“What is this…?” Looking at the charred bones in the hands of the convenience store owner-003, he asked.

Observing closely, he seemed to see a layer of powdery particles floating on the surface of the black bones. Those particles swayed freely like groups of insects floating in the woods on a summer day. From time to time, they would form shadows of certain shapes, like distorted faces wailing constantly.

In a trance, he even felt that he could hear the roar of bones. This roar had some fundamental similarity with the uncomfortable call of the "buried body".

"This is a thorn in the heart of the burial body." The shop owner-003 stroked the texture on the surface of the bone spur, lowered his eyelids, and said slowly, "I made it specially."

"This thing can cause damage to most units whose rank is lower than that of "Zangti". The greater the rank gap, the more obvious the effect. However, it is a consumable item, so you have to use it sparingly."

Lin Yi was slightly stunned. The convenience store owner-003 must be aware of his current level. Although the convenience store owner-003 did not see him fighting the angry angel alone, the scene of him escaping from the hands of the super giant alien angel should have been seen by the convenience store owner-003 who was in the clock tower, right?

The shop owner-003 continued: "Yesterday afternoon... a group of fanatics entered the shop. One of the girls was called by the "funeral body" and became the carrier of part of its will, and then left."

"I wasn't in the store at the time. I only left a will to observe the dynamics inside the store, so there was no way to stop them."

"If I meet her, I can easily kill her, but I have a lot of things to do and I don't have time to look for her."

"You are different now. You will definitely meet her, and if you do, you will probably be in a lot of trouble."

"Uh... so you gave me this thorn and told me to wait and kill her?" Lin Yi asked, "Are you so sure that I will meet her?"

The shop owner-003 gave him a sidelong look and said, "Whether it will happen or not, you don't have any idea, do you?"

Lin Yi was speechless for a moment, and he didn't even have the courage to refute. To be honest, he also had a feeling that he would definitely encounter this...

This damn sense of fatalism.

The shop owner-003 added: "That group of fanatics have been paying attention to Huijin. With your current condition, even if you can't say you can win %, there is still a % chance."

"It doesn't matter who else is involved. If you encounter that carrier, you must first kill her."

"This thorn can save you a lot of trouble. If anyone tries to stop you, just use it as a dagger. If you get scratched by it, the angry angel will be in big trouble."

"When you face the carrier, just stab this bone spur into her body."

"Anywhere?"

"Anywhere will do, but I suggest the brain or the heart, the heart is best."

"Okay." Lin Yi reached out and took the bone spur, then stuffed it into his backpack. He had a strange feeling in his heart, as if Emperor Hun Tian had handed a treasure to his subordinates, and then told them to go to the border town of Jia Ma Empire and kill a guy named Xiao Yan for me...

Are we really the villains?
Jie Jie Jie!

Suddenly got excited!
There is a sense of anticipation with a clear purpose and the ability to destroy flowers with ruthless hands!

I, the Soul Palace Guardian Canglin, have accepted this order!

He suddenly thought of something: "By the way, does that carrier have a name? Or a name or something?"

The shop owner-003 thought for a moment and said, "It should be Zhang Lingzhen... or a name with similar pronunciation. Pay attention when you see it, so as not to be fooled."

"Zhang Lingzhen?!" Lin Yi's voice rose an octave.

Lin Yi was sobbing in his heart, what the boss said was indeed right, he didn't expect to have encountered it before? But it was more or less an accident, he ran over by himself, not someone approached him.

"Huh? Do you know him?" The store owner-003 was a little surprised.

Lin Yi quickly said: "Actually, we have already met..."

"Why didn't you kill her?" asked the convenience store owner-003.

Lin Yi's mouth twitched fiercely: "Don't even mention killing him. Why would they fight for no reason?"

"Shouldn't your ashes be attractive to her?" added the convenience store owner-003.

Lin Yi thought about it and it seemed to be quite attractive, but before Zhang Lingzhen could do anything, she was stopped by the weird art teacher and the matter was left unresolved.

He simply told what happened on the 5th floor of the teaching building, and then said: "It seems that the attraction is not enough..."

He thought about it and realized that if a fight had broken out at the beginning, he would have really killed Zhang Lingzhen.

It's a pity that they didn't fight, but then again, his original purpose was to investigate and he had no intention of killing, so as soon as the weird art teacher stopped him, he tacitly followed suit and kept a wait-and-see attitude.

The shop owner-003 denied: "No... It could only be that it has not completely integrated the will of the "Zangti", otherwise it would definitely be aggressive towards you."

"Ah..." Lin Yi said, "Will the 'burial body' crave ashes?"

"Yes." Shop owner-003 was noncommittal. "All angel sculptures can do that. Among them, the alien angels have the strongest desire for ashes."

"Since all angel sculptures crave for ashes, won't they be ignited by the ashes?" Lin Yi couldn't understand.

"Having a desire doesn't mean you will pursue it." The shop owner-003 corrected, "Just like nocturnal species pursue light but are afraid of it, the angel sculpture has the same attitude towards ashes."

"Moreover, any unit under the Supreme Judgment may be ignited by the ashes, but the alien angels are more resilient than ordinary life forms."

"For a piece like "Burial Body," you can assume that its ignition point is already very high."

"Is there still such a thing?"

"The world is so vast that there are all kinds of strange things. And not all alien angels have that kind of burning point. If it were something like the 'Forest of the Dead', it wouldn't work. And if it was the 'Snake's Nest', it would even surpass the ordinary 'Supreme Judgment'."

"Okay..." Lin Yixin wanted to learn a lot more knowledge.

And judging from the tone of the convenience store owner-003, the status of "Snake Nest" is really high. No wonder it enjoys the reputation of "Yamata no Orochi" in the myth of Xiao Ri Zi, and it directly overturned Xiao Ri Zi as soon as it appeared... It is indeed extremely powerful.

The shop owner-003 pointed at the "Zangti" and said: "Don't think that the "Zangti" is very quiet here. If something happens to me, it will explode like a bomb."

"You think the tiger is harmless, but it's just because it's in a cage."

"If it escapes from the cafeteria, even if only a tiny bit of it is left, it will be very troublesome... Most of the alien angels are not easy to deal with."

“And the “funeral body” has been eager to move to the art floor since it was formed…”

"Go to the Art Building?" Lin Yi was a little surprised. "Those nocturnal species all want to infiltrate the layer and come to the campus, why is it doing the opposite?"

"The thinking of the alien angel cannot be judged by common sense." The shop owner-003 said, "Perhaps, it longs to embrace a real "angel"..."

After handing the bone spur to Lin Yi, the store owner-003 took Lin Yi away from the location of the "burial body" and started walking towards the exit of the store one after the other.

As they were walking, Lin Yi suddenly asked, "By the way, Boss, why were all the student commemorative coins collected when I came here yesterday?"

"I didn't collect them." The canteen owner-003 said directly, "A large number of art students lost their student commemorative coins, and they cleared out the canteen early in the morning."

"So they took them all... and didn't leave even a single one?" Lin Yi asked puzzled.

"As for strategic materials... I understand why they took them all away." Shop owner-003 said, "Besides, the new batch has been put on the shelves. It was just an unfortunate time for you to come."

"But it doesn't matter. If you get the student commemorative coins, you can become an art student. If you don't get them, you can become a sports student. For your girlfriend, both paths are good." The convenience store owner-003 said.

If Li Huiyuan were here, she would definitely selectively pick out keywords, just listen to "***your little girlfriend***" and then start to touch her face and fall into a deep sleep...

Lin Yi looked at the convenience store owner-003 in some surprise. He didn't expect that the convenience store owner-003 knew this, but he quickly realized that the convenience store owner-003 had the will to stay in the convenience store as a "surveillance", so it was normal for him to know this!
Hiss… then wouldn’t he have seen the scene of me touching my buttocks? !
Lin Yi was a little embarrassed, but fortunately the shop owner-003 didn't care much. He just walked forward and said, "If you have any other questions, ask them now. You won't be able to find me after you leave this shop."

When Lin Yi heard this, his head started spinning, and he wanted to ask all the questions in his mind, but he still asked the key points that everyone knew: "The "sun" that you just mentioned that produces embers, is it the black sun over there in the art building?"

The shop owner-003 didn't want to say more, but since Lin Yi asked, he answered briefly: "Refer to the "Original Ash Apostle", it's just a projection."

"Then...what about the 'sun' on campus?"

The shop owner-003 paused for a moment, then smiled mysteriously and strangely, which frightened Lin Yi: "You have a good understanding... Next question."

"Is this... tacit consent?" Lin Yi was also confused, but he did not continue to ask this question. Instead, he asked, "Are you all arranged by the authorities? Is the entire campus... just a huge internment camp?"

An indescribable strange color flashed across the gem-like eyes of the canteen owner-003. He suddenly stared at Lin Yi without saying a word, as if he wanted to see something from his face. After seeing that Lin Yi had no extra expression, his frown relaxed a little: "You are right... The entire campus is a huge shelter."

"To be more precise, it's a shackle."

Hearing this, Lin Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief for some reason. The look in the canteen owner 003's eyes was too cold and even a little vicious, as if this campus was used to shelter him, and he wanted to kill him to silence him after discovering the truth.

The shop owner-003 said slowly: "The 'first apostles' locked the 'root' in the deepest part of all layers, banished from time and space... Then after layer after layer of blockade, they finally built this school in a place that connects with reality."

"The whole school is made up of multiple complex anchors that are anchored to each other..."

“Experience students anchor the surface of the school…”

"The school staff anchors the basic framework of the campus. The chefs deliver meals not just for the sake of delivering meals, but also need to check the street lights along the way, high-level sculptures, etc.... The blue chefs are responsible for following the security guards to complete the inspection and marking, and the black chefs are responsible for tracking and marking the "abnormal units" to eliminate them at specific locations."

"The Sports Department is responsible for resisting the pressure coming from the Art Building..."

"Security is responsible for clearing any 'abnormalities' that affect the stability of the anchor point..."

"And I... am responsible for cleaning up all the tail ends. Of course, I suffered some troubles in the search for that idiot some time ago."

"'Trickster'?" Lin Yi was slightly stunned.

"It's that jerk called the 'Principal'... He left without saying a word." The shop owner-003 was furious when he mentioned the 'Principal', but his face, which looked like Aizen's, showed more restraint than dissatisfaction. "If he doesn't come back, the burden of the campus will fall on my shoulders..."

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Lin Yi always felt that the shop owner-003 seemed to be somewhat resistant to the position of principal...

Hey, wait...

It sounds like "store owner" can be transformed into... "principal"?
At least it seems so in terms of identity?
So if Lao Mo becomes a castrated version of the "convenience store owner", then the "convenience store owner" can become the "principal"?

Even a castrated principal.

If we think about it from the perspective of conspiracy theory, the disappearance of the principal...could it be a conspiracy planned by the store owner-003 to gain power?

He always felt that the store owner-003 had a certain elusive depth and mystery. That faint smile that seemed to be there and not there was like a sharp blade coated in syrup...

The shop owner-003 didn't know that Lin Yi had thought so much. He rubbed his forehead and said, "The principal is not here, and I am under a lot of pressure..."

Lin Yi licked his lips and asked, "What does it mean that the principal went out to sea? Did he enter that black sea?"

The shop owner-003 nodded: "It means exactly what it says. Not long ago, he set out from the Art Building and entered the sea alone... just like the "original apostles" did before."

"Has the principal reached that level?" Lin Yi exclaimed.

"I don't know." Shop owner-003 shook his head. "Maybe it's not there yet, but it shouldn't be far away... That idiot is a bit of a jerk, but he wouldn't do anything without any confidence. But he was really a jerk. He said he wanted to discuss something with me, but he went out to sea without saying a word."

“…It’s a rip-off.”
