"Strange, if she is the creator of the box scene of the Wraith Academy, why doesn't she use the box scene's ability to deal with me?"
Instead, use this pure physical attack to deal with me? From Ji Le's point of view, Lacey's unorganized attack was like a child's mischief.
Ji Le easily dodged her attack, but the opponent's momentum continued unabated and he charged at her again.
More and more passers-by came around. Except for the people in the first row whose eyes were a little dull at the beginning, the people who came around from behind all looked surprised.
"what happened?"
"Two people fighting?"
"He was wearing Sheriff's Department clothes and it didn't look like a normal fight."
"Is that our teacher?"
"Teacher Lacey? Is she back? I remember she has disappeared."
"Who can inform the Public Security Department? Wait, he is from the Public Security Department, so is Teacher Lacey a bad person?"
Lacey's several attacks ended in failure. In the end, Ji Le snatched the dagger away and bound her hands, making her unable to move.
Ji Le put Lacey's hands behind her back and observed the woman.
The other person's hands were very warm, and he could feel her breathing and see her helpless eyes.
This should be a living person, right?
In fact, the box scene this time was so abnormal that he was not sure whether his feelings were correct.
If Lacey is a living person, and assuming that she is the creator of the box scene of the Wraith Academy, then she is either obsessed with uniting with the dead like Li Xiang, inherits the wishes of the dead, coexists with the dead in a cooperative mode, and can use the dead box view. Or just like the detectives of the Special Crime Unit, they recycle the game's secondary cards and match them manually to become qualified candidates for the secondary cards.
However, in the latter method, only part of Hakokage's power can be used.
Thinking back to the Wraith Academy that I entered before, that kind of stable and large-area box scene is not something that can be used by those who are qualified as secondary cards.
Therefore, Lacey may have reached a cooperation with a deceased person.
Who is the deceased? What is their common obsession? So far, no clues.
The only thing that is certain is that Lacey wants to educate students according to her own educational philosophy, even if this educational philosophy goes against the current social norms.
"Don't force me, it's not good for you or us." Lacey turned her head back and glared at Ji Le.
Ji Le was startled, but still didn't let go of Lacey's hands.
A normal person's head cannot rotate 180 degrees.
"Did you practice any jujitsu?" Ji Le asked subconsciously.
Or is Lacey not a living person at all?
"I don't want to offend the Public Security Department, and I don't want to offend you. Taking you into the other world was a complete accident, so I took you out quickly. Just pretend you don't know anything and leave here, okay?" Xi really doesn't seem to want to cause trouble.
"But I've been involved." Ji Le replied. "I've seen so much, you can't let me go, can you? What other skills do you have, just show them in one go. We are so familiar with each other, there is no need to pretend anymore."
"You have created a lifeless world. It has no impact on reality. It is just your own fantasy. I don't care about this. It is your freedom."
"But you controlled the school in reality, blocked the Utopia network, restricted the flow of information, and controlled so many people..." Ji Le looked at the people gathered in the front row. "You are affecting public order. Even if I don't come, my colleagues will have to come sooner or later."
"It's fortunate that I'm here, because I'm different from my colleagues and my purpose is different. All I want is to solve the incident here and recover the game's secondary card."
"I have confessed so much, you should also learn from me."
Lacey was silent for a moment and looked at Ji Le: "Do you think I don't want to deal with you? It's not that I don't want to, but that I can't. Like me, you don't have a brain terminal installed, so I can't change you."
"I don't understand what you are talking about? What does it have to do with whether I install a brain terminal and whether you can change me?" Ji Le dragged Lacey and started to move towards the school gate. "Since I can't explain it here, I'll take you out of the campus or even bring you to the Public Security Department for questioning."
"No, no!" Lacey screamed, but she couldn't break free from Ji Le's imprisonment with human strength alone.
"You are forcing me, forcing me to ruin everything! You devil, why are you meddling in your own business!"
A change occurred, and Lacey's body began to glow, melt, and slip away from Ji Le's hands into a ball of light.
The onlookers were stunned. They looked at the ball of light that Lacey had turned into, with doubts in their eyes.
The ball of light floated into the air and gradually took on a shape. It grew legs, stretched out its wings, and stretched out its neck.
The shadow of an ostrich appeared in mid-air.
A feeling of reluctance spread, and this reluctance was also mixed with feelings of guilt and luck.
Just like an ostrich in trouble, trying to stick its head into the sand to escape - Ji Le associated this image from this complicated emotion.
"If you can feel the negative emotions in the box scene, you will have a breakthrough."
Ji Le looked up at the ostrich: "What are you feeling guilty about? What are you getting away with? Escape may be useful, but it cannot completely solve the problem."
Lacey, who has turned into a personal animal form, seems to have lost the ability to communicate with people. She is driven by her own obsession. The only thing she has to do now is to completely eliminate Ji Le.
"As long as you are eliminated, no one will know the truth."
"The peaceful days can continue."
"Destroy you."
The sky darkened, all the flashing information pop-ups on the campus disappeared, and the vegetation returned to an unmaintained state, showing desolation.
And the people on campus, their bodies began to change.
Ji Le saw the students watching in the front row. Their skin turned pale, and then turned into a rotten green. The exposed skin was also in tatters, hanging on the bones, the face sank rapidly, and the eyeballs were protruding and filled with turbidity.
"They have all turned into dead people, just like in the world over there!" Bai Bo exclaimed.
"This woman is changing reality. She has transformed everyone into the state in her fantasy!" Li Li couldn't stand it anymore. "If she did this, a lot of people would die, but it would be much more extreme than what I did."
In the blink of an eye, the people around him turned into zombies.
"Ahhh!"
"what happened?"
But unlike the world over there, these people still have their own consciousness even if they become walking zombies. At first, they just came to watch the fight between the teacher and the sheriff, but later they were involuntarily controlled by Lacey, and now they find that the people around them have turned into living corpses.
The huge ostrich stretched its wings.
These people who turned into living corpses rushed towards Ji Le.
Ji Le felt Lacey's negative emotions: "Since this ostrich likes hiding in the sand so much and escaping while feeling guilty, then I will lift up the sand."
He wanted to see what was hidden under her box view?
[The box scene is being reconstructed——]
"No no!" Ji Le seemed to hear an ostrich screaming, and at the same time he felt his ears tingling.
Lacey is using her best ability to reject Ji Le's reconstruction.
"Don't you want to solve the problem? It's been like this all this time, and you're in pain, right?"
Refactoring successful.
Ji Le rejected all Lacey's changes to reality.
All the walking corpses stopped moving for an instant, and then fell to the ground one after another, just like real corpses. However, as they fell to the ground, the state of the corpses also deteriorated extremely. It only took a few seconds to turn from rotting to white bones.
The campus was extremely quiet, filled with dead silence.
The air was filled with the smell of decay, which was stronger than any other scene Ji Le had ever been to.
"Does it smell very strong?" Bai Bo asked. They can't smell it.
"If I could, I would never want to come here again."
"They failed to change back to their original appearance? Did this Lacey really kill so many people?" Spectacle Li was amazed at Lacey's viciousness. "But it seemed to me that she didn't like fighting before. She didn't seem like someone who could kill so many people with such cruelty."
Ji Le walked towards the main building.
Weathered corpses lay everywhere, their skulls incomplete.
Ji Le squatted down and looked at several corpses: "Did you say their original appearance? I'm afraid this is their original appearance."
Judging from the state of the body, it was definitely not dead just now, but at least it had been dead for several weeks.
Or let’s take a bold guess that they were dead as early as half a year ago.
