Wang Xiaoming wants to commit suicide?

Upon hearing Li Jun's words, the others looked at Wang Xiaoming in the crowd with some disbelief.

How could Professor Wang, renowned both domestically and internationally, have suicidal thoughts?

Although these words came from Li Jun, upon closer examination, they are quite plausible.

This Ghost Messenger incident was caused by a failed experiment. Although it happened not long ago, it resulted in the loss of a training base, the death of nearly ten Ghost Tamer, and many staff members being implicated.

Although the number of deaths was not high, the loss of Ghost Tamer was enormous, representing a huge loss.

Was it guilt that led Wang Xiaoming to contemplate suicide?

No wonder he didn't think of leaving when the ghost wandered towards the laboratory; instead, he insisted on staying to resolve the situation.

Perhaps, in his heart, if he couldn't resolve this paranormal event, he'd rather die here.

I thought about it.

Many people could understand it.

"Professor Wang, now is not the time to blame yourself. Many experimental projects still need you to lead. In today's world where paranormal events are becoming increasingly serious, we cannot do without you. Your research on ghost candles and methods for controlling vengeful spirits, as well as the discovery of gold, can be said to have influenced the entire world. If you commit suicide, many more people will die because of your departure." Someone immediately tried to persuade him.

"That's right. Besides, what paranormal event doesn't result in death? And this incident can't be blamed on you. You weren't in the lab when the paranormal event happened. It was purely an accident. Even without the experiment, a ghost would still appear." Zhong Shan nodded.

Others also tried to persuade him.

Whether out of genuine concern or not, they did not want Wang Xiaoming to die.

He's dead. Who will we turn to for the resurrected vengeful spirit? Who will we ask for the ghost candles from next time?

Moreover, he always manages to come up with many useful things, which is a very important safeguard for others.

It's not a big deal if a few Ghost Tamer die, but there's only one Wang Xiaoming. If he dies, it will be a huge loss for everyone.

Li Jun's eyes showed some worry. He knew that what Wang Xiaoming cared about was not this, but that he had forcibly taken Wang Xiaoming away from the laboratory, which caused the paranormal events that could have been contained to be released.

This is the real knot in Wang Xiaoming's heart.

"Regardless, the Captain Plan is underway right now, Professor Wang. This plan you're leading can't just be abandoned halfway through. If you're not in a good mental state, I'll arrange for a psychologist to help you after this matter is resolved. You can't afford to have any problems right now," Jiang Shangbai said, staring at him.

Wang Xiaoming slightly raised his head and slowly said, "My plan will not change. Only I can lure the vengeful ghost back to its coffin. You are not the ghost's target and cannot do this. However, I will make some changes to the plan, but only if you trust me."

"So from now on, you need to stay away from me. I need to be isolated before the next wave of attacks arrives. I don't want to waste any more time."

"Are you in danger?" Li Jun asked gravely.

Wang Xiaoming said, "Would you believe me if I said there was no danger?"

Of course I don't believe it.

This is S-class paranormal event, involving a terrifying and vengeful ghost that cannot be imprisoned. Although Yang Jian forcibly changed the rules of ghosts and weakened their terror, given this situation, if the ghost enters a city, the Dachang City incident will undoubtedly be repeated.

Another city has fallen.

"Judging from your expressions, you don't believe me, but the truth is I'm not in any danger. I've figured out the rules of this ghost so clearly, even a fool would know what to do," Wang Xiaoming said, spreading his hands, seemingly somewhat helpless.

"But if you insist on staying here, my plan will never be able to proceed."

At this moment, Tong Qian said, "That ghost has restarted again. This is the fifth time already, and the sixth wave of attacks is coming soon."

She turned her head, revealing a smiling face, as serene as a dead person, facing the crowd with an indescribable eeriness.

"This is never going to end. This ghost isn't that scary, but it's incredibly difficult to deal with. It keeps making us start over. Is it trying to wear us down to death here?" someone cursed.

"Indeed, so far that ghost hasn't shown anything special." Jiang Shangbai glanced at it, feeling like he was here on vacation, not to deal with a paranormal event.

There was no sense of tension or urgency.

You don't even need to lift a finger; just one person coming into contact with the ghost will cause it to reboot.

However, what they didn't know was that Yang Jian had desperately restricted the ghost's most terrifying abilities; otherwise, they would have definitely regretted participating in this supernatural event.

"Don't waste any more time. Get away from me before the seventh wave of attacks begins," Wang Xiaoming said sternly.

His anxiety stemmed from another concern.

Within this Infinite Restart, unpredictable and terrifying mutations may occur. If that happens, then this operation will become extremely dangerous.

Others might underestimate this paranormal event, but he wouldn't, because it was a terror he created himself.

Li Jun stared at Wang Xiaoming for a moment, unsure whether Wang Xiaoming genuinely wanted to resolve the matter or intended to commit suicide.

After a moment's thought, he finally spoke up, "Let's do as Professor Wang says and leave here for now."

"Since you've made up your mind, I have no choice but to agree to this plan."

No one else objected, since this operation was being commanded by Wang Xiaoming, and it was the best approach.

Soon, the others began to leave Wang Xiaoming's side, leaving only him and a broken ghost coffin in place.

The coffin was damaged because the lid was cracked and could no longer be as perfect as before. No one knows whether this will be a hidden danger.

Although the others hadn't gone far, in this dim environment, even though they were only a few meters apart, it was as if they had vanished. The surroundings were dark and eerie, as if vengeful ghosts might appear at any moment, sending chills down one's spine.

Wang Xiaoming's expression was calm; he seemed to feel no fear whatsoever. He simply stood there quietly waiting, without making any move.

They neither deliberately stepped into the coffin to lure the evil spirits, nor did they prepare ghost candles or make any preparations for possible attacks.

But just because he does nothing doesn't mean nothing will happen around him.

Soon, darkness crept in from one direction, and the already dim surroundings instantly turned pitch black.

It was pitch black, and even sound seemed to be cut off. Even though there were Ghost Tamer standing nearby, their figures had all vanished.

The seventh attack began.

This time was different from before. Wang Xiaoming had no protection at all; he was all alone, completely isolated. There were no ghosts inside him, so if a ghost appeared, it would only come towards him.

Just as planned.

Despite the darkness, Wang Xiaoming remained completely calm, his composure almost frightening, his mental fortitude surpassing even that of some top-tier Ghost Tamer.

Perhaps it's because he's studied paranormal events for many years and has become accustomed to ghosts, or perhaps he's taken a detached view of life and death; someone who doesn't care about life and death naturally won't be afraid.

Wang Xiaoming seemed to be timing it perfectly.

He had been observing the previous attacks, noting the direction the ghost would appear after its reactivation, the time it would appear before everyone, and roughly when it would attack him. This was all data.

The previous restarts had made his data incredibly accurate.

Even with his eyes closed, he knew when the ghost would come to his side.

"They've arrived."

Suddenly, Wang Xiaoming murmured softly in the darkness.

The next moment.

A clear sound of footsteps came from the darkness ahead. The footsteps were stiff and heavy, like a dead person walking in the night.

Only then did Wang Xiaoming begin to act. He took out a box from his person; it was golden and made of gold.

Inside was a rag doll.

It was the substitute doll that Yang Jian had given to Huang Ziya before.

With his authority, he can naturally request to allocate and use this item.

Wang Xiaoming didn't open the box; he simply fired a shot at one spot on it.

"Bang!"

Gunshots rang out, and the not-so-thick box was immediately pierced.

Gunshots?

Upon hearing the gunshot, Li Jun's expression changed drastically in the darkness.

He thought Wang Xiaoming had committed suicide by shooting himself.

"Don't come any closer, I'm fine." However, Wang Xiaoming seemed to have anticipated Li Jun's reaction. His voice came from the darkness, confirming that he was still alive.

Upon hearing this, Li Jun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Xiaoming, who punched through the box, did nothing but drip a few drops of blood into it.

Blood dripped through the opening onto the rag doll inside.

At that moment, footsteps in the darkness were almost upon them.

Wang Xiaoming could even feel the approaching chilling aura nearby, but he remained calm and casually tossed the box in his hand into the coffin beside him.

Immediately.

The approaching, chilling aura in the darkness changed direction, heading towards the ghost coffin.

He used a rag doll to change the target of the vengeful ghost's attack, so he didn't need to lie in the ghost coffin; he could simply use a rag doll instead.

The reason for shooting through the box without releasing the doll was that the doll would run around randomly, affecting the plan. Also, the doll inside the box was less likely to die, since it would take some time for the ghost to enter the box through the bullet hole.

"Thump!"

A dull thud came from nearby, as if something was hitting the coffin next to it.

"Has the vengeful ghost returned to its coffin?" Wang Xiaoming's eyes flickered slightly.

He knew his plan had succeeded.

However, he wasn't sure if the plan would work, since the ghost was different from before and had undergone several mutations. Whether returning to the coffin would resolve the paranormal event was still unknown.

However, the situation seems to be better than expected.

The dense darkness surrounding them was beginning to dissipate, and the Ghost Domain seemed to be disappearing.

"It succeeded?" Feng Quan, who was the first to react, was immediately stunned.

This scene is exactly the same as the Huanggang Village incident.

As darkness receded, the surroundings gradually brightened.

"No way, Professor Wang solved this paranormal incident all by himself?" A Ghost Tamer named Cao Yang was dumbfounded.
