Horror revival: A ghost call at the beginning!

Although pale, ghostly hands occasionally reached out from the dark greenish-black river, attempting to seize the paper boat and drag it into the depths,

the paper boat remained as steadfast as a rock, unaffected by the frantic grasping of those ghostly hands, which failed to make it budge even a fraction.

Upon closer inspection, three figures could be seen standing on the paper boat.

One of them stood at the bow, skillfully maneuvering the boat through the river with a long bamboo pole in hand.

This person wore a worn-out raincoat and a similarly tattered bamboo hat, presenting the image of a simple and honest old farmer.

Another was a handsome young man with a gentle smile, lightly waving an exquisite paper fan, giving off an air of refined elegance and approachability.

As for the person standing beside the young man, he appeared somewhat peculiar—not a human in the true sense, but a paper figure meticulously crafted from yellow paper.

This paper figure's body was entirely wrapped in tight yellow paper, even its facial features were completely concealed, making it impossible to discern its true face.

It stood there motionless, like a lifeless statue.

Standing before these eerie figures was Liu Quan, the head of Dajiang City, codenamed Smiling Boss.

"What adorable little darlings they are, so terrifying when they get going!"

"I should have known better than to get involved; this kind of situation should have been left to the Minister."

Smiling Boss was dressed in a black suit, looking every bit the successful professional.

However, the bizarre smile on his face made him all the more unsettling.

The more you looked at it, the more your own lips would involuntarily curl into a smile.

And this was the supernatural power Liu Quan wielded: the Ghostly Smiling Face!

It was a puzzle piece of the same type as the Ghostly Smile that Lin Yu had once contained.

Inside the Night Shift Ward, countless eyes were fixed on the outside, belonging to the ghost controllers hospitalized within.

On the third floor, Long Er stood by the window, observing the situation.

"I thought Lin Yu was enough of a monster to be astounding."

"I didn't expect that the younger generation could even control that river!"

The river Long Er referred to was naturally the Ghost River surrounding the Night Shift Ward.

This Ghost River was well-known in the old era, having buried countless vengeful spirits and ghost controllers.

Rumor had it that it was even connected to the River of the Underworld, possibly a tributary.

However, mythology was too fantastical, far less real than vengeful spirits.

This Ghost River was clearly an incredibly terrifying vengeful spirit, and countless people had tried to control it, but all had failed.

Unexpectedly, in the new era, someone had managed to control it.

Such a setup was simply terrifying; without the Night Shift Ward, Long Er wouldn't be confident in defeating them.

After all, just contending with a Ghost River that had buried countless vengeful spirits would be challenging enough.

"Is this the building? The one that can resolve the risk of vengeful spirit resurrections."

The ghost controller dressed as an old farmer, codenamed Ferryman, spoke in a hoarse voice, his gaze fixed on the Night Shift Ward.

"That's right, the organization is very curious about it, and it's worth studying. Otherwise, we wouldn't have dispatched you."

The young man waving the paper fan spoke, his voice gentle and refined. His codename was Paper Man.

"Then take it and leave as soon as possible."

"I've recently heard that a very terrifying Minister has appeared in China, who has resolved several S-class supernatural events since his debut. It's terrifying."

Although the Ferryman said this, he showed no signs of tension.

Because the Ghost River he controlled was comparable to an S-class vengeful spirit.

Moreover, this Ghost River could ignore the boundary between the supernatural and reality, coming and going as it pleased. Even if it encountered an S-class supernatural event, it wouldn't be afraid.

Furthermore, it contained countless buried vengeful spirits, which, once released, could instantly create an S-class supernatural event!

Such a ghost controller far surpassed ordinary captain-level combat power.

At the very least, it would take a captain who controlled an equivalent vengeful spirit to deal with him.

And such a terrifying figure could wreak havoc in China.

Because currently, China had no ghost controller capable of controlling an S-class supernatural event.

Except for Lin Yu.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Ferryman."

Paper Man smiled gently, watching the Ferryman act.

The Ferryman simply shook the bamboo pole in his hand, and the Ghost River began to tremble violently, crushing towards the Night Shift Ward.

At this critical moment, figures appeared out of thin air, blocking the terrifying Ghost River.

These figures were none other than Lin Yu's clones, triggered by the medium!

"The rumors are true; this vengeful spirit has actually been controlled!"

Paper Man was shocked. Seeing so many Lin Yu's appear, he understood that the news propagated by headquarters was not boasting but real!

The extremely terrifying S-class supernatural event, Weeping Angel, had actually been controlled!

It should be known that this S-class supernatural event had been deemed uncontrollable and was released in China.

But unexpectedly, someone was able to control such a vengeful spirit.

Then, the news was as China's headquarters said: China now had its own guardian!

And a guardian who could appear anywhere in China in an instant!

How could they fight against such an existence?

As soon as the thought arose, Paper Man noticed that black rain had begun to fall from the sky.

The rain was as black as ink, emitting a strange smell.

Paper Man also noticed that when the raindrops fell on the paper figure beside him, the lifelike paper figure showed signs of being corroded!

In fact, the paper figure beside Paper Man was a living person.

And he was the head of Dajin City under Lin Yu, Jin Jiajie!

Jin Jiajie unfortunately encountered such terrifying ghost controllers as Ferryman and Paper Man, and had no power to resist. He was captured alive.

He didn't even have time to trigger the medium.

This was the power of top ghost controllers.

Against such ghost controllers, a supernatural attack could end in seconds or even within a second.

Jin Jiajie was defeated in this way, his body covered by Paper Man's countless sheets of paper, depriving him of consciousness and the five senses, becoming a puppet.

But now, with the ink constantly dripping from the sky, this puppet paper figure seemed to show signs of revival.

Paper Man's supernatural power and Ghost Ink's supernatural power were engaged in a supernatural confrontation.

Jin Jiajie, who had been suppressed by Paper Man's supernatural power, now had a slight loosening and immediately began to fight back.

"Such petty tricks, daring to show off before an expert!"

The Ferryman shouted loudly at the sight.

Then, he took off the raincoat and threw it out.

The raincoat grew in the wind, instantly covering the paper boat they were riding and isolating the supernatural erosion of Ghost Ink, briefly creating a safe zone.

And those Ghost Ink, dripping on the Ferryman's raincoat, actually slid down directly, without eroding into the raincoat.
