I Forged the Myth of the Ancient Overlords
Chapter 527 - 527 526. Mystical Studies Chat Group_1

Chapter 527: 526. Mystical Studies Chat Group_1 Chapter 527: 526. Mystical Studies Chat Group_1 Along with the screening of the second teaser trailer, “Doomsday” and Lu Ban made the hot search once again.

However, this time it had nothing to do with fighting or the like, but mainly because ecological parks appeared globally, sparking widespread urban legends. Then, those who had seen Lin before recognized the girl whose memory lingered in their dreams at first glance in the teaser.

It turned out that all of this was Lu Ban’s conspiracy!

Just to promote his new movie, he had actors traveling to different parts of the world for early promotion, and kept it all so secret that no one could tell!

Under this teaser, messages about Lin and the ecological park gradually increased.

[I knew it, I just knew it was real, I wasn’t dreaming, holy shit, was I actually face to face with the lead actor then?]

[Lu Ban’s big move, ah, to promote the movie, he doesn’t hesitate to make such a big scene, but really, how did he manage to do this?]

[The amusement park incident in Jiangcheng was weird too, I feel like the spiritual energy of this world is reviving, right?]

[I think so too, some of the people who were rescued from those amusement parks said they had seen Lu Ban, could he really possess some incredible power?]

[You guys stop joking, alright? If Lu Ban really had some superpower, wouldn’t he use it to protect the world instead of making movies for you to watch? What turned him into this, the domestic movie market?]

[Hehe, Lin, my Lin, hehe]

[Guys, as someone who has experienced urban legends firsthand, I need to tell you, things aren’t as nice as you think. The girl seemed very gentle, but when she spoke, there was always a sense of melancholy, I think something might happen]

[How does Lu Ban keep finding so many beautiful actresses with great acting skills, like Red Leaf, Shia, Amber, and now Lin? How come other directors can’t find actresses this good?]

[Guys, on the first day of the new year, I’m definitely going to watch this movie, not for anything else, just for my eternal wife, Lin.]

[Get lost, stop daydreaming!]

On the other hand, there was a group of people who were not as keen on the movie, but more curious about supernatural phenomena.

Before the second teaser, the mysterious girl in the ecological park had already caught their attention.

They gathered eyewitness reports from around the world and compared them with previous urban legends to come to a conclusion.

In a certain chat group, these people discussed matters related to Lu Ban’s new movie.

[“Heart of Darkness”]: I think there’s definitely something fishy, the lead actors from Lu Ban’s previous movies can’t be found, and most of them disappeared without a trace after just one movie. I think there’s something supernatural going on.

[Sage Immortal]: Yeah, there’s definitely something supernatural, it might even be real ghosts!

[Observer of the World Lines]: Are you saying that Lu Ban gets ghosts to act in movies? Is that why they’re so scary? Makes sense!

[Apocalypse Dragon King]: What about Lin, is she a ghost too? But I feel like she’s just a living person, she doesn’t seem like a ghost at all?

[Silver-winged Harbinger of Doom]: Wait, you all need to figure out one thing, if Lu Ban can really control ghosts and have them appear in movies, what’s his purpose, just to make money?

[“Heart of Darkness”]: What’s wrong with just making money? You wouldn’t earn as much as he does in ten lifetimes. Lu Ban is a real life winner!

[Observer of the World Lines]: Let me correct that, you definitely wouldn’t earn as much in ten lifetimes, I think adding two more zeros might be more reasonable.

[Apocalypse Dragon King]: So, you’re saying, Lu Ban can let us see ghosts, could he let me touch a ghost again?

[Sage Immortal]: Get a grip, for all you know he’s waiting to drain you dry!

[Silver-winged Harbinger of Doom]: I’m actually heading to Jiangcheng soon for some work, maybe I can take some time to visit Lu Ban’s company and see if it’s full of ghosts!

After typing these words, the person with the ID [Silver-winged Harbinger of Doom], named He Jiaoyang, stood up and packed his things.

Around him was an open suitcase, which, aside from ordinary items like a change of clothes, toiletries, chargers, and a laptop, also contained a peach wood sword, talismans, a life-disc, a crucifix, garlic, silver jewelry, and several books on the occult.

This was He Jiaoyang’s job.

He was an exorcist.

He Jiaoyang had had Yin Yang Eyes since childhood, allowing him to see certain unpleasant things in the air, such as black mists entwining around someone whose family had experienced death.

As he grew up, He Jiaoyang delved into the occult and began using his abilities to make a living.

He discovered that some methods could eliminate the black fog, so he started working as an exorcist.

Over the years, he had made a bit of a name for himself in the field.

Among those in the business, there were mostly swindlers who flaunted their deceits; very few had real skills.

He Jiaoyang had taken on a job from Jiangcheng this time, using the opportunity to look into Lu Ban’s matter.

A few days later, He Jiaoyang arrived in Jiangcheng. He first took care of his own business, which involved the accidental death of a wealthy boss’s wife. The boss had been plagued by nightmares and asked He Jiaoyang to come and exorcise the evil spirits.

The job was simple; He Jiaoyang decided to use the Chinese method of exorcism this time. It wasn’t that Chinese methods were particularly effective, but he usually went by the client’s attitude—the ones who endlessly prayed to gods and buddhas got the Chinese treatment, while those who seemed to be forced by their families to seek help would get something that seemed more scientific.

It was all about the same.

He Jiaoyang believed that ghosts were not capable of harming people.

If they could harm people, then the ghosts of those who were killed would surely return the favor with interest. Besides, most of the time, the ghosts that haunted you were family members, and how could your family want to harm you?

He Jiaoyang thought that his job was essentially the same as that of a psychologist; it was all about giving people peace of mind for their money.

After finishing the job, he immediately went to the office of Silent Media.

As soon as he walked up to the reception, He Jiaoyang heard someone cursing.

“For the love of… stop coming to the top lane when you’re jungling, okay? You die every time you come, and you’re just feeding the enemy laner.”

It was a girl’s voice.

He Jiaoyang took a glance.

And he couldn’t take his eyes off.

He saw that the high-school-girl-sized young woman with short hair was surrounded by a massive and intense cloud of black fog, which was far deeper than any He Jiaoyang had seen before. To put it bluntly, even the dead didn’t carry such an aura.

And this girl, she was actually playing games engulfed in this black fog?

Was this the Ghost King?

No, that wasn’t right; she was clearly alive!

He Jiaoyang felt like he had stumbled upon some big trouble.

He thought about turning around and walking away immediately, but the girl suddenly looked up.

“Hmm? You’re here to fix the projector, right? Go on in; there’s a sign by the projection room,” she said casually after glancing at He Jiaoyang and his black briefcase.

“No, uh…”

He Jiaoyang didn’t know how to respond for a moment.

“You’re not? Then you need to register as a visitor. Ah, write it yourself, I’m alive again, I need to brush the vanguard.”

The girl pointed to the electronic registration screen nearby.

“…Yes, I’m here to repair the equipment.”

Suppressing the panic within, He Jiaoyang decided to go inside and find out what was going on.

He picked up his briefcase and walked into the company.
