Chapter 455 "Store Owner-003"

In a trance, Lin Yi seemed to be able to feel some cold breath whistling past his arm. The cold breath made his hair stand on end and his soul tremble.

There seemed to be some strange plants growing around the pile of corpses. Their roots were deeply embedded in the corpses, absorbing nutrients. The leaves were a sickly purple color, emitting a faint light, as if they were some extremely evil flowers, or strange crops that grew directly from the pile of corpses.

The other end of the wriggling body seemed to extend to the edge of the deep abyss deep inside the store, and finally disappeared into the mist until it could no longer be detected by the naked eye or perception.

Lin Yi saw that the huge pile of corpses seemed to expand and contract as if breathing. The friction and collision of flesh and blood made the sticky liquid tremble in the air like highly viscous snot. A series of creepy whispers floated from the pile of corpses to Lin Yi's ears, but this time, it was a call of another obscure syllable...

【…store stjerner…】

【store stjerner……】

He felt a strong calling, a calling that made him want to throw himself into the arms of the pile of corpses and become a part of it.

But his will soon prevailed, and he rejected the call violently...

Of course, the main reason is that the pile of corpses is too incongruous.

"I just came here in a flash... Am I that fast? Or did I lose my soul and enter my own world?"

Lin Yi thought of this and glanced at his watch.

11: 26.

Time is flowing, but the second hand is ticking very slowly.

"go back."

If it’s “Minecraft”, you’ll know after trying it.

As soon as he thought about it, the surrounding environment really began to distort.

Then, his vision returned to its original position.

"It really is 'My World'."

Lin Yi shook his head slightly and decided to move on and look for the owner of the convenience store.

But at this moment, a cold voice with a hint of fatigue suddenly came from the flowing mist behind him.

"Hey...you're here."

"This voice...?" Lin Yi's eyes lit up. This seemed to be the voice of the convenience store owner?
But he did not act rashly, just stared at the dark area where the fog was flowing.

Because the source of the sound was so evil, it actually came from the direction of the pile of corpses!
Gradually, the space in the direction of the pile of corpses began to fluctuate slightly, and a figure slowly appeared, stepping on the cold air surging in the store...

The person who came was tall and slender, like a pine tree standing alone in the cold night.

Lin Yi frowned slightly.

Then, the figure became clearer and clearer.

Wearing a neat white shirt with his sleeves slightly rolled up, revealing his strong and graceful arms...

Lin Yi frowned...

The white shirt was covered with a dark blue suit jacket, the corners of the shirt were smooth without a single wrinkle, exuding an indescribable sense of refinement...

Lin Yi's brows have begun to frown...

The newcomer finally came into the light.

He looked very young, at least, compared to the lazy and sloppy convenience store owner, this man was very young.

The lines on his face were very soft, his eyebrows were like ink paintings, and the slightly upward arc carried an innate arrogance and disdain. His narrow eyes were like deep cold pools, and his dark blue eyes were filled with a cold light, just like a deep pool.

His nose was high and his thin lips were slightly raised, forming a faint smile. This smile seemed gentle, but it made Lin Yi feel a little chilly for no reason...

He came to Lin Yi, his manners were elegant, calm and refined...

"What? You don't recognize me?" He spoke slowly, his tone cold and calm, like a super invincible villain who is in control of everything.

"Aizen Sosuke..." These were the first words that came to Lin Yi's mind.

The person in front of him was elegant, cool and calm, completely different from the image of a middle-aged man in his mind, wearing Playboy shorts and open-chested pajamas, looking lazy and decadent.

Not only is their temperament different, but their image is also completely different. This guy must be someone they "don't recognize"!
Seeing that Lin Yi was alert and did not answer at all, the visitor was not angry. He smiled and pulled the handkerchief out of his chest pocket.

At the end, there was a white acrylic sign with a pattern of thorn wreaths around it and a gold-plated number in the middle: "Store Owner-003".

"Lin Yi, let's get to know each other again..."Store Owner-003" The store owner smiled, and the more he looked at that smile, the more he looked like Aizen.

At the same time, a light golden aura suddenly rose from the store owner's body. The aura kept interweaving behind him, and finally, as if his soul had left his body, it depicted the image of a middle-aged uncle wearing a coat, a hat, barefoot in slippers, with an unshaven beard, sloppy, lazy and decadent.

It was exactly the image of the "convenience store owner" that Lin Yi had seen in the clock tower on the art building floor before.

The image spoke lazily, "Lin Yi, you're here."

After saying that, he dissipated like smoke and sank into the body of the elegant convenience store owner in front of Lin Yi - 003.

"You are really... the boss?" Lin Yi opened his mouth, still a little incredulous.

After all, the contrast is really too strong.

"Guaranteed genuine." said the shop owner-003.

Lin Yi asked: "So you have actually been in the store the whole time?"

"Of course." The shop owner-003 said, "But I was too busy. If your perception hadn't penetrated into the "burial body", I really wouldn't have reacted."

Lin Yi curled his lips: "If I just leave like this, wouldn't it be a waste of time?"

The shop owner-003 smiled mysteriously: "The shop... you can't just leave whenever you want."

"Hiss..." Lin Yi took a breath, "Is it possible to enter here but not exit? Are you planning to wait until I leave before calling me?"

"Theoretically, I should have just waited for you." The shop owner-003 said, "But I have nothing to do anyway... After all, the big guy from yesterday still needs to be dealt with."

"What big guy? The Ashbringer?"

The shop owner-003 shook his head slightly: "It's not that. You can think of it as... a trophy pulled from the "Angel". "Pulled from the "Angel"?!" Lin Yi's eyes widened, "You projected it onto the Art Building yesterday and injured the "Angel"? So awesome?!"

The shop owner-003 lowered his eyelids slightly and glanced at the secret pattern on Lin Yi's left arm that ordinary people could not observe: "Theoretically speaking, I just picked it up ready-made..."

"'02' got some stuff from the 'quartermaster' and managed to sneak attack the 'angel' when he was away, and managed to get a little bit of stuff... it can barely be considered a hair."

"Did you bring Lao Mo's heart?"

"Yes, it's here." Lin Yi took off his backpack and handed it to the store owner-003.

The store owner took the backpack, unzipped it a little, and colorful light immediately refracted out from it.

He zipped it up immediately.

"well done."

He patted Lin Yi on the shoulder.

Lin Yi quickly asked with concern: "How do you plan to save Lao Mo? Can he be 'resurrected'?"

The shop owner-003 said: "He's already dead, what's the point of talking about 'resurrection'?"

"So what do you mean by 'there is still hope'?" Lin Yi asked, "Can he recover to... the way he was last night?"

"That's about right." The store owner's answer warmed Lin Yi's heart.

"Great, I can really be 'resurrected'!"

For Lao Mo, yesterday’s state was like a resurrection!
"Don't be too happy too soon." The shop owner-003 looked at the smile on Lin Yi's face and said mercilessly, "Whether it can recover is one thing, but to what extent it can recover is another matter."

"If you want to see it, just follow me."

After the store owner-003 said this, he walked directly towards the pile of corpses without waiting for Lin Yi.

Lin Yi glanced at the time on his watch, 11:28, and then hurriedly followed.

He still has a lot of questions he wants to ask the convenience store owner-003. At the moment, the convenience store owner-003 seems to be very easy to talk to, so he naturally cannot miss this opportunity. Besides, he is also quite interested in the process of the convenience store owner-003 saving Lao Mo.

Not long after, Lin Yi arrived at the depths of the bookshelf area.

In front of him was a dark area that was not covered by the lights in the convenience store. It was as gloomy as hell.

And at the boundary of light, the hill-like pile of corpses was slowly wriggling, as if breathing.

"This is the 'burial body.' " The shop owner-003 introduced, "It is made up of the corpses of all the supernatural beings that have invaded the shop, the corpses of some supernatural beings that have endangered the safety of the campus, and some other messy things..."

"Isn't this the 'Alien Angel'?" Lin Yi reacted.

"I guess so..." said the convenience store owner-003.

Among the three archangel sculptures, the "Alien Angel" is the most special, not only because it is the most bizarre, but also because its variety range is very wide. For example, the "Forest of the Dead" and the "Snake's Nest" are "Alien Angels" of different levels, and now this "Funeral Body" is one of them.

What Lin Yi didn't expect was that the store actually housed a kind of "alien angel".

He looked at the situation at the intersection of light and shadow and asked, "Does this "burial body" have a field that can petrify living things?"

The last time he came to the store with Li Huiyuan, Li Huiyuan's feet were petrified because she stepped into the shadow area.

He never understood the reason, but later when he heard Lao Mo mention the word "field", he felt that it might be some kind of field, and Li Huiyuan accidentally stepped into it.

The store owner-003 didn't expect Lin Yi to ask this suddenly, but he still answered: "The characteristic of the "burial body" is "burial with the dead", which can absorb the extraordinary characteristics of the surrounding creatures. The process can be fast or slow, and there is no pattern."

"The chef's authority is not high enough to handle this thing, so it will be collected by the canteen and processed slowly."

Lin Yi was a little surprised: "Even the black bib chef can't do it? Then... will it be dangerous for me to get close to it?"

He wanted to say "we", but when he realized that "we" referred to him and his boss, he silently swallowed the "we".

The shop owner said, "It's not that the black chefs are not good, but they have already processed some of them, and the rest are hard bones to chew. It's too slow to let them handle it, and the cost-effectiveness is too low, so I will take them to the shop and slowly grind them out."

"As for you..." The store owner-003 glanced at him, "Even the ashes can't burn you to death. The effect of the "burial body" on you can basically be ignored."

"Oh, it seems you know everything about what happened at the door?" Lin Yi was referring to the ashes scattered at the door. "How can you be so sure that the ashes won't burn me to death?"

The shop owner-003 said: "Your body has been tempered by the Holy Temple. Even though only bones remain, they are enough to burn into ashes."

"With your will, it's only a matter of time for you to survive the entanglement of the ashes. I just didn't expect that it would take you much less time than I thought."

Lin Yi couldn't help but ask: "So that was really the test you set for me?"

He had many guesses, one of which was that it was a test, but when he did not see the store owner after the breakthrough, he dismissed this guess.

The shop owner-003 denied his guess: "I'm not that bored... It's just a small move I designed. No matter if you or that "Ashebi" bumps into it, there will be some reaction, so I can respond in time."

"But I didn't expect you to come here without making any noise."

"If it was the Ashbringer who came in, the noise would have been much louder."

Lin Yixin said you don’t know what I did…

But he understood that the convenience store owner-003 had envisioned a violent solution.

He couldn't help but narrow his eyes. In the mind of the convenience store owner-003, the "Ashebringer" possessed the ability to break through with violence.

He had tried but was simply unable to break the impasse by force, which showed that the gap between him and the "Ashebringer" was still huge.

"I was originally planning to complete some preparations at the Funeral and then come to pick you up at the door."

"But what you did exceeded my expectations. I can understand if there was no movement. Besides, you...let me put it this way, you came earlier than expected, understand?"

The shop owner-003 showed a gentle yet indifferent smile, and while speaking, he had already arrived in front of the "funeral body".

As he spoke, he prepared something on his own, then opened his backpack and took out Lao Mo's heart.

Lin Yi originally wanted to ask the convenience store owner-003 what the characteristics of the ashes were, and why there was such a big contrast before and after mastering it, but when he saw the convenience store owner-003 start to operate, he closed his mouth and observed with a serious expression.

As soon as Lao Mo's heart appeared, the entangled golden mist exuded a kind of holy and sacred breath, like a colorful bright lamp, dispelling some of the cold air around it.
