Perverted Supernatural Academy

Chapter 11

He sensed a slight pulsation in his radiating spiritual energy—the first layer of vibration within Pei Linhai's spiritual body, a vibration of "instinct." If he could penetrate this layer, it would be a vibration of "fundamental consciousness." Once he connected with "fundamental consciousness," he was certain he could enter; he was confident of that.

But strangely, beneath the vibrations of the first layer of "instinct," there was nothing else; no matter how he explored, there was only the vibration of that one layer.

There are roughly three possibilities if this happens.

The first possibility is that Pei Linhai's spirit is sleeping too soundly and is not responding to his spiritual exploration, even the vibration has disappeared -- however, this is a situation that only occurs in people who are about to die, and he should not be like that.

The second possibility is that his spiritual body is vibrating and deliberately hiding, which is often seen in cases of severe autism and mutual repulsion of spiritual energy—however, his relationship with Pei Linhai shouldn't be to the point of mutual repulsion, and someone like Pei Linhai wouldn't be autistic... just look at his stupid behavior...

Then there's the third possibility—something severed Pei Linhai's spiritual vibrations! Someone invaded his deepest consciousness, cutting off his spiritual connection with the outside world, causing him to fall into a coma.

It seems to be the third possibility, but who could possibly possess such power to restrain Pei Linhai, who is at least a Special A-level? In this school, apart from the principal, there shouldn't be anyone with higher spiritual power than him!

So, he was trapped by someone with low spiritual power but extremely strong mental power?

Pei Linhai, you big idiot!

How could you fall for such a trap?!

Let's see how you graduate!

They might stay in this twisted academy for the rest of their lives!

You come out here right now!

asshole!

Peilinhai!

If you don't come out, how am I supposed to get back!

Pei Linhai----------------！！！！！

--I'm here……

A very faint vibration wave. Lou Lifan quickly focused his mind and tried to pinpoint the source of the vibration wave.

Where are you?! Guide me! I need to get in!

--No... I'm trapped...

What is it?

--A powerful mental...bind...help me...

Are you even a man?! If you're so capable, come out yourself! What good are A-level abilities to someone like you?!

--No...that's enough...I was barely managing...I need to go back...

Damn it... Guide me!!!! Quickly!!! I'll get you out of here!!!

-- ……

Suddenly, a small crack appeared beneath Lou Lifan's feet. Pei Linhai's surging energy intensified instantly, and Lou Lifan could vaguely see his hand reaching towards him through the crack. That was the "core"!

--Li Fan...

Just as Lou Lifan was about to jump down, the crack suddenly slammed shut.

This wasn't done by Pei Linhai! There was external interference that severed the sensor beam he had painstakingly sent out and dragged it back!

"Who!? Who is it!?" Lou Lifan angrily looked around. "I know you've been watching! Who is it! Show yourself now! Otherwise, if I catch you, you won't have a good ending!"

A distorted, swirling shadow appeared before Lou Lifan's eyes, gradually becoming clearer. It was the phantom of a seven or eight-year-old boy wearing overalls, with long hair longer than his own body, flowing around him like spider claws.

"You really have no patience, Lou Lifan," the little boy laughed.

Lou Lifan ignored his words and looked directly at him, asking, "Did you catch him?" The appearance of a spirit is the least reliable indicator; no one can determine a person's true face through a spirit. Therefore, even if the person in front of him is such a small child, he cannot be careless. Moreover, the child's spirit isn't even here; what's appearing now is merely a projection sent from a distance.

The little boy didn't answer his question directly, but just smiled and said, "Hello, my name is Tang Xin, and I'm your internship supervisor tonight."

Mentor...

"So, you're the one who caught him?"

Tang Xin still smiled: "Why are you in such a hurry? Your work won't all be finished in a flash. Rushing will make you age faster~^^"

Lou Lifan's face darkened: "I don't care about all that! I'm absolutely certain that you're the one who caught him, aren't you? Let me in!"

"I'll let you in even if you don't tell me." Tang Xin waved her hand, and the invisible "membrane" opened up with a whoosh, revealing a black hole.

Lou Lifan remained unmoved.

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

"...Why did you obstruct me in so easily just now, but now you're letting me in so readily?"

"You're really guarded... Of course I have my own thoughts," Tang Xin said with a smile, tapping her head with her index finger. "But I won't tell you the whole truth right now. Are you going in or not? This offer is only valid once, don't miss it!"

Lou Lifan looked at her for a long time before slowly saying, "I'll go in..."

"That's more like it..."

"But let me tell you, you can play tricks on others, but if you dare to play tricks on me, I won't let you off easily once I get out of here alive."

After saying that, he jumped without hesitation. The crack closed behind him.

"Oh dear... what a selfish person you are..." Tang Xin chuckled. "I'm not so bored as to scheme against you. I only did all this because my perverted father begged me... As for why I let you in? Use your brain and you'll know! The two of you are prone to resonance. If you keep calling out to him like that, he might wake up and eject me, which would be embarrassing... I'm just doing this for my own face... understand?"

The black crack slowly closed.

"...However, you can't hear me... If you knew how easily you guys could resonate with each other, how would we continue with our fun lessons? Oh ho ...

You even said your dad is a pervert... You're probably the same way, aren't you...?

Lou Lifan, who jumped down from the crack, felt no resistance and floated down gracefully. All around him was black scenery, and he could not see anything clearly.

As he descended, he kept hearing sounds, like churning lava. But the sounds were so faint that he always thought it was just his imagination. However, as he gradually approached the "bottom," the sounds became clearer. Only then did he realize that the ground beneath his feet was no longer dark, but something dark reddish-black, wriggling at his distant landing point.

Since entering the cave, it felt like he was in another "dream," no longer sensing any of Pei Linhai's unique vibrations. After searching for a while longer, still finding no vibrations from Pei Linhai, he was almost certain that he had been tricked into someone else's dream by that brat!

However, we can't be so sure. The person who could trap Pei Linhai in a dream must be someone important. Even if Tang Xin really severed all ties between Pei Linhai and him, it wouldn't be surprising. After all, that little boy was the renowned instructor of the "Dream" class at Byte Academy!

As Lou Lifan got closer to the large, writhing unidentified object, he finally saw it clearly: it wasn't churning lava, and the sound wasn't coming from "lava" either, but... a carrion eater!

Carrion-eating demons are the lowest of the demons left behind in the human world. They have almost no intelligence, and their purpose in staying in the human world is to eat rotten things, whether it is rotting corpses, rotting spirits, rotting shikigami, or rotting living souls... (living souls: spirits that have separated from the body while the body is still alive are called living souls). They will not refuse anything that comes their way! Even the life force of a living person is a delicacy for them when they are extremely hungry!

What on earth is going on?! Is it a dream? No! Everything in a dream is illusory; he wouldn't have such a real sense of it! But who would keep such disgusting things in their "dream"? Even someone with the ability to materialize wouldn't! This isn't just one or two, it's a sea of ghosts!

Lou Lifan didn't want to fall into those things. After realizing his situation, he began to look for a way to stay in mid-air. However, in the vast expanse, he could only see a black void and an endless sea of carrion-eating ghosts. There was nowhere for him to stay temporarily.

He descended faster and faster, feeling the heads of the carrion spirits, seemingly in unison, turn towards him, their ravaged and rotten faces filled with excitement. They all fed on decaying food, hence their bodies were all mangled and broken—unlike the dismembered spirits, who were forcibly separated entities, their missing parts the result of long-term decay. The dismembered spirits might recover, but these carrion spirits could never.

Lou Lifan was getting closer and closer, and some impatient carrion ghouls were already climbing up, stepping on their own kind, hoping to catch Lou Lifan as soon as possible and have a good meal.

“I’m not a rotting corpse…you wouldn’t be interested…” Lou Lifan muttered.
