At Scholomance, everyone had their own agenda, and they made different choices for their own goals and benefits.
The tragedy came, Chang Wenyu disappeared, the painter fought the monsters in the red city, and the Top Red Specters did not have the energy to care about other people. This gave Chen Ge a chance.
But along with the opportunity, there was also danger.
Yin Hong and Xu Yin could feel that something was awakening in the red city. If they could not leave in a short time, when more monsters appeared, the School of the Afterlife would be sealed, and the well would be discovered.
"Quick!"
To reach the northern side of the school, one had to go through the center of the school. All the teachers and managers were gathered there, including Mr. Lei, who had met Chen Ge once before.
"Don't panic! Stay in your classrooms! " Mr. Lei and the other teachers tried their best to maintain order. They were happy to see Chen Ge. In this kind of chaos, the stronger one was, the more popular they were. "You're here as well! I'll leave the few classrooms on the west side to you. If we work together, we'll definitely survive … "
Before the teacher finished, he saw Chen Ge and a few Red Specters walk past him and head toward the northern side of the school.
"Hey! Where are you going? Don't waste your energy blindly! Relying on the school's defense is the best solution! " Mr. Lei's voice was stern. Even though he did not like Chen Ge, he was saying that for Chen Ge's sake.
"I need to save them!" Chen Ge's eyes scanned the students in the classroom. "My friends are at the northern side. I cannot watch them be consumed by the fog!"
"Are you crazy? Who knows how many monsters you'll run into if you cross the school? Even if there are Red Specters among you, they will gang up on you. They are not afraid of Red Specters! " The other teacher next to Mr. Lei also tried to stop him. They did not want Chen Ge to leave. From their perspective, that was too risky and unnecessary.
"I know it's dangerous." Chen Ge's eyes scanned the classroom. The children inside were also looking at him. They were all curious about what kind of person he was, who would run out to save people under such circumstances. "But that is the difference between you and me."
After saying that, Chen Ge did not stay any longer. "Those who are willing to follow me can follow behind me. Those who are unwilling, I won't force you. Take refuge here first, and we'll meet up at the center of the school later."
After leaving behind a portion of the weaker students, Chen Ge's team sped up significantly.
Looking at their backs as they left, the teachers had complicated looks in their eyes.
"What are you waiting for? Do you still have time to be in a daze? "Dean Lei shouted at the teachers and then began to reinforce the doors and windows of the classroom.
When the blood tide came, no one would be able to escape. Everyone was a lone boat that could sink at any time, so protecting themselves was not something shameful.
Crossing the school was more difficult than Chen Ge expected. Visibility was low in the blood fog, and due to various reasons, the corridors inside the school seemed to have changed.
From the field, Mu Yang High School looked close to the north of the school, but in reality, they had to walk a long way to get there.
All the Red Specters were covered in blood, but it was still acceptable. After being showered with blood, the few employees from Haunted House had become stronger, especially Bai Qiulin and Foul Odor.
Bai Qiulin had consumed Xiong Qing's heart. Even though he had become a Red Specter, he was weaker than Xu Yin, who had found his heart on his own. However, after so many battles, he had been reborn.
From Li Wan City to the School of the Afterlife, Chen Ge had given him plenty of opportunities to train. Ol 'Bai was no longer the gambler he used to be.
The other surprise that came to Chen Ge was Foul Odor. After the boy found his Red Specter body, he had shown a very scary side. His power was related to smell.
Without Chen Ge's reminder, the boy stood at the back of the group alone. All the monsters and Specters that tried to ambush him were stopped by him, and it looked like he had it easy.
Foul Odor should still have the memory of his time at the Haunted House. He was friendly toward Chen Ge and the other employees, but he hated the natives at the school. That seemed to be because he had been through some bad things at the school.
With the Red Specters leading the way, Chen Ge's group moved very fast. After taking some detours, they successfully reached the northern side of the school.
Here, they also saw another type of monster in the blood mist.
It was about five meters tall, and it crawled down the corridor. Its body was covered in mouths, and the disgusting thing was that every mouth was filled with human teeth. They looked scary.
"What is this thing?"
No one there had seen it before. The monster before them seemed to have escaped from a child's nightmare. Its body was twisted. It looked like a human, but it could not be connected to a human.
"If it dares to block our way, we'll kill it." Chen Ge was confident. As long as it was not a Top Red Specter, he did not care.
Xu Yin, the headless woman, and Yin Hong walked at the front. The three Red Specters attacked at the same time, and they tortured the monster to death.
Its ending was horrible. The few Red Specters had not seen this kind of monster before, so they were very careful. They tore it into pieces and used blood vessels to pierce through every part of its body.
After the monster died, its body turned into dried blood vessels, but it was worth noting that even after it died, its heart was still beating.
The heart was much smaller than a living person's heart, and it was painted with strange patterns.
After Xu Yin removed the heart, he handed it to Chen Ge. This heart seemed to be very useful to Specters.
Seeing the desire in the eyes of the few Red Specters, Chen Ge thought about it and returned the heart to Xu Yin. "It's yours now. If you see something like this next time, you can discuss how to split it among yourselves."
Xu Yin held the slightly twisted heart, and excitement crossed his eyes. His pale fingers peeled open the heart, and there was a drop of black and red blood that had not coagulated yet.
After absorbing this drop of blood, Xu Yin's wounds started to recover, and his body became more solid and scary.
Seeing the drop of black blood, Chen Ge thought it looked familiar. He had seen it once at the Society of Strange Tales's building. It was stored inside a wooden box, and at the time, the box had been taken away by Zhang Ya.
After consuming the black blood, Zhang Ya had been asleep for some time.
"The Society of Strange Tales has hunted monsters like this before? They've also entered the red city? " As the only surviving member of the Society of Strange Tales, there were still many things that Chen Ge did not understand. These secrets should all be in Doctor Gao's mind, but unfortunately, Doctor Gao had already gone mad, and there was no telling when he would wake up.
"If there's a chance, I should go to the Society of Strange Tales's nest to take a look. I haven't seen much before, so I might have missed some good stuff."
