Chapter 293: 291, Ghost Dinsion
Evil Spirits are not endowed with the wisdom of common reason.
Otherwise, the shadow would not have fallen into the current dire straits.
Therefore, when all the students and teachers stood outside the corridor, looking coldly at Du Wei, he deliberately uttered that sentence for the mastermind behind the scenes to hear.
Even though it sounded insincere, it gave so psychological advantage to the other party.
This is part of verbal tactics.
Always leave room for maneuver at critical monts.
Let it believe that everything is still under its control, or make it feel that previous issues are acceptable as long as the outco is right.
Indeed…
After Du Wei finished that sentence, those teachers and students had no next move.
They just stared at Du Wei, exuding malice.
This further confird Du Wei’s judgnt that Principal Hoddy was not a demon, and it was unlikely to be an Evil Spirit; it could be a person.
The performance continued.
Du Wei looked panicked, holding a flintlock gun in one hand and a lighter in the other, trying to leave.
The embarrassing thing was that the whole corridor was filled with “people,” leaving no way out.
He needed to give the other side an out…
He gritted his teeth and bellowed, “I am the Deputy Chief Judge of the church, you damn Evil Spirits, follow the glory of the Lord, evil be gone.”
The slogan was made up on the spot, and he felt it was a bit awkward.
But at this mont, neither he nor the mastermind behind the scenes cared anymore.
Because his expression was truly frightened, even appearing sowhat flustered as if completely scared out of his wits.
The “people” blocking the way to the stairs mysteriously disappeared.
A path cleared.
Du Wei’s eyes widened and without hesitation, he rushed through.
He had to leave this academic building first.
Leaving this painting, and of course, it would not be one of those two back roads he had because once used, who knows what the mastermind would do.
So, what he wanted to do was to jump out of the painting, push open the door of the painting, and enter the real school, that is, the terror-filled school where Evil Spirits lurked everywhere.
Only then would he face the mastermind behind the scenes and use his ans to leave.
…
After Du Wei walked out of the academic building, he took off the Ebony Cross Necklace hanging around his neck.
Without the restraint of that item, he beca even more rational and sensible, able to cast aside all emotional factors.
He started to analyze.
“If I were the mastermind, and I could influence the fake Evil Spirits inside the painting, what asures would I take to cover up the secret inside the painting?”
“Normally, pushing open the door should lead into the school, but because of this painting, I arrived in the world within the painting, actually residing in an independent phase between pushing the door and entering.”
“Find the door inside the painting, and I can reach the school.”
“To hide this door effectively, one only needs to place it where people are most likely to overlook or instinctively avoid.”
“Buried deep underground is a good choice, but I am a hunter, and I have used Evil Spirit Transformation at the school, so it is not likely that it wouldn’t take the hunter’s abilities into account.”
“Therefore, the location can only be one, at the bottom of that artificial lake… which is precisely where the Evil Spirit female student jumped into the lake ten years ago.”
“90% of people have an aversion to lakes or oceans because once in the water, the sense of helplessness and the desperate waiting for death are overwhelming.”
“Even those who can swim feel the sa.”
Du Wei made a judgnt and took out a mask from his clothes and put it on his face.
Under the mask, his eyes suddenly turned a bit red, and his body was covered with an extrely faint shadow…
The malice in his mind was not as chaotic as before.
“You’re recovering too slowly, but as I’ve said, I will ‘recharge’ you.”
Du Wei’s voice was ice-cold as he directly drew the Joker Card that had the power to grant wishes.
“As the Shadow, I wish to restore my forr power…”
On the card’s surface, the one wearing the mask slightly raised his head…
In front of the palace-like building’s entrance, several decaying arms suddenly extended, three to be exact, directly grasping his shoulders, arms, neck…
They looked extrely creepy…
With that, the him on the card had most of his body pulled behind the door, leaving only the upper half still outside.
However, Du Wei wasn’t worried at all because, all things considered, he had never made a proper wish; it was always through the Masked Evil Spirit or wishes made by the Shadow.
Even if the Evil Spirit revived, it couldn’t find him.
And the price of the wish naturally fell upon the Shadow.
“Hope you don’t get assimilated by the Evil Spirit later on…”
Du Wei silently prayed for the Shadow.
At the sa ti, an evil presence slowly erged from above the mask, and the original cracks closed up, becoming as smooth as new.
The eyes were also filled with bloodshot veins, turning a deep scarlet.
The faint shadow that lood over Du Wei also suddenly beca much thicker.
The wish was fulfilled…
In Du Wei’s mind, a sense of strong malevolence erged that was very familiar and even sowhat nostalgic to him.
It was unmasked, yet seed to pause for a mont.
As if the Shadow had not realized what had happened and was not quite used to it.
After doing all this, Du Wei finally removed the mask.
If he was to enter the real school from the door in the oil painting and confront the Evil Spirit directly, then Du Wei couldn’t wear the mask for now. Otherwise, he couldn’t interrupt the Evil Spirit’s lock-on and use that thod to leave.
Putting on the mask must co after being targeted by all the Evil Spirits.
In this very mont.
Du Wei had also arrived at the edge of the artificial lake.
He looked up at the sky; the rain was becoming heavier.
Ripples appeared on the surface of the lake, and the surroundings had gone completely dark, oppressively so.
Everywhere seed to be riddled with danger.
Boom…
The students and teachers also quietly appeared behind Du Wei, their malice surging…
At the edge of the artificial lake, a female student had appeared out of nowhere. She had pale skin and a slender figure, looking exactly like the Evil Spirit girl that Du Wei had trapped in Massas City, unable to leave.
Her na was Sharan.
Upon appearing, her gaze filled with malevolence settled on Du Wei.
But Du Wei just snickered, one hand in his pocket fiddling with his phone, saying into the darkness, “I know you can see , and I know you’ve realized you’ve been deceived by , but you still harbor illusions, thinking that I am actually unaware of the secrets here.”
“So you’re not so sort of demon at all, but a person…”
“Ten years ago, the Veda Sect’s school was probably set up to investigate the door in Esselgreen’s basent. They tried to communicate with the Vedas but ended up causing the entire school to vanish from reality and appear behind the door.”
“It can be understood as the Ghost Dinsion…”
“But they dared not open the door because there were no Vedas behind it, just the spirits of hundreds of students they had killed.”
“They would be the ones to die.”
“But as the principal of the school, you survived through so ans, and that oil painting happens to be connected to the real door, because it depicts that door. The Veda Sect wanted to reach you through Reagan’s sacrifice to fulfill a certain purpose.”
As he spoke, the atmosphere of horror around them had beco so oppressive that it finally burst forth.
All the students and teachers transford into their pre-death appearances and lunged at Du Wei.
He let out a cold laugh, “I’m not one for many words, but every word I speak has a purpose.”
With that, he took out his phone, and on the screen was a photo of the Shadow with bloodshot eyes reflecting everything around him.
