Infinity Throne

On the way.

Yi Lin quickly took out a pack of compressed biscuits from the storage space and ate it.

It tastes like chewing wax and seems like chewing wood.

But no matter what, after eating the compressed biscuits, the hunger in my belly was finally relieved a lot.

"Want a piece?"

Yi Lin generously took out another bag and handed it to Oda Mai.

Oda Mai pursed her lips, originally wanting to refuse.

Gu Gu Gu——

But there were bursts of empty sounds coming from Oda Mai’s flat belly.

So Oda Mai quickly took the compressed biscuit from Yi Rin's hand and no longer refused.

After a simple meal.

Yi Lin and Mai Oda returned to the teaching building and walked onto the rooftop.

The rooftop still seemed very empty.

A girl with a quiet back is leaning on the railing of the rooftop, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. This scene is as beautiful as a painting, and the girl is like a white lotus in the painting.

Well, if I insist on giving this painting a name.

Then it should be..."The Girl and the Pale Sky"?

Yi Lin nodded with satisfaction.

He has always been very confident in his naming taste.

[A girl suddenly appears in front of you. 】

[A girl who makes you feel that the world in front of you suddenly becomes pale. 】

[The back of this girl makes you feel as if at this moment, it no longer matters what the world has become. 】

【So, you choose——】

[A. Walk up and pat the girl on the shoulder and ask her name. 】

[B. Walk quietly to the girl's side, staring at the sky with blurred eyes. 】

[C. Immediately turn around and leave, giving up on the encounter that may happen in this story. 】

Options and narration appear again.

But in fact, for Yi Lin now, the options are meaningless except for giving a little hint.

He could choose D, or even E, maybe F?

In short, everything is a choice.

Even choices that are not options are choices.

"Don't choose randomly."

Yi Lin was afraid that Oda Mai would randomly choose C again, so she reminded her in a low voice.

Oda Mai had already hung the long black sheath sword on her waist and nodded silently.

As if to say——

"I choose the knife."

Yi Lin pondered the options.

If the Hanhan classmate who died here had this option before him, then his death was indeed not unjust.

At the beginning of the trial, it is indeed easy to be trapped and killed without knowing the reason.

Thinking of this, Yi Lin smiled slightly.

Without hesitation, I chose C directly.

At the moment of choice, Yi Lin slowly turned around and prepared to leave.

In fact, Yi Lin is not worried about missing this "drama".

Even if the body is really taken away in "pathfinding mode", the worst case scenario is that you can just run back to the rooftop and choose again.

Well, everything comes from the heart.

"That classmate, please stay."

Just when Yi Lin was about to leave, the woman not far away who was looking up at the sky suddenly looked at Yi Lin, looking at each other from a distance, pitifully.

really.

Yi Lin's footsteps stopped in place.

The opening of this scene seems like a scene from a bloody romance drama——

"I'm leaving."

"No, don't leave."

"I really want to leave."

"No, you don't."

"Okay, I choose to stay."

"You could have left."

"No! I won't leave!"

"..."

Yi Lin couldn't help but think of lines from a romantic ethics drama, and couldn't help but laugh.

At this time, there will be another heavy rain, which will be even more suitable for the occasion.

Yi Lin thought.

Yi Lin did not continue to think wildly.

The girl not far away has turned her head.

Her stunning appearance, clear and flawless eyes, slender eyebrows that seemed to be frowned, and eyes that seemed to contain infinite words, made people unable to help but refuse.

"Is something wrong?"

The girl smiled slightly and said, "My name is Marisa. Actually, I have been paying attention to you for a long time."

"oh."

"..."

The atmosphere became strangely awkward.

Marisa added: "I am also a student in Class 2 of the third year, and I am sitting...in the front row."

Yi Lin smiled and said, "Sorry, I didn't pay attention."

"..."

[Marissa is a little angry. 】

[I'm angry why I met such a stupid head. 】

[But your straight-man-like conversational style aroused Marisa's interest. 】

[She is not interested in ordinary boys. 】

[Explanation, you are unusual. 】

[Marissa decided to try to have deeper communication with you. 】

Oda Mai looked at the conversation between the two people strangely.

But out of trust in Yi Lin's "insidiousness", Oda Mai finally held back and did not take out a knife and slash at that face.

Well, I'll cut it later.

Oda Mai happily made the decision.

She now regards everything in Styx Junior High School as "monsters". According to Oda Mai's logic, there are no monsters that cannot be killed.

On the rooftop.

Marisa smiled and extended an invitation to Yi Rin.

"Want to come over and chat?"

Yi Lin raised her eyebrows and did not refuse: "Okay."

At the same time, he quickly sent a message to Oda Mai.

Yi Lin and Marisa stood side by side. From a distance, they looked like a couple trying to resist but welcoming.

Marisa looked at the sky again.

Yi Lin also kept her head silent.

More than ten seconds later.

Marisa finally couldn't help it and asked, "Hey, do you know what color the sky is?"

Options appeared in front of Yi Lin's eyes.

[A. The protective color of love. 】

[B. The color of your eyes. 】

[C. The same sky looks different in everyone’s eyes. 】

Yi Lin was a little confused.

Such an obvious trap, how innocent is Hanhan to step into it?

Could it be that he thought he was playing a Galgame to capture the heroine?

It's not that simple, right?

With doubts, Yi Lin simply ignored all options.

"black."

Marisa looked at Yi Lin in surprise.

Yi Lin explained: "Or maybe it's white. Isn't it obvious? You can't see it unless you're blind."

Marisa: "..."

Suddenly, Marisa didn't know how to continue the conversation.

The conversation between handsome men and beautiful women once again fell into awkward silence.

This time, it was Yi Lin who broke the silence.

"Since you ask this kind of question, there are only two possibilities."

"One, you are showing off."

"Two, you think the 'sky' you see in front of you is not the real 'sky'."

"After a simple conversation, I found that the IQ levels of second graders and third graders are completely different."

"After I have temporarily ruled out the possibility of you being pretentious, I have also demonstrated one of my personal inferences."

Marisa slowly typed a question mark.

The conversation seemed to be progressing beyond Marisa's expectations.

This... doesn't follow common sense!

But one sentence made Marisa's calm eyes flash slightly.

Yi Lin carefully observed Marisa's reaction, took a step back without leaving any trace, and said with a smile: "Since you are eager to see the sky, can you please Miss Marisa tell me how to reach the real sky?"

"Hehehe...you want to know?"

Yi Lin said of course, "I think so."

"Then..." Marisa bit her lower lip lightly and glanced at Mai Oda who was standing by the door before she could speak. Xiafei's cheeks were a little more shy: "It's not very convenient here. I think... …”

Yi Lin quickly interrupted Marisa: "You don't have to think about it. I think it's very good here. Please hurry up."

"All right."

Marisa pouted, a little dissatisfied.

I saw her hands moving down a little bit.

Moved to the edge of the skirt.

Her hands were as gentle as a girl holding flowers, and she used two green-white fingers to lift the corners of her skirt.

One centimeter.

Two centimeters.

Pull the skirt up little by little.

Underneath the skirt, there seemed to be some huge secret.

Three centimeters.

Underneath the skirt, there seems to be a secret garden hidden.

Five centimeters.

Under the skirt, it seems...

Yi Lin suddenly moved.

No warning.

In an instant, Yi Lin flicked his finger, and an explosive bead that had already been grasped in his hand and turned into an "unstable explosive" by using the skill, popped out of his finger!

BiuBiuBiu!

At the same time, the card in Yi Lin's hand shattered, and the light flickered, turning into blood jasmine, and stabbed Marisa in the neck without any fancy.

The direction in which the explosive beads were shot was not somewhere on Marisa's body, nor anywhere else, but... the ground!

The moment Yi Lin took action, Oda Mai, who had been standing motionless in the distance, suddenly became filled with murderous intent. Her muscles tensed up, and she curled up like a cheetah, and seemed to be bent to the extreme. , a strong bow that is about to be ejected.

kill!

Both of them take action at the same time!

A look of surprise flashed in Marisa's eyes.

She never expected that the man in front of her would be so ruthless and do what he said.

She didn't even have time to lift up her skirt!

All this happened in the blink of an eye.

Yi Lin and Oda Mai had already planned it, and their movements were so fast that even their eyes could not react.

Marisa's hands were still lifting her skirt, and she had no time to think about it.

In the blink of an eye, Yi Lin's blood jasmine had penetrated deeply into Marisa's neck, and even brought out a drop of light red blood from the back of her neck.

At the same time, the explosive beads that Yi Lin shot towards the ground bounced off the ground strangely and hit the bottom of Marisa's skirt at a precise angle.

Yi Lin's expression did not change, she just smiled and said, "You are taking off your clothes too slowly, let me help you."

As he spoke, Yi Lin quickly pulled out Blood Jasmine from Marisa's neck.

Make a "pop" sound.

And the next second.

Marisa covered the wound on her neck in shock and anger. There was smelly blood oozing out from it. She didn't know whether it was because of Yi Lin's knife or because Marisa was too excited at the moment. No roars or screams could be made.

The explosive beads reached the bottom of the skirt.

Then--

Exploded.

boom!

And at this moment.

Oda Mai has finished charging up.

Take one step.

But Yi Lin could barely tell that in this seemingly one-step distance, there were clearly five sounds of stepping on the ground almost in succession from Oda Mai's feet.

Because the Oda dance is so fast, these five steps visually look like they only took one step.

In the blink of an eye, Oda Mai walked straight from the rooftop entrance to Marisa as if teleporting.

Marisa was already retreating because of Yi Lin's sudden attack, but the sudden explosion from under her skirt made Marisa's movements stop again.

Black smoke poured out from under her skirt!

It also smells weird.

And at this moment of pause, Marisa's originally beautiful pupils shrank into vertical lines, and a faint green light came out.

Marisa's eyes were shrouded in an unpretentious sword light.

Just one knife!

Oda dance——

Draw your sword!

"Ah, save your breath!"

Yi Lin then remembered Oda's sword dancing style and quickly reminded him.

But the words just left his mouth.

Yi Lin couldn't help but shake her head: "It's too late."

The snow-white sword light turned into a slender line of light and passed through Marisa's neck with incomparable precision.

Click.

The long sword returns to its sheath.

Oda Mai has re-arranged her stance for the second sword.

Draw the sword to chop. Each time you draw the sword, only make one cut.

Of course, you can also pull it out again, cut it again, pull it out again, cut it again, and the cycle is endless.

As long as Oda Mai is strong enough.

This was not the first time Yi Lin witnessed Oda dancing with a sword.

Every time Yilin felt that Oda Wu's sword-wielding posture was full of strange beauty, two points and one line, clean and neat, without unnecessary fancy movements.

After Oda Wu swung the sword, until it was sheathed, a thin line of blood appeared on Marisa's neck.

Perhaps this was fate. Oda Mai and Yi Lin agreed to fight, but they both aimed at each other's neck, and they seemed to have a special liking for this part.

Marisa's eyes widened and her whole body stiffened.

The wound on her neck and the explosion of her skirt seemed to have severely damaged Marisa.

Three seconds later.

Marisa's head with a frozen expression suddenly fell off her neck, and two pillars of blood suddenly spurted out from the cross section of her neck, resembling a fountain.

The next moment, Marisa's body, which had lost her head, also fell limply to the ground, making no sound.

Oda Mai seemed to have just done an insignificant thing and stood quietly.

After "killing" Marisa.

In front of Yi Lin's eyes, the narration appeared again.

[You are crazy and have personally brought a perfect ending to this encounter that has not yet had time to tell a story. 】

"..."

Yilin stared at Marisa's "corpse" with her head and body separated.

The bottom of her skirt was a mess.

Oda Mai glanced at Yi Lin expressionlessly.

It seems that there are some things that I don’t know whether to say or not.

Oda Mai had no idea what Yi Lin was planning.

She is just responsible for killing monsters.

Now the monsters have been chopped down.

Oda Mai turned around and prepared to leave.

And suddenly.

Yi Lin smiled: "Why are you leaving so quickly?"

Oda Mai paused, but her expression remained unchanged: "Otherwise?"

"Isn't it still warm?"

hiss.

Oda Mai took a breath and looked at Yi Lin in surprise.

Yi Lin ignored Oda Mai's thoughts at the moment.

Just in a medium voice, he whispered to Marisa's body: "Since it's still warm."

"Then, just... kill it again."

Guaguaguagua——

In an instant!

When Yi Lin said those words.

Marisa's headless body began to shake suddenly.

Almost at the same time, from the bottom of Marisa's messy skirt and the cross section of her neck, red and white pieces of flesh suddenly squirmed and burst out of her body.

The hideous and weird-shaped piece of meat condensed into two long snake-like tentacles in the blink of an eye, biting towards Oda Mai and Yi Lin in two directions.

That's right.

Just... bite.

On the head of the tentacle made of pieces of meat, there was a huge mouth with no eyes, no nose, no ears, only a big cracked mouth, with sticky teeth between the opening and closing of the mouth. The thick saliva stretched into threads, as if they were so greedy that their bodies were drooling continuously.

"Partial activation·Locust feet!"

Yi Lin was already prepared.

In fact, when Marisa fell to the ground and Yilin didn't gain any chaos points, he kept an eye on it.

Although Marisa's head may not be counted on his head.

But a certain conclusion drawn from the clues Yi Lin had so far told him that this cute girl named Marisa should not die so easily under the attack of the two.

If it were an ordinary human being, it would have been separated by far, and there was no other possibility.

But... what if it's not a human being?

That may not be the case.

In the blink of an eye.

Yilin's jumping ability was horribly strengthened. With one step, Yilin nimbly jumped into the air, easily avoiding the sudden attack from the bloody mouth.

Although Oda Mai's reaction was a little slower, she kept the gesture of drawing the sword at all times, allowing her to react in any situation. Oda Wu's face was as dark as water. Facing the weird and disgusting monster, there was a hint of vague excitement on his face. His right hand shook violently, and a blade of light flew directly into the bloody mouth.

hide?

That doesn't exist.

As long as it's a monster that can be cut down, why hide?

The logic of Oda dance is very simple.

In mid-air.

Yi Lin lowered his head, stared at Oda Mai's movements, condensed another needle, and inserted it into another part of the head.

"Local activation·super memory."

at the same time.

Psychokinetic perception enveloped the entire audience.

Within this ten-meter radius, everything is under Yi Lin's control.

Yi Lin smiled softly in a voice that only she could hear.

"Sorry, Mai Oda."

With maximum jumping power, Yi Lin fell down and jumped up again...

Oda Mai had no time to care about anything else. The moment she wanted to put away the knife, her eyes narrowed.

That bloody mouth, regardless of the risk of being cut open, bitten Oda Mai's knife with a pair of strong white teeth.

The other end.

Yi Lin jumped into the air again...

At the critical moment, the corner of Oda Mai's mouth curled up in a faint arc without any trace, and her left hand was seen reaching into the void, and she took out a second knife from the storage space!

It was a long knife with an old bandage wrapped around the scabbard.

The handle of the knife was as scarlet as blood and seemed to be solidified amber, full of evil aura.

"Oh? The second knife?"

Yi Lin fell from the air again and jumped quickly...

Seeing that the second long-necked head couldn't bite Yi Lin, it bitterly gave up its target and attacked with two ends. One end bit Oda Mai's knife, and the other end bit Oda Mai's head.

"Two days of first class, quarter moon!"

The second sword glow came uninvited.

Yi Lin jumped up and down again...

Oda Mai: "..."

Two minutes later.

"Are you still dancing?"

Oda Mai put away the second sword and looked at Yi Lin expressionlessly.

Yi Lin finally stopped jumping up and down, her thigh muscles aching.

Yi Lin explained seriously: "I am analyzing the action patterns of these monsters."

Oda Mai... believed it.

She nodded and slowly lowered her right hand on her waist.

Yi Lin recalled the second sword that Oda Mai had pulled out just now.

I remember that during the Huating City incident, Oda Mai once said that her family lost a spirit-possessed weapon inherited from her family, so she chased it to Huating City because of some clues, but in the end it was an oolong incident for her.

After what happened in Huating City, Oda Wu hurriedly left Huating City in search of a knife, and Yi Lin had no time to ask for details.

It seems like... that evil long sword is the "family spirit-possessed weapon" that Mai Oda said?

At the time, Yi Lin thought Oda Mai was just talking.

Yi Lin didn't ask any more questions.

It is taboo to inquire about the abilities and equipment attributes of apostles.

In addition, Yi Lin had been paddling the whole second half of the course, so he was embarrassed to ask such a question.

Finished, call it a day.

Yi Lin carefully observed Marisa's body cut into pieces by Oda Mai, and frowned slightly.

If all the students in the school were this kind of monster, it would be a bit troublesome.

Moreover, Yi Rin also confirmed just now that there is no strange "piece of flesh" behind Marisa's back like Yi Rin and Oda Mai's back.

In other words, that thing is the unique "body structure" of these transfer students from the second class of the third year.

If you want to figure out the function of that piece of meat, unless you find someone to take the initiative to dig it out, everything will only remain in inference.

On the other hand, Oda Mai was very calm.

As long as the monster has a health bar, there is no monster that cannot be killed.

"Let's not discuss what kind of monsters these are. Their heads don't seem to be their weak points."

Yi Lin said nonsense.

Oda Mai nodded slightly and agreed.

Yi Lin leaned down and looked at Marisa's body.

"Although we don't have the conditions to dissect them in detail now, some of the structures inside their bodies are similar to ours."

Yi Lin lowered his voice: "The fatal injury should be the knife in the heart. When you slashed it with two knives at the same time, its many movements also protected the heart position intentionally or unintentionally."

Oda Mai hesitated for a moment.

Quickly summed it up: "When chopped, the meat quality is okay."

Yi Lin: "..."

yes.

Although Oda Mai's description was a bit weird, Yi Lin agreed.

If you are alone, as long as you are prepared in advance and don't randomly choose [options], you will not be easily tricked to death.

Han Han died entirely because he was too stupid...stupid.

The monster transformed behind Marisa also has obvious weaknesses.

If your agility is not too weak, it is not difficult to avoid the bites of those mouths.

That's why Yi Lin paddled freely and didn't worry about Oda Mai holding a grudge.

Didn't you see that when Oda Mai was killing monsters, the excited expression on his face was like taking medicine and it was difficult to hide it.

but.

What if the entire school's students turned into such monsters in the blink of an eye?

Thinking of this, Yi Lin had a headache.

He was almost certain that the terrifying monster hidden under the student's skin, the overwhelming sea of ​​monsters, was the deepest crisis in this escape trial.

If we don't find an escape route as soon as possible, maybe at a certain point, or when a certain triggering condition is reached, all the students will turn into ghosts and pounce on the transfer students.

At that time, if you want to escape, the difficulty will increase exponentially.

Until then.

It can be considered that the mystery of Han Han's death has finally been solved.

If Yi Lin guessed correctly, Marisa lifted up her skirt directly in front of Han Han, and Han Han was in a state of confusion, and his head was instantly eaten off by the mouth emerging from the bottom of the skirt.

My poor silly classmate, a moment of silence.

One thing that was a little strange to Yilin was that she didn't see Marisa perform the "magic" she learned in class. I don't know if it was because Oda Mai's movements were too crisp.

Or... it's too troublesome to perform magic, so why not just follow your instinct and use "bite"?

Well, quite possibly.

Oda Mai glanced at Yi Lin again and signaled what to do with the body on the ground.

Yi Lin smiled and said: "Did you forget when Han Han fell from the building? Someone will take care of the body."

After saying that, Yi Lin was ready to leave.

Oda Mai thought about it, and it seemed to make sense, so she stopped worrying and followed Yi Lin to leave the rooftop.

On the stairs.

Yi Lin glanced at the remaining time of the Cute Rabbit BUFF on the apostle's panel and smiled slightly.

"It's time, we're almost done exploring, it's time to find the exit."

As he spoke, an ancient compass appeared silently in Yi Lin's hand.

…

Half an hour later.

Some students discovered Marisa's broken body.

The students who discovered the body were shocked when they saw it.

But after a few seconds.

Tick ​​tock.

Tick ​​tock.

Tick ​​tock.

All the students drooled with desire, and green light suddenly appeared in their eyes.

"It's Marisa from Class 2, Grade 3!"

"How did she die?"

"do you died?"

"The teacher said that if you don't move like this, you are dead."

"Should we report the teacher?"

"It seems...you want it?"

"But, it looks delicious?"

"It seems to be still warm."

"Can I eat it?"

"Can I eat it?"

"Can...eat?"

"But this...is against school rules, right?"

"But as long as we eat clean enough and no one finds out, it won't be a violation of school rules."

"Now, are you right?"

"Marissa?"

"..."
