Chapter 241 It’s very simple, can’t I just become an outlier?
Cao Yang's perspective now is very strange. He feels that he has merged with the entire memory world and can peek into every corner here. As long as certain conditions are met, he can even appear anywhere at will.
However, the next second, this condition was triggered, and Cao Yang's figure instantly disappeared from the spot and appeared next to Lin Ye.
Lin Ye recalled the image of the mutated Cao Yang, triggering the rules of the memory ghost. The index of the last piece of the puzzle made him appear instantly. Only this last piece of the puzzle was missing, and the memory ghost would become a truly complete ghost.
"ghost?!"
Zhou Deng jumped three feet high in an instant. The sudden danger made him go crazy. His sixth sense told him that he must get away from here immediately.
Danger, extremely dangerous!
Even though he was just a person painted with ghost makeup, his consciousness was real, and the fear that made his scalp tingle and his blood freeze was also real.
"Zhou Deng?"
Unexpectedly, the ghost actually spoke. Zhou Deng then noticed that this ghost looked exactly like Captain Cao Yang, but there was one difference. This Cao Yang's face was printed on a piece of black cloth, while Cao Yang looked like a normal person when they first met.
"Captain Cao, how did you get into this state?"
Zhou Deng suppressed the hint of his sixth sense ghost and asked doubtfully.
"Something is wrong with your condition. I'm curious, you are not Zhou Deng, or rather, you are not the real Zhou Deng."
Cao Yang's expression changed slightly, and he spoke with some vigilance and caution.
"Oh, Captain Cao's vision is still as vicious as ever."
Zhou Deng grinned, and his facial features and skin were collapsing and distorting rapidly. No, not only his face, but Zhou Deng's entire body was also changing. You know, this is the memory world, which is isolated from the supernatural.
Soon, a charming beauty appeared. It was Ah Hong, the person in charge of Dasu City.
"It seems that you are on the right track. Time flies."
Ah Hong smiled brightly, as if she had seen through Cao Yang's current situation.
"I remember when I first met you, you were still worried about the balance of evil spirits. I didn't expect it would come to that now. But I'm curious, how are you going to deal with this situation now?"
Cao Yang had no expression on his face. After a long silence, he slowly spoke:
"It's very simple. Can't I just become an alien?"
He was certainly not joking or talking nonsense. In the current deadlock, as long as he became an alien with the memory ghost as the core, everything would be solved. It was indeed a very simple solution.
"But I see that things aren't going well for you, so why not let me give you a hand."
Ah Hong smiled slightly, and the body immediately melted completely, collapsing into a pool of dark paint. The paint moved on its own and smeared onto Cao Yang's face. He did not stop it, nor could he stop it, so he could only let the paint smear onto his face.
Soon, another face appeared. This face was stiff and weird, revealing a lifeless feeling.
"This face will help maintain your consciousness in the last moment, but it only lasts a moment. Seize the opportunity. If you fail, I'm afraid I can only draw you when I miss you in the future."
Ah Hong's voice rang in Cao Yang's ears. The girl's soft whisper did not stir up any ripples in his heart, because Cao Yang now could no longer be called a human being. He was just a consciousness that had returned to life through a corpse, nothing more.
The ringing of the phone still echoed in his mind like a life-threatening sound, and Lin Ye was also suffering the same pain. Veins bulged on his forehead and cold sweat had already soaked his clothes.
The memory world is like a huge meat grinder. Ordinary people have no way to survive here. As long as they have seen Cao Yang once, his image will be deeply engraved in the memories of these people and cannot be erased, because this is a spiritual invasion that ordinary people cannot resist.
At the junction of the ghost world and reality, Li Jun was at a loss. His will-o'-the-wisp could ignite the surrounding area, but ordinary people would also be burned to death by the will-o'-the-wisp because they were already infected with the supernatural.
A rusty old-fashioned dial phone appeared out of nowhere in front of Cao Yang. It was the metal microphone that was vibrating and making that heart-stirring ringtone.
"Lin Ye, answer the phone with me."
In any case, the situation would not get worse, Cao Yang did not mind taking another call. And since this call could anchor him, he should always seize this opportunity.
So, the two of them reached out their hands at the same time and took off the cold and gloomy microphone.
"rustle--!"
No one was talking on the phone, but there was a sound of electric current.
"The phone call is not the key. What's important is that I need to transfer my consciousness to the part of the puzzle that Lin Ye is controlling, and then control the complete memory ghost. During the process, I must ensure that my consciousness is always present and in control."
In Guangling City, after Xiang Shengnian struck three times with his sword, Qianye finally succeeded in making a phone call. However, this was the first time the phone was used, and even he was not sure what the result would be.
"rustle--!"
Just like Cao Yang's side, there was only the sound of electricity coming from the microphone, and no sound of anyone talking.
"Mr. Cao?"
Chiba asked tentatively, not knowing whether his voice could be transmitted.
In fact, Cao Yang can now be called an alien, but he is unable to maintain his consciousness through the supernatural powers he possesses, so at present he can only be called a temporary account, and will soon be forced to go offline.
“What would happen if I recalled my own image in my current body?”
Cao Yang was thinking. Being an alien was easy to say. All he had to do was implant his consciousness into the body of the evil spirit and take full control.
But in practice, it is extremely difficult. Luck, planning, and preparation are all indispensable.
At the same time, Cao Yang was also examining himself. The memory ghost now did not seem pure, and seemed to be mixed with other supernatural elements.
"It's impossible for the Ghost Peddler to win Zhangdong. If the Ghost Peddler took over the Memory Ghost after my death and invaded through the connection I created by tracking the supernatural before it was erased, then this would explain it."
"The core of the Ghost Peddler's magic is trading, and it is a forced trade with unfair terms. Maybe now I can also use the magic of this trade to do something."
Qianye's voice came from the microphone, but Cao Yang ignored it, as if he didn't hear it.
"Forced trading means risking a lot with a small investment, with low cost and high return. This is a bug in itself. The stronger the spirit, the greater the cost."
Suddenly, inspiration struck, and Cao Yang understood how he should trade.
"With a small investment, I will definitely be the final winner of this game."
The lamp of life has become very dim, with only a small flame still burning, and it will not be long before it is completely extinguished.
"Qianye, no matter what method you use, make sure this call remains connected. If you can't hold on any longer, ask the headquarters to replace the captain. If the call is disconnected, I will definitely die!"
