Chapter 689: Chapter 316 "Banquet" and "Guests

Xia Lian said calmly, "This entire Giant Dome is like a Melting Furnace... during the Grey Mist Invasion, students of the Second Order and above will capture all invaders, and then throw them into this furnace for smelting."

"At the same time, to alleviate the positive pressure given by the Angel Sculpture to the Gymnasium, we often guide the Experience Students who are taking refuge here, or the First Order students, to the Giant Dome to attract the descent of the Angel Sculpture."

"In this way, we can resolve them in one fell swoop to the greatest extent."

"After the closure of the Giant Dome, the positions of food and diner are reversed... The ’Contamination’ carried in the bodies of the Angel Sculptures and the invaders will be expelled during the smelting, becoming ’Primordial Pollution’, which we then take the opportunity to draw into our bodies to become our own power."

"I’m saying this, I don’t know if you can understand."

She was sharing her experience with Li Huiyuan, but at the same time, she was also giving Lin Yi an informative briefing.

"I think I kind of understand... It’s like those novels where they cook ancient beasts into food and then apply it externally and consume internally!" Lin Yi said, "In that case, they really seem to be wholly treasures!"

Xia Lian rolled her eyes: "The food chain isn’t the only thing... They are food at this moment, but at other times, aren’t we food in their eyes too?"

"Believe me, once the Grey Mist Invasion starts, if you leave the Gymnasium... your scent will drift for miles."

Lin Yi shivered: "Senior Sister Xia Lian, your sudden humor is giving me the chills..."

"Boom!"

The dome closed with a rumbling sound, and the Boss and Physical Education Teachers hung the iron chains above the dome and entered the Giant Dome before it closed.

"Is it time to start the ’Melting Furnace’ next?" Lin Yi asked expectantly.

Xia Lian shook her head: "It’s not time yet, wait a bit longer, some guests haven’t arrived yet."

"’Guests’? What’s that?" Lin Yi asked.

"You’ll know soon enough." Xia Lian said.

"Why can’t you just tell me directly?" Lin Yi was somewhat speechless.

Xia Lian chuckled: "Didn’t you guess right before, why not take another guess?"

"These guests couldn’t be ironical, could they? Are there still invaders who haven’t come? Other Angel Statues?"

This also made sense, after all, the area around the Gymnasium really felt like it was using a ’slinger’s language’.

Just like Van Gogh was once an Art Student, who would dare say Confucius couldn’t be a Sports Student?

Confucius said: If friends come from afar, I divide and eat it.

It’s like the Gymnasium’s plaque is all about hospitality, right!

But Xia Lian shook her head.

Lin Yi tentatively asked: "So it’s a genuine guest?"

Xia Lian nodded.

"Could it be... a chef? Both a cook and a diner, eating while cooking?"

Xia Lian shook her head again.

"Ugh... so hard to guess!" A bitter smile hung on Lin Yi’s face, "It couldn’t possibly be inviting Art Students as guests... Eh? Senior Sister Xia Lian, that expression... Don’t tell me?"

With her eyebrows raised, Xia Lian looked at him with amusement but did not respond to his words.

Lin Yi’s heart chilled, he knew he might have guessed correctly, but... Art Students coming to the Gymnasium?!

Wasn’t it stated in the Art Student Rules that they should not go to the Gymnasium?

[The Gymnasium is a facility composed of a venue and the Giant Dome. If you accidentally enter the Gymnasium area, please leave at the first moment you realize.

Absolutely do not linger in the Gymnasium area (you can confirm the area by the lamp posts)]

— "Art Student Rules"

The content of the "Art Student Rules" flashed through his mind.

Xia Lian joked: "How can you be so sure the Art Students won’t come? Unless you’ve... read the Art Student Rules, huh?"

Lin Yi’s mind was stunned, but he calmly said, "What? I just feel it’s impossible..."

After speaking, he turned his gaze to the playground below the stands.

Song Rentou was thrown to the edge area of the playground, currently wriggling his body constantly, his spine was almost directly smashed, and who knows how many bones in his body were shattered.

Yet even so, with the help of the Grey Mist inside him, his body was still recovering at a visibly fast rate.

"Grey Mist..." Lin Yi stared at the figure of Song Rentou, his eyebrows slowly knitting together.

Grey Mist... what exactly is it?

What connection does the Unit filled with Grey Mist inside have with the event of ’Grey Mist Invasion’?

Before Lin Yi could begin to ponder this question, he suddenly felt a slight shake beneath his feet.

This subtle sensation of shaking was hard to notice but impossible to ignore, like a person standing on the earth could always feel even the slightest tilt of the ground beneath their feet.

Within Lin Yi’s sharp Perception, such changes were amplified many times over.

He felt a slight shift in his body’s center of gravity, and this shifting feeling was completely random, as if standing on a boat where the originally calm lake surface was stirred by the wind, causing ripples across the lake.

Before he could adjust to the magnitude of this motion, he immediately noticed that Grey Mist began to seep out on the first floor of the Giant Dome’s playground!

Gradually, the Grey Mist covered the entire ground, the playground’s green grass being obscured by the mist; the whole land seemed to be enshrouded in a cloud.

"Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh..."

Indistinctly, beneath the Grey Mist, there seemed to be the sound of flowing water.
