Twisted Dreams-Chapter 28 - 26: Creating Undead

Li Yang lifted his leg and walked towards the place where the body was stored.

It was at a dirt mound in the center of the cemetery. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Following the arcane memory in his mind, Li Yang began to prepare the ritual for creating undead.

He drew an array nearby, chanting enigmatic spells, which echoed through the dark cemetery like whispers of the undead.

The wind rose in the cemetery, and Yin Qi surged towards the dirt mound.

An invisible sense of oppression swept over, making one’s heart clench, afraid to breathe deeply.

Sounds came from within the dirt mound, like knocking, pounding the coffin boards one by one.

At this moment, cracks began to appear on the dirt mound.

"Crack."

A pale hand, covered in wood shavings, broke through the earth.

Just then, Li Yang’s ears twitched, and he looked back, his sharp gaze piercing the darkness.

Someone had arrived.

Li Yang squinted his eyes, then a faint smile crossed his lips as he patted the crow’s head:

"Go find Su Yutang."

The crow spread its wings and flew towards the city, leaving a shadow under the moonlight.

Li Yang walked towards the depths of the cemetery, his straight figure disappearing into the darkness.

The dirt mound continued to crack, and a terrifying undead was about to be born.

....

"Everyone, look, this is the location for tonight’s live stream.

The North City Suburban Cemetery, the place with the heaviest Yin Qi and the most ominous in the South Sea!"

A man and a woman stood outside the North City Suburban Cemetery.

One of them was carrying a camera, filming the eerie cemetery.

The woman held a microphone, live streaming.

A name tag hung on the female streamer’s chest, reading ’Da Jun Culture Co., Ltd.’

She was a small streamer working under Zhu Dajun.

Although Da Jun Culture Co., Ltd. was just a company Zhu Dajun placed on the surface to cover his true business, it was definitely not an empty shell company.

Da Jun Culture had office buildings and mainly reported on social customs, livelihood, and positive energy.

Zhu Dajun’s public persona was that of a genuine media businessman.

"Fighting against feudal superstitions starts with me.

Tonight, Lele will temporarily become a ghost-hunting streamer and take everyone to see the rumored scariest North City Suburban Cemetery.

I will show everyone that there are no ghosts in this world at all."

As the female streamer finished speaking, the cameraman cooperatively panned the camera over the North City Suburban Cemetery, providing a close-up of the dirt mound.

Perhaps the gimmick of the North City Suburban Cemetery was too eye-catching, causing the audience in the live room to suddenly increase dramatically.

Gaining hundreds at a time.

The female streamer was thrilled.

Her performance in the company had always been at the bottom, and at this rate, she would soon be out of work.

So, she took a bold step, coming to the cemetery to live stream.

Since she was a child, she had always been brave.

She looked down on those who were afraid of ghosts; how could there be ghosts in this world?

[The female streamer is quite good-looking.]

[Streamer, I advise you not to mess around, this place is very ominous. I was bitten to death by a zombie here when I was a child.]

[I suspect there will be a live event tonight, and soon the streamer will hire actors to pretend to be ghosts to scare people.]

The female streamer quickly said:

"Everyone, rest assured, tonight’s live stream is absolutely real.

Look at the live room name, Da Jun Culture - Positive Energy Lele.

The main purpose tonight is to combat feudal superstition.

Not much to say; let’s go see what’s going on with the North City Suburban Cemetery."

The female streamer signaled to the cameraman, and the two of them headed towards the cemetery.

She pointed to a patch of woods:

"Many people say they’ve encountered ghosts here.

Those are rumors without scientific basis!

But here I am standing, why don’t the ghosts come to me?

Since they don’t dare to seek me, but I dare to seek them!

Let’s go, into the woods, and take them on!"

"Holy shit!"

The female streamer was passionately speaking to the camera when suddenly the cameraman shouted.

The female streamer and the audience in the live room were startled by this shout.

The live room exploded.

[Gave me a scare; freaking out in the dead of night is enough to kill!]

[See, see, I’m telling you there’s a script, right?]

[Looks like the actor is about to appear, huh?]

[Hurry up, let the actor dressed as a ghost come out, bro wants to see if this ghost is handsome.]

The female streamer glared at the cameraman:

"What is it with you?"

They hadn’t planned on using a script this time, so there was no part where the cameraman would create panic by making a fuss!

The cameraman pointed shakily to the side:

"Look over there!"

The female streamer followed the cameraman’s finger, and her pupils suddenly shrank.

About a hundred meters away stood a man with his back to them.

He stood rigidly, twitching every now and then.

In the dead of night, it was a bit creepy.

The female streamer glanced at the live room.

[That guy is quite dedicated!]

[The twitching is very rhythmic.]

[Late at night, it’s such a show!]

The female streamer explained:

"That’s not one of our actors, I promise!

There are many villages in the North City Suburbs, and there might be some unique customs.

Like performing midnight rituals for family or something.

The female streamer pondered for a moment and then reflected:

"Or maybe they dreamed of family and friends from another world, so they got up to take a look.

The ghosts everyone fears are these people longs for day and night!

At any rate, we’re fated with that gentleman; I wonder if he’d be willing to give us an interview."

After saying this, the female streamer signaled to the cameraman to follow.

The cameraman hesitated and whispered:

"Lele, isn’t this going too far?

If that person looks abnormal, what if he’s a violent psychopath? It’s too dangerous!"

The female streamer whispered:

"If we don’t do the interview, people will think we have a script!

Look at the live room, it’s so hard to get so many viewers.

Why did we come here in the middle of the night?

You don’t want all our effort to go to waste, right?"

The cameraman hesitated.

The female streamer looked at the cameraman with disdain:

"You aren’t scared, thinking there are ghosts, right?"

The cameraman gritted his teeth: "Scared of nothing, there are no ghosts in this world? Let’s go!"

The two walked one after the other, with thousands of bystanders in the live room.

The female streamer walked up behind the strange man and greeted him warmly:

"Hello sir, sorry to bother you.

We’re doing a live stream; would it be convenient for us to ask you a few questions?"

The person slowly turned his head, revealing a terrifyingly pale face with empty, hollow eyes.

He didn’t speak, just stood there blankly, occasionally twitching.

The live room barrage once again exploded.

[Damn, that’s frigging creepy, the makeup invested a lot!]

[Jeez, this actor doesn’t look like he’s acting at all; scared the hell out of me.]

[In light of the actor’s dedication, I take back what I said; it’s all just a means to entertain me.]

The female streamer was quite scared herself, immediately glaring at the cameraman.

She suspected the cameraman had acted on his own to really find an actor!

After all, he was the first to discover this strange guy.

The cameraman’s expression gradually turned to terror, his legs beginning to tremble.

The live room also exploded.

[Holy fuck, is this a special effect??]

[Special effect my ass, this doesn’t look fake at all!]

[Should we call the police for this situation?!]

The female streamer turned her head in confusion, her mouth gradually widening.

The scene in front of her felt like a lightning strike, causing the microphone to slip and fall to the ground.

That strange man, or rather, that monster.

The monster’s body shook slowly, its joints twisting unnaturally, resembling an eerie mechanical dance.

Ribs protruded from beneath its skin, growing larger.

As if a hand was stretching it, the monster gradually grew to nearly three meters tall!

It slowly opened its mouth, tearing the flesh until the corners of its ears, showing several strands of bloody saliva.

"Roar!!!!"

A dry, monstrous roar nearly frightened the female streamer’s soul out of her body!
