To save his friend, more and more students chose to follow behind Chen Ge. Most of them were there to escape, but from the moment they made that choice, something had changed.
"Is this the school's approval?" The painter's gaze made Chen Ge feel like he had fallen into a frozen sea, but a warmth radiated from the students around him. It was a strange feeling like he was being wrapped in warm blood, but it was not uncomfortable.
"If a living person like me obtains the school's approval, who knows what kind of chaos it will cause, but there's no better way."
Chen Ge turned his head and forced himself to stop paying attention to the painter. The chill on his back slowly disappeared.
"He didn't notice anything, right?" After running ten meters, Chen Ge looked out the window again. To his shock, the painter's dark eyes were still looking at him, but they were not looking at him but at his shadow.
The mirror in the sky was almost consumed by the blood storm, but the painter did not move. He seemed to only be able to paint ghosts, and the man in the storm was not a ghost.
He had not told anyone about that, not even Chang Wenyu.
The mirror was becoming more unstable. The painter was able to fight three alone, other than his own power, he had borrowed the school's consciousness. He kept dismantling the mirror that represented the school's consciousness and gained power close to the limit of a Red Specter.
"This is troublesome." The painter used blood vessels to wrap around the 'canvas' that he had torn from his body. He dragged his twisted body toward the eye of the storm.
The man in the fog did not know what was going on. When he saw the painter, he attacked the mirror even more crazily.
Actually, this monster was scarier than everyone expected, but he had been holding back. To not be seen by the painter, he had been hiding in the fog.
Greedy but cautious, always placing his own life above all else. Only someone with that kind of personality would be able to survive at the edge of the red city.
The blood storm cut through the painter's body like knives, but the painter did not care about that. His dark eyes stared at a certain spot in the storm.
Everyone who looked into his eyes felt his eyes were scary, and the man in the storm was no exception.
The painter's special power was too much of a shock to the man. Seeing the painter approach, he stopped hiding his power.
An arm covered in black veins extended from the eye of the storm. The skin of the arm was not much different from that of a living person, but the black veins on it were terrifying.
Black blood flowed through his body, making him look like a human and a ghost at the same time. This arm was familiar to everyone who saw it. It was as if they had seen it in a nightmare many years ago, but they could not remember the specific details at the moment.
At first, the man in the eye of the storm only revealed one arm, but as the arm continued to extend outwards, his arm and shoulder were also revealed, and the hospital gown he was wearing was also revealed.
Rather than saying that it was worn on his body, it was more accurate to say that the hospital gown had grown into his flesh, making it impossible for him to take it off for the rest of his life.
Upon closer inspection, one would realize that the gown that the man was wearing was similar to the one worn by the 'doctor' at the school's hospital. They should have escaped from the same place, but one had escaped to the red city, and the other had hidden in the School of the Afterlife.
Chen Ge saw the change outside the education block. When the patient's gown was revealed, a strong sense of anxiety rose in his heart.
The man in the fog probably came from the cursed hospital as well, a patient that had escaped from the hospital.
Just a patient that had escaped was already so scary, so how scary would the hospital itself be?
Actually, Chen Ge knew that even though they were both four-star scenarios, the cursed hospital and the School of the Afterlife were not on the same level. Just like the Third Sick Hall and the underground morgue, they were both three-star scenarios, but the underground morgue was several times more difficult than the Third Sick Hall.
One door pusher was Doctor Gao, and the other was Meng Nan. If Meng Nan fought against Doctor Gao alone, the result would be obvious.
The School of the Afterlife and the cursed hospital should be the same. One door pusher had died a long time ago, and only the school's consciousness was left. The other had extended their reach so far that the whole of Jiujiang could see their shadows.
If he were to rank the known four-star scenarios on the black phone according to their difficulty, the School of the Afterlife would be the easiest, followed by the ghost fetus, and finally, the cursed hospital would be the last.
"I've gotten involved with the cursed hospital. Based on the non-smiler, the hospital will definitely come to find me. The ghost fetus knows that I've killed the shadow, so he will come to find me as well …" Chen Ge could not share his troubles with others. A normal person would not attract the attention of a Red Specter no matter how hard they tried, but Chen Ge was being targeted by two four-star scenarios at the same time.
"I haven't done anything that has crossed the line."
While Chen Ge was thinking, the situation outside the education block changed again. The man in the fog melted his arm into the mirror. The black blood that flowed through his body appeared to be a kind of poison that could affect one's memory and emotions. The blood red mirror cracked on a large scale.
The man abandoned his arm, and the mirror crumbled completely. Memories filled the room, and the sound of crying echoed in the students' ears. It sounded like the School of the Afterlife was crying.
The mirror cracked, and all the buildings and scenarios inside the mirror crumbled, including the library and the lab that the painter once stood in.
However, to everyone's surprise, the last building to crumble was the education block on the eastern campus.
The building collapsed layer by layer, and the rooms disappeared one after another until only the toilet at the end of the fourth-floor corridor was left.
The dried blood vessels covered the room in layers. With the invasion of the black blood, the layers of blood vessels peeled off. The cubicles of the toilet became illusory, and the cubicle doors started to disappear until they reached the last cubicle.
Chen Ge had been there before. He remembered clearly that the last cubicle did not have a door.
When the last layer of blood vessels peeled off, the cubicles with doors all disappeared, and a door appeared in the cubicle that did not have a door.
The door appeared to have been there all along. Thinking back, this door that did not exist on the eastern and western campuses was actually the only real door that existed on both campuses.
When the illusion shattered, the real door appeared.
The last cubicle of the fourth-floor toilet was where the door pusher of the School of the Afterlife had pushed open the door that led to the blood world.
Without the obstruction of the mirror, everyone at the school could see the door.
It was covered in cracks like it had been broken before being pieced back together bit by bit.
