Chapter 80: A Book of Strange Tales! A Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts Under the Cover of Night!

"A book of tales of ghosts and monsters?"

The books scattered in the dust were picked up by passersby, and when they saw the names on the pages, they all laughed dismissively: "What era is this? Still talking about gods and ghosts? It's boring."

This divine artifact, which evolved from the source of black energy, was thus carelessly discarded.

Until

A figure, silhouetted against the shadows, quietly appeared.

He picked up the book of ghost stories and strange tales.

"Is this what the Holy Lord was talking about?"

Looking at the unremarkable book in front of him, Valon showed a puzzled expression: "This book is far less sophisticated than the Dark Qi Tome, it's no different from any other ordinary book."

He was completely baffled.

but,

Since it's something the Holy Lord emphasized, it must have a corresponding effect.

Thinking about this...

Valon then put away the book of ghosts and monsters and prepared to leave.

Just then, a strange figure suddenly appeared in an area where Valon could not see.

it,

It even evaded Ghost Crab's senses.

It was a skeletal monster, covered in sharp spikes.

"Hey, the black aura is gone!"

When the old man arrived in New York, the props could no longer detect any trace of the black aura.

There is only one explanation for this, and that is...

The vessel carrying the black energy has been removed!

Only in this way can the black energy use the human energy to control its own aura, making it impossible for the props in the old man's hand to detect its presence.

"This is not good news."

The old man sighed helplessly.

He could only pin his hopes on the fact that whoever found the vessel of the black energy wouldn't be a bad guy.

"Ding ding ding—"

Just then, a sudden ringtone pulled Dad back to reality: "Who is it calling me at a time like this?"

Dad took his phone out of his pocket, looking very unhappy.

Unknown phone number.

Seeing that the caller ID showed an unknown source, he hung up without thinking.

"Ding ding ding—"

However, the phone kept ringing.

"Scammers these days are really persistent."

After a helpless sigh, the old man still chose to answer the phone, wanting to see what tricks this scammer would pull.

"Feed".

"Dad, it's me, Jackie Chan!"

unexpectedly.

The voice on the other end of the phone was familiar to him.

It's Jackie Chan!

The old man raised his eyes slightly: "Jackie Chan, where have you been? Why didn't you answer my calls?"

Jackie Chan sighed helplessly: "I turned the talisman into diamonds, and now I'm in jail in New York City."

"What, a prison?!"

The old man was instantly dumbfounded: "Ah Long, why did you steal the diamond? There's no lion in the Chinese zodiac, and this diamond has no magic!"

"I know, Dad." Jackie Chan rubbed his head, then turned his back to the guards. "But this is hard to explain."

"There's one more thing!"

"You broke the law and set a bad example for Xiaoyu."

"I understand, Dad, that's why I told you to fly over here right away," Jackie Chan said urgently.

"There's one more thing."

"Dad's already in New York City. Which prison are you in? I'll come see you later."

"I'm in New York"

"There's one more thing, wait a minute. Dad got a new call, we'll talk about it later."

Upon hearing this, Jackie Chan immediately became anxious: "Dad, wait a minute! Don't you know I can only make this call once?!"

"Beep beep beep".

The moment Jackie Chan finished speaking, his father hung up the phone.

Jackie Chan was left alone in prison, looking completely bewildered.

"well"

Jackie Chan reluctantly put down the phone.

"Jackie Chan." At the same time, the guard's voice suddenly rang in Jackie Chan's ears: "Someone wants to see you."

"Is that Dad?"

The guard shook his head and said, "It's a little guy."

"Xiaoyu?!"

Through a bulletproof glass barrier, Jade appeared before Jackie Chan, and she greeted him joyfully, "Happy Thanksgiving, Uncle Jackie!"

"Xiaoyu, are you alright?"

Xiaoyu raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Don't worry, Big Cat is feeling very comfortable right now!"

"Um?"

These inexplicable words left Jackie Chan somewhat confused.

Seeing this, Xiaoyu explained again, "We've already got the cat."

"What did you say?"

"The diamonds are in my hands!"

These words startled Jackie Chan. Before he could react, Jade continued, "I put the diamond in my pocket when you weren't looking. Now, I think I'm missing Little Snake a little~"

Upon hearing this name, Jackie Chan became very angry: "Alright, stop mentioning Little Snake! She's a bad example!"

"Now, I want you to hand over the diamonds to the inspector immediately!"

Xiaoyu shook her head and laughed, saying, "I'm not that stupid. Besides, didn't you say we needed to get the talisman?"

"Xiaoyu, what exactly are you going to do?"

"I'm going to make a deal with the little snake; I'll trade the big cat for the talisman~"

"Meet her under the bridge in this city~"

"Listen to Xiaoyu."

Jackie Chan stood up and said in a deep voice, "Sheriff Black will be handling this soon. I'll go find Little Snake as soon as I get out of prison."

"This isn't fair! I never get to do the fun stuff."

"We have no idea what kind of power the snake charm contains. The little snake, and this city, are in big trouble."

"Have you heard? There was a recent theft at the New York City Museum!"

"Three of the museum's major collections have been stolen."

"Are you talking about the Pink Lion Diamond, that stone, and the giant sun axe unearthed from an ancient tomb?"

"Yes, yes, you knew that too?"

Just as Jackie Chan and Jade were talking, a murmur from nearby reached their ears.

moment.

Their eyes widened in surprise.

The vessel carrying the black energy was also stolen?

"It's a small snake!"

The latest novel is first published here!

"Or it's a mafia organization!"

Jackie Chan is certain that the giant axe was present when he encountered the little snake!

That is,

The giant axe was stolen after he went to prison!

who can that be?

Jackie Chan only suspects two people!

These two are capable of stealing artifacts from the New York City Museum; they're either Little Snake or members of the Black Hand organization!

The little snake possesses exceptional thieving skills, and with the help of the talisman, it can more easily steal the giant axe!

The Black Hand organization has the assistance of demons.

They also have the ability to steal the carriers of black gas!

"Xiaoyu".

Listen up!

"Don't act rashly before I come out!"

"The theft of the black gas carrier will pose a great danger to this city!"

"Oh, I understand."

Although Xiaoyu was playful, she also knew the seriousness of the matter.

He shrugged helplessly.

She obeyed Jackie Chan's orders and obediently stayed in the temporary residence in New York City.

soon.

Sheriff Black's arrival resolved Jackie Chan's imprisonment crisis.

With Jade's help, Jackie Chan went to the bridge where he had arranged to meet the snake, ready to exchange the Pink Lion Diamond for the talisman they wanted!

Meanwhile, Valon brought the book of ghost stories back to the Black Hand organization.

"Holy Lord, is this what you wanted?"

Sensing the terrifying black energy within the Book of a Hundred Ghosts and Strange Tales, the Holy Lord's eyes flashed crimson as he exclaimed with immense excitement, "That's right! This is the vessel containing the very essence of black energy!"

Give it to me!

Valmont didn't hand over the Book of Ghosts and Monsters to Shendu immediately. Instead, he confirmed again, "If I give you this, you'll keep your promise and give me the treasure, right?"

The Holy Lord's voice resounded throughout the room, reassuringly stating, "Rest assured! I am the Demon Lord from ancient times, and as everyone knows, I keep my promises!"

"Once I regain my mobility, I will take you to the location of the treasure as soon as possible, so that you can obtain all of it!"

"Well then, it's a pleasure to work with you."

Valon laughed happily as well, and then he presented the Book of Ghosts and Strange Tales to the Holy Lord.

In an instant.

The terrifying black energy within the Book of Ghosts and Strange Tales began to be absorbed by the Holy Lord.

This is an ability that the demon wizard learned over the long years. Through this magic, he can establish a connection with the Book of Ghosts and Monsters, thereby gaining the power to control the book!

"Swish, swish, swish—"

The room was sealed off, but as the Holy Lord connected with the Book of Ghosts and Strange Tales, gusts of wind suddenly arose.

These strong winds carried a chilling, biting cold.

When the wind blows past Valon, it brings him an especially biting, icy feeling.

"This is unbelievable."

He was shivering from the cold.

but,

Despite the cold, he remained in the room watching the Holy Lord connect with the Book of Ghosts and Strange Tales.

Before long, the Holy Lord completed the connection with the Book of a Hundred Ghosts and Strange Things.

The book fell to the ground.

Although there was no obvious difference from before, Valon could clearly feel that the strange and evil aura in the book had dissipated.

The book I'm reading now is just an ordinary book, nothing special.

"I have obtained this power—the power to command a hundred demons!"

The Holy Lord burst into laughter, then turned his gaze to Valon's back: "Those who have followed Valon all the way here, are you not prepared to show yourself now?"

"Following me all the way? Who, who has been following me all the way?" Valon looked around in surprise at the Lord's words.

He didn't see anything following him.

Until

A cloud of black mist surged out from the statue of Shendu, and beneath Valon's shadow, a gaunt ghostly figure appeared!

"ghost?!!"

Valon was startled and took several steps back.

The Holy Lord laughed and said, "That's right, this is a ghost, one of the tales of ghosts and monsters from the folklore of the Great Xia Dynasty!"

After explaining to Valmont.

The Holy Lord's tone instantly turned grim, and he roared at the ghostly figure, "Now, why don't you kneel before your new master?"

With the power of the Book of Ghosts and Strange Tales, the evil spirit knelt down before the Holy Lord without hesitation.

Book of One Hundred Ghosts and Strange Tales

Possessing this book allows you to embark on an unprecedented night parade of one hundred demons!

This,

That's why this magical artifact is called the Book of a Hundred Ghosts and Strange Things!

"Valon".

"The talisman should still be in New York, right?"

"Not bad." Valon nodded.

"Then, pick up this book from the ground and use the power I've temporarily stored in it to begin the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons."

"Retrieve the Serpent Talisman for me through the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons!"
