Chapter 670: Chapter 306 Beneath the Angel Sculpture..._2

The Physical Education Teacher upon hearing this, silently walked over to the hourglass at the side, lifted it and with a slight effort, crushed the outer shell of the hourglass.

As the petrified shell of the hourglass shattered and peeled off, an old kerosene lamp without luster appeared before them.

"We’ve reclaimed another lamp..."

The Physical Education Teacher picked up all three of the old kerosene lamps.

"I’ll take this lamp back to the office and pass it to the Security Guard on duty tonight," the Physical Education Teacher weighed the last dysfunctional old kerosene lamp, then handed one to Boss, "You’ll take him to the basement?"

Boss took the lamp.

"Then make sure you clean up the fragments of the Angel Sculpture; it’s quite a delicacy for those Green hats."

"Mhm." The Physical Education Teacher nodded.

Just then, the entrance of the Gymnasium suddenly became noisy again. The students who had been evacuating the Gymnasium were returning the same way, flooding back inside.

Boss frowned slightly, "As expected, it’s started to rain."

"They’ve overwritten the weather; it seems they’ve moved up the Invasion," the muscles on the cheeks of the Physical Education Teacher tensed as he spoke with a deep voice, "The scope is big... I wonder if there have been any issues at the Art Building and the Cafeteria."

"Stick to the plan, I’ll go arrange the others."

"Got it." Boss grabbed ’Dormitory Supervisor-28-X0230503021’ like grabbing a handbag, carrying him, whose life or death was uncertain.

Before departing, she turned to look at Li Huiyiuan and Lin Yi, instructing, "Head to the second floor of the Giant Dome to take shelter immediately. If you encounter any unexpected situations, you can act on your instincts, but don’t leave the second floor of the Giant Dome."

"Huihuizi... remember the contents of the ’Sports Student Code.’"

Li Huiyuan nodded.

Lin Yi really wanted to remind her about the promised ’Sports Student Code’ book, but he had some sense to know this wasn’t the time and so obediently closed his mouth.

In fact, he didn’t even have enough time to process everything that had happened in the Gymnasium, let alone think about the ’Sports Student Code.’

"Eh! Where’s Liangzi?!" Lin Yi suddenly slapped his forehead, realizing he had gotten separated from Wei Liang as soon as they left the Swimming Hall!

"There’s no time to think about that, if Liang Liangzi Boss is in the Gymnasium, he’ll definitely appear on the second floor of the Giant Dome too, let’s hurry!" Li Huiyuan urged.

"No time to delay, let’s go!" Lin Yi nodded.

In the span of that short moment, the other Experience Students had already swarmed into the only ’Safety Passage’ inside the Gymnasium, under the guidance of the Physical Education Teacher and Sports Students.

"There are too many people, Lin Yi, hold my hand, let’s not get separated," Li Huiyuan said seriously, then extended her hand.

"Okay." Lin Yi grabbed Li Huiyuan’s hand without hesitation and merged into the crowd, heading toward the Safety Passage.

The noise of the crowd was deafening, with words of anxiety, worry, and panic permeating the air - those negative emotions of fear seemed to swarm above the crowd like mosquitoes, making Lin Yi acutely aware of them as if he could feel it on his skin.

Flickering fragments appeared before his eyes, in the dim corners of the Gymnasium, he seemed to see the shadows of some chefs in green aprons.

And within this crowded stream of people, he sensed the presence of some Pseudo-Humans.

This sensation was so sudden, like an electric current fleeting through his body, and yet he felt it distinctly.

His heart suddenly felt apprehensive; he finally understood what Boss meant by adapting on the fly – even if they made it to the second floor of the Giant Dome, they still have to face the threat from the Pseudo-Humans.

And the good news is... it wasn’t just the Experience Students heading to the second floor of the Giant Dome, but also some Sports Students.

Some of the Sports Students were directing the flow of people.

"Don’t push; there’s enough time!"

"Line up, line up!"

"Hey you, the skinny one over there, did you fucking hear me, line up properly!"

"Everyone, behave!"

...

Not long after, Lin Yi followed Li Huiyuan into the Safety Passage.

As they entered the Safety Passage, a cool sensation as if crossing a hidden portal seemed to fall upon Lin Yi’s body, prompting him to look instinctively at his side.

It turned out that the entrance of the Safety Passage had a door leaf, but the door was usually left open.

He continued forward.

The width of this Safety Passage was substantial, similar to the driving lanes of ordinary underground parking garages, surrounded by firm and cold stone blocks, seemingly carved out of a mountain, a stark contrast to the materials used inside the Gymnasium.

Despite the spaciousness of the passage, it still felt crowded with the flow of people, and the oppressive atmosphere was accentuated by the orange-yellow light pouring down from the incandescent lamps above, akin to being in a stiflingly warm chicken coop.

After walking a certain distance, Lin Yi started to feel a sense of familiarity with this passage.

Before he could figure out why, a strange call sounded from behind him.

[Lin Yi...]

Lin Yi’s steps suddenly halted, and his pupils shrank.

Li Huiyuan, holding his hand, jolted like a horse tugged by the reins, then looked at Lin Yi in confusion.

Around Lin Yi seemed to float a hazy aura, and the hand holding hers felt colder, as if soaked in chilling water.

"Lin, Lin Yi...?" Li Huiyuan called out worriedly.

At this moment, Lin Yi’s vision was still filled with the image of the passage, but accompanied by the overwhelming familiarity, his mind flashed with a vision!

He slowly looked towards the end of the Safety Passage, where the once-lit exit had become dim for no apparent reason. As if gifted with foresight, he saw a massive surge of water rush from the far end of the passage, quickly flooding the entire passage...

Subsequently, moss began to appear on the inner walls of the passage, and before long, it had transformed into the submerged castle passage he had seen in his Phantom Vision...

[Lin Yi...]

That voice sounded again, seemingly a familiar tone, yet he couldn’t remember who it was.

However, the direction the voice came from was unmistakably from behind him—not the rear of the Safety Passage, but behind him in this alternate reality depicted by the Phantom Vision!

That figure ensnared in chains, its oppressive presence haunting him, kept calling out to him.

"Lin Yi... Lin Yi..."

The sound echoed in his ears like a voice bouncing back from a deep valley, and in front of him was the anxious face of Li Huiyuan.

He hurriedly shook his head to dispel the Phantom Vision, then said, "I’m fine, I’m fine... Let’s go, let’s hurry to the Giant Dome!"

"Are you really okay...?" With the several drowning incidents that happened at the swimming pool, Li Huiyuan evidently was a bit skeptical.

But seeing Lin Yi so sure of himself, she refrained from asking further and decided to head for the Giant Dome first.

This time, Lin Yi noticed that the walls of the Safety Passage were adorned with some murals...

However, these murals were spaced far apart from each other and unlike other sports venues which would have walls covered with moments from their history and records of team honors, these were odd landscape paintings that seemed inexplicable at a glance.

Then there were murals with rough lines that appeared to capture the tension of athletic moments, yet also resembled ordinary characters.

And on some murals, they were simply filled with strange symbols written with brush strokes akin to calligraphy...

It was a distinctly dissonant phenomenon, as if imagining during an NBA halftime show, instead of a group of hot girls in short skirts, there came a Ma Hunyuan performing the Lightning Five-Chain Whip.

It had a very strange vibe.

Moving forward, the passage floor started to be covered with soft blue carpeting, nearly silencing footsteps and conferring the feeling of walking through a sacred hall.

Pure white light appeared at the end of the passage, reminiscent of the light gate deep within the Green Forest Belt.

Lin Yi didn’t have time to absorb the sensation as he, along with the crowd, exited the passage, swallowed by the white light...
