I was just fishing, how did I become a Great Old One?

One week later, Jianghai University.

The auditorium was brightly lit and bustling with activity.

Today is the Outstanding Student Commendation Ceremony, the most solemn day for the entire school.

Jiang Li, dressed in a custom-made, expensive suit (though he looked like an insurance salesman in it), led Da Huang (who was wearing a tuxedo) and swaggered into the auditorium.

"Brother, over here!"

Jiang Xiaoyu, dressed in her graduation gown, stood in the first row and waved excitedly.

"Here it comes!"

Jiang Li squeezed through the crowd and sat in the very middle of the family section.

The parents nearby cast strange glances at the dog, which was wearing sunglasses and a suit.

"Ahem, guide dog, guide dog."

Jiang Li made up a story on the spot, pointing to his sunglasses, "My eyes are a little sensitive to light."

Da Huang sat upright, his eyes fixed straight ahead, displaying the demeanor of a gentleman.

But its nose was twitching slightly.

There was a faint, unpleasant smell in the auditorium.

It resembles a rotting rat, or a fermenting sewer.

"Woof..." (Master, something's up.)

Big Yellow whimpered softly.

Shh! Be quiet, the principal is about to speak.

Jiang Li patted the dog's head and looked at the stage with a serious expression.

On the stage, the principal with the Mediterranean-style haircut was walking confidently toward the podium.

He picked up his teacup and took a sip to moisten his throat.

"Ahem! Dear teachers, students, and parents..."

The principal's voice was loud and clear.

But as he spoke, his expression suddenly turned somewhat strange.

His once rosy face began to turn pale, large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his voice became hoarse.

"Cough cough... Today... cough cough..."

suddenly!

"puff!"

The principal suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood, slumped onto the podium, and began to convulse violently.

"Oh! What's wrong with the principal?!"

"Call an ambulance immediately!"

An uproar erupted from the audience, and the teachers rushed onto the stage in a panic.

However, something even more terrible happened.

The teachers who came into contact with the principal immediately developed bluish-purple patches on their faces, and then began coughing, spitting blood, and collapsing to the ground.

It was like toppling dominoes.

Panic spread through the auditorium.

"Plague! It's plague!"

Someone screamed in terror.

A visible green toxic fog filled the air and spread rapidly.

Anyone exposed to the poisonous fog will experience skin ulceration, loss of consciousness, and the utterance of wild, beast-like roars.

【Abyss Plague - Zombification】(Level B Biohazard Attack)!

This is a carefully planned conspiracy by that lurking cultist; he wants to turn this ivory tower into a living hell today!

"Hehehe... Feel the pain! Howl in this despair!"

On the dome of the auditorium, the dark figure hung upside down, letting out a triumphant laugh.

Jiang Xiaoyu turned pale with fright and gripped Jiang Li's hand tightly: "Brother... what happened to them?"

Jiang Li frowned deeply as he looked at the chaotic scene on the stage.

"This principal... his physical condition is really terrible!"

He stood up, his face full of disappointment and frustration.

"You choked like this just from drinking a sip of tea? And you even passed it on to others?"

In his eyes (with all filters on), this was hardly a zombie plague.

This was clearly a sudden and extremely serious incident...

"Is this a mass food poisoning outbreak? Or is it some kind of acute flu?"

Jiang Li looked at those people who were "pale and vomiting incessantly" and made a "scientific" judgment.

"There's definitely something wrong with this school cafeteria! The hygiene standards are substandard!"

"Brother, what should we do?"

"Don't be afraid, I'm here, it's just a minor illness."

Jiang Li calmly took out a huge watering can from his backpack (that was the one he usually used to water the flowers and plants in the yard with "divine water").

"Perfect timing, I brought some 'Isatis root' (actually diluted life essence + lightning-struck wood ash water), which is a cure for all kinds of colds, fevers and flu."

"Big Yellow! Go! Hold down that guy who's spitting everywhere (the mutated headmaster)!"

"Woof!"

Big Yellow transformed into a bolt of lightning and rushed out, pinning the mutant that was trying to bite to the ground with a single claw.

Jiang Li grabbed a spray bottle and rushed onto the podium.

"Get out of the way! I'm the school doctor (self-proclaimed)!"

He then launched into a tirade against the still-convulsing principal, shoving his words right in his face.

"Sizzle sizzle—"

A mist of water, imbued with powerful vitality and purifying power, was sprayed out.

The abyss virus that was originally eroding the principal's body melted instantly with a hissing sound when it encountered this mist, just like snow meeting fire.

The bluish-purple patches on the principal's face faded at a visible rate, and his breathing became steady.

"Cough cough... I... what's wrong with me?" The principal opened his eyes groggily.

"It's nothing, I just choked on my tea and got a bit of a sore throat."

Jiang Li patted the principal's face, "Drink less strong tea and more hot water in the future."

Then, he turned to the group of students and parents below the stage who had begun to mutate and activated the "artificial rain" mode.

"Don't panic! Open your mouths! One bite each! It'll cure all your ailments!"

Jiang Li turned the spray bottle to the highest setting and sprayed the crowd wildly.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle—"

The entire auditorium was filled with mist.

Those originally ferocious "zombies" became peaceful instantly after being sprayed with water mist, collapsing to the ground and falling fast asleep as if they had just finished a sauna.

Even the green toxic fog in the air was completely purified by this sacred aura, turning into fresh air.

"This...this is cured?"

The shadowy figure hiding in the dome was dumbfounded.

That's the plague of the abyss! An incurable disease!

You think you can just spray it a couple of times with a spray bottle? Is that Banlangen granules? Or is that Guanyin Bodhisattva's jade bottle?

"Who's up there?"

Jiang Li suddenly raised his head and looked at the dome.

Just now, when he was spraying water, he felt a drop of dirty water fall on his face.

"This huge auditorium leaks when it rains?"

He squinted and saw the upside-down dark figure.

"That's... a large bat?"

Jiang Li remembered that her house was missing a clothes hook.

"This thing hangs pretty stably there."

He picked up a leather shoe that had been knocked off from the ground.

"Get down here!"

"Whoosh—"

The leather shoe whistled through the air and struck the dark figure precisely in the face.

"Bang!"

The dark figure screamed and fell from the dome, which was more than ten meters high, landing right in front of Big Yellow.

Without a second thought, Big Yellow lunged forward and bit his neck.

"Well……"

Just as the shadowy figure tried to struggle, it felt a terrifying spatial and temporal force lock onto its soul.

If he dares to move even slightly, his head will be severed immediately.

"This bat is really ugly, even though it's human-shaped."

Jiang Li walked over and kicked him.

"Urinating or defecating in public, damaging public property, creating panic... send him to the police station."

……

Ten minutes later.

The auditorium returned to calm.

People who woke up felt as if they had just had a nightmare. Although they were physically weak, they were in high spirits.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang! You are truly a miracle doctor!"

The principal grasped Jiang Li's hand, tears streaming down his face, "If it weren't for you, the consequences today would have been unimaginable!"

"Not at all, it's just a folk remedy."

Jiang Li waved his hand modestly, "It's mainly because everyone is in good physical condition."

Jiang Xiaoyu stood to the side, watching her brother surrounded by everyone, her eyes filled with stars.

"My brother is amazing! He can even cure the flu!"

In the corner, the figure bound hand and foot watched this scene and shed tears of despair.

The abyss... there's no hope left.

This man... is the bane of the abyss!
