The blood door grew in Zhang Ding’s forr ho and beca the place’s only ‘tenant’. Among the old and decrepit apartnts, Gao Ming took a new step.
“It won’t be that hard to enter the shadow world in the future.” Gao Ming took out his birthday portrait and pushed open the door again with the group watching. Outside the door was Zhang Ding’s ho a decade ago. Inside the door was the shadow world. Anyone could use this door to traverse between the two worlds easily. However, only one person could open the door with ease, and that person was Gao Ming.
The souls who had been infected by the shadow world couldn’t wait to reunite with the shadows. The group inside the house instantly disappeared. The blood capillaries from the door changed the layout of Zhang Ding’s ho. His bathroom beca the new Ho of Lunatics, and his bedroom beca the new Ho of Butchers.
“Call everyone here. We’ll use Li San and Da Zai as the centre to create a new death border city.”
While Wei Dayou went to get everyone, Gao Ming entered the Ho of Butchers. He placed the birthday portrait inside the Bone City to summon the map. Anomalies were triggered all around the city. The buildings on the map started to change colours due to the appearance of the shadow. They morphed from the original white to bloody red and, finally, pure darkness. Gao Ming believed he had seen this in one of his futures.
“The investigation centre might seal up the buildings with anomalies and send people to deal with them. At the sa ti, they will train more people to attempt to control the cursed objects and the ghosts.” He Yi was tossed out of the flood. He was a dog trained by Situ An. He’d do anything to survive.
“I know you have multiple big ghosts, but that is not enough to rival the centre. Humans will go crazy before a threat. They’d do anything.” He Yi crawled up from the ground and walked to Gao Ming, “I’ve seen many taboo experints done by the investigation centres with my own eyes. That includes blood sacrifices, voluntary possessions and so on. They have even targeted fetuses so that ghosts can be born in real life.”
“Is it the sa with the other cities?” Gao Ming felt like Han Hai was different from the other cities. Anomalies had occurred in Jiujiang and Xin Lu, but they didn’t involve the common citizens.
“I heard from the chief that Han Hai is an abandoned city. The goal of this city is to take the path of…” He Yi paused before continuing, “Self-destruction. They want to see what will happen if a city falls to the shadow world.”
“Is that not Situ An’s own idea?” Zhang Ding didn’t trust He Yi at all.
“Perhaps.” He Yi looked at the devices taken from the east city investigation centre. “I know how to operate all of these. They can be used to conduct human personality and potential tests. It’ll help you find suitable newbies. These weapons are useless against ghosts, but they are very useful against humans.”
Gao Ming said nothing as he studied the map. Half an hour later, Wei Dayou led everyone over from Min Long Street. “Gao Ming, I heard from the villagers at Bo Wan Village that the security mbers had once entered the shadow world. To lead them away from the village, Zhao Xi and An An ventured deep into the city.”
“Have we still not found them?”
“An An said he heard sothing calling his na. He and Zhao Xi headed to Han De Private School.”
“It should be Ji Jie.” Gao Ming signalled them to enter the Ho of Butchers. He had them touch the map to beco official citizens of the Shadow Han Hai. They were villagers from Bo Wan Village, the students from Han De Private School and investigators from the east city investigation centre.
The humans who had been infected by the shadow had minute changes to their bodies, and they appeared to form a special bond with Gao Ming. They would subconsciously listen to his orders.
The number of human citizens rose. When the number reached 100, sothing clicked within Gao Ming. The God of Flesh and Blood was overjoyed. Every person who beca a citizen through Gao Ming would provide God with a trace of blood. Gao Ming could feel his body, reaction speed, and mind beco stronger than before.
“I wonder what will happen when there are 1000 citizens. If this continues, I might be able to do that thing.” Gao Ming was killed by the naless person inside the tunnel endless tis. After he eliminated Situ An, he thought of returning to the tunnel to kill the person who appeared behind him!
“Maybe then the cycle will be fully broken, and I will have full control of my fate again.” Gao Ming’s hand pressed on the white bones on the ground. “I have to follow my goal and revive the city in the shadows. I’ll limit the anomalies and set up Han Hai’s rules.”
Gao Ming assigned the citizens different missions based on the colours of the buildings.
The citizens who only wanted stability would stay behind to help build the foundation of the city and learn to operate the devices. The citizens who were willing to take risks would be led by ghosts to explore the shadow world and the anomalies.
In the future, there would be more passages between the two worlds. The two worlds would unite faster. Gao Ming needed to construct his own realm before that happened.
“Reputation, support, power and wit. You have to own all of them.” Xia Yang witnessed the change in Gao Ming. “Who would have thought a forr psychiatrist would beco the mastermind?”
Gao Ming, who normally ignored Xia Yang, said seriously, “I’m rely picking up the city when it is being abandoned.”
Gao Ming set the building where the blood door was as the ‘family door’ and set up a new security team. He had Zhang Ding and the supermarket custors be the customs guards temporarily to handle the dangerous items and provide safety and aid services.
Even though his city only had 100 people, as the tragedy spread, his city would expand quickly.
“I seem to grasp the concept of ho now.” Gao Ming left the Ho of Butchers and looked at the lifeless Han Hai in the shadow world. “There has to be other parents in this ruin. However, only one parent can manage the city.”
Gao Ming was a nobody in the past. He beca himself after many deaths.
With his endless killers in his heart, he would combine the experiences of two supervillains and start a new era.
