CH 164

Ling Xiran and Lin Xinghe talked for a long time.

This was the first time that Lin Xinghe realized that this disciple of hers was really remarkable.

Ling Xiran had awakened at the alpine rimerose exam, and at that time, from the conversation between Lin Xinghe, Jiuge, and Fu Zhou, she already deduced the existence of the villain school and figured out that she was an NPC.

After the story ended, she was recalled by the system. She managed to cheat the system and was not sent to cleanse her memory, instead taking all the memories of the alpine rimerose exam with her to the next world.

She was a ghost cultivator in the alpine rimerose exam because she was in a soul state. After going to the new world and having a human body, she was unable to practice her previous methods, but thanks to her previous cultivation as a ghost, she possessed strong spiritual powers.

She unwittingly stirred up chaos in many fictional worlds, attempting to get more NPCs to awaken with her, and cheating the system at the end of a world. When recalled to the system, she quietly explored the system with her spiritual power.

“…… Their process is that after the world ends, the NPCs are recycled, and then the system detects if there are any awakened NPCs. I initially thought that it was high-tech that could be detected with a sweep, but later found out that the system determines the NPCs based on their words and actions in the world, so I was able to fool the system by acting. As long as your actions were not particularly extreme, the system would not scan your consciousness. I have seen a few awakened NPCs in hiding who ran their mouths, and the system found them and forcibly cleansed the memory. Generally speaking, the system is able to cleanse the memory of the NPCs, there is no way to choose to be sent to the villain school ……”

Thinking of something, she added, “Before, I could not figure out why they sent NPCS to the villain school. I did not understand why the system could not directly erase the NPCs, but now I get it. There are rules.”

Lin Xinghe praised from the bottom of her heart, “Xiran, you are better than me. I didn’t even notice how the system operated after I awakened, I forgot all about it and was directly sent to the villain school. You avoided the system check and still know so much, it is enough to prove that you can be on your own.”

Ling Xiran said, “No way! That’s because Master has taught me well! Without Master’s endorsement, I would have died on the cruise, muddled through that life, and been sent to other fictional worlds without a chance to awaken. But I was able to avoid the system’s detection. Since my awakening, I have experienced about seven or eight worlds, met more people, experienced more, and my brain is becoming more and more flexible, and my self-awareness is becoming stronger ……”

The truth is, Ling Xiran bumped into the man behind the scenes many times in the last seven or eight worlds, but Ling Xiran did not intend to pull back the curtain just yet.

The person pulling the strings went by many names, but obfuscated his true one. Although the current system was no longer the one from before, and Master was breaking down the system’s defenses step by step, she promised to never reveal the information about that messenger of justice.

She had never met the messenger of justice either.

She and the person behind the scenes communicated through books. The string-puller was a great writer, had countless pen names, wrote many stories, and also knew many languages and words.

The man behind the curtain also told her that he spent his first five worlds in fear of the coming of the devil, and even in fear of the devil’s apostles giving him an unfair judgement until he later met one of the devil’s apostles. Unexpectedly, the devil’s apostle was the messenger of justice, and the death he expected did not arrive. He learned the truth of the world, and with the help of the devil’s apostle, he passed through the sea and safely went to the next world.

Mr. Anonymous revealed the surname of the messenger of justice- Xie.

Mr. Anonymous met him in every story after his figure, most likely because Mr. Anonymous knew him better, Mr. Anonymous called the other Little Xie most intimately.

The emotion of love was one of the strongest ways to awaken someone.

When she learned about Little Xie from Mr. Anonymous, she got the idea that if she had the chance, she must set up Little Xie and her master.

She had been observing the men on the Alpine Rimerose. The man who raised a snake and the one who washed his hair every day were gay for each other, and their temperaments didn’t match her master’s, either.

Little Xie had one-of-a-kind abilities, from the description of the story of Mr. Anonymous. His appearance was quite handsome, her master was also good-looking. Little Xie was anti-villain school, Little Xie was also so inclined. He and her master were simply a match made in heaven.

Only such a mind did not take long to disappear.

Mr. Anonymous said he met Little Xie in other fictional worlds, but the two did not talk.

In yet another book, Mr. Anonymous wrote in a rather gossipy tone, “He just looked at her from afar and knew he liked her. Young people, tsk tsk, all hide these things in their eyes whether they like it or not.”

Who “she” was, Mr. Anonymous also did not say.

The first thing they needed to do was to take down the person behind the system.

She said,: “Master, about dealing with the devil, I have an idea.”

Lin Xinghe said, “Like on the cruise ship?”

Ling Xiran said, “Huh, did you think of that too, Master?”

It was for this reason that she thought of Ling Xiran.

Ling Xiran had experience in ghost cultivation. If she had an opening Ling Xiran could destroy the green devil from the inside out by being absorbed into it, and the invincible hair couldn’t do anything to stop it.

Lin Xinghe only held back at first out of fear of exposing her disciple.

Now that she knew it was safe, the idea naturally floated to her mind, just ……

Lin Xinghe always felt that this examination room was a little too simple.

This was the last test between her and Principal Wang, the last battle. He went to great lengths to make her lose contact with her teammates, and this was it? This? Was it?

Impossible.

She told Ling Xiran, “I think this examination room still has clues that we have not dug out. There’s something we haven’t figured out about the night devil, so after you sneak inside, try to keep to yourself and find a way to contact me.”

Ling Xiran: “Okay!”

People in this world were no longer killed by anxiety, but Ling Xiran invoked her anxiety again and had the sleepwalking experience, managing to kill herself that night.

The next night, Lin Xinghe cloaked herself in an invisibility cloak to check on the green head.

As expected, she saw Yu Ying’s face inside.

For several nights in a row, Lin Xinghe noticed that Ling Xiran was slowly becoming stronger.

She devoured the ghosts inside one by one, and in just a few days, her form inside the green head became clearer and clearer. While Ling Xiran cultivated, Lin Xinghe didn’t just wait around.

She gave a speech every day in this examination room, and also borrowed the technology here, as well as the process mentioned by Ling Xiran, and showed all the NPCs one by one.

Her goal: to make all the NPCs awaken!

By the time the fifth night came around, Ling Xiran finally found the opportunity to communicate her intentions to the outside world – she needed a cell phone.

Lin Xinghe contacted the Ruler and had the Ruler prepare a number of cell phones.

After sacrificing countless phones, Ling Xiran finally caught a signal and was able to contact Lin Xinghe by salvaging the phone before the hair shattered it.

She reported, “Master, I devoured all the ghosts! Now there is only one soul body in the devil’s body, me. Just one thing I found out, although I was in the devil’s body and devoured all the soul bodies, I had no way to control the devil, not even the hair, it looks like the person killed by anxiety will just enter the devil’s body ……”

“What else did you find?”

“The devil sensed my abnormality and tried to kill me. I fought with the devil for a day and a night. It kept trying to devour me, only it seemed a little weak and fought me to a draw ……”

Ling Xiran’s voice came, “But I think I can become stronger, Master, if you get a few more ghosts in. I’m an NPC, so if I killed them, once the story is over, they will be recycled and resurrected as well.”

And at this moment, the livestream of Jiuge, which had been a black screen, gradually lightened and became clear from a blurred picture.

The screen was green.

There was a petite girl in a soul state inside, holding a cell phone and saying, “Master, two is enough, just two more, I can definitely kill it from the inside!”
