#300 - The gateway to the dense forest and the coastline
Who could have imagined that the pseudo-human Li Kai wouldn't die immediately after his heart exploded!
He could feel the pseudo-human Li Kai's life force leaking away rapidly, like a punctured tire, but even leaking is a process.
He thought the pseudo-human Li Kai would explode like a balloon, but he only turned out to be like a tire?
"Miscalculation!"
Before he could think of a next step, the stabbing pain from behind, a sensation of being gradually 'penetrated,' made him feel the threat of death once again.
But he really couldn't move at this moment.
He and the pseudo-human Li Kai were now like two corpses at the top of a pile of bodies after a war, pinned there by spears and countless stray arrows.
The only thing Lin Yi could move was his palm, and every piece of the pseudo-human Li Kai's flesh was exerting force, like a dying octopus using its last bit of strength to try to strangle its prey.
Suddenly, Lin Yi began to devour the surrounding "Primordial Pollution" like a bottomless pit, subconsciously urging the "Primordial Pollution" to transform into sky-blue energy, repairing his battered body...
In this way, although he was still continuously being harmed by the pseudo-human Li Kai, under the effect of the sky-blue energy and his own powerful recovery ability, he couldn't say that he completely negated the opponent's damage, but at least he curbed further damage to his body.
He failed to kill the pseudo-human Li Kai instantly, but relying on his powerful recovery ability to wear him down, he could still kill it with time.
The pseudo-human Li Kai was stunned. In the next moment, a ghostly fluctuation appeared in his gray stone eyes: "Impossible..."
"This is impossible..."
"You must die... You must!"
"Damn it... this plot isn't right!" Lin Yi's forehead was already covered in sweat. "Shouldn't the normal script involve saying 'impossible' and then obediently waiting to die? What's with this novel 'must die' plot, damn it?!"
If some unlucky guy was here, he would definitely say helplessly, 'Big brother, you're the villain! This kind of positive energy operation of exchanging one life for another at the point of death shouldn't happen to you, hey!,' and then pull out the Seven Deadly Sins and carve him up piece by piece.
But he didn't have the Seven Deadly Sins, he only had himself.
But since the other party had taken the hero's lines, he could only shamelessly shout the lines that every villain shouts:
"No, I must survive!"
Yes, he had to survive.
No reason, not to take another look at Boss or Li Huiyuan, nor to joke around with Wei Liang again, but a most pure, physiological desire to live.
I don't want to die, and I can't die, so... I must live.
The brilliant golden flames rekindled in his eyes, his pupils like a scorching sun rising in the dark night. At this moment, all the energy surged into the pseudo-human Li Kai's body through his palm, frantically shattering its last bit of vitality.
But the pseudo-human Li Kai seemed unusually calm.
"Let's die together."
His lines were still so full of positive energy, like a hero going to his death alone, making Lin Yi feel more and more like a complete bastard.
In the next moment, all the hairs on Lin Yi's body stood on end, his scalp felt as if he had been shocked with a cattle prod, and a creepy sense of crisis suddenly rose from the pseudo-human Li Kai's body, engulfing him like an abyss!
The pseudo-human Li Kai detonated all the extraordinary power in his body.
He self-destructed.
And Lin Yi was at the center of the self-destruction.
"Boom—"
Lin Yi only felt an extremely compressed energy being released in front of him, and even the vision in front of him was slightly distorted by the impact.
Accompanied by a heavy explosion, an indescribable feeling surged like a tsunami, overwhelming Lin Yi from all directions.
Lin Yi's eyes were filled with white light, and even the sensation of pain was erased. He couldn't feel anything.
Art is explosion, an explosion for a lifetime.
Too simple and unadorned.
Too pure.
Too... damn it.
"Boss, did you know the pseudo-human Li Kai would explode?!"
"So you firmly believe it can't kill me?"
If this was Boss's idea, then in the last moment when white light occupied all of Lin Yi's vision, Lin Yi had never trusted Boss's judgment of him so much...
The white light gradually dissipated...
He heard some wind.
Good news... still alive.
The wind seemed to carry some sounds of water.
Bad news... this definitely isn't the gymnasium.
Knowing the worst result, Lin Yi was very calm.
"First, I need to confirm one thing... Did I drop a layer this time, or was I blasted to the brink of death and then got into someone else's perspective..."
"Or, does each account for a bit..."
The white light dissipated, and Lin Yi's vision gradually cleared.
He seemed to be in the depths of a dense forest, and the end of his vision seemed to be... a white light?
"Huh... this environment... seems a bit familiar..."
Lin Yi thought of the scene when Mu Daxian and Maozi were traversing the depths of the green forest belt, but this seemed to be somewhat different from that.
"Not the scene from that time, but..."
But the scene in that illusion that appeared when he was acquiring a large amount of information from H-manga in the classroom!
Fortunately, this perspective was still moving at a speed that did not belong to humans, which meant that Lin Yi had not dropped a layer, nor had he entered a hallucination, but his perspective had jumped to someone else again.
Because he had experienced perspective shifts before, but those shifts were all influenced by his subjective will.
So whose perspective is this time?
So far, the only perspectives he has entered in his dreams are Tian Gongzi, Wei Sang, and Maozi, which seem to have a bit of Kuai Kuai.
As for Liangzi... he has never had Wei Liang's perspective.
Not to mention whether he has Wei Liang's perspective or not, even if he did, he would still be passionately sparring with Xiao Zhouzi at this time!
So... is it Wei Sang or Kuai Kuai?
If he had to choose one, Lin Yi would be more inclined to think this was Kuai Kuai's perspective.
Kuai Hongji, among Lin Yi's roommates, is relatively independent, gloomy and taciturn, a man of few words, like someone living in the shadows, affectionately called Yin Bi by Wei Sang.
"First, let's clarify one point... I'm in the gymnasium."
Lin Yi muttered in his heart.
In the next moment, the originally clear picture in front of him immediately showed some ripple-like undulations, and he seemed to see a light bulb in that dazzling white light...
He seemed to see the shadow of non-slip floor glue at the edge of his vision, and at the same time, the boundless pain began to become clear...
"Can I anchor back so easily?"
"Then forget it... I won't anchor for now."
Lin Yi emptied his mind, not thinking about the matter of "being in the gymnasium," and gradually he no longer felt the pain, and his fluctuating perspective became clear again.
He decided to take a look at this perspective.
So he saw the misty dense forest again, the dense fog floating on the ground like dust, the whole world like a dilapidated fairyland with exhausted spiritual energy.
"It's like the place I saw in the Phantasm..."
"Could this not be Kuai Kuai's perspective, but a place where 'I' once came... ?"
The newest novels are first published on 69shu.吧!
Forgotten memory fragments in his mind occasionally surfaced in the form of phantasms... like... decompressing?
Is it Tian Gongzi's kind of memory awakening?
Then is this actually a perspective or... a memory?
The perspective continued to move deeper, the fog in the deep forest became thicker and heavier, and the surrounding trees became more and more ancient, the thick trunks covered with dry and loose bark, the mottled light and shadow seemed to take people into a yellowed old photograph.
Gradually, the trees began to twist into strange shapes, the fog like ribbons wrapped around the treetops, and through the fog, you could still see a thick layer of moldy fallen leaves covering the ground...
An unknown wind blew across the ground, and under the fallen leaves, it seemed to be... cracked earth, and under the earth, flowed a dark red, lava-like substance...
An indescribable sense of oppression permeated this world, this entire forest seemed to be the body hair of a giant, the earth was the cracked skin, and the fog was the steam lingering on the skin... different from the sky-blue steam of sports students and the green mist of art students, it was another kind of... gray mist!
"Gray mist...?!"
The dense forest filled with gray mist, at the end of it seemed to be a portal to another world...
But that was not a pure door, but a white expanse of light mist, the light mist permeated the darkest part of the deep forest, strangely and bizarrely bright.
Lin Yi became more and more convinced that this was not Kuai Kuai's perspective, but his Phantasm!
However, compared to the last Phantasm, this time the Phantasm was obviously much clearer, with many more details.
His perspective began to approach that portal, he knew that behind the portal was a coastline, he didn't find the shadow of the art building on the coastline last time he had the Phantasm, but he felt that it was the art building layer!
Traversing the depths of the dense forest would seem to lead to the layer where the art building was located.
However, just as he thought that this time the perspective would be the same as last time, he saw a huge black shadow flashing in the dense forest on the other side...
"Clang clang clang..."
"Clang clang clang..."
The sound of metal pieces rubbing against swords came from all around, the mysterious species in the depths of the dense forest seemed to be wandering like souls.
Some strange, fragmented murmurs slowly sounded from some unknown corners, they mixed in the howling wind, the subtle trembling of the leaves, and the sound of sand and gravel rolling, bit by bit, they were crushed and floated outward...
It seemed to be a hoarse, hoarse call, seemingly saying:
【fanT… ome… fRa… forR… idEn…】
【fanTome fRa… forR… idEn…】
What a long-lost rhythm of calling...
"This is..."
"The sound of the Heretic Hymn Choir!"
"Alien Angels... Memorial Stele Forest of the Dead?!"
Lin Yi looked around in horror, the fog in the dim dense forest almost solidified into substance, layer upon layer like thousands of mountains, and in the depths of the fog, in that dark realm that even light and shadow could hardly reach, there seemed to be some kind of behemoth lurking.
"That's not the Memorial Stele Forest of the Dead..."
This was Lin Yi's intuition.
He felt that it seemed to be something even more terrifying, its shape like a moving wall, it was slowly moving on the ground, seemingly some kind of strangely shaped black serpent...
But in his cognition, no snake possessed such a huge size.
He immediately thought of the terrifying human flow composed of pure Night-Stalkers that had chased Maozi and Mu Daxian, perhaps only that kind of human flow had that kind of size, but, pure Night-Stalkers were all a kind of soft, limp thing, how could they have the sound of metal and iron pieces rubbing?
Just then, he heard a sound coming from the wind, like the melodious sound of a whistle piercing through the heavy fog, coming from the depths of the ocean on the wind, seemingly crossing the barrier of time, drifting and traversing thousands of mountains and rivers, finally arriving here...
That was...
【I Avgru… Nnen av tKe og mr… ke jaGer for… Tapte Sjeler… fanTome!】
【I AvgruNnen… av tKe og mrke… jaGer forTapte… Sjeler fanTome…】
As soon as this sound appeared, Lin Yi felt a sense of dizziness, he felt that the surrounding environment began to undergo that kind of irregular distortion, the green belt became like seaweed, and the whole world seemed to sink into the bottom of the sea.
"Clang clang clang..."
"Clang clang clang..."
That behemoth slowly moved, and the wind began to be filled with that kind of ear-piercing metallic sound...
Countless shadows seemed to be wriggling out of the depths of the dense forest, surging towards him.
"No... I have to go back!"
Lin Yi felt that this sound was constantly stimulating him, trying to break through the limits of his cognition, and while his mind was still relatively clear, this "observation" had to end here.
Just as he had this idea, intending to anchor himself back to the gymnasium, he suddenly found that his field of vision suddenly swept away rapidly towards the only stable place in the distorted environment—the portal covered with a layer of white light mist.
"Something's happening?!"
In an instant, he crossed that portal.
"Whoosh—whoosh—"
"Splash—splash—"
Everything was so familiar, when his field of vision recovered, he found that his field of vision had once again come to that coastline.
The sea breeze carried a bit of salty and humid air, the black waves pushed onto the beach and slowly retreated back into the sea, and the foam on the beach shattered at his feet, like bubbles spit out by crabs...
The sound in his ears became louder and louder, and was finally completely drowned out by the deafening roar of the huge waves hitting the reefs.
On this desolate coastline, even seagulls and birds were nowhere to be seen, he seemed to be the only life existing between heaven and earth.
He seemed to hear a sound coming from behind him, he wanted to look back, but a strange thought popped up in his mind.
《Don't look back》
