Full text., the fastest update of the latest chapters of Horror Resurgence!

What is the most serious thing right now?

There is no doubt that there is only one thing.

It's getting dark in Dachang City~!

Clearly it's daytime, it's already eight o'clock, but Dachang City is still shrouded in darkness. The gloom that envelops the city shows no signs of dissipating. If you don't look at the time, you would think it's still around one or two o'clock at night.

"The situation is more serious than I imagined. It's no longer just a simple supernatural event. It is very likely to be a major disaster." Yang Jian's mood is very heavy at the moment.

He is not only concerned about the fate of the entire city, but also the fate of himself and others.

If things have really reached a point of no return, then the people in the entire city are likely to be trapped and die in this darkness.

"Yang Jian, what's wrong? What happened?" Zhang Liqin saw Yang Jian rushing out in a hurry and asked anxiously.

"Of course something big happened. If you want to know, you can go and look outside the window. After seeing the situation outside clearly, you will naturally understand." Yang Jian said, "I'm going downstairs first."

After he left, Zhang Liqin curiously went to the window to take a look.

At first, she didn't react, but when she saw the time on her phone, she was stunned.

She checked several times in disbelief, even checked the time online, and finally confirmed it when she saw a series of text messages on her phone.

It's getting dark in Dachang City, the sun hasn't risen, and the whole city is plunged into darkness.

"Yang Jian, where did you hide yesterday? I couldn't find you. Come and take a look, something big happened outside." Jiang Yan saw Yang Jian appear and hurriedly ran over, speaking urgently.

Yang Jian said, "No need to say, I already know. It's getting dark in Dachang City. There's no need to panic. This is just a large-scale supernatural event. Once everything is resolved, everything will return to normal."

"What if it can't be resolved?" Jiang Yan worriedly asked.

Yang Jian said, "The price of coffins will go up. I need to prepare in advance. Remember to prepare one for me too, I need it too."

"You know I'm easily scared, don't scare me." Jiang Yan said.

Yang Jian said, "I'm not scaring you, it's the truth. By the way, who was playing with the pistol just now, was it you?"

"It wasn't me, it was Zhang Wei. He and his father, as well as a large group of people, all came. They are sitting in the lobby on the first floor now. Such a big thing happened, they must be here to seek protection." Jiang Yan said.

Yang Jian said, "Oh, really? What about your family? Why don't I see your relatives and friends?"

Jiang Yan rolled her eyes, "You don't care about me at all. My hometown is not here. I'm just studying and working here. I only have a few classmates and colleagues in Dachang City, no relatives."

"I see, I'll go down and take a look." Yang Jian said.

Sure enough, when he arrived on the first floor, the lobby was full of people, men and women, young and old, a group of people with their families. They all looked nervous, silent, and the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

And in the middle was Zhang Xiangu.

Zhang Xiangu was smoking, looking serious and worried.

"Zhang, good morning. What's with the big scene today? Are you inviting me to dinner?" Yang Jian just came down from the elevator and saw so many people, so he immediately smiled and said.

Everyone looked at Yang Jian, looking him up and down. It should be the first time they have seen this legendary international criminal police officer.

Zhang Xiangu smiled bitterly, "Brother Tui, you still have the mood to joke. I brought my whole family here without being invited. What else could it be?" He pointed outside as he spoke.

"You must already know the situation in Dachang City. It's already a quarter past eight, and it's still dark. What's going on? Is it the end of the world? So I'm asking you about the situation and also asking for your help, so that us ordinary people can safely get through this crisis."

It has to be said that his crisis awareness is quite strong.

It's only a little past eight o'clock and all the relatives have gathered at Yang Jian's house.

Their mobilization and action capabilities are impressive.

Yang Jian said, "You really caught me off guard this time. I really don't know the specific reason for this situation in Dachang City. I only know that this is most likely related to supernatural events. Unlike previous supernatural events, this should be a large-scale supernatural event. The horror is still brewing and has not yet appeared. I can't get any more useful information."

"Then... can it be resolved?" Zhang Xiangu hesitated and asked.

Yang Jian said, "Still not clear, maybe yes, maybe no, it depends on the situation to determine. But what can be certain is that an event of this scale will definitely result in significant casualties."

"Will it be better to stay here?" Zhang Xiangu asked.Yang Jian said, "If I'm not dead, Guanjiang District will be safer than other places. If I die, it will be even more dangerous here."

If he dies, the fierce ghost will revive, and this district will become a dangerous place.

"Then let's move into the district. I hope Brother Tui will take care of us." Zhang Xiangu said with a smile.

Yang Jian said, "Although I'm here, I can't guarantee in this situation. I can only do my best."

"You, as a police officer, do you have any confidence? Stop talking nonsense. If you're not confident, just say so. Let's go somewhere else. Don't harm us. We have money, can't we hire bodyguards with money?" At this moment, a voice spoke up.

Yang Jian raised an eyebrow, "Who was the one speaking so arrogantly just now?"

"Sis, watch your words."

Zhang Xiangu's face changed and he shouted, "Didn't I warn you before? Don't talk nonsense. Just because you don't know something doesn't mean you can speak recklessly."

"What nonsense did I say? Does a little brat like him deserve such politeness? He can live here because of us. Without our help, does he have the qualifications to live in such a high-end place? You're really confused, giving him forty percent of the shares directly. How much is that worth? With this money, who can't hire someone?" The woman said.

"Mr. Zhang, although this aunt is your sister and Zhang Wei's aunt, I still hope she can speak with more respect." Yang Jian ignored her and looked at Zhang Xiangu.

"It's understandable to have a few annoying people in a big family."

Zhang Xiangu immediately stood up, turned around in anger, and said, "This is none of your business. Get out."

"Alright, Zhang Xiangu, you actually scolded me for the sake of an inappropriate outsider. Can you justify your dead mother? What did you say before? After the construction site is completed, you will give me ten million. Where's the money now? You gave it all to this kid. He's your own son, treating him better than Zhang Wei." The woman persisted with a bit of a spoiled attitude.

Zhang Xiangu's face turned pale, wanting to scold but unable to do so. He wanted to hit her but hesitated because she was his sister. He could only tremble with anger.

"Auntie, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Otherwise, you'll anger the wrong person and lose your life, which is not worth it."

The next moment, Yang Jian appeared in front of her, his gaze cold. He directly grabbed her neck with his left hand and lifted her up.

"Do you know what the four words 'International Criminal Police' mean? It means that even if I strangle you to death right now, I don't have to take any responsibility. A few days ago, I personally killed more than twenty people at the door. The ground was covered with corpses. It doesn't matter if I add one more today."

At this moment, the woman's face showed a painful expression. She didn't even have the strength to struggle. She only felt the icy and stiff palm on her neck, which felt exactly the same as when she tidied up her mother's appearance after her death.

Not a person, but a corpse.

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but there was a tall black figure standing behind this person, eerie and terrifying, without a head.

"Brother Tui, calm down. She didn't mean to provoke you." Zhang Xiangu was startled and hurriedly said.

"It's okay, everyone has a temper. If she gets angry at me once, I'll get angry at her once. Let's call it even." Yang Jian smiled slightly and slowly let go of the woman.

"Cough cough~!"

The woman immediately sat on the ground, and when she looked at Yang Jian again, her eyes were filled with fear.

After going through life and death, she could be sure that this person really intended to strangle her just now.

That kind of gaze is definitely not something a normal person would have, like a cold, deathly monster.

Yang Jian continued, "I'm sorry for showing the children some unpleasant scenes. I have no objections if you all want to move into the district. After all, it's Mr. Zhang's decision. But I hope that those who have opinions about me will never express them in front of me. I'm a petty person and can't stand others speaking ill of me."

"Now, I don't welcome this aunt here. Can you please leave?"

The woman was helped up by the people next to her, dared not look at Yang Jian, and hurriedly left as if escaping.

"You all go out first and wait in the sales office over there." Zhang Xiangu regretted bringing these relatives here.

Originally, it was just a family gathering and a chance for everyone to meet Yang Jian and leave a good impression. Who would have expected such a situation to occur?

"I apologize for what happened just now." Zhang Xiangu apologized again.Yang Jian waved his hand and said, "It's okay, no need to apologize. I was a bit impulsive. If I hurt her in any way, I can only say sorry. My mood isn't great under the current circumstances. If we can't solve this problem, there's no need for apologies or sorrys, because soon we might all be dead."

"Is it that serious?" Zhang Xiangu asked, his face filled with shock.

Compared to the life and death of everyone in the family, the situation just now really wasn't a big deal.

"I didn't say it because I didn't want to scare you. Is it laughable to make such a perfunctory statement? Sometimes ignorance is bliss, at least there's no fear." Yang Jian said, "To be honest with you, Zhang, based on my experience, no more than 30% of the people in Dachang City will survive."

He held up three fingers, "This is the most optimistic estimate. The situation could be worse. If I and other ghost controllers can't deal with that thing, the worst outcome is annihilation."

"By annihilation, I mean the entire city becoming a ghost city, with not a single living person left."

"Let me reveal something else. There are no more than ten people like me in Dachang City at the moment. If there were a ranking, my ability would be either first or second. If something happens to me, I think annihilation is not far off."

"Yang Jian, look what I found on the road just now? A handgun. I fired it twice, and it's real."

At this moment, Zhang Wei walked in excitedly, holding a golden handgun, unable to put it down.

"..."

So you're the one who woke me up early in the morning by firing a gun.

Yang Jian looked at Zhang Wei with a strange expression.

"Where did you find it?"

"In the bushes outside. But I only found two bullets. Once they're gone, that's it."

Yang Jian said, "It seems to be a leftover from last time. Since you found it, you can keep it. I have bullets here. Since we're free now, let's find a place to practice shooting. As compensation for the accident last time, how about I treat you to a few rounds?"

"A few rounds? That's not enough. At least a few dozen."

"Wait for me." Yang Jian quickly turned around and left. When he came back, he was carrying two bags. When he opened them, they were full of weapons.

"Holy shit, bro, where did you get these? So many real guns. If you get caught, you'll be beheaded."

Yang Jian said, "I'm now an Interpol officer, I have the right to carry a gun. What beheading? You're the one who'll be beheaded if you carry it."

"There's a nice open space over there. Let's go have some fun." Zhang Wei said excitedly.

"Okay." Yang Jian picked up some weapons and some training bullets and set off.

Before leaving, he patted Zhang Xiangu on the shoulder, "Actually, giving me 40% of the shares, you don't lose anything, Zhang. Your relatives will understand in the future. I'm going to practice shooting. If you have anyone else you need to take care of, bring them all into the community. There's no difference between taking care of one person and a group of people."

"Thank you." Zhang Xiangu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

"I understand, I understand." Zhang Xiangu's heart sank, and he immediately responded.

Yang Jian's mention of annihilation had chilled his heart.

Has the situation really become this serious? Outside, it was just getting dark, but everything seemed fine.

But his intuition told Zhang Xiangu that Yang Jian was not exaggerating, and that such a thing could really happen.

"I don't dare to nag in front of Yang Jian. Where does this woman get the courage? I really admire her."

Seeing this scene, Jiang Yan muttered, "If she keeps provoking Yang Jian, she'll be killed sooner or later. What's the use of having money if you're dead?"

Unlike the ignorance of others, she was a survivor of a supernatural event.

Only Jiang Yan knew what Yang Jian's presence meant.

Why did she stick to Yang Jian so persistently? Apart from a little liking, the most fundamental reason was fear of death.

Those who have not experienced terror will never understand how beautiful it is to be alive.

"Miss Jiang, where is Yang Jian?" Zhang Liqin suddenly asked.

Jiang Yan came back to her senses and was surprised to see her, "Why are you still here?"

Zhang Liqin smoothed her messy hair and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I just got up and was going to tell Yang Jian that I have to leave."

"Then you should leave quickly. Yang Jian is very busy and doesn't have time." Jiang Yan said.

"In that case, I'm sorry for the interruption." Zhang Liqin said.

Although the sky outside was not right, she had many things she couldn't let go of and had to rush back.
