Chapter 59 Lin Chen deduces the truth of the copy
Lin Chen happily let the spiritual thorn fly in the air twice before finally retracting it into his body.
He found that in just less than twenty seconds, his mental power had already been consumed to a certain extent. And this was when he had retracted the mental thorns and transformed them back into mental power. If he really used the mental thorns to attack others, he might not be able to release a second one in a short period of time.
This made Lin Chen feel regretful for a long time.
"It seems that it can only be used at critical moments."
Lin Chen sighed.
At this time, the principal ghost outside the door was still knocking on the door vigorously, and the cursing never stopped.
"You beast, open the door for me! I will make you burn in the flames for ten days and ten nights, making your life worse than death!"
"Go ahead and hide. I'll see how long you can hide!"
"Damn it! When they turned into copies, they shouldn't have imposed this game protection on the students' dormitories!"
Lin Chen was amused. He was originally a little surprised that a native ghost, which was an NPC in the dungeon, would have additional protection on its residence.
This just doesn't make sense.
Now he knew that it was the principal who did it...
Although Wu Yu's behavior of protecting the native ghosts is completely unnecessary, it also shows that no matter what state this principal ghost is in, he is kind to the student ghosts from the bottom of his heart.
Lin Chen felt a little emotional, but at the same time he couldn't help but feel curious.
The copies of the horror game once existed in reality, of course, this is not necessarily the blue planet where he is.
For example, the foreman ghost used to be the foreman of the Haunted Restaurant. For some reason, the restaurant turned into a copy, and this foreman also turned into the copy BOSS, the foreman ghost.
He still follows the same routine as before he died, appearing in the restaurant after work during the day and leaving after get off work at night.
It is the same with this devil school. No matter how naughty the students are, they have to enter the classroom when the bell rings.
The principal, Gui, is wholeheartedly trying to improve students' academic performance and pass the so-called assessment in twenty days in order to retain the title of a key high school.
For this reason, the principal ghost always had a sad and stressed look on his face during the day.
And all of this is the same as what happened when they were alive, except that he has become a ghost...
The copy introduction in the forum is also like this. Lin Chen and his team will end it at the moment before the student ghost enters the examination room, and the final score will be calculated based on the judgment of the horror game.
Because what happened next was that the assessment failed, a fire burned down and buried the entire school, and eventually the school became a copy, the principal became the copy boss, and the students became student ghosts.
After Lin Chen entered the copy, after fighting with the principal ghost and gaining information throughout the day, Lin Chen already had a rough idea of the truth about the devil school.
Lin Chen believed that the fire that killed all the students in the school was definitely set by the ghost of the principal.
Faced with the fact that his school was about to lose its title as a key high school, the ghost principal's long-suppressed emotions erupted, and he radically ignited a huge fire that buried the school.
This seems very reasonable.
After all, as long as the school is destroyed before it is announced to have lost its status as a key high school, it will retain the title of a key high school forever.
Although crazy, it is impossible for a principal ghost who can become a fierce god to not be crazy.
There is another reason why Lin Chen guessed that the principal ghost was the arsonist, and that is the flame tattoo on the principal ghost's body.
This is not just a tattoo, it's also a terrifyingly powerful form of fire magic.
After the red flame appeared, it suppressed the thunder magic in an instant and made Lin Chen feel the scorching heat. If it weren't for Lin Chen's talent for fire power that provided a certain degree of damage immunity to fire attacks, he would probably have been reduced to ashes the moment he faced the fire magic.
As soon as it appeared, it triggered the wailing of all the native ghosts in the school, an evil fire filled with despair, resentment, anger, sadness, and destruction.
Moreover, his appearance also represents the start of hell mode. The fact that he could cause such a big commotion must be related to the fire that burned down the entire school that year.
The principal has two states, which seem more like two personalities, one is decent during the day, and the other is crazy and evil at night.
These two personalities are completely opposite, but judging from the principal ghost's yelling and constant knocking on the door, both personalities are equally good to students.
So Lin Chen was confused.
Would a principal who couldn't even turn evil and leave his students behind really set the entire school on fire?
This is what makes him confused about the location.
"Forget it. I don't understand the world of madmen."
Finally, Lin Chen shook his head, closed his ears and covered himself with the embroidered quilt amid the principal's banging on the door and cursing.
He fell into a deep sleep.
That night, except for Lin Chen and the students in Class 2 of Grade 3 who were in a coma, no one, including ghosts, in the school slept well.
Human players were kept awake all night by the reminder sounds of the horror game.
One moment the hell mode is about to be turned on, the next moment it is about to be turned off. The whole process is like riding a roller coaster, which makes even these "battle-hardened" old players feel a little overwhelmed.
Among them, several people who had scolded Lin Chen in the game channel regretted it so much that they tossed and turned in their beds. After all, the way Lin Chen dealt with the student ghosts was too scary.
They thought they were going to die, so they cursed, but the hell mode didn't start... and they didn't hear the notification sound that Uncle Chen was eliminated.
Now that they have offended "Uncle Chen", even if the hell mode is not activated, they will not have an easy time in the future.
While regretting, some of them opened the chat system again.
Soon, in addition to the human player chat group, an "anti-Uncle Chen confrontation group" was also established.
As for the student ghosts in the school, after feeling the pain from their souls, they also lost their sleepiness and all sat on their beds in a daze, not knowing what they were thinking.
The female student ghosts in the girls' dormitory building where Lin Chen and the principal ghost were located were not greatly affected, because they had already been awakened from that special state by the principal ghost's knocking on the door and cursing.
But it was still difficult to fall asleep because the noise made by the principal's ghost was too loud.
Especially the female student ghosts on the fourth floor, they all hid in their beds, shivering.
After all, from the screams of the principal ghost, they could tell that a female student ghost had already died, which made them feel that the door in front of them, which had absolute protection, was no longer safe.
As for the person who worked the hardest that night, it was the ghost principal.
He stood in front of Lin Chen's door, shouting and cursing all night long.
The principal's ghost's voice did not stop until dawn.
At the moment when the sky was getting light, all the student ghosts fell asleep, and the principal ghost slowly returned to his normal state. His body shrank back to normal, the spikes on his body returned to his body, and his face was no longer as ferocious.
He looked at the door in front of him with a complicated expression and remained silent for a long time.
The sky was bright and Lin Chen opened his eyes at this moment. He opened his closed hearing, stretched his body, and looked around unconsciously.
Suddenly, the remaining sleepiness in his body disappeared without a trace, and he was stunned on the spot.
He saw a shirtless middle-aged man sitting on the bed opposite him, looking at him with hope in his eyes.
Oh shit!
rogue?
abnormal?
Damn, the ghost principal!
After Lin Chen's mind was in a mess for a while, he stood up and looked at the ghost principal as if he was facing a great enemy.
How did this guy get in?
The principal said ghostly, "Teacher Chen, are you awake? I'm sorry for disturbing your sleep last night."
Lin Chen: “…”
