Academic gathering with a lich-Chapter 766 - 707 Lich Disaster - Two-Dimensional
Yes, The Three Musketeers of the Literature Club still triumphed, they won their acquittal, although their victory looked uglier than defeat. The audience at Andrei Academy erupted in loud applause, and every lich looked anew at this enforcer from Andrei. Mr. Law had proven his talent to all, treading on the pain of The Three Musketeers of the Literature Club.
The outcome was unexpected, a refreshing surprise for all; everyone praised the "loser," and the three who knelt by Mr. Law’s side, clinging tightly to the hem of his trousers, were like water ghosts drowning in a swamp, their desperate ugliness only making Mr. Law appear more imposing. The liches enjoyed screams and wails, especially those of the Literature Club. Their piercing screams were like the horn blasts of a celebration, reminding everyone that this was the final court of the Lich Disaster, and a pleasant part of the academic gala.
Mr. Dark dragged the three away, while the Master of Darkness expressed his displeasure towards the three beings dragged along.
"They are but mere possessions, you’ve greatly disappointed me."
With their hopes crushed to ashes, the journalist was listless, the gentleman still had a breath in him, groaning weakly and hollowly.
"Boss, we shouldn’t care, but... but that was so much money. It was everything we had accumulated..."
These words did not resonate with Mr. Dark, as he never dealt with finances. The Literature Club had become innocent bystanders, and the Dark emerged with the victory they desired, exiting the venue with their followers. It didn’t matter if the people or the club were unaffected, nothing else mattered.
Mr. Law watched the doors slowly close, then turned to salute the judges’ bench, where the headmaster’s applause was even more enthusiastic, expressing his gratification for the enforcer’s effort.
He thought to himself that he had overcome setbacks and made new progress, and perhaps it was time to press the advantage...
Mr. Law’s gaze shifted to one side; The Three Musketeers of the Literature Club were just an appetizer, the masterminds of the Lich Disaster were not them, someone should be held accountable for the losses Andrei suffered.
Lyle noticed the sharp gaze of Mr. Law, who had undergone a transformation. As an up-and-coming star at Andrei, he shrank his neck, revealing an awkward smile, and waved at the senior.
A simple act of friendliness became a signal in the eyes of some.
The Spirit Summoning Studies seats erupted into chaos.
The White Bone Fraction professors stood up abruptly, with spines, arms, and sternums sprouting new skeletons to form hard-shell bone shields and weapons, along with even more exaggerated armors. Within the gaps of the bones, the soul flames also took on a few shades of a cold, pale color.
The Flesh Fraction underwent even more bizarre transformations, with tendrils and keratin growing from beneath the professors’ sleeves, and distorted entities eroding and fusing into each other, resulting in a flesh orb connecting all the professors appearing in the vacant space, its center splitting open a slender crack, out of which were countless densely grouped eyes.
The Soul Fraction remained motionless, quietly floating there, staring at Mr. Law with eyes as somber as the soil beneath tombstones. Those eyes sent chills down one’s spine, and Mr. Law was sure this eerie sense of being watched would persist hereafter, from his own walls, desk, and papers. Wraiths are elusive and omnipresent, as long as they will it.
What completely dispelled Mr. Law’s thoughts was the Spear of Light that rose from the group of oddities, held in Raymond’s hand and kept in sync with Lyle’s waving, swaying its tip back and forth but always pointing at Mr. Law.
There was more than one unreasonable person in Andrei, and Mr. Law had just proven his debate skills by directly defeating the Three Musketeers of legal sophistry from Andrei. Neither Raymond nor the Spirit Summoning Studies Professor Group would give him a chance to speak.
"I have no issues now, the academic gathering takes precedence. I will allocate part of the donations received for the renovation and rebuilding of the ancient Andrei Castle, such as allowing enthusiastic clubs like the Literature Club to work for a fee."
The headmaster finally nodded, proclaiming the end of the final court. Before leaving, he instructed Lyle and Raymond to visit his office.
To update the records of Salvation Association members.
In the enchanted Spiral Tower, Lyle spent an afternoon in the top-floor office. He received neither punishment nor reproach; the headmaster was more concerned with the causes behind the formation of the Lich Disaster and the impact caused by Lyle. With the return of the Lich Crown, Lyle left the headmaster’s office.
The Calamity of Holy Light and the Principal were alone in a room.
Hand of Greed was transcribing upon the archives, and Raymond’s presence seemed to have some effect on this writing tool, causing the handwriting to be somewhat crooked and twisted.
Updating the personal archive of Mr. "Plague Doctor," a member of the Salvation Association.
Elevating the threat level of the Plague Doctor from "Nation Destroyer" to "Civilization Destroyer".
Following a scholarly meeting on dream simulation in which Mr. Plague Doctor actively participated, another Lich Disaster erupted. After communication with Mr. Plague Doctor himself, this Lich Disaster was named "Lich Disaster - Two-Dimensional," the reason being that the liches subject to the experiment would endure an onslaught of heretical knowledge from another dimension, resulting in altered personalities and abilities. They would fantasize about being a group of otherworldly visitors who had traversed to our world, the so-called "protagonists" according to the Plague Doctor. They displayed the inherent arrogance and foolishness of humans, having no chance of getting close to becoming part of Andrei.
It is noteworthy that during this academic gathering, Mr. Plague Doctor unexpectedly demonstrated the power of "justice" to the Salvation Association, the "justice" dominated by the "Punishing Angel." As a high-order power of idealistic Holy Light, the concept of "justice" possesses the partial authority to create power. We are unable to articulate how this miraculous function works, whether it is related to the creationism extolled by the Holy Light Church, even the "Punishing Angel" himself knows very little about this ability. To quote his own words...
"For a target I can eliminate with one strike, why bother with all this superfluous stuff?"
The research value of the Plague Doctor has once again been raised; he is not only the future creator of liches but also may help us parse the true power of some high-order power wielders. I am unable to judge whether this change is good or bad. As the Plague Doctor weaves more intricate splendor, he is also being imbued with various powers. Considering the potential of the "Ominous Embryo," this is the first time I am worried about introducing other powers to Andrei.
The Lich Disaster has been quelled, and the suggested approach towards the Plague Doctor remains to earnestly draw him in.
For we cannot predict the future’s good or bad, but I firmly believe that with him, the future will definitely be extraordinary.
Mr. Principal put down the hand supporting his cheek, twirled his beard, and glared at the Calamity of Holy Light standing beside him. After the Principal had delivered his concluding remarks, Raymond had been maintaining his applause. Although there was a slight tendency to coerce the Principal, Raymond stood there, waiting for the outcome of the archive update.
The Principal craned his head towards his dazzling collection as if struck by a thought. Seizing the Hand of Greed, which had already moved to the edge of the desk, poised to dive into a pile of gold coins and gemstones, the Principal added something new to the archive.
Attach special attention to the group.
The Dark Sect, also known as the Literature Club. A complex lich society selected by the "Avenging Angel" based on certain standards, usually a bunch of troublemakers, they have contributed much to the entertainment activities of Andrei. However, since the Plague Doctor joined Andrei, this rebel legion, along with the creativity shown by the Plague Doctor, spurred some lively and miraculous catalytic reactions.
Record, Lich Disaster - Gluttonous, transformed state, Dark Scavenger Mushroom Legion, with a plague-like infectivity to liches.
Record, Lich Disaster - Two-Dimensional, transformed state, Legion of Light Warriors, with Holy Light-like destructive power to liches.
Today, the Literature Club has undergone two transformations in the Lich Disasters caused by the Plague Doctor, each posing a certain degree of danger to Andrei Academy.
We are still uncertain whether this peculiar group will possess more ideological transformations and attack modes in the future.
As a member of the Salvation Association and the Principal of Andrei Academy, should I make the eradication of the Literature Club a goal?
Agreeing with "Iron Mask" proposal, doubling the punishment for the Literature Club, as a warning to others.
The Principal muttered to himself.
"If it can be caught..."
