Chapter 118 Difference In Life Level
In their eyes, looking at Dante seemed to drag them into an illusion that they were standing on a small rock that was red-hot. Around them was a wasteland of burning fire for as far as the eye could see, with small pools of blackish-red lava here and there.
In each of these pools, there were hundreds of deformed human bodies screaming in limitless agony as they tried to struggle out and climb from the side while pushing each other down viciously. But there was a burly demon with pockmarked skin, two flaming wings, and a goat-like lower body by the side that would use its three-pronged fork weapon to push them back into the lava pool, laughing wantonly at the sounds of the agonized screams.
In the distance, one could see a coliseum-like area where a nine-headed hydra was locked in brutal combat with a man wielding a scythe while wearing a helm that obscured his face, along with a red cross sewn onto his chest, along with a female humanoid spirit body locked in a cage that seemed to be dissipating by the side.
However, the moment they saw that far, one of the demons torturing the humans in the pools turned its head to look at them, which caused one's heart to suffer limitless chill. Just as the other students tried to escape, the demon screeched in brutal laughter and flew over to grab them by the head and lifted them close.
Being so close, one could smell the stink, the sulfur, and the blood on it, and their hearts continued to pound like runaway trains in their chests. The demon slowly dragged them into the pool and then tossed them in, laughing as they screamed in agony and tried to escape.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm It then used its form to repeatedly poke them back under when they came up, causing the edge of their vision to go black slowly until they passed out.
In reality, all 27 students of Dante's class froze as they glanced at him, blood leaking from their seven orifices as they screamed in agony and fell to the ground, rolling as if they were trying to climb out of something.
Only Humphrey, Slessor, and some other exceptional students in the top ten were mostly sober and gritting their teeth to resist the scene in their minds as they coughed blood onto the ground.
Dante was shocked by the happenings, and before he could say anything, an alarm suddenly sounded. Immediately, some rescue androids rushed over and checked on the students, injecting them with various tubes of liquids to stabilize and restore them before giving treatment.
From the nearby teleporter in front of the house, a diminutive human woman who had looks similar to Edna from The Incredibles but with blue, Super Saiyan-like hair and two glowing green eyes appeared while seated in a floating chair.
She immediately assessed the state of the students and took charge of the androids.
"They have only undergone an aura shock. A being of superior life level or power level did not control their aura and they, like idiots, stared wantonly. The shots you've given them are enough. Use an electric shock of 10,000 volts to wake them up," the woman said in a high-pitched voice filled with callousness and lack of concern.
Then the woman looked around and spotted Dante, who was unharmed. She was about to comment with surprise as to how Dante could resist the aura of the passing higher-level lifeform when her pupils dilated rapidly.
She also saw the scene the other students did, but the difference was that she was completely lucid and unaffected. Immediately, her eyes shone with shock as she knew that this was not a superpower but a genuine unique form of magical power!
This meant that normal people could acquire this power as long as they could mimic the methods this student used!
Immediately, limitless greed appeared in the eyes of the woman as she swooped close to Dante, who was still dumbfounded.
"The student standing over there, what is your name?" she asked quickly.
Dante snapped out of his shock and assessed the woman before him. He could tell that she was a teacher because she was seated behind Lara during the orientation. With the intention not to cause trouble, Dante answered calmly.
"My name is Dante, a student of the 10998 Unique Batch. The number 1 student specifically," Dante added at the end with a hint of warning.
Hearing his name, the woman's face changed greatly. The name Dante and the number of his batch was a taboo for the teachers of the school currently and had even caused great waves in the upper echelons of the universe recently.
Initially, her idea was to blame Dante for maliciously harming his fellow students and then capture him before ruthlessly torturing his secrets out of him, but she hesitated given his identity and the 'backer' behind him.
She was torn, wanting to act quickly before more parties arrived and things became murky, but also hesitated because if it backfired, she would have to bear severe consequences. In the end, her eyes lit up as a thought came to mind.
"It's great to see you are unharmed unlike your other students. Did you see what happened here?" she asked gently.
Dante wisely shook his head. "I have no idea what happened. We all came out and exchanged a few looks to size each other up before they started convulsing."
This was the truth he knew, so even if anyone used equipment to test him, they would not detect a lie. After all, they saw that illusory scene, but Dante himself didn't and couldn't as the practitioner of the technique.
The woman's eyes narrowed, but she maintained a friendly demeanor. "Well, they have all been given various solutions to prevent any lasting issues, and I have to give you some too. It's school protocol."
She waved a hand, and an android nurse came over with a syringe that contained a greenish liquid. Dante's eyes fell on it, and he could instinctively tell that he should never allow this thing into his body.
Not to mention, it was different from what was injected into the other students. He wasn't blind, nor was he not paying attention, and given the reaction of the students as well as the woman earlier, Dante could put two and two together.
"That is not what you gave the other students," Dante stated coldly as he took a step back.
The heart of the woman skipped a beat, but she forcibly maintained her smile. "Of course. You do not give a person with first-stage cancer and fourth-stage cancer the same medicine, right? You have similar issues but at the end of the day, they are not the same."
It sounded reasonable to a person who didn't know medicine, but Dante would not be fooled. He sneered and used his AI chip to contact the central hub of the school to report the situation here.
Immediately, the android nurse stopped in place and put away the syringe it was holding while speaking coldly. "Detected dose of a high-level tranquilizer. Not necessary for the treatment of student Dante, aborting action."
The face of the woman fell, and she glanced at Dante with hatred. She wished she could drag his dog face away for daring to fight back and report her because now the central hub had taken back some of her administrative control and would monitor her in the near future.
Years of behaving like a good girl in order to be ranked as
a harmless person in its assessment for danger were now ruined as she was now to be monitored in-depth, meaning that her actions in the future for the faction behind her would be thoroughly stifled!
If it were not for the fact that she could feel the central AI's eyes on her right now and feared the punishment of the headmistress, she would have rushed over and beaten this piece of disrespectful trash into the ground!
Dante ignored the woman who could only look but not touch and walked into a nearby teleporter to head toward the staging area of the Black Land. There, he found the usual teachers waiting for them and walked up to Xue Bing without looking at the others, while their faces changed.historical
Looking at Dante, they seemed to see a hellish illusion when they looked at Dante, but it did not affect them much. However, like the woman before, a hint of greed flashed in their eyes as they wished to capture Dante.
However, Xue Bing quickly grabbed Dante's hand and brought him into the tunnel that led to the Black Land in a rush, teleporting him to the end. She quickly handled the procedures and went through the door, teleporting Dante to the lead cabin once more, leaving the other teachers behind with bloodshot eyes.
Once they arrived, Xue Bing tiredly looked at Dante and spat out what she felt in her heart.
"Why can't you just be normal?!"
