24. Russell's bizarre talent

The ghost of a duck walked past the podium, followed by a large group of obedient duckling ghosts, swaying from side to side and making rattling sounds. It can be seen that the duck died neatly and happily.

The ghost of a trilobite attaches itself to a desk.

A large group of salmon ghosts are returning to the ceiling of the classroom.

As soon as Russell wanted to take a closer look at the salmon returning, a large squid ghost emerged from the ceiling, and the spitting spirit ink blocked Russell's vision.

Outside the window, the ghost of an Archaeopteryx swirls around the playground, surrounding another mammoth ghost on the playground.

In a clearing next to the grove, a Tyrannosaurus rex ghost is battling a Triceratops ghost, and it looks like the winner will be decided immediately.

Russell also noticed that in a certain direction on the edge of the playground, there were a large number of ghosts of chickens, ducklings, fish, cows, sheep, and rats, many of which had a trace of black gas in their bodies.

"Strangely, these ghosts have a trace of resentment in their bodies, and if this trace of resentment is amplified, there is a very small chance that it will be transformed into resentful spirits. According to the knowledge on the scroll, this black gas usually appears after the grave is dug up and the body is dismembered.

"Could it be that these are ghosts that have been dismembered after death?

"Oh yes, that's the direction of the cafeteria!"

Do other students see the same things as me?

Soon, Russell came back to his senses and realized that the other classmates didn't seem to see anything unusual.

"I've succeeded in FM, and now I can only see ghosts that died after the 20th century."

"Me too."

Only my vision is problematic?

What's going on?

Ask Professor Black Amber after class...... Russell muttered inwardly.

Over the next few hours, Professor Black Amber began teaching the students the skills of communication and exorcism.

Russell listened to the lecture while holding his slightly swollen head, sorting out the psychic knowledge in his brain, and feeling the extraordinary abilities he had acquired.

Ordinary ghosts lack mind and emotion, cannot see with the naked eye, and cannot interfere with physical reality.

Only when they transform into undead creatures such as ghosts, resentful spirits, and earthbound spirits, or if a psychic person drives the ghost and infuses the spirit with its own spiritual energy, will the ghost gain the ability to think, can be seen by the naked eye, and can affect the physical reality to a certain extent.

First-year students in the Department of Necromancy and Life, also known as psychics, can learn to master a variety of psychics-based extraordinary abilities, in addition to psychic vision, there are roughly the following -

The first ability is to drive spirits.

Psychics can summon and control ghosts or other natural spirits, causing them to move objects and create paranormal phenomena.

When driving spirits, they can also share their sight or other senses, and use ghosts as scouts for scouting.

The second ability is possession.

After summoning the soul of the deceased to possess them, the psychic can temporarily gain one or two abilities or knowledge that were most prominent during the deceased's lifetime.

For example, after summoning the soul possession of the swimming champion, the swimming skills will be improved; After summoning a soldier's soul possession, shooting and combat skills will be slightly improved.

Of course, the expertise retained by the ghost will be significantly weaker than the level of the deceased. Not all ghosts retain their abilities in life, and it has to do with luck.

The third ability is the contract spirit.

For psychics, in addition to temporarily driving the surrounding ownerless spirits, they can also sign contracts with rare spirits that have supernatural powers.

The different transcendent spirits of the contract have different abilities, so that each psychic may have different abilities.

Contract spirits are the name given to the academy and are known in different ways around the world, depending on culture and folklore traditions.

The popular evil art of "raising little ghosts" in East and Southeast Asia, the Kuman Tong in Thailand, the Chuma Immortal in Northeast China, and the spirits of the primitive shaman inheritance all belong to the contract spirits, but the specific content of the contract is different.

Finally, psychics can also learn some soul-related spells.

It is a pity that Russell cannot directly obtain the above-mentioned supernatural abilities even if he absorbs the knowledge scroll, but only has a rough impression. It also needs to go through repeated study and training before you can really master it!

……

After class.

in the hallway.

"Child, you mean to say that you see a lot of animal ghosts. What rabbits, ducks, mice, cod, eels, T-Rex, Brontosaurus, Archaeopteryx, Trilobites and the like? ”

Professor Black Amber was amazed at what Russell had seen.

"Exactly, Professor." "I'm going to find time to borrow a microscope and see if I can see the ghosts of bacteria, viruses and single-celled animals." ”

"It's amazing, it's not normal vision." Black Amber said.

"Hasn't anyone seen the ghost of a trilobite before?" Russell was surprised.

Black Amber says with great certainty:

"To the best of my knowledge, no. Undead creatures that are transformed by animal ghosts do exist, but they are extremely rare and limited to a specific number of psychic animals. ”

"Like cats?" Russell looked at Professor Black Amber and narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, such as the cat ghost raised by the East Asian witch sorcerer." Professor Black Amber didn't make any fluctuations in his tone.

"But I haven't heard of any psychic who communicates the spirits of salmon, triceratops, and trilobites."

As she spoke, Black Amber suddenly became excited:

"Child, the vision has changed in your body, transforming into a more powerful form!

"Russell, my previous guess was right. You're a magical genius, a mutant!

"There have been such magical geniuses in history, and the same extraordinary power, in your hands, there is a certain probability that it will be distorted into a more special and powerful form."

"Uh, will it get weaker? Or are there side effects? Russell asked.

"It's not impossible."

Black Amber gives an example:

"More than a hundred years ago, there was a priest who was a magical genius like you.

"He is a master summoner known throughout the supernatural world. All summons that pass through his hands will be transformed into more powerful, weirder, and more uncanny forms.

"In 1908, the priest traveled alone to the Siberian forests of Russia to summon 1,000 young boys with a newly developed spell, which resulted in a huge explosion.

"He himself was crushed in the explosion.

"Oh my God, the First World War hadn't even begun, and it was still 30 years before the discovery of nuclear fission, and the entire transcendent world couldn't figure out what the priest had summoned. This also became a major unsolved case and an important research topic in the supernatural world at that time. ”

"It's a pity," Russell asked, feigning regret, "that it wasn't until World War II that people figured out what happened that day?" ”

"Yes. Later, the transcendent realm realized that the failed summoning of the year was accidentally connected to the future timeline and pulled a dangerous weapon projection. ”

Russell suddenly felt that he knew something very impressive. (Note 1)
