Chapter 77: Exorcist Website

Instead of waiting idly for his friends to arrive, Adam took the time to do some research on the internet.

There was actually a forum for adapter psychotherapists to exchange insights and experiences, much like forums for programmers and other occupations. The website had a very old-school name: Exorcist.

Adam had only recently found out about this website through a search engine, and it was a wealth of valuable information, all of which had been provided by experienced adapter psychotherapists.

"Let\'s see, how are anomalies with possession abilities generally dealt with..."

The forum had answers to all common questions, but of course, there were no answers pertaining to the mysteries surrounding Adam and Shae on the website.

"Possession class anomalies are a very difficult class to deal with, and there\'s no use in purely defeating them..." Adam was reading through the most upvoted answer on the forum post. "Not only are these anomalies capable of possessing all types of objects, thereby making them very difficult to capture, they are also extremely adept at fleeing for self-preservation. The only ways to kill such an anomaly would be to either kill its true body, or to kill it twice in succession. So essentially, we\'ll have to either capture its true body, or kill it once and allow it to possess something else, then kill it again."

After examining the available options, Adam decided that the first option was more applicable to himself.

In order to execute the second option, they would require someone with a restrictive ability capable of sealing an entire area, thereby trapping the anomaly and forcing it into a direct confrontation. After that, they would be able to eradicate it after killing it twice in succession.

Adam only knew one person who possessed abilities of this nature, and that was Lena, the lecturer of his first-ever lesson at Layton Academy. She had proclaimed herself to be a bit of a control freak, and as a result, virtually all of her psychic abilities were restrictive in nature.

However, Adam didn\'t know her very well, so recruiting her for the mission wasn\'t a viable option.

The best course of action available to him would be to use Hook\'s searching abilities to track down the anomaly\'s true body, then kill it in one fell swoop.

While Adam continued to conduct research on the forum, time was quickly passing by, and several hours later, Nie Yiyi and Hook arrived one after another to complete the team.

"Time to get up." After nudging Shae awake, Adam gave her a brief introduction of his two friends. "You\'ve met Hook before, he\'s from the same class as us. This is Nie Yiyi, a senior student of our academy."

"It\'s a pleasure to meet you."

Shae had a great deal of respect for those more powerful than her, so even though she was feeling rather grouchy from being woken up, she didn\'t dare to show it.

"Likewise. Let\'s begin."

Nie Yiyi was still as direct and eager to get straight to the point as ever, and at this point, Adam knew her quite well. Thus, he wasted no time with small talk, giving her a brief introduction of the patient\'s condition and the basic information they had gathered on his anomaly. After that, Kim Hee-cho plugged in the projector screen, and the second round of treatment began.

"Lay still, Li Qi, we\'re going in!"

The four of them laid their hands onto Li Qi\'s head in unison, and the group arrived in his psychic world.

They had arrived in the same cornfield as last time, and that same patch of scorched earth was still there, but some corn seedlings and wild grass had begun growing there, leading Adam to recall something that he had learned in class.

The psychic world wasn\'t the real world, and the physics, living organisms, and even the timeline behaved in different ways than they did in the real world. Once the connection was severed, there would be no further projection of footage, and everything that took place in the psychic world was directly related to the mental state of the subject, so those changes couldn\'t be predicted based on real-world standards.

"There\'s even wild grass growing here, so I presume the anomaly\'s already recovered from its injuries."

"I\'d assume so," Adam replied with a nod. "It\'s time for you to get to work, Hook. Can you track down the anomaly?"

"I\'ll go gather some leads first."

Hook\'s searching abilities weren\'t omnipotent, and he pulled out his magnifying glass as he spoke.

After searching the area for a while, he shook his head as he said, "I can only find very subtle leads that suggest that the anomaly may have traveled to the farm after the battle."

The faint outlines of a farm could be seen at the end of the cornfield.

"Let\'s go take a look."

Adam invoked his anomalies, fusing as one with Mummy while Shae fused with Hellhound, much to the surprise of Nie Yiyi and Hook.

As adapters themselves, they were more professional than Kim Hee-cho was, so they were naturally aware of just how astounding this was.

However, just like Kim Hee-cho, neither of them asked any questions, and Hook quickly turned his attention back to the job at hand as he urged, "Make sure to protect me! Not only is this anomaly extremely powerful, it\'s also very adept at sneak attacks."

"Don\'t worry, we\'ll protect you."

The other three members of the team surrounded Hook in a protective encirclement as they proceeded forward. Under Hook\'s guidance, the party of four left the cornfield and successfully arrived at the farm.

This was a very typical farmer\'s home, complete with a barn, pieces of huge agricultural machinery, a stockyard, and a residential home.

Upon their arrival, Adam knocked on the door of the home.

He didn\'t think that there would be anyone inside, but a light suddenly appeared within the darkness, and everyone hurriedly reverted back to their human forms, while Hook disguised himself as an automaton.

A moment later, the door was opened by a well-built man.

"Can I help you?"

"I didn\'t think there would actually be someone here," Shae mused.

"Of course. People can be found in everyone\'s psychic world."

Examples of this included Wang Shuai\'s baseball teammates, Chloe\'s mother, Kim Garcia\'s father... Everyone\'s psychic world contained a diverse range of things, including misery and joy, and perhaps even anomalies.

.

What they had to do now was to ask the farmer some questions to gauge the nature of his relationship with Li Qi.

Those who brought warmth to Li Qi in the real world would be able to help him in the psychic world as well.

"We are Li Qi\'s teachers, and we want to know how he\'s been doing lately."

"I didn\'t know the school was conducting home visits." The farmer was rather taken aback to hear this. "If you want to know how Li Qi\'s been doing, then you should ask my daughter, Lina. Come on in."

The farmer invited the four of them into his house, then called out, "Lina, there are teachers from your school here to see you."

A vibrant little girl emerged from one of the rooms in the house in response to the farmer\'s call.

Indeed, vibrant was the only way to describe her.

Inside Li Qi\'s psychic world, everything was enshrouded in darkness. Even though the lights were on in the room, there was still an ever-present darkness that was impossible to dispel. It was like being locked in a confinement chamber. Not only was it impossible to see anything, there was also a sense of imprisonment and asphyxiation stemming from being trapped in such an environment.

Dark color tones presided over everything in the house, including the farmer. He was wearing a pair of gray pants, and his face was concealed under shadows and completely devoid of color.

However, the little girl was wearing a floral dress, and she was as bright and vibrant as the sun. Every single crease and detail on her dress was clearly visible, and every single flower petal on the floral design was presented in exceptional detail.

It was clear that she was the light in Li Qi\'s heart.

This is exactly what we need!

Adam was ecstatic to see this, and extended a greeting toward Lina.

"Hi there, we are teachers from your school."

"Really? I\'ve never seen any of you before," Lina said with a skeptical expression.

"We are teachers assigned with the task of treating Li Qi\'s condition." Adam approached Lina, then lowered his voice so that it was audible only to the two of them before asking, "Are you willing to help him?"
