Chapter 792: Chapter 364: The "Design" That Was...?! _2

"Wait...!!"

"Wait wait wait!!!"

That elusive inspiration suddenly revealed a little tail!

He faintly grasped onto this tail!

"Could it be that this isn’t Tian Bufan’s planning, but... but ’our’ collective planning!"

"Is this part of the entire plan?"

"Maozi’s contamination!"

"The exploration of the campus!"

"The ashes we’ve been stained with!"

"Meeting Old Mo because of the Angel’s eyeball!"

"Training in the Gymnasium!"

"Kuai Kuai’s destruction of the Matrix and Old Mo’s repair of the Matrix!"

"My arrival at the Art Building!"

"Could all of this, everything, have been ’designed’?!"

"Who designed all this, could it be... ’me’?"

"’I’ designed... everything that ’I’ would encounter?!"

"No, not necessarily ’me’, but rather... ’us’?!"

Lin Yi’s train of thought became increasingly hazy; this fleeting inspiration seemed to be telling him something, yet these could also be things he originally knew!

He knew that parts of his memory were missing!

So——

All of this was pre-designed by them!

Moreover——

Young Master Tian just mentioned that on the fifth day, everything would be revealed, as this university experience lasts for a total of seven days, and waking up on the fifth day is essentially the start of the sixth day!

No matter what happens, there are two days of action time!

Wait a second, "two days"?!

Two days... Could there be some alternative meaning to this "time"?

"Two days! Liangzi initially said that he spent two days in the dormitory, but during those two days he was ’in a daze’, ’without any impression’, yet there appeared many Pseudo-Humans in the campus seemingly anchored towards Liangzi..."

"Is there a connection here, perhaps?"

Lin Yi increasingly felt that the seven-day university experience at S City University had some hidden implications; perhaps it was not the traditional "7", but "5+2", because for the last two days... the timetable has not been updated with any courses.

For an event that lasts for seven days, the last two days could hold special significance.

Despite it being somewhat inconceivable to pre-plan everything, after going through so much, Lin Yi feels that he must learn to accept even the most preposterous of events.

For instance, Wei Shan beat up the Chef in the green apron several times without showing any signs of contamination;

Like Kuai Hongji blowing up the Matrix and emerging unscathed,

Or Wei Liang’s seemingly rational yet totally irrational crafty tricks, always able to resolve crises just at the right moment...

Are these normal?

Feeling that they are normal is perhaps the most abnormal thing!

Wei Liang became increasingly lost in his own heart, and after going through the experience of the pseudo-human Wei Liang crawling on the Dormitory bed and the pseudo-human Wei Liang in the Teaching Building toilet calling out to him, he even felt that if the Night Watchman were to take off that sharply pointed hat to reveal Wei Liang’s face, it wouldn’t be something he couldn’t accept.

After all, Wei Liang’s duckbill cap was also inseparable from him, even inside the Gymnasium, except when swimming, he always wore it on his head without taking it off, as if the duckbill cap was truly his main body.

Lin Yi’s heart pounded rapidly, he collected his emotions, and after calming down, he thought again of the voice that seemed like Tian Bufan reminding him to "pay attention to the field of view." Only then did he realize, wasn’t the voice that appeared out of the blue his own?

It was as if there was a hidden, wise personality secretly observing his behavior from a God’s perspective and, unable to bear watching, gave him a little hint.

So, could it be that all he was experiencing right now was part of the "design" they had planned, a method of exploring art?

Three meters visibility, carpet-style progression, careful planning every step of the way, and if a problem arises, you can retract in time... Thinking about it this way, though limiting, perhaps it’s also an advantage?!

Selecting the appropriate measuring tools is key to doing a job well!

Lin Yi was almost persuaded by his own Ah-Q spirit, only that this series of rapid thoughts made his thinking clearer, yet at the same time, more and more confused.

He felt that just as his thoughts reached this level, they began to be interfered with by some other dimension, as if solving a problem halfway through when conditions become increasingly numerous, yet many of them have nothing to do with the answer...

He felt his brain getting more and more chaotic, and in a daze, he seemed to hear the sound of chains scraping against the ground...

That familiar yet terrifying sound!

However, just as the clattering noise of the chains began to emerge, a sound both heavy and crisp smashed his chaotic thoughts, pulling him back to reality.

’Ding!’

’Ding!!’

The thin figure that emerged in his mind still held the hammer, leisurely continuing to strike at something.

For some reason, upon hearing such hammering sounds, Lin Yi’s heart gradually calmed, like a person troubled by the mortal world suddenly hearing the sound of an ancient bell rung by an old monk in a remote mountain temple...

Lin Yi’s attention gradually shifted away from pondering these things and the thin figure, and everything slowly began to fade, but the rhythmic ’ding ding ding’ of the hammering continued, as if it had always been so since ancient times.

And those whispering and calling sounds lingering in his ears, like the hammering sounds, continued non-stop but became much clearer.

They seemed to become some kind of background music accompanying him.

Lin Yi, through adjusting to the rhythm, slowly adapted to the presence of these sounds, thereby minimizing their impact on himself. He maintained his three-meter ’Field of View Insight’, slowly moving along the wall of the Bell Tower.

Suddenly... his induction penetrated the walls of the Bell Tower!

His perception range was three meters, and when he approached the walls, the three-meter range naturally exceeded the boundary of the walls, extending to... the outside of the Bell Tower walls!

’I... perceived it!’

Golden light flickered in Lin Yi’s eyes, and the hair on his skin stood up like antennas, as if gathering some kind of invisible energy.

He saw on the external walls of the Bell Tower, a glue-like viscous liquid that clung to the surface, resembling the ’Poison Liquid’ forming a Symbiotic Battle Suit, constantly writhing and pulsing, spreading upwards like ivy clinging to the Bell Tower.

But wave after unseen wave, like ripples spreading out, repeatedly harvested them, causing them to shatter into countless specks of dust, mixing with the storm and blown haphazardly.

A large part of the ’Contamination’ in the storm came from their bodies, the material formed after their annihilation.

As if sensing Lin Yi’s presence, the liquid adhesive creatures around began to stir, converging towards Lin Yi!

They made a ’hissing’ noise, like a sensitive swarm of black liquid bugs, converging at the scent.

Just when Lin Yi thought he could safely observe them, shielded by the walls of the Bell Tower, he saw the liquid black adhesive gently tremble, and then a sensation as if his soul was stabbed transmitted into his Mind!

His ’Perception’... as if bitten by bugs!

Lin Yi’s face transformed, retreating rapidly, pulling the three-meter range back within the walls!

He touched his head, feeling a headache coming on, as if someone quickly poked him with a nail, with an aftereffect that was too intense, hurting so much that he grimaced in pain.

But soon, the Supernatural Power within him surged up, beginning to ’Repair’ him.

’What in the world are those things... and why can they nibble away my ’Perception’?!
