Chapter 365: Trade?
Returning to this place, Chu Jiang’s clothes, shoes, and watch had already been "compiled" once, but their appearance still looked physical, while in reality, they had been transformed into data.
Even his unreconstructed head was in jeopardy. Chu Jiang used the power of four ghosts to protect his head, barely maintaining a flickering and unstable state.
This is a battle and mutual consumption between paranormal powers.
At this moment, Chu Jiang began to realize whether he had been deceived by the Ghost Diary.
The diary had mentioned "recklessness" before, but every time Chu Jiang saw it, he treated the Ghost Diary as foolish. He felt the need for caution and care. Faced with a powerful ghost, the more recklessness he shows, the quicker he will die.
But in fact, he missed many opportunities to deal with the false god. Perhaps rushing at it right from the start would have been the right choice.
At this moment, Chu Jiang realized this and made up his mind not to hold back anymore!
He threw out a "Fire Spark" developed by the research institute. This thing can create a safe zone within a range of ten meters, resisting the invasion of ghosts and supernatural powers.
The Fire Spark ignited violently as soon as it appeared, obviously unable to withstand the erosion of digitized powers for too long.
But that was enough. Chu Jiang only needed to fight for one full-powered opportunity.
He reached out his hands, wanting to use the power to interfere with reality, forcefully interrupting the current actions of the false god, especially separating its hand from the electronic control console.
Unfortunately, ghosts can’t die, otherwise Chu Jiang could still use the power of "death" against it.
Chu Jiang guessed that Chu’s Jiang’s control over life and death, the power of death is for dealing with living things; on the contrary, the power of life is for dealing with ghosts…
The power to interfere with reality had not yet affected the false god and the control console when it was immediately blocked by the electronically manifested chain, which can almost seal off all types of supernatural powers, whether tangible or intangible.
This made Chu Jiang very troubled. He had the idea of throwing a "Death’s Call" doll over there to see if he could get lucky and create some kind of miracle or something.
But in this current situation, the doll will most likely be transformed into data and lose its original purpose if thrown outside the range of the fire.
After all, the doll was not developed naturally to fight against ghosts and their powers like the fire.
With time running out, Chu Jiang had no choice but to reluctantly use the power of time restart.
Originally, he didn’t want to use this kind of power, as it was too exhausting. Plus, he still had some of his power keeping the little girl frozen in time.
As this power involving time was activated, everything around started flowing backward.
The previously digitized sewage system, underground machinery room, and even the tiniest specks of dust in the air forcefully transformed from digital state to their original material state.
Jade, who had managed to escape, was also being pulled back step by step by this power.
In the end, Chu Jiang only reversed time back a few minutes.
But even so, his whole body uncontrollably ignited black flames. His expression became painful and distorted. Black and golden streams of liquid flowed from his eyes. A ring of flames around him expanded and contracted, making it look very unstable.
This is Black Sun attacking Chu Jiang because his body’s balance is delicately maintained at a critical point. Now, he is using the powers of four ghosts simultaneously, pushing himself to the limit, which naturally leads to trouble.
Not only Black Sun, but even Blood Hand Ghost and Dark Left Hand are becoming restless at this moment. However, the negative effects are not yet apparent.
Chu Jiang took a step forward, using the power to interfere with reality, instantly teleporting in front of the false god, reversing its process of becoming data!
He cannot allow the false god to have another chance to use this kind of power.
After all, Chu Jiang cannot endlessly restart time and engage in a prolonged battle with the false god. In that case, he would be the first one to die. It’s better to escape to the outside right from the start and slowly shoot targets with a sniper rifle.
Chu Jiang threw a ragged doll and attempted to violently break through the false god’s chained blockade.
But even with the power of Chu’s Jiang constantly shattering the chains before him, new electronic chains continued to regenerate.
Moreover, the doll couldn’t hit the false god, only the chains.
Even if its power caused unexpected malfunctions in the electronic chains, creating bugs, as soon as the flaws appeared, the wrong chains were immediately deleted and new ones took their place. In this situation, the false god was nearly invincible.
While Chu Jiang was attacking, he quickly reviewed the abilities of every ghost in the Ghost Diary in his mind. The previously silent false god started to move again.
But this time, it didn’t use its old tricks to digitize everything around.
It reached out its hand and grabbed the slightly yellowed page of the diary.
This made Chu Jiang nervous. Could it be? Could there be a sealed ghost in this diary? Could you also borrow the power of the ghost in the diary?
Just then, the text in the dialogue box in front of the false god, which had never disappeared, changed again:
[The deity proposes a trade to you.]
[First, save everyone in El Paso City.]
[Two, diary, present.]
[Three, making use of discarded items, staying alive.]
[This is your last chance, it is watching you, it is watching the gods, it is watching us.]
Chu Jiang paused for a moment, what does it mean?? Does this ghost want to make a deal with him?
I have to say, even though the false god uses words to communicate indirectly with humans, it’s similar to Ghost Diary.
But it seems to express its intentions through an artificial intelligence AI, or should we say, a "dumb AI".
This dumb AI, who calls itself the "core system", initially suggested that the false god should swallow Chu Jiang, but later said he was too threatening and withdrew the suggestion.
Chu Jiang had to read the words displayed by the dumb AI twice before he understood what it was trying to convey.
The false god wants to make a deal with him – if Chu Jiang stops fighting, it will let everyone in El Paso City survive. Of course, those who have already died probably can’t be saved.
Then the false god will give Chu Jiang this page of the diary, and it seems like it can also save the little girl from her near-death state, so she can live like everyone else.
The most important thing is the last sentence. The false god is willing to make this compromise not only because it wants to buy more time to finish its unfinished work, but it also seems to fear the existence of a third party.
There was a third party present, and even Chu Jiang knew instinctively who it was, simply by using his foot to think. It was the Holy Word Religion, or to be more precise, it was Sleep Talking!
This ghost, Chu Jiang had never truly believed in it, and he definitely didn’t believe in it and its fanatical followers coming to give him any benefits.
Is Sleep Talking really that friendly towards him? Probably not, it’s just waiting for a perfect opportunity, like right now.
