598: Chapter 272: Phantom Vision!
Art Building Stairwell!
“An unusual candlestick from inside the Art Building…how did it appear here?!”
“No, there was clearly nothing on the wall just now.
When did this candlestick pop up?”
The candlestick flickered eerily, as though swaying on its own, resembling a clown’s smiling face.
Within those flas, it seed as if sothing chilling was smiling back at him.
Just as Lin Yi had affird his cognition, the candlestick suddenly turned illusory.
At the sa ti, the fla on the candlestick shook inexplicably, and his vision began to flicker rapidly.
The rhythm of the flickering was eerily synchronized with the swaying of the candlelight!
And the scene he witnessed also underwent so extraordinary changes.
He saw the white Wall Powder in the staircase suddenly turn into ancient yellow-brown stone blocks, only to revert back to normal in the next mont.
The candlestick appeared and disappeared intermittently.
Each ti the candlestick vanished, the staircase “restored” itself to normal; when the candlestick was present, the staircase appeared as if it was built from those yellow-brown stone blocks.
It was as if he saw people squeezing through the staircase, moving very slowly, yet their forms were indistinct.
Suddenly, he felt sothing pushing him towards the stairs, and around him, he could hear so hurried urging voices:
“Hey, what are you dazed about, hurry up and move!”
Another voice followed: “Xiao Mao, what’s wrong with you?”
“Wait!
Xiao Mao…?!” Lin Yi’s heart trembled, and his body tensed.
He abruptly looked towards the candlestick at the corner of the staircase and saw that it had now turned incredibly realistic, and the entire staircase had beco a passage constructed of yellow-brown stone blocks.
Subsequently, he felt that sensation of falling from the clouds in a dream.
Although standing on the step, he couldn’t understand why he felt such a solid grounding.
At the sa ti, busy figures began to appear in his vision.
These people were all dressed in green uniforms resembling Wizard robes, clearly all Art Students.
But at this mont, these Art Students seed to occupy a surprisingly spacious staircase, which in reality was overcrowded as they moved upwards.
“Move quickly!”
A voice ca through, Lin Yi felt a heavy push, followed by so hostile tones: “Don’t drag others down if you want to die!”
“Hey!
What are you saying?!” Another person by Lin Yi’s side seed to be defending him, directly grabbing the unfriendly individual by the collar, lifting him up, “We’re all classmates; is there a need for such words?”
“I…
I…” The boisterous individual’s bravado quickly diminished.
Lin Yi then glanced at the person beside him.
At this ti, Mu Daxian had disappeared, the crowded staircase was teeming with people, and the entire crowd seed to be surging towards an exit above.
“Are you okay, Xiao Mao?” the person next to him asked.
“I…
I’m fine.” Lin Yi instinctively wanted to respond, and so Mao Feiyang’s voice erged from his mouth.
“Have I taken over soone else’s body?” After responding, Lin Yi’s heart shook with shock and confusion, along with a sense of being lost, feeling as if he was thinking, “I am Maozi, I am in the Art Building, but what am I supposed to do now?”
But confused as he was, he knew well enough to follow the flow without needing any cue, so he started walking up with the crowd.
The Art Student next to him patted his shoulder, saying: “Don’t worry, Xiao Mao, since Brother Xian has instructed, I, Yanjing Ming, will definitely get you through.”
Lin Yi, knowing well that sotis it’s better to keep quiet than to speak, shut his mouth and nodded, silently following the crowd.
However, at that mont, he found ‘himself’ murmuring: “Okay…
Brother Yan.”
“Eh?” Lin Yi was slightly startled and quickly realized that he hadn’t taken over soone else’s body, but rather, for so unknown reason, he had assud Maozi’s perspective, and the recent statent “I’m fine” was indeed synchronized with Maozi’s reaction.
This feeling of assuming another perspective was different from the earlier interaction with the world, and was instead reminiscent of being in a dream.
He tried to recall…
After midnight, Maozi and Mu Daxian had returned to the Art Building, and then the Art Teacher had covered for them, after which there was nothing more…
While unfolding his mories, he gradually realized that his sense of imrsion in his surroundings began to fade.
He started feeling a bit light-headed, and the candlestick and the crowd seed to grow more illusory.
He quickly broke off his recollection, managing to stabilize his sense of imrsion a bit.
“It seems I can exit this state at any ti!”
He suddenly felt a bit excited, but since he didn’t know if he could return to this perspective after leaving, he decided that since he had co this far, he might as well observe a little longer…
Mao Feiyang began moving along with the crowd, while Lin Yi seized this opportunity to cautiously observe his surroundings.
The staircase resembled a winding Big Snake, spiraling up from deep underground to an unscalable, dark ceiling.
The broad and majestic steps were now filled with Art Students, while the surroundings were made up of thick, ice-cold yellow-brown stone blocks, enduring through countless years, yet remaining as solid as ever.
