Chapter 312: Chapter 312: Escape Chapter 312: Chapter 312: Escape When we arrived, everything had already been taken care of by Anwina.
The suspicious woman was trembling and sitting on the ground, her eyes filled with the deepest despair and fear, while on the other side, a frail boy nad Liu Fan, though not physically hard, couldn’t even stand up due to the shock of experiencing such a strange and terrifying event, and could only watch in fear as the ghost girl hovered in mid-air nearby, shivering intensely.
However, the terror of the ghost girl was only apparent to those who had experienced so shocking event; from my perspective, her most stunning mont was right now, quietly floating in mid-air, her body bathed in a faint glow, the ribbons of her maid costu fluttering slightly with the wind, and a gentle smile directed towards .
“Master!”
After Lilina and I reached the scrapyard, the Ghost Maid imdiately let out a joyous squeal like a lost child seeing her family, turned into a streak of light and rushed towards us, then without hesitation, passed through my body and hid behind .
…Is this what they call the shortest distance between two points?
“Master,” Anwina, as always, stood obediently behind and whispered, “That woman seems to be really scared of ghosts…”
The “woman” referred to by Anwina was now casting a terrified gaze toward us, especially when she saw Anwina hiding behind , her look almost hysterically filled with despair and fear. I’ve known people afraid of ghosts, Ding Ling being a quite noticeable example, but this woman’s fear… seed a bit exaggerated.
“Anwina, what exactly did you do? The way she looks at you is like soone who just escaped a concentration camp only to bump into the prison warden imdiately after.”
Anwina blinked her puzzled eyes and muttered softly, “Nothing much, just scared her a little.”
Just a little scare?
I maintain the highest level of skepticism about that claim.
anwhile, the woman whose soul had almost been torn apart by Anwina was finally regaining her ability to think.
Rembering the horrifying way the crazed ghost had tortured her soul, the pain that could drive even the strongest Superpower User to the depths of despair surged in her heart once again. Seeing the ghost girl now looking obedient and docile, even sowhat dazed while hiding behind that man, dusa imdiately suspected her mind was completely broken.
In our spiritual connection, Anwina shared her findings, “Master, this woman’s spiritual field is suspiciously powerful.”
“If it weren’t for the successful surprise attack where I rged my spirit with hers and controlled her thoughts with the emotion of fear, I would have been easily repelled by her in less than a minute,” Anwina continued through the spiritual connection while patting her chest with palpable relief, “At least in terms of spiritual strength, her power is nearly reaching that of several of the mistresses. Such imnse spiritual power is not sothing humans can naturally possess. Moreover, I discovered nurous chaotic sources of power within her body, and her spiritual structure appears to be artificially enhanced, surgically altered, and her physical structure also differs from that of normal humans — but anyways, having never fought a ghost before, she was still confusedly defeated by .”
“Well,” I shrugged my shoulders, “Maybe I can guess the origin of this woman.”
“Hey, what’s your na? Don’t try to fool with so ‘Zheng XX’ thing, or I swear in the na of God I’ll beat you to death!”
Lilina walked up to the woman crawling on the ground, a pair of chopsticks magically appearing in her hand, then squatted down and began poking the woman’s forehead repeatedly.
“She… she said her na is… dusa…”
A trembling voice rose from behind us, and I turned around just to see Liu Fan leaning on a nearby concrete slab, his legs trembling as he stood up.
dusa? The mber of the Olympus who mysteriously disappeared from the Superpower Team’s radar? We really caught a big fish this ti!
Lilina imdiately threw the mysteriously appearing chopsticks away, stood up, and greeted, “Yo! Trashy guy, you haven’t been scared to death? You’ve earned so respect from now.”
Liu Fan cautiously glanced at the Ghost Maid floating near and said with a smile uglier than crying, “Uh-ah… just now, I was actually saved by this… sister, so… I’m not afraid, and also…”
It would be more convincing if you weren’t saying “I’m not afraid” while continuously stepping backward.
“Let introduce you,” I pointed to the impeccably smiling Ghost Maid beside , “This is Anwina, one of the special envoys of Boundless Love, and as you can see, a ghost.”
Anwina imdiately bowed slightly, pinched the hem of her skirt, and perford a perfect curtsey: “Hello, I am Anwina, the loyal maid of the master.”
Then Liu Fan’s face instantly turned even paler.
“Keep this confidential, got it?” Lilina hopped in front of him, unleashing the Loli-specific 45-degree angle innocent gaze from below, “Or I’ll make you evaporate from the mortal world — in the na of God.”
Expressing such chilling words with such a cute expression, Lilina really has degraded into Lin Xue V2.0, hasn’t she?
A strange sense of oppression suddenly emanated from the little girl, barely over a ter tall, standing before Liu Fan. He hastily nodded in agreent, his experiences today being too bizarre. Not only had his trusted teacher suddenly tried to kill him, but he had also encountered ghosts and other odd abilities. Even for a school haunted by ghosts, this developnt was too shocking. Thus, for the sake of his own life, Liu Fan could only wisely choose to unconditionally follow the commands of the little girl who clearly belonged to another realm.
“Okay, okay,” I approached dusa, who was lying on the ground, with a joyful smile of unexpected discovery, “Let’s see what this big catch is about. What a huge surprise! Now, I have many questions for you, first, why did you—”
A burst of icy blue halo suddenly exploded from dusa’s side, the drastic drop in temperature slightly distracting . By the ti I regained my senses, the woman lying on the ground had vanished.
Damn! What was that? Frost Nova? Frost Nova combined with a blink?
The crackling sound of breaking ice continued unabated. As I shook off the ice crystals from my body, I looked around. Closest to , Lilina was surrounded by a pale green Magic Shield, seemingly unhard. Behind , Anwina had not been so lucky and had turned entirely into a block of ice. However, she blinked her eyes inside the ice block and then floated out in her ghostly form, while farther away, Liu Fan was rely shivering from the cold, apparently unscathed.
Most importantly, dusa, whom we had finally tracked down, was now gone.
Stay calm, keep control. My negative karma wasn’t just a day or two old. Compared to being tangled with that troubleso aggregation, Lin Xue, a minor setback… Damn! How could I just let it go?!
“Lord Bubbles!” I issued a psychic call.
“Lord Bubbles?”
Still no answer, just static.
“Command, what is Xyrin Host doing?”
“Reporting to the Emperor, Lord Bubbles is currently… playing King of Fighters, playing 3C, playing CF, playing StarCraft, running dungeons, farming legendary gear, while simultaneously watching twenty-seven ani series and reading one hundred thirty-three novels, seventy-one comic books…”
…At this rate, the combined otaku culture of all humanity couldn’t match what a certain little otaku girl could muster in just a few days! Seriously, how could things considered ‘backward and ignorant’ by Earthlings still be so appealing to you, kiddo’s mom??!!
Indeed, at that mont, it seed I had already lost control of my brain.
“…Get her on the line! Desperately call her! Keep calling until she answers!”
A minute later.
“Hello? What’s up, kiddo’s dad?”
Should I complain, or should I still complain, or should I really complain?
“Kiddo she… spit, spit, Lord Bubbles, check the energy fluctuations around for the past few minutes. A suspicious target just vanished right before my eyes! See if you can find her trace.”
“Uh, I found so suspicious energy residues, they’re traces from the activation of a space device.”
“A space device? Are you sure? Could it be residues from a Space Superpower?”
“No way, the energy residues from a superpower and those from a space device are fundantally different! But based on my analysis of the surrounding energy residues, that space device is quite outdated. With such chaotic energy confinent, it should be junk by now, and the enemy who used it to escape couldn’t have teleported more than a hundred ters away.”
“Alright, continue playing.”
After saying that, I hung up the Spiritual Connection.
Space device… Modern humans are absolutely incapable of developing such a thing. What secrets is this Olympus hiding?
“Lilina, scan the entire school for life reactions, that guy couldn’t have gone far.”
While Lilina conducted her search, I also began to ponder.
dusa, based on the information obtained from Lin Xue, served as the main person responsible for this city and the surrounding Satellite Cities, effectively acting as a local official. While not very high in the Olympus hierarchy, her status was certainly not sothing ordinary mbers could compare to. What was her personal reason for infiltrating this school?
To conceal her identity? Of course not, there were too many characters capable of doing that, and soone who needed to work every day wouldn’t fit. So, her purpose for staying at this school must definitely have an agenda.
That is to say, the school itself was the reason for dusa staying here.
Instinctively, I thought about the paranormal events occurring here. Based on the energy bursts collected by investigators, if Olympus really was interested in this school, it would likely be due to that mysterious energy source. (To be continued.
