Chapter 488: Upside-down sky, upside-down art building
On the other side, Lu Zhao was still looking at the document in his hand with great interest, as if the dim light could not affect his vision at all.

But as time went by, the playful look on Jin Jiuyao's face gradually disappeared. He jumped up from the chair and stood beside Lu Zhao, looking around vigilantly, with a gloomy light floating in his left eye, as if he had opened up some kind of warning area.

Chen Xue also seemed to have noticed something and slowly left her seat.

Her hands were still in a frame shape, gesturing and searching for something. I don't know what she saw, but a solemn look gradually appeared on her face.

Gradually, the entire classroom was shrouded in darkness, as dull as an underwater work site that had lost contact with the ship and began to sink to the bottom of the sea under the action of gravity.

“Boom—boom—”

Thunder exploded deep in the clouds, and the sound waves seemed to materialize into the shape of countless pale arms, tearing blood vessel-like cracks in the thick fog.

Lin Yi's heart trembled, as if he was summoned by something, and he subconsciously looked to the back of the bookshelf area - the classroom design of the entire teaching building is the same, so in fact, there is also a window behind the bookshelf area!
In some classrooms above the 5th floor of the teaching building, the window glass in the bookshelf area was broken, while that in Class 2, Group B was naturally intact.

But now, the thunder that tore through the sky illuminated the world in a brief white light. The sneaky figure that seemed to be wriggling darkly in the cracks of the layer was illuminated by the lightning, and a large number of hideous human figures like branch-like branches were projected on the vapor-covered window glass.

Chen Bing, who was observing the outside world by the window, seemed to see the scene outside the window at close range and was shocked.

"Ugh...!" Chen Xue groaned and staggered, holding onto the chair beside her. Her face looked very ugly, and warm blood with a smell of rust flowed out of her nose.

She quickly reached out to wipe off the blood, but with the appearance of the blood, the air around her suddenly became charming, as if shrouded by an invisible field.

"Hmph!" She shook her wrist violently, shaking off the blood like she was shaking off snot.

The blood changed rapidly in the air, and by the time it hit the ground, it had turned into a small pool of ketchup.

At this moment, the heavy rain outside the window turned into billions of silver needles, stitching the night sky torn by thunder into a dark sky again, like a huge cage connected from beginning to end.

“Boom—boom—”

“Swish, swish, swish—swish, swish—”

The thunder and rain continued, and the whole teaching building seemed like a ship trapped by a storm in a mysterious sea.

The dense fog pouring out from the green forest belt was getting thicker and thicker. In the fog, a chanting voice like a warning could be heard faintly. The voice was torn apart by the wind and rain, and only intermittent sharp noises were left here, like a tampered curse...

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, bringing with it heavy rain that hit the explosion-proof glass, like a madman climbing onto the rear window and violently banging on the glass.

"Bang bang bang!"

“Bang, bang, bang!!”

In the silent dark environment, the sounds of wind, rain and knocking continued, like a saw sawing on the top of a person's head. The students in the classroom who were originally in a daze gradually began to be unable to bear such torture, and terror welled up in the depths of their eyes.

Some of the students murmured some unclear words, slowly stood up from their seats, and staggered towards the classroom door.

"Who is...calling me...who is it..."

The students got up from their seats one after another, followed the student, and walked towards the door of the classroom, murmuring like in a dream.

"Open the door... go open the door..."

However, the students missed a step after taking a few steps and rolled down the stairs. They struggled on the ground, but their bodies seemed to have lost their sense of balance and center of gravity. They flapped their wings like a crucian carp that had come ashore, but could not make any splashes.

"Here they come...they come..."

"No, don't come over here... don't come over here..."

The remaining students who were sitting in their seats went crazy one after another, as if they had seen something crazy. Their screams of fear were no less than a strange call in the wind and rain.

"Is there something in the classroom?" Lin Yi was shocked. How come I can't see it when there is something there?

His cognitive anchor is rooted in a deeper layer. Theoretically, it is impossible for the experiencer to see something that he cannot!
He narrowed his eyes, and his eyes quietly turned golden, like the eyes of an owl in this dark environment.

"Vision Insight", open!

The pitch-black classroom began to turn into a black and white photo in his vision. However, apart from some cold air floating close to the ground, there was nothing unusual in the classroom.

"What exactly did they see? Why are they so crazy?" Lin Yi asked in a low voice.

Wei Liang said: "Those people are in the classroom, but what's the difference between them and being locked up? They sit there like wooden sticks, not reading books, not doing anything. Once the lights go out, the whole classroom is like a claustrophobic cage. People who are not mentally strong will definitely go crazy on the spot."

"What a shame! If we hold on a little longer, the lights in the classroom should be turned on."

Although he said it was a pity, Wei Liang's tone was cold, as if he did not agree with what he said.

Lin Yi was surprised and asked, "Liangzi, aren't you afraid?"

"Scared? Of course I am... uh, of course I am scared to death!" Wei Liang said quickly, "If there was no light now, you would definitely see that my legs are shaking violently. Don't be afraid of you laughing at me, but I am actually holding on to the bookshelf while chatting with you."

Lin Yi curled his lips and glanced at Wei Liang's legs with his black and white vision.

It is true that Wei Liang was holding on to the bookshelf, but his legs were not shaking at all, and his whole body was even "leaning" on the bookshelf. If you didn't know, you would think he was leaning on a bar counter to pick up girls.

"Hey, I wonder how the twins are doing now." Wei Liang smacked his lips, "Little girls are afraid of the dark, Lao Lin, what do you think, why don't we go out in the dark and save the damsel in distress?"

"You're thinking about them so much, why don't you go?" Lin Yi was speechless. Why was Liangzi always thinking about them?

Hey, that’s not right!

No, no, Lin Yi thought to himself that he was almost led astray by Liangzi.

How can I use Wei Liang’s anchor point to think about problems!

Wei Liang asked him to look at Chen Bing and Chen Xue. Could it really be because of some old-fashioned plot of a hero saving a beautiful girl?

How is that possible? It was clearly reminding him that there was something wrong with those two people!
He quickly focused his vision on them...

As the classroom was shrouded in darkness, Chen Bing, who stayed by the window, joined Lu Zhao and others.

At this time, Lu Zhao finally stopped checking the map.

In the darkness, no one knew what they were discussing, but gradually, Jin Jiuyao suddenly felt something and looked out the window.

When he saw this, even his voice began to tremble: "You, you guys look...!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and the next moment, everyone's face turned pale!
It was pitch black outside the window, and at first glance, nothing unusual could be seen. But the next moment.

"Rumble--"

Thunder tore through the sky, and the pale light exposed the entire world for a moment.

At that moment, silvery-white cracks appeared on the window.

"The window is cracked!" Chen Xue screamed in surprise.

"It's not the window that's cracked! It's... nocturnal species!" Jin Jiuyao's voice trembled, "All of them are nocturnal species!"

There was no damage to the window, but the outer wall of the teaching building was densely covered with nocturnal species. They were crowded together and almost filled the entire window. What looked like cracks in the window were just the gaps between the nocturnal species reflected in the lightning!
The amount of debris was like a mudslide, which almost suffocated anyone who faced them.

Lu Zhao's voice was extremely calm: "Don't worry, the classrooms on campus use military-grade explosion-proof glass. From a physical perspective, the abnormal creatures on campus are simply not strong enough to break in... Just take it with you and wait for the light source to arrive."

Chen Bing said coldly: "If you ask me, why don't we just take action directly?"

"Are you crazy? We have just entered the school!" Jin Jiuyao said worriedly.

Chen Xue nodded: "I agree, let's finish it early and end it early."

Lu Zhao slowly retracted his gaze from the window and said in a low voice, "You two can only be regarded as one opinion. The time is not right, so stay still for now."

"They really came here with a 'mission'." Although the distance was far, with the help of visual insight and perception, Lin Yi easily eavesdropped on their conversation.

While Lin Yi was eavesdropping on them, Jin Jiuyao's pupils shrank slightly, and then he looked towards Lin Yi's direction like lightning!

Jin Jiuyao's sudden turn around caught Lin Yi off guard and his eyes immediately met his.

Lin Yi was startled and subconsciously shrank his head.

Chen Xue was somewhat dissatisfied when she heard this, so she nudged Jin Jiuyao with her elbow: "Where's Lao Jin? Are you satisfied now? Hey, Lao Jin, why are you talking? Lao Jin?"

"Boom!"

Jin Jiuyao fell heavily to the ground.

"Lao Jin! Mr. Lu, something happened to Lao Jin!" Chen Xue and Chen Bing hurried to support Jin Jiuyao.

Lu Zhao was shocked and decisively left his seat. He slung the backpack beside his feet over his shoulder and reached into the zipper: "Be alert! Something is wrong. Protect Xiao Jin first!"

"He was fine just now!" Chen Xue said anxiously.

"His will has fallen to the lowest level!" Chen Bing gently touched Jin Jiuyao. Even at this moment, her tone was still cold.

"His perception is the sharpest among us. It's normal for him to fall off a layer, but this point is too subtle. Is there an ambush?" Lu Zhao pondered in a deep voice, thinking about many things at once. "Xiaoxue, it's your turn to observe. Let's wake up Xiaojin."

"Yeah." Chen Xue nodded slightly.

At this moment, a strange wave surged out from the unknown void, like ripples that penetrated the walls of the teaching building and spread to everyone.

Lin Yi seemed to sense something and looked towards the explosion-proof glass of the bookshelf area. Dense nocturnal species covered the entire window like a group of geckos, and it was so dark that it made it difficult to breathe.

Lin Yi's pupils trembled slightly.

"That is……?!"

His vision penetrated the cracks between the nocturnal species and saw the world shrouded in storms.

The dark sky with a faint light seemed to be distorted by an invisible and terrifying force. This distorted feeling had a strange beauty, like a cup of cappuccino slowly stirred with a glass rod.

The light permeated the cappuccino and slowly fell on the world, as beautiful as a ray of northern lights.

An upside-down castle could be vaguely seen in the light, and the sharp bell tower pierced through the clouds, like a divine sword falling from the sky!
Unlike the mysterious clock tower on campus, he recognized the clock tower this time - it was the clock tower of the Art Building!
Above the sky, the reflection of the art building appeared!

The upside-down sky, the unreal yet real reflection!

Could that dark sky be the endless black ocean in the art layer? !

The Art Building...is it a reflection of reality?
No, could it be another world where reality is reflected in the layers? !

Inspiration flashed in Lin Yi's mind, and countless thoughts surged in his mind.

Could it be that the smiling angel that descended from the crack in the sky is one of the smiling angels dancing in the art layer?

The Art Building Rules mention that exceptional weather conditions are required to travel back and forth between campuses. Could it be that during this time period, the door properties between the layers are broken, creating passages between the layers?

“Whew—Whew—Whew—”

In the violent storm, waves of leaves were raised in the green forest belt. The sound was so loud that it was difficult to tell whether they were leaves or black waves.

“Rustle… rustle…”

On the cliffs of the Art Building, countless nocturnal species emerged from the black tide and climbed along the mossy cliffs. Some of the nocturnal species that fell fell into the black ocean, while others fell into the cracks of the layers and were chewed into powder particles and some extraordinary powers. Some of the luckier ones fell from the cracks into the green forest belt as if they had passed through layers of filters...

"Those nocturnal creatures!" Lin Yi was shocked. "They are the product of the Art Floor layer, but they fell into the Real World layer! So they always want to go back?"

Is the tide of returning to the sea essentially just a "migratory" behavior imprinted in the underlying logic of nocturnal species?
Lin Yi thought of many things again. Could it be...

[In the abyss of fog and darkness, lost souls chase after phantoms. ]

He thought of this admonition. Both the alien angel "Forest of the Dead" and the nocturnal creatures kept this admonition on their lips.

Is there any such meaning?
after all……

Right, right, wait, that’s not right!

No, no... Lin Yi shook his head secretly. No matter where these nocturnal creatures came from and what their purpose was, it was undeniable that they were invaders of the art building layer and the campus layer.

In public, they are the enemy of all mankind and even all flesh-and-blood creatures in the world;

Personally, they would definitely devour Lin Yi.

So how can we use such a biological language as "reflux" to describe their behavior?
