Chapter 379 Lao Mo gives the light
"Eh... eh? Ah! No, that's not what I meant..." Lin Yi said quickly, "What I want to say is... do all the golden auras belong to the "Supreme Judgment" system?"
Although the Night Watchman said so, he always felt that the so-called golden aura was not that simple.
But he did not deny that he possessed golden aura and could use it to a certain extent.
After all, he could not only use the golden aura, but also steal other colors of extraordinary power from the "Feast" and condense them into golden aura to repair the city walls.
Although he still didn't know what was going on.
The night watchman immediately understood what Lin Yi meant and shook his head, saying, "Of course not. Even Mo, who can use the golden aura to a certain extent, cannot enter the "Supreme Judgment" system..."
"Because he is not alive?"
"There are many reasons, this is just one of them." said the night watchman.
Lin Yi seemed to understand. This might be similar to the green aura of the art department. Those with green aura were not necessarily art students. They could also be fanatics or nocturnal species...
"My golden aura...is it special?" Lin Yi asked.
The night watchman looked at him deeply and said, "We have the same origin, but the purity and quality of the golden aura in your body are both superior."
"How do you judge this quality?"
"You have a golden aura, but you can still laugh like an idiot. This is enough to show that your golden aura is different from others."
"I'm a little suspicious that you're calling me stupid under the guise of praising me..."
"No."
"The corners of your mouth are crooked!"
The night watchman smiled.
"You look so good like this."
Lin Yi: “Ah?”
The Night Watchman slowly turned around and looked at the Quartermaster: "Golden aura is a very high level of pollution... gold, silver, black, white, red, orange, yellow, green, blue... The higher the level, the less human it is."
"But you... your humanity is beyond pollution. I cannot understand your existence, just like a bird cannot understand an airplane."
"You must have many secrets. Perhaps the answers are hidden in your lost memories. This is why the Mage summoned you..."
Lin Yi fell silent.
The Night Watchman admired the humanoid sculpture "Quartermaster" in front of him again. Looking at the evil lines on its body that seemed to be branded with curses, his eyes became hot: "'Quartermaster'... It is composed of dozens of extraordinary creations with various characteristics. Each one needs to be verified by the 'Supreme Judgment' system before the right to use it can be obtained."
"But you said, is there a possibility that your understanding is biased? You thought these were the military supplies of the Night Watch, but in fact, these military supplies belonged to the Supreme Judgment system and the corresponding users were... the Apostles?"
Lin Yi's pupils shrank sharply: "Apostle's 'equipment'? Hiss... my Libra Cloth?"
"what?"
"Uh... nothing." Lin Yi shook his head, but he was quite shocked. He also understood why this sculpture was called "Quartermaster". In that era, if anyone wore this, wouldn't he be a quartermaster?
Mobile arsenal!
Not only is it a mobile arsenal, it can also be used if the conditions are met.
"So, when the 'Last Apostles' had a civil war, they sealed up the 'Quartermaster'?" Lin Yi seemed to have guessed something.
The Night Watchman nodded. "Otherwise, if the Mage is alone, even if she has skills that are superior to others, she will not be able to defeat so many enemies alone..."
"After that major incident, the Dream Builder and other apostles took the Quartermaster into the depths of the layer while exiling the Mage in time..."
"When the last apostle, the Astrologer, left, she told me, 'When the light shines into the abyss, the Quartermaster will return to the world'..."
"So over the countless years, I have been looking for an opportunity to bring it back."
"Especially in the last few decades, the power of the angels has grown stronger, and their penetration into the layers is far greater than before... I feel that the Art Building doesn't have much time left. Maybe in a hundred years, it will be breached."
"century"
Lin Yi subconsciously wanted to curl his lips, but he suddenly realized that for the Night Watchman, who had been watching over this world since the days of the "First Apostle", a hundred years might really be a very short period of time.
"You've found it now?"
"Yes, you should go, I'll be here later."
"Ah?" Lin Yi was startled. "Leave? Where to?"
"Of course the consciousness will return to the main body first. Now that the "quartermaster" has been found, there is no need for you to accompany me on this adventure." The night watchman said, "Your mission has been completed. Go to the clock tower and wait for my news. When I return, I will give you the "balance", and then you can return to the campus."
"You don't need to stay here. The contamination of the Quartermaster is beyond your ability to bear at present." The Night Watchman explained, "Its contamination is almost visible, but when you begin to observe the secret patterns flowing on its surface, it means that you have begun to be contaminated..."
"This kind of pollution will make you feel a strong sense of uneasiness, fear, and other negative emotions that are beyond your understanding and acceptance. This is the expulsion method set up by the "Apostle", which is why I said that you will know it as soon as you see it..."
"But I see that your mental state now seems to be okay."
Lin Yi shrank his neck when he heard this: "I have something to say... I don't know if I should say it or not?"
The night watchman was stunned when he heard this, and felt that Lin Yi might start barking like a dog, but he still asked: "What... do you want to say?"
"Is there a possibility... that I may have seen the secret pattern you mentioned a long time ago..."
"..." The night watchman silently held his forehead, "What else... just tell me all at once."
Lin Yi pursed his lips: "No more..."
"Really gone?"
“Really…right?”
"Your 'bar' is very spiritual."
Lin Yi sighed and said seriously: "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but there are many things that if you don't tell me, I won't know even if I see them..."
"And the kind of emotion you mentioned... I could actually feel it the whole time, so when I saw this sculpture, no, this "quartermaster" under the wind wave of the "Church", I didn't have too many... uh, feelings."
The night watchman was almost silenced by Lin Yigan: "You mean, you could feel the same kind of terror as the "quartermaster" the whole time?"
Lin Yi said weakly, "Some... even worse than before." The night watchman hesitated for a while, then said, "Anyway, go back to the bell tower first, and we'll talk when I come back."
"Then be careful." Lin Yi subconsciously reminded.
"Yeah." The night watchman nodded.
And then almost a minute passed like this...
"Why are you still here?"
Lin Yi said in a muffled voice: "I don't know either... I don't seem to know how to get back? I seem to be "stuck" here?"
"Ka?" The night watchman was slightly startled, and then the figure seemed to disintegrate into countless black crows and dissipate on the spot. After a few breaths, the black mist surged and turned into crows that gathered around, and the figure of the night watchman appeared again...
The night watchman said, "I'm fine, why don't you try again?"
"Well... okay." Lin Yi nodded.
The night watchman instructed: "Don't imagine the way you came here. Imagine the bell tower... Imagine the "Church". Capture the trajectory of the air wave from the distorted layers, and then trace it back."
"'Backtrack'? Oh! Let me try."
After Lin Yi finished speaking, he imagined the appearance of the clock tower in his mind.
It's magical. When the image of the clock tower appeared in Lin Yi's mind, a twisted passage filled with golden atmosphere and composed of pure white light slowly appeared in front of him, like a sky bridge across the other side, paved from a distant layer and came in front of him!
On the other side of the overpass, he saw a hazy realm, and in the center of that realm was his figure sitting cross-legged under the quantum giant bell "Sanctuary".
His mind turned, and the vision in front of him immediately became blurred. Then he went up the overpass like a slide, and flew towards his original body like a stream of light.
"Paperback boy, when you go back, help me hold on for a while, I will be back soon." The voice of the night watchman slowly sounded in Lin Yi's consciousness.
"Don't worry about anything. Just transfer your golden aura to the Holy Hall, just like when you were absorbed by Mo's extraordinary power."
"If the residual wave of the Holy Temple is exhausted, you will strike the Holy Temple for me. Just once at most... I don't need to make it loud, I just need to... make its vibration continue."
"'In a while', right..." When Lin Yi heard the first part, he agreed decisively: "I know!"
But the night watchman's words seemed increasingly wrong. Why did he have to ring the bell for "hold on for a while"? !
"Holy shit, can I really ring that thing?!"
As he was speaking, Lin Yi slapped his thigh suddenly and stood up with a "pop"!
……
X023, May 5, 10:2, Lin Yi's consciousness traced back from the layers and finally returned to his body. He slapped his thigh and stood up.
"I'm back!"
He looked down at his watch in surprise.
2: 41.
This second dream-building process took him more than ten minutes.
He looked at the Night Watchman's body and the quantum giant clock "The Temple" in front of him. From the surface, he could not see anything abnormal about the Night Watchman.
But if you sense it carefully, you will find that the Night Watchman seems to have become much slower. He still maintains the posture of hitting the "Holy Temple", but his shape seems to be solidified.
"'02' means, wait until this wave of energy is completely exhausted, and then let me take his place? If I'm lucky, his consciousness will retreat from there before the aftermath of the energy wave dissipates."
Lin Yi calmed himself down and felt a little relieved.
The night watchman has been guarding the art building for countless years, so what he says is absolutely 100% credible. If he says that he can hold out for a while at most, then he can definitely hold out for a while at most.
"When he comes back, I'll collect the balance and then go back with Lao Mo!"
Thinking of this, Lin Yi couldn't help but look towards where Lao Mo was. However, what made him sad was that most of Lao Mo's body had been destroyed!
Lao Mo was originally in front of one of the mirror-like walls of the bell tower, trying to save Mu Daxian, who was already torn into pieces but still connected by a thread. As he continued to rescue, his body was constantly being annihilated by the air waves of the "Holy Temple".
When he was building his dream, extraordinary power was constantly being annihilated from Lao Mo's body, and now Lao Mo is nothing but a wreckage!
His hands fell limply to the ground, next to him was an old kerosene lamp that emitted a faint fluorescent light. The old kerosene lamp started to work completely, but Lao Mo didn't even have the strength to lift it.
Lao Mo's other hand was raised like Erkang's emoticon, reaching into the mirror world, grabbing the countless threads in Mu Daxian's body like fishing, trying to pull him out.
"Lao Mo!" Lin Yi called out in pain, but Lao Mo seemed to be deaf and could not hear him at all.
"What is the underlying logic of that mirror-like world? How did Mu Daxian get in, and how is Lao Mo going to save him?"
Although he knew Mu Daxian from Maozi's perspective, he had never had any personal contact with Mu Daxian, so he did not have too many emotional ties with Mu Daxian. But Lao Mo was different. The two of them had been walking on the edge of a knife all this way, and there had already been some invisible ties. If he just watched Lao Mo disappear, he would not be able to bear it.
"Lao Mo! Lao Mo!"
He shouted loudly several times, and finally, Lao Mo's already somewhat distracted eyes slowly turned to Lin Yi.
"Lin..." He paused, his breath was weak, but he still changed his words, "Huh...boy..."
He exerted force with his right hand and threw the old kerosene lamp away.
The old kerosene lamp seemed to have entered an invisible passage in the air. It glided around irregularly for several times like a deflated balloon, and then landed accurately at Lin Yi's feet.
"The lamp... is already lit..."
"The effectiveness... is enough to support you to return to campus..."
"Remember... my words... when you get to the library... give up... the light... and your status as a dorm manager... and get off the elevator..."
"You can trust...the librarian..."
"But... don't accept... his invitation... to stay and become... the new librarian..."
"If you encounter...problems on the road...think more about...what I...said..."
"Old Mo! What can I do to save you?" Lin Yi was not in a hurry to pick up the old kerosene lamp. Firstly, he had to wait for the night watchman to come back, and secondly, he had to find a way to save Old Mo.
Lao Mo forced out a smile that was uglier than crying: "I knew when I came here... I was going to die... Your efforts to save me... were in vain... Don't waste your energy..."
