Chapter 454: Chapter 201 The So-Called "Doomsday

"In the year X023, May 7th, 20:23..."

Cool and sparse moonlight struggled to pierce through heavy clouds, casting its light upon the walls of the Teaching Building. Endless dense mist roiled outside the building, and the silent air was filled with an oppressive atmosphere.

Outside the Corridor Bridge of Building D, a team advanced slowly under the dim yellow light. Everyone looked solemn with ordered steps; their clear footsteps seemed capable of piercing the whining winds within the Green Forest Belt. Light and shadow intermingled ceaselessly in the mist, as if hiding some grotesque, clawing figures that followed the team slowly, slowly sinking into the distance of the Corridor Bridge...

As the last chef entered the Corridor Bridge, the originally gentle and bright yellow light began to fade, the burnt-yellow, paper-like scene healing like a wound, as if snow was covering it again, slowly mending and turning back into a pristine white wall.

It was like someone had drawn with invisible ink on paper and, as the light source approached, hidden patterns emerged, then sank back under as the light source moved away, like submerging in water.

"I... I just now?!" Mao Feiyang clutched his chest, panting heavily, "I almost felt like I walked with the Security Guard!"

"I felt like I didn’t want to go, but my body seemed out of control!"

"It’s a good thing you held onto me..."

Mu Daxian released Mao Feiyang, leaning against the Corridor Bridge and taking a deep breath, "That’s normal, very few people can refuse a Security Guard’s ’request’..."

He paused, then added, "Only those legendary warriors, breathtaking and epoch-transcending, can accomplish that."

Are you really complimenting yourself... Mao Feiyang couldn’t help but complain internally.

"Hey, wait! They, just now..." Mao Feiyang suddenly realized something, thought for a while about how to express it, then suddenly slapped his head and astonishingly said, "Were they just using a wall-hack?!"

Mu Daxian: "..."

"If you want to put it that way, it’s not incorrect." Mu Daxian began to move, "Let’s go, that place has old kerosene lamps and the scent of Security Guards, which is very safe for us."

The two quickly arrived at Teaching Building C, where Mao Feiyang curiously examined the wall in front of him, recalling the scene he had just witnessed and tentatively reaching out to touch it.

"Just looking is fine, don’t think too much... Ah damn!" Seeing Mao Feiyang’s curiosity, Mu Daxian didn’t stop him but quickly gave some precautions to avoid any missteps.

But unexpectedly, Mao Feiyang, as if drawn by something, unconsciously reacted. By the time he realized, it was too late. He had touched some kind of limit and saw... Corridor Bridge Building D, and at the end of the bridge — that wildly abstract styled building!

It stood where the moonlight met the grey mist, somewhat resembling the old Bell Tower and Art Building, like a corner of a church from the Industrial Revolution ensnared in smoke and fog, visually creating an intense, dream-like and unreal sensation.

"That is...?!" Mao Feiyang murmured to himself, his eyes suddenly blazing with zeal as his body gently trembled, as if he had witnessed an exhilarating scene.

In that instant, the scene Mao Feiyang saw made Lin Yi empathize intensely, flashing rapidly before his eyes like skipping frames...

The scene was a world of only black and white, like pulling out a film from an old camera and exposing it under the sun to create that kind of black-and-white quality...

A chill rushed through Lin Yi’s forehead as he suddenly realized, wasn’t the Phantom Vision he experienced with Li Huiyuan in the Teaching Building on May 8th the same scene Maozi was seeing now?

In that instant, time seemed to rush past Lin Yi. He saw those movie-like scenes of "static and dynamic overlay," and everything around Maozi whooshed past as if fast-forwarded, then his own self from the afternoon of May 8th appeared like a ghostly afterimage, slowly approaching and quietly overlapping with Mao Feiyang on this May 7th...

"The scene I saw... was it really what Maozi saw a day earlier?!"

A chilling sensation immediately climbed Lin Yi’s spine. Only at this moment did he realize that the Contamination from Maozi was pervasive, not necessarily requiring a swap of visions to occur. Was what he saw through "My Vision" to some extent the same as what Maozi had seen previously at different times in the same space?

"Could that also be a part of the supernatural trait brought by Maozi’s Contamination?"

While Lin Yi was still in shock, even more terrifying changes transmitted from Mao Feiyang’s perspective.

The Corridor Bridge in front of Mao Feiyang began to twist...

In painting or photography, every image has a vanishing point that converges all perspectives to one extreme. Originally, the vanishing point of Corridor Bridge Building D was at the end of the area, but at that moment, the vanishing point shattered as if it had fallen apart.

The scene before them was like the reality arbitrarily tampered within Doctor Strange’s Mirror Dimension, but unlike that geometrically precise space, what Lin Yi and Mao Feiyang saw was far more fragmented, almost no straight lines to be found in the entire space!
