nActivating the special skill, Wei Xiao Bei could feel that something formless had appeared with him as its center. It spread everywhere and even went underground.

nHe could perceive everything in the range of the electromagnetic field.

nEh?

nWei Xiao Bei wrinkled his eyebrows. If this was the only effect of the skill, then it only had little value.

nThere was no doubt that the current effect of Electromeagnetic Field was the same as Response Search.

nHowever, Response Search’s radius was around four hundred meters!

nWhereas Electromagnetic Field’s was only five meters!

nWhat use is this?

nHowever, Wei Xiao Bei did not believe that this skill only had one use. His intuition was telling him that this skill had something special about it.

nAs he could not understand the skill at all, he did not stay on the rooftop any longer. He charged to the parapet and prepared to rush to the desert in the shortest amount of time. He wanted to see the Fire Dragon’s movements before returning to the real world and checking how Huang Kun was doing.

nAlthough Electromagnetic Field appeared useless, Wei Xiao Bei had activated it as it did not use up too much energy.

nHe wanted to find its true use and felt that having it continuously activated might not be a bad idea.

nJust when Wei Xiao Bei passed the parapet, a rusted lightning rod entered the range of the electromagnetic field. Wei Xiao Bei could feel that a bit of electric current had been lost.

nWhat happened?

nWei Xiao Bei reacted instantly and grabbed the parapet and pulled himself up.

nOnce again an electric current had been lost.

nWei Xiao Bei’s gaze immediately moved towards the rusted lightning rod.

nThere is no mistake about it!

nWei Xiao Bei came to a realization.

nSo it was like that.

nIn truth, even a junior middle school student could come to the same answer.

nWhat would happen when metal passes through an electromagnetic field?

nBingo! You answered correctly!

nThe electric current would appear inside the metal!

nTo be more accurate, it was called conductivity.

nThen what was the true use of the electromagnetic field?

nIt meant that electric current would pass through metallic objects as long as it was within the range of the electromagnetic field!

nHowever, using the corroded lightning rod to experiment with was not enough. Wei Xiao Bei pulled out a great spear from his storage bag.

nThis great spear was not the Divine White Mist Great Spear, but its partner great spear.

nCompared to the Divine White Mist Great Spear, this great spear’s power was a bit weaker. If it did not have the effect of strengthening the Divine White Mist Great Spear it would only be seen as a very sharp spear.

nWei Xiao Bei waved the great spear inside the electromagnetic field, causing him to immediately feel the electric current that passed through the metal spear from his hand.

nNaturally, the electric current generated was not able to harm him at all, but if it was a normal person, they might have let go from the shock.

nThe voltage of the electric current or the so-called electromotive force was around fifty volts while the strength was around twenty milliamperes.

nWei Xiao Bei did not stay on the rooftop anymore. He jumped down the building and ran to the desert, while still experimenting with the great spear.

nEvery single experiment had a different result due to many factors.

nHowever, the electric current’s strength and voltage could not exceed what Wei Xiao Bei could output himself. However, the limit was unknown as he needed to return to the real world and measure it with an apparatus.

nThere was no doubt that the skill’s true strength lied in when his opponents held metal weapons, as they would be electrified.

nMoreover, Wei Xiao Bei could already feel that the electromagnetic field that the skill produced was different from normal electromagnetic fields.

nAs for how it was different, Wei Xiao Bei still needed to figure that out.

nSoon, he could feel the benefit of the electromagnetic field.

nAfter stepping on Cui Hu University’s grounds, he could feel that something was different.

nThere were no zombies in sight. However, he saw a gigantic piece of paper on the plaza in front of the school building. There was a giant pencil the size of a giant tree floating on top of it.

nThere was no mistake that it was a giant pencil.

nAfter Wei Xiao Bei moved closer, he could feel a bit of danger coming from it that made his back slightly numb.

nWhen Wei Xiao Bei had just taken a glimpse of it, the giant pencil slowly began to move.

nFuck! What is happening?

nAlarms in Wei Xiao Bei’s head began to sound more than before.

nA low mumble echoed from the plaza with the melodious voice of a girl that was not yet twenty.

n“Pencil spirit, pencil spirit. Please think of a question. If you can’t think of one just make one up. Pencil spirit please come and don’t let go…”

nFollowing the girl’s voice, the pencil moved faster immediately, a fuzzy human figure appearing under the pencil.

nMoreover, Wei Xiao Bei, who had been maintaining the electromagnetic field, felt a strange wave passing through it.

nHow could he still stay hesitant? He immediately dodged and moved quickly. In less than a second, he had already distanced himself from the plaza.

nHowever, even if he had left the plaza, he still felt strangely nervous, feeling that there was a problem that he could not notice.

nRight, the battle log.

nUnder normal circumstances, he would be able to find out what happened in the battle log after meeting these kinds of existences.

nBattlelog:

n……

nThe host has encountered an incomplete pencil spirit ceremony and left without permission.

n…

nThe host has been cursed by the pencil spirit.

n…

nThe host has successfully defended from the curse.

n…

nThe second effect of the Fortune Tea (All evils will be repelled, ten thousand magics will not invade for three days) has been weakened.

n…

nThe pencil spirit is currently looking at the host’s every movement from above the host’s head.

n……

nFuck!

nIn an instant, Wei Xiao Bei felt goosebumps and shouted instantly, “Release electricity!”

nBoom!

nFollowing an electric explosion and the spread of blue electric arcs, Wei Xiao Bei’s body had been instantly covered in electricity that spread out.

nHe only heard the mournful voice of a girl above his head, causing him to immediately look up and see the illusory girl about to thrust a pencil at him. However, the electricity immediately broke out and submerged the girl in it.

nAs the plasma dissipated, the girl had disappeared.

nWei Xiao Bei, who was still frightened, immediately checked his battle log, but he was instantly enraged when he saw it.

nBattle log:

n…

nThe host has dispersed the pencil spirit after releasing electricity.

n…

nThis triggered the dish spirit and chopstick spirit’s hostility.

n…

nThe spirits have cursed the host.

n…

nThe Fortune Tea has lost its effect.

n…

nThe Curse of Ten Thousand Spirits has afflicted the host.

n…

nFor ten days, the host will be in a state of constant bad luck.

n……

nFuck! Such a thing can happen?

nWei Xiao Bei had read and knew about these so-called pencil spirit, dish spirit, chopstick spirit, etc.

nIn truth, these were only popular in college and with high school students as a game of summoning spirits. It originated from China’s oldest witchcraft, ‘planchette writing’. These were only a simpler variation of it.

nBefore all this, Wei Xiao Bei had constantly scoffed at these kinds of things and simply did not believe them.

nIf such a thing truly existed then there would not be any need to study or work hard anymore. People could just ask spirits where they could pick up money and become rich.

nHowever, Wei Xiao Bei could now only believe in it and curse their existence.

nHow could such a thing appear in Cui Hu University?

nCould it be another popular movie that had begun screening?

nAfter Resident Evil, Wei Xiao Bei began to pay attention to the movies in Cui Hu City.

nAfter recalling, Wei Xiao Bei knew that there was no such type of movie showing. On the contrary, many were historical films such as ‘Legend of Zhao Zi Long’ or ‘Secrets of the Han Dynasty’.

nNaturally, he was currently displeased.

nAll of the spirits had cursed him and ended the effects of Fortune Tea prematurely!

nIt was as if there were thousands of people pointing fingers at him causing the Fortune Tea to be unable to block it.

nCurse of Ten Thousand Spirits! Misfortune!

nNo matter how low his educational attainment was, he knew what this meant.

nBang!

nAs he thought about this matter, he had carelessly kicked a brick on the road.

nThe unfortunate brick had instantly been crushed to pieces.

nNothing bad happened to his foot, but he realized that the bad luck had begun.

nEverything would become harmful and ominous!

nIn other words, from now on, no matter what he did it will not go smoothly, and whatever he did would be met with bad luck!

nSince that was the case, Wei Xiao Bei looked toward the plaza. Perhaps because the pencil spirit had been dissipated, the large pencil had stopped moving. Instead, a large dish had appeared at the intersection ahead.

nWei Xiao Bei was too late in avoiding these kinds of strange existences. After thinking about it, he moved toward the perimeter wall, as staying away from Cui Hu University was the best solution for now.

nIn the end, at the same time as Wei Xiao Bei passed over the wall, it had collapsed and a large hole had formed on the other side. Wei Xiao Bei could not even dodge as he fell in, causing his head to be covered in dirt and his body in mud.
