Chapter 24: Return! Zhu Jiang is surprisingly strong?!
Recalling the shy gaze of Xiao Li, Lin Yu let out a sigh!
He truly was a deeply flawed man!
After all, with his sunny and handso appearance, he was hardly inferior to those movie stars,
having received love letters during his two lives in school was quite normal for him!
However, Lin Yu himself was not very interested in romance!
Especially with girls he t in horror gas…
Though Lin Yu believed that Xiao Li wouldn’t harm him, contacting her impulsively would inevitably expose certain matters!
He glanced at the clock on the wall, and although two days had passed in the horror ga, only a second had gone by in reality!
It was still just past Sunday, deep into early Monday morning!
After confirming that he could retrieve and use Zhu Jiang, the cursed necklace, and other items normally, Lin Yu felt relieved.
“Indeed, ghost controllers can bring ghosts and Yin artifacts back to reality!
“It seems that… with the increasing number of ‘strange incidents’ and bizarre news in recent years, many of them are likely caused by ghost handlers with ulterior motives!”
Thinking of this, Lin Yu took out his phone, hesitating for a mont, debating whether or not to call the No. 9 Investigation Center!
In the end, Lin Yu shook his head and put down the phone!
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust the authorities…
The implications of the horror ga were too vast, and contacting the authorities would inevitably expose so of his secrets…
Even if the officials had no intention of leaking information, it was hard to ensure that other ghost controllers wouldn’t take risks after hearing it!
Moreover, in his two lives, Lin Yu had always been free-spirited, and while he did want to help others survive in horror dungeons as much as possible, it didn’t an he wanted to turn it into a semi-forced responsibility.
So, Lin Yu ultimately set the phone aside.
He turned on the computer in his rental apartnt.
He didn’t rush to log into the website left by the bearded uncle, because due to his previous job, Lin Yu was quite knowledgeable about internet security.
After briefly masking his IP address, he logged into the site!
Once he entered the URL, a dark, minimalist interface appeared before Lin Yu.
“Horror Ga Communication Forum!”
The straightforward title was displayed in the upper right corner of the forum, which was divided into three main sections: announcents, discussions, and releases.
Lin Yu checked and found only two posts in the announcents section, posted by the verified accounts of the Xia Country official No. 9 Investigation Center and the forum itself.
One was the forum rules, and when Lin Yu clicked in, he found it was no different from an ordinary forum!
No personal attacks, no sensitive topics, no spreading rumors, no aningless spam…
This made Lin Yu feel sowhat nostalgic.
The other post from the Xia Country official forum was much more serious.
Upon entering, there were only three parts!
The first floor was an attachnt for the horror ga player guide, the second floor was the horror ga player code of conduct!
The latter resembled a simplified, temporary set of laws for horror ga players!
Prohibited from profiting through improper ans!
Prohibited from using supernatural thods to harm others!
Prohibited from actively exposing the existence of horror gas and ghosts, spreading panic!
…
The rules were indistinguishable from current laws!
And the punishnt asures only had three words.
“Consequences are self-borne!”
However, these words carried significant weight because of the third section’s content!
The third part was a lengthy, still-updating list of penalties for violators.
Arrests, on-the-spot executions, being shot after fleeing for days…
Each na and their fate left Lin Yu dumbfounded.
“Xia Country is amazing…”
Although he never intended to break the law, Lin Yu was still sowhat shocked.
Next, Lin Yu casually registered an account and downloaded the attachnt for the player guide.
As Lin Yu expected… this was an officially certified “experience summary”!
The three points he summarized were confird: ghosts must kill according to the rules, basic rules will have prompts, and the number of rules determines dungeon difficulty.
At the sa ti, Lin Yu also learned more useful information!
First… all horror dungeons exist within a common realm known as the “Ghost Realm”!
The Ghost Realm was vast, filled with countless ghosts, and the exploration of the entire Ghost Realm so far has only scratched the surface!
Secondly, ghosts were ranked as vengeful ghosts, evil ghosts, fierce ghosts, ferocious ghosts, ghost generals, ghost commanders, and ghost kings, seven levels in total!
The stronger the ghost, the more cunning it becos!
Similarly, ghost controllers were also ranked from one to nine!
First and second-level ghost controllers could control vengeful ghosts.
Third and fourth-level could control evil ghosts!
Fifth and sixth-level could control fierce ghosts!
Seventh, eighth, and ninth-level could control ferocious ghosts!
Currently, the highest recorded level of ghosts that could be controlled and contracted was the ferocious ghost!
This left Lin Yu sowhat speechless.
Only then did he realize how absurd it was for him to control Zhu Jiang!
“A ghost, a perfect-level ghost binding contract… able to disregard level differences, that’s just too powerful!
“And my luck is incredible!”
As a first-level ghost controller, his first ghost to control… was the ferocious ghost Zhu Jiang!
The highest recorded ghost that can be controlled!
“Brother!” Lin Yu called out to Zhu Jiang in his mind.
When he didn’t summon him, the contracted ghost would exist in a special space connected to his soul.
Zhu Jiang, having heard Lin Yu’s call, curiously responded. “What is it, Master?”
Though Lin Yu called Zhu Jiang brother, Zhu Jiang insisted on referring to Lin Yu as Master.
Lin Yu gently sighed.
“Nothing, brother… just wanted to complint you. You’re really amazing!”
