Chapter 123 – Chance encounter event


Still in broad daylight.

The streets in the bustling area were crowded with people coming and going.

“Bang~!”

Suddenly, a glass window from a high-rise building next to them fell from mid-air and shattered on the ground, with glass shards splashing everywhere and injuring several pedestrians.

Others quickly dodged, but at the same time, curious onlookers looked up at the building.

It should be around the fifteenth floor.

Although it was not very clear, it could be seen that there were people inside the fifteen-story office building using various tools to smash the glass from the inside.

The glass windows of the high-rise building were made of tempered glass, which is generally difficult to break. However, the people inside the office building, for some unknown reason, managed to smash the windows, causing the shattered glass to fall to the ground and almost injure the passersby.

“It seems like something big is happening. The people on the first floor are smashing the windows to escape. Could it be a fire?”

“I didn’t see any smoke. It doesn’t seem like a fire.”

“It’s strange. What are they doing? Could they all be going crazy? Or is the company brainwashing its employees?”

Many people discussed and quickly left the dangerous area.

Before long.

A crowd gathered, looking up at the events happening on the fifteenth floor of the high-rise building.

“Don’t come over, don’t come over… Help, someone save me!”

A female employee from a company sat by a window, crying in despair, her face filled with fear.

She waved her hands towards the inside of the office building, trying to drive something away, but at the same time, she desperately wanted to stay away from that floor. In the end, she was forced to lean out of the window, almost jumping down.

But in the next moment.

This female employee suddenly screamed hysterically and, without knowing where she found the courage, flipped over the window and tried to jump down.

However, before she could jump, she seemed to be caught by something, and her whole body was instantly thrown backwards, disappearing from the sight of all the onlookers. Only a faint scream could be heard echoing from the fifteenth floor.

It was chilling to hear.

“Bang, bang~!”

Several other young and strong male employees smashed the glass like they were going crazy, and then tried to climb down to the first floor through the broken glass.

No one knew what had happened inside, but it forced these people to do such dangerous things on such a high floor.

“They’re all shouting for help. Something serious must have happened. Call the police quickly.”

Some people who were just watching felt that something was not right and hurriedly called the police.

But more people raised their heads curiously, watching the events unfold.

Some even took out their phones and started live streaming the scene.

At this time, Yang Jian stood by the roadside, eating ice cream and frowning as he looked at the incident on the first floor.

The whole floor seemed to have lost power, dim and covered in a layer of dark green haze. It didn’t look like thick smoke or fog, but rather strange. Although the fifteenth floor was not completely invisible, being surrounded by that dark green haze made everything appear blurry.

“Something really happened. How did you know?”

Jiang Yan grabbed his arm, not leaving his side, with a sense of panic.

“It’s some kind of connection between the same kind… I can’t explain it. It’s like a person’s sixth sense, but my sixth sense is just stronger.”

Yang Jian took a bite of his ice cream and continued watching.

“Although I don’t know if the other floors will be affected, none of the people on the fifteenth floor will survive. This ghost’s level of terror is very high, it can even affect the surrounding environment.”

He looked up and continued observing.

If it could affect the surrounding environment, it meant that the Ghost Domain was about to be formed.

On that international website, the level of terror would be defined as at least B.

Jiang Yan shivered. “Then why are you still watching? Since it doesn’t concern us, let’s leave quickly. Otherwise, we’ll be in trouble if we get involved.”

“No, we have to take a look. We need to at least understand some details of this supernatural event. Otherwise, if we accidentally encounter it next time, we’ll be completely clueless.”

Yang Jian continued eating his ice cream. “It’s rare for something like this not to happen to me. Sometimes, it feels good to just watch the show.”

Jiang Yan saw the despair and fear on the faces of the employees on the fifteenth floor and couldn’t help but think of her own experience in the mall.

She couldn’t feel any desire to watch the show, only fear.

But outsiders watch the show, while insiders watch the doorway.

Yang Jian squinted his eyes slightly, thinking to himself, “This is already a supernatural event happening in broad daylight. How many have happened in Dachang City before? The ones I’ve encountered, and the ones I haven’t… I can clearly feel that the number of supernatural events is increasing.”

“It’s probably not far from the full-scale outbreak that Wang Xiaoming mentioned, which cannot be suppressed.”

“The peaceful order is about to be broken, and the despair brought by the fierce ghosts will probably engulf everyone soon.”

Looking at the faces of the onlookers, they showed no fear or alertness, just treating this event as an accident, as if they were just watching a show.

Who could have imagined?

What they were seeing was a supernatural event actually happening.

“We must start preparing immediately.”

Yang Jian took another bite of his ice cream. “Arrange everything as quickly as possible and then… prepare for survival.”

He had a feeling that a storm was coming, the end of the world was approaching.Although everyone in the city was still oblivious, as a Ghost Controller, he had already sensed something amiss with the paranormal event.

A heavy rain was coming.

The first sign was not the rain hitting the leaves, nor the thunder heard by animals, but the dragonflies flying low before the rain.

“Ah~!”

A desperate scream rang out at this moment.

A man could no longer bear the fear and jumped out of the shattered window.

His body tumbled several times in mid-air before finally landing on the ground with a thud.

Such a height instantly turned a person into a corpse, and the corpse was no longer in human shape, with the skull shattered and splattered everywhere.

It was a gruesome sight.

Many of the onlookers screamed in fright, causing some commotion in the crowd, and they all fled further away.

Yang Jian still stood by the roadside, unmoving, continuing to eat his ice cream while watching the scene.

Jiang Yan could no longer bear to watch and hid behind him.

“Jumping off the building will only lead to a quicker death. The only chance is to muster the courage to run away while the ghost is killing others.”

Yang Jian calmly said, “Among a group of people, there are always a few lucky ones who will be let go by the ghost.”

It sounded easy.

But it was hard to put into practice.

It was useless for one or two people to bravely rush out, it needed to be a group.

But these people had already experienced the terror of the fierce ghost, and they were all so scared that they jumped off the building in despair. The rest were just waiting for death.

However, at this moment.

Several police cars drove straight over from various roads.

They didn’t obey the traffic rules and directly ran the red light to get here.

“The police response is indeed fast. If this were an ordinary accident, it could be stopped. Unfortunately… this is a paranormal event.” Yang Jian didn’t think this would be of any help.

Even if a Ghost Controller immediately intervened in the event, saving people would be a pipe dream.

If a Ghost Controller dealt with the fierce ghost too hastily, they would also lose their life.
