Chapter 401: Chapter 385: Teaching Assistant and List

Tang Qi knew that within the Lake Heart Island Secret Realm, there actually lived a large number of Extraordinary Creatures, especially in that vast area shrouded in an undispellable mist, which was extremely mysterious. Even the Witches of the Secret Realm dared not delve too deeply into it, knowing only that it contained vast and eerie presences of life.

According to the rules of the Mysterious Side, these kinds of lives are likely chaotic and evil.

However, it seems that because of the mist, these creatures had never appeared before.

Around the area of Dragon Heart Castle, there were similarly many Extraordinary Lives, most of which were of the Neutral or Order Camp.

For many years, they had evidently become accustomed to the presence of the Witch School.

Some of them were even raised by the Witches.

However, the “Trippy Mushroom Man” Tang Qi encountered did not belong to this group. According to Information Fragment, they had mysterious methods of reproduction and unbelievable ways of appearing.

On a whim, when the Mushroom Men cast witchcraft on him, Tang Qi chose to experience it.

He soon regretted it.

The so-called “Fantasy Realization” sounded quite wonderful.

If one only read the introduction to this witchcraft, probably many humans would be eager to try it.

Who wouldn’t want their deepest fantasies realized?

From the Information Fragment, the natural ability “Hallucination Technique” of the Mushroom Men was quite good, indeed capable of realizing the deepest fantasies of their targets.

But in reality, their method of realization was full of errors.

For instance, if you wished for a beauty, the Mushroom Men would thoughtfully materialize a lot of beauties, but they would not be human beauties, rather Mushroom Men.

If you liked wealth, in the hallucination, you would receive a pile of rotting wood.

“A fine Hallucination Technique, just that the perspective is peculiarly their own. Unless someone is perverted, I’m afraid no human would like to accept their goodwill.”

Tang Qi quickly sobered up, looking at the Mushroom Men who had fallen into a confused state due to the failure of their Hallucination Technique.

Their green eyes, in the forest, appeared particularly eerie.

But their dumbfounded expressions completely dispersed the atmosphere of terror.

Sending over a consoling thought, Tang Qi moved past them and continued deeper into the forest.

He did not encounter creatures like the “Mushroom Men” again and soon he saw that large, strange Black Mountain Beech.

On its leafless branches, three hundred Red-eyed Crows turned to look at Tang Qi all at once.

“You again, you impolite…”

“Hush”

Just as the ancient voice of the Black Mountain Beech was about to rise, it was immediately silenced by a Witch’s Token.

Moments later, Tang Qi left the forest with a piece of Beech Wood Token.

Behind him, the voice of Black Mountain Beech, heavy with resentment, came through: “Mr. Principal, remember your promise, next time bring me my favorite Green Dragon Fish eyeballs, I want the freshest.”

Although he obtained the information he wanted using the Witch’s Token, to prevent Black Mountain Beech from causing trouble, Tang Qi still decided to bribe him.

A plant-like Extraordinary Creature that did not like to move, yet liked to eat fish eyeballs.

Despite it being an Extraordinary creature “Green Dragon Fish.”

Clearly, it had a reason for relocating to the Lake Heart Island Secret Realm.

Green Dragon Ridge Lake was indeed the primary habitat of this slightly Extraordinary kind of fish.

Putting the matter of bribery aside, Tang Qi turned back towards the Library Tower, looking at the Wood Token in his hand.

On it, bursts of information exploded.

All the information targeted one person.

Selma!

Having met her twice, with good communication, Tang Qi even gave her an opportunity for an exclusive interview.

Her personal background was quite rare, her paternal lineage unexpectedly coming from the Eternal Heaven Dynasty; from the brief interaction, there was no doubt she was a kind, Order Camp Professional Transcendent and seemed to pose no threat to Tang Qi or the Witch School.

On the contrary, she clearly released goodwill towards Tang Qi.

However, Tang Qi still chose to investigate after knowing Selma’s Profession as a “Plant Puppet Master,” Tang Qi had a thought in his mind.

He wanted to invite Selma to take up a position at the Witch School, perhaps… as a Professor.

Apart from teaching “Plant Mysticism,” Tang Qi had another plan in mind.

But before sending out the “invitation,” Tang Qi needed to first confirm that she indeed posed no danger, as a brief assessment.

After all, from every angle, this was a major affair.

As Principal, Tang Qi indeed had the qualifications and authority to invite outsiders to become a professor.

But the school was not just his alone.

Bringing in a “new professor” required caution, which was not the same as temporary guest appearances by Jason, Rafael, and others.

As for whether Selma would agree?

Tang Qi believed that if he truly decided to extend an invitation, he would offer Selma an irresistible bargaining chip.

…

Black Mountain Beech, indeed lived up to its reputation.

Tang Qi did not return to the Library Tower, but instead walked step by step towards the Upper District of Dragon Heart Castle, and along the way, he had already learned a great deal of information about Selma.

“Background, bloodline information, completely consistent.”

“This girl’s experiences are also unexpectedly rich.”

Tang Qi looked at some special information and exclaimed in surprise.

Judging by appearance alone, Selma was even more deceptive than Tang Qi.

However, from the information on the Black Mountain Beech Wood Plate, it was clear that Selma had resolved many Mysterious Events and had made a name for herself in some cities. Her Profession as a Plant Puppet Master truly combined the essence of two systems, far stronger than other Spirit Plant Masters.

In terms of combat power, she indeed could not compare with Tang Qi.

But in other aspects, especially in Mysterious Plants, she was much stronger than Tang Qi.

Merely relying on the “Plant Recognition” Skill, was no match for Selma.

Tang Qi looked at the adventures Selma experienced, shown on the wooden plate, revealing this young girl’s character, her way of handling things, her true Camp, and many other details, rapidly sketching and fleshing out a complete character profile.

“A potent genius with an unproblematic camp, no threat, further contact for a period, then find the right opportunity to extend an invitation.”

Finally, Tang Qi made a decision.

But the right moment had yet to come.

As the thought of determination emerged, the scenery of the Upper District also appeared in front of Tang Qi. He casually threw the wooden plate into the air, only to see a Red-eyed Crow suddenly fly over, grabbing the wooden plate and swiftly returning to the depths of the forest.

Then, a vast white light fell on Tang Qi.

The White Lighthouse!

Judging by it, Tang Qi’s figure directly vanished into the fog.

Tonight’s trip to the “Isolation Zone,” Tang Qi planned to resolve the remaining Level 5 Danger Sources that had been previously scoped out but not yet handled. Unlike the three Danger Sources sealed by Esmeralda and put into a “Soul Slumber” state.

The last remaining two did not pose a large threat at this time for Tang Qi.

About an hour passed, and the misty area began to churn again.

“Hu.”

Accompanied by the light from the White Lighthouse, Professor Eva, summoned, along with a few other professors, looked anxiously at the three figures emerging from the light.

The familiar Tang Qi, and the two people he was holding by the hands.

A little boy, his body entirely red, covered with symbols that made one inevitably feel irritated and furious; behind him, an organ similar to a “Demon’s Tail,” his head slightly hanging as if extremely “shy,” unable to face others directly.

He stood beside Tang Qi, his body seemingly always brewing a furious, burning aura.

But this aura was continuously weakened, moving towards “normal value.”

The other was a girl, or rather, a mechanical girl.

Compared with the “Demon Boy,” the little girl, half of whose body was mechanical, attracted more attention.

From her head down, including her limbs, all were some kind of mechanical structure, sparkling with dazzling silver light, filled with a futuristic beauty, while at her chest, where the heart should have been, was notably missing, replaced by a silvery-white gemstone.

The light overflowing from the gemstone, like a round moon, was truly mesmerizing.

However, similarly, the brilliance of the gemstone gradually dimmed, seeming to return to normalcy, followed by a “click,” isolated by a mechanical plate.

The little girl was not shy.

On the contrary, her intellect seemed to not be affected by the isolation, as she looked at Professor Eva and the others, and the entire Dragon Heart Castle, her eyes filled with curiosity and marvel, her lips curling up into a slightly strange but indeed “joyful” arc.

“Successful?”

Professor Eva, who had also seen the student register, knew the information of the two children and could not help but exclaim.

Tang Qi first nodded, then shook his head.

Professor Eva understood, instructing the few teachers behind her to take the two children away.

Immediately after, Tang Qi’s voice came forth.

“Luka’s issue is similar to Shay’s, but a bit more troublesome. However, with the combination of Esmeralda’s Sealing Witchcraft and my Body Control Spell, it’s sufficient to reduce his danger level, just need to be careful of the burst of Demon Power.”

“But for Peggy, I agree with Esmeralda’s judgment, there isn’t another solution before finding a more suitable energy source.”

“The Exotic Realm Gemstone replacing her heart has already entered into the energy decay phase. It’s unknown why the Mysterious Creature that transformed her used an energy source in its decay phase, which ensures that Peggy’s lifespan won’t exceed a year, perhaps even shorter. However, she herself is aware of her condition, thus she proactively requested to leave the Isolation Zone, even though that would further shorten her lifespan, but this is her only request, she wishes to be free when she dies.”

“I consented to her request, but you needn’t worry about her issue, I’ve left a mental Mark on her, should any Abnormal Movement occur, I will appear in time to resolve it.”

“It seems, that’s indeed the only way!”

Professor Eva offered no rebuttal to Tang Qi, unable to think of a better solution.

She believed, no one else could do better.

Back then, Esmeralda could only place ten Danger Sources into the Isolation Zone.

Tang Qi, had already rescued more than half.

In this matter, he was truly a qualified Principal.

Just as respect emerged in Professor Eva’s heart, Tang Qi suddenly produced a piece of Parchment in his hand, with several names written on it.

“This is…?”

“Extraordinary Practical Combat Class, selected participants list.”

“Professor, you are my first assistant.”

Facing Professor Eva’s puzzled gaze, Tang Qi harmlessly smiled.
