Chapter 688: Chapter 315 Borrowing a Knife to Kill Someone_2

At this moment, Song Rentou finally realized that Wei Liang’s outstretched leg was not meant to trip him, but to fish for him!

Cast the rod to watch for awareness, lift the rod to exploit the technique!

But by the time it reacted, it was too late. The noise it made tumbling down the stairs was too loud, and furthermore, having lost the protection of the shadowed area, it was suddenly exposed to the view of the Sports Students.

"Hmm?" Xie Huayang was slightly startled, his gaze suddenly fixed onto the target, and a brilliant golden light exploded from the depths of his eyes, "Pseudo-Human? Nocturnal species? No, what the hell is that thing?! Quick, catch him!"

Xie Huayang took the lead, charging straight toward Song Rentou. Despite losing an arm, his actions seemed to be hardly affected.

Several other Sports Students also quickly reacted, and those near Song Rentou in the stands immediately surrounded him.

Song Rentou had not yet gotten up when he fell into the encirclement. Without time to think, he immediately flipped over the railings.

"Damn!" Xie Huayang latched onto the railings, unable to help but curse, "He dares to flip over this?!"

...

"A Banquet’s opening?" Lin Yi and Li Huiyuan both exclaimed in unison.

"Is it a banquet for eating?" Lin Yi couldn’t help but ask.

"Banquet," Lin Yi had heard Senior Sister Xia Lian mention it once before but didn’t know what it was all about.

But the word "banquet" definitely sounded related to "eating"... And with the situation at hand, could it be that the Physical Education Teachers were planning to grill a Rage Angel right here for consumption?

Speaking of grilling, it seemed to be a tradition among Sports Students; one only needed to see Old Du and his companions excel at it, but that seemed to have nothing to do with actual eating!

Just then, they heard some noises coming from the building, and immediately looked in the direction of the sounds.

"Eh, is that... Song Rentou?" Lin Yi, from the first level of the stands, inexplicably recognized that it was Song Rentou.

Song Rentou, who should have fallen due to gravity after flipping over the railings, didn’t drop but instead began to flee along the outer wall of the stands, acting like a version of Quicksilver using all four limbs, almost as if it had altered its own gravitational direction.

It tried to escape the encirclement led by Xie Huayang and others, but this instead drew even more attention to it.

"Song Rentou?" Li Huiyuan was taken aback, "Who is that?"

"A classmate, previously called on during roll call; it’s normal that you don’t remember..." said Lin Yi.

Li Huiyuan responded with an "Oh," she genuinely didn’t remember, after all, not everyone would take the effort to remember names like Lin Yi did.

"But how can it move along the walls just like that Chef in the green apron?"

Song Rentou’s current behavior indeed resembled the Chef in the green apron, and in Li Huiyuan’s memory, that Chef in the green apron also indeed made quite an impression.

However, compared to the abstract appearance of the Chef in the green apron, the current Song Rentou looked more like some kind of reptilian Yi species.

"It’s not ’green apron’..." said Senior Sister Xia Lian in a low voice, "But it’s clearly not something normal."

"Senior Sister Xia Lian, can you tell what that thing is?" asked Lin Yi, "A Pseudo-Human? Nocturnal species? Or something else?"

After pondering for a moment, Xia Lian shook her head slightly: "I can’t tell. It has features of both ’human’ and ’Pseudo-Human,’ as well as traits similar to ’Purebred Nightwalkers,’ but it’s utterly different from them..."

"And its body is filled with a grey breath, like it carries that ’Grey Mist’ kind of thing..."

"It’s like something that doesn’t belong in our layer."

Lin Yi’s heart trembled slightly: "Something from the Art Building layer?"

"How do you even know about the Art Building?"

"The Boss told me." Lin Yi quickly used the Boss as backup.

"Nonsense, the Boss wouldn’t tell you that, and even if he did, he wouldn’t go into such detail." Xia Lian stared at Lin Yi’s face for a while before shifting her gaze away, "Nevermind, it doesn’t matter... nothing matters anymore; it won’t escape from here anyway, and soon we’ll know what side it’s from."

"As for you... the Boss has got your back, I don’t care about anything else now; of course, I’m not in a position to care anyway."

After Xia Lian finished speaking, her tone actually relaxed a bit, "Just watch, someone will bring it down soon... Even if the Sports Student can’t catch it, the Teacher won’t let it hop around."

"Before the Banquet, these fleas will all be cleaned up."

Hearing the word "Banquet" again, Lin Yi couldn’t help but feel immense curiosity, and a trace of... anticipation.

Sure enough, just when Song Rentou thought he had escaped, under the dim dome, a dazzling streak of light appeared, hitting him with the precision of a shooting star!

"Boom!!"

With a heavy thud, dust billowed at the railing of the second tier of the stand, Song Rentou fell from the dust, smashing to the ground with a "bang", his body convulsing, struggling, as if trying to get up from the ground.

Lin Yi noticed that there was a huge wound on Song Rentou’s back, like a crater that appears after the earth is hit by a shell, accompanied by some sky-blue steam...

And beneath that sky-blue steam, there seemed to be a half-dissipated sky-blue sphere of nothingness.

"What is...?!"

He seemed to have a premonition, hastily looking toward where the light had come from, then saw Xu Shunkang holding a baseball bat, his two fingers coming together, tapping his own forehead, and then he waved in a certain direction.

Next to Xu Shunkang, there was a pitcher-looking Sports Student, with a thick baseball glove on his hand, tossing a sky-blue light ball shaped like a Spiral Ball.

The thing that had hit Song Rentou was this sky-blue light ball, or rather...

"Baseball?!"

Clearly, the pitcher had thrown a ball that, after being empowered by Xu Shunkang’s home run hit, transformed into a long-range shot that directly KO’d Song Rentou.

On the other side, Xie Huayang nodded towards Xu Shunkang, then looked at Song Rentou on the first tier of the stands with a smirk at the corner of his mouth, repeating, "Tch, daring to flip..."

He glanced at the surrounding Sports Students: "Let’s go down, don’t keep the others waiting."

...

Song Rentou was still struggling on the spot, the Grey Mist inside him began repairing his injured body like threading a needle, his whole person twitching and writhing on the ground, seemingly repairing his wounds at a very fast speed.

However, some Second Order Sports Students obviously weren’t going to give him any chance, several Sports Students looked at each other, walked out from the stands, pulled out their baseball bats, picked him up, and threw him onto the sports field.

Soon all the Sports Students arrived at the first tier of the stands, and then, Lin Yi noticed the whole Giant Dome began to tremble, as if a fierce beast awakened, the earth’s crust quivering.

"Lin, Lin Yi, look!" Li Huiyuan pointed to the dome of the Giant Dome, her voice trembling, "The dome is moving!"

Lin Yi looked quickly and saw the dome of the Giant Dome was slowly closing.

"This dome can close?" he asked Xia Lian, his question was not about whether it could close, but why it was closing now.

Hadn’t all those Angel Sculptures been put inside?

Wouldn’t there be no problems if it closed earlier?

"No, wait..." As soon as Lin Yi asked, he immediately realized the answer to this problem.

The Giant Dome dome can close, but it didn’t at the start, intentionally waiting until this moment to do so, which has to do with the "Banquet" Xia Lian mentioned!

He widened his eyes, lost for words: "The food for the ’Banquet’, couldn’t be... those Angel Sculptures, right?!"

Xia Lian was planning to answer him, seeing him talking to himself as if switching between two people, she couldn’t help but say, "Didn’t you figure it out by yourself?"

"It is so!" Lin Yi said in surprise.

So it is indeed!

Because if it were just for closing, the Giant Dome wouldn’t need such a design; they could have simply built a closed structure from the start, isn’t creating something that opens and closes a waste?

So the only answer is that from the design layer, the Giant Dome needs to be able to close at any time.
