NOVEL NEXT Chapter 22
“Honorable Mage, can you give us your contact information?” Julie asked awkwardly.
“Forget about exchanging contact details,” Chu He shook his head, “Just don’t come into contact with these psychic games anymore.”
With that said, Chu He pulled open the hotel door and walked out.
It was already late at night when he reached the streets.
Chu He opened the system’s attribute menu.
A translucent light panel appeared in front of Chu He. The mutated cells he currently possessed were clearly written in columns.
[Chu He]
[Superman Cell: 10 (+)]
[Elemental Cell: 11 Fire Cells (+)]
[Elemental Cell: 10 Lightning Cells (+)]
[Mutated Cells: 6321]
Chu He stood by the road and thought for a moment. Next, he fused a thousand mutated cells into a Superman cell as his physical strength increased.
Then, Chu He fused a thousand mutated cells into a lightning cell.
Now he had eleven Superman cells and eleven lightning cells.
Then, Chu He thought for a moment again.
He had four thousand mutated cells left, in the end, he planned to fuse them all into fire cells.
After all, fire was the first ability he had awakened, and it was also the ability that he was most familiar with.
The number of fire cells quickly increased to fifteen.
He could clearly feel the sensation of a ball of fire burning intensely in his chest.
His body felt slightly heated, and a warm current flowed through his veins.
He extended his right hand and gently snapped his fingers. Immediately, a ball of flames burst out from Chu He’s hand.
The temperature of this flame was much higher than before.
Not only were these flames formed by magic power, but they were also close to becoming real flames.
Chu He roughly sensed that the temperature of the flame’s core had exceeded 1,500 degrees. It was extremely lethal.
After increasing his strength, he felt comfortable all over.
Chu He waved his right hand, and the flame in his hand turned into a bullet-like object that flew out.
Whoosh!
A hole was formed on the ground.
One had to know that the flames did not have a physical body. The hole on the ground was completely created due to the high temperature.
“How terrifying!” This time, even Chu He was shocked as he exclaimed.
Every time he killed a demonic creature, his strength would increase significantly.
After raising his level, Chu He planned on heading to St. Peter’s Private High School.
After his investigation, he had figured out that the Bloody Mary that Julie and the others had encountered was different from the demonic creature that existed in St. Peter High School.
The Bloody Mary that Julie and the others encountered was lured to them through a psychic game.
And in their school, St. Peter’s Private High School, there was another demonic creature!
The hotel that he had gone to earlier to deal with Bloody Mary was not far from St. Peter High School. Chu He arrived at his destination half an hour later by walking.
It was five in the morning.
The sky was gradually lighting up.
However, a few police cars were parked outside St. Peter High School. There were also quite a number of people surrounding the place. It was a very chaotic scene.
Chu He casually pulled a man over.
“Brother, I want to ask something. Isn’t St. Peter High School sealed? Why are there so many people here?”
The man sized up Chu He before explaining, “This is caused by those outdoor streamers.”
“Outdoor streamers?”
“Yes, a few streamers with millions of fans agreed to go on a supernatural adventure together. They heard that something strange happened at St. Peter High School recently, so they came here to do an outdoor live-stream. In the end, they all disappeared somewhere in the campus.”
“Their stream instantly went dark, and there was no sound. These streamers could not be contacted anymore, so someone called the rescue team.”
“They’ve been here for a long time, but we still haven’t found them. I guess something really happened to them.”
After hearing the man’s explanation, Chu He frowned.
He could feel faint magical elements nearby meaning that a mage must have been here.
Currently, Chu He did not want to have any excessive contact with mages.
He only wanted to get rid of some demonic creatures himself and silently increase his strength.
After all, his methods were rather special, and he was not a mage.
Chu He sighed.
Since the high school’s incident had been taken over by the mage, it had nothing to do with him.
However, just as Chu He was about to leave, a blood-red quest panel appeared in front of him.
[Special Quest (Limited)]
[Quest Title: Vengeful Spirit in Pain]

After looking at the quest panel, Chu He stopped in his tracks.
Unexpectedly, there really was a powerful demonic creature in this high school, and the situation seemed like it was beyond his imagination.
