Chapter 335 Can Strange Objects Invade Reality?

What greeted Si Yan’s eyes was a massive graveyard.

In the graveyard were mountains of Evil Ghost corpses.

Around it were numerous terrified players, as well as countless humans.

These should be the native humans of the Evil Ghost World.

Each of these native humans had numb expressions, with no light in their eyes.

These native humans, raised in captivity as food, were vastly different from humans in the real world; having received no upbringing since childhood, they were kept confined all day.

To some extent, they were not much smarter than animals.

Si Yan saw quite a few players, dozens of them.

“Why is that woman here again?”

At this moment, Si Yan spotted another familiar face.

Luo Yinuo!

Besides her, Si Yan also noticed some suspected veteran players.

The instances of the Evil Ghost World were inherently unpopular with players, so what was Luo Yinuo doing here?

Or was this instance somehow special?

Si Yan’s gaze swept over them, but he didn’t pay too much attention.

Just then, Evil Ghosts had already arrived.

“Tsk tsk, fresh food has arrived. Each of you take 100 people and move these corpses~”

The Evil Ghost spoke bluntly as soon as he arrived.

“Hurry, hurry~”

The urging of the Evil Ghosts rang out.

Players, each leading some native humans, were moving corpses in this massive graveyard.

There were too many Evil Ghost corpses in this graveyard.

Many of these corpses emitted a foul stench, even worse than human corpses.

Fortunately, players didn’t have to do the work themselves; they only needed to direct the native humans.

Dozens of players, leading thousands of native humans, loaded Evil Ghost corpses onto wooden carts and dragged them towards the depths of the Graveyard of Evil Ghosts.

Si Yan was also assigned 100 native humans; these native humans were indeed clumsy.

And each of them was incredibly numb.

Basically, whatever Si Yan told them to do, they would do.

Soon, ten carts on Si Yan’s side were filled.

Then Si Yan led these native humans, transporting the corpses towards the depths of the graveyard.

Si Yan noticed that there were no Evil Ghosts in the depths of this graveyard.

A native human screamed, and Si Yan saw the ground suddenly crack open. A pair of pitch-black hands suddenly appeared and dragged the human down.

The ground of this graveyard was indeed made up of an unknown number of bones.

But they were all bones that had already turned white, with no flesh left.

No wonder the Evil Ghosts were unwilling to enter this graveyard.

Some resurrected Evil Ghosts, before they had fully resurrected, would even attack other Evil Ghosts.

The flesh and blood of Evil Ghosts were also good nourishment for Evil Ghosts undergoing resurrection.

“Ah!!!”

Not long after, native humans were constantly being dragged down.

Si Yan walked in the middle of the team, his gaze fixed on a few teams in the distance.

There, Luo Yinuo and some veteran players each led a team, also transporting corpses inwards.

At this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out from the ground near Si Yan’s feet, reaching for him.

Si Yan snorted lightly, stomping his foot down on the hand.

With a “crack,” the hand was directly crushed into powder by Si Yan.

The team continued to advance, constantly losing members.

Finally, the team reached the depths of the Graveyard of Evil Ghosts.

In the sky, there were indeed some Evil Ghosts.

These Evil Ghosts were somewhat powerful.

And in the depths of the Graveyard of Evil Ghosts, there was already a mountain of corpses, which was not too large yet.

“Hurry, move the corpses up there!”

A very capable-looking Evil Ghost arrived and shouted at Si Yan’s team.

Under Si Yan’s command, the native humans pushed carts full of Evil Ghost corpses onto the corpse mountain, piling them up.

Then the entire team began to return, continuing to transport corpses from the periphery.

Si Yan was still unclear about the situation and did not act rashly.

He decided to observe what these Evil Ghosts wanted to do first.

When the team reached the periphery of the graveyard, out of 100 native humans, less than 30 remained.

However, Evil Ghosts immediately sent 70 native humans to replenish Si Yan’s team.

Thus, Si Yan’s team continued to transport Evil Ghost corpses towards the center of the graveyard.

And further out, there were still some native humans constantly delivering Evil Ghost corpses to the graveyard.

It was unknown where these Evil Ghost corpses came from.

Approximately an hour later, Si Yan completed another round of transport.

The number of native humans had once again sharply decreased to only about twenty.

Then they were replenished by the Evil Ghosts again.

Si Yan’s situation was actually good.

Because Si Yan was there, some things underground that tried to attack Si Yan were stomped out by him.

Several teams had already been completely wiped out.

With players present, the efficiency of these corpse-transporting teams was significantly higher.

This was probably one reason why these Evil Ghosts sent out invitations.

Evil Ghosts were unwilling to do dirty and arduous tasks like transporting corpses, especially into a graveyard; they naturally made the native humans do it.

But the native humans were too clumsy, and their efficiency was very low, so some players were brought in.

Some players were quite clever; with the idea of ‘better a dead friend than a dead me,’ some players directly hid on the corpse carts, so it was the native humans who died.

After several hours of transporting back and forth like this, the casualties among the native humans had probably exceeded ten thousand.

About ten unlucky players also died.

These players mostly died in the first few rounds; later on, players became clever, so not many died.

However, given the Evil Ghosts’ temperament, even if they didn’t die during the corpse transportation process, they would eventually be hunted down by the Evil Ghosts.

The corpse mountain in the center of the graveyard had already accumulated to a very high level.

Corpses were still being transported.

The Evil Ghosts did not give the players any time to rest.

They transported from night in the Evil Ghost World, all the way to the next day’s morning, then to the next day’s night.

And then continued transporting until the morning of the third day.

Many players were already exhausted; they could only catch some sleep during the time the team was loaded with corpses and transporting them to the center of the graveyard.

Si Yan, however, was fine.

After several days of continuous transportation, the number of players was reduced to about half.

Still, nearly half had died!

The massive corpse mountain in the center of the graveyard had already piled up hundreds of meters high.

Such a high corpse mountain, it was unknown how many Evil Ghost corpses were inside.

Tens of thousands of native humans had died to transport these corpses.

“What are these Evil Ghosts trying to do?”

Si Yan couldn’t help but wonder, looking at the giant corpse mountain.

These Evil Ghosts must be planning some major action; otherwise, why build such a high corpse mountain?

Luo Yinuo and some players who were clearly veterans wouldn’t have come in either.

There must be something fishy!

At the periphery of the graveyard, Evil Ghost corpses became scarce.

Immediately after, Si Yan and the native humans, along with other player teams, were all asked to surround the giant corpse mountain.

A large number of native humans were also herded over.

Under the massive corpse mountain, tens of thousands of people gathered at once.

The vast majority of these people were native humans.

There were also over thirty players.

“All of you, stand around here. Once the Ancestor Ghost is resurrected, your flesh and blood will be prime delicacies!”

An Evil Ghost gathered the players together, revealing a cruel smile.

Ancestor Ghost resurrection?

These four words immediately gave Si Yan some guesses about what these Evil Ghosts wanted to do.

These Evil Ghosts had created such a large corpse mountain, seemingly intending to aid the resurrection of an extremely powerful Evil Ghost.

Evil Ghost resurrection was not controllable.

But there were some patterns to follow; Si Yan was not particularly clear about the specific patterns, but these Evil Ghosts certainly knew.

The Evil Ghosts in the sky began to move.

They started sprinkling some powdery substance into the corpse mountain.

These powders were all blood-red.

As soon as they were sprinkled, red mist rose from beneath the entire corpse mountain.

These powders quickly fell onto the corpse mountain.

It took over half an hour to sprinkle, and these powders covered the entire corpse mountain!

Visually, the corpse mountain had turned into a blood-red mountain of blood.

“These powders should accelerate the Evil Ghost’s resurrection speed.”

Si Yan speculated.

He was observing, and at the same time, he was observing the Evil Ghosts around and in the sky.

The Evil Ghosts here were 100% Ghost Saint-level Evil Ghosts.

Evil Ghosts didn’t have Bloodlines; to obtain something similar to a Bloodline, an “Evil Ghost Heart,” it would probably require at least a Ghost Emperor Level Evil Ghost to know the method.

Si Yan had to capture a Ghost Emperor Level or higher Evil Ghost alive and use Hypnosis on him.

To be safe, it would be best to capture several.

What Si Yan was unsure of now was whether there were Ghost Lord or higher Evil Ghosts watching around this massive graveyard.

So he didn’t act rashly.

After thinking for a moment, Si Yan quietly approached Luo Yinuo’s side.

At this time, only thirty-something players remained.

Among these thirty-something players, there were still many new players.

After continuously transporting corpses for several days, even if they hadn’t done the physical labor themselves, they were all extremely tired.

Some new players were even dozing off while standing there.

When a person is extremely tired, they can’t even bother to be afraid.

Luo Yinuo and several other veteran players, however, were all very alert, watching the corpse mountain.

Soon, Si Yan approached Luo Yinuo.

The Evil Ghosts watching the players weren’t constantly staring.

With so many Evil Ghosts here, and many powerful ones, these Evil Ghosts naturally weren’t afraid of any actions the players might take.

Luo Yinuo had already noticed Si Yan’s approach.

The Bloodline she had fused with was also good, so her perception should be very keen.

She turned her head and saw Si Yan.

However, she didn’t recognize Si Yan.

“Miss Luo.”

Si Yan spoke.

Hearing Si Yan’s voice, Luo Yinuo immediately felt it was very familiar, but couldn’t recall it for a moment.

“It’s me.”

Then Si Yan added.

This time, Luo Yinuo remembered, her eyes lighting up: “Si—”

The rest of the word was not spoken, because she saw Si Yan’s gesturing gaze.

The few veteran players around her were somewhat confused.

They had never seen Si Yan, nor heard his voice.

“How did you get in?”

Luo Yinuo became more energetic after realizing it was Si Yan.

In the past few months, Si Yan’s rapid ascent on the overall ranking had also startled her.

Si Yan didn’t answer her question, but instead asked softly: “Miss Luo, do you know what these Evil Ghosts are doing?”

Luo Yinuo had voluntarily entered this instance, so she must have some understanding of the Evil Ghosts’ actions.

Luo Yinuo subtly scanned the surroundings.

The surrounding Evil Ghosts were a bit far away.

It seemed these Evil Ghosts were also unwilling to approach the corpse mountain.

Only then did she whisper: “Ancestor Ghost resurrection. The Ancestor Ghost was an extremely, extremely powerful Evil Ghost in the Evil Ghost World, but he was killed many years ago, and his body was torn apart. Every now and then, when Evil Ghosts find a part of the Ancestor Ghost’s severed limbs, they hold an Ancestor Ghost resurrection ritual.”

Si Yan said “Oh.”

Luo Yinuo continued: “The Ancestor Ghost has actually resurrected twice already, but he wants to become even more powerful. He wants to reach an unprecedented realm through resurrection, so each subsequent resurrection ritual has been extremely grand.”

“Resurrected twice?”

Si Yan was a bit confused; could an Evil Ghost resurrect twice?

Luo Yinuo nodded: “Yes, the Ancestor Ghost is special; each of his severed limbs can resurrect once. Once the Ancestor Ghost is completely resurrected, he poses a great threat to the real world. That’s why I joined forces with people from several player organizations this time.”

At this point, Luo Yinuo stopped, because an Evil Ghost flew by in the sky.

Si Yan had largely understood.

After being killed, this Ancestor Ghost actually thought of using the Evil Ghosts’ ability to resurrect, to become more powerful by resurrecting through his severed limbs.

Such a method was beyond the capabilities of ordinary Evil Ghosts.

If an Evil Ghost was torn apart, it would be very difficult for individual severed limbs to resurrect.

Even if they did resurrect, they would easily become nourishment for other Evil Ghosts’ resurrection.

But then again, this Ancestor Ghost was extremely powerful!

Moreover, this guy could actually threaten the real world?

There had been Gui Creatures that attacked or influenced the real world through players, but rarely.

Because as long as players could return safely, Gui Creatures couldn’t follow them.

If players were mentally controlled by Gui Creatures, they couldn’t return to the real world either.

Players entering the real world were often achieved through methods like curses.

For example, the curse Si Yan received from the Necromancer Queen (End of chapter)
