Chapter 1004: Chapter 468 [You Ultimately Cannot Escape...]_2

[Starting Point...]

[Lin Yi, oh Lin Yi...]

[...where do you want to go...]

[Lin Yi, oh Lin Yi...]

[...how far can you go...]

[Lin Yi, oh...Lin Yi...]

Magical voices pierce through, making one’s brain feel like it’s being stirred. Ah-Gui doesn’t actually breathe, but under Lin Yi’s influence, it still emits heavy breathing sounds.

Its heart in the chest began to beat "thump thump," with the ash flowing through its veins becoming more turbulent. The small flames seemed to ignite, starting to fan scorching fires...

"Too noisy..." Lin Yi murmured, biting on his lip, his mind was swelling unbearably.

"De som..."

He slowly spoke... _{free.webn\ove(l)(.)c(o)m}

"...jager lyset..."

" fantomer..."

He chanted obscure scales, having pressing matters, he didn’t want to be delayed here.

After he cleared his throat with the pronunciation of Cautions, he conveyed a phrase through Ah-Gui —

"Those Who Chase the Light Through the Fog End Up as Phantoms."

"De som——jager lyset——i——tåke blir til slutt—— fantomer!!!"

As soon as the caution was uttered, it was like a strong wind swept through the dust, immediately silencing the surrounding noisy magical sounds, and the distorted layer returned to normal.

Lin Yi shook (Ah-Gui’s) head like shaking an old TV without signal, then stepped forward, climbing to the 8th floor of Building C in one breath.

By the time he reached the 8th floor of Building C, the skin made from Extraordinary Material on Ah-Gui had become crystal clear and pinkish, and the fire within its veins had turned into lava-like material.

Lin Yi briefly felt Ah-Gui’s state, then walked out of the stairwell.

"Almost ready for ignition..."

He quickened his pace towards Class 18 in Group C, the predetermined spot he and Tian Bufan arranged to lure the enemy.

But upon reaching near the corridor, a strong sense of unease arose in his heart.

As though through a certain induction, he subconsciously felt a sense of surveillance as if his arrival garnered attention from some unit, seemingly located in Teaching Building B!

Anyway, he was about to unleash something big, added this wasn’t his primary form, fearlessly he gazed towards the position of Teaching Building B...

The sensory feedback from this layer contrasted vividly with that of the 4th floor and below, as in Teaching Building’s area from 4th floor downward, ordinarily, anyone’s view of the area above the 5th floor is nihility, without extraordinary weather one can’t see beyond the 5th floor.

Yet from the 5th floor and above of the Teaching Building looking downward, it’s all murky illusory scenes seen or perceived.

Further, when Lin Yi extended his perception past the hallway railing into the void, the feedback information was also a foggy environment, without even mist, the world was full of nihility and some mysterious, unknown wrinkles.

Like Void Ripples or a non-existent mysterious creature breathing, the ripples drawn out within the layer.

Only existing paths within the layer, like Corridor Bridge, could perceive other buildings.

As Lin Yi’s perception directed towards Teaching Building B, it naturally extended.

With the extension of perception, a plethora of information factors were captured, continuously bringing scenarios back in his mind akin to a Spiritual Vision, replaying certain happenings as flickering segments, unexpectedly appearing before his eyes.

In one segment, he glimpsed a lithe figure maneuvering with an inhuman gesture at an astonishing speed.

In another segment, he witnessed the "Ashen Apostle·Fireman" figure, already in a full combustion state, with a seemingly floating form akin to an elemental entity persistently releasing flames, marking hellish scorch traces across walls appeared to be its work...

Another segment showed masses of Zealots struggling within flames, their painful cries, hands clutching their bodies, fingertips buried into flesh...

"Was there a great battle over there?!"

Lin Yi felt immense shock.

"Just during a meal, Teaching Building B turned to this state?"

It was all fine before he left, yet came back after dining and it’s like this, too coincidental!

Could it really be coincidence?

Who is that figure?

Why does it feel so familiar?

Perhaps due to some subconscious desire for reverse retrospection of that surveillance feeling, he lingered here for a moment, letting perceptual tendrils frantically probe ahead.

Over recent days through active or passive grinding, his "values" had been enhanced and strengthened, now unleashing perception lacked the exhaustive demands like initially using "My World" with minimal extension.

Of course, presently not using "My World."

"My World," this computation-heavy skill, tests mental power and spirit upon utilization.

Eventually, another indistinct segment emerged before his eyes, within it, a slender figure seemingly chomping something, suddenly turned its head towards him midway through consumption.

That sense of surveillance surged the moment it glanced over, the perceptual tendrils expanded forward just in time to meet it head-on.

Upon seeing the figure, Lin Yi’s heart experienced a profound shock.

"Why is it?!"

Zhang Lingzhen!

That graceful figure was Zhang Lingzhen!

"What happened, what’s going on?!"

Merely leaving for a cafeteria run, Zhang Lingzhen turned into someone confronting Ashen Apostle·Fireman directly?

Does the enhancement scale like this?

Hey, someone broke out hacks, damn it!

But perhaps...

"Perhaps it’s not hacks, but the will of ’Burial Body’ awakened and took over her body?"

"Burial Body" can absorb ash, always wanting to break free from Convenience Store’s containment returning to Art Building, and Zhang Lingzhen after devouring part of "Burial Body" has become its shadow clone?

Lin Yi suddenly realized, Zhang Lingzhen and "Burial Body’s" relationship arguably parallels Old Mo and the cafeteria’s relation—oops no, Old Mo symbiotic with the cafeteria, digging deeper there’s substantial distinction.

Maybe, more akin to him and Ah-Gui’s connection?

Well, really, well truly!

Seems indeed this connection!

The process of Zhang Lingzhen gnawing "Burial Body’s" trunk perhaps wasn’t unintentional but purposeful, actually for amalgamating flesh with Zhang Lingzhen, transforming her into a "Puppet" it controls.

Essentially, the logic mirrors him using "Burial Body’s" root to assemble "Puppet".

Only difference, the inherent will shifted from "Burial Body" to Lin Yi.

"Damn it!" He abruptly thought of something, couldn’t help but slap his thigh, "Damn, forgot equipment!"

"Oh well, really unlucky!"

Indeed unlucky, after all, who would foresee such matters?!

Ah-Gui is a one-time consumable, that Bone Spur is nearly also a one-time consumable, Ah-Gui’s determined for instantaneous usage but Bone Spur evidently is not.

Such a destructive device, reasonably or sentimentally serves better at the primary form.

Besides, Ah-Gui’s purpose here is after igniting ash to attract anomalies throughout the School Building Area, providing Tian Bufan time for Teaching Building A exploration.

His primary aim in this instance is collective taunting, then maneuvering, not combat.
