Chapter 242
Chapter 243 Dream Invasion.
That alone made everyone with B-rank and A-rank talents feel painfully outclassed.
People had barely finished talking when the demons launched another counterattack, cutting the discussion short.
With the Spidra gone, there were still several demon king-level entities left, and they were just as troublesome.
Some demons even withdrew from the city, gathering in the wastelands to form demon nests, clearly preparing to resist the professionals led by Joanna.
Valentine also dispatched teams to set up defensive lines, and before long, this place would turn into multiple public dungeon sites, constantly funneling professionals into the area.
In this combat, Joanna was the main carry, and she didn’t hesitate at all when it came to claiming Spidra’s massive corpse.
“System Alert: This corpse contains a Mythic-level modifier: Dream Invasion. Extracting it will cost a handling fee of 999.9 billion Starcoins. Do you wish to proceed p>
“It costs money too p>
She was the one who fought for it fair and square.
Thankfully, the system immediately flashed another message.
“System Alert: Due to your outstanding completion of a Mythic-level class change quest, this modifier is granted as a reward and may be extracted for free.
“Extract now? Yes or No p>
“Yes, extract p>
In moments, Spidra’s strength was drained away, condensing into a seven-colored modifier.
Once that rainbow glow vanished, Spidra’s body became semi-transparent.
It clearly looked much weaker, but even so, the materials from its body were still Diamond-tier.
After dismantling it, the value would be at least tens of billions.
And then the Mythic-level modifier’s details appeared.
“Modifier: Dream Invasion (Mythic-level)
1/3
“Effect 1: Can only be slotted into soul-type skills. Instantly drags the target into a dream state, subconsciously hypnotizing them and making everything in the dream feel real, shattering the worldview they built in the past.
“Effect 2: Dream duration scales with the user’s Spirit stat. The stronger the Spirit, the greater the power.
“Effect 3: Can be cast over a large area.
“Effect 4: Can spread through a medium.
“Effect 5: While casting Dream Invasion, your physical body enters am invincible state and cannot be damaged by non-soul-type skills.
“Note: Be cautious of encountering untouchable entities within the dream p>
What an absurdly powerful modifier.
The only downside was that it required soul-type skills, and Nighthowl, Alwyn, and Lucien had
none.
So this modifier could only be used by Joanna.
For now, it wasn’t suitable to fuse into Lash Purgatory.
There was simply too much going on, and Joanna didn’t have time to study it properly.
Aqualis still needed to be cleared out, and things had to be wrapped up properly p>
Around that time, several of Joanna’s advisors also sent her messages.
lex wrote, “Confetti time! Congrats, Joanna. You actually completed the coursework normally uired in sophomore year right after enrollment and advanced to a mid-tier professional. I ed to log this. Was it a Mythic quest? What evaluation did you get p>
Joanna replied, “I completed a Mythic quest. The evaluation was SSS-rank p>
Alex replied, “That’s incredible, Joanna. I’ll record this right away and help apply for
Outstanding Student this year. After reaching Level 30, you unlocked an extra skill slot. I’ll help you apply for one free skill here.
Joanna wrote back, “Thank you p>
Soon after, Avery and Morgan, her other two advisors, also sent messages to check in and ask questions.

At the same time, the department heads of the three major systems, Comprehensive Dungeon Studies, Strategy Team Dungeon Studies, and Public Dungeon Studies, all received the news, and every one of them frowned.
Joanna’s strength was undeniably terrifying.
But the moment she entered the academy, she had already placed herself under Helen.
Because of that, they had been suppressing the rewards Joanna was eligible to receive, deliberately holding them back.
“What do we do now? Do we issue her Mythic-level skill upgrade stone or not?” Laurence, the department head of Comprehensive Dungeons, asked.
Back during the Divine and Demonic Training Program, everyone had placed their bets early.
Laurence had naturally dismissed a Summoner with only S-rank affinity.
Who would have thought that this very S-rank Summoner would end up single-handedly dominating the entire training program?
She had even kicked out the student he personally invested in.
Just like that, without realizing it, Joanna had already quietly offended her own department head.
Of course, as a department head, Laurence wouldn’t openly target Joanna, but the resources under his control would never tilt in her favor.
Since the start of the term, Joanna had shown no tact at all. She never came by to greet him. never brought gifts, never even added him as a contact.
e thought about it, the more he felt Joanna was relying on the fact that she was ciple and acting high and mighty.
was indeed powerful.
But she was still just a Summoner-class professor, and compared to someone like him, a department head with real authority, their standing within the Divine and Demonic Academy was simply not the same.
