Chapter 158 - Dream World And Waking World (2/2)
The illusion ended as suddenly as it came Gu Jun sucked in a deep breath He could feel his heart wrench, but it was not as painful as before He felt his body returning to normal after a few deep breaths That probably had to do with his newly acquired ability and the fact that the illusion wasn’t that intense or long
‘Spell?’ He looked at the sky that was turning dark The watcher of the diary had ultimately zombified, and he dreamed his way into the other world, so that meant that the spell scroll was left unused at the tie, but he did not find the thing he was looking for As he sighed in frustration and slammed the diary shut, he realized the diary had a leather cover
‘No way…’
With a burst of inspiration, he tried to shrug the cover off Sewn inside the leather was a yellowed parchment The parchment was filled with incouage, but Gu Jun did knohat kind of language they were There were the sae of the zombies
‘This spell exists in my consciousness technically Does that mean I can use it? Will it help me open the door that will lead me to that abandoned island?’
Gu Jun was both excited and befuddled by this surprising discovery There were still too !

At any rate, the ‘epidemic’ mentioned in the letter should refer to the zombie disease After all, the Necro-skins and hen civilization much later
Back on Earth, the Necro-skins found so far were only slightly cleverer than wild beasts Was the organization behind the this Substitute Somatic Experiment as well? In any case, whatever this experihthtmare Illness a necessary step in this experiht about it, the colder his heart felt In the shadows, so e He read the letter again and again to try to trigger an illusion, but nothing caht…
With a defeated sigh, Gu Jun turned his attention to the spell He could now confirn civilization was one well-versed in spells and ic, or at least all the Carlot Doctors kne to utilize spells The page was made with the sah the edges were , it still carried tons of inforin
“Wait ain the e appeared to come from the spell book that Landon had studied froe
“Words and letters the of spells on the wall inside the toilet, and it would do nothing but provide a distraction for the people while they were on the loo If no power’s applied when the spell’s written down, then it will have no pohen triggered, so they are nothingif I do say so myself”
