Chapter 707: Chapter 325: Repairing the Crack

"I saw the city wall collapse, everyone sinking into the sea in an instant. Was that a scene from the future?"

"Will not just the boss die, but everyone?"

"The future me escaped from death, and then returned to this point in time through dreams, giving me a... hint?"

A levee destroyed by an ant hole!

My future self is guiding my present self... to repair the cracks in the city wall?

The butterfly effect...

The Mobius strip...

The grandfather paradox...

"Could it be..."

"If that’s the case..."

"What about the ’now’?"

"Is this just some time in the past?!"

While Lin Yi was reflecting in this way, massive amounts of golden aura surged into his consciousness, even the golden aura formed from the crushed shell of the Graveyard of the Deceased was greedily devoured by him!

His brain seemed to be initiating a horrifying calculation, and this sort of extrapolation might drive him insane and lead to collapse!

"No, no, no..."

"Can’t think about it! Can’t think about it!!"

"I am the now!"

"The present, means the future has not yet arrived!"

Lin Yi’s consciousness trembled continuously, he was very uncertain, but this fear of the unknown, and his perception of "time," made him feel that this hypothesis might be close to the truth!

"Never mind! Can’t think about it anymore!"

"Regardless, I need to try and repair this part of the crack right now!"

Perhaps the last him on May 9th, after leaving the water surface and returning to his original form, overlooked the problem on The City Wall, or maybe it was for some other reason... but he couldn’t care less about that now.

He would handle the matter first, and then... when there is time, he would thoroughly discuss it with Young Master Tian and the rest in the dormitory, and also Liangzi, no matter what, he must pry something out from him this time!

Even if it means blabbering, he would make him tap out Morse code!

His will was stronger than ever, and an iron will is the most powerful weapon in such moments!

He continued to guide the transformation of the milky white tar-like viscous substance formed from the remains of the Graveyard of the Deceased, allowing it to continuously seep into the cracks, and then using the golden aura to change its penetration method, making it first enter the surrounding grid lines, and then through stress analysis with the help of the golden aura, adjusting the grid lines, restoring them bit by bit to the standard values of "My World"!

"It can actually work!"

"Huber was right! The theory of ’shape-changing capabilities’ is actually feasible?!"

The little knowledge accumulated casually turned out to be a serendipitous help!

There might be a factor of luck involved, but mentioning it now would be like being opportunistic.

As the grid lines were corrected, the damaged area of The City Wall began continuously receiving the milky white tar-like substance filling, complementing each other, under Lin Yi’s guidance, it actually started to take effect.

In this absurd layer model, it was as if an extra old cement worker with a trowel was scooping up cement formed from the Graveyard of the Deceased to repair the cracks in The City Wall.

And this time, the shell of the Graveyard of the Deceased finally turned into the form of Wall Powder it should be.

Time quietly passed... unaware of how much time elapsed, the shell of the Graveyard of the Deceased was completely "used up," and only when Lin Yi had nothing left to "use" did he regain his senses from the focused state of repair.

And even so, the crack on The City Wall was only insignificantly repaired.

Such a small area, relative to the overall area of the crack, was but a drop in the ocean, yet, unlike a mere sticker, even though the effect was slight, it worked because it worked.

He didn’t finalize it, just missed some raw materials.

Just then, it seemed as if the aura in the Giant Dome was completely sucked dry, the original form no longer provided golden aura, a strong feeling of weakness began to surge over Lin Yi’s heart like a tide.

Lin Yi intuitively understood, with a thought, he shouted a warning and slid smoothly back into his original form.

As his consciousness touched his original form in that instant, the whole world was once again covered by a grid, and before his eyes appeared the scene of the Giant Dome transforming back into The City Wall—an everything was like peeled off and stuck onto the spatial dimension, as the spatial ripples shifted and moved, the grid lines stretched and contracted, like playing cat’s cradle on a pair of dexterous invisible hands...

This time, however, the changes he observed were in reverse, The City Wall in front of him disintegrated and reconstructed in an inconceivable manner, constantly changing on the spatial dimension, eventually transforming into the Giant Dome...

The changes accelerated, and soon, his world was left with only a dazzling white light...

...

Not long ago, in the Giant Dome’s layer, on the protruding architecture under the dome, the boss watched the ever-beating hearts inside the Pseudo-Human Sports Students’ skeletons, slowly furrowing his brow.

"How come the heartbeat hasn’t stopped...?"

"It seems the situation is different this time..." a Physical Education Teacher said, "Shall we go and check The City Wall?"

The boss nodded without hesitation: "Let’s go."

The group then held up old kerosene lamps, continuing to chant the Cautions of the Night Watchman, and at this moment, the ethereal appearance of the Night Watchman emerged behind them.

The next moment, with a layer change, the Giant Dome beneath their feet transformed into The City Wall, and the places they originally stood, after the alteration of the layers, moved like gears along some complex yet predetermined path, finally coming together—into a position on The City Wall.
