; with the addition of the Ghost Bell Tower and the Ghost Withered Branch, Lin Yuan had already mastered the supernatural abilities of three vengeful ghosts.
Although Lin Yuan hasn't used the Ghost Domain yet, that doesn't mean he hasn't.
The Ghost Realm of the Ghost Bell Tower is extremely terrifying. Regardless of whether Lin Yuan has fully mastered the Ghost Bell Tower, its level of terror and rating are already terrifying enough.
Cao Yanhua suddenly turned around and glanced at Old Qin.
Old Qin stood there quietly, his expression unchanged, which made Cao Yanhua breathe a slight sigh of relief.
Thankfully, Old Qin is still alive!
