Chapter 946: Chapter 439: The Secret of the Abandoned Classroom

And now he was looking at the corridor bridge leading to Building C.

As he stared at the corridor, golden light surged in his eyes. "Field of View Insight" quietly activated, and his vision seemed to traverse out of his soul at lightning speed across the corridor bridge. Deep within the corridor, he immediately saw several Sneering Angels lying in wait.

"I was too careless..." Lin Yi gritted his teeth, his tone sour. "Looks like Sneering Angels have completely invaded this area already..."

"Lin Linzi, what do we do? I heard Boss say that if we encounter Sneering Angels, we must retreat to the gymnasium immediately..." Li Huiyuan’s voice carried an unmistakable tone of fear. "Since none of the routes seem safe, why don’t we head for the stairs? Go back to the campus layer; maybe they won’t be able to chase us there!"

She wasn’t naive anymore; she knew that without the old kerosene lantern, there was no way to counteract Sneering Angels. If one of these intangible entities locked you down, the only outcomes would be death—or something worse.

"Don’t panic, I’m here." Lin Yi was also unnerved, but he couldn’t let his apprehension show to Li Huiyuan.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

Almost every rule had mentioned this: Never close your eyes at certain moments—but he closed them anyway.

Because—

"My World! Activate—!!"

Lin Yi silently bellowed, and it felt as though he had plunged into an endless darkness. His perception rippled outward from him in concentric waves!

His perception began frantically infiltrating the surrounding world, feeding back the image of everything in a grid-like structure into his mind.

Corridor...

Stairwell...

Corridor bridge to Building A...

Corridor bridge to Building C...

Teacher’s Office...

Class B Group 15...

The forbidden area "Teaching Building - B-5F" was completely mapped out in his mental landscape, every minor detail captured.

Meanwhile, his perception spread downward along the stairs and extended further along the corridor ahead of the classrooms...

"No... we can’t go downstairs..." he muttered.

"Huh?" Li Huiyuan was puzzled.

"The layer isn’t shifting. Even at the stairway, we won’t be able to go down... There are six Sneering Angels lurking there. And if the campus layer over there doesn’t have cloud cover blocking the sunlight, we’ll be attacked by the Sneering Angels..."

Going downstairs would mean gambling on whether the Sneering Angels would eliminate them first or if the cloud cover would arrive to protect them.

The danger was that Sneering Angels excelled at penetrating layers; even traversing between dimensions wouldn’t ensure their escape unless they reached sunlight.

Lin Yi desperately wished they were dealing with Rage Angels instead; that way, he could use some brute force. But unfortunately, Sneering Angels lay outside his current range of damage capabilities.

No matter how strong physical attacks were, they meant nothing against physical immunity—it was like being served up on a platter.

His perception continued stretching outward...

Class B Group 14...

Class B Group 13...

"Huh?!"

Lin Yi’s heart leapt with joy.

"Class B Group 13’s door... It’s closed! There are remnants of school uniforms at the entrance!"

"And the corridor has ten Sneering Angels, but they’re all concentrated near us, leaving the area around Class 13 virtually clear." _{\n(o)v.e\l.com}

"You mean Class 13 might be hiding some of the campus survivors? So we’re going to take shelter there for now?" Li Huiyuan asked.

Lin Yi nodded. "A closed door means Class 13 is completely isolated by a ’Door Attribute!’ My perception cannot penetrate it!"

"The school uniform scraps are still new, which indicates there’s at least one ’student’ hiding inside!"

"But what about those Sneering Angels?" Li Huiyuan pointed at the ten Sneering Angel Sculptures lying in wait in the corridor.

"We’ll charge straight through!" Lin Yi replied. "I currently have no way to counter Sneering Angels outside the gymnasium..."

"But since the Sneering Angels haven’t awakened yet, that gives us time. As long as we reach the classroom before they wake up and attack us!"

Lin Yi had ample experience evading Sneering Angels, and his ability to gauge their awakening time was remarkably precise.

No tricks, just familiarity.

"Let’s go!" With this thought in mind, he grabbed Li Huiyuan’s hand and bolted.

Sure enough, as he approached the Sneering Angels, they picked up on Lin Yi’s movements, emitting a series of "crackling" noises as they began to stir awake.

Lin Yi’s goal was crystal clear: he brushed past them and charged straight toward Class B Group 13’s door.

The Sneering Angels started fully awakening...

Lin Yi reached Class B Group 13’s door, confirmed the room number above, and placed his hand on the doorknob.

"Click!"

"Click-click! Click-click-click...!"

The door was locked from the inside.

"Damn it!" Lin Yi couldn’t help but swear, but it confirmed his suspicion that there was definitely someone normal hiding inside.

After all, only someone from the Human World would pull off this kind of absurd Netherworld-level locked-door maneuver.

"Click-click..."

He couldn’t open the door and felt an urge to break it down directly. However, considering the Door Attribute lurking in play, forcing entry could lead to unexpected complications.

Suddenly, inspiration struck—

The first rule from the "Sports Student Code!"

["The Athlete’s Certificate" is not a tangible object; it is a unique biological code that gets imprinted into your biological data when you activate the Sports Student curriculum.

Once you’ve mastered the use of the Athlete’s Certificate, you can unlock most ’Door Attribute’ items within the campus.

Until then, you may use the "Sports Student Code" as a substitute for the Athlete’s Certificate, granting partial similar effects while inside the gymnasium.]
