Chapter 297: The Portal of the Dense Forest and the Coastline
Chapter 297: The Portal of the Dense Forest and the Coastline
Who would have thought that the fake man Li Kai didn’t die immediately after his heart exploded!
He could feel that the vitality of the fake man Li Kai was deflating rapidly like a tire with a hole in it, but deflation is also a process.
He thought that the fake person Li Kai would explode like a balloon, but he didn't expect it to be just like a tire?
"What a miscalculation!"
Before he could think of his next move, the gradually "deepening" stinging sensation from his back made him feel the threat of death once again.
But he really couldn't move now.
He and the fake Li Kai were now like the two dead men on the top of a pile of corpses after a war, nailed to death by spears and countless arrows.
The only part of Lin Yi that could move was his palm, and every piece of flesh of the pseudo-man Li Kai was exerting force, just like a dying octopus using up its last bit of strength to try to strangle its prey.
Suddenly, Lin Yi began to devour the surrounding "primitive pollution" like a bottomless pit. His subconscious mind urged the "primitive pollution" to transform into a sky-blue aura to repair his broken body...
In this way, although he was still suffering from the harm of the fake man Li Kai, under the effect of the sky blue aura and his own strong recovery ability, it could not be said that he completely offset the opponent's harm, but at least he prevented further damage to his body.
He failed to kill the fake man Li Kai instantly, but with his strong recovery ability, he could kill him with some time by fighting with the opponent.
The fake man Li Kai was stunned. The next moment, a wave of excitement as if he had seen a ghost appeared in his gray stone eyes: "Impossible..."
"This is impossible……"
"You must die...you must!"
"Damn... this plot is wrong!" Lin Yi's forehead was already covered with sweat. "Shouldn't a normal script contain 'impossible' and then wait for death obediently? What kind of novel plot is 'must die'?!"
If some loser was walking here, he would definitely say helplessly, "Brother, you are a villain. This kind of extreme one-for-one positive energy operation when you are about to die should not happen to you." Then he would draw out the seven deadly sins and kill it one by one.
But he doesn't have the seven deadly sins, he only has himself.
But since the other party got the decent lines, he could only shamelessly shout out the lines that every villain would shout:
"No, I have to live!"
Yes, he must survive.
There was no reason, not to take one more look at the boss or Li Huiyuan, nor to laugh with Wei Liang again, but rather a pure, physiological desire to be alive.
I don't want to die, and I can't die, so... I must live.
The bright golden flame rekindled in his eyes, and his pupils were like a blazing sun rising in the dark night. At this moment, all the breath flowed through his palms into the body of the pseudo-man Li Kai, frantically crushing his last bit of life.
But the fake man Li Kai seemed unusually calm.
"Let's die together."
Its lines were still so positive, like a hero going to die alone, making Lin Yi feel even more like a complete bastard.
The next moment, all the hairs on Lin Yi's body stood up, and his scalp felt numb as if someone had poked him with an electric baton. A creepy sense of crisis suddenly rose from the body of the fake man Li Kai, as if an abyss swallowed him up!
The fake man Li Kai detonated all the extraordinary powers in his body.
He blew himself up.
And Lin Yi was at the center of the explosion.
“Bang—”
Lin Yi only felt that a kind of energy compressed to the extreme was released in front of him, and the vision in front of him was even slightly distorted because of this impact.
Along with a heavy explosion, an indescribable feeling came like a tsunami, overwhelming Lin Yi from all directions.
There was only a white light left in front of Lin Yi's eyes. Even the sense of pain was wiped out and he could not feel anything.
Art is an explosion, and once it explodes it lasts a lifetime.
Too plain and simple.
So pure.
That’s…fucking fucked.
"Boss, did you know that the fake Li Kai will explode?!"
"So you're sure it can't kill me?"
If this was the boss's idea, then at the last moment when the white light filled Lin Yi's entire field of vision, Lin Yi had never trusted the boss's judgment on him so much...
The white light gradually faded away...
He heard some rumors.
Good news...still alive.
There seemed to be some sound of waves in the sound of the wind.
Bad news… this is definitely not a gym.
After knowing the worst outcome, Lin Yi was surprisingly calm.
"First of all, I need to confirm one thing... Is it me who lost the level this time, or was I nearly killed by the explosion, and then came to the perspective of others..."
"Or maybe a little bit of each..."
The white light dissipated, and Lin Yi's vision gradually became clear.
He seemed to be in the depths of a dense forest, and at the end of his vision there seemed to be... a white light?
"Eh... this environment... seems a little familiar..."
Lin Yi thought of the scene when Mu Daxian and Maozi were traveling deep in the green forest belt, but this seemed a little different from that.
"It's not the scene at that time, but..."
It was the scene in the vision that appeared when he was acquiring a large amount of information from H comics in the classroom!
Fortunately, this perspective was still moving at a speed that was not normal for humans, which meant that Lin Yi did not drop out of the layer, nor did he enter the vision, but his perspective jumped to someone else.
Because he had experienced perspective shifting before, but that shift was influenced by his subjective will.
So whose perspective will it be this time?
So far, the perspectives he has entered in his dreams are only those of Master Tian, Wei Sang, and Maozi, and it seems that some of Kuai Kuai's are also included.
As for Liangzi… he has never had Wei Liang’s perspective.
Not to mention whether he has Wei Liang's perspective or not, even if he does, he is still passionately practicing with Xiao Zhouzi at this time!
So...Mr. Tian?
The dilapidated abandoned teaching building seems to be from Mr. Tian's perspective, so it should be ruled out...
Where are the Maozi?
Maozi's perspective is on the art building layer. The last time the perspective was switched, he was still in that staircase, so this should be ruled out...
So...is it Wei Sang or Kuai Kuai?
If he had to choose one, Lin Yi was more inclined to believe that this was Kuai Kuai's perspective.
Kuai Hongji is a loner among Lin Yi's roommates. He is gloomy and silent, and he rarely speaks. He is like a person living in the shadows. Wei Sang affectionately calls him Yinbi. "First of all, let me make it clear... I'm in the gym."
Lin Yi muttered to himself.
The next moment, the clear picture in front of his eyes immediately began to fluctuate in a ripple-like manner, and he seemed to see an incandescent lamp in the dazzling white light...
He seemed to see the shadow of anti-slip floor glue appearing at the edge of his vision. At the same time, the boundless pain began to become clear...
"It's so easy to anchor back?"
"Forget it then... I won't anchor for now."
Lin Yi emptied his mind and stopped thinking about "being in the gymnasium". Gradually, he no longer felt the pain, and his fluctuating vision became clear again.
He decided to check out this perspective.
Then he saw the dense forest filled with fog again. The thick fog floated on the ground like dust, and the whole world was like a ruined fairyland with exhausted spiritual energy.
"It looks like the place I saw in my vision..."
"Could this not be Kuai Kuai's perspective, but a place where 'I' have been before...?"
The forgotten fragments of memory in my brain would occasionally appear in my mind in the form of hallucinations... just like... decompression?
Is it the same kind of memory awakening that Mr. Tian had?
So is this my perspective or...memory?
The view continues to move deeper into the forest. The fog in the deep forest becomes thicker and thicker. The surrounding trees become older and older. The thick trunks are covered with dry and old bark. The mottled light and shadow seem to take people into an old yellowed photo.
Gradually, the trees began to twist into strange shapes, and the mist was wrapped around the treetops like a ribbon. Through the mist, one could almost see the thick layer of musty fallen leaves covering the ground...
The wind from nowhere blew the ground, and beneath the fallen leaves, it seemed as if... the ground was covered with cracks, and beneath the ground, dark red lava-like material was flowing...
There is an indescribable feeling of oppression in this world. This entire forest seems to be the body hair of a giant, the earth is the cracked skin, and the mist is the steam lingering on the skin... Different from the sky blue steam of sports students and the green mist of art students, it is another kind of... gray mist!
“Gray fog…?!”
The dense forest filled with gray fog seemed to be the portal to another world at the end...
But it was not a pure door, but a white mist of light. The mist of light spread in the darkest place in the depths of the dense forest, and it was strange and bizarrely bright.
Lin Yi became more and more convinced that this was not Kuai Kuai’s perspective, but his hallucination!
However, compared to the last vision, this time the vision is obviously much clearer, and even has a lot more details.
His perspective began to approach the portal, and he knew that behind the portal was a coastline. He did not find the shadow of the art building on the coastline during his last vision, but he felt that was the art building layer!
Going through the depths of the dense forest, it seems that you will reach the layer where the art building is located.
However, just when he thought the perspective this time would be the same as last time, he saw a huge black shadow flash through the dense forest on the other side...
“Clang clang clang…”
“Clang clang clang…”
The sound of metal sheets rubbing against swords could be heard all around, and the mysterious species in the depths of the jungle seemed to be wandering around like souls.
Some strange, fragmented whispers slowly sounded from some unknown corners. They mixed with the whimpering wind, the trembling of leaves, and the rolling sounds of mud, sand, and pebbles, and gradually broke into pieces and floated out...
It was like a hoarse, hoarse call, as if to say:
【fanT...ome...fRa...forR...idEn...】
【fanTome fRa……forR……idEn……】
What a long-lost rhythm of calling...
"This is……"
"The kind of voice that a cult choir has!"
"Alien Angel... Forest of the Dead?!"
Lin Yi looked around in horror. The fog in the dim forest was almost solid, layer upon layer like thousands of mountains. And deep in the fog, in that deep place where even light and shadow could not reach, it seemed that some huge monster was lurking.
"That's not the Forest of the Dead..."
This is Lin Yi's intuition.
He felt that it seemed to be something even more terrifying. Its shape was like a moving wall. It was moving slowly on the ground. It seemed to be some kind of strange black snake...
But as far as he knew, no snake had such a huge size.
He immediately thought of the terrifying crowd of purebred nocturnal creatures that had chased Maozi and Mu Daxian. Perhaps only that kind of crowd had this kind of body shape. However, purebred nocturnal creatures were all soft and floppy in shape. How could they make the sound of metal rubbing against iron sheets?
At this moment, he heard a sound in the wind, like a melodious whistle penetrating the heavy mist, floating in from the depths of the ocean on the wind, as if it had crossed the barrier of time, drifted over thousands of mountains and rivers, and finally came here...
That is……
【I Avgru...Nnen av tKe og mr...ke jaGer for...Tapte Sjeler... fanTome! 】
【I AvgruNnen... av tKe og mrke... jaGer forTapte... Sjeler fanTome...】
As soon as this voice appeared, Lin Yi felt dizzy. He felt that the environment around him began to distort irregularly. The green forest belt became like seaweed, and the whole world seemed to sink to the bottom of the sea.
“Clang clang clang…”
“Clang clang clang…”
The huge creature slowly began to move, and the wind began to emit the harsh and clanging sound it had recently...
Countless shadows seemed to be crawling out from the depths of the dense forest and rushing towards him.
“No… We have to go back!”
Lin Yi felt that this sound was constantly stimulating him, trying to break through the limits of his cognition. However, while his mind was still clear, this "observation" had to stop here.
Just when this thought came to him and he was about to anchor himself back to the gymnasium, he suddenly found that his vision suddenly rushed towards the only stable place in the distorted environment - the portal covered with a layer of white light fog.
"What's going on?!"
In an instant, he passed through the portal.
“Hoo—Hoo—”
“Wow—wow—”
Everything was so familiar. When his vision returned, he found that he had once again come to that coastline.
The sea breeze carried a bit of salty and humid air. The black waves pushed onto the beach and then slowly retreated back into the sea. The foam on the beach broke at his feet, like bubbles spit out by a crab...
The sound in his ears became louder and louder, until it was completely drowned out by the deafening roar of the huge waves hitting the rocks.
On this desolate coastline, there was no trace of even seagulls or flying birds. He seemed to be the only life between heaven and earth.
He seemed to hear a voice coming from behind him. He wanted to look back, but a strange thought popped up in his mind.
Don't Look Back
