My Weekly Refreshing Mentor Spirit

Finally, he made a simple wooden epitaph, inscribed with "Grave of the Unknown from the Otherworld."

The information that could be obtained from the corpse was just so, not even the coordinates were found. The entire corpse had been so damaged that it was unrecognizable, and even her hometown’s coordinates couldn’t be found. Perhaps that’s a good thing.

He couldn’t reverse-engineer the coordinates of the Otherworld from this corpse, so most likely they couldn’t deduce Earth’s coordinates.

Thinking this, Xue Dili prepared to leave.

As soon as Xue Dili left the Subspace, Susu returned to her dorm.

He seemed to have forgotten something, but it shouldn’t be a big issue. Anyway, the matter had come to this, so it was better to eat first.

At this time, beneath the Consciousness Space, the corpse that was originally dead, with the entire body decayed from soaking, seemingly completely dead, suddenly opened its eyes, a mysterious blue flame flickering in its pupils.

"Snap!"

The roots of the tree suddenly entwined around her corpse, completely absorbing the suddenly emerging blue flame. The entire body was utterly enveloped by the tree roots, the newly emerged force absorbed until nothing remained, as even this essence was completely consumed by the Divine Tree.

...

As Xue Dili casually found a place to eat, he suddenly remembered what he’d forgotten.

Today was the day new travelers arrived, but he and Susu had spent so much time dissecting outside the academy that he forgot entirely...

It means the new travelers appeared directly on the Magic Academy’s playground, and they probably had been wandering the academy for several hours by now.

"Sir, your beef noodles are ready."

"Okay, thank you."

Xue Dili furrowed his brow, wondering if he was becoming more forgetful, how he could forget such a thing, or perhaps the Otherworld’s female corpse had distracted him, causing him to forget today’s arrivals.

It would be better to finish eating first and then look for them. Hopefully, it wouldn’t be a big problem.

Meanwhile, Susu was nestled in her dormitory. She briefly looked through Xue Dili’s shared vision, the beef noodle perspective, and swallowed her saliva.

Forget it, better not be greedy. The dissection had just been done, so the craving was promptly suppressed by the diseased organs from the corpse. Eating bread would even make her feel sick now.

Susu thought this, unsure why she felt there was some odd noise.

Her phone was playing a horror story titled "The Licked Hand."

"Brother isn’t here, so there shouldn’t be anyone, right? And Faust has already left? According to brother, Faust’s consciousness has become the main consciousness of that planet..." Susu thought to herself, continuing to shrink into her quilt.

The temperature within Consciousness Space changes according to the external environment; Earth had reached winter now, with temperatures around ten degrees, not cold but definitely not warm. Even the students had changed into autumn clothes.

"Creak..." It seemed there was another odd noise in the dormitory building, and Susu shivered.

"Is it my imagination..." She thought to herself, and then suddenly realized.

Right, what am I afraid of? I’m now a top-notch ghost; I’ve long been dead, living in a soul solid-state mode, unable to appear in the real world unless possessing a body.

And she used to be a Witch specializing in dealing with Evil Ghosts!

What do I have to fear? Could there even be a ghost more powerful than me?

Although Susu considered herself weak in actual strength, if her opponent were indeed a ghost, it would be her specialty. Susu particularly favored dealing with ghosts, handling as many as she encountered.

Thinking this, she immediately gained confidence, regardless of the external situation, she directly took her little command flag she once used, preparing to investigate.

"I must see what’s going on." She said this, found the source of the sound, and saw a woman with disheveled hair, emitting a mysterious blue flame, floating in the air. She was gnawing on the bread Xue Dili had left in Consciousness Space. Her neck turned 180 degrees, looking at Susu holding the Command Flag.

"Bold ghost, I can see with one glance that you’re not human! Show your true form!" Seeing the ghost, she was not flustered but rather arrogantly spoke.

...

Xue Dili hadn’t finished his meal when he felt the entire Consciousness Space bustling with activity.

He quickly finished his meal and left, heading directly to the Consciousness Space, seeing Susu fighting intensely with a "female ghost" there. The Little Witch’s skill list was filled with blessings, exorcism, purification, and guiding, while the female ghost seemed unwilling to back down, continuously countering these peculiar skills.

Xue Dili: "..."

You haven’t realized after using exorcism for so long? She’s completely different from your world’s evil ghosts, even though they’re both in soul form, she’s not the same entity as your world’s ghosts, and your highly targeted abilities don’t work on this Otherworld’s female ghost.

Unless you directly unfold your Margaret container and absorb her into yourself...

After a long struggle, neither side could subdue the other. Xue Dili said, "Enough, stop this nonsense, Susu, you go play elsewhere..."

"As for this one, let’s have a chat." Xue Dili looked at the female ghost floating in the air.

She was different from other soul forms; other souls generally maintained their pre-mortal appearance, while this female ghost’s body was half-transparent, her expression extremely twisted, and her lower half appeared entirely transparent, leaving only the upper half. No wonder Susu became reactive at this sight.

This should be the traveler for this time, but Xue Dili couldn’t gauge her background.

"Can we talk?" Xue Dili asked.

To his surprise, the female ghost rushed at Xue Dili directly without hesitation, resembling a vengeful spirit, filled with resentment and pain.

Xue Dili: "?"

A Holy Light Barrier appeared on him instantly, and in the next moment, the female ghost reacted as if she touched a branding iron, emitting a sizzling sound.

However, she was not deterred but hid behind cover, blowing at Xue Dili.

Xue Dili: "..."

He felt the female ghost was akin to undead he had encountered before, yet there was a difference. But why did she react so instinctively upon seeing him, unable to speak, seemingly mindless, acting purely on instinct like an undead?

Thinking this, Xue Dili withdrew the Holy Light shield from his body.

The female ghost immediately stopped blowing from the cover and rushed at Xue Dili again like a genuinely vengeful ghost, her body twisting like a monster, her mouth appearing to open wide, emitting a haunting wail.

In the next instant, chains of Holy Light pierced through her, binding her firmly in mid-air. The Holy Light Chains roasted her semi-transparent soul until it smoked, as she struggled desperately, weakened by the midst of her struggle.

Xue Dili didn’t intend to kill her directly, even though she was just a ghost trying to attack him, he couldn’t understand why this time it was something like this.

It was his first encounter with such a traveler, possessing no intelligence, unable to speak, initiating an attack upon sight, suspected of being undead.

But Xue Dili had an undead expert, Old Barak. In terms of the undead knowledge, nobody understood more about them than Old Barak!

After all, he spent decades killing undead in his youth, and personally spent decades as undead, understanding their nature better than anyone else, even if Xue Dili had interacted with undead and briefly became one himself, he still didn’t fully comprehend them.

"Go find Old Deng." He said this.
