Chapter 200: Chapter 200: Weakness Of Ghost

“These are the most aiding things that can help hasten the pace to possess a person.” Betty continued.

Christina nodded, her eyes shifting to Lana with a sparkle. “Does anyone want to add anything?”

The next second, Wade chimed in, “If a person constantly watches negative things, it can affect the possession speed too.”

“There are also some crystals or artifacts that can speed up the possession,” Layla said softly.

“Also, if the ghost invites more ghosts, the target is done for!” Fay sighed.

Quinn lazily looked at his classmates and sighed, ’These idiots. Don’t they know… Christina is waiting for Lana to reply.’

Sure enough, the next second, Christina turned toward Lana and asked softly, “Lana, do you have something that you want to add?”

Lana froze for a brief second before giving her honest reply, “Fear. Ghost thrives on fear. As long as a person is afraid, there is no need for the presence of any artifact or roaming in any negativity-filled area; even crystals aren’t effective if the person is courageous.”

Lana wasn’t speaking without proof. It was later revealed in scientific studies that those who show extraordinary courage often have high chances of escaping ghosts or surviving a possession.

Quinn lazily looked at Lana and gave a dismissive snort. “Fear isn’t everything. What type of ghost a person encounters decides the possession rate.”

“That’s your answer, and I understand your thought process; however, till the real scientific research is conducted, no one knows which is the right answer,” Lana replied in a nonchalant voice.

She didn’t continue to argue; she didn’t feel the urge to correct Quinn.

The research that was going to be conducted in the future can’t be pushed to now. And neither was she planning to use the future knowledge to crush a genuinely smart person.

Christina stared at Lana with admiration.

“Lana is correct. I agree with her answer more. Nevertheless, everyone else’s answers were correct since they were derived from personal experience.”

Her words made all the other classmates feel less resistant toward Lana’s answer, which didn’t go unnoticed by Lana. She marvelled at the fact that teachers in mystic departments have high EQ.

“Now, let’s begin with our topic. Fear. One of the weaknesses of ghosts. Even if you feel a hand squeeze your heart till the point that it becomes difficult, even if your legs are trembling, keep a calm front; a ghost can help you immensely in dealing with…”

Lana learned a lot of things, even though she was a reborn person.

Like how some ghosts (especially worldly ones) have a deep connection with an object or desire that, once fulfilled, cuts off all the relationship of that ghost to the world. However, what surprised her even more was the facts about the ghost exiting the ghost portal.

Ghosts out of portals have a story too. Sometimes they don’t need to annihilate them; sometimes they could talk things out and save the possessed.

Even though Lana felt the approach was rather unrealistic, she still listened.

The weaknesses of ghosts ranged from mystic energy to talismans. There was also some ghost who broke all the norms. They might be unaffected by all of them.

Usually, these ghosts have cultivation far above the mystic cultivator or the talisman. In those conditions, the most suitable counterattack was… defense.

Like the case where Lana had protected Naina by injecting some of her mystic energy through some… unspeakable methods and increased Naina’s life force.

The lecture continued till Christina assigned them the homework.

To be precise, it was more of university work. They were asked to spend to get a 5-minute recording of them not flinching in the presence of a ghost.

With the university’s ghost simulation room, they only needed to stay behind for a few extra minutes rather than going out and actually hunting for ghosts.

Christina didn’t leave immediately after the lectures were over; instead, she stayed behind, looking as if she hadn’t digested the food she had eaten before the lecture.

“Is there anything you want, Miss Christina?” Lana asked kindly.

As if on cue, Christina opened her mouth, but Wade beat her to it and laughed.

“Lana, you must be imagining things. What could Miss Christina possibly want? It isn’t like she might want to see your yellow mystic energy, right? It is not like your yellow mystic energy is the eighth wonder of the world! Haha!”

Wade’s laughter echoed in the empty silence of the classroom, making everyone else sigh in their heart.

Just how clueless can someone be?

Christina gritted her teeth before saying in a stern voice, “After checking all the papers of the previous semester, Wade, your scores have dropped significantly. You will copy the textbook of this subject 10 times.”

Wade’s expression changed. Just a few seconds ago, he was joking, and now… he looked more like a joke than others. It was… devastating.

“Why do I get punished every single time? It’s so unfair!” Wade murmured under his breath, while Layla rolled her eyes, commenting,

“Because you are the most stupid among all of us.”

Lana almost laughed out loud; she watched as Christina walked out of the department with a reluctant expression.

For the sake of her future grades, Lana followed her out, and when Christina felt a presence, she turned around sharply, “Wade, you can forget… oh! Lana dear, what are you doing here?”

The transformation of a voice filled with malice to a honeyed voice made Lana break out in goosebumps.

“That teacher… I wanted to show you my energy and wanted to get some pointers. Are you free?”

“She is!” Another voice chimed in, and both Lana and Christina turned around only to find Tyler Red. A middle-aged man wearing a formal pastel green shirt with black pants, his neat black hair was short, while his tanned skin highlighted his sharp muscles.

The moment he appeared, Lana sighed in her heart. Tyler was the teacher of energy cleanser classes.
