Chapter 445 No, does he really know the path of the Ash Apostle?

Chapter 445 No, does he really know the path to the "Ashes Apostle"? (New Year's Eve!)
The two of them went to Group B Class 2 together and then separated. After confirming the door number, Li Huiyuan entered the classroom, while Lin Yi came to the teacher's office "Group B Class 2" and knocked on the door.

“Knock, knock…”

"Who?"

"I'm Lin Yi, student ID number is "X0230506098"."

"Click!"

The peephole opened, and the homeroom teacher-040 glanced at him, then opened the door.

Lin Yi glanced at his watch and entered the office.

After entering, the first thing he did was to glance at the pendulum clock on the wall.

10: 20.

Then, he got straight to the point: "I discovered something."

"It just so happens that I also have something to tell you." Homeroom Teacher-040 also said.

"Let me talk first." Lin Yi thought his matter was more important. "A large number of fanatics gathered on the fifth floor of the teaching building. They have mastered the method of collecting "ashes" and seem to be exploring a way that will allow them to become "Ashes Apostles" together."

Lin Yi told the story of how the fanatic used some of his companions to attract ashes, and then burned himself and the Laughing Angel together to refine them into the "Blood Bodhi Stone Pillar".

Then he added: "And I also found something that Teacher 039 overlooked, or did not notice, that is: she investigated every group of infiltrators who entered the school, but missed a group..."

"You mean... the people who entered the school with you?!" After being reminded by Lin Yi, the homeroom teacher-040 reacted quickly.

Lin Yi nodded and said, "That's right. I thought everyone in my group was a victim, but until I saw most of the survivors on the 5th floor just now..."

"Among the people who came with me, there are quite a few who were sent by infiltrating forces to collect ashes. What a coincidence that all of them have now become fanatics..."

"I don't think this is an accident. I feel it's more like a conspiracy, so I have to tell you about this as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, Class Teacher-040 pushed her glasses up on her nose with her jade fingers and said with a smile, "I accept you as my ally."

Lin Yi couldn't help but twitch his lips: "You only acknowledge it now?"

"if not?"

"I thought you'd let it go when you were honest with me... Well, it seems like I was just wishful thinking." Lin Yi said in a mean way.

"Are you looking for death?" Class teacher-040 glared at him, "Your girlfriend is not here, do you believe I will stab you?"

Lin Yi shrugged. The homeroom teacher-040 had at least taken out the secret pattern dagger to show off before, but now he just threatened him verbally. He didn't want to pretend anymore, so he got back to the point and said, "There is a third discovery. I found the non-existent person created by Shan Nan in the abandoned classroom of Class 13 of B Rent."

Upon hearing this, Class Teacher 040's eyes suddenly lit up.

"However, when I saw it, it had already turned into something similar to the 'Apostle of Ashes'. It carried ashes, and it itself was not burned to ashes like the fanatics. Instead, it turned into a moving 'fire man'..."

"That state is very subtle, and very different from the Ashbringer I knew before, but if you say it's not the Ashbringer, then what is it?"

The head teacher 040 spoke up at this time: "It's a 'bait'."

"Huh?" This time it was Lin Yi's turn to be stunned. "'Bait', what do you mean?"

Class teacher-040 said: "After you left, Yuan Lijian came to see me very soon."

"Yeah... I know." Lin Yi saw Shan Nan as soon as he opened the door in the morning, and naturally guessed that Shan Nan had entered the office. "What did he say to you?"

Homeroom Teacher-040 said: "He told me some things, but I know he must have kept some things to himself."

"The man we met this morning, the one you met who was suspected to be the Ashbringer, was indeed his work."

"He told me that Yuan Datou was the only male in the Yuan family, but he was used as a sacrifice by an infiltrated organization and died on campus. He came in this time to obtain the power of the Ash Apostle and seek revenge on that organization."

"Everything he did was to become the Ashbringer."

When Lin Yi heard this, he was stunned.

No, he really knows how to become an "Apostle of Ashes"?
"Since Yamao knows the way to become an Ash Apostle, doesn't that mean that the infiltrated organization has indeed mastered that way?"

"Isn't that right?"

He did not raise his doubts, but just listened silently without interrupting the head teacher-040 at all.

"According to Yuan Lijian, the path to the Apostle of Ashes was actually cracked a long time ago, but that path was not advisable, so it was listed as a "taboo". He was able to know that path because of some connections."

As one of the first armed forces to enter the Black Moon Outpost, Shannan participated in some secret experiments after surviving and got to know some experimenters. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was able to obtain some information "after being denied by the authorities."

Homeroom Teacher-040 said: "If you want to become an 'Apostle of Ashes', the prerequisite is that you must make yourself a 'container'. There is actually no other way to do this. You need two characteristics. The first is 'regeneration', and the second is 'adaptation'..."

"'Regeneration' is a high-level characteristic of the blue power of the Sports Department. The extraordinary characteristics of the Sports Department give athletes the ability to constantly strengthen their bodies, as well as higher cell activity and repair capabilities."

"But 'repair' is nothing compared to 'regeneration'. Yours is 'regeneration'."

"The second type of 'adaptation'... This is a very mysterious characteristic. Even the official authorities don't have any detailed records or research on it."

"According to the records in the Codex Secrets, the original builders of the Art Building once conducted some research on the feature of 'adaptation', but there are no more detailed data records."

"According to limited records, the so-called 'adaptive' feature can enable the original owner to gain the ability to understand and transcend..."

"A conceptual-level ability..."

"Theoretically speaking, as long as you 'understand' you can 'adapt', as long as you 'adapt' you can 'master', as long as you 'master' you can 'surpass'..."

"Yuan Lijian adopted a method based on his own understanding to give himself a chance to 'adapt' to the power of ash..."

"That is to first use a 'fake body' to collect ashes, refine them and store them in your own body, then wait until the time is right to harvest the fruit, and take the collected ashes into your body in a controllable amount, so that you can use the power of the ashes little by little, and finally, refine yourself into a successful 'container'."

"Compared to the uncontrollable intake of ash, once the amount is controlled, perhaps some progress can be made."

"This is Yuan Lijian's conjecture... He has not verified it, and he has no way to verify it, so he chose to experiment on himself."

Lin Yi stroked his chin, thoughtfully.

In other words, the authorities actually knew about the Ash Apostle's path from the beginning, so is there a possibility that... they didn't infiltrate the organization at all? They are all official people, but some things can only be done by being labeled as evil organizations...

Lin Yi couldn't help but narrow his eyes. Some things cannot be said too clearly, otherwise there may be some uncontrollable effects.

Of course, Lin Yi only subconsciously thought about this darker conjecture.

The head teacher continued, "He said that after he entered the school, he spent a few days finding some equipment that was previously buried in the campus according to the map provided by the infiltration organization. Then, he used the upgrades brought by the equipment to go deep into the green forest belt and obtain enough materials and adhesives to shape the "bait."

"He told me these things in the hope that I would not hinder his plans."

"As a deal, he handed over some of the intelligence about the infiltrated organization."

"Did you agree to his deal?" Lin Yi asked.

Class teacher-040 shook his head. "Of course not. As a class teacher, I need to strictly abide by the Class Teacher Code. Once I find that his behavior has triggered the emergency response plan in the code, I will take necessary measures."

"If not... then I will leave him alone. This is the biggest concession I can make."

"But speaking of it, the Class Teacher's Guidelines are relatively flexible, but he doesn't know that."

Lin Yi wiped his sweat and said, "Does this count as... your bottom line of flexibility?"

Class teacher-040 gave him a sidelong look and curled his lips, saying, "At best, it can be considered flexible within the permitted range."

Lin Yi thought for a moment and said, "I feel like Shan Nan has more secrets than just these."

"Of course, do you think I'm that stupid?" Homeroom Teacher-040 smiled, "I didn't believe everything he said, his motives and his purpose."

Lin Yishen agreed: "But that's not what I meant. Shan Nan chose to do business with you, so he definitely won't lie to you, at least not in the general direction... and I feel like he should be selective in telling the truth."

Everything I say is true, but I only say what I can say.

This is what Lin Yi meant.

But at this point, the office suddenly became a little quiet, and Lin Yi found that the head teacher-040 was looking at him with slightly raised eyebrows.

"Uh...what's wrong?" Lin Yi asked.

The head teacher-040 stared into his eyes, with a half-smile in her beautiful eyes: "Are you like this too?"

"Huh...?!" Lin Yi was startled. "No, I didn't lie to you."

"I mean, you must be selective in telling the truth, too."

"Then I can't open my heart to you right away, right?" Lin Yi wiped a cold sweat off his forehead. Women's logic was really scary, but he didn't deny it. After all, sincerity was always the ultimate weapon.

But he quickly changed the subject: "So, the subtext of the mountain man is that he has a way to kill the "bait" directly and then pick the fruit, right?"

Designers usually design some backdoors for their products that only they know about, so that they can regain control when they lose control. Lin Yi guessed that Shan Nan might be the same.

Otherwise, with Shan Nan's castrated version of Iron Man's exoskeleton armor, he didn't know how to fight against a walking, even half-finished Ashbringer, Pyro.

After all, that guy Shannan drank a lot of water when facing the high-level fanatics and almost collapsed.

Homeroom Teacher-040 said: "He didn't tell me what it was specifically, but he is definitely capable of cleaning it up."

After receiving a positive answer, Lin Yi stopped asking about this and asked, "If it's just like this, then that thing is not worthy of being called 'bait', right? Shan Nan called it 'bait', what is he trying to lure?"

Homeroom Teacher-040 said, "Yes, he wants to kill the people who are currently planted in the school by the infiltration organization."

"Use the 'bait' to lure those people out, kill them, and then loot the ashes they have collected."

Lin Yi nodded slightly, but didn't delve into this point, because there was no point in delving into it: "Did Shan Nan mention the name of the infiltration organization?"

Lin Yi thought that "he" might know this name, or perhaps this name could evoke some memories of him.

When asked this, Homeroom Teacher 040's expression suddenly became serious. She opened her red lips and uttered a name: "God's Domain."

"'God's Realm'?!" Lin Yi pondered the name over and over again, and then felt it was very unfamiliar, and it did not evoke any memories.

"Why, do you have any impression?" asked the homeroom teacher-040.

Lin Yi said helplessly: "I have a vague impression..."

"You mean, their code sign is a hammer?"

The corners of Lin Yi's mouth twitched fiercely: "No... I mean, I have no impression. This organization sounds like a gaming guild..."

"Maybe..." said the homeroom teacher-040, "But the reputation of 'God's Domain' is still very big. The official has also had many speculations about the infiltration organization being 'God's Domain', but there is no evidence and no way to start... I thought you knew some clues, such as they are related to 'Hammer' or something like that."

Lin Yi held his forehead with his hand: "You don't know the hot topic at all..."

He found that the homeroom teacher-040 seemed to have some information gap with him, for example, he didn't know that there were courses on occult studies in the outside world, and the homeroom teacher-040 didn't know about the popular Internet memes...

But... maybe there were too many jokes, and the homeroom teacher-040 didn't react for a while.

"Hmm...is there any other information?" Lin Yi asked.

He glanced at the time.

10: 23.

If nothing happened, he would have slipped away.

Class teacher-040 said angrily: "Lin Yi, I really want to beat you up. You told me a little bit of information, but I told you for a long time, and now you still complain that the information is not equal?"

"Ah? I didn't! I was just asking!" Lin Yi shouted in protest, "If you had finished, I would have left first..."

He subconsciously wanted to point to his watch, but thinking of the special nature of the watch, he pointed to the pendulum clock on the wall and added, "It's time for dinner."

Class teacher-040 snorted through his nose: "That's it! Go away!"

"Okay~" Lin Yi suddenly spoke like a eunuch and left the teacher's office.
