Chapter 425 Perception Transition

Chapter 425 Perception Transition
"Then I'll get ready." Lin Yi said as he reached into his backpack, then secretly grabbed the Ouroboros Ring from the stone box in his palm, and then picked up the book from the ground.

But this suddenly caused a problem. He needed to hold the book with one hand and the Ouroboros ring with the other, so he had no way of holding Li Huiyuan's hand.

Due to the special nature of the Ouroboros Ring, he was worried that Li Huiyuan would be contaminated just by looking at it, so he did not plan to wear it on his finger.

"Or...you grab my wrist?" Lin Yi shrank his neck a little embarrassedly. When he said this, he felt a little ashamed.

"Lin Yi, you bastard!" Li Huiyuan glared at him angrily, but still sensibly grabbed his wrist, "You owe me a hand-holding! This time I'll consider it interest!"

"Okay... whatever you say goes." Lin Yi was in the wrong first, so he naturally agreed.

Then he glanced at the watch on his wrist.

8: 38.

He secretly noted the time, then took a deep breath and actively released his perception towards the "Super Fight! The Secret Awakening of Magical Girls!" in his hand.

The light around him seemed to dim, and he soon became like a person standing on a calm black lake. Pure white ripples, based on the rhythm of his perception, spread out in all directions...

But soon he began to adjust the target of his perception, and the ripples slowly shrank as if they had life, and then flowed into the "Super Fight! The Secret Awakening of Magical Girls!" in his hand...

“Hum…”

In the nearly endless darkness, the H comic in his hand actually released a soft halo, and then countless lines representing Lin Yi's perception spread out from it.

A strange scene appeared.

When these lines spread out, they were not regular wavy ripples, but countless messy lines.

It looked like a wedding firework tube exploded in Lin Yi's hand, and countless silk threads sprayed out without any pattern or rhythm.

Countless distorted information was fed back into Lin Yi's brain along such lines, causing his whole body to twitch slightly.

"Lin Yi, are you okay? If there is a problem, forget it..." Li Huiyuan's voice sounded in his ears. The feeling of gripping on his wrist also allowed Lin Yi, who was like a small boat in the storm, to find some kind of stable anchor point.

"I... am fine..." He tried his best to respond to Li Huiyuan's question in a calm tone, and then continued to perceive.

Lin Yi gave up on searching for information in those countless lines and began to organize his thoughts.

"My guess should be correct... This information was indeed 'written in real time', but the person who wrote it used some kind of unrealistic means to write it in..."

He thought of the scene in the movie "Interstellar" where Cooper used gravitational waves to write information into the past in five-dimensional space, and used the swinging of watch hands to transmit the information. The information in H comics may not necessarily be written by some artist in high-dimensional space, but there must be some "reason".

An idea suddenly came to Lin Yi's mind.

"Is it possible... that the books on the bookshelf exist in this classroom and on other layers at the same time...?"

"The power of words penetrated the layers and was transmitted from the layer where the art building was located to the reality? Thus, the instant transmission of information between the art building and the campus was achieved?"

"From my perception, even the air waves in the 'Sanctuary' are regular... They won't be distorted and collapsed like they are now..."

"Could it be interference caused by 'Layer Transition'? Or... interference caused by some kind of energy field similar to 'Layer Transition'?"

Lin Yi doesn't have Lao Mo's ability to jump between layers, and he is not a "dream builder" in the official sense, but he can build dreams, and he has the Ouroboros ring given by the Night Watchman... He may be able to try to use dreams to allow his perception to jump over and take a peek at the "layer where the art student is writing information" in his imagination.

He then put aside all distractions and focused all his attention on one of the constantly swinging perception lines.

His thoughts and consciousness penetrated through like a quantum wave...

Countless lines of perception began to change before his eyes, turning into whirlpools one after another. Countless lines formed countless whirlpools, which looked like the "Starry Night" scene that Lao Mo had seen when he took him to the layer jump.

A sense of joy welled up in his heart, he knew that what he did was right.

When the ocean appears in front of you, the right thing to do is not to conquer the entire ocean, but to try to step on one of the waves first.

You can't even swim, and you tell me you're a pirate? Fuck you!

Now it feels like playing cat's tuck. Many times, as soon as you start a certain step of cracking, you already know that it is right to do so, and getting the result is just a matter of time.

He remained calm and continued to expand his perception. As the lines of perception continued to expand, the countless "starry nights" in the path began to move away from him. The world filled with countless brilliance began to pass by him like countless fluttering butterflies...

The structure of the world slowly unfolded before him in a strange way.

He seemed to see figures at the other end of the road...

He knew that this road was about to come to an end.

"Is that it?"

Lin Yi looked forward, golden flames surging in his eyes.

“I think that’s about it…”

"time to go……"

"time is limited……"

Lin Yi began to hear some scattered human voices, which were not very clear, and seemed to be far away and near, as if they were there and not there.

"Walk?"

"No! You can't leave yet!"

Lin Yi was a little anxious. If the people over there left, wouldn’t he have come here in vain?
As his emotions fluctuated, the originally stable world began to fluctuate and shook violently, becoming shaky.

He quickly calmed down and his perception became stable.

“Hoo—Hoo—”

A white light appeared in front of him, and Lin Yi knew that was the end.

His will kept vacillating, and finally disappeared into the white light...

As the white light faded, his perception reached the other side. Everything in front of him began to be pieced together and combined like countless three-dimensional puzzle pieces suspended in the void.

Finally, a world with dim lighting and a somewhat depressing environment appeared before his eyes.

"Library!" Lin Yi was shocked. The scene before him was a spherical ground with countless tall Doric columns standing on the ground like spires. Such columns often appeared in the architectural complexes of ancient Greek temples to support the dome of the temple.

Lin Yi exclaimed in his heart, Wow! Since entering the campus, he finally saw something related to his major.

However, the Doric columns before him seemed different from what he had learned.

What the hell are those black Doric columns?

Without time to think carefully, his attention was immediately attracted by the sculptures carved on the top of the Doric columns.

The pure white angel sculpture folded its wings, but its face was ferocious and terrifying, with sharp fangs showing at the corners of its smiling mouth...

The pitch-black demon sculpture had bat wings blooming, and its appearance was ugly but its expression was sacred, as if the flower of extreme evil was blooming under the light... and among these black and white Doric columns, there were some scattered bookshelves. When Lin Yi's perception reached the other side, it appeared next to one of the bookshelves.

On this side of the bookshelf, he saw several art students wearing dark green robes.

One of the art students seemed to be talking to "him".

But he didn't know if it was the sequelae of the consciousness jumping between layers, there were only some "buzzing" sounds in his ears, and those human voices seemed to come from extremely far away, and he couldn't hear anything clearly.

He continued to look around in a daze, trying to take in everything around him.

He soon noticed that "he" was holding a book in his hands, and the contents of the pages were exactly the same as what he had seen before.

He flipped to the cover of the book and saw the words "Super Fight! The Secret Awakening of Magical Girls!"

“It’s this book!”

"My guess turned out to be correct!" Lin Yi was ecstatic, but before he could be too happy, he felt a shaking sensation in his shoulder.

He thought it was Li Huiyuan who was shaking his body in reality, but when "he" turned around, he found that it was the art student who had been talking to him just now who was shaking him.

At the same time, there was another art student next to him, who stretched out his hands and waved them in front of him, looking very worried, and kept saying something.

"Are you... okay...?"

The distant voice, in an extremely fragmented way, reached Lin Yi's ears.

"Hey……"

"Li Zidan..."

"Li Zidan..."

"Wake up... wake up..."

He saw that there were others who looked worried and seemed to be communicating something with the people next to them.

"Go and ask the teacher..."

"Li Zidan has been corroded..."

"Go quickly..."

"quick……"

"Erosion...? Li Zidan...?" Lin Yi was slightly stunned, "Could it be...?"

He looked down and found that he was wearing a dark green art student uniform. He subconsciously reached out and touched his face. The muscle lines on his face did not belong to him at all. They were like the outlines of another person...

"This...?!" Lin Yi was shocked. "Could it be that my perception penetrated the book and then reversely invaded the mind of the art student who was writing the information? Then, using his vision, I observed everything around me?"

[Lin Yi, Lin Yi...]

[You are here... You are here...]

【I feel you……】

Just then, he heard some babbling sounds. This familiar sound made him feel a lingering sense of terror.

He looked up and suddenly realized that he had not noticed before that there were countless iron chains at the feet of the angel and devil sculptures below the tops of the Doric columns. Under each iron chain, there was a broken sculpture of a little angel or devil.

And those baby-like cries just now seemed to come from those broken little angel sculptures.

They cheered and seemed extremely happy, as if the person who had made a promise with them had finally returned.

[Don't listen to their instigation! ]

【Go! Go quickly! ! 】

【Go quickly! 】

The little devil sculpture growled, and a look of anxiety appeared on its face, which was both sacred and ugly.

【Don’t be discovered by “Him”! 】

[The time has not come yet! ]

【Walk! 】

[Go find her first! Go find her first!!]

【Go! ! 】

【Walk! 】

"What...? What does this mean?" Lin Yi was confused and had no idea what they were saying.

At this moment, he noticed an art teacher walking quickly towards him not far away.

The art teacher was not the art teacher he was familiar with, "Big Golden Retriever", or the homeroom teacher-039 "Teacher Bai Fangshuo", but a strange art teacher he had never met.

The art teacher seemed to be holding some kind of lamp in his hand. The light from the lamp made him feel some mental pressure.

"Extraordinary creation!"

Lin Yi reacted instantly, and his intuition told him that it was time to run. If he didn't run, he would most likely be hurt by the extraordinary creation in the art teacher's hands!
"The wind is blowing!"

Lin Yi growled in his heart, and as soon as he thought about it, he left the body of "Li Zidan" like taking off clothes. At the same time, the way back was opened, and the broken light and images bloomed like flower buds. The surrounding buildings began to decompose again, gradually becoming fragmented...

Lin Yi retreated very smoothly to the road he came from. Accompanied by countless butterfly-like light and shadows, the road dotted with countless whirlpools, like a starry night, reappeared in front of him.

Lin Yi began to return to his body along the induction thread.

The process was going very smoothly, but just as he was about to leave the passage full of whirlpools, a strange feeling suddenly came over him, as if he was being stared at by something.

Almost out of instinct, Lin Yi immediately looked at the countless whirlpools, and then he discovered that pairs of eyes seemed to appear in those whirlpools. Countless pairs of eyes were swirling in the whirlpools, like a weird version of the Dark Sky Wave Eye.

A series of low chants that seemed to come from the depths of the void, accompanied by painful cries, spread intermittently into the passage...

This time, Lin Yi recognized the syllables. They were "Those who follow the light in the fog will eventually become illusions" - "De som jager lyset i tke blir til slutt fantomer", and "Angels who walk towards the light will not lose their way" - "Engler Gr mOt lySet og gr ikkE p Avveie".

When these sounds appeared, the countless eyes became restless as if they were tortured, and this restlessness quickly affected the entire passage, causing it to become shaky.

Lin Yi felt that this passage was about to collapse. Some unknown existence seemed to sense that his consciousness was undergoing a layer transition!

That force began to try to destroy the entire passage and bury him in it!
