Ghost Compendium
Chapter 283 279: Setting Wolves on Tigers! Battling Evil with Evil!
"Yes! I'll go notify them right away!"
The agent couldn't help but beam with joy upon hearing Wu Liang's plan to lead them back to the Promised Land.
He almost tumbled and scrambled down the mountain to deliver the news, completely forgetting he could use the phone to communicate.
Seeing him in such a state, Ah Yimu, who just walked out from the cave, sighed and said, "Phew... You're finally back. If you hadn't come back in a few days, they might have snuck into the Capital City."
"Heh, you must find a way to keep them in check, can't rely solely on the Tower Ghost I left behind." Wu Liang said with a somewhat helpless smile.
But Ah Yimu shrugged even more helplessly, "I neither have any Supernatural Objects nor are my Awakened Abilities useful, how could I stop them?"
Hearing her self-deprecating description, Wu Liang retorted, "Who said your Awakened Ability is useless? I really need your Awakened Ability right now."
With that, Wu Liang waved his hand broadly.
Immediately, the Lego bricks forming the Tower Ghost appeared on the ground, and a human head rolled out from the building's doorway to Ah Yimu's feet.
Suppressing the visual shock brought by the head, Ah Yimu trembled as she asked, "What... are you planning to do?"
She had naturally seen the previous news broadcast and immediately recognized that it was the head of the Pioneer.
But couldn't understand why Wu Liang was bringing out the opponent's head now?
"Look carefully, is the soul of the body's original owner still inside his head?" Wu Liang whispered softly into her ear.
A glint of brilliance flashed in his eyes.
The Ghost Compendium inside his brain rapidly flipped through, beginning a certain degree of modifications to reality.
The next second, a soul identical in appearance to the head suddenly appeared in Ah Yimu's eyes.
"Ah! This... I..."
"Don't be nervous, his current state is just like when my mom's soul was sealed in the Obsidian Necklace, only you can see and communicate with it." Wu Liang, knowing she had already discovered the soul, calmly said, "Can you ask for me what the Pioneer plans to do with his body?"
Upon hearing his words, Ah Yimu's face went pale as she stammered out her inquiry to the soul.
She had expected this process to be quite difficult.
However, the soul of the original body became agitated upon hearing and revealed everything he knew.
It was evident how much the original owner hated the Pioneer for occupying his body and depriving him of his consciousness.
Seeing this, Wu Liang couldn't help but show a trace of satisfaction.
This modification proved his further mastery over the Ghost Compendium's abilities.
Originally, this head was closely linked to the Pioneer, making any modification directly to it impossible.
But now, he merely summoned the original soul without targeting the head itself for modifications, satisfying the conditions of Ah Yimu's Awakened Ability so she could communicate, even Wu Liang himself couldn't see the original soul.
After taking a roundabout way, the cost became almost negligible!
Moments later, Ah Yimu raised her head seriously and spoke to Wu Liang, "He said... the Pioneer plans to completely imbue his consciousness into this body, letting it become his own."
At this, Ah Yimu was also somewhat puzzled.
Why would anyone want to completely transfer their soul into someone else's body?
Even if the two bodies were extremely compatible, there would likely still be some rejection reactions.
"Oh, and he also said he's Yin Qiming's cousin, called Yin Hao." Ah Yimu added.
"I see, now I understand."
Upon hearing about the head's familial relation to Yin Qiming, Wu Liang immediately understood why the other party would go to such lengths with this body.
This thing was his way to resolve the issue of having two different consciousnesses in his mind!
The last time in the Tianshan Mountain Range, Wu Liang confirmed the Pioneer had two self-consciousnesses within, similar to Yao Qingxue, and his current approach was akin to how his mom split herself into Sealed Yao Qingxue and Commoner Yao Qingxue.
However, unable to do like Yao Qingxue and divide space and time to create two bodies from thin air.
So he chose a body with a familial relation to himself, minimizing rejection reactions.
In other words, his action this time not only severely worsened the Pioneer but also disrupted his progress toward a unified consciousness, forcing him to continue being tormented by two minds?
"Hahahahahahaha, what a pleasant surprise! Come on, let's go to the stage." Wu Liang couldn't help but laugh heartily.
He then led Ah Yimu to the podium in Village Two.
By this time, most of the Ghost Valley's old members had already gathered below, awaiting Wu Liang's command to return to the Capital for a grand showdown!
Seeing the anticipation in everyone's eyes, Wu Liang began, "You should all have seen the news and know the outcome of my battle with the Pioneer, right?"
This statement ignited a spark of passion in everyone's eyes.
They certainly saw it!
"Then you should also know I've officially been recognized by authorities as a Supernatural Calamity, which means Ghost Valley's teacher's mission is almost achieved!" Wu Liang declared passionately.
"Now, I need you to head to the Capital, Shenhu City, Wuyun City, Guangning City... and all other cities where Promised Land members reside, contact them and spread the word about the Pioneer's acts of betrayal after crossing the bridge."
"Do your utmost to shake the trust other Promised Land members have in the Pioneer!"
"This will become a crucial part of reclaiming our organization!"
Upon hearing Wu Liang's orders, the Ghost Valley old members, already filled with hatred toward the Pioneer, cheered joyfully from below.
They were finally going to reclaim their organization!
At this moment, the agent who had been at the entrance of Ah Yimu's cave earlier spoke to Wu Liang, "Mr. Mask, if we encounter the Pioneer's loyalists who will undoubtedly prevent our actions, how should we respond?"
Certainly, as Mr. Ghost Valley could command loyal followers like them, the Pioneer naturally had quite a few die-hard supporters.
This was the greatest obstacle in ousting the Pioneer!
Upon hearing this question, Wu Liang's face behind the mask couldn't help but smile more wickedly.
He intended to tell these Ghost Valley old members what to do when encountering this group of loyalists, unexpectedly perfect timing!
Thus he cruelly said, "Loyalists? Then let them prove their loyalty with death!"
"Those brainwashed by the Pioneer have completely forgotten our faith, their allegiance cannot lead humanity to the Land of Milk and Honey!"
Internal slaughter? Undercover drama?
Such descriptions are inconsequential.
Wu Liang would certainly not forget that these Ghost Valley old members were fundamentally adversaries as well.
Their internal battles with Promised Land members, regardless of the extent of casualties caused, would have no psychological burden for Wu Liang.
It's just dog-eat-dog.
Only that one rabid dog was released by his own hands...
