Zeng Fugui was startled by Han Ran's tone. He thought he would see a female ghost when he turned around, but there was nothing there.
No, there's only one wall.
Wait! Zeng Fugui squinted; he noticed new symbols on the wall. "What are these?"
"I don't know either, it's on the floor on the first floor too."
Soon, they found such symbols in many places throughout the teaching building.
At this time, they also encountered Wei Jin, who had injuries on her face, but they did not appear to be serious.
After hearing the whole story from the two of them, Wei Jin finally spoke:
“I believe these symbols are definitely not a coincidence. If Brother Lu were here, he would definitely know what they are.”
“It must be some kind of ritual, right?” Zeng Fugui suddenly said. “I often saw it when I watched horror movies. Generally, it’s used to summon those particularly terrifying demons.”
"A ritual?" Han Ran stroked her chin and nodded. "That's right, it must be some kind of ritual. And he killed so many people here, and through ghost stories no less. It's so complicated, it must be a ritual!"
Wei Jin looked around anxiously and asked, "Have you seen Brother Ye?"
"Ye Bugui is missing?" Only then did the three of them realize this problem.
Ye Bugui's sudden disappearance was indeed hard to believe. However, the group wasn't too anxious, because they were well aware of Ye Bugui's strength.
"Do you remember Brother Ye's props?" Zeng Fugui reassured him, "He might have been summoned by God Lu. It seems they've already started their final showdown, and we can just go through the motions and win without lifting a finger."
Wei Jin and Han Ran did not heed Zeng Fugui's idea of lying down. They returned to the original classroom without hesitation. After pushing open the door, they saw the president and the four corpses at his feet.
On the first night, upon looking at the four corpses, it was the three of them plus Ye Bugui.
But upon closer inspection, the appearance of the corpse changed.
"Stop!" Han Ran shouted immediately, but the president on the other side did not react at all, as if he could not hear him at all.
Han Ran frowned, about to take a step forward, when he noticed Wei Jin tugging at his hand:
"Don't be impulsive, this should be a scene reenactment. We can't change what has already happened."
So they witnessed the entire ceremony firsthand.
The president arranged the nine corpses together, then took a part from each of their bodies and finally reassembled them into an ugly-looking doll.
Luckily, the three of them were experienced players; otherwise, they would have been too disgusted and frightened to watch this scene.
The president then knelt before the doll, said a few words, and then a plume of black smoke suddenly emerged from the doll's body and entered the president's body.
...
Lu Shi trusted Ye Bugui unconditionally; if Ye Bugui said he could do it, then he definitely could.
Their boss this time was unaware of the danger he was about to face; he believed himself to be safe.
He had already planned out the ending. Lu Shi and Ye Bugui fought with all their might and finally killed all the living people he had found.
But they probably don't know that they are currently in the midst of their own ritual, and the people they are killing are merely helping them complete the ritual.
In the end, he will take over the bodies of these two people. Their physical qualities are so much better than his current body!
At this moment, Ye Bugui, who had made such bold statements, did not take any further action. Instead, he raised his head and asked:
"You're a demon, right? I remember every demon has a name."
The president chuckled. What arrogant and foolish people!
Don't they know that they must never utter the devil's name? There will only be one result: they will be watched by it forever, and it will find them no matter where they flee.
So it decided to grant the ignorant demands of these two arrogant humans:
"Of course, you can call me His Excellency Toronto!"
Ye Bugui raised an eyebrow. Why was this demon's name so strange?
However, he still secretly lowered his head, revealing a smug smile.
Lu Shi had been watching Ye Bugui's every move, and he knew that Ye Bugui had definitely set a trap.
The naive devil in front of him seemed to have truly fallen for the trap.
Toronto snorted. He looked at the two humans who were unaware that they were about to be possessed and thought they were really too stupid.
Unfortunately, he lacked the ability to attack, otherwise he would have torn those two people to shreds long ago.
"Weren't you going to kill me? Oh, I forgot to mention, your friends are currently in my memories. When the memories end, everything will restart. And your friends don't belong to this world, so they will be erased."
"If you two don't hurry, they're doomed. Go on a killing spree! I know you can't wait any longer!"
Even a fool would realize by now that killing these people is a trap.
However, most players can't think of a better way to pass the level at this point, so they often grit their teeth and do it anyway.
But Ye Bugui wasn't a fool. He suddenly grabbed Lu Shi's hand and whispered gently in his ear, "Remember to wake me up."
The next second he used his skill, grinning and saying in a mocking tone:
"Enter my town, Your Excellency Toronto."
The next second, the inconspicuous person among the crowd let out a strange cry, but was still pulled into Ye Bugui's town.
...
"Damn it!" Toronto yelled in exasperation. Why did these two intruders have such strange abilities?
It never imagined that one day it would be defeated by its own name.
It quickly calmed down, looked around, and its expression grew increasingly grim, with large beads of sweat dripping down its face.
What a coincidence! This is actually a church!
Demons are often afraid of churches.
The dungeon boss played by Ye Bugui is a vampire prince disguised as a priest, hiding in the church.
This is an A-level dungeon, and Ye Bugui faces even stronger erosion; if he's not careful, he'll forget himself.
But Ye Bugui is not afraid now, because he still has Lu Shi by his side.
Lu Shi was standing in the church at the moment, and his current identity was that of a pastor.
When he saw Ye Bugui, who was wearing a blond hood, a black robe, and carrying a book in his arms, standing behind him, he chuckled.
Ye Bugui coughed and said, "Don't ruin the atmosphere. Next, we're going to deal with a demon!"
“Hmm,” Lu Shi nodded, “A vampire dressed as a priest is going to punish a demon. Doesn’t that sound absurd to me?”
Toronto is furious. Doesn't it have any pride?
So it decided to add a dramatic element to itself, and on the spot, it became the original character.
It was a cloud of black mist. After the demon appeared, Father Ye Bugui immediately directed the priests and nuns present:
"The devil has appeared in the world, may the Lord purify him!"
In this instance, the priests and nuns' chanting can truly exorcise demons.
Then a beam of light descended from the sky, landing on the black mist and purifying it on the spot.
“Uh…” Lu Shi glanced at Ye Bugui and said in a low voice, “Now I think you’re pretty scary compared to me. I’ve cultivated for so many years, after all.”
Ye Bugui grinned, revealing his sharp teeth: "Is that so? Then are you willing to accept my first embrace?"
"What is that?" Lu Shi asked in return.
Ye Bugui did not answer him. Instead, he walked to Lu Shi's side, hugged his pastor from behind, and then, under the surprised gazes of his colleagues, gently bit Lu Shi's neck.
There was no blood, but a tooth mark that belonged only to him was left behind.
Chapter 93
☪ Wedding
“Father Will…”
The round-faced pastor standing closest to them blushed. Good heavens, what was their priest doing...?
“Father Will…”
The round-faced pastor standing closest to them blushed. Good heavens, what was their priest doing? Why was he biting someone's neck?
Wait, are those fangs?
"Sorry," Ye Bugui casually released Lu Shi, only to find that the usually aloof and arrogant Demon Lord's ears were now bright red. "I'm actually a vampire."
As soon as he finished speaking, the pastors present were stunned.
Outside Ye Bugui's town, Wei Jin and the other two sat on the ground, looking bewildered.
"You've been expelled!"
The three of them responded with an "oh," without any further reaction, as if they hadn't heard a bolt from the blue.
Because they had just heard the system notification that they had successfully cleared the dungeon, they were the first team to clear the event dungeon.
This means they will reap huge rewards.
"Oh, right," the exasperated homeroom teacher looked at them as if they were three social outcasts who could be thrown in the trash, "remember to inform Ye Bugui and Lu Shi that they've been expelled too!"
"That's great!" Han Ran exclaimed excitedly, completely ignoring the disdainful look from his homeroom teacher beside him. "This means they're still alive!"
“Isn’t it obvious?” Zeng Fugui stretched and whispered, “And it must have been God Lu and Brother Ye who took down the dungeon boss. They’re both amazing; we just got carried to victory.”
Wei Jin smiled and said, "Yes, it's really reassuring to be with them. Let's exit the instance now!"
"Aren't we going to wait for them to come together?" Han Ran asked immediately.
"Since they haven't shown up yet, they must have something else to do. Let's go outside and talk about it first."
Meanwhile, Modi, still adventuring in the Otherworld, also heard a malicious reminder from the system:
"Breaking news! The first team has already cleared the dungeon! The grand prize for the speedrun dungeon is already secured, so the rest of you better keep up the good work!"
Modi bit his lip, looking like he was about to go crazy with anger.
His teammates lowered their heads and said somewhat fearfully, "We're sorry, boss."
"We're just too bad."
