"I actually have a way..." Lin Yi looked at Chen Xue, "But whether it’s sending you to the Western Heaven or sending you to your rest, I’m not sure. If you’re willing to try, I..."
"Willing," Jin Jiuyao spoke first, staring intently at Lin Yi, a trace of strange fervor in his eyes.
Fervor was the emotion most prevalent in Jin Jiuyao’s eyes when he looked at Lin Yi tonight.
Lin Yi could clearly feel that Jin Jiuyao’s gaze at him was not quite normal, but he was not afraid. The threat Jin Jiuyao posed was minimal. Even if sothing did happen, could the threat be greater than those angel sculptures?
Instead, it was the Chen sisters, Chen Bing and Chen Xue, whose uniqueness Lin Yi noticed the mont he reached the lamppost.
The sisters were holding hands, and the supernatural power within them began to flow in a Möbius ring pattern, limited by the strength of their shell, always fluctuating below a certain threshold.
Lin Yi could sense the power condensed by Chen Bing and Chen Xue was strong, surpassing ordinary sports students, equivalent to that ho run Xu Shunkang hit during the "Banquet."
On Chen Bing and Chen Xue’s fingertips, Lin Yi could still see traces of supernatural power, and he speculated that their fingertips were releasing points, spreading it like a web, forming a pseudo-domain.
That strength could completely repel pseudo-human counterparts on a physical level, but physical attacks were the least significant part of the invasion stage.
Pseudo-human classmates, and even the higher-tier Graveyard of the Deceased, their physical strength was limited, overwheld by their near-infinite numbers. Once they initiated an attack, they would deepen their own contamination, not to ntion that nearly every non-human unit had a chant akin to cautions.
As for Lu Zhao, he himself didn’t have much intriguing elents for observation, but the secret pattern fire axe in his hand, filled with a juxtaposition of Stone Age and near-future cyber-tech aesthetics, caught his eye.
That thing seed like so fusion of technology and secret markings, with a hint of sports student secret mist, making him quite intrigued.
"Willing..." seeing Lin Yi’s attention seemingly shifted, Lu Zhao slowly spoke.
They had no hope of leaving, so they’d accept any thod Lin Yi proposed.
Staying here was zero, and whatever thod Lin Yi had, it wouldn’t be zero.
As long as it’s not zero, it’s worth trying.
So Lin Yi slowly raised his right hand, and in his palm, the secret mark emitted a sky-blue light. Then, as the light intertwined, the secret mark under his control beca... a chain.
"Clink clink clink..."
One end of the chain was held by Lin Yi, dropping naturally, weaving itself, forming circle after circle, drawing circles in place.
Seeing the secret mark in Lin Yi’s hand, Lu Zhao’s eyes widened, he exclaid, "A secret mark in your palm? You’re a sports student!"
"A sports student? I suppose." Lin Yi hesitated slightly, not expecting to be mistaken for a sports student, but on second thought, being one wasn’t a bad thing—at least it wasn’t "a nonexistent thing."
"Later, the three of us will go first. As for you all, once we’ve moved a distance away, hold onto the chain and follow us."
"Without any accidents, I’ll lead you to the lamppost by ’Teaching Building-001’..."
"If sothing unexpected happens, um... you’d better hope nothing unexpected happens."
Lin Yi looked at Lu Zhao and the others with the most calm smile he could muster.
But it was precisely this smile that sent a chill down Lu Zhao and the others’ spines. Even so, they could only grit their teeth and nod.
Lin Yi glanced at his watch.
20:38.
"It’s getting late, let’s set off." Saying that, Lin Yi handed the umbrella to Wei Shan, while he grasped the chain, locking it under the umbrella.
Wei Liang naturally followed.
However, as Lin Yi moved, the Graveyard of the Deceased, looming faintly in the mist, also started to move, with the sound of "rustle rustle... rustle rustle..." amidst the wind and rain.
"Not good, they’re moving too!" Seeing this, Chen Xue’s heart tensed, instinctively tightening her grip on Chen Bing’s hand.
"Stay quiet, follow obediently." Lin Yi’s voice ca from ahead.
Chen Xue imdiately pressed her lips tight, her gaze extending from the chain in Lin Yi’s hand down to the coil of chain at her feet.
With the movents of Lin Yi and the others, the coil of chain began to be retracted at a visible pace.
Seeing it was about ti, Lu Zhao said, "Let’s follow too, Little Jin, you go first..."
Jin Jiuyao had been itching to move. Seeing this, he imdiately grabbed the chain and started to follow Lin Yi and the others away from the lamppost of "Teaching Building-023."
"Little Bing, Little Xue, you two follow... I’ll go last," Lu Zhao said.
Chen Bing and Chen Xue exchanged a glance, then released their hold on each other’s hands.
When they no longer held hands, the supernatural power coursing within them loosened as if the link had been severed, and their domain dissipated.
Chen Bing and Chen Xue took hold of the chain one after the other and followed the group, while Lu Zhao watched their backs, a bizarre light flashed in his eyes without warning...
