Woody held the box in his hand and stood in front of the security office on the south side of the 'college'.

"Labrador!"

Following a secret word, the iron lock on the box opened.

Woody removed the lock and opened the box.

A crystal that was very familiar to Goethe appeared in his field of vision.

“4T!”

Goethe blurted out.

Then, I reacted.

"wrong!"

"It's a memory crystal!"

Goethe corrected his mistakes, then kept his eyes fixed on his 'four Ts'.

The moment this thing appeared, Goethe automatically classified it into the category of his own things.

No reason.

Definitely not curious about what's inside.

I just simply hope that similar things can return to the 'Xiongbao ancestral land' and have a place to go.

Well, that's it.

Goethe thought of this and controlled more [Second-level Blood Crow Spirits] to enter the academy.

he?

He wanted to get in, too.

But the 'Academy's' disgust towards him kept Goethe calm.

Woody continued.

The male teacher, whose beard was trimmed very delicately, held the Philosopher's Stone in both hands and chanted a long spell in a low voice.

The sound of the incantation echoed in the southern guard post.

No one noticed.

As the 'convoy' is about to leave, everyone's attention is focused on the 'convoy' - because, some people will... reduce their prices at this time.

Many people are watching this moment.

Items that are truly discounted are always fascinating.

This is true for both teachers and students.

So, Woody knew that no one would find out what was going on here.

He has become much bolder.

Especially when the sun hadn't set yet and the gate of the south security office slowly opened!

efficient!

It really works!

There was joy in Hoody's eyes as he stared at the dark and deep door.

He continued to chant the spell, and couldn't help but move forward.

He handed the Philosopher's Stone in his hand toward the door.

A skinny hand with a brass ring appeared.

Skinny, dirty and ugly.

But Woody's whole body began to tremble.

This is Alan's palm!

He recognized not only the hand, but also the ring.

Because he put the ring on this hand himself.

Looking at the skinny palm, Woody almost cried out loud. He didn't know what Alan had experienced, and it was even unimaginable, but he swore that nothing would happen again.

The thoughts running through his mind made Woody a little slower in handing over the Philosopher's Stone.

Suddenly, a feeling of anxiety appeared behind the door.

The skinny palms kept closing and opening, as if trying to grasp something. The veins on the back of the already skinny palms bulged out with such movements, making them look a little hideous and scary.

But Woody didn't feel that at all.

He just thought it was cute.

"Alan, are you impatient?"

"Don't worry, I'll just..."

Woody smiled slightly, said these words, and was about to pass the "Philosopher's Stone" over.

But at this time——

whoosh!

An invisible wind swept across Woody's palm.

The Philosopher's Stone disappeared.

Woody was stunned.

The skinny hand paused.

Obviously, neither Woody nor the skinny hand expected such a change to happen.

“Stop it!”

Hu Di growled and pointed in the direction where the Philosopher's Stone was flying.

An invisible force filled with deathly silence shot out rapidly, like an arrow infused with the name of "death" , and pierced straight through the [Second-Class Blood Crow Spirit].

Can't dodge!

Irresistible!

Only death!

When Goethe was targeted by the arrow, this thought arose from the bottom of his heart.

A [Second-level Blood Crow Spirit] died.

Fortunately, Goethe has more [Second-level Blood Crow Spirits].

Seeing that the Philosopher's Stone was not falling but getting farther and farther away, Woody raised his hand again, but this time he did not shoot the arrow named "Death".

The bony hand grasped him.

At some point, the skinny hand stretched out from behind the door a longer distance, just enough to grab Woody's back.

Inhale!

Woody's flesh and blood is being sucked!

The skinny palm became plump!

Seeing this scene, Woody did not struggle or resist.

He let the arm suck him.

He believed that Alan was just too anxious and did not really want to harm him. As long as he got through the initial anxiety, Alan would definitely regain his senses and let him go.

What if it doesn't release?

He also has no regrets.

He had already prepared for the worst.

only……

I wonder to what extent my flesh and blood can restore Alan?

At this time, Woody was still worried about Alan.

Even when the huge suction force appeared, Woody didn't come back to his senses.

Even when he was picked up by Van der Sar and saw the old woman's face, he was still intoxicated.

"Why did you stop me?"

Woody's face became older and his voice became older as well.

The old woman glanced at the other person and just spoke softly.

"idiot."

Having said that, he threw the other person to the ground and strode towards the South Security Office.

After sucking the energy from Woody's skinny palm, he had turned back into a normal person.

No!

To be precise, she looked like a girl.

Fair and slender.

It was translucent white all the way to the elbows, but it became thinner at the elbows, and became increasingly shriveled and dirty as it went upwards.

The sense of contradiction makes everyone who sees it feel uncomfortable.

"Go back!"

"This is not a place for you to come!"

The old woman shouted.

At the same time, a huge repulsive force emerged from under the old woman's skirt, squeezing the arm like a substance.

anger!

Silent anger!

Even though no sound was heard, the ripples in the air carried this emotion and spread, wave after wave, like a raging sea.

The power contained therein directly blocked the security guards and students who came outside.

Only a few teachers were able to get close.

But the closer they get, the more pressure these teachers feel.

However, it is Van der Sar who is under real pressure.

The enormous pressure mixed with a special force seemed to crush the old woman.

But the old woman chuckled.

"Oh."

"Why do you think I was able to become the vice-principal?"

The old woman said this and waved her hand.

Repulsion superimposed.

And it is full of strange vitality.

The arm was squeezed back behind the door little by little.

Especially when the strange vitality was infused into it, the arm seemed to be burned by fire, shaking continuously, and then shrank back in an instant.

Bang!

The gate of the South Security Department was closed again.

"Block this place!"

"No one is allowed to come near!"

the old woman shouted.

All teachers and security guards took action and the students were signaled to return to the dormitory again.

The conductor Edward, who had been standing at the back of the crowd, walked up to the old Woody.

He observed Hu Di's condition carefully.

As time passed, the train conductor Edward's face became more and more serious.

“That thing…”

The conductor Edward looked at the old woman who walked up to him and wanted to ask something, but was interrupted by the angry old woman.

"You don't even know what a stupid thing you've done!"

"You almost destroyed the 'Academy'!"

The old woman snorted coldly.

Faced with such accusations, Woody didn't care.

"Without her, the 'Academy' has no value at all. Destroy it? Then destroy it."

Hoodie said weakly.

Such words made the old woman, who regarded the "college" as her own private property, furious, and she slapped the old man in the face.

Bang!

The sound is crisp and powerful.

Woody was blown away, his body rolled twice on the ground, and he was about to faint.

However, the next moment, he was sucked back by the old woman.

"What did you just 'wake' that thing up with?"

The old woman questioned.

Faced with such questioning, Woody did not answer at all.

The teacher with a neatly trimmed beard just stared at the old woman with hatred.

Seeing this attitude, the old woman threw Woody at the feet of the conductor Edward.

"Can you help me?"

The old woman asked.

"Can I say no?"

The conductor, Edward, smiled bitterly.

He really wanted to refuse the old woman, but he couldn't because it was about that thing.

"Do you know how many people will suffer because of your stupidity?"

"The simplest one is me in front of you."

"If I could, I would never want to use this ability for the rest of my life. It allows me to peek into your brain, but it also allows me to be completely exposed to you."

“This feeling…”

“It’s really terrible!”

As the train conductor Edward said this, he placed his hands on Woody's temples.

A unique power is activated when the fingers of both hands touch the temples.

"ah!"

Veins bulged around Woody's temples, even around his eyes and on most of his face. The pain was so intense that it went deep into his soul, causing Woody to scream.

At the same time, the train conductor Edward also groaned.

His eyes turned white.

He peered into the secrets deep within Woody's soul.

Even the secrets that Woody himself had forgotten were revealed one by one in his eyes.

He's seen enough.

And know enough.

Finally, he saw the answer he wanted.

"'The Philosopher's Stone'!"

The train conductor Edward raised his hand and let go of Woody, with surprise in his eyes.

As a close minister of the Emperor, Edward certainly knew that some secret organizations had been active in the empire, but he never thought that such organizations could find the 'Philosopher's Stone'.

This is really unexpected.

The train conductor Edward did not hide this from Van der Sa.

Although there are some gaps between the two sides, at certain times, they are true allies.

For example: when facing that thing.

"'The Philosopher's Stone'!"

"Did they actually find the Philosopher's Stone?!"

"Damn it!"

The old woman muttered a few words in a low voice, then looked at Woody and started cursing again - she really didn't know that the organization Woody belonged to could find the "Philosopher's Stone". If she knew, she would keep a close eye on them no matter what.

You know, this is the 'Philosopher's Stone'!

As long as she gets the 'Philosopher's Stone', she will be able to control the entire 'Academy'!

Instead of being 'rations' for that guy.

"Damn it! Bastard!"

The old woman gritted her teeth and slapped Hu Di hard again.

Bang!

Woody was completely awakened by the crisp slap.

Woody, who had just recovered from his trance, recalled the memory of the train conductor Edward he had just seen, and held his head and roared.

“Fake! Fake!”

“They’re all fake!”

"You are all lying to me!"

"Liar! Liar!"

"I'll kill you!"

Woody raised his head and roared, with red eyes, and was about to rush towards the old woman and the conductor.

The old woman raised her hand, and the invisible force controlled the other person in mid-air.

"Kill you! Kill you!"

The bound Woody was still roaring.

"Oh, a guy who can't even accept reality is really stupid!"

The old woman sneered, then looked at the conductor Edward.

"He left it to you."

"Remember, don't let him die in the 'Academy'."

"I don't want him to go in there."

As she spoke, the old woman glanced towards the security office to the south.

Although it is not 100% absolute, most of the people who died in the "Academy" will reappear in the South Security Department. If it were normal times, the old woman would naturally not mind having one more body of Woody in there.

But when Woody got involved with that thing...

It’s better to be careful!

"Yes, I know."

The train conductor Edward also knew about this.

There was no refusal, let alone rejection, because Hu Dike now knew his secret.

There are many secrets that cannot be seen by others.

So, there was no hesitation.

Bang!

The train conductor Edward punched Woody hard in the abdomen.

The huge force made Woody faint.

"Go and put him in car '13'."

The train conductor Edward said to his men.
