AnalogHorror: Rule Kaidan 4016-Chapter 1540 - 733: Continuing the Voyage of the Black Mist Era (Part 3)

Looking back now, every one of these fights was practice for this very moment!

It turns out, they had already gone through countless trials for today’s battle!

It turns out, their training from start to finish was all for today!

"Kill—!"

"Smash them!!"

"Kill the little devils!!"

"Kill—!"

The Sports Students were full of fighting spirit, countless nocturnal species became their targets for training, and as they continued to drive back the nocturnal species, their stamina started to deplete quickly. They soon became exhausted, but their spirit and will remained high, even showing signs of reaching a breakthrough.

At the edge of the deck, the School Doctor strolled gracefully with a pocket watch in hand. Whenever an ultimate form nocturnal species broke through the defenses of the Physical Education Teacher and the Sports Students, she would calmly eliminate it.

Though elderly, she was incredibly elegant and poised. Whenever she acted, before her body even moved, a shadow wielding a scythe would flash by her, and the ultimate nocturnal species would be killed instantly.

In this endless tide of nocturnal species, the ultimate forms were already one in a million. Each one had supernatural traits almost akin to the security guard, yet these beings were effortlessly slain by the School Doctor.

The Physical Education Teachers looked surprised at the School Doctor’s methods. Clearly, even the teachers who often interacted with her were unaware of this particular skill of hers.

Yet, for some reason, they saw a further opportunity through her presence.

As if... it was a path.

Finally, amidst the endless battle, the physically and mentally exhausted Xu Shunkang first found a chance for a breakthrough. He let out a long cry, and the bat in his hand suddenly transformed into a massive, sky-blue scythe.

Wielding the sky-blue scythe, his breath rose continuously, surpassing some of the Physical Education Teachers, reaching the level of a security guard.

"This... what is this feeling...?!" He looked at his current state in shock; this was a peak he had never reached before! 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"This path is called... ’Fog Nightmare Hunter’, one of the upper sequences of the ’Dawn Walker’. Unfortunately, it is not a unique sequence," a kindly and gentle voice sounded in Xu Shunkang’s ear, calming his excited emotions.

Xu Shunkang looked towards the voice, seeing the School Doctor elegantly watching him.

"’Fog... Nightmare... Hunter’?" Xu Shunkang felt the illusory yet real giant scythe in his hand, feeling an enlightenment deep in his heart.

"Feel it slowly, adapt slowly, perhaps soon, more and more classmates will awaken to this path," the School Doctor said, retracting her gaze. At this moment, she had no time or energy to guide a newcomer who just became a ’Fog Nightmare Hunter’.

But it wasn’t important because whether it was the ’Fog Nightmare Hunter’ or the ’Butcher’, they were sequences that grew stronger with battle.

Xu Shunkang looked at the School Doctor, then was surprised to find a shadow floating beside her!

It was an absolutely beautiful persona, seemingly in her early twenties, clad in ancient but snug leather armor, her features bearing an uncanny resemblance to the School Doctor’s, as if she was the School Doctor in her younger days...

The beautiful shadow wielded a purple scythe shrouded in grayish-black breath. The scythe itself was ethereal but covered with secret marks, filled with an ephemeral yet fierce killing intent.

"Fog Nightmare Hunter..." Xu Shunkang murmured, as a frenzied killing intent gradually surfaced in his eyes. The energy that was about to be exhausted suddenly surged back, quickly filling his entire body, enhancing his combat power, and he fiercely retaliated against the nocturnal species that had invaded the ship’s range.

And on the ship, similar situations to Xu Shunkang’s began to sprout up rapidly like bamboo shoots after rain. Both Physical Education Teachers and Sports Students were successively breaking through paths, entering this higher level.

Looking at this scene, there was no trace of relief on the School Doctor’s face, only a look of worry.

"The path that was severed countless years ago, once more descends from time..."

"Fog Nightmare Hunter... Butcher... It seems soon, the security guard will also be completed..."

...

"Is that... ’the last Fog Nightmare Hunter’?" Watching the beautiful shadow hovering beside the School Doctor, Lin Yi couldn’t help but be in a daze.

Boss slowly said, "She’s the last Fog Nightmare Hunter of the Black Mist Era, but soon, the Sports Students will also become Fog Nightmare Hunters..."

Lin Yi gently pressed his lips, the Sports Students fighting fiercely were unaware, but he knew very well the mystery within.

Just like how there was insufficient nature’s spiritual energy during the cultivation era, the supernatural power within the campus was limited, not enough to support the Sports Students’ breakthrough beyond the limits. Only those like him, Boss, and the Principal, who had already reached certain heights, could continually "recover" or maintain power by connecting with the layers.

But as reality distanced, and they delved deeper into the layers, supernatural traits and contamination multiplied exponentially, enough to fill their limits, prompting the successive breakthroughs of the Physical Education Teachers and Sports Students.

However, breaking through is not necessarily a good thing.

The increase in contamination often signifies a detachment from reality.

For example, the Principal, no matter how much he retains his humanity, the authorities dare not allow him to leave S City University.
