As Lu Ming stiffly waved the mummified bride’s hand through the air, the supernatural power that summoned ghosts was activated.
A chill several times colder than before spread outward, making everyone present feel a shiver in their hearts.
The fierce ghosts in the rooms on both sides of the corridor seemed to be driven by some force. They slowly walked out of their rooms, and faint, hair-raising laughter echoed through the enclosed space.
Lu Ming and the mummified bride continued deeper in. More and more ghosts appeared, until in the end, those fierce ghosts crowded densely into the corridor, swaying eerily as they followed behind Lu Ming.
“Lu Ming, what the hell did you do!”
Luo Suyi cried out in terror. No matter what kind of terrifying fierce ghost Lu Ming controlled, this behavior was simply courting death.
In Luo Suyi’s understanding, there was absolutely no way anyone could survive in a situation surrounded by so many fierce ghosts.
Yang Jian’s expression also turned somewhat cold.
He had a certain understanding of Lu Ming’s situation.
This was a ghost controller who simultaneously controlled the mummified bride and the ghost mourning clothes. His level of terror had reached a degree that was almost inconceivable.
However, the two fierce ghosts inside Lu Ming had not achieved complete balance, let alone crashed into dormancy. His condition was extremely unstable; he was an exceedingly dangerous existence.
Using supernatural power like this, Lu Ming had a very high chance of triggering the revival of the fierce ghosts. At that point, what Yang Jian and the others would have to face would not merely be the dangers within the Caesar Hotel.
The ghosts inside Lu Ming’s body might very well form another S-rank supernatural incident in ZS City, one called the Red and White Double Evils.
When that time came, even Headquarters would have no choice but to abandon ZS City and let this place become a terrifying supernatural land.
“He’s using the supernatural power to summon ghosts. For fierce ghosts, that doesn’t amount to much, but for a ghost controller, it is undoubtedly extremely dangerous…”
Yang Jian’s expression darkened. He looked at Xiong Wenwen and said, “Use your precognition. If the situation gets out of control next, we run immediately.”
Hearing this, Xiong Wenwen did not say much and nodded.
This Lu Ming gave him a very bad feeling, even more terrifying than Yang Jian.
So even though the fierce ghost inside Xiong Wenwen already showed signs of revival, he still obeyed Yang Jian’s instruction and used the supernatural power of precognition.
Xiong Wenwen’s childish face turned pale, gradually losing the aura of a living person, becoming like a true corpse.
The future was foretold in his mind.
Yang Jian and the others stared at him intently, waiting for Xiong Wenwen’s reaction.
The next moment, Xiong Wenwen’s tightly shut eyes suddenly opened, his young face filled with disbelief.
“How did he do that? How is that possible!”
“Xiong Wenwen, cut the nonsense. Do we need to leave?”
“No. There shouldn’t be too much danger here for the time being.”
If they had not witnessed Xiong Wenwen’s supernatural power beforehand, Yang Jian and the others probably would have thought he was spouting nonsense.
So many fierce ghosts were packed densely into the corridor before them. How could there possibly be no danger?
Huang Fei, one of the three from Dahai City, seemed about to say something, but what happened next choked the words back into his mouth.
After the fierce ghosts came out of the hotel rooms, they did not attack Lu Ming. Instead, they followed behind him quite calmly, forming a long line that looked orderly.
Lu Ming was still holding the mummified bride’s hand, waving it through the air.
He was summoning ghosts.
Summoning ghosts was the supernatural power of the ghost wedding dress worn by the mummified bride. It could summon nearby fierce ghosts.
But Lu Ming was only a ghost controller. He was using the supernatural power of the ghost wedding dress so madly, yet there was not the slightest sign of his consciousness being eroded by the supernatural.
“According to my previous observations, the ghost mourning clothes and the ghost wedding dress shouldn’t be able to form a good balance, let alone put Lu Ming into this kind of crash-like state.”
“Could it be… that the fierce ghosts Lu Ming controls are not limited to these two? In these few days, did he control another fierce ghost and stabilize his own condition?”
When this thought surfaced in Yang Jian’s mind, it startled even himself.
After all, this idea was far too unbelievable.
Perfectly controlling three fierce ghosts, one of which was the mummified bride, a fierce ghost whose terror level had reached S-rank…
If Yang Jian’s guess was true, then Lu Ming could absolutely be considered one of the top ghost controllers today.
At this moment, Lu Ming, walking stiffly down the corridor, had no idea that his image in Yang Jian’s mind was becoming increasingly unfathomable.
As Lu Ming moved forward, he shifted his eyes, observing the room numbers on the doors to either side.
The thing he was looking for was in Room 31 of the Caesar Hotel.
Not long ago, Yang Jian had made a deal with the ghost cabinet to inquire about Zhao Lei’s whereabouts. The clue the ghost cabinet gave was Room 13.
The ghost cabinet had not lied, but in a sense, that information had misled Yang Jian.
The newspaper ghost would place the victim’s body in Room 13 and the removed face in Room 31.
What Lu Ming wanted was that old bloodstained newspaper at the source. That old newspaper was precisely inside Room 31.
“That ghost went to quite some effort in order to deal with Yang Jian. But since it knows I’ll also come to the Caesar Hotel, didn’t it prepare anything for me?”
Since ZS City had already been infiltrated by the newspaper ghost, it was not strange for that ghost to know his movements.
Fortunately, even if it had noticed that he was coming, in such a short time, that ghost could not possibly make too many arrangements.
This thought had only just arisen in Lu Ming’s mind when, immediately after, the cry of an infant broke the silence of the corridor.
The crying seemed to carry a supernatural effect. It was incomparably sharp, capable of piercing a person’s eardrums.
Not only was Lu Ming affected by this sudden cry, even Yang Jian and the others outside the corridor had a change in expression.
This fierce ghost did not kill through its crying. Otherwise, Luo Suyi and the others would have died long ago.
“The ghost’s terror level is very high, but it has not exceeded my control.”
Lu Ming thought inwardly.
This extra corridor on the fourth floor of the Caesar Hotel was a true supernatural land.
No matter what kind of terrifying fierce ghosts appeared here, it would not exceed Lu Ming’s expectations.
As long as Lu Ming could use the mummified bride’s ghost-summoning power, these ghosts would not become obstacles to him seizing the old bloodstained newspaper.
Moreover, with the help of the tall male corpse’s ghost hatchet, Lu Ming temporarily did not need to consider the problem of the fierce ghosts inside him reviving.
Only after getting closer did he discover that all the other doors were open. Only the door ahead, from which the infant’s cries came, was tightly shut.
Bang, bang, bang!
Perhaps sensing Lu Ming’s arrival, something behind the room’s wooden door began slapping against it constantly, producing loud noises.
The whimpering cries of the infant became even louder. It did not feel like there was only one ghost, but rather like countless ghosts were locked behind that wooden door, crying out in grief and resentment.
Lu Ming’s expression changed, and his heart sank.
He could indeed use the mummified bride’s ghost-summoning supernatural power now.
But temporary balance was, after all, not true dormancy. The more ghosts he summoned, the greater the risk of his revival.
He had already summoned so many fierce ghosts just now, and behind this door, there were definitely several, perhaps even a dozen fierce ghosts.
