Chapter 136 Talking behind the back
"To be honest, I can't tell either." Xu Shunkang spread his hands, "From her body, I can't see the characteristics of an art student, nor can I see the characteristics of a nocturnal species. , like... the kind of art students who have lost their identity documents, if I have to say it, they may be 'unstable art students'. If they continue to sink, they will also become 'nocturnal species'."< br>
"Huh?" Lin Yi was a little confused.
Xu Shunkang shook his head: "Don't be surprised. Nocturnal species are not a species, but a wide range of collections. They do not have only one transformation path. All creatures that become that state, regardless of Whether they are alive or dead, they all belong to the nocturnal species."
Lin Yi suddenly realized that Tian Bufan's guess was correct.
"In other words, chess pieces that lose their identity certificates will turn into nocturnal species, and nocturnal species are the ghosts that wander around the chessboard as you just mentioned?" Lin Yi concluded.
Xu Shunkang nodded: "Yes."
"Then, if the nocturnal species continues to be polluted, it will turn into a sculpture?"
"Yes, not... you There's something wrong with this guy, how did you know so much information in one night? Isn't your brain going to explode?" Xu Shunkang stared at Lin Yi with an extremely serious expression.
Lin Yi did not want to talk more about this topic: "But you said that nocturnal species are sculptures in a sense?"
"The difference between tadpoles and frogs." Xu Shunkang turned into a master of summary and said concisely.
Lin Yi couldn't help but narrowed his eyes: "Can you tell me more specifically?"
Li Huiyuan added: "If possible, let's use me as an example..."
Xu Shunkang glanced at Li Huiyuan and continued: "If you are unable to retrieve your identity certificate, you will mutate physically and psychologically as you are constantly eroded by the 'fog', and become a 'nocturnal species'." Like those people curled up in their seats during evening study in the classroom. "
"Your body will gradually adapt to the 'mist', and your need for 'mist' will be like a person's need for food. Become thirsty. But at the same time, normal natural light will drive away the 'fog', so that sunlight will act like a poison to you. ”
"In extreme cases, you will even develop a strong desire to devour things containing 'fog'. These impulses and bloodthirsty instincts will gradually take over your mind until you completely become a kind of person between life and death. "Monster in space."
"Your body will also turn into a substance with certain shaping capabilities. Under the sun, you cannot maintain your human form because of the lack of 'fog', and you need to hide as much as possible to avoid the sun. Go to a place where there is no light."
"And at night when the sunlight begins to weaken, your body will become extremely hard, like a stone soaked in ice water."
"Especially in unusual weather filled with 'fog', your body functions will be extremely active and even reach a peak state."
"'Such a nocturnal thing, cloaked in fog and chasing light, Traveling day and night, it will all come to nothing."
"This is the 'nocturnal species'."
After hearing this, Lin Yi thought thoughtfully, and then asked: "Then how did they become sculptures?"
"It's not sculptures, It's like a sculpture," Xu Shunkang corrected.
"'Similar to a sculpture'?" Lin Yi frowned slightly, with a confused expression, "Isn't this sculpture the one I understood?"
He thought that what Xu Shunchang said about tadpoles turning into frogs was That process.
Xu Shunkang said: "There is still one level of pollution depth difference between the 'nocturnal species' and the 'sculpture'."
"Still one level behind? So much difference?" Lin Yi said in surprise.
“There’s just such a big difference.” Xu Shunkang’s expression became much more serious when he mentioned sculptures, “Don’t ask too much about things related to ‘sculptures’, they are terrifying things at the center of the magnetic field.”
“The more you know about sculptures, the closer the distance between you and sculptures will be, allowing you to connect with them... This kind of connection is more fatal and is a known conventional means. They can't allow you to disconnect this connection in the low-pollution zone."
Lin Yi was slightly silent. This time he stopped and asked without hesitation: "What kind of sculpture can be said about the nocturnal species. ”
"There is no problem with this." Xu Shunkang nodded, "Nocturnal species are afraid of the sun because their bodies have not been completely formed. To put it bluntly, they are not well developed."
"Their bodies cannot store 'mist' ', and cannot convert the 'mist' into their own power, so as long as it is daytime, their bodies will lose the mist like air leakage, from barely maintaining their human form to that limp and rotten state. "
“If they are exposed to sunlight again, their bodies will become sculptured and turn into the plaster-like appearance you see.”
“In fact, I can’t agree with you on this point. The explanation is clear. It can only be said that the body structure of the nocturnal species is like that. "
"If you want to know more specifically... you can ask the chef." Xu Shunkang raised his eyebrows slightly and showed a strange smile. , "The premise is that you can enter the staff passage of the canteen. If you encounter chefs in areas other than the canteen, you have to be careful, they are not easy to deal with."
Lin Yi thoughtfully said: "Okay, I remember it."
"Yes." Xu Shunkang nodded, "Is there anything else I want to ask? If not, we will go back to the classroom first. "
Lin Yi asked tentatively: "By the way... why don't you talk to me about the chef again?"
"Go, go!" Xu Shunkang waved. "I feel like I'm overstepping my bounds by telling you about the nocturnal species, and then I tell you about the chef? Haha, why don't you twist off my head and use it as a magic mirror to ask? Okay, okay, I'm going back to the classroom to read comics. , If you have any questions, you can ask others, such as the boss...Okay, let's go!"
After Xu Shunkang said this, he took Xie Huayang and left.
Lin Yi looked at the backs of the two of them, and actually still had many doubts in his heart, but Xu Shunkang was able to tell him about the nocturnal species, which was already the end of his kindness, and he couldn't pester Xu Shunkang anymore.
After all, the sports student’s bat is not just for fun.
As for asking the boss... Lin Yi suddenly felt a little in awe, fearing that the answer would not be the boss, but the boss's feet.
He glanced down at his watch.
14:30.
After chatting for 17 minutes, I got a wave of useful information, which was a huge profit.
"There is one hour left, time is running out, let's go to the next place."
Lin Yi said and left here with Li Huiyuan.
...After Lin Yi walked away, Xu Shunkang and Xie Huayang slowly walked out from the corner of the teaching building.
Looking at Lin Yi's back, Xu Shunkang frowned slightly and sighed: "The boss is right...Lin Yi really has a big problem."
Xie Huayang flapped his nose, like a wild beast He made a grinning expression: "His pollution is really too serious. I can smell the smell of pollution from a few streets away. If you hadn't stopped me several times, I would have taken out the bat and given it to him." "How many times."
Xu Shunkang pondered: "It is indeed a very strange state. His pollution was so serious that it covered the girl named Li Huiyuan next to him, and we couldn't even notice it. Her question."
Lin Yi actually missed one detail - Xie Huayang and Xu Shunkang went back without going to the toilet at all after they arrived, as if the hunters had noticed something unusual about the animal trap. Come and take a look.
Xu Shunkang added: "The boss also said that even the water in the swimming pool could not purify his pollution, and even...he even dropped the layer once in the swimming pool, and then before the boss was about to pull him back, I just pulled myself back.”
Xie Huayang was silent.
Xu Shunkang continued: "The boss suspects that our class lost a large number of physical education students and art students after the incident in Datou, and was unable to replenish its combat power in a short period of time to fight against the nocturnal species and sculptures, so the school specially We brought in a highly inspired guy and asked him to quickly adapt to the anomalies in the campus and become one of us..."
Xie Huayang hesitated and said, "How long has it been since he entered the school on the night of May 6th? , How long did it take for him to become so polluted? He didn’t go to the art department or the physical education department at this speed, but more like...he went directly to the sculpture."
"And he went there. He knows too much, and I always feel that someone around him is constantly instilling knowledge into him, thus prompting him to grow rapidly, just like..."
"It's like planting trees." Xu Shunkang took over the conversation, "Because of the problem with the chessboard, the outside 'shis' and 'prime ministers' could not interfere directly, so the school put a 'soldier' in, and then used the characteristics of the chessboard to induce him to become a 'shi' or 'Phase'..."
"So you deliberately played hard to get and told him the information about the 'Nocturnal Seed'?" Xie Huayang said.
Xu Shunkang nodded: "Anyway, someone is instilling knowledge into him, so why can't it be us? And I can only say this. If I say more, it will appear that I am too deliberate."
"But there is only that stupid-looking guy around him." Xie Huayang frowned, "So the only time he can communicate, besides finding that person, is through his roommate. ...Is there a problem with his roommate?"
Xu Shunkang rubbed his eyebrows and felt a headache: "The problem is too big... Lin Yi is probably just a move brought in by the school..."
"Well..." Xie Huayang nodded, "And in recent times, the frequency of abnormal weather has become higher and higher. At certain times, I even heard the call of the ocean while looking out..."< br>
"That layer is getting closer and closer to us..." Xu Shunkang nodded, with a strong look of worry in his eyes: "The boss hasn't left the gym area for a long time... I saw her last time" While on duty, I tore up a strange sculpture. "
"The owner of the canteen has not shown up for a long time..."
"The art student said that the abnormal noises in the castle are getting louder and louder..."
"The more I think about it recently, the more I feel that there is something wrong with the big head incident. There seems to be a lot of doubts, but they are all covered up by other things. I always feel that there is an invisible force driving everything..."
< br>"Alas..." Xu Shunkang let out a long sigh, "We are just small soldiers. Even if we realize that we are on the chessboard, what can we do? ”
……
X023, May 8, 14:33.
Lin Yi's face looked a little ugly when he walked out of the corridor of the elevator. He thought to himself that he was really polluted. Even Xu Shunkang couldn't tell if he had golden pupils?
You must know that the kind of eyes that open up give people a feeling of awesomeness, and the eyes are as bright as the eyes.
"They stared at Li Huiyuan for a while and saw the problem, but they couldn't see the problem when they stared at me! Alas..."
He sighed deeply in his heart, but he didn't know that everything was exactly the opposite. His pollution was so serious that the other party could feel it without opening any eyes...
He looked at Li Huiyuan and asked with some confusion: " Why did you just use yourself as an example? Aren't you afraid of hearing some unacceptable answers?"
Li Huiyuan loosened her pursed lips and laughed at herself: "This is what cannon fodder should do. ! Don’t you just want to know that information?”
“Of course I’m afraid of hearing something that makes me despair, but... I also hope that I can get enough information for you in this way. .”
Lin Yi narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
"Because..." Li Huiyuan sighed, "Because isn't this a deal in itself? I will try my best to help you, in exchange for you... to help me as much as possible when I am in danger."
The survival game has interests, and Li Huiyuan gradually understood that only if she really created enough information value for Lin Yi could Lin Yi help her when encountering certain disasters.
She was actually gambling, but from the moment she agreed to be Lin Yi's cannon fodder, she had already started a huge gamble.
After all, the phrase "help me when you are in danger" has been unfounded from the beginning.
……
The teaching building runs north-south, and the three lecture theaters are located on the east-west axis. To the east of Class 1 and to the west of Class 3 are the toilets. If you continue walking forward in the direction of the toilets, you can see to a north-south axis.
What is built on this north-south axis is the covered bridge.
There is also a stairwell with the door always open on the side of the covered bridge.
After walking through the stairwell and coming to the covered bridge, Lin Yi stopped.
It is currently located at the junction of the east-west axis and the north-south axis of Teaching Building B. Starting from here, follow the corridor bridge to the south to reach Teaching Building A, and to the north is Teaching Building C. .
It is obviously the first floor of the teaching building, but there is a connecting bridge between the teaching buildings. This is because the terrain in the mountainous area has the problem of ups and downs. Even the teaching buildings in a row have different heights. In addition, the three teaching buildings seem to be connected together, but in fact the distance between them is still very considerable, so there is a covered bridge elevated above the ground.
Lin Yi came to the entrance of the covered bridge, stopped and stretched his neck to look at the outside of the covered bridge.
Despite the rolling hills, the covered bridge connecting the teaching buildings is still very straight, just like a pedestrian bridge.
My state has been a bit bad lately, and I feel like I might ask for leave one day...
