Chapter 319 “Architect”?

Chapter 319 “Architect”?

Chapter 319 “Architect”…?
Golden flames rose in his eyes, and his field of vision seemed to be magnified and zoomed in to the sculpted flesh and blood. Then he discovered that the flesh and blood that was difficult to peel off did not remain unchanged, but was being annihilated and decomposed at a subtle and slow speed.

And the "matter" formed after its annihilation is white powder particles!

Lin Yi thought of ketchup turning into sculpture fragments, and the nocturnal species would also turn into sculptures under the sunlight and then shatter into white particles like this...

His heart skipped a beat. He had been looking for differences in white powder particles made from different substances, such as whether there was some connection between the ketchup of the green bib chef and the nocturnal species, and the connection between the white powder particles and pollution.

But now he realized that he had over-complicated the problem. He only needed to draw a simple equal sign between the two without having to go through the complicated process of finding some supporting conditions.

In other words, the particles of this white powder are the "matter" that all polluters are annihilated into after their death...

The flesh and blood of any living thing that carries contamination has the potential to turn into white powder particles, and all it requires is some "catalytic" conditions.

The conditions for this kind of catalysis are sometimes very simple, requiring only excessive contamination.

And art students can actually absorb it and transform it into their own green breath!

"So this is why art students can eat tomatoes?"

Why can’t students eat tomatoes?

Because the pollution is super serious.

But art students themselves are a form of pollution, and some are even units that have already stepped out of this form, so naturally they are not afraid.

Therefore, the code of conduct for art students mentions that they can eat when necessary.

This necessary time should refer to when it is absolutely necessary to supplement a certain amount of supernatural power.

But the words between the lines of the guidelines imply that tomatoes have side effects, which is why eating too much is not allowed.

The reason why sports students can eat tomatoes is the same, and they need to report to their teacher after eating them.

It makes sense that a tomato is a heart, but it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s just a “human” heart; pseudo-humans also have hearts.

Lin Yi thought of the fake person Li Kai. The heart is usually the origin of a fake person.

Wait, where is the origin?
So the tomato is not only the heart, but also the heart that contains the origin!
"That is to say..."

Lin Yi understood.

The heart contains the origin of the polluted unit. It contains not only the extraordinary powers of the color system that can be absorbed by art students or sports students, but also extraordinary powers of other colors. It is a very complex collection of extraordinary powers.

In the final analysis, it is best for fire-type practitioners to absorb fire-type crystal cores, while water-type practitioners should focus on water-type crystal cores, and a mixed crystal core should not be absorbed unless necessary. However, it can be used in critical moments when there is no choice.

As for the consequences, that is not something to be considered at that time.

Just as Mu Daxian said, if he was given enough time to prepare, he wouldn't have to risk losing an arm and reducing his combat effectiveness by blowing up a street lamp to get a light bulb.

But at that time, what needs to be considered is "efficiency" rather than "injury".

Suddenly, the underlying logic of some rules became clear to Lin Yi, and he felt a sense of joy as if a mystery had been solved.

And he suddenly realized that while he was thinking about those things just now, his body was unconsciously absorbing the free breath in the air, green, blue, gray, gold, red... Wait, why are all these colors of breath being absorbed by him? !
"I'm not a fucking picky eater?!"

Lin Yi himself was shocked.

"Eh? That doesn't seem to be the case..."

He tried to sense himself for a while, and then he really found that as long as the breath lingering around him, it would enter his body unimpeded, but he did not absorb all of the breath. He only absorbed some of the sky blue breath and light green breath. The rest of the breath circulated in his body and then was expelled.

The situation is just like when he first absorbed the "original pollution".

Three thousand weak water, only take one scoop.

It's really a bit ungrateful.

Lin Yi felt a little heartbroken, as if he had suffered a huge loss. He then continued to absorb these extraordinary powers step by step, not thinking too much about it for the time being.

The boss standing on the protruding structure on the dome of the giant dome was also absorbing these pure extraordinary powers together with the physical education teachers. The aura they absorbed was mostly sky blue and blood red, while the old kerosene lamp in his hand was swaying the flame slowly, and at the same time absorbing all the surrounding aura indiscriminately.

As the breath was absorbed, the light in the old kerosene lamp seemed to become brighter, but it was not much brighter than the original glow.

However, if you look closely, you will find that the physical education teachers are not only absorbing the red and blue auras, but also seem to be absorbing some other auras, all kinds of auras, but not too much...

"This invasion... is unusual." Teacher Wang pondered as he looked at the various auras fluttering in the air like butterflies.

"Are you talking about 'their attack on the gymnasium' or 'the gray fog invasion itself'?" a physical education teacher nearby asked.

"Of course I'm talking about the invasion itself." Teacher Wang said seriously, "This time, they came too early."

"There have been invasions in the past that were launched before the sun went down, but never on a scale like today."

"They seem to have come prepared. There are more than thirty angry angels who have gathered to invade from the front, not to mention those who were lured and landed on the playground..."

"The furious angels on the playground..." A physical education teacher glanced at the remains of the furious angels covered with spherical eyeballs on the playground, "...sixty-six, a total of about a hundred furious angels..."

"This scale is almost catching up with the peak of previous invasions."

The invasion peaked when night fell and gray fog enveloped the entire campus.

"After the sun sets, there will probably be a stronger wave, or even more waves..."

"I have a feeling this may be the largest invasion since the founding of the school."

The physical education teachers around couldn't help but sigh: "The principal hasn't come back yet, and the canteen owner has some problems again..."

"There are only three Night Watchmen left in the entire campus who are still stable and at the top of their game."

"They are stuck too much... The three "night watchmen" can indeed guard the art building and temporarily fill in for the "principal" and "store owner", but the one who stays in the art building is under too much pressure."

"Especially this time when the gray fog invaded, there was a strange atmosphere everywhere."

"I don't know why, but this time when the gray fog invaded, I always had an ominous feeling that we would lose..."

“Too many anchors of decision-making have been lost, and the entire campus is shaky… It’s like a fortress built with building blocks, but a few key building blocks have been removed.”

As the physical education teachers were communicating with each other, they were holding old kerosene lamps and absorbing the pollution in the air. They looked like a group of people smoking and chatting before and after meals, but the information they talked about seemed to determine the fate of the entire campus.

"I got a piece of news... from the library. The authorities might send someone to stabilize the campus." "Can it be stabilized? Who can be sent to provide such a stable anchor?"

“The army again?” a physical education teacher sneered. “Do you remember what happened last time? They sent armed forces to find the source of the pollution despite our opposition... It’s ridiculous. They really think that they can use the stolen rhino horns to stab the rhinoceros.”

"We always use our limited knowledge to measure things beyond our knowledge, and it is inevitable that losses will occur. But... that was not 'last time'. That was in the early days of the school. Teacher Chu, you have no sense of time at all?"

"It doesn't matter. Who cares?" Teacher Chu shrugged. "We are all old men who are about to die. We should have died a long time ago. It's only at this time that everyone will get together."

"So you don't care at all who the authorities send?"

"It's useless to show concern. I'm too lazy to read all the evasive and clichéd speeches. They always say 'we will consider your request carefully, but you know that the process is not like this' blah blah blah... That's why I hate chatting with those official people the most. Sometimes I really want to throw them into the crowd of nocturnal creatures and let them feel what it means to be 'tossed in the crowd'."

"Huh... After all these years, are they still like this?"

"which aspect?"

“Official language.”

“Old traditional things will only become more mellow as they age.”

"You get dumber as you get older, that's true."

"Let's talk about something useful..." The boss frowned, "Who did the authorities send?"

For some reason, the boss had subconsciously leaned this person towards Lin Yi.

During this period of time, perhaps the only special person was Lin Yi.

"I heard that he is... someone who can stabilize the campus. Hmm, let's put it this way, maybe... an 'architect'?"

"The kind that move bricks?" A physical education teacher couldn't help laughing, "Architecture...are there really still people studying that kind of thing now?"

"Architect? Another architect?" Another physical education teacher hesitated, "I told you last time, but then there was no news. Now it's coming again? Could it be fake news?"

The boss's heart moved slightly...

architecture?
This……

Could it be Lin Yi?
"And then?" she asked, "How are you going to stabilize the campus this time?"

"I don't know either... This profession is too old. Nowadays, people like new and novel things, such as astrology and secret symbols... It's really rare to find people working in architecture."

"But I heard that this is just a last-ditch effort. No one thinks it will work this time. It will probably just be cannon fodder."

"It's just cannon fodder... The ship is about to fall apart, and you throw someone to tighten the screws, what's the point? The most you can do is hold the wrench tightly and hold on until the principal comes back to steer the ship."

The boss pondered and said, "Did they really say that?"

"Yes... I also heard that there seem to be several factions on the official side, but the majority of them are those who advocate keeping the campus to prevent the spread of pollution, and those who advocate giving up the campus and retreating to the core of the alliance... After all, everyone knows the situation in S City."

"However, those who advocate giving up the idea do not dare to act openly at the moment..."

"They want the 'resources' on campus, but they also want to give up the campus...are they planning to drain the pond to catch all the fish?"

"Most likely, after all, we are gradually losing control here..."

“The original architects constructed the logic of the campus, but the authorities have not yet been able to fully grasp this logic…Things that are not in their control are destined to be abandoned when necessary.”

"But... taking action against the school? It's a good idea, but do they have the ability to do so? Just relying on rhino horns?"

"What scares rhinos is not their horns. Why don't they understand this simple truth?"

"Let's not discuss their affairs... let's just take care of ourselves."

"Let alone the renunciation faction, the ones who originally made contact with us were the preservation faction."

"Essentially, they just want to delay the collapse of the campus a little bit, at least to relieve some of the pressure on the Night Watch... As you know, the Night Watch's strength is also used to fight against the threat from the sea, so every bit they can save is a bit they can save."

"So... when will the principal come back? If the principal doesn't come back, won't that person be nailed there like a pillar?"

The boss was silent.

If all this is true, and that person is Lin Yi, the building will collapse, and Lin Yi is the substitute pillar. He will be safe as long as he can hold on until the real pillar comes back, but if he can't hold on, he will be crushed to death...

"Boss, why are you suddenly concerned about this? Don't you always think that those people are unreliable?"

"Boss means that distant water cannot quench a nearby fire. Please don't misinterpret it."

The old man said: "You all don't care, so I should care. Isn't it normal? Regardless of whether the news is true or false, at least you should know it, right? Teacher Zhang, next time there is such news, you must convey it as soon as possible."

"No! That's not right, boss! That's not right, everyone!" Suddenly a physical education teacher slapped his head, as if he realized something. "Everyone, don't listen to Lao Zhang's nonsense. What he said was reported from the library several months ago... He fell asleep after delivering the message last time, and didn't wake up until today. There's a time difference between him and us!"

"Oh my god, so this news is not true?"

"Ah? Time difference?" Teacher Zhang was stunned for a moment, "What year is it today?"

"It's May 5th!"

"What year?"

"Year X023."

"..."

"It's okay..." Teacher Zhang patted his chest, "I only slept for a few months..."

"Fuck you! You didn't check the time after you woke up? Why are you spreading old news here?" A speechless PE teacher couldn't help but said, "Why don't you just talk about some old stories!"

All the physical education teachers were silent, and the eldest brother almost couldn't catch his breath.

"Alright, alright...it was just a false alarm, so forget about it."

"However, although they were supposed to be sent here several months ago, since there has been no sign of this kind of person appearing until now, could it be that they were delayed by something?"

"You know, this matter might have been stuck at some point in the process? For example, the Geshe faction secretly interfered?"
