Chapter 1195: Chapter 564: Old Mo?
“Ah?” Lin Yi was taken aback.
Tian Bufan said, “You’ll get used to it.”
As he spoke, he was already the first to stride into the Student Passage.
Lin Yi followed him in.
Although the Student Passage didn’t have a door, it still had door attributes.
In the cafeteria area, there were many door attribute constructs, many of them existed whether or not they actually had doors.
As soon as they entered the Student Passage, a faint and chilly breath brushed against their faces, like a wisp of smoke gently blown onto his face by soone.
Amidst the light smoke, it seed as if a voice was laughing:
[Lin Yi, oh Lin Yi…]
Lin Yi stopped in his tracks, his scalp tingling all of a sudden.
He instinctively reached out to dispel the smoke before him, and what he saw in front of him made his heart tremble.
Before him, it was no longer the Student Passage but a straight, upward-sloping staircase, as if made of floating stone slabs, full of a sense of order and regularity.
Surrounding the staircase was a huge arc-shaped building, like a massive MRI machine.
Inside the structure, countless scales-like constructs appeared; at first glance, they looked like giant serpent scales, but upon closer inspection, they turned out to be bookshelves!
Many broken statue heads were peeking out from the bookshelves, singing that eerie song toward him.
[Lin Yi, oh Lin Yi… where do you want to go…]
[Lin Yi, oh Lin Yi… where can you go…]
[Go back, go back…]
[I am waiting for you in the desolate lands…]
[You know my body and na…]
[You know my authority and power…]
[Lin Yi, oh… Lin Yi…]
[Destiny is like a ring ford by an ouroboros… going round and round only to return to the starting point…]
[Lin Yi, oh… Lin Yi…]
[When the Black Moon withers…]
[Sing my na loudly…]
[Lin Yi, oh Lin Yi…]
[Lin Yi, oh Lin Yi…]
At the end of those countless floating steps was a huge stone tablet.
The stone tablet looked both unfamiliar and familiar, like a glimpse he had seen in the cetery, yet he couldn’t rember how.
And in front of that stone tablet, there was a book placed—”Lawmaker’s Words.”
「Boom——」
Seeing “Lawmaker’s Words” in that instant, a cold and eerie energy ball exploded in his mind, instantly giving him a feeling of returning to the library.
No, this wasn’t just a dream return, it clearly felt as if he had traversed into the library…
「No! Wait!!」Just as this thought erged in his mind, Lin Yi’s back suddenly turned cold, and he sharply realized, 「I can’t think that way, absolutely can’t think that way!」
「It just seems that way! I should be in the Student Passage!」
Lin Yi took a deep breath, trying to find so similarities to the Student Passage here, but no matter if it was the steps or other elents, everything had transford into an unfamiliar form, all the features pointed towards the library—still looking like an unfolded tooth-carved rotating ball!
Lin Yi took a deep breath, his visual field opening up, and suddenly he thought of sothing and looked down at his wrist.
The watch was still there.
But the ti displayed on the dial was frozen, fixed at 7:13 and 43 seconds.
Ti is sothing impossible to grasp when dreaming, but his watch could.
The halted ti ant that he had a phantom vision the mont he entered the Student Passage.
He looked around, and sure enough, everything was static. But the slight mist surrounding the scene added a flowing and eerie feel to the still image, and the song in his ears seed more like words from a painting.
At a glance, it looked like staring at a static CG image…
「Don’t ss with , please don’t ss with …」Lin Yi murmured to himself, silently, as he reached out to wipe the air before him, hoping that by blocking his vision, he could break free from the phantom vision and find an escape anchor.
As his hand passed over his face, he gradually perceived the watch’s slight vibration from walking, and as the song’s sound faded, the coolness from the Student Passage subtly gathered around him.
The flow of ti returned to normal, which ant… he was indeed in the Student Passage.
“Old Lin, what are you dallying about?” Wei Liang walked up behind him, patting his shoulder and asking.
“Nothing, I just… kind of miss Old Mo,” Lin Yi said.
“You want to have fish, too?” Wei Liang grinned, joking.
Lin Yi pressed his lips together, his gaze gradually fell to the end of the Student Passage, where if Old Mo hadn’t been in trouble, he might still be there…
「Wait…?! What’s that!!」
Lin Yi’s eyes widened, his mouth gaping, and his body instinctively started trembling: “…Old Mo?!”
At the end of the Student Passage, there stood a stiff figure, continuously overlapping with the Old Mo in his mind until they completely overlapped.
Lin Yi’s pupils gradually dilated, his heart growing increasingly excited as he quickened his pace and rushed forward; to prevent it from being a trap, he extended his perception tendrils as well.
And the mont those perception tendrils ca into contact with the figure, Lin Yi felt both joy and sorrow.
The joy was that the figure was indeed Old Mo, no matter the state the figure displayed in his perception or the breath it exuded—it was identical to Old Mo’s state in his mory.
But the sorrow was that the figure lacked Old Mo’s liveliness, appearing unnaturally stiff, like a statue.
As Lin Yi neared the Student Passage’s exit, his pace gradually slowed, nervously glancing at Old Mo.
