Chapter 414 New Passenger, Female Ghost? Undead?

"Brother, is being a forensic doctor really that tiring?" Su Su asked Xue Dinglu with a puzzled look. She had just finished watching an idol drama about forensic doctors, and the main characters in it were very glamorous.

Xue Law: "..."

Forensic medicine... well, even a dog wouldn't study it. There's a saying that goes, "If you advise someone to study medicine, you'll be struck by lightning; if you advise someone to study law, you'll be torn to pieces; if you advise someone to study forensic medicine, Satan will tattoo you on the back."

When he stole the body before, that forensic doctor guy stayed up all night on Red Bull, writing reports on the intranet and recording the characteristics of the body. He did this all night until dawn, and the body was stolen by Xue Lude just as he was about to perform the autopsy...

I bet he's still awake, sitting in front of the computer wondering if he's gone crazy from staying up all night and misdiagnosed a diseased heart.

Su Su pointed blankly at herself and asked, "So this is why you called me here to be a forensic doctor?"

Xue Dinglu took a deep breath and said, "Su Su, you know I need you right now."

She froze for a moment, then stammered, "Okay, since you need my help..."

So Xue's Law began to dissect the matter. He actually just wanted to get an assistant for free, or perhaps he was thinking that he couldn't let me be the only one suffering, so he was going to randomly trick a lucky audience member.
Perhaps both are true, and Xue Dinglu began to process the corpse.

“Start dealing with the heart… it should be the core in the left chest area,” Xue Dinglu said directly.

“Okay, okay…” Su Su immediately picked up a knife and began to cut open the blood vessels and connecting organs at the core.

In an instant, a foul-smelling liquid flowed out, whether it was putrid blood or diseased fluid, causing Xue's law to retreat a great distance.

Su Su is a spirit, so the stench of the material doesn't affect her, but it's different for me.

Su Su: "..."

Setting the core aside, she hurriedly began cleaning up the newly gushing fluid.

“The core is fine, and there’s nothing strange about it. Although its structure is very different from ours, the underlying logic is the same,” Su Su explained, holding the core.

"Okay, let's begin dissecting the respiratory system and other organs," Xue Dinglu then instructed.

Susu was, after all, a witch who had seen all sorts of evil spirits and corpses. In her world, a witch was actually a kind of corpse collector.

She actually runs her small shrine by handling commissions and performing funeral rites for people.

Despite the somewhat chaotic process, the organ separation was successfully completed. The organs were removed one by one and placed aside. A large amount of viscous and disgusting fluid had accumulated in the red bucket.

"Alright, it's basically finished." Xue Dinglu even chose to use the blood of the curse to create a biomass mask for himself before coming to check on the situation.

"The internal organs are undamaged, and there are no external injuries. Although the inside is filled with a large amount of water, there are no signs of water aspiration in the respiratory system, and it's similar to other organs..." Xue Dinglu analyzed.

"The assessment is that this person was already dead before being transported to Earth. It is highly likely that the attack was a soul attack, or a direct attack on the brain, which caused the death..."

Although Xue's Law is now presented in a very abstract way, he is indeed seriously analyzing the cause of this person's death.

Even analyzing why this thing was able to fall to Earth, Xue's Law doesn't know whether the person behind the door was randomly teleported there or knew Earth's coordinates. If it's the latter, then that would be troublesome.

That proves that at least Earth's coordinates might be exposed in the universe. However, given that Xue's Law doesn't know what's on the other side, it's uncertain whether the apostles will be able to find these exposed coordinates.

Although the probability of this happening is extremely small, he doesn't want to see it occur.

"Brother, there seems to be something in here." Su Su suddenly took out a severely decayed organ, then rummaged through it amidst the stench, and found something that looked like a stone slab. Activating it with magic, she discovered a long passage of text on it.

"We succeeded. We successfully found a way to escape this cage."

There were no other objects besides this, and the runes on the small stone contained only this much information, which was barely revealed after the system panel left by the Great Sage started smoking.

The scene fell silent. Xue Luding rubbed her temples, as if the corpse had no value whatsoever. It was probably the Earth coordinates she had found by accident, but it had already died before she could send them out... but she didn't know how the corpse ended up on Earth.

Or perhaps the corpse wasn't teleported here directly, but was retrieved by Mom from the subspace, but she forgot to deal with it after retrieving it, causing it to accidentally appear on Earth.

In short, although it's very abstract, it's quite normal when applied to my mom's habit of scooping up strange and unusual things from the subspace.

"Alright, we've completed our mission this time. I'll treat you to a meal next time." Xue Dinglu still had Su Su put all her organs back in and then bury them in the consciousness space.

Although he didn't know what the rituals for the dead were like in their hometown, Xue could only do this much, as a form of compensation for dissecting her body.

The two of them spent the whole morning working on dissections and analyses, and then, like morticians, they had to restore it. Xue Dinglu dug a hole in the soil of his consciousness space and buried it.

Finally, he made a simple wooden inscription that read "Tomb of an Unknown Person in Another World".

That's all the information we can get from the body. We can't even find the coordinates. The body is completely decomposed. We can't even find the coordinates of her hometown. Maybe that's a good thing.

If he couldn't deduce the coordinates of the other side from this corpse, then the other side probably couldn't deduce the coordinates of Earth.

Xue Lu thought to himself as he prepared to leave.

After Xue Law left the subspace, Su Su returned to her dormitory.

It seems I've forgotten something, but it shouldn't be a big problem. Anyway, things have come to this, let's eat first.

At this moment, in the space of consciousness, the corpse that was originally dead and whose entire body had decomposed beyond recognition due to soaking, and which would have been dead beyond any other living being, suddenly opened its eyes, and a ghostly blue flame emerged from its pupils.

"Snapped!"

The tree roots suddenly wrapped around her corpse, completely absorbing the blue flames that had suddenly appeared on it. The entire corpse was completely enveloped by the tree roots, which absorbed all the power that had suddenly transformed into her. In the end, even her ashes were completely devoured by the divine tree.

...When Xue Dinglu randomly found a place to eat, he suddenly realized what he had forgotten.

Today was the day the new passengers arrived, but I forgot about it after spending half the day dissecting things outside the academy with Su Su…

In other words, the new traveler appeared directly on the magic academy's playground, and has probably been wandering around the academy for several hours.

"Guest, your beef noodles are here."

"OK, thanks."

Xue Luding frowned. Was he becoming more and more forgetful? How could he forget this? Or was it really because the female corpse from another world had taken up most of his attention, causing him to forget that there were passengers arriving today?
Let's finish eating first and then go look for it; it probably won't be a big problem.

Meanwhile, Su Su was holed up in her dorm room. She glanced at Xue Dinglu's shared view—the perspective of someone eating beef noodles—and swallowed hard.

Forget it, I'd better not be tempted. After dissecting that corpse, the barely suppressed cravings were immediately suppressed by the diseased organs. Now, even eating some bread would make me feel uncomfortable.

As Su Su thought this, she wondered if there was some strange noise.

A horror story titled "The Hand That Was Licked" was playing on my phone.

"If my brother isn't here, there shouldn't be anyone here, right? And Faust has already left, hasn't he? According to my brother, Faust's consciousness became the main body of the new consciousness on that planet..." Su Su thought to herself, and shrank even deeper into the blankets.

The temperature within the consciousness space changes according to the external environment. Now that it is winter on Earth, the temperature is generally around ten degrees Celsius, which is not cold, but it is definitely not warm either. Even the students have already changed into thermal underwear.

"Creak..." Another strange noise seemed to come from the dormitory building, and Su Su shivered.

"It must be my imagination..." she thought to herself, then suddenly realized.

Yeah, what am I afraid of? I'm a top-tier female ghost now, I died a long time ago, and I live in a solidified soul mode. I can't appear in the real world, I have to possess a body before I can appear in the outside world.

And she used to be a priestess who specifically targeted evil spirits!

What am I afraid of? Could there really be a ghost more powerful than me?
Although Su Su considers herself a complete novice when it comes to raw power, if the opponent is truly a ghost, then it's a perfect match for her expertise. Ghosts are her favorite targets, and she can deal with any number of evil spirits that come her way.

Thinking of this, her confidence immediately increased. Regardless of the situation outside, she took the little flag she had used before and prepared to go and find out what was going on.

"I'd like to see what's going on." She said this, found the source of the sound, and saw a woman with disheveled hair and her pupils emitting ghostly blue flames, floating in the air. At this moment, she was eating the bread that Xue Luding had left in her consciousness space when she turned her neck completely 180 degrees and looked at Su Su who was holding the command flag.

"You audacious female ghost, I can tell you're not human at first glance! Show me your true form!" After discovering that she was a ghost, she didn't panic at all, but said arrogantly.

……

Before Xue Dinglu had even finished his meal, he felt the entire consciousness space become chaotic.

He could only settle the bill as soon as possible and go directly to the consciousness space, where he saw Su Su and a "female ghost" fighting fiercely. The little witch's skill list was full of blessing, exorcism, purification and salvation, while the female ghost on the other side seemed to be not to be outdone, constantly blocking her strange skills.

Xue Law: "..."

Haven't you noticed after using exorcisms for so long? The one opposite you is from a completely different system. Although both are in spirit form, she is not the same as the evil spirits in your world. Your targeted abilities are ineffective against this female ghost from another world.

Unless you directly expand the space of your own Margaret container and absorb it into your own body...

After a long while, the two sides were still locked in a stalemate, neither able to gain the upper hand. Xue Dinglu finally said, "That's enough, stop fooling around. Su Su, you should go play somewhere else..."

"As for this one, let's talk about her." Xue Dinglu looked at the female ghost floating in the air.

Unlike the other souls, who generally maintain their physical appearance, this female ghost's body is semi-transparent, and her expression is extremely distorted. Her lower body seems to be completely transparent, leaving only her upper body. No wonder Su Su was shocked by this appearance.

This must be the passenger from this trip, but Xue Dinglu couldn't determine her background.

"Can we talk?" Xue Dinglu asked.

Unexpectedly, the female ghost did not hesitate at all and pounced on Xue Dinglu, as if she were a vengeful ghost seeking his life, leaving only resentment and pain.

Xue Law: “?”

A barrier of holy light appeared on him in an instant. The next moment, when the female ghost came into contact with the holy light, she felt as if she had been branded with a hot iron, and her body made a sizzling sound.

But she was still not giving up. Instead, she hid behind a bunker and started breathing on Xue Dinglu.

Xue Law: "..."

He always felt that this female ghost was the same as the spirits he had seen before, but there were some differences. Why did she react so suddenly when she saw him, and why did she not speak? She seemed to have no intelligence and was just like a spirit that acted on instinct.
As Xue Luding thought this, he withdrew the holy light shield from his body.

The female ghost immediately stopped hiding in the cover and breathing out air. Instead, she charged towards Xue Dinglu again like a vengeful ghost, her whole body twisted like a monster, her mouth seemingly about to open and let out a shrill wail.

The next moment, several chains of holy light pierced straight through her, binding her tightly in mid-air. The chains scorched her translucent soul until it seemed to be smoking. She was still struggling desperately, but her strength was getting weaker and weaker.

Xue Daolu didn't intend to kill her directly. Although she was just a female ghost who wanted to attack him, Xue Daolu couldn't understand why this time it was something like this that came.

This was the first time he had encountered such a traveler—unintelligent, unable to speak, and prone to breathing on and attacking him upon sight; it seemed to be a ghost.

But Xue's law has a necromancer expert, Old Barak. When it comes to knowledge about the undead, no one knows more about them than him!
After all, he had killed undead for decades when he was young, and then served as an undead for twenty years after his death. He understood the nature of undead better than anyone else. Although Xue Dinglu had dealt with undead quite a bit and even served as an undead for a short time, he still didn't understand them very well.

"It's come to this now, let's go find Old Deng," he said. (End of Chapter)
