Chapter 349: Chapter 339: Turnaround
“Do we still need to find Hannah?”
Tang Qi saw the sixth Hannah, staring at him with angry eyes.
Although being glared at, Tang Qi knew from the roster that the crisis had indeed been resolved.
Within six seconds, finding the sixth Hannah,
would exempt them from attack and place them in a safe zone.
Tang Qi shook his head, declining to continue.
As expected, the scene that Tang Qi had anticipated appeared. The five Hannahs that Tang Qi had found earlier appeared simultaneously. Six identical little girls, holding hands, laughed as they vanished from sight.
This scene was consistent with what Esralda’s research report had stated.
anwhile, a new Hannah materialized out of thin air in front of him.
“Let’s play hide and seek?”
The new ga invitation drilled into Tang Qi’s ears.
“Sure!”
After verifying the most crucial safe zone, Tang Qi almost imdiately responded to the invitation.
Before he entered this cabin, Esralda, the Witch Leader with powerful talent, had already researched Hannah ahead of him.
In fact, among ten Level 5 Danger Source students, the report pages about Hannah ranked among the top.
Although Tang Qi trusted Esralda very much, as a new ga participant, he decided to verify those patterns summarized in Esralda’s report from a fresh perspective, in order.
Next, it was Tang Qi playing gas with the little girl Hannah over and over again.
Each ti, Tang Qi would stop in the safe zone, refusing the sixth Hannah, allowing the ga to enter a new cycle.
Soon, after countless tis, Tang Qi completely verified the authenticity of the information in Esralda’s report.
Hannah!
A girl with a tragic background and experiences, until she was infected by unknown powers from the Exotic Realm, becoming a different kind of creature entirely from ordinary humans. Her “psychological loop” ga was safe until the seventh Hannah appeared.
Of course, participating in the ga also required the power of either Tang Qi or Esralda; otherwise, if one cannot enter the safe zone within six seconds, death is certain.
At this mont, the familiar invitation ca again.
This ti, Tang Qi will make the opposite choice.
Because of caution, or rather to avoid provoking Hannah, the research data from Esralda sharply declined starting from the seventh Hannah.
This part might be the key, and Tang Qi had to do it himself.
“Do we still need to find Hannah?”
“Yes!”
Tang Qi, having refused the invitation many tis before, suddenly agrees now, and in the sixth Hannah’s green eyes, a hint of indescribable color flickered.
A fierce, sudden gust of wind blew over.
Within the scorched sll was mixed a spine-chilling malice.
When the other five Hannahs appeared and vanished expressionlessly together with the sixth Hannah, Tang Qi’s figure also disappeared from the spot.
When he reappeared, Tang Qi was standing in front of a giant, charred tree within the forest.
Ahead was a black tree hole just big enough to accommodate a little girl.
The one who appeared inside was precisely the seventh Hannah.
Different from the previous six Hannahs, the little girl in front of Tang Qi had eyes filled with fear and timidity. She continuously curled her body deeper into the tree hole as Tang Qi looked over.
“Boom!”
A Spiritual Attack suddenly occurred.
It seed as if a giant hamr appeared in the air, harshly striking Tang Qi’s head.
But none of these affected Tang Qi. The mont he accepted the invitation, he had activated the Guardian Spell, a thin layer of the Golden Shield tightly covered all around him. Hannah’s spiritual ability was very powerful, but it still couldn’t breach Tang Qi’s Guardian Spell.
Tang Qi did not instantly teleport to find the eighth Hannah, although through cheating thods, he already knew where the eighth and even the ninth Hannah were.
At this mont, his gaze was completely focused on the seventh Hannah.
Like most of the Information Fragnts before, they rapidly passed by.
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, Tang Qi saw a special Information Fragnt.
“Information Fragnt Seven: This is Split Individual Seven, a dominant individual, capable of directly devouring the other individuals.”
As if to verify this information, before Tang Qi moved to search for the eighth Hannah,
the other Hannahs who should have appeared holding hands and laughing with the seventh Hannah did not show up. Contrarily, various expressions of Hannah flashed across her face, and then one by one were overwheld by “fear and doubt.”
The seventh Hannah disappeared on the spot.
“Whoosh”
“Thump”
The mont Tang Qi appeared in front of the eighth Hannah, he saw a beast-like figure, bursting out from the deep shadows of the forest, directly charging at Tang Qi, unleashing the strength and roar comparable to a monster onto him.
Without exception, it was rebounded by the Guardian Spell.
But she seed impervious to pain, unaware of cessation, continually launching attacks.
Tang Qi felt for a mont; his Magic Power was decreasing faster than when he defended against the Spiritual Attack.
However, his eyes also captured the sa Information Fragnt as desired.
“This is Split Individual Eight, a dominant individual, capable of directly devouring the other individuals.”
As this stream of information passed by, Tang Qi’s figure suddenly disappeared.
Whoosh!
In the deepest part of the forest, Tang Qi faced the ninth Hannah directly.
The little girl stood in an open space, surrounded by devastation. Everything had been scorched by terrifying flas, and only the cold moonlight above her, sprinkled down, making the place appear even more eerie and desolate.
Boom!
Flas filling the view completely engulfed Tang Qi.
At the sa ti, a familiar question appeared.
“Do you still want to find Hannah?”
Another option erged.
The last chance, confirming the last page of Esralda’s report, as long as one refuses, they can still safely leave the ga.
As for the consequences of agreeing, the report did not specify.
But since Esralda, skilled in divination, did not et her demise, one could imagine the horrifying changes that would occur if one agreed.
Tang Qi stared at the ninth Hannah, and through the flas, a special piece of information flowed: dominant individual…
Quickly shaking his head, Tang Qi ended this dangerous cycle.
Before he returned to the building, a new Hannah appeared, and the cycle began once again. Tang Qi did not imdiately respond to her, thoughts swirling in his mind.
“An important pattern that Esralda did not discover is, starting from the seventh Hannah, they are all dominant individuals capable of devouring each previous Hannah.”
“From this point, combined with the events of that night, the process by which Hannah gained the ability to split herself is also the process by which her innocent and kind soul is step-by-step devoured by negative emotions. The night she was found by the townspeople, the ones who murdered all the villagers were probably the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth Hannah.”
“Or perhaps, it was simply the tenth Hannah. Her nursery rhy part… the tenth girl destroys everything?”
“If I directly agree to continue the ga to the end without finding a solution beforehand, I will have to face the tenth Hannah. Her negative emotions and power would burst forth, and I might only be able to protect the school from chaos by killing her.”
“How to break it?”
Tang Qi still ignored the new Hannah’s invitation, lost in thought.
He could not harm Hannah, nor could he even entertain that thought; otherwise, it would invite an attack.
Nor could he bring out all ten Hannahs or forcibly use Red and Illusion Spell to dissolve their negative emotions.
Everything seed to be confined within this ga.
“Hmm? Wait?”
“The ga is just repeating the process of Hannah’s soul being devoured by negative emotions, ultimately birthing a Hannah who destroys everything.”
“What if we reversed this process?”
A light nearly sparked in Tang Qi’s eyes.
A sowhat crazy plan instantly ford in his mind.
What excited Tang Qi was that, although the plan seed crazy, if the first step succeeded, each subsequent step would completely avoid danger, even offering a chance to return to safety at the very last mont.
At this mont, Hannah’s voice ca again.
“Let’s play hide and seek?”
“Okay!”
Without any hesitation, Tang Qi agreed.
“Sigh!”
Randomly, Tang Qi appeared on the rooftop next to the water tower.
The first girl, lively and sweet!
The Hannah before his eyes smiled brilliantly, about to disappear the next mont.
But in that instant, a hand suddenly reached out, grabbed Hannah, and the already prepared witchcraft was released.
“Red!”
“Boom”
When that supre red and golden flas engulfed a little girl’s soul into that world without suffering any attack, Tang Qi almost couldn’t help but cheer.
Passed the judgnt!
The action of Red capturing Hannah’s soul did not count as an attack.
However, it wasn’t considered a success until the very last mont.
At the stairwell, just as Tang Qi saw the second Hannah, Red had already swept through.
The second soul was engulfed.
At this mont, only a second had passed.
The third, fourth, fifth… Three more seconds passed, and in the depths of Tang Qi’s eyes, in that special world, five Hannahs were holding hands, looking around sowhat bewildered.
“Sigh”
The sixth girl was kind and tolerant, she had just asked Tang Qi that question, and Tang Qi instantly gave an affirmative answer, at the sa ti, that supre red and golden flas surged.
“Bang!”
It was still a hollow tree, just as Tang Qi steadied himself, an even more intense spiritual attack struck.
This ti, Tang Qi had to brace himself and took a hit.
“Spurt”
When a mouthful of fresh blood was spat out, Tang Qi had already cast Red.
A shy, doubting young girl’s soul was suddenly drawn into that world with six of her kind.
Tang Qi’s voice also resonated in that world.
“Assimilate her!”
The process was reversed from this step.
Tang Qi did not appear in front of the eighth Hannah, but used all his Magic Power to maintain “Red.”
The key mont had arrived to verify whether his plan would succeed. Dominant individuals could devour others due to the static ga process, a psychological loop for Hannah. Shattering this loop would invite a fierce backlash.
What Tang Qi needed to do was to keep this loop intact, but to reverse the process.
His mind fully imrsed in that world, he watched those seven Hannahs rge into one instantly. The expressions on her face began to undergo a strong transformation.
