Chapter 308: Stadium Annex Dome

Chapter 308: Stadium Annex Building "Dome"

……

X023年5月9日,15:40,体育馆附属建筑「巨蛋」。

Looking from inside the dome, the entrance and exit of the emergency passage was dim, as if it were a dusty pit.

Suddenly, under the dim light, a crowd of people appeared, a mixture of sports students and students with experience, and then they surged out like water and rushed to the bottom floor of the dome.

"boom--"

Lin Yi followed the crowd out of the safe passage and suddenly felt a white flash in front of his eyes. Then his vision suddenly became clear and the internal environment of the dome was clearly displayed in front of him.

Under the dazzling LED lights, the huge circular stands wrap the entire stadium like a bowl.

The seats in the stands are arranged in a stepped manner, extending from the lowest level to the highest point. Each level is designed just right, and it seems that the audience's line of sight is taken into consideration.

All the seats in the stands are sky blue, which perfectly matches the unified color tone of the sports department.

Lin Yi soon discovered that there were other safe exits on the bottom floor of the dome.

But he clearly remembered that there was only one safety passage between the dome and the stadium, so what about the other safety passages?

Without having time to think too much, he quickly followed the crowd and ran up to the second-floor stands of the dome.

Before leaving, Lin Yi quickly observed the security passage. However, he did not see the number of the security passage, but only saw a sign marked [Safety Passage].

But just as he stepped onto a certain step of the grandstand, the hairs all over his body suddenly stood up, and the light around him suddenly became dim...

"High-level perception" is triggered, and everything around is almost "stopped in time"!
The crowds around seemed to be still at this moment!
"what happened?!"

“What’s going on!!”

Lin Yi's heart was pounding, and a strong sense of uneasiness instantly took over his heart. He looked around, but couldn't find anything that posed a threat to him!

At this moment, his eyes followed the top of the emergency passage and looked through the emergency passage. That direction... looking out, it was a location where the basketball court and the entrance of the gymnasium were connected!
With a "puff" sound, his right eye turned into a golden pupil as if it had ignited a golden flame. At the same time, his vision began to flicker rapidly.

The long-lost black-and-white exposure texture began to appear before his eyes, and everything in front of him turned into a picture under infrared perspective. The walls in front of him seemed to be non-existent, and only a simple outline of the building remained.

He saw it!

There is a new sculpture at the entrance of the gymnasium!
It was a small sculpture, short but strong, with wings behind it gathering forward like a cocoon, wrapping it up.

It stood there like a stone lion, with a glaring and furious expression frozen on its face, like a mini version of a furious King Kong.

Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat, thinking that something was not good. Unexpectedly, a sculpture of an angry angel appeared in front of the gymnasium!

Looking at the posture, it was just like a general coming to challenge the enemy at the city gate before attacking the city.

The light in front of his eyes flashed rapidly, and his field of vision began to slide along the ceiling of the safe passage at a strange speed, skipping frames, constantly approaching the angry angel!
He resisted instinctively, but the more he resisted, the more focused his vision became. Just when his vision was about to get close to the face of the angry angel, the stiff angry angel's eyes suddenly trembled slightly...

“Gurgle…”

The eyeballs trembled, as if trying hard to break free from the petrified state.

Lin Yi felt his scalp tingling, and at the same time his vision collapsed at an extremely fast speed. Before the angry angel looked at him, he distorted his own vision!

As his vision faded, he seemed to see the environment outside the gymnasium...

It was drizzling outside the gymnasium, and countless dusty substances were floating down in the air, like flowers falling in the fog.

In such a rainy day, his vision was severely obstructed and he couldn't see much outside.

Soon this sense of threat disappeared for some reason. He shook his head gently, and some noisy sounds began to appear in his ears again.

He began to walk up the stairs with the crowd and headed towards the stands on the second floor of the dome.

The crowd surged, and after reaching the second floor, they immediately dispersed like fish entering the sea. Lin Yi and Li Huiyuan also found a place with fewer people and stayed there.

The space for the stands in the dome is so huge that the first floor alone could probably hold all the teachers and students of the entire school. But now, all of them together could only occupy a corner of the second floor of the dome.

Lin Yi looked around carefully, but didn't know what to do next.

Because according to the "Gymnasium Rules", the order of things is not like this. Instead, when a problem is discovered in the gymnasium and it has started raining outside, you need to come to the stands on the second floor of the dome immediately and then listen to the arrangements of the physical education teacher. However, the physical education teacher arranged for them to come here in advance.

Then what are they doing here? Just sitting there like this?

He glanced around and observed the environment of the dome more carefully, and then he found that there were no incandescent lamps on the top of the dome, only LED lights, and the dome was open-air. Except for the area of ​​the stands, there was no obstruction above the stadium.

In other words, the rain and fog can fall from there.

In fact, this is true. Looking out from the open air of the dome, the sky is gray, as if it was covered by the smoke of the Industrial Revolution. Some materialized dust slowly fell from the sky, accompanied by some fine raindrops, and fell on the green ground.

But the amazing thing is, I don’t know what the design of the dome is, but after the rain and fog fell, it only landed on the outer edge of the green area at most, and didn’t even touch the edge of the first floor of the stands.

This place is like a roof that shelters from the rain. Rain and dew are flying outside the roof, but there is not even a drop of rain under the roof.

Around them, sports students gathered in groups of three or four, but no one knew what they were talking about.

The trainees were huddled in their chairs, still in shock, like frightened little animals drenched in the rain. They glanced around from time to time, their eyes filled with panic and fear.

They didn't seem willing to have too much communication with each other, and only a few people who seemed to have known each other from the beginning were able to get together reluctantly.

People continued to come in from the safety passage, including some sports students.

But after observing for a while, Lin Yi found that he did not see the shadows of some familiar-looking sports students such as Xu Shunkang, Lao Du, Zhang Yuansong, etc.

Lin Yi didn't see them until no one else came in from the safety passage.

Some doubts gradually arose in his mind: why did the athletes come to one part, but the other part did not?

Did he stay in the gym...to fight against the abnormal situation?
"And...wait a minute!"

Lin Yi realized another problem.

"It's fine if the other athletes didn't show up, but why didn't Mr. Tian and the others show up either?"

"Did they leave the stadium at the first opportunity, before the fog came but before the rain?"

This is the only explanation, but -

"Why isn't Liangzi here?"

Wei Liang was behind him! He left the swimming pool earlier than Wei Liang and finished his shower at the fastest speed.

In other words, he must have left the gymnasium before Wei Liang, so he should have arrived here before Wei Liang. Why was Wei Liang not among the people who came in later?

Wei Liang's timing was rather tricky. He couldn't have walked out of the gymnasium before it started to rain, so he would have come to the second floor of the dome. But he wasn't there either...

So where did he go?

Could he also be going back to defend the gymnasium?

The way of heaven is collapsing, I, Fusheng Wei Liang Tianzun, only have one sword to open the gate of heaven? ?
May God bless Wei Liang and open the gate of heaven... Lin Yi shook his head, getting rid of this absurd and unrealistic thought, and couldn't help but worry about Wei Liang's safety.

After a while, some figures appeared again in the originally quiet safety passage.

Lin Yi quickly looked over to see if Wei Liang and the others were there.

However, the person who appeared this time made his heart skip a beat.

The people who showed up this time were all athletes, but they were all injured, and not just ordinary injuries. Basically, they had physical defects that were visible to the naked eye.

They were wearing school uniforms, but some had their sleeves empty, while others had their empty trouser legs quickly tied into a knot.

They supported each other and gathered silently in a corner, forming a square formation.

Lin Yi saw Xie Huayang among them.

Xie Huayang had a broken arm and was sitting alone in silence, with some anger in his eyes that did not burst out.

After that, no one came out again.

Lin Yi glanced at his watch.

The time now is 15:58.

Normally, it was time to prepare to go to the cafeteria for dinner, but today he knew that even if this incident had not happened, he should not have gone to the cafeteria to eat.

The crisis in the cafeteria has begun to erupt, so it’s best not to go there near dark.

Thinking of this, he began to worry.

I don’t know how to get through this night.

If there are always problems, will we be stuck here until night?

Although it is still early, it is not impossible.

After Xie Huayang and other athletes took their seats, the atmosphere on the second floor of the dome became depressing.

They are students from different classes, so many experience students may have seen one or two of them, just like Lin Yi saw Xie Huayang yesterday.

But when we met again today, Xie Huayang had already lost one of his hands.

And this is not just a broken bone, it's a direct loss of an arm.

With such an injury, one would need to lie in bed for a period of time to recuperate at any time, but Xie Huayang was moving around as if nothing had happened.

There are hundreds of athletes in similar situations as him.

After looking for a while, Lin Yi withdrew his gaze somewhat unwillingly.

"What's wrong, Lin Yi?" Li Huiyuan asked with concern.

Lin Yi then told them that he didn't see Wei Liang and the others, with a somewhat lonely look in his eyes.

Li Huiyuan wanted to say something to comfort her, but Lin Yi suddenly thought of something, sighed softly, then put his backpack on the ground, calmed down, and started to work on the things he had not had time to do before.

Li Huiyuan poked her head over curiously.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yi asked.

"I'm a little curious...what's in such a big bag of yours?"

"It's nothing, actually." Lin Yi unzipped his backpack and stuffed it with water, bread, and biscuits and it appeared in front of Li Huiyuan. Li Huiyuan's face suddenly looked a little strange.

"You... prepared so much food? Did you expect that you wouldn't be able to go to the cafeteria tonight? If not... why are there shoes?!"

She had a weird look on her face. Which decent person would put a pair of sneakers in their bag?
"It's just a spare." Lin Yi didn't explain much. After searching for a while, he took out the digital camera from the inner pocket of the bag.

The digital camera was originally in his pocket, and when he was changing in the swimming pool, he moved it from his pocket to his bag.

"Is this the digital camera of so-and-so?" Li Huiyuan asked in surprise.

"It belongs to Pan Jian." Lin Yi added, "No one is cleaning it up anyway, so I just took advantage of it."

"Okay..." Li Huiyuan didn't say anything more and sat quietly aside looking around.

He put his feet together, placed the digital camera on his thighs, and then clicked into the album step by step.

The digital camera's battery is now almost full. It goes without saying that Tian Bufan replaced the battery specifically in the morning in order to watch the video.

He quickly found the most recent video, which showed a duration of 43 minutes and 08 seconds. In Tian Bufan's words, it was not that the battery could not take so many shots, but that the memory was insufficient, so the digital camera automatically stopped after only 43 minutes.

Click on the video, and the time will be displayed immediately in the upper right corner of the digital camera:

「23:59:31/7/8/X023」

Obviously, Tian Bufan took the battery problem into consideration and started shooting as close to midnight as possible.

The video started quickly. At first, everything was normal, and there was nothing wrong with the picture. But when the time reached "00:29:56", an electric current seemed to appear on the lens of the digital camera, and it flashed like a snowflake...

Then, the scene of the dormitory turning upside down began to appear in the camera.

Although he had already imagined such a picture in his mind, when he actually saw it, there were still many details that changed from his imagination.

First of all, the quilt on the cover actually completely retained the appearance of being sagged naturally due to gravity, and the shoes beside the bed also retained their original appearance, as if they were stuck to the floor, without any change at all.

It looks like everyone is obeying their own laws of gravity and everything is fine.

"What... are you looking at?" Li Huiyuan's voice was in his ear, and her words seemed to wake him up like a thunderbolt. "Why does this look so weird? It feels like two unrelated pictures are superimposed on each other?"
