Chapter 593: Chapter 269 Rage Angel_2

"As if it provided the attacked person time to respond!"

"So you’re saying Liangzi booked it because he also realized he was targeted by the Rage Angel?!"

Damn... His reaction is really like having X-ray vision and scripts, right?!

Is this even a human response?!

"I’m coming, Liangzi, wait for me!" Lin Yi sprinted out immediately, and mere seconds after his dash, a short greyish-white afterimage enveloped in blood-red steam landed with the force of a cannonball at his location.

In the tumultuous waves formed by the mixing of blood-red steam and white mist, the diminutive Rage Angel slowly rose to its feet, its hollow grey-white eyes twitching continuously like stuck pointers, then slowly fixating on Lin Yi’s retreating figure...

[...lyset...]

[lyset...]

It spread its legs apart, slightly squatted like taking a stance, the sculpted legs beneath the Hima Chun developed stone-like muscular outlines, surrounded by blood-red steam and white mist spiraling around like dual helices, while tiny pebbles at its feet rolled around non-stop, conveying a sense of surging power.

The next moment, its legs powered up, and it shot into the sky, drawing a beautiful parabola aimed at Lin Yi’s position!

As it moved, even the sunshower diverted its path, attracted by the cyclone surrounding it.

"Whew—"

Lin Yi heard the initial impact behind him, followed by successive whooshing sounds of slicing wind; no need to mention, he knew the Rage Angel had come. Under this crushing pressure, he clenched his teeth, his throat slightly rolling, heating up and beginning to emit low growls like the roar of an engine!

Just as the Rage Angel was about to hit him, a sky-blue steam suddenly burst forth from his body, his steps briefly scrambled, and then, like performing an Asura Flash Space, he flickered out to a new position!

"Whiz whiz whiz..."

Trails of afterimages seemed to appear behind him, and the Rage Angel’s landing spot was precisely on his afterimages.

"Thud!"

The Rage Angel, carrying a thick impact force, landed there, and the overwhelming power rattled the nearby Green Forest Belt.

"How terrifying that power is! Wouldn’t one be out cold if hit?"

The forceful shock traveled along the ground to Lin Yi’s feet, sending a tremor through his heart. He quickly lowered his center of gravity and rushed towards the Gymnasium along the Cobblestone Road.

He was already close to the Gymnasium, while Wei Liang was even closer to reaching it.

"The only mentioned method to handle the Angel Sculpture is the ’Gymnasium Regulations,’ but it presupposes seeing an Angel Sculpture inside the gym; my situation doesn’t meet this condition, but no matter..."

"Supply and demand can be pre-existing or created out of thin air; if I don’t meet the condition, I’ll just create the condition!"

Lin Yi had figured it out; he intended to lure the Rage Angel into the Gymnasium. While this seemed like inviting a wolf into the house, putting Sports Students at risk, it was actually the best solution under the circumstances!

Why?

Because if the Rage Angel doesn’t enter the Gymnasium, then he and the Sports Students inside would all be fine.

Suppose the Rage Angel does follow into the Gymnasium, he could then ’look’ at the Rage Angel again, deliberately fulfilling the condition of "seeing an Angel Sculpture in the Gymnasium," and immediately rush to the Sports Office to seek help from the Physical Education Teacher!

He believed in the "Gymnasium Regulations," believing that this was definitely the right move.

Was he finally inviting the wolf inside?

This is totally unimportant because to be attacked by a wolf, one must first recognize the wolf in "cognition."

"Done!"

After validating the logic inside, Lin Yi had no more concerns and directly locked his eyes on the Gymnasium, then unleashed his speed and sprinted.

As he ran with all his might, those faint sky-blue vapors floated around his body like a gentle light mist, giving him a mild affinity for everything around him. It wasn’t exactly like moving through water, but it was close.

He felt a significant increase in his speed, but didn’t know how much; he only felt that he was keeping up with Wei Liang’s silhouette at a visibly fast speed, a bizarre speed like that of the Chef in the green apron swiftly catching up to the students fleeing from the Cafeteria.

The Rage Angel, intertwined with scarlet vapor and white mist, slowly stood up with a stiff body, its shaking eyeballs "rolling" as they locked onto Lin Yi’s figure, and then it launched forward again with a greater arc, charging at Lin Yi like an intercontinental missile.

For Lin Yi at this moment, the Gymnasium was within reach, but the missile-like Rage Angel behind him followed closely like a baleful curse, imposing immense pressure on him.

But bizarrely, when the Rage Angel approached a certain position near him, its terrifying speed visibly slowed as if delayed by some unknown and invisible force, while Lin Yi’s speed did not decrease at all, escaping once more from the Rage Angel’s grasp as if trailing a series of afterimages...

However, whether what Lin Yi saw in that instant of accelerating was real or just an illusion, he couldn’t tell.

The only certainty was that as Lin Yi sprinted with all his might, he noticed subtle visual changes in his surroundings, like a Flash wrapped in Godspeed force, perceiving the world through a strange filter.

"Did I just observe the ’Layers’...?"

Lin Yi was unsure of his thought and had no intention to verify it, for he was only 50 meters away from the Gymnasium and could contemplate this issue later once he resolved the immediate crisis.

By this time, Wei Liang had already run into the Gymnasium, and it was Lin Yi’s turn next.

Just as Lin Yi was about to approach the Gymnasium, a calling voice suddenly appeared in his ear.

"Student." It sounded like someone was calling him.

His steps faltered slightly as he instinctively looked in the direction of the voice.

But there was no one there.

Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat, feeling that this was bad, as this was likely another voice he shouldn’t have heard.

And that direction, it seemed to be... a path outside the Gymnasium?

"How strange, what’s up with that road?"

Indeed, there was a path next to the main entrance of the Gymnasium, even the construction style of which almost matched that of the Gymnasium itself, but it was unclear where it led.

But from the construction trends of that path, it seemed to be some sort of... stairway?

The calling voice just now had come from the stairway on that path, as if someone was standing at a staircase corner on the outside of the Gymnasium and softly calling him.

Yet, the voice was very unfamiliar, unlike anyone he remembered, and it didn’t call his name either; it must have been just a probing call.

After enduring so much torment, Lin Yi’s ’immunity’ had grown a bit, and apart from an initial jolt, such calls no longer affected him much.

[After reaching the Gymnasium, please swipe your Student ID card through the automated lending machine at the entrance to obtain the "Gymnasium Rules," and enter through the main door, do not use any other doors or staircases.]

"Is this the ’staircase’ mentioned on the sign?" Lin Yi’s heart jumped as if something clicked with the sign.

He was still wondering about the staircase, but now it dawned on him, it was this particular staircase, but why would there be a staircase on the outside of the Gymnasium?!
