Jiang Ning touched her face.
As time passed, this face looked more and more like Jiang Ning’s old face. The skin was pale, and the overall contours hadn’t changed much, but her aura had become much colder, inexplicably frightening to look at for too long.
She thought about it and decided to go take a look. So, she spent some Heartbeat Points to get herself a scary mask.
With this mask, anyone who saw her would feel she had a powerful aura and was an unbeatable ghost. It should be able to scare a few more humans.
Jiang Ning went out wearing the mask, and the two people in the office were unaware.
The ghost’s hunting game had been going on for over half an hour.
Most people were exhausted, trembling in dark corners, terrified that something would crawl out from somewhere.
Jiang Shu was hiding in a dark corner.
He had been pampered since childhood and hadn’t suffered any hardships, growing up in a honey pot. He thought meeting a Jiang Ning who attempted to replace his sister was the biggest setback in his life.
But this Urban Legend made him recognize reality.
Compared to dying at the hands of these ghosts, what was a switch at birth? And he wasn’t the one switched! His sister still had him.
He felt aggrieved and sad right now, not knowing whom to blame.
Why did I come here? Why didn’t I stay home properly?
Even sitting on the same chair as Jiang Ning is better than staying in this hellhole.
Jiang Shu’s mind was a mess. Thinking of his sister Jiang Yu, he immediately thought of his brother-in-law Fu Zhao.
He thought with a tiny glimmer of hope, Fu Zhao is a powerful Awakened; he should be able to save me, right? Sister won’t ignore me.
But… can I wait until Brother-in-law comes to save me?
Jiang Shu felt despair. Maybe I can—
Suddenly, footsteps sounded in the quiet corridor.
Thump, thump, thump…
The unknown darkness was the most terrifying.
No one knew what invisible thing would reach out from the night to drag people into the abyss.
The sound got closer and closer to Jiang Shu’s direction.
Jiang Shu swallowed, and a wave of fear swept over him.
A cool breeze mixed with the smell of blood blew gently, slowly creeping up Jiang Shu’s spine, making him cold and numb, daring not to move.
Jiang Ning saw Jiang Shu.
Along the way, many people provided Heartbeat Points to Jiang Ning, but Jiang Shu gave the most.
[ Heartbeat Points +3689 ]
[ Heartbeat Points +3289 ]
[ Heartbeat Points +4369 ]
It was obvious that this young master, who had always been proud and arrogant, was scared witless right now.
If Jiang Ning deliberately scared him again, he might faint directly.
Jiang Ning watched him quietly for a while.
This pressure on Jiang Shu was immense.
He knew he had been discovered.
What to do?
Jiang Ning stopped looking at Jiang Shu; she was observing the Wuyi energy on him.
This Wuyi energy still clung to Jiang Shu, occasionally nibbling at his ear.
Seeing Jiang Ning looking at it, it shrank back in fear, then tried hard to squeeze out a fawning smile at her.
The Wuyi energy had no consciousness, but it had plenty of survival instincts. Sensing Jiang Ning was a threat, it acted extra obediently.
It could not only stimulate Jiang Shu’s anger but also his fear.
In other words, as long as it wanted, it could manipulate Jiang Shu’s emotions.
However, it didn’t like doing thankless tasks; at most, it liked fanning the flames.
This thing was useless in the Survival Game, but now that Jiang Ning planned to build a dungeon in the real world herself, it could come in handy.
With a thought, Jiang Ning used the blindness and hierarchy of this Urban Legend to summon the nearest ghost.
“Dr. Jiang.”
A ghost with a pig head and big ears leaned close to Jiang Ning, smiling ingratiatingly.
Completely failing to see that Jiang Ning was human, it said respectfully, “Dr. Jiang, is there anything you need me to do?”
Jiang Ning pointed at the Wuyi on Jiang Shu. “Take it, and come upstairs with me to have a look.”
This building had five floors in total.
“Okay.”
Wuyi couldn’t exist independently from a human body for too long, so the Pig Head Ghost simply picked Jiang Shu up like a chick, completely disregarding Jiang Shu’s psychological feelings.
“Let me go.”
Jiang Shu struggled, but his skin was corroded by the venom on the Pig Head Ghost, burning with pain, almost exposing the bone. He became obedient.
There were a few people hiding upstairs too.
After thinking about it, Jiang Ning had the Pig Head Ghost capture everyone in the same way.
Half an hour later, some ghosts realized that all the humans here had gone to Jiang Ning.
How can this be tolerated?!
Humans belong to everyone; how can Jiang Ning swallow them all alone?
The cafeteria lady was called up from the basement by a complaining ghost. She was the first to stand up against the tyranny. “Dr. Jiang, you took everyone away. What do we eat? You are too greedy!”
“You’re just one ghost; you can’t eat so many.”
Other ghosts were afraid of Jiang Ning, but the cafeteria lady wasn’t. She was of the same rank as Jiang Ning!
Although Jiang Ning looked stronger than her now, the cafeteria lady didn’t believe Jiang Ning could be much stronger. The Urban Legend would never allow Dr. Jiang to be too much stronger than herself.
Jiang Ning looked at the cafeteria lady, recalling what happened at noon. “You seem to have another human there, right?”
The cafeteria lady’s throat felt like it was choked; she couldn’t say a word.
“That’s mine!” she shouted angrily. The whole ghost became agitated, eyes turning red, teeth becoming sharp, looking as if she would perish together with Jiang Ning if she tried to snatch it.
Jiang Ning was confused. “Why are you angry? I’m not snatching yours.”
You call this not snatching?!
Even though the cafeteria lady didn’t have much of a brain, she was shaking with anger at Jiang Ning’s words.
She snatched all the humans away. How dare she say she’s not snatching?!
She had just taken a few extra licks of the human she caught in the basement, and when she came up, she found all the food in the “hunting ground” had been taken away by one person!
This is called—not snatching?
[ Heartbeat Points +10396 ]
[ Heartbeat Points +12345 ]
[ Heartbeat Points +13598 ]
Jiang Ning had somehow lain down on a chair, holding a peeled walnut in her hand. “If you’re not willing, then forget it.”
The cafeteria lady was furious. This was unbearable! She reverted directly to her original form, turning into a ghost over two meters tall, filling the corridor instantly, vowing to teach Jiang Ning a lesson.
A foul stench spread through the corridor, like smelly socks fermented for a year, enough to make people vomit up their New Year’s Eve dinner.
Several people couldn’t help but dry heave on the spot.
Jiang Ning immediately blocked her sense of smell.
Someone whispered, “Why is this ghost so unhygienic?”
Cafeteria Lady: “?”
Do you humans want to hear what you are saying?
Does a ghost need to be hygienic?
Eating you all without leaving a crumb is the best display of hygiene!
“Don’t go too far!”
The cafeteria lady roared, glared viciously at the human who spoke, and attacked Jiang Ning.
Once I deal with Jiang Ning, I’ll deal with you humans!
