586: Chapter 266: Sunshower 586: Chapter 266: Sunshower “Ah?” Wei Liang was stunned for a mont and asked, puzzled, “Was I supposed to encounter sothing?”
“Uh…
nothing.” Lin Yi caught his breath, but suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and his scalp tingling, his intuition telling him that the Sneering Angel seed to have dealt with the Bandage Pseudo-human Art Student and was now locking onto his location…
“Liangzi, hurry to the Gymnasium!
No ti to explain, just run with !” Lin Yi elbowed Wei Liang’s arm and then quickened his pace, aiming for the location of the Gymnasium and starting to jog toward it.
Fortunately, this section of the mountain road was downhill, so jogging wasn’t strenuous.
Seeing this, Wei Liang quickly followed, calling out, “Hey!
Old Lin, wait for !”
Before long, the Sneering Angel had already appeared around the curve of the mountain path where Lin Yi had looked back.
Just as it was about to chase after Lin Yi by locking onto his scent, the scent captured between its nostrils seed to be disturbed, causing a slight pause in its rhythm.
It floated quietly over there and then slowly descended to the ground, standing as still as a statue.
After a dozen seconds, it slowly adjusted its course, then gently took to the air and drifted toward the side of the Cobblestone road that was closer to the Green Forest Belt…
It moved through the Green Forest Belt as if its body was non-existent, drifting dozens of ters inside, until it finally discovered a broken lamppost at the edge where light t shadow.
Tied to the lamppost was a ‘person,’ whose limbs had all been removed and were sticking, like decorative flowers, onto the hemp ropes nearby.
It struggled desperately, and its limbs, as if they each had their own thoughts, began to wildly thrash, but they couldn’t escape the bindings.
If the Bandage Pseudo-human Art Student was still there, it would have recognized that this person was the other Pseudo-human Art Student who had left the Convenience Store with it, both carrying the “glorious mission” of Bu Ze, to go find trouble for Lin Yi and Wei Liang.
But Lin Yi had been faced only with the Bandage Pseudo-human Art Student, while it seed to have gone looking for Wei Liang…
Only, for so reason, it was now tied up in such a disassembled state.
From the joints where it had been removed, a sticky dark-red liquid was still dripping down, and because it wasn’t exposed to sunlight, no mist of dark green color was steaming off, neither had it turned into a plaster-like substance.
And the creator of this masterpiece seed not satisfied with his work, deliberately making nurous cuts on its body.
These cuts, neither large nor small, had as ti passed soaked its entire garnt with the leaking liquid…
And all of this, with the accumulation of the sticky liquid, resulted in a transformation, until now, it had beco bait enough to attract the Sneering Angel.
The Sneering Angel was not one to refuse an offering, seeing the Pseudo-human Art Student, it drifted over and sucked up the dark green breath within its body, just as before.
…
Lin Yi, who was running ahead on the Cobblestone road, suddenly felt the pressure gradually easing; the ominous premonition making his spine chill seed to have dissipated quite a bit.
“Huh…
Could it be that the Sneering Angel has changed its target?” Lin Yi mused, his guess surprisingly accurate.
Seeing the Gymnasium and the Giant Do already close at hand, just a few stretches of the mountain road away, Lin Yi couldn’t help but let out a half sigh of relief.
The Sneering Angel had not caught up for the ti being, so it must be considerably safer.
Lin Yi walked while unconsciously scanning the surroundings, feeling sothing was a bit off, yet unable to pinpoint any issues, he just felt a certain dissonance, as if there were so minor details different from the last ti he was here.
After walking a bit more, Lin Yi suddenly slapped his forehead: “Ah!
I know now!”
“Ah?!” Wei Liang was startled, quickly stopping in his tracks, “What do you know?”
“The street lights!” Lin Yi exclaid, “I just felt sothing was wrong!
Liangzi, look carefully, along this part of the mountain road…
it seems there are no street lights!”
“What?!” Wei Liang was taken aback, then looked around and shivered, his legs almost giving out, “Holy shit!
There really are no lampposts!”
“But…” he adjusted his mindset, “we’re still on the way to the Gymnasium, shouldn’t be any problem, right?”
“Yes!” Lin Yi nodded, “I’m just giving a heads-up.”
“Your warning is not unreasonable…
Let’s go, let’s hurry to the Gymnasium, I always feel today’s road has a creepy feeling.” Wei Liang stroked his arms as if getting goosebumps.
The two slowed down their pace, but trouble finally still arrived…
As they approached a turn in the mountain road, they suddenly heard a series of loud whooshing sounds of the wind, which were urgent and hoarse, as if blowing through the crevices of twisting branches of several old trees, roaring incessantly on the shadowed side of the mountain road.
Lin Yi and Wei Liang looked at each other.
“‘The Gymnasium is built in a special location, where the wind can be quite strong, do not worry, it’s normal as long as there’s no rain or mist.'” Lin Yi parroted, as if on repeat, the words from the sign in front of the Gymnasium, “It’s a normal phenonon, at least…
I believe, no, I am convinced it’s normal.”
“I am convinced as well.” Wei Liang said solemnly, then, worried that his “conviction” was still not enough, added, “Just like I’m convinced the Boss will arrange a pretty girl to take to swimming class, right?”
