Chapter 490: Chapter 489: Corrosion Invasion

Suddenly, Lu Zixun sat up from his bed, thinking of the Light and Shadow Association members he had encountered through Wang Linfan. Weren’t these people the source of the Super Energy Particles?

At that thought, Lu Zixun chuckled to himself and picked up the phone to contact Zhen Zhuoxiu.

After hanging up the phone, he nodded in complete satisfaction.

The Extreme Cold Moon Wheel was finally in his grasp; all that was left was to wait for Zhen Zhuoxiu to locate the Light and Shadow Association members.

"Da Ju, I’m back."

Just in from outside, Lin Siyin headed straight to the bedroom and rubbed her head against Lu Zixun’s stomach, "So tired. There are still classes in the afternoon."

...

Walking with Lin Siyin inside the Crimson Academy, Lu Zixun curiously observed his surroundings.

The architectural style here was starkly different from the outside, exuding a somber and lethal aura.

But then again, for an academy meant to foster combat awareness, this architectural style was somewhat fitting.

"For this afternoon’s class, we’ll be differentiating the types and abilities of the Insect Clan. Da Ju, do you want to stroll around the academy, or join me for the class?"

Sitting on a bench under the tree shade, Lin Siyin softly asked for Lu Zixun’s preference.

"Of course, I’ll join you for the class. There’s not much fun in roaming the academy by myself."

Yawning and tumbling over to continue napping, Lu Zixun added, "It’s also a good chance for me to assess the quality of your academy’s teachers."

In reality, Lu Zixun barely understood the educational quality.

His ultimate goal was to see if anyone was harassing Lin Siyin.

Lin Siyin, clearly understanding the little tugging at Lu Zixun’s heart, laughed softly without saying anything.

His concern made her feel especially reassured.

In the classroom, Lu Zixun found himself at a loss.

The knowledge points the teacher discussed were so dull, he couldn’t understand why Lin Siyin found them so engrossing.

However...

Lu Zixun lay on the long table, tilting his head to glance at the teacher currently lecturing. He felt something strange about the teacher’s aura.

If he had to describe it, it was somewhat like a shell?

At that thought, Lu Zixun shook his head, finding the idea somewhat ludicrous.

Even with the extensive reach of the Light and Shadow Association, it was unlikely, under the illumination of Trial Tower, for a Realm Breaker’s consciousness to penetrate Crimson Academy.

"Students, let’s take a break."

Mr. Lu, the teacher in the midst of lecturing, spoke these words slowly and deliberately before sitting down to rest.

Like a robot, he strictly followed his programming.

At that moment, however, Lu Zixun felt like he was being observed.

Yet the system’s feeling value detection showed no alerts, which was utterly strange.

Looking around the classroom, Lu Zixun realized that the one watching him might be this Mr. Lu.

But why didn’t he receive any feeling values from him?

Feeling that something was amiss, Lu Zixun activated his Heavenly Eye to take a peek.

"Shell＆*＆%"

In the Heavenly Eye, a bunch of garbled codes appeared, which took a while to return to normal.

This was the first time Lu Zixun had encountered such a situation, and he couldn’t help but frown deeply. What was going on?

"Lu Qingyang had transformed his brain into machinery to avoid the erosion of the Power of Faith, a hybrid mode of half machinery, half shell."

Upon seeing the information emanating from Lu Qingyang, Lu Zixun’s lips twitched slightly. What kind of bizarre existence was this?

The operation of mechanically modifying the brain was usually the domain of either madmen or big shots, and then there was the latter part...

Corroded by the Power of Faith, had Lu Qingyang come into contact with someone from the Light and Shadow Association?

...

At this moment, the follower, a member of the Light and Shadow Association, Zhen Zhuoxiu, arrived at the Crimson Academy’s faculty apartments. Witnessing the scene before him, he couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

Within the entire faculty apartments, all except for Wang Linfan and the Dean’s rooms were corrupted by members of the Light and Shadow Association, undergoing transformations through the Power of Faith.

But this process didn’t seem to be the so-called enhancement of strength.

In the midst of the transformation Array, Zhen Zhuoxiu could see a shadowy figure being pulled from a body, followed by the infusion of the so-called Power of Faith.

This Power of Faith was somewhat different from what Zhen Zhuoxiu had seen before.

The scene, akin to a large cult gathering, made Zhen Zhuoxiu feel extremely uncomfortable.

When he wanted to take out his phone to report this message to Lu Zixun, Zhen Zhuoxiu discovered that there was no signal in this area.

Just as he thought of leaving, he found he was unable to exit.

The person previously hailed as the High Priest reverently knelt on the ground, "My lord, I have followed your instructions, infiltrated the faculty of the Crimson Academy. Once the Dean and Associate Dean enter here, we can proceed to the next step of the plan."

A mechanical black snake could be seen crawling out from the Array, hissing, "High Priest, you have done well. The lord awaits your good news."

"Who exactly is their ’lord’ that they keep referring to?"

Zhen Zhuoxiu, viewing such an absurd scene from the shadows, dared not even take a deep breath.

He didn’t know by what means the Light and Shadow Association had sealed the area, but he needed to find a way to escape from here.

...

"Da Ju, Mr. Lu seems to really like you."

Watching Lu Qingyang’s gaze frequently fall on Lu Zixun, Lin Siyin whispered with her head bowed.

"Mhm, I’m so handsome, of course he likes me."

He replied with a smile.

Inside, Lu Zixun’s heart sank. What exactly did this Lu Qingyang want to do?

Being targeted by an entity that was neither human nor non-human would make anyone feel uneasy.

Don’t be fooled by Lu Qingyang’s mere S-level strength; if he were to fully shellify, even Lu Zixun would have a tough time dealing with him.

After the class bell rang, Lu Qingyang’s movements became even slower. After a long pause, he said, "Class is over... Lin Siyin, bring your cat and come to my office..."

A chill ran up the spine.

Once Lu Qingyang left the classroom, Lu Zixun tugged at Lin Siyin’s clothes, "Si Yin, don’t you think this Mr. Lu is strange?"

"Mr. Lu has a good reputation in the academy, he’s been teaching for over forty years."

Lin Siyin thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Are you talking about the way Mr. Lu speaks? After all, he’s getting on in years and seems to be in declining health."

"..."

Seeing Lin Siyin’s reaction, Lu Zixun sighed silently, "There’s something off about this Mr. Lu. Si Yin, you go contact your brother-in-law. I’ll go see him."

"Ah? Oh."

Although Lin Siyin didn’t understand why Lu Zixun would say that, she still did as he instructed.

After giving Lin Siyin a few instructions, Lu Zixun set off alone to meet Lu Qingyang in his office.

Upon entering the office, Lu Zixun instantly smelled the scent of shellification and was immediately on full alert.

The Night Evil Sword appeared, revolving around him as he faced the backlit figure of Lu Qingyang, his eyes filled with wariness.
