Under the night sky.
There was chaos in the abandoned teaching building. In the dark corridor, countless figures scread in terror, scattering in all directions.
anwhile, in the empty, abandoned campus, the sound of wheels rolling and high heels hitting the ground echoed.
A woman wearing a black windbreaker with a standing collar dragged a black wheeled suitcase and walked from the shadows at the deepest part of the campus, stopping in the open space in front of the teaching building.
She looked up at the third floor of the teaching building, which was completely engulfed in flas, her brows tightly furrowed, as if thinking about sothing.
"Wa—wa—!"
The infant-like urban legend on her shoulder suddenly let out a harsh, eerie cry, as if urging her to leave. Only then did she take a step and walk towards the main gate.
A mont later, an angry curse mixed with surprise sounded from in front of the school gate.
"This, who is so wicked?! To actually lock the door... Are they crazy?"
Amidst that angry curse, a woman who looked like a high-and-mighty beauty took off her high heels, rolled up her sleeves, and climbed over the wall in a rather undignified manner.
...
Lu Yibei's body temperature gradually decreased, and her fiery red hair gradually faded, turning from red to white. Her consciousness also cleared.
She stared blankly at the scarred landscape around her, carefully recalling what had just happened.
The already dilapidated classroom, under the high temperature, had cracked walls that turned black, with clear traces of being scorched by flas.
In a corner of the classroom, Du Sixian leaned against the wall, sleeping peacefully. Apart from her pale complexion and slightly haggard appearance, she seed to have suffered no harm.
Through the window behind her, one could see the corridor was pitch black and exceptionally quiet. The strange puppets that had been moving earlier had all disappeared.
It is worth ntioning that the four wheeled suitcases were not completely destroyed in the high temperature that was enough to lt tal. The suitcases were open, emitting a faint sll of decay, and four charred puppets lay quietly inside.
The material of those puppets was consistent with the venting puppets she had seen in the corridor earlier, but they were much smaller, only about the size of a palm.
Around the suitcases, the lted aluminum alloy desks had re-solidified, forming clumps.
On the slightly shimring tal were imprinted the traces left by those urban legend as they struggled in their death throes. Those limb-shaped patterns were shocking and made one feel as if tornted souls were imprisoned within.
Lu Yibei stared blankly at those imprints. Her mory of what had just happened was not clear. She only rembered that after Du Sixian joined the ritual, she suddenly entered a strange state.
She heard many people shouting loudly in her ears, saw thousands of blurry faces, and then everything fell into dead silence. In the dead silence, she burned like a bonfire, as if she wanted to ignite the entire world.
After that, her mory was only left with so fragnted pieces. She completely failed to understand the aning contained within them and felt dizzy just trying to explore them.
Lu Yibei collected her thoughts, rubbed her temples, feeling both fearful and confused about the experience she had just had.
Before this, she had never imagined that changing a hidden description in the Disc Spirit ga would lead to such consequences.
She felt that if she maintained that strange state for just one more second, she would ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) probably go crazy.
Although this ti, the power brought by that description helped her escape danger.
But she wasn't happy about the existence of a potentially powerful force within her body.
That power was restless, chaotic, and difficult to control, like a raging wildfire. The more she explored, the deeper she went into it, the more likely she was to be buried in the sea of fire, which made her feel fear.
That's right, it was fear! The kind that causes insomnia, nightmares, and night sweats.
It was like being tightly bound to a nuclear bomb that could explode at any mont.
Perhaps it's because I'm too weak that this is happening? In the future, I should be cautious about trying things like this, no, I shouldn't try them if I can avoid it. Lu Yibei thought. That which cannot be used by ...
I won't use it!
...
The glass on the surrounding windows had completely lted. The evening breeze carried a hint of coolness, blowing unobstructed onto Lu Yibei's smooth, fair skin, like a pair of icy little hands stroking her, causing her body to tremble slightly.
It was only then that she was startled to realize that her Coat had disappeared at so point. She inwardly cried out that sothing was wrong.
"Holy crap! Could the silly Coat have been burned to death? This... what should I do?"
Lu Yibei muttered to herself. Just then, the deford door of the classroom was suddenly pushed open with a "Creak!" by soone.
Her heart skipped a beat. She quickly grabbed the mingwang statue beside her as a precaution. Then she saw it: that red and white windbreaker, standing upright, poking half of itself through the opened door crack, like a curious Little Girl, peering left and right.
Let see, is she done?
"Pfft—!"
Seeing the Coat's sneaky yet adorable appearance, Lu Yibei couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Don't look at this Coat usually seeming silly, it's quite clever at critical monts! Lu Yibei thought.
Hearing her laughter, the Coat flew over with a "swoosh" and put itself on her body, then raised its hood and rubbed her cheek affectionately.
...
Lu Yibei collected the completely burned urban legend core bodies on the ground, which she didn't know if she could still "eat," and chose a wheeled suitcase that looked relatively intact, preparing to put them inside.
"Uh..."
Less than a ter away from the wheeled suitcase, Lu Yibei suddenly felt a burning pain in her eyes, and her vision beca blurry.
Familiar discomfort!
Lu Yibei knew that she might see another illusion. She frowned and imdiately stepped back a few steps cautiously.
Avoid it if possible. Lu Yibei thought.
The strange state caused by that description earlier had a significant impact on her, making her not want to do anything reckless for a while.
However...
She never expected that the illusion would chase after her and move by itself!
"..." Lu Yibei was silent, shrugging expressionlessly, and then calmly accepted the gradual change in the scene before her eyes.
Otherwise, what else could she do? Since she couldn't resist, she might as well enjoy it!
Enjoying it, enjoying it, maybe one day she would get used to it.
Lu Yibei thought aimlessly, her body suddenly plumted, and her vision abruptly fell into darkness.
...
The sky was dark and gloomy. The setting sun filtered through the gaps in the dark clouds, casting a faint yellow hue like an old photograph on the long corridor.
Lu Yibei was like an invisible lonely ghost, silently observing.
The sign with the words 【Venting Room】 hung on the wrought iron door, swaying gently. The soft-padded doors on both sides were closed.
By the window at the end of the corridor, a tall girl, wearing the Shihekou Middle School's British-style uniform, gazed into the distance, as if waiting for sothing.
The evening breeze blew, ssing up her long hair. The setting sun shone on her, staining the white swan pendant on her chest with a hint of blood.
Before long, a light sound echoed in the corridor, soone was approaching.
Judging from the number of footsteps, there were at least five to six people.
A mont later, those people walked through the corridor and ca to the girl's side, stopping.
Those people were male and female. Like the girl, they wore the Shihekou Middle School uniform, but their faces were blurry and unclear, as if covered in a mist.
A group of people lingered by the girl's side for a mont. A boy was the first to speak, "Lin Yiqi, have you really thought about doing this? What if Zhao..."
Before the boy finished speaking, he was interrupted by a girl screaming, "Ah! Don't say the na, don't say the na! He'll know!"
"Uh... hmm." The boy paused, then continued, "If you really decide to kill him, we'll help you!"
Lu Yibei was slightly startled upon hearing this. She was witnessing a group of high school students, only fifteen or sixteen years old, discussing preparing to kill soone?
They called that girl Lin Yiqi, so wasn't she waiting for Zhao Ke?
While Lu Yibei was thinking, the students began to argue noisily.
"That's right! That guy is a freak, we've had enough!"
"I think the series of deaths at school recently are all related to him!"
"It's definitely him! I heard he's raising vengeful spirits..." A girl said weakly.
"Did you hear about the incident in Class Three? That guy sohow got into the girls' dormitory in Class Three, and the next day all the girls in that dormitory jumped off the roof of the experintal building."
"He's an animal, seventeen, seventeen people have already died. If this continues, we'll either beco his slaves or beco Revenant."
"No, there's another possibility, which is being driven mad." Soone added.
Lu Yibei, "..."
Listening to the students' conversation, she could already imagine what Zhao Ke had done through the Disc Spirit ga.
He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby beco a monster.
It seed that after getting rid of the bullies, Zhao Ke did not stop praying to the Disc Spirit.
Instead, he continued to use the entity summoned by the Disc Spirit ga to satisfy his twisted desires born from long-term oppression.
Human desires, like rolling stones down a snowy mountain, once started, can no longer be stopped, eventually brewing into a tragic avalanche.
"By the way, Lin Yiqi, what exactly did that guy do to you?" A girl asked in a low voice, "To make you hate him so much that..."
"Enough!" The girl interrupted sharply, as if a scar had been touched. As she spoke, she lightly stroked her lower abdon, her eyes gradually turning cold.
"I've decided. If he cos here today, I'll make him stay forever."
"I'm grateful that you're willing to help . If you're not, I'll find a way to kill him myself."
Hearing this, everyone responded in unison, "Willing, of course willing! We decided before we ca, to eliminate harm for the people!"
The girl nodded slightly, "Alright, that's it. You guys hide in the venting rooms around here first. I don't know what abilities he has right now, so I can only ambush him..."
Under the girl's instructions, the students hid in the venting rooms on both sides of the corridor. Looking at the empty corridor where undercurrents surged, Lu Yibei realized that she was witnessing the brewing and birth of a murder.
