Chapter 444 Return
Just as it was absorbing the ashes, on the bridge connecting teaching building B and building A, the weird art teacher returned with her fanatics.

But in this team, there are now some fanatical leaders wearing tattered cloaks.

"Your Majesty, this batch of ashes... I feel that they were collected well. Both the quality and quantity are much better than before."

The weird art teacher walked while reporting her work sincerely.

Even the fanatics who have embarked on the so-called "glorious evolution" have not given up the side of human nature that bows and scrapes to those above them.

"You've done a good job, but you still need to work harder. When things here are over, I will report it truthfully for you." The cloaked man nodded slightly, very pleased, and spoke in an official tone as soon as he opened his mouth.

The fanatical believers around also showed joy on their faces. A good harvest means a good reward. Although their companions suffered a lot of losses, these were necessary sacrifices. When they got the rewards, they would definitely thank their companions in their hearts, and then say, "Fans eat first."

After all, those companions were indeed "broken into powder and ground into silk."

"Your Excellency, look, it's right there." The weird art teacher pointed to the B corridor at the end of the corridor bridge and said with a smile, "That's where the fire man is."

"Yes, Fire Man, I saw it too." The high-ranking fanatic was about to nod, but suddenly, he paused and said in a strange voice, "Wait a minute... Fire Man?!"

"..." The weird art teacher also reacted suddenly, and the humanity that was scared out of her by Lin Yi seemed to awaken again, "No, then... what is that fire man?!"

Her eyes widened and her mouth opened so wide that Li Huiyuan's baseball bat could almost fit in.

"You ask us? We want to ask you!" another high-ranking fanatic shouted.

"Ashe of Ashes?!" the high-ranking fanatic exclaimed, but immediately realized something was wrong, "No, it's not an Ash of Ashes! Even a newly born Ash of Ashes shouldn't look like that!"

"Why are you asking so many questions? Come on, let me capture it! Then I'll interrogate it thoroughly!" The top fanatic was furious.

"Okay!" The weird art teacher's face was full of regret and anger. It was originally a good path for promotion, but suddenly a fire man appeared!
It would be fine if she could just kill him, but how come she had never known about this thing before?
Once this thing came out, not only did it put an end to her work results, it also cut her path to promotion in half!

Of course, if she had come earlier, she would have seen Lin Yi picking ashes frantically. But now, she only saw the Ash Apostle, Fire Man, and naturally put all the blame on it.

After a while...

"Hold it, I'll go get some help!"

The fanatic leader no longer had the demeanor of a master, dragging his broken body and fleeing in a panic on the corridor bridge of Building A...

The weird art teacher and some of Ren Jianxiong's smaller-level fanatics also ran away...

"We will remember your sacrifice!"

That somewhat ridiculous slogan floated over along the corridor bridge of Building A.

All the fanatics who were "ordered" to stay behind to die as the last resort had only fear in their eyes.

In front of them, the Ash Apostle, Fire Man, had just finished crushing the last Blood Bodhi stone pillar and was absorbing the last bit of ash with a look of enjoyment on his face.

Then, it slowly stood up, and cast its calm but somewhat crazy and cruel gaze on all the fanatics who were left here...

……

Lin Yi's guess was absolutely correct. The fanatics entered the green belt after leaving Teaching Building A. After entering the green belt, they had no intention of stopping, but ran non-stop until they reached the vicinity of the barren land, and then dared to stop to catch their breath.

But as soon as he stopped, Ren Jianxiong discovered the problem and screamed: "Oh no, Zhang Lingzhen is missing!"

"It's gone, so what's the fuss?" The top fanatic scolded him, "A road full of thorns always requires sacrifice!"

"But……"

"But what buts? If you want to find her, just go back by yourself. Let's keep going!" After the fanatic leader scolded, he headed towards the barren land without looking back.

Ren Jianxiong pursed his lips and hesitated for a long time, but finally gave up the idea of ​​looking for Zhang Lingzhen and quickened his pace to catch up with the crowd of fanatics.

……

In the "Forbidden Area - B-5F" of the teaching building, the Ash Apostle, Fireman, was isolated in place, his body ablaze with flames, and the scorching temperature seemed to distort even the air around him.

Around it, all the Blood Bodhi stone pillars were destroyed, with charred debris everywhere, and all the fanatics who were left behind to guard the rear were dead.

One of the wreckage was Zhang Lingzhen, whose face had been completely unrecognizable, shriveled and twisted like charcoal.

The Ash Apostle, Fireman, looked around and couldn't find any "food", so he decided to leave.

Can be sudden.

“Kacha…”

A slight sound attracted its attention.

It looked slowly and saw that a faint flame had appeared in Zhang Lingzhen's carbonized body. The flame quickly flowed along her cracked body like water flowing into a canal.

She had devoured a large number of pseudo-human corpses in the store, and then she didn’t know what happened the next night. Her entire body seemed to have been transformed into other “parts”. Now, she didn’t know if it was a coincidence or an accident, but her body began to undergo strange changes under the burning of the ashes...

As the charcoal-like skin peeled off, a brand new milky white body slowly appeared in this gloomy environment.

There were still traces of silk threads on the joints of her body, but her whole body looked like a whole.

She stumbled to her feet from the ground. Her new body was really unstable and her back looked a little hunched, like the Victoria's Secret nurse in Silent Hill.

But a faint dust-like light was surrounding her, and her aura became fierce and strange...

If Lin Yi were here, he would definitely find that Zhang Lingzhen now looks very much like him when he was beaten to the point of death by the boss and then stood up again.

"Ashebringer"

Zhang Lingzhen... to a certain extent, has touched the threshold of the "Ashes Apostle".

【"ash"……】

The eyes of the Ash Apostle, Fire Man, gradually widened, and looking at Zhang Lingzhen now, he showed a greedy and eager smile.

But what was strange was that the newborn Zhang Lingzhen on the other side had already sensed the presence of the Ash Apostle, Fire Man, even though he hadn't even stood up straight yet. He tilted his neck and looked at it.

"Hey hey hey..."

Zhang Lingzhen showed an evil smile. "It's my turn..."

……

X023年5月10日，10:16，教学楼B栋，4F。

At the handle at the end of the stairwell, the space seemed to fluctuate slightly, and the next moment, Lin Yi and Li Huiyuan walked out as if through a mirror.

As soon as he returned to the normal teaching building level, Lin Yi immediately crushed the mace-shaped stone pillar in his hand and absorbed all the ashes in it.

It was not until this moment that Li Huiyuan asked out loud the doubts in her heart: "Lin...Lin Yi, are those fanatics collecting ashes? And you just absorbed the "ashes" they collected?"

After returning to the campus, there was no need to use a substitute name, so she called Lin Yi by his name again.

She looked at Lin Yi's empty hands, with a hint of fear in her eyes, but more of it was worry and concern for Lin Yi.

Lin Yi nodded. He knew that Li Huiyuan would report the situation to the boss, so he did not hide Li Huiyuan's intention and admitted it directly.

Moreover, he also explained the principle of how the weird art teacher collected ashes.

Upon hearing this, Li Huiyuan did not pay much attention to the method of collecting the "ashes". Her mind was full of Lin Yi's questions, and the worry and fear in her eyes became even stronger.

She grabbed Lin Yi's hand and said hurriedly, "Didn't the boss say he had helped you get rid of the ashes? Why are there still some on your body?"

Lin Yi pursed his lips and said, "Something happened in the art building last night, and I... got involved again."

"But don't worry about me, it's okay..."

"Nonsense!" Li Huiyuan looked at Lin Yi angrily, "How can it be okay? I don't care, you must go to the gym with me this afternoon and let the boss help you remove the ashes again!"

"The situation is different this time." Lin Yi shook his head and said, "The ashes this time should not be eliminated, but look, I am fine too, am I not? I... have perfectly merged with the ashes, and now I can carry the ashes."

Li Huiyuan's expression changed drastically, and her voice began to tremble: "You...you became that 'Apostle of Ashes'?!"

When she was in the teacher's office, although she couldn't bear to see the closeness between homeroom teacher 040 and Lin Yi, she still pricked up her ears and listened to their entire conversation like a cat, and she also had some understanding of the Apostle of Ashes.

In addition, through the "introduction" of the weird art teacher in Class 15 of Group B, she knew that becoming an "Apostle of Ashes" meant becoming a Gu worm, and in the entire Gu basin, only one Gu worm could finally break out.

"It's okay, it's really okay." Lin Yi shook his head slightly and consoled him, "Just like you guys have mastered the blue supernatural power, I now have an additional ability to use Ashes. Although I can't use it as I wish, I can avoid being burned by its power."

"But that fanatic said that you were killing each other..." Li Huiyuan was worried.

Lin Yi continued, "They want to collectively "evolve gloriously", so they must have found some way. Besides... the Gu worms have to fight to the death in the Gu basin. If I jump out of the Gu basin, I will be fine."

"Do you mean leaving the campus?" Li Huiyuan asked. Although she really wanted Lin Yi to stay, it seemed that leaving was the best thing for Lin Yi at the moment.

Lin Yi nodded, but sighed in his heart.

He had to leave, but the real "Ashebringer" - the conceptual sculpture was still wandering around the campus. He had no idea what would happen in the days ahead.

All he can do is to sit back and watch the fire develop.

Besides, he was about to go to the cafeteria to find the canteen owner, and he wanted to get answers to many questions from the canteen owner.

But then again, the store owner wouldn't ignore him, right?

You won’t throw Lao Mo out of the store as soon as you get his heart, right?

Li Huiyuan looked at Lin Yi, not knowing what Lin Yi was thinking. She sighed and said, "Just leave..."

Lin Yi also sighed.

"Why are you sighing?" Li Huiyuan asked.

Lin Yi said in a mean way, "I just suddenly felt it was a pity. If you give me a few more minutes, I can eat all the ashes over there... and keeping that thing will only harm others. I feel like I am sacrificing myself for others."

Li Huiyuan was so angry at Lin Yi's words that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She was still worried that Lin Yi would be affected by "Ashes", but he turned around and said that he felt he could eat more...

She put her hands on her waist angrily: "You got the advantage and you're still acting cute? Do you know how worried I...my boss and I are about you? Do you believe me, I'll beat you up?"

She raised her fist as she spoke, but the slightly downward pursed corners of her mouth showed that she was not at ease at all.

Lin Yi shrank his neck. He thought he had diverted Li Huiyuan's attention a little, but he immediately realized from Li Huiyuan's micro-expression that he had failed.

Li Huiyuan's concern for him cannot be diverted with just a few words.

"I'll take care of it myself."

That was all he could say.

Li Huiyuan looked at him deeply and said in a low voice: "You better not lie to me."

The atmosphere was somewhat solemn, and Lin Yi looked at his watch guiltily.

"Oh, by the way, it's already 10:18, we can get ready to go to the cafeteria!" Lin Yi slapped his head and quickly changed the subject.

Li Huiyuan said, "Then go, but do you want to call Boss Liangliangzi?"

"Yes." Lin Yi nodded. Due to time constraints, he didn't have time to take another look at the library.

Of course, it may be difficult to observe the library from Building C of the teaching building during the day.

Of course, Lin Yi didn't plan to take that route. He just wanted to take advantage of the fluctuations in the layer to see if he could see the library.

He had always been curious about whether the clock tower-like building he had seen on campus was a library. If so, why was the library he arrived at a structure of an ivory-carved ball, but looked like a relatively normal building from the outside?

But he himself did not have such a deep obsession with the library. Right now, he should hurry up and call Wei Liang to go to the cafeteria to eat together. Of course, if he encountered fanatics such as the weird art female teacher, he must immediately inform the class teacher-040.

The good news is that these two things are happening in sync.

As soon as he came out of the stairwell, Lin Yi immediately discussed with Li Huiyuan: "Hui Huizi, I'm going to tell the teacher about the fanatics. Can you help me go to the classroom and call Liangzi to eat?"

"Okay." Li Huiyuan agreed without hesitation.
