Chapter 468 "I saw the wonders of the world!"

Chapter 468 "I saw... the wonders of the world!"

Tian Bufan said calmly: "It's usually hard to put together a model, so it's normal for yours to take a long time, isn't it?"

"That's true..." Lin Yi thought thoughtfully.

Tian Bufan said, "Before we act, I'll emphasize this one last time. You use the puppet to attract hatred over there in Building C, and I'll act according to circumstances... You can do whatever you can, but no matter what happens to the puppet, the real body should not go over there, understand?"

"This..." Lin Yi was a little puzzled, but seeing Tian Bufan's serious expression and the fact that he didn't seem to intend to explain, he nodded, "Okay, I understand..."

Tian Bufan added: "On the way there, it's best to rewrite the puppet's cognition. It's just mumbling anyway, so just make up a random name to fool it."

"Kuai Kuai, let's go."

After he finished speaking, he and Kuai Hongji stepped onto the corridor bridge leading to Building A.

Lin Yi glanced at Tian Bufan and the others, then controlled the "puppet" and stepped onto the corridor bridge leading to Building C.

In the original plan, he didn't want to go to Building C. After all, there was no puppeteer who would go to the battlefield with the "puppet". But when he was building the puppet, he found that the strength of the puppet line (perception tentacles) was really limited. In addition, he would need to let the perception cross the layers. In order to allow the "puppet" to better connect with the main body, he decided to let his human signal tower be as close to the "puppets" as possible.

Otherwise, if the "WiFi" is disconnected at the critical moment, it would be a joke.

Before leaving, he glanced at Zhao Lingxiao.

In the normal layer, Zhao Lingxiao didn't have that weird butt-sticking-out look, but was slumped on the ground in a trance, his whole body looking like it was covered with a layer of blue-gray powder.

Lin Yi sighed helplessly. Zhao Lingxiao did not listen to his advice and insisted on peeking at things he shouldn't. Now his willpower has dropped to a certain level. If he can't wake up on his own, he will be in great danger.

"Well, you're on your own." Lin Yi had no intention of rescuing Zhao Lingxiao. Although he believed that he could save him if he really wanted to, he didn't know how much energy it would take.

If the consumption is too great, it may affect the implementation of their own plans.

After all, what he will face next is the "Ashebishi - Fireman" and a large group of fanatics.

Secondly, we are all adults now and should pay the price for our actions.

It’s not that he didn’t try to persuade Zhao Lingxiao, but the other party just wouldn’t listen.

Finally, Lin Yi said "Come on" in a cheesy way and stepped onto the corridor bridge leading to Building C of the teaching building.

……

Not long after Lin Yi left, Zhao Lingxiao's body began to tremble slightly.

"Hu, hu, hu..."

She was gasping for breath, her chest heaving. She had simply recovered some strength, and without caring about anything else, she knelt on the cold ground. Relying on her earlier memory, she frantically groped among the rough bricks and stones with her hands, crawling little by little towards the place where Lin Yi had dissected the roots and constructed the puppet before.

Her palms were very strong, and soon the groping turned into friction. Her fingertips were rubbed red and even bled, but she seemed to feel no pain and continued to repeat the groping movements mechanically.

Her eyes were unfocused and her pupils were slightly dilated, as if she was being pulled by some invisible force and couldn't stop.

“Where…where…”

She murmured to herself, her voice hoarse and rapid, as if squeezed from the depths of her throat. Her lips were cracked and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, as if she was chewing something invisible.

She was getting closer and closer to where Lin Yi was originally, and the frequency of her fingers scraping back and forth was getting faster and faster.

The gaps between her nails were filled with a mixture of dust and blood, and blood was seeping out like thorns...

"It's clearly here...it's clearly here..."

There was an almost desperate persistence in her voice, as if what she had lost was the most important part of her life.

Suddenly, her fingers stopped and her fingertips touched a small piece of slightly damp ground.

"this……!"

"Here! Found it! Found it!!"

Her body suddenly stiffened, and then she lowered her head, with the tip of her nose almost touching the ground.

Her breathing became slow and deep, as if she was sniffing something, and her gray eyes narrowed slightly, and her pupils began to shrink back to normal.

Her lips opened slightly, her tongue tip gently licked her cracked lips, and then she greedily sucked in the air here.

The next moment, her eyebrows curved, as if she had captured the most pleasing smell.

“Found it…Found it…”

Her voice became low and hoarse, with a strange sense of satisfaction.

She put her face close to the ground like a dog, as if licking something, and crawled forward while licking.

At this moment, she looked like a strange reptile with a perverted dragon spine. The loose school uniform was pulled into a certain curve that fit her body because of this body posture, making her look both graceful and evil.

As Zhao Lingxiao continued to approach the construction site, she began to violently inhale the air nearby, wishing to devour everything that was left here.

Sometimes her brows were furrowed, her face showing a twisted and painful expression, and sometimes she showed an almost crazy joy.

"More... I need more..."

Finally, she touched some residue.

When the "puppet" first took human form, it gathered the dark aura under Lin Yi's guidance, and the "essence" remaining in the flesh and blood was also absorbed by the "puppet". But even so, there were still some completely useless dregs that were discarded by Lin Yi.

All of these discarded residues were turned into petrified sculpture fragments under the dim sunlight, and some dust had not yet dissipated.

This part of the dust was the dregs among the dregs, and would be annihilated by the wind, but Zhao Lingxiao caught them before they were completely dispersed...

She greedily sucked on these extraordinary substances that had almost lost their properties, and the fanaticism in her eyes was almost insane.

“Delicious… So delicious…”

Gradually, a hazy light began to float on her body, green, blue... chaotic, as if foreshadowing some strange changes in her.

Suddenly, the aura seemed to be attracted by something and began to twist into vague symbolic outlines, like some ancient totem or some strange text.

“I saw it…I saw it…!!!”

Her voice trembled wildly with excitement, and she raised her hands high, facing the dark sky.

"The secret pattern of the starry sky...!"

"Mystery... truth!"

"The real secret pattern!!!"

She seemed to have seen something, like a devout believer who had caught a glimpse of God, and her eyes became moist.

"Teacher... I finally saw... the secret of the world..." The halo on her body became extremely strong, but like fireworks, it quickly faded, and finally even the blue-gray color began to dissipate.

When all the light faded, she was as calm as a helpless girl sitting on the ground.

But her eyes returned to normal, even brighter, as if full of energy.

"I...I just...what happened?"

She looked at herself in a daze, then looked around. She still had some vague memories of Lin Yi, but those memories stopped when the darkness spread.

Next, she remembered that she was lost in the darkness, as if she had been drifting for who knows how many years, and finally saw some scattered points of light and a broken starry sky...

That starry sky seemed like a mottled corner imprinted in time and space in the ancient times, constantly refracting in unknown latitudes, and finally appearing before her eyes.

"It's Lin Yi! It's that guy!"

She remembered everything—only the memories she had left, of course.

She took a deep breath, and somehow she seemed to be able to sense the scent of ashes.

She tried hard to recall the broken starry sky and the secret patterns, and in a trance, she actually felt a familiar smell in the secret patterns.

She didn’t know if it was because she suddenly thought of Lin Yi, but she actually felt that there was an illusory human outline in the infinite darkness, constantly swinging a hammer and hammering something, and the broken sparks constantly outlined some kind of pattern in the air.

And that pattern... seemed to be a glimpse of the vast god she had seen.

“Lin Yi…”

“Lin Yi…”

She kept mumbling something, and there seemed to be a kind of fanaticism in her deep eyes behind the lenses, looming...

……

May 023, X5, 10:13, Teaching Building C, 23th floor, staircase entrance.

While crossing the corridor bridge, Lin Yi's will was completely integrated into the "puppet", honing its mobility to be almost the same as normal.

By the time the man and the puppet reached the 4th floor, there was no difference in the puppet's posture and steps.

At the stairs, Lin Yi looked at the handrail at the end of the stairs and frowned slightly.

For some reason, the closer he got to the 5th floor, the stronger the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became. He had a strange premonition that something he had not expected had happened in the area above the 5th floor of the teaching building.

"I'll leave the rest to you..." Lin Yi patted the "puppet" on the shoulder, "Go, Agui!"

Agui was the name he came up with after rewriting his understanding of "puppet".

Kui is pronounced as Gui, which is homophonic to Gui.

Agui means Agui.

Then, he replied with the will of the "puppet" in a malicious way: "Agui...let's go..."

Lin Yi (puppet Agui) walked slowly to the stairs and waited for the moment when the sun was covered by clouds. His real body then walked out of the stairwell and stood under the sun.

He felt that if he had any extraordinary qualities, he would definitely be a "superman" because he felt that he could absorb sunlight to become stronger.

He looked up at the sky, observing the movement of the clouds and the changes in light, waiting for the moment when the layers would fluctuate.

The wind was strong at high altitude, and the lead-gray clouds were very low, as if cotton wool soaked in sea water was hanging on the roof. It would have been fine if you didn't look at it, but once you did, you could not help feeling depressed.

Lin Yi walked out of the stairs and went to the corridor bridge to look at the campus.

The handrails on the covered bridge here are covered with rust, and the peeling rust glows darkly like clotted blood in the humid air.

He looked into the distance, and the cobblestone road in the campus was like a decapitated giant python lying stiffly in the fog...

There are a lot of ivy growing on the outer wall of the teaching building. When the wind blows, the leaves flutter, revealing the spider-web-covered veins on the back, like millions of capillaries in dry hands.

Lin Yi suddenly had an idea: "The path between the layers of the teaching building may have always existed, but there is a lack of a channel to open it up."

"If it's possible to block out sunlight with clouds... then perhaps there is a similar method."

If the path between the layers is like a contactor, the current will flow the moment it is connected, but when it is disconnected, there is no possibility of connection even if they are very close to each other... What is this situation?

He pondered over it, feeling like he was about to say it but couldn't.

"Oh yeah, it's the 'Gate attribute'!"

It's not about between layers, but only limited to the layers between the 4th and 5th floors of the teaching building. There is some kind of door attribute.

And when the clouds cover the sun, the door opens.

"In other words... as long as I understand the underlying principle, I will be able to open this 'door' with my own power one day!"

"By then, I'll be able to cross the layers myself!"

Lin Yi suddenly felt that this might be the principle of how nocturnal species penetrated the layer, and it was very likely that this was a very basic technique, but because he didn't know it, he couldn't use it.

The simplest way to put it is like the Pythagorean theorem. If someone tells you that three squared plus four squared equals five squared, it will be very simple for you to use it directly. But if you want to deduce it yourself, how much time will it take? Not to mention the issue of talent.

As he was thinking and pondering, he suddenly noticed a thick cloud floating over Building C of the teaching building.

His eyes fixed, and he decisively let his body be controlled by instinct, stayed where he was, and then used most of his energy to dominate Agui's body.

The time has come. Agui took a step forward, crossed the illusory barrier, and stepped onto the first flight of stairs leading to the 5th floor of the teaching building.

As soon as its right foot stepped onto the step, the sole of its foot seemed to sink into some kind of gelatinous ground. Asphalt-like mucus flowed out from the cracks in the steps, immediately wrapping around its ankle joint and quickly corroding upwards along its leg.

"what happened?!"

This sudden situation caught Lin Yi off guard. He did not expect that the layer would actually erode the "puppet".

"What about the slime?"

"There weren't these strange situations when I traveled through time last time!"

As the mucus wrapped around him, Agui's skin began to disintegrate like a wax figure under high temperature, and the vascular network beneath the skin became faintly visible.

"What a high temperature! It's so hot, it's almost as hot as lava!"

"Wait, this is... the breath of 'ashes'?!"

"These slimes... seem to be nocturnal species?!"
