Chapter 256 "This world... is broken and battered..."

Lin Yi suddenly woke up—[Must not reveal the student ID!]

So he trembled, took a deep breath, and quickly imagined in his mind any kind of memory that could be quickly evoked and self-anchored...

But no matter how he recalled, those bizarre and rampant laughter echoed hauntingly in his ears. Such sounds floated around him like suspended bandages, not tightening, but waiting for him to crash into them himself.

He couldn't crash into them.

Touching such things would trap him like a snare, entangling him tighter and tighter until it strangled him to death.

He tried to recall the countless H manga he had just flipped through, but he hadn't looked closely at all. Relying solely on rough lines was useless.

He somewhat understood why Wei Liang still needed to peep through cracks—because peeping through cracks could make him deeply impressed with the content of H manga, so that he wouldn't be as helpless as he was now at critical moments.

"Eh, wait... Liangzi?!".

At the critical moment, Lin Yi was still inspired by Wei Liang!

"Liangzi, Liangzi... classroom... classmate, athletic classmate... PE class, PE class, PE class... swimming pool... Boss!"

"Boss!!"

The scene of Boss Lei Oufi's flying kick suddenly flashed in Lin Yi's mind...

In desperation, he still had to believe in Boss!

But that wasn't enough. He only had images in his mind, but the eerie sneers in his ears hadn't disappeared...

So Lin Yi understood.

The H manga images that flashed before his eyes just now, especially the battle scenes from 'Ikki Tousen' that he had seriously watched before, were superimposed on Boss...

Damn... the feeling is coming...

Lin Yi instantly felt his beast blood, no, his Qi and blood surging. The explosive fighting scenes between young girls and mature women instantly occupied his mind. What sneers, what wind noises, all disappeared. All that remained before his eyes was the scene of Boss exploding with Qi, bursting clothes, and wielding a Green Dragon Crescent Blade to fight five opponents...

Gradually, Lin Yi felt that the time was right, and quickly added a fatal "fantasy".

He controlled his fantasy to shift the perspective to the front of "Boss", and then, he saw "Boss" send an opponent away with a flying kick, followed by a somersault kick that took away two more, and then turned a cool side face...

"Liangzi, lend me a hand!!!"

Lin Yi roared in his heart, and after "Boss" turned around... it was Wei Liang's face.

"I... Pfft—"

The strong sense of contrast instantly shattered Lin Yi's fantasy, but at the same time, it also took away the terrifying hallucinations that were unusually uncomfortable and impossible to escape...

Lin Yi saw everything around him slowly opening up like flower petals being peeled away. The real classroom bookshelf area appeared before him little by little, like peeling an onion.

He's back... he's really back...

"Huff, huff, huff..."

Lin Yi threw the book in his hand aside and sat on the ground, breathing heavily. He was already drenched in sweat, and his back was cold. He didn't know if it was the after-effects of being trapped in that hallucination and almost unable to extricate himself, or because he saw Wei Liang's face stretched on Boss's devilish figure...

But it must be said that such an imagination was indeed extremely imaginative and extremely explosive.

"This despicable trick... can only be used this once. If Liangzi finds out, my innocence will really be unsustainable..."

Not to mention what Boss would think of him if he found out...

His face would probably be trampled by Boss?

"Hiss..."

Lin Yi shuddered violently and stopped thinking about these things.

"Speaking of which... the clues in these H manga should need to be combined to be read... like a jigsaw puzzle."

No, perhaps it's more appropriate to describe it as an assembled electric toy.

With fewer parts, it can't move, but if all the parts are assembled, or as many as possible, then it can move or run slowly!

And once the information on a certain day is complete enough, hallucinations like the one he had just now can appear.

But in order to prevent hallucinations from going too deep, you need to anchor yourself in advance, so... you need to use something like H manga that can evoke human desire.

"Perhaps this is why they chose to use this to communicate... otherwise, if they used all kinds of books on odd tales, geography, etc. to record information, it would be really easy for problems to occur in the anchoring stage."

Lin Yi understood.

He glanced at his watch.

10:12.

It seemed that not much time had passed, but he didn't plan to continue reading H manga anymore.

Other reasons were secondary, mainly because the consumption was too much to keep up with.

So he reached out to get the H manga, but a gust of wind for no reason fluttered the pages of the H manga, flipping it to the title page.

The title page of the H manga was a pure black background with a few pure white chat bubbles in the style of Togashi Yoshihiro, with fragmented sentences in the bubbles.

"This world... is broken and battered..."

"The time left for you..."

"Is running out..."

This was a cyberpunk-style H manga, roughly titled 'Cyber Utopia: Combat Ecstasy'. The protagonist was a semi-mechanized girl with a slightly unstable mind.

The story in the book was roughly about this girl fighting and making love while collecting spoils to strengthen herself, and finally blowing up all kinds of strange creatures in the cyberpunk world in the name of love, and by the way, rendering a very avant-garde concept, comparable to the doomsday Platonic love view of cybernetics...

"Become a part of me, fight with me!"

"Revive on my body in the form of parts! My—lover!!"

Of course, this was the story told on the book cover. Lin Yi didn't pay much attention to the content of this comic and just put it back on the bookshelf.

By the time Lin Yi left the bookshelf area, there were very few experience students in the classroom. Most of them had gone to the cafeteria to eat.

Among those experience students, there were actually a few survivors from the same batch as Li Huiyuan, but compared to the carefree laughter when they entered the school on the afternoon of May 7th and the nonchalant appearance of not realizing the seriousness of the matter on May 8th, their eyes had already lost their luster today, gradually turning into that kind of closed-off self, with numb eyes.

But what Lin Yi found unbelievable was that Song Rentou was still sitting in the corner of the classroom, craning his neck to look at the scenery outside the window, as if the scenery there was particularly good.

Shan Nan was fiddling with some small parts, seemingly assembling some kind of precision electronic instrument.

This made him even more confused. There were almost no electronic signals in the campus area. What was Shan Nan tinkering with?

But he quickly withdrew his gaze. For Shan Nan, who could pull out a set of exoskeleton armor, with his existing technological cognition, he really couldn't predict what Shan Nan would pull out next.

But what was certain was that the thing he was assembling must be a key piece of equipment in his plan.

Seemingly feeling that someone was watching him, Shan Nan raised his head and glanced towards Lin Yi. He saw Lin Yi's back, and at this time, Lin Yi had already walked to Wei Liang's side.

"..." Shan Nan was thoughtful. Although he had only entered the school yesterday, he was still somewhat curious about Lin Yi and Wei Liang, who had entered the school before him and could still have light in their eyes after experiencing a few days of life.

Even the most normal person will become somewhat abnormal after entering the school district. Conversely, a trainee who maintains a normal mental state at all times seems very out of place.

But this is only limited to curiosity. He lowered his head again to fiddle with the parts at hand, then took out a glass-like object and assembled it onto the device.

On the other side, Wei Liang looked at Lin Yi, who was packing his schoolbag, and asked in surprise, "Old Lin, why are you packing your backpack just to eat a meal?"

Lin Yi didn't hide anything and said directly, "Teacher Lin told me I'm doomed and asked me to go to the gymnasium after I finish eating."

"Then isn't this the last meal before you go?" Wei Liang retorted.

"..." Lin Yi was speechless for a moment, "So, do you want to join me on my final journey?"

"Yes, you've invited me, so I have to go!" Wei Liang had already returned the book while waiting for Lin Yi, and directly picked up his backpack and put it on his back, "I'm waiting to take advantage of you to go to the gymnasium to find the boss!"

"Then let's go." Lin Yi smiled. For some reason, he felt much safer taking Wei Liang along.

Pushing open the classroom door, the air inside and outside exchanged, forming a cool breeze that blew past Lin Yi's ear.

[Lin Yi...]

In the wind, it was as if a voice was calling him.

He suddenly shuddered, but found that everything around him was normal.

The newest and fastest novels are first published at 69shu.com!

The sunlight outside was very good, shining directly into the corridor, casting his shadow into the classroom.

"What's wrong?" Wei Liang asked.

Lin Yi said uncertainly, "I seemed to hear someone calling me just now..."

"I was calling you, handsome!" Wei Liang said speechlessly, "Let's go, let's eat!"

"Oh... okay." Lin Yi closed the door behind him, but strangely felt that his shadow seemed to be half a beat slower.

He suddenly turned his head.

The shadow was normal.

"Damn, Old Lin, are you okay? Don't scare me with your jumpiness!" Wei Liang couldn't help but look around in horror.

Lin Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "Alas... it's my fault. Teacher Lin said that I've been tainted by something unclean, so he asked me to go to the gymnasium after I finish eating."

"Could it be... did you step on dog poop?" Wei Liang hesitated.

"..." Lin Yi was speechless for a moment and quickly said, "Not that kind, it's a bit of a metaphysical kind..."

"Buddy, are you okay? Aren't you a believer in science?" Wei Liang retorted.

"Can't I change my mind?" Lin Yi spread his hands and said, "After experiencing this for so long, whoever talks to me about science again, I'll give them two bangs on the head."

Wei Liang curled his lips and teased, "It's hard to imagine that a staunch materialist like you would suddenly be turned around."

Lin Yi thought to himself, I don't want to either... but do you know what I've been through these past few days? Haven't you played parkour in the cafeteria with me?

"Hey, seeing is believing..." he said weakly, "No, so you knew from the beginning?"

"Knew what?" Wei Liang widened his eyes and asked in confusion.

"Knew that this place is unscientific!" Lin Yi said.

"Hahahaha..." Wei Liang let out a maniacal laugh like Jin Guanzhang, and then said, "Alas, the real society will only be more insane. Is it scientific that a female classmate who is one year younger than you can be your stepmother?"

"Uh... that's not comparable, right?"

"Whether it's scientific or not doesn't matter!" Wei Liang waved his hand, "No matter what happens, I'm mentally prepared. Think about it yourself, what school can give you 30,000 for a seven-day experience?"

"Haunted houses require you to spend money to enter! This school is paying you to enter!"

Lin Yi's expression became stern, thinking that Liangzi had changed his tone and was planning to reveal everything to me?

Sure enough, Wei Liang continued, "So, there must be dirty things here..."

"Have you heard that some places have inherently bad feng shui, with heavy Yin energy, places where corpses are often found, so they need some young and passionate people to suppress it. This school... you see it's surrounded by mountains, with no village in front and no shop behind... it must be a bit evil!"

"Then you still dare to come back as a repeat customer? And you didn't even think to pull me back?" Lin Yi said.

Wei Liang curled his lips: "Have you forgotten? Young Master Tian wanted to come and play, and you also wanted to earn some money. The remaining few also felt that they were idle anyway, so they came! As for me... I came to show off!"

"Who would have thought that nothing happened last time, but something would happen this time?"

Lin Yi was stunned by what Wei Liang said.

No, what about the agreed-upon reveal? How did you pull a Tai Chi and circle back to 'You don't know anything'? Liangzi, you're really relying on it.

Sure enough, Wei Liang took a few deep breaths, then patted Lin Yi's shoulder and said, "Don't worry! With me, the dignified Fushēng Wei Liang Heavenly Venerate, I can definitely turn bad luck into good fortune!"

"I believe you, Liangzi, how about I hug your thigh instead?" Lin Yi tentatively asked.

"Get lost! I'll hug your thigh, and then, with my mascot attribute, won't we be able to achieve positive from negative, wouldn't that be wonderful?" Wei Liang clapped his hands.

Lin Yi: "..."

Okay... in fact, Wei Liang didn't say one thing wrong, and that is that he and Lin Yi are both negative.

Lin Yi sighed. Liangzi's words are a mixture of truth and falsehood, and he always gets stuck on the edge of the truth. He has to spray more nitrogen to drift away from the topic... it's really reliable.

The two walked along the cobblestone road, and soon they were about to walk out of the teaching building area.

[Lin Yi...]

In Lin Yi's ear, he suddenly heard such a sound again. That faint feeling seemed to drift from some closed place with an inexplicable wind...

Like... the wind blowing from that scarred place, full of old bookshelves and broken windows...

Those things that were hanged by chains, half-dead and half-alive, seemed to entangle him.

"Gulp..."

He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and slowly turned around in the direction of the inexplicable wind, looking at the teaching building behind him.

The teaching building was still there, not far or near.

The surrounding green belt had overlapping light and shadows, illuminated by the sun, not illuminated by the sun, looming, floating with mist... layer upon layer, as if covered with countless veils.

The sound of the wind came, and the green belt stirred up the forest waves, rustling.

But at this moment, the seemingly unrelated green belt and teaching building seemed to merge with each other, showing an extremely strange overlapping state of movement and stillness.

The teaching building stood there, but the green belt around the teaching building seemed to sway like seaweed. The clouds in the depths of the sky became thicker at some point, and the sunlight that fell down suddenly became much gloomy.

Looking from a distance, the silent teaching building gave him a feeling of sinking into the seabed.

The sunlight in the sea of clouds in the sky was like the waves on the sea, and the few rays of light that fell down were like the floating light thrown into the sea.

The further down, the more fragmented the light became, and when it reached the teaching building, only a depressing, dull, and dead atmosphere remained...

Extra 300 words, lest someone say that the cyberpunk section is just padding the word count. Sorry, I predicted it~ Jie Jie Jie!
