#273 - Angry Angel
Lin Yi's heart trembled, but he no longer had the mind to criticize Liangzi for making reckless flags, because his heart was already tired of trembling... …
This road is truly one wave after another. Last time he took that non-existent fork in the road, then ate a move of "Get lost, gramps", scrambling back in a disheveled state, but this time he almost didn't make it back... …
He couldn't help but wonder, if he couldn't make it back in this state, and his bodily functions were still there, would he become a vegetable?
Speaking of which, could it be that those patients in reality who become mentally deranged and eventually turn into vegetables are all highly perceptive people who triggered a special hallucination and whose consciousness couldn't return to their bodies?
He lightly shook his head, unwilling to waste any more brain cells here.
There's still an enraged angel ahead, and he doesn't know how to deal with it yet... …
"Speaking of which... … the notice board in front of the gymnasium doesn't seem to have anything about the enraged angel!"
He thought about it and understood... … It's the same as how the rules for the test subjects wouldn't mention the angel statue.
Test subjects will never encounter the angel statue, and those who do won't survive, so there's no need to write about it... … Ah, wait a minute!!!
"Could it really be like this... …? !"
Lin Yi carefully reviewed the test subject rules in his mind... …
The rules related to the angel statue appear in the "Gymnasium Rules", and their content is:
【If you see an angel statue placed on the ground by who-knows-who in the gymnasium, please rush to the office immediately, hold your student ID tightly, push the door open, and then close your eyes and tell the PE teacher the situation.】
【Never ask the PE students for help when you find the angel statue.】
"In other words, although this interpretation may be somewhat distorted and excessive, could it be that the only solution for test subjects encountering the angel statue is [in the gymnasium, then immediately ask the PE teacher for help]?"
"Moreover... … the other rules all have obvious hints of 'being tracked' in this regard, but when it comes to the angel statue, the general idea is only 'once you find it, immediately do something'... …"
"It's like saying that the enraged angel won't give you a chance to 'be tracked'... …"
"Damn, is it going to attack right away? !"
Please, can't it have some sense of ritual like the grinning angel?
I have to say, when Lin Yi thought of this, he felt a bit of black humor... …
Soon, they arrived at a position relatively close to the bushes under this sloppy sun shower.
Lin Yi's heart jumped up again.
He subconsciously hoped that the enraged angel was just standing there and not targeting him.
Just then, he suddenly heard Wei Liang, who was in front, exclaim: "Aiya! What is this... …"
Before he finished speaking, Wei Liang seemed to have stepped on something slippery. After staggering a few times, he immediately lost his balance and, driven by his center of gravity, ran down the cobblestone path towards the gymnasium below the mountain... …
"Old Lin, be careful — — Ah ~ ~ ~ ~"
"What the heck is going on?" When Lin Yi reacted, Wei Liang had already glided along the ground for more than ten meters, giving him a sense of visual déjà vu with a ghostly speed force, leaving him dumbfounded.
He quickly glanced at the original position where he was standing, and this look actually revealed that there was a puddle of... … oil there.
Wait... … how could there be oil out of nowhere here? !
Lin Yi was stunned for about three seconds, his brain hadn't turned yet, but the early warning mechanism in his subconscious had already reacted — — Liangzi must have triggered some kind of trick in his passive ability!
As a guy who has maxed out his skill in tricks, Wei Liang's early warning and reaction to danger seem to be engraved in his biological instinct!
And at this time, the only existence that can threaten them can only be... …
The enraged angel!
This logic seems to take a few turns, but in fact Lin Yi only spent a moment of stunned effort to sort it out, and just as he reacted, some images flashed violently in front of his eyes. These images were none other than the scene of the bushes in the green belt he had just passed!
In that flashing picture, he saw the enraged angel hiding behind the bushes. The originally empty eyeballs suddenly twitched as if convulsing, and then the stiff neck turned mechanically, and some fine cracks appeared on the white plaster-like skin due to the twisting, and some white powder rustled off... …
And the position that the enraged angel was looking at was his back!
Lin Yi's scalp was tingling as if struck by lightning, and all the hairs on his body stood up as if he were being stared at by a fierce tiger. He noticed the details he had just ignored!
Before the grinning angels attack, only the target being attacked can see their existence!
And if this is not the only mechanism of the grinning angels, but the common mechanism of the angel statues, then when he sees the statue of the enraged angel, the underlying logic is not "he saw the enraged angel", but "the enraged angel launched an attack reminder to him and was accepted by him"!
"Just like the grinning angel in the stairwell holding an hourglass will appear with its back to Maozi, bowing and covering its face before attacking, the enraged angel will also appear in a similar form before officially launching an attack!"
"It's as if it deliberately gave the attacker a reaction time!"
"In that case, Liangzi's oiling his feet is because he also realized that he was locked on by the enraged angel? !"
Damn... … isn't this reaction like having X-ray vision and a script on?
Is this still a human reaction? !
"I'm going, Liangzi, wait for me!" Lin Yi immediately took off and rushed out. Just a few seconds after he rushed out, a small, gray-white figure shrouded in blood-red steam landed at his position with terrifying potential energy like a cannonball.
In the waves intertwined with blood-colored steam and white mist, the small enraged angel slowly stood up, its empty gray-white eyeballs trembled constantly like stuck needles, and then slowly locked on Lin Yi's back... …
【... … lyset ... …】
【lyset ... …】
Its legs were separated, squatting slightly as if in a horse stance. The sculpture's legs swelled with stone-like muscle lines, and the blood-colored steam and white mist surrounding it twisted and surrounded it like two spirals. The small stones at its feet trembled and rolled non-stop, giving it a feeling of surging breath.
The next moment, it exerted force with its legs, and the whole child rose into the sky, drawing a beautiful parabola, and landed towards Lin Yi's position!
As it moved, even the sun shower seemed to tilt its trajectory, showing a tendency to be drawn in by the cyclone surrounding it.
"Huff—"
Lin Yi heard the first impact behind him, followed by the sound of rushing wind. Needless to say, he knew the Enraged Angel was coming. Under this pressure, he clenched his teeth, his throat slightly rolling, and his whole body began to glow red, emitting a low roar like a revving engine!
Just as the Enraged Angel was about to hit him, a layer of sky-blue steam suddenly burst out from his body. His footsteps faltered for a moment, and then his entire being flickered out of the way like an Asura Flash!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh…"
A series of afterimages seemed to appear behind him, and the Enraged Angel landed where his afterimages were.
"Thud!"
The Enraged Angel, carrying a thick impact force, landed there, and the surging power shook the nearby green belt, causing it to rustle.
"What terrifying power! Wouldn't being hit by that mean instant death?"
The powerful shock traveled along the ground to Lin Yi's feet, causing his heart to tremble. He quickly lowered his center of gravity and rushed towards the gymnasium along the cobblestone road.
He was already very close to the gymnasium, and Wei Liang was even closer to reaching it.
"The only method mentioned to deal with the Angel Sculpture is the 'Gymnasium Rules,' but the premise is 'seeing the Angel Sculpture inside the gymnasium.' My situation doesn't meet this condition, but it doesn't matter…"
"Supply and demand can exist from the beginning, or they can be created out of nothing. If the conditions aren't met, I have to create them!"
Lin Yi had already thought of it. He would lead the Enraged Angel into the gymnasium. This seemingly self-destructive act of bringing the wolf into the house and harming the sports students was actually the best solution at the moment!
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!
Why?
Because if the Enraged Angel didn't enter the gymnasium, then both he and the sports students inside would be fine.
If the Enraged Angel really followed him into the gymnasium, then he would "see" the Enraged Angel again, actively fulfilling the condition of "seeing the Angel Sculpture inside the gymnasium," and then immediately rush into the sports office to seek the help of the sports teacher!
He believed in the "Gymnasium Rules" and believed that doing so would definitely be fine.
As for bringing the wolf into the house?
That wasn't important at all, because to be attacked by a wolf, one must first discover the wolf in their "cognition."
"It's settled!"
After verifying the logic, Lin Yi no longer had any scruples. He directly locked onto the gymnasium with his eyes, and then unleashed his speed and sprinted.
When he ran with all his might, those faint sky-blue vapors floated on his body like a layer of light mist, giving him a gentle sense of affinity for everything around him. It wasn't quite as smooth as a fish in water, but it was close enough.
He felt that his speed had been greatly improved, but he didn't know how much. He only felt that he was catching up with Wei Liang's figure at a speed visible to the naked eye. This strange speed was like that of a… green-aproned cook quickly pulling closer to a student fleeing the cafeteria in the shadow area.
The Enraged Angel, with blood-colored steam and white mist intertwined, slowly stood up stiffly. Its trembling eyeballs "rolled" and locked onto Lin Yi's back, and then it took off again, this time with a larger arc, rushing towards Lin Yi like an intercontinental missile.
For Lin Yi at this moment, the gymnasium was already within reach, but the missile-like Enraged Angel was still following him like a maggot attached to bone, giving him a huge sense of pressure.
But strangely, when the Enraged Angel approached a certain position around him, that terrifying speed visibly slowed down, as if it was delayed by an unknown and invisible force, while Lin Yi's speed did not decrease at all, and he once again escaped from the Enraged Angel's hands like a string of afterimages…
However, whether this seemingly spacetime-defying thing was a scene Lin Yi saw when he accelerated in an instant, or a scene that actually happened in reality, he did not know.
The only thing that could be confirmed was that Lin Yi felt that under his full-speed run, the surrounding environment seemed to have undergone some subtle visual changes, like a Flash wrapped in the Speed Force, with the world he saw having a strange filter.
"Could it be that I observed a 'layer'… ?"
Lin Yi wasn't sure if his idea was correct, nor did he intend to verify it, because he was less than 50 meters away from the gymnasium. He needed to solve the immediate predicament first, and then he would have plenty of time to think about the problem.
At this time, Wei Liang had already run into the gymnasium, and the next one would be Lin Yi.
Just as Lin Yi was about to approach the gymnasium, a call suddenly appeared in his ear.
"Student."
It seemed like someone was calling him.
His footsteps paused slightly, and he subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice.
But there wasn't a single person's shadow there.
Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly thought it was bad. He must have heard something he shouldn't have heard again.
And that direction seemed to be… a certain road outside the gymnasium?
"Strange, what's going on with that road?"
Beside the main entrance of the gymnasium, there was indeed a road, and even the construction style of that road was almost the same as the architectural style of the gymnasium itself, but he didn't know where it led.
But judging from the construction trend of that road, it seemed to be some kind of… staircase?
And the call just now came from the staircase on that road, as if someone was standing on a staircase corner outside the gymnasium, calling him softly.
It's just that the timbre of that voice was very unfamiliar, unlike the voice of anyone in his memory, and it didn't call his name either. It must have been just a tentative call.
After experiencing so much torment, Lin Yi's "immunity" had also increased somewhat. Apart from the initial shock, he wouldn't be too affected by this kind of call.
[After arriving at the gymnasium, please swipe your student ID to obtain the "Gymnasium Rules" from the automatic borrowing and returning machine at the entrance, and enter the gymnasium through the main entrance. Do not take other doors or stairs.]
"Is this the 'staircase' mentioned on the notice board?" Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat, as if something resonated with the notice board.
He was still wondering what staircase it was, but now he suddenly realized that it was this staircase, but why would there be a staircase outside the gymnasium?!
Thank you to book friend "usjdnshhs" for the reward!!
