Chapter 520: Dormitory Building? The Forest of Dead Steles!
X023年5月10日，21:03，宿舍楼区域。
“Tap tap tap tap…”
Lin Yi carried Wei Liang on his back and continued to walk forward on the smooth, flooded road. Wei Shan, who had been leading the way in front, had slowed down a bit and came behind them.
The two of them were sprinting in the rain. If you didn't look at the huge splashes of water caused by their footsteps, it would give people the illusion of a master of martial arts floating on the water using his iron legs.
"Dormitory Building-063", "Dormitory Building-064", "Dormitory Building-065"...
Lin Yi rushed past one lamp post after another without stopping, and continued to rush towards the end where the dormitory building was located along the increasing direction of the lamp posts.
And in the shadows behind Lin Yi, one after another eerily laughing angels crawled out like the undead. Their body movements were very strange, flashing like a frame-dropping animation, and every flash turned from one movement to another.
But when they completely crawled out of the shadows, they no longer made those cult puppet show-like movements. Instead, they covered their faces with their hands, which became their own unique "starting posture".
The wind and rain hit the sculptures. After being still for a while, the sculptures of the eerie laughing angels slowly became illusory. Then, they gently floated up, and then flew towards the direction where Lin Yi escaped like a plastic bag blown by the wind.
“Rustle… rustle…”
In the wind and rain, nothing should dare to compete with the Laughing Angel for food, but such a thing really appeared!
The alien angel "Forest of the Dead" is late but it's here!
In the green forest belt, the Forest of Dead Monuments was squirming and moving forward rapidly. Countless faces were rubbing against the ground frantically, while other faces began to chant waves of evil voices.
The sound came and went, seemingly far and near, as if it was a bewitching sound coming from another world, and it was spread along the way...
["I AvgruNnen... av tKe og mrke... jaGer forTapte... Sjeler fanTome"...]
【fanTome fRa forRidEn……】
["I...rke... jaGer forTapte... Sjeler fanTome"...]
【「……av tKe og mrke…… jaGer for……Sjeler fanTome」……]
The call from the Forest of Dead Steles would obviously be chopped into pieces by the hurricane, but once it spread, it seemed to be completely unaffected by the wind direction. It actually caught up with Lin Yi from behind and entangled in his ears like a devil's sound, ready to drill into his mind as soon as it got the chance.
Lin Yi ran with abandon, and the lamp posts in front of him turned into only the lamps on the posts. But no matter how fast he ran, the chilling feeling of oppression behind him would only become stronger and stronger.
That strange figure was like a ghost haunting him and he could never escape.
As he passed through the illumination range of the nearest lamppost, he glanced at the smiling angel reflected in its black and smooth surface.
The Laughing Angel had an evil smile on his ferocious face, and his hands seemed to be about to touch his body. If he had not triggered the "Asura Flash" at the critical moment, he would have been touched by the Laughing Angel.
"No!"
"Faster! Faster!!"
Lin Yi's mind was gradually occupied by this thought. His steps slowly became weak and his staggering figure seemed like he would fall at any time. However, such seemingly unstable steps allowed him to dodge a distance several times using the "Asura Flash" method when he was about to be caught up by the Laughing Angel.
But "Asura Flash" was obviously not enough, so under the stimulation of instinct, the fish-swimming movement that he had learned from the green bib chef was once again displayed.
The strange thing is that the green bib chef can only perform such skills in the shadows, and he can only perform them in the sun, but now, he can use them in abnormal weather.
Now, his speed was no slower than that of the Laughing Angel, and he had even surpassed her. Even the Laughing Angels behind him were a little stunned.
Just like that, Lin Yi kept chasing the narrow light ahead at a speed that did not belong to him, launching wave after wave of sprints.
In a trance, he saw the dormitory building standing in the depths of the rain, shrouded in endless fog, like a silent giant waiting for his arrival.
The lights were on in the dormitory building, and every floor was brightly lit, as if countless pairs of eyes were open under the rain.
That's the dormitory building. As long as... as long as we reach that place, we'll be safe!
Go! Go! Go!
Lin Yi kept roaring in his heart and kept running with Wei Liang on his back, fearing that if he stopped to rest, he would be caught up by the smiling angel behind him.
But gradually, the ground beneath his feet seemed to begin to undergo some more terrifying and strange changes, and he seemed to hear some distant calls in his ears...
The hymns of those calls are the tunes in the admonitions, and the intermittent scales make up the sentence "In the abyss of fog and darkness, lost souls chase after phantoms."
The feedback from his feet was more like stepping on some rotten meat.
"Lao Lin...Lao Lin..."
There seemed to be some kind of calling voice coming from the void. Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, and the voice disappeared immediately.
"Lao Lin...Lao Lin..."
The calling voice always came when he was not paying attention, and disappeared immediately when he noticed it.
Not important anymore!
It doesn't matter anymore!
Anyway, the dormitory building is right in front!
He kept sprinting, passing through the heavy fog, passing through layer after layer of illusory doors that seemed to be submerged by wind and rain, and finally arrived in front of the dormitory building.
However, when he pushed away the last layer of fog and saw the "dormitory building" in front of him clearly, a speechless fear finally spread in his heart.
What was in front of him was not a dormitory building at all, but... the Forest of Dead Steles!
【wei——ling——】
The creepy Mongolian throat-calling sound resounded between heaven and earth like waves of sound. The strange pronunciation, whether it was a coincidence or something else, actually sounded a bit like the two words "Wei Liang".
The size and scale of the Forest of Dead Steles that appeared in front of Lin Yi far exceeded any other Forest of Dead Steles that Lin Yi had encountered before!
It was too big. Although not as high as the 39-story dormitory building, it was still dozens of meters high, standing in front of Lin Yi like a tsunami. The golden light source that Lin Yi mistakenly thought was the dormitory light was not a light, but the eyes of every human-shaped tombstone in the forest of tombstones of the dead!
The Forest of Dead Men’s Steles was so majestic that just standing there it gave off an unprecedented strong sense of oppression that made Lin Yi feel a little breathless.
“Lao Lin…Lao Lin!!”
Beside Lin Yi, the calling voice rang again, and this time, because he stopped moving forward, the figure finally caught up with him - it was Wei Shan!
At this moment, Wei Shan was tense, with hot air coming out of his mouth and nose. At first glance, he looked like the tyrant Bartholomew Bear. "Lao Lin...咈咈咈...Lao Lin..." Wei Shan breathed out hot air, his tone a little difficult, "You run too fast, I can't stop you! I can't catch up with you!"
Lin Yi suddenly felt guilty. Only then did he understand that the intermittent calls around him at the time, in addition to the calls from the Forest of Dead Monuments and the Laughing Angel, there was also the call from Wei Shan. Unfortunately, all these calls were mixed together and he couldn't tell them apart.
"Sorry……"
“It’s okay…” Wei Shan’s eyes fell on the Forest of Dead Steles, and he said in a low voice, “These are all things I expected to experience. Damn it, I wish my baseball bat was here…”
"Baseball bat..." Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, then he summoned the secret pattern on his right palm and threw it to Wei Shan, "Is this okay?"
Wei Shan took the secret pattern without thinking, and shook it with ease. The sky blue aura then intertwined and turned into a thick baseball bat.
He swung the bat a few times to get a feel for it, then shook his head slightly: "It's a lot worse, but... barely enough."
Lin Yi lowered his voice and said, "I followed the light of the street lamp to get here. Although there is the Forest of Dead Steles in front of me, my feeling is not wrong... The dormitory building is just ahead!"
"The lamppost I just passed is 093. There are only three more lampposts to go to the dormitory!"
Wei Shan gritted his teeth and said, "Then break through!"
"I have to break through!" Lin Yi clenched his teeth, because... because the group of smiling angels that came out of his shadow were also chasing after him!
When he glanced sideways at Wei Shan, he caught a glimpse of a group of angels with strange smiles out of the corner of his eye.
After these soul-like laughing angels came around him, they immediately began to wander around him like ghosts. As they wandered, strands of extraordinary power drifted out of his body and were absorbed by the laughing angels...
Lin Yi now possesses a great deal of extraordinary power in his body, and he is also carrying ashes. So he is not afraid of being devoured by the Laughing Angel in the short term, but if there are enough cattle, the land will be plowed up sooner or later.
"Break through!" Wei Shan shouted, "As long as we get to the dormitory building, the rest will be left to me!"
"What?!" Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat.
"Let's break through first!" Wei Shan said, "It doesn't matter how you break through, as long as you can break through!"
Seeing Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, Wei Shan continued: "Mr. Tian gave me a method. Let's go through the Forest of Dead Steles first!"
When Lin Yi heard Mr. Tian, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Okay! I understand! Run!"
"Run! Lao Lin, yes, run!!" Wei Shan roared, grabbing the baseball bat in one hand and touching the claws and daggers he was equipped with with the other.
Lin Yi also grasped the few weapons he had in his hands and rushed towards the Forest of the Dead.
As he continued to get closer to the Forest of Steles, it grew higher and higher like a mountain. The human-shaped tombstones looked down at him expressionlessly like immortals and Buddhas carved on the stone walls of the mountain, as if they were looking at a ridiculous ant.
They chanted the commandments in unison, and the sound waves were like a whirlpool that constantly disturbed Lin Yi's cognition.
But this time, Lin Yi charged forward fearlessly, and when he was very close to the Forest of Dead Monuments, he suddenly threw the dagger in his hand.
However, the Forest of Dead Men, who had always been the one to take a beating, intercepted Lin Yi's dagger this time.
"What?!" Lin Yi was shocked, only to see that the Forest of Dead's Steles began to wriggle non-stop, and its mountain-like shape turned into a giant centipede, emitting a dangerous aura that made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
【「I AvgruNnen av tKe og mrke jaGer forTapte Sjeler fanTome」! 】
【「I AvgruNnen av tKe og mrke jaGer forTapte Sjeler fanTome」! ! 】
The warning sounded, and along with the constantly wriggling limbs of the Forest of Dead Steles, the whole world became demonic and evil.
Lin Yi threw away all his weapons, then reached out and touched his left arm!
When he arrived in front of the Forest of Dead Steles, the countless faces on the "mountain" turned to him in unison. Each of those identical faces had a strange smile on their face, and they sang loudly, "In the abyss of fog and darkness, lost souls chase phantoms." The twisting figures were like seaweed in the sea, or like a solemn choir, as if to bring some kind of oracle and revelation into this world...
"Open it for me!"
Lin Yi roared as he pulled out the large steel saw with secret patterns from his left arm. He clenched his hands and placed it on the neck of the human-shaped tombstone closest to him while roaring, then he sawed it down fiercely!
“Gah—”
Sawdust flying! !
The human-shaped sculpture whose neck was sawed in the Forest of Dead Monuments simply rolled its eyes!
"Rolling your eyes? So cool, huh?! Good, good, good!" Lin Yi's mouth curled up into an evil smile, and he used the saw again, directly sawing the human-shaped tombstone in half!
Just as he was about to continue cutting violently with the saw, the mountain-like huge Forest of the Dead rolled down like a wave, trying to drown him.
The human-shaped tombstones closest to him stretched out their hands one by one to grab his body!
Just as what happened when the Forest of Dead Steles attacked Lu Zhao and his four companions, the Forest of Dead Steles is not without attack power, but the threat they pose on the physical level is very limited and can be easily defended.
But the Forest of Steles of the Dead at that time and the Forest of Steles of the Dead now are of two different magnitudes.
If what attacked Lu Zhao and his men was a stream, then what Lin Yi was facing was at least a lake!
The gap in magnitude is too huge!
The human-shaped tombstone began to affect his tug of war, trying to prevent him from breaking through his defense and wanted to trap him here to death!
At the critical moment, Lin Yi suddenly discovered that the faces in the forest of tombstones seemed to give him an indescribable sense of familiarity...
Wait, familiarity?!
and many more……
The Forest of the Dead...
Alien Angel...
Size...
Snake's Nest...
hiss--
The forms of all the alien angels he had encountered flashed through his mind like slices, and at the same time, his inspiration exploded!
He suddenly understood something and thought of a lot of things at once!
