Chapter 592: Chapter 269 Rage Angel

Lin Yi’s heart quivered, but he had no energy left to ridicule Liangzi’s flag-raising—he was simply too worn out...

The road ahead was truly never calm; last time, he stumbled upon a non-existent fork in the road, then got told to "crawl for me," ending up in quite the disheveled mess before finally making his way back. And this time, he’d almost not made it back at all...

He couldn’t help but wonder, if he didn’t make it back in this state, with his bodily functions still intact, would he end up a vegetable?

Thinking about it, weren’t those patients in the real world, who went mentally deranged and eventually became vegetables, actually high-sensitivity individuals who triggered some special Phantom Vision and couldn’t return their consciousness to their bodies?

He shook his head, not wanting to waste any more brain cells on this matter.

There was still a Rage Angel up ahead, and he had no idea how to deal with it...

"Hey, speaking of which... there doesn’t seem to be any notice regarding the Rage Angel on the sign in front of the gymnasium!"

Thinking it over, he understood... It was like how the Experience Student rules wouldn’t mention the Angel Sculpture.

Experience Students wouldn’t encounter the Angel Sculpture, and those who did wouldn’t live to tell the tale, so there was no need to write it down... Oh no, wait a second!!!

"Is that really it...?!"

Lin Yi reviewed the Experience Student rules in his mind...

The rule related to the Angel Sculpture appeared in the "Gymnasium Rules," which stated:

[If you see an Angel Sculpture placed on the ground by someone unknown within the gymnasium, rush to the office immediately, clutch your Student ID card, push the door open, then close your eyes and inform the Physical Education Teacher about the situation.]

[Do not ask for help from a Sports Student upon discovering the Angel Sculpture.]

"In other words, although this interpretation might seem a twist and a bit far-fetched, does it mean the only solution for Experience Students who encounter the Angel Sculpture is to seek help from the Physical Education Teacher in the gymnasium immediately?"]

"Moreover... the other rules all have obvious hints of ’being tracked,’ but when it comes to the Angel Sculpture, the guideline is just ’once you see it, immediately do this and that’..."

"It’s like it’s saying, a Rage Angel won’t even give you the chance to ’be tracked’..."

"Shit, it’s not going to attack straight away, is it?!"

Please, couldn’t you have a bit of ceremony like the Sneering Angel?

It has to be said, when Lin Yi got to this point, he felt a touch of dark humor in his own thoughts...

Soon, they arrived at the spot closer to the bushes under the sloppy sunshower.

Lin Yi’s heart leapt again.

He subconsciously hoped that the Rage Angel was just standing there, not specifically targeting him.

Just then, he suddenly heard Wei Liang up ahead exclaim, "Oh damn! What the hell is this..."

Before he finished speaking, Wei Liang seemed to step on something slippery, staggered a few times, then immediately lost his balance, tumbling down the cobblestone path towards the gymnasium...

"Old Lin, be careful—ahhhhh~~~~"

"What in the world is happening?" By the time Lin Yi turned around, Wei Liang had already ’glided’ out about ten meters, leaving Lin Yi utterly dumbfounded with an almost Godspeed force demon slip.

He quickly glanced at where he was originally standing and actually discovered a puddle of... oil.

But seriously... how could there be oil appearing out of nowhere here?!

Lin Yi was stunned for about three seconds, his mind still not catching up when his subconscious warning mechanism had already reacted—Liangzi must have triggered some kind of Crafty Tricks from his passive!

Being someone who had leveled up his Crafty Tricks to max, Wei Liang had crisis warning and reaction built into his instincts!

And at this moment, the only thing that could pose a threat to them was...

The Rage Angel!

This line of logic might seem roundabout, but Lin Yi sorted it out in just a moment of stupor, and as he did, his vision flickered violently with images—these were none other than scenes from the Green Forest Belt’s bushes that he had just passed!

In those flickering images, he saw the Rage Angel hiding behind the bushes, its hollow eyes suddenly twitching as if spasming, its stiff neck mechanically twisting slightly, its white plaster-like skin developing fine cracks from the contortion, and the white powder on its body rustling as it fell off...

And the Rage Angel’s gaze was directed exactly at his back!

Lin Yi’s scalp tingled as if struck by lightning, the hair on his body standing on end like it had been targeted by a ferocious tiger, realizing the detail he had missed!

Before the Sneering Angel initiated an attack, only the target it chose could see its presence!

And if this wasn’t a unique mechanism to the Sneering Angel but a common one to all Angel Sculptures, then when he saw the Rage Angel sculpture, the underlying logic wasn’t "He saw the Rage Angel," but rather "The Rage Angel signaled an attack to him, which he received"!

"Just like how the Sneering Angel holding the hourglass appears turned away and crouching before its attack, the Rage Angel would also appear in a similar manner before launching its actual attack!"
