Ghost Compendium-Chapter 424 - 377: Assault and Rescue!

"Hmm? Wu Liang? Why are you spacing out?"

Zodiac Rabbit waved her hand in front of Wu Liang. She watched him standing there in a daze for a long time without any reaction, not knowing what he was pondering.

Wu Liang snapped back to reality and refocused his gaze on the glass jar in front of him and the motionless Zodiac Pig. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Dragon will get through this crisis, I promise."

This seemingly comforting remark made Zodiac Rabbit feel somewhat relieved.

In her view, Wu Liang might have some understanding of the situation or know that Director Long is currently improving.

However, Yin Qiming beside him raised his eyebrows with a puzzled expression.

He had an inexplicable feeling—Wu Liang's words were not just to comfort everyone, but seemed to have a kind of confidence he did not understand.

"Interesting... This is the second awakening... Regardless of the old world or the current world, it's a unique example. What does this kid have up his sleeve that can help Zodiac Dragon through this crisis?"

Yin Qiming became increasingly curious about Wu Liang's powers and methods.

This curiosity had existed since his consciousness was trapped with the Pioneer.

Because he and the Pioneer were originally one, he understood more about their methods, and after witnessing multiple confrontations between Wu Liang and the Pioneer, the multiple yet non-conflicting abilities this kid had seemed even more mysterious.

Even more, his ability to control a large number of Fierce Ghosts without causing conflict among them was an unsolved mystery.

Thinking of this, Yin Qiming couldn't help but step forward.

He planned to have Wu Liang go to the next room for a private chat about Zodiac Dragon's second awakening.

But as soon as he opened his mouth to say something, a familiar feeling surged in his heart, instantly making Yin Qiming feel strong unease.

"This is my own aura! No, the Pioneer is here!"

Just as Yin Qiming was about to warn Wu Liang in front of him to be prepared for confrontation, everything went black.

At the moment he lost consciousness, he realized that the Pioneer had found some way to remotely and directly affect him.

"Of course... Since no one knows oneself better than oneself... To attack officially, it's necessary to restrict me first..."

Thud—

From an outsider's perspective, it seemed like he was taking a step towards Wu Liang and then collapsed on the ground unconscious without warning.

This unexpected loss of consciousness immediately startled Wu Liang and the others.

They quickly squatted down to check Yin Qiming's condition.

The medical staff around them immediately used the surrounding medical equipment to conduct a comprehensive check on Yin Qiming.

"Vitals—stable."

"Mental fluctuations—stable."

"No current supernatural power fluctuations inside, the possibility of a curse cannot be ruled out."

"..."

While everyone was busy helping check his condition, Wu Liang frowned and stood up to look towards the direction of the glass jar.

Before, he heard Zodiac Rabbit mention that Yin Qiming had been tirelessly researching Director Long's condition, having not slept for many days now.

It seemed possible that he fainted from overwork.

But Wu Liang didn't think so.

Given that the supernatural objects the other party mastered might even extend life, fainting from fatigue seemed unlikely.

Moreover... he had a lingering feeling that something was moving in this room.

An unseen entity.

"Everyone! Don't move! Stop everything you're doing!"

Suddenly, Wu Liang shouted loudly.

This action made everyone, including Zodiac Rabbit, freeze in place.

She instinctively wanted to ask Wu Liang what was happening.

But upon seeing his serious expression, she immediately shut her open mouth.

Although she usually found his cocky attitude quite annoying, there was no denying that Wu Liang's strength was absolutely formidable!

Ba-dum—ba-dum—

At that moment, everyone paused their actions.

The only sounds in the room were the subtle vibrations of medical equipment and the group's heartbeat reverberating.

The medical staff didn't even realize why they had immediately stopped their actions without a doubt after just one sentence.

Wu Liang lifted his leg and walked slowly towards the glass jar holding Director Long.

He advanced until there was less than half a meter between him and the jar before stopping.

"No breath, no sound, not even a soul ripple." He suddenly said something strange: "If I hadn't returned today, you might have succeeded, truly a brilliantly executed assassination!"

Bang—

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Liang suddenly punched the glass jar.

This action made everyone grit their teeth, and quite a few couldn't help but gasp out loud.

No one expected that the man brought by Zodiac Rabbit would actually target Director Long!

However, before everyone could stop Wu Liang, they found something even more eerie—

Wu Liang's fist, striking towards the glass jar, seemed to hit something and paused.

An invisible entity was struck and sent flying, directly crashing into the nearby table, shattering it!

"What is that thing!" Zodiac Rabbit instinctively prepared to use Spiritual Suppression to probe what Wu Liang had punched away.

But the next second, she froze.

Even knowing an unseen entity was lying there, her Fierce Ghost Ability still couldn't affect it.
