Chapter 202 The So-Called "Day of Doom"
「X023年5月7日，20:23……」
The cold and fragmented moonlight struggled to penetrate the thick clouds and sprinkled on the walls of the teaching building. Endless thick fog was swirling outside the teaching building, and the silent air was filled with a depressing atmosphere.
Outside the D Building Bridge, a team was slowly marching under the dim light. Everyone looked solemn and their steps were orderly. The clear footsteps seemed to be able to penetrate the whimpering wind in the green forest. Light and shadows intertwined in the mist, as if some strange and ferocious figures were hiding. They followed the team and slowly, slowly sank to the other side of the D Building Bridge...
As the last chef entered the corridor bridge of Building D, the soft, clear yellow light began to fade, and the scene that looked like a burnt yellowed paper slowly repaired itself like a wound healing and covered with ice and snow again, and turned into a snow-white wall again.
This scene is like someone has drawn a picture on paper with a developing watermark in advance, and then when someone brings a light source close to the painting, the hidden pattern emerges, and when the light source goes away, the pattern disappears as if it were sinking into the water.
"I...what did I do just now?!" Mao Feiyang covered his chest and gasped violently, "I really wanted to follow the security guard just now!"
“I felt like I didn’t want to go, but it was like my body was out of control!”
"Fortunately you held me down..."
Mu Daxian let go of Mao Feiyang, held onto the corridor bridge and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's normal. Few people can refuse the security guard's 'request'..."
He paused, and added: "Only those peerless masters with extraordinary talents and unprecedented talents can do this."
Is it really okay for you to brag like this... Mao Feiyang couldn't help but complain in his heart.
"That's not right! He, they just..." Mao Feiyang suddenly realized something, but it took him a long time to figure out how to express it. Finally, he slapped his head and said shockingly, "Did they just use a wall-penetrating method?!"
Mu Daxian: “…”
"If you want to understand it that way, it's not impossible." Mu Daxian started to move. "Let's go. That place has old kerosene lamps and the smell of security guards. It's very safe for us."
The two soon arrived at Building C of the teaching building. Mao Feiyang looked curiously and came to the wall. Recalling the scene he had just seen in his mind, he reached out and tried to touch it.
"Just take a look. Don't think too much while you're looking... Oh my god!" Seeing that Mao Feiyang was curious, Mu Daxian did not stop him. He just explained some precautions at the first opportunity to prevent Mao Feiyang from stepping on landmines.
But unexpectedly, Mao Feiyang reacted unconsciously as if he was attracted by something. By the time he realized it, it was too late. Mao Feiyang seemed to have touched some limit and saw... Building D's corridor bridge and at the end of the corridor bridge - the building with a very wild and abstract style!
It stands at the junction of moonlight and gray fog. The ancient bell tower is somewhat similar to the art building. It is like a corner of a church shrouded in thick smoke and fog during the Industrial Revolution. Visually, it gives people a strong sense of dream and unreality.
"What is that...?!" Mao Feiyang muttered to himself, without realizing it, a hint of fanaticism suddenly emerged in his eyes, and his body trembled slightly, as if he had seen an exciting scene.
At that moment, Lin Yi felt the same way as Mao Feiyang did, and the scene flashed before his eyes rapidly as if skipping frames...
The picture shows a world of only black and white, like the black and white image quality formed when the film is pulled out of an old camera and exposed to the sun...
A chill ran down Lin Yi's forehead as he suddenly realized that the vision he had experienced when he and Li Huiyuan were exploring the teaching building on May 5th was exactly what Maozi was seeing now.
At this moment, time seemed to wash through Lin Yi's body. He saw the kind of "dynamic and static superposition" scene that only appears in movies. Then everything around Mao Zi rushed past as if at high speed. Then, his own self on the afternoon of May 5th slowly came towards him like an illusory afterimage, and finally overlapped quietly with Mao Feiyang on May 8th!
"What I saw... turned out to be what Maozi saw a day earlier?!"
A chill instantly climbed up Lin Yi's spine. It was not until this moment that he realized that the pollution from Maozi was pervasive. It was not necessary to exchange vision for that to happen. What he saw through "my vision" was, to some extent, what Maozi had seen at different points in time in the same space? !
"Could it be that this is also part of the pollution from the Russians... a manifestation of supernatural characteristics?"
Lin Yi was shocked, but from Mao Feiyang's perspective, he saw even more shocking and terrifying changes.
The D-building covered bridge twisted in front of Mao Feiyang...
You know, no matter it is painting or photography, any picture has a perspective point, which is used to converge all sights and serve as an extreme point. The perspective point of the D Building Bridge was originally the area at the end, but at this moment, the perspective point seems to be broken into several parts.
The scene before them looked like the reality that was arbitrarily tampered with in Doctor Strange's mirror space, but compared to that space with a strong sense of geometric rules, what Lin Yi and Mao Feiyang saw was much more shattered. In this entire space, it was almost impossible to find a straight line!
All the lines are twisted, and none of the twisted directions are within the prediction of common human logic. Therefore, the more you look at it, the more creepy it makes you feel. There is an indescribable itchy and nauseous feeling like being bitten by ants.
Gradually, this sense of distortion seeped out from the D-building corridor bridge and began to spread to Mao Feiyang. At the same time, everything around Mao Feiyang began to fade, and even the light of the incandescent lamp became dim...
The whole world seemed to be dragged into another collapsed dimension in the distortion. Mao Feiyang felt that he was losing his balance. He clearly did not move at all, but the whole world was shaking like a ship on the sea being pushed by the wind and waves.
He felt like he was about to fall, but as his center of gravity continued to shift, he couldn't help but have a sense of déjà vu that if he fell, he would be swallowed up by the distorted lines of space...
As this shaking feeling appeared, the picture that Lin Yi saw continued to collapse. The discomfort that he had suppressed came over him again. Countless purebred nocturnal species suddenly appeared in the space and on the walls. They squirmed like flat dough that suddenly bulged, and then big bloodshot eyeballs popped out from the cracks in the flesh one after another.
These big eyeballs rolled around, filling the corridor bridge of Building D and the surrounding world from far and near, high and low, and all looked at Mao Feiyang. The feeling of being stared at by a strange creature made people feel like being in an ice cellar or falling into the abyss.
When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares into you.
At this moment, there is no need to stare into the abyss. The abyss is already staring at you, because you have accidentally entered the abyss...
【he came! 】
【He is coming!!】
【Come on! Come on! 】
【Ha ha ha ha……】
Mao Feiyang seemed to hear the laughter of countless pure nocturnal species, the sound of sea breeze and waves, and the call from the depths of the ocean -
【「I AvgruNnen av tKe og mrke jaGer forTapte Sjeler fanTome」】
Mao Feiyang was like a petrified being, feeling the abyss swallowing him up bit by bit. He had a strong desire to escape but his body was unable to move.
At the critical moment, he suddenly found that the distortion of the surrounding space had faded a lot, and then, as if twisted by some force, it gradually returned to its original geometric regular lines...
At the same time, the strange cries of pain began to fade, and everything seemed to be reversed.
Then a hand was placed on his shoulder, pulling him back.
Mao Feiyang turned his head and saw Mu Daxian's stern face.
Seeing that Mao Feiyang had come back to his senses, the curve of Mu Daxian's mouth softened a little.
"Don't mess around... I can't always save you. I'm lucky to have you back this time." He breathed a sigh of relief and didn't blame Mao Feiyang too much. It seemed that he was used to the art freshman's clumsy behavior of creating little surprises for him.
Mao Feiyang looked at the wall with some fear: "What's behind this wall?" "If we use the teaching building rules, it's Teaching Building D." Mu Daxian said calmly.
"Oh..." Mao Feiyang suddenly realized.
When Lin Yi heard Mao Feiyang asking about things related to Building D, his eyes suddenly lit up, but when he heard Mao Feiyang utter "Oh", he jumped in anxiety.
"Maozi, what the fuck are you doing again?!"
“It’s already this late and you’re still moaning? Can you please give me some useful information, big brother?”
Mao Feiyang seemed to echo Lin Yi's cry, and asked thoughtfully: "It sounds like there is another theory... The D building looks similar to the Art Building. Could it be that it also uses that... that virtual imaging technology?"
"That's not right... You and the homeroom teacher mentioned seeing each other in the art building. Is that part of the art building?"
Mu Daxian shook his head: "No, that's the library."
Mao Feiyang was stunned: "Is it the 'library' we passed by on the way here in the elevator?"
"That's right." Mu Daxian nodded, "The library is located between the teaching building and the art building."
Mao Feiyang suddenly had an idea: "Since we can't go to the classroom anyway, why don't we go to the library for a while and come back when it's almost midnight?"
"No." Mu Daxian directly rejected his idea.
"Why?" Mao Feiyang asked puzzled.
Mu Daxian patted the wall and said, "Because this road is one-way, when you walk across the corridor bridge and reach the library, the road disappears."
“Will it become a wall like this?”
"Well...right." Mu Daxian shrugged and avoided the question. "But you don't have much chance to go to the library, so don't ask too much. Knowing too much won't do you any good. Now is a turbulent time, so you should find a way to safely survive this wave of 'Doomsday'."
"Oh..." Mao Feiyang nodded.
"Let me think, if I remember correctly, this time should be..." Mu Daxian calculated, "'the 73rd Gray Fog Invasion'!"
"Okay..." Mao Feiyang suddenly became interested. "I just heard you and that teacher talking about Doomsday. What does this have to do with the gray fog invasion?"
Mu Daxian glanced at him, thought for a moment, and then said, "Do you really want to know?"
"Uh...is it the kind that I can't know?" Mao Feiyang was stunned.
Mu Daxian shook his head slightly: "Take a little bit..."
Mao Feiyang pursed his lips and said, "Why don't you tell me the part that was not touched?"
"..."
"You're such a fucking dog..."
Mao Feiyang chuckled but did not refute.
Mu Daxian briefly organized his thoughts and then said, "Let me give you an example."
"it is good."
"The Art Building is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the sea on one side, right?"
"um, yes."
"Deep in the sea there is a pollution source that emits strong radiation. The power of pollution permeates the sky and the sea, presenting a gray fog texture. With the tide, the pollution will penetrate the coastline and invade our world from that world..."
"The Doomsday War is the greatest battle in history. Like the Big Bang, it happened a long, long time ago, but the effects of that battle continue to permeate time and space."
"Even now, the whole world is still affected from time to time..."
"However, we cannot equate the gray fog invasion with Doomsday."
"The Gray Fog Invasion Incident refers to the 'ocean tide' that has occurred since the founding of S City University."
"It can only be considered as a larger aftermath of Doomsday..."
Mao Feiyang pondered and said, "It's like the relationship between an earthquake and aftershocks?"
"That's about right." Mu Daxian said, and then he emphasized, "However, everything I just said was just an analogy for you to understand."
"Especially when I used the analogy of the sea and the tide, you should not really understand it as the sea and the tide, otherwise I am really afraid that you will not dare to sketch after returning to the art building."
"Okay." Mao Feiyang nodded.
The two of them just stayed here, and the scene in front of Lin Yi's eyes began to fluctuate slightly, and then this fluctuation became stronger and stronger...
Finally, Lin Yi’s thoughts returned to the previous “first level of dream”.
The time in the dream should be around 5:7 on May 23. Mao Feiyang was walking in the teaching building under the leadership of Mu Daxian, and behind him was a group of purebred nocturnal species with "signal delay".
"Until just now, there was no clue that Maozi had lost the student commemorative coins..." Lin Yi seemed to be thinking, "Could it be that there was a problem when he was riding the elevator?"
Thanks to the book friend "usjdnshhs" for the reward!!
