Awakening Dual Companion Ghosts

His second resurrection.

Xin Yang woke up quickly!

The first thing he did after opening his eyes was look at his left hand, only to find that it had been restored completely intact.

"This cheat is kind of interesting."

He had cut off his own hand and fed it to the Candy-Buying Ghost earlier precisely to test this cheat.

(Please remember, Taiwan Novel Network has a huge collection of books. 🅣🅦🅚🅐🅝.🅒🅞🅜 is a super convenient website with the fastest chapter updates.)

Now that he had gotten the answer he wanted, he did not wish to waste any more time. A twisted smile hung on his face.

"Kid, big brother's getting a little sleepy."

"Hurry up and ask big brother again whether I can buy candy for you."

By now, the Candy-Buying Ghost had realized that this man was no ordinary person.

But it still had no way to do anything.

It was merely a first-tier Calamity Ghost meant for people to kill and awaken from.

The weakest kind of ghost.

It could only bite the bullet and speak again.

"Big brother, can you buy candy for me?"

"Of course!"

Xin Yang pulled the last Heart Candy from his pants pocket.

"This candy was accidentally squashed flat by big brother, but it's still edible. Hurry up and eat it."

After the Candy-Buying Ghost ate the third Heart Candy.

Xin Yang's consciousness fell into darkness again.

[You have been killed by the Candy-Buying Ghost. Extracting a random reward from the target.]

[Obtained ghost skill: Candy Buying]

[You have been killed by the Candy-Buying Ghost three times. Further deaths at the hands of the Candy-Buying Ghost will not yield rewards.]

Three seconds later, Xin Yang climbed up from the ground and dusted off his butt.

Xin Yang picked up the Candy-Buying Ghost and let it sit on his lap.

From afar, it looked like a doting father chatting and playing with a child.

Xin Yang stretched out his hand and pinched the Candy-Buying Ghost's cheeks again.

"Big brother will give you a pretty nose!"

"You look way too ugly without a nose."

Then he picked up his knife and viciously jabbed two holes into the Candy-Buying Ghost's face with its tip.

The Candy-Buying Ghost's eyes could not shed tears. It could only feel Xin Yang's cruelty.

After he finished stabbing it, Xin Yang looked as though he were admiring a sculpture he had made.

He nodded with a face full of satisfaction.

Not long afterward, his mood suddenly seemed to change completely. He raised the knife and chopped at the Candy-Buying Ghost again and again. After more than ten minutes of chopping, its face was no longer recognizable.

Yet the Candy-Buying Ghost still had not died.

At this moment, the Candy-Buying Ghost was like a pitiful child, curled up in the corner of the space and trembling violently.

In its heart, Xin Yang was no different from a demon.

Xin Yang went back to the convenience store and asked the Ratman.

"Boss, why won't the Candy-Buying Ghost die?"

The Ratman answered seriously.

"Hello, customer. To kill a ghost, you can only use ghost-killing techniques, ghost items, curse abilities, or ghost skills."

Xin Yang nodded thoughtfully.

"Do you sell any ghost items that can kill that ghost child?"

"Yes, customer. My Corpse-Oil Lighters use premium corpse oil extracted from hundred-year-old rotting corpses. As long as you have enough of them, you can burn the Candy-Buying Ghost to death."

"Give me twenty!!!"

"Certainly, customer. Twenty Corpse-Oil Lighters cost twenty days of lifespan."

After getting the lighters.

The Corpse-Oil Lighter's information entered Xin Yang's mind as well.

[Corpse-Oil Lighter: Can inflict minor damage on first-tier Calamity Ghosts.]

Seeing Xin Yang walk toward it with Corpse-Oil Lighters in hand.

The Candy-Buying Ghost began flailing about in panic.

Very soon, Xin Yang arrived before the Candy-Buying Ghost.

He looked at it with an indulgent gaze.

"Big brother's here to fix your teeth."

Then Xin Yang began stuffing the Corpse-Oil Lighters into the Candy-Buying Ghost's mouth one by one.

The Candy-Buying Ghost would never forget what Xin Yang looked like at that moment.

There was a touch of joy amid his sorrow, a flicker of cruelty within his gentleness, and a kind of resolve revealed through his confusion. He was like a madman, like one deranged; seeming to cry but not cry, seeming to smile but not smile. His features suddenly twisted together before abruptly returning to normal, then suddenly twisting again...

The Candy-Buying Ghost's mouth was soon packed full of Corpse-Oil Lighters.

It struggled without pause, resisting without pause.

But every bit of resistance was futile.

With two Corpse-Oil Lighters left, Xin Yang cracked one open and poured its corpse oil over the lighters inside the Candy-Buying Ghost's mouth.

Then he leaned close to the Candy-Buying Ghost's ear and whispered in that low, charming voice.

"It's okay, baby!

"Big brother will cure you very soon."

"Don't be afraid..."

"Close your eyes. It'll be over soon!!!"

Then Xin Yang held down the Candy-Buying Ghost's head with his left hand and lit the fire with his right.

With a bang—

The Corpse-Oil Lighters exploded inside the Candy-Buying Ghost's mouth.

The intense agony made it howl miserably.

The entire space echoed with the Candy-Buying Ghost's unending cries of pain!

Before long, the Candy-Buying Ghost's body began to melt. It was as though sulfuric acid had been poured over it, accompanied by a choking stench.

When the Candy-Buying Ghost had completely dissolved.

Information about his awakening surfaced in his mind.

[You have killed the Candy-Buying Ghost.]

[Current level: First-tier Calamity Ghost.]

[Companion Ghost awakened.]

[Companion Ghost: Little Black Ball.]

[Serial number unknown.]

[Companion Ghost awakened.]

[Companion Ghost: Dreamsource Ghost.]

[Serial number: 908.]

[Obtained ghost skill: Dream Origin.]

[Dreamsource Ghost Skill Analysis: Can create an illusionary realm to briefly confuse ghosts or humans. The contents created and the duration of the ghost skill are tied to the Companion Ghost's strength.]

[Obtained SR-quality curse ability: Dream Slumber.]

[Dream Slumber Curse Ability Analysis: Slowly increases the Companion Ghost's strength while sleeping.]

Xin Yang looked at the Little Black Ball flying around his left hand.

The other Companion Ghost looked like Bing Dwen Dwen from Earth.

A tiny, round little thing.

"Dual Companion Ghosts... this world is getting more and more fun!"

After pondering for a moment, "big brother" let out such a sigh.

When Xin Yang opened his eyes again.

He found that the convenience store in this space.

As well as that Candy-Buying Ghost, had vanished.

Only a few scattered chunks of flesh remained by his feet.

He then spent several minutes learning about the two Companion Ghosts "he" had awakened after killing the Candy-Buying Ghost.

A warm white door of light stood ahead to his right.

"Looks like big brother has already taken care of everything."

Xin Yang headed toward the door of light.

What he did not know was that from this day onward—

Wu City's artificial ghost: the Candy-Buying Ghost.

Would never speak again.

Nor would it ask anyone whether they could buy candy for it.

It would even tremble in fear whenever it saw a male human who had come to awaken.

Its mouth would remain tightly shut forever.

This also became one of Wu City's unsolved mysteries for decades to come.

Upon returning to the Trial Hall.

A broadcast rang out beside his ears.

[Xin Yang of Class 76, Wucheng No. 2 High School, has completed his awakening.]

[Awakened ghost: Dreamsource Ghost.]

[Serial number: 908.]

[Xin Yang of Class 76, Wucheng No. 2 High School, has completed his awakening.]

[Awakened ghost: Dreamsource Ghost.]

[Serial number: 908.]

The broadcast repeated ten times.

All the other members of Class 76 in the A2 Trial Hall fell collectively silent for a moment.

Holy shit!

Hiss—every student sucked in a sharp breath.

Then a wave of thunderous cheers suddenly erupted!

All the students from Class 76 surged toward Xin Yang.

"That's fucking awesome, Brother Yang!"

"The Companion Ghost Wang Fei has been dreaming about day and night—you got it, Brother Yang!"

"Xin Yang, this is way too absurd!"

"Mom, my ears must be broken."

"God Yang, invincible!"

"Brother Yang, I want to be your bootlicker."

"Liu Ming, get lost. Brother Yang doesn't like men."

Xin Yang's eyes were as wide as brass bells at this point.

He had already guessed that he might attract attention.

But he had arrived in this world less than a day ago, so he had not realized what kind of concept a Companion Ghost with serial number 908 represented.

The entire Class 76 enthusiastically shoved Xin Yang around.

At times, he even accidentally brushed against the softness of female classmates.

Xin Yang thought, Don't stop! Don't stop!

Just as Xin Yang was still enjoying this "special treatment."

The crowd was suddenly dispersed.

Xin Yang muttered inwardly, Who's so blind to the situation?

Can't you see your Uncle Yang is having a great time playing with his classmates?

This was the first time in two lifetimes that he had enjoyed such treatment.

Why ruin such harmonious classmate relations?

He turned around and looked.

It was the counselor.

He could only swallow down the rage filling his stomach.

The counselor walked up to Xin Yang and loudly rebuked the other students.

"Students, I know everyone is happy. But even when we celebrate, we need to pay attention to the occasion. This is Wu City's Trial Hall."

"There are still students from other classes waiting to awaken."

"Once we return to our classroom at school, I'll hold a celebration meeting for everyone."

"Now, all students, line up and return to school!"

All the students of Class 76 shouted in unison.

"Yes, Teacher!"

P.S. Brothers reading through other channels, if you spot typos, you can come to Qidian and let me know. After all, I started writing two books at the same time, so sometimes I mix up the characters' names between the two books...

Brothers, please give me monthly tickets, investments, recommendation tickets, and bookmarks!
