Master of Kaidan-Chapter 551: Supermodel Status

"Ah, this?"

Feng Xue stared blankly at the thing in front of her, feeling a bit intimidated. However, compared to being caught and experiencing school hell, Feng Xue was more curious about how to classify it.

First from the name, it was undoubtedly a Phantom Object, but what it possessed was not the element of a Phantom Object, but a label. More importantly, it was even burning with a Kaidan Fire.

But if you were to say it was a Kaidan...

This thing didn’t seem to have any self-awareness, right?

Feng Xue thought for a moment and decided to take a risk while the 22nd-century toy was still cooling down.

Although there was a danger of being trapped in a high school reincarnation cycle for three years, this thing didn’t have labels like Imprisonment or Lockdown. If things didn’t work out, she still had the means to teleport back to the city.

In the end, after it turned into school hell, it wasn’t as dangerous as before. At least there wouldn’t be any death rules.

Her hand slid slowly down the edge of the sand table. Actually, if she took out the Feminization Filter now, she could easily determine whether the other party had consciousness. After all, the emotions and behaviors of a building were hard to judge, but if it turned into a person, it would be much easier.

But the problem lay in the lesson learned from the Pencil Spirit. Feng Xue was worried that school hell, which originally had no self-awareness, might suddenly develop a personality under the influence of the Feminization Filter.

Feng Xue’s fingers slowly touched the foundation of the school model, sliding gently, and then—

"Plunder!"

The power activated, and Feng Xue immediately felt a connection between herself and the Kaidan Fire. But Feng Xue instantly felt strong resistance, not in the subjective sense, more like a self-protection mechanism.

"No subjective consciousness, or perhaps it hasn’t had time to develop one yet?"

Feng Xue raised an eyebrow and, while the plundering power was still in effect, suddenly took an expensive steel pen from her chest pocket, flicked open the pen cap with one hand, and wrote on the wall at the main entrance of the school model:

"School Hell."

As soon as those four words landed, the resistance vanished without a trace, replaced by a kind of interaction established directly on the information level. It was as if she could understand the power she possessed through her own Kaidan Fire. In that instant, school hell seemed to transform into her Companion Phantom Object, and she understood the power that school hell possessed.

To put it plainly, she hadn’t done anything significant, just activated the Emperor of Heaven’s power, Divine Enthronement, to incorporate school hell into the underworld system when gaining ownership through plundering power. After all, school hell was still hell!

As this action took effect, a kind of information appeared that compared with the panel provided by the Golden Finger, though slightly different—that feeling was exactly the same as when Feng Xue checked her own Kaidan entries—

Entry: School Hell

Label: Brief

Description: Brief

Powers: Assimilation, Evolution, Phantom Transformation

"No Companion Phantom Object? Or is it that it is the Companion Phantom Object itself?"

Feng Xue felt a bit surprised by the information transmitted from school hell. The labels and descriptions were entirely consistent with what the Golden Finger provided, only it now had three kinds of Kaidan-exclusive powers.

First was Assimilation; it could choose an area not exceeding 20,000 square meters to unfold and assimilate, generating a school. Anyone entering the school would be subjected to School Rules and gradually assimilate with the school, eventually becoming a complete part of school hell, transforming into faculty or student NPCs. However, this assimilation wouldn’t affect the essence of those being assimilated, only an assimilation in terms of setting.

Simply put, it’s like nationality: changing your nationality doesn’t mean your ethnicity will change, only the setting of your affiliation has been changed, needing to abide by the laws of the new country. Naturally, the school rules of school hell are much more forceful than laws needing human enforcement. Simply put, the higher the level of assimilation, the more you cannot defy the school rules of school hell. Initially, you might skip classes at will, but once the assimilation level exceeds a certain standard, even daydreaming in class will be forcibly prohibited.

Next was Evolution; through the process of assimilation, it could grow by acquiring the characteristics of both biological and non-biological entities. For example, suppose the area it occupies during manifestation has a shopping mall, then it might add a small vending booth for selling items within. Should one of the people confined be a physics whiz, the level of physics courses taught could subsequently improve.

It’s foreseeable that as time rolls on, this school would inevitably grow larger, more advanced, and more complex, even into a high school community or even a school city.

Lastly, Phantom Transformation isn’t a visual transformation like in games but a literal Phantom Transformation, a power akin to Make the Most of Everything or Master of Props. Although the phantom objects created by this power are permanent, they come with many restrictions in terms of flexibility compared to Master of Props and Make the Most of Everything.

For instance, the types of phantom objects this thing can create are only Test Papers, Stationery, and Teaching Aids, and their abilities are relatively fixed. However, as assimilation and evolution continue, it could produce more types of phantom objects. For example, if it were fed a restaurant with a chef, it might just churn out food-type phantom objects.

However, compared to this promising future, what currently excites Feng Xue the most is a kind of Admission Notice. By simply writing someone’s name on it and handing it to them, you can transport that person inside school hell.

"Wow, just feeding it enough and this thing could develop into Mahoraga? Only everyone must equally endure school hell? That indeed sounds hellish."

As Feng Xue experienced the information conveyed by school hell, she couldn’t help but click her tongue. This thing was powerful, but it was still somewhat resistible at present. For instance, when the assimilation level isn’t high, simply escaping the school means leaving school hell. However, as it continues to evolve, security personnel and patrol officers would appear inside, and the stronger they become, the lower the success rate of playing truant.

"Speaking of which, this thing really resembles Infinite City in terms of growth, capturing abilities, and manufacturing phantom objects, only lacking the power to assign labels. Well, not completely absent, as what it can assign are labels such as ’Student,’ ’Teacher,’ ’Security Guard.’ By this reasoning, the numerous labels of Infinite City are probably a result of assimilating enough people and objects."

With a casual flick of Feng Xue’s finger, the school hell, now part of the Underworld, immediately activated its Disguise label power, slowly shrinking until it became a palm-sized card holder, which she then pocketed.

With a slight turn of her hand, an Admission Notice styled like a card fell into her palm. Seeing the blank name space, Feng Xue couldn’t help but reveal a villainous smile filled with malevolent charisma...
