The Last Gentleman

Chapter 269: Each Deploys Their Tactics

Before the nightmare scene eroded into the front of Swan School,

those with keen perception had captured a movement of Yi Chen’s lips as he hung, whispering softly, through further analysis, they could decipher the language of the Old World that he spoke.

§Nightmare Realization§

It was after these words that the nightmare began to invade reality, even going so far as to dye the surrounding star formations ink-black and claim them as its own.

Drip-drop, drip-drop~

Varieties of ink began to seep out between the top and the walls of the school,

and tentacles spreading from the nightmare swiftly swelled and split, rapidly taking over all areas of the school, preparing to launch an attack on those present.

The Prophets present also switched forms,

the elderly man at the door replaced his flute with a staff,

the two-faced Prophet reverted to his front side, his entire demeanor suddenly turning ferocious,

the Reader also pulled out a completely different book emitting an aura of devouring,

and the Black Prophet on the second floor clenched his six palms into fists, with all the eyes on his palms moving to his forehead, ready to perform a physical exorcism.

Sealed Yuri made no move;instead, the maid behind him shifted into a battle stance,

Yi Chen had one hand pressed to his face, ready to activate “Dead Man Makeup” at any moment.

Just as everyone was ready to move,

particles, like cosmic dust, dispersed throughout the school, joining with the intrinsic Star River Barrier of the campus, interconnecting to form a geometric surface that fitted the school’s inner walls,

Just as the nightmare tentacles were about to strike at the people, the geometrical surface began to compress inward, affecting only the nightmare elements without impacting anyone present.

As the geometric body continually compressed,

ultimately, all the nightmare material inside was annihilated completely, leaving no trace, even the stained stars were obliterated, seeming to possess a capability of spatial separation.

This was precisely the technique of Principal Daisline, who was currently spreading her black feathery wings wide, with her arms crossed in front of her chest in a compressing posture.

Although it seemed completely annihilated,

there was actually a single droplet of nightmare liquid that had been isolated and was now securely sealed within a small cube with a glossy star-like luster, consolidated in the palm of the Principal, to serve as an important clue for further investigation.

Such a method also left Yi Chen astonished, no wonder the Principal held such a high status. Even among the high-ranking group of Prophets, the Principal still firmly held the top position.

At this moment, Daisline had already put on the Crying Mask, her aura completely sealing the school.

“No one is to leave! Everyone please conduct a ‘self-check,’ and if you are unable to do so, I will personally check you to ensure that we haven’t been infected by any nightmare factors.”

The so-called self-check involved using the “Gentleman’s Skin” for a full-body inspection, after which the findings would be publicly disclosed.

Only after confirming that no one had issues, did the Principal lift the school’s barrier.

“Now I will take this sealed sample to the Pathological Re

“I’m not joking with you, be serious, this is no small matter.”

“No problem… Honestly, I even thought about sleeping naked to re-experience a similar nightmare by being dragged into one.”
