Tian Bufan gently interrupted Lin Yi’s words: "What you’re talking about involves too many components..."
His expression remained as calm as a stroke: "Old Lin, think carefully, how many days have you been at school?"
"Do you even need to ask? Five days!" Lin Yi replied.
"In those five days, when did you make the greatest progress?"
"It was... last night, right?"
"Ever since you went to and from the Art Building, your ’adaptability’ intensity has been increasing as your cognition constantly expands, and your ’intensity’ is also continuously growing. If you keep developing at this rate, theoretically, with a bit of ’small enhancent training’ tomorrow, it will be enough for you to even confront the Night Watchman at night..."
"Young Master Tian... are you serious?" Lin Yi asked seriously.
Tian Bufan seriously responded: "I’m serious. Before setting out, we already discussed it."
It was Lin Yi’s turn to be slightly silent; he didn’t expect that he, an expert in morization, would also be pulled to endorse soone else’s plan.
Due to mory issues, Tian Bufan could even use the "him" from before enrolling to back up their strategy — though perhaps the matter was indeed like that.
However, Lin Yi still had small... doubts about the strategy laid out by Tian Bufan.
"Can I really make such great progress by tomorrow?" he couldn’t help but ask.
"You always lack sufficient ’cognition’ about yourself, Old Lin." Kuai Hongji said coldly, "But it’s not important anymore..."
Tian Bufan glanced at the desk and saw the black wooden box.
"The ’Ouroboros Ring’... with it, you have enough ti to adapt gradually." Tian Bufan paused and added, "I haven’t watched the special forces team you ntioned, and I really don’t care to watch it, but you should know Wang Lu Fei, the real ntor of Kaiduo, the three-stick Fast Learning Sakura."
"When confronting the Night Watchman, you’re bound to make trendous advances as well."
Lin Yi let out a faint sigh.
Tian Bufan patted his shoulder: "I don’t want to put too much pressure on you..."
"No one confesses to an already crushed soda can by a hydraulic press." Lin Yi said in distress.
"I haven’t finished, Old Lin." Tian Bufan said.
Lin Yi: "..."
Tian Bufan said: "I don’t want to put too much pressure on you, but... you’re still far from enough, Old Lin."
"Your adaptability exceeds the safe value calculated officially, which is why we were chosen to co here... But even so, completing this task in seven days is still a bit of a strain on your adaptability. Therefore... taking the most unconventional shortcuts within the limits is the key to completing our mission."
Lin Yi asked with confusion: "Then can’t we just adapt little by little?"
Tian Bufan shook his head, and his tone gradually grew serious: "We’re not here to learn, the ’Primordial Ash Apostle’ won’t play pretend with you and give you that much ti."
"Speaking of the Primordial Ash Apostle..." Lin Yi raised a finger, mimicking Iron Bull Beef Noodles.
Tian Bufan rcilessly interrupted: "Let’s talk about that later, let finish my topic first."
"Uh... go on..." Lin Yi retracted the bowl of Iron Bull Beef Noodles.
Tian Bufan said: "Seven days is the maximum duration we can safely stay on campus..."
"The scale of ’ti’ is imperceptible to ordinary people, but for units within the ti dinsion, anomalies are like bright beacons in the night... we must complete the task and escape before attracting ’Their’ attention."
Lin Yi asked: "This ti... which ’They’ are you referring to?"
"It could be ’Angel’, or it could be the ’Root’, in any case, beings that we can’t possibly reach, even if we exhaust our entire lives...".
"Ants jumping up at the wind is already an extre, and even then, it’s incomparable to soone high above."
"In front of ’Them’, we are too insignificant."
"And being insignificant, we must have the humility and cognition of the small; our goal is not to kick soone in the knee, but... to escape."
"From beginning to end, it’s about ’escaping’."
Lin Yi slightly lowered his brow. Every ti ’They’ are ntioned, or anything of that level, even Tian Bufan is evasive and extrely cautious.
Tian Bufan continued: "The dangers you’ll face are nurous, and by that point, you’ll even need to discover secrets with a form of will from ’Star Moon Night’."
"But by then, their shells will beco carriers for your temporary self-will augntation, so you won’t be descending into a void without foundation."
"Hiss... ’Descent of Will’? How the hell would I know how to do that?" Lin Yi was a bit taut, how could Young Master Tian be saying sothing so outrageous? Is this still whom I think "I" am?
Tian Bufan said calmly: "Whether you can or not, I’m providing you the cognition of ’yes, you can’ now, just hope that by then you really can."
Lin Yi: "...
Tian Bufan paused, and then continued: "Once everything is ready, you will withdraw from the Art Building, then rendezvous with your main body, and return to the Teaching Building."
"When daylight cos, we’ll leave the campus."
"That’s the basic strategy; if anything unexpected happens..." Tian Bufan pursed his lips for the first ti, "...you better hope nothing unexpected happens."
"Uh... by the way, while I’m in the campus, where are Wei Sang and Liangzi?" Lin Yi asked.
"Wei Sang will be with you." Tian Bufan said, "That’s exactly what I need to tell you now: when you’re on campus, you’re not at rest but rather in a kind of moving state..."
"Due to the distortions in the campus layers, to maintain a ’signal connection’ between your will and body, you must keep moving."
