Chapter 183 Two Transformation Paths (2300 words added!)
Moreover, doesn’t water evaporate when exposed to sunlight?
At night, you can absorb water vapor and rejuvenate.
Moreover, the form of pollution in the campus is fog, and fog itself is part of the water!
Also, the abnormal weather is not scary at first. Once it starts to rain, it is the abnormal weather that is really scary.
So that kind of "rain" is a stronger pollutant?
Everything seems to be just right!
Nocturnal species actually have "water" properties!
Sure enough, Jia Baoyu sincerely does not deceive me, anything made of water is dangerous!
Lin Yi said all his conjectures in one breath. Tian Bufan smiled after hearing this: "You have thought so much about the formation of alien sculptures? However, conjectures are conjectures, don't Just make a conclusion simply..."
"As for the concept of "super" nocturnal species, I find it very interesting, but I feel that the pollution sources in the campus are not like aggregates of nocturnal species. Unless they can really change from quantitative to qualitative changes, no matter how many ants there are, the aggregates will Together they form one big ant group. "
"Imagine that there are enough nocturnal species in an elevator box, right? What about a campus full of nocturnal species? Although there are many, no matter how many there are, they will still die as soon as they see the sunlight. "
"This kind of thing that cannot see the sun, the life form is too low... I even think that when it comes to the source of pollution, that kind of conceptual sculpture is more qualified. "
"Conceptual sculpture..." Lin Yi pondered for a moment, then nodded, "That's right, back to the topic, you dragged a few sports students to carry mirrors to look at the night walking species, and tried to remove them from the elevator. Deported from here? "
Tian Bufan sneered: "I originally thought I could drive them out of the elevator, but what's interesting is that they kept shrinking into the elevator. ”
"I probably think that the outermost layer of nocturnal seeds can become a protective film after being dried by the sun."
"I had to break their naive idea, so I asked a Enthusiastic physical education students, whenever the surface layer of nocturnal species is dried, break that part into pieces with a baseball bat to expose the living bodies of the nocturnal species again..."
"Finally, We killed the entire night crawler in the elevator box, and I successfully entered the elevator."
"What's it like inside the elevator?" Lin Yi asked curiously.
"I'm afraid I will disappoint you if I tell you." Tian Bufan shook his head slightly, "There is no big difference between the inside of the elevator in the teaching building and the elevator in the dormitory building. The only difference is the button panel."< br>
"The floor panel of the elevator in the teaching building shows that there are 8 floors in the teaching building. On the 8th floor, there is a '↑' button covered by a red glass cover. There is also an '×' on the glass cover, which means The button panel in the elevator in the dormitory building is the same. "
"It is actually safe to enter the elevator. As long as you don't press the floor button, the elevator will not run, or if you step on the edge of the elevator, the door will not close. I have Enough time to observe the situation inside the elevator. "
"I think part of the reason why the student code prohibits experience students from taking the elevator is because they are worried that the floor buttons are not the same as the number of floors written in the code, which is contradictory. The phenomenon can easily cause cognitive conflicts among experience students, causing them to doubt the code..."
"You should know that once you doubt the code, it is no different than self-destruction."
"Another part of the reason is that when an ordinary experience student presses the elevator button, and the door opens to reveal a whole elevator of rotten flesh-looking nocturnal creatures, it is easy for people to have a nervous breakdown."
If the san value is cleared instantly, it is no different than dying suddenly on the spot.
Lin Yi was slightly silent. He had imagined a lot of the environment inside the elevator of the teaching building, and even more outrageous scenes, but he did not expect that the elevator of the teaching building would be so reasonable and unexpected.
"That means...the elevator in the teaching building and the elevator in the dormitory building are the same kind of elevator, so they have the function of going to and from the art building. Even their operating principles may be the same."
< br>"However, it seems that the elevator in the teaching building can only be used in abnormal weather..."
Tian Bufan guessed: "If the reason why the use of the elevator in the teaching building is prohibited is because of the two points I mentioned, This means that as long as we have sufficient knowledge, we can also use the elevator freely, but the premise is that we only use the 1st to 4th floors in the elevator. In abnormal weather, once the layers start to stretch, we can reach the 5th to 8th floors through the elevator. .”
"Of course this is just my conjecture. In principle, I don't recommend any of us to try it... because so far we are unable to know more information related to the elevator, and the 1st to 4th floors that the elevator reaches are still It’s hard to tell if it’s not the 1st to 4th floors of the campus under the normal layer.”
Lin Yi thought for a moment, then nodded. Exploration pays attention to a step-by-step, step-by-step approach. If you master the same place before entering. With enough intelligence and knowledge, the risk factor will be greatly reduced.
“Besides, in addition to turning into sculptures, nocturnal species can also turn into inhuman classmates.” Tian Bufan said slowly, “I had dinner with Wei Shan today. , we left the cafeteria after eating and returned to the teaching building at about 16:30."
"So early?" Lin Yi was a little surprised. At that time, he was still walking around in the student cafeteria looking for the canteen. Where is the location?
Tian Bufan said: "Because I want to confirm what will happen to the nocturnal species in the elevator before the sun completely sets."
"Because according to the rules for art students, we can infer that the interior of the elevator in the teaching building must be empty at night so that art students can leave in the elevator. In other words, they will leave the elevator at the right time."
"You caused trouble to a nocturnal creature in the elevator again?"
"It doesn't count this time, just observation."
"So what did you see?"
"Wei Shan and I were squatting outside the elevator corridor. We didn't notice anything at first, until I saw an inhuman classmate passing by us, and then went to open the elevator."
"That time point was about 17:50, which is when the sun completely set and the campus layers began to fall."
Tian Bufan described the scene at that time unhurriedly, an inhuman classmate After opening the elevator, the nocturnal species that looked like rotten flesh began to squirm out of the elevator, and then began to twist and separate from each other, turning into independent pieces of plasticine-like humanoid substances.
“Some of them still retain the appearance of disembodied rotten flesh, while the other part begins to take shape, turning into something with a human form, and after 18:00, along with the floor When the light was turned on, it turned into an 'inhuman classmate'."
When Lin Yi heard this, he immediately thought of the changes that occurred when the humanoid sculpture came into the light from the fog, and couldn't help but gasp. In one breath: "Human sculptures can also turn into non-human classmates!"
Tian Bufan nodded: "I also saw it, they are almost the same type of life. This was revealed when I was playing barbecue with The sports students got some information while chatting, I will tell you in detail later.”
"The nocturnal species who could not transform into an inhuman classmate slowly wriggled like a leech outside the stairs of the teaching building before 18:00, hiding in the darkness where they would not be illuminated by light and far away from the street lamp poles."
Lin Yi thought of the alien unit he encountered while returning to the dormitory building that did not have a human form but still clung to his back. It seemed that it was probably this kind of nocturnal creature.
He asked: "However, why are some nocturnal species able to turn into inhuman classmates, but some cannot? What is the reason for this difference? Is it related to identity anchoring?"< br>
“You are right, only nocturnal species with an anchored identity can become inhuman classmates.” Tian Bufan said, “In other words, any nocturnal species with an anchored identity can become a classmate. Become non-human classmates."
"After being separated from the sculpture form, non-human units can move like humans under the light, but their mobility is greatly affected by the intensity of the light."
"Ordinary nocturnal species do not have the 'right' to enter the light at all, and can only hide in places protected from light."
"According to the information I received from the sports students, before daytime arrives, All non-human units need to stay out of the light range to avoid being burned by the sun."
"When evacuating, they will hide in the elevator nearby. Those who cannot hide in the elevator in time will escape from the teaching building. area, hide in the green forest belt.”
“It is said that... deep in the green forest belt, there is a gray world shrouded in mountain fog all year round, and even the sun cannot penetrate.”
“When daytime comes, the non-human classmates located at the edge of the green forest belt will transform into humanoid sculptures again, while the nocturnal species hiding in the elevator can still maintain the mud because they are not exposed to the sun. status.”
"So that's it." Lin Yi looked astonished. After knowing the difference between nocturnal species, inhuman classmates and humanoid sculptures, plus the scene where the humanoid sculptures transformed into inhuman classmates that he saw with his own eyes, Many details were understood at once.
"By the way, have you asked where nocturnal species come from?" Lin Yi asked. He actually wanted to ask Xu Shunchang, but Xu Shunchang and the others were unclear. They only mentioned the concept of nocturnal species but did not explain it. Too detailed.
Tian Bufan nodded and continued: "In fact, just talking about life and death can be divided into different levels of nocturnal species. One type is transformed by living people, and the other type is transformed by dead people."
“The transformation of a dead person is easy to understand, just like that of a little genius.”
“After the killed person was contaminated, his body was transformed and mutated, transforming into the form of white powder particles. Another form is reborn, but this type of nocturnal species does not have much thought, only an almost pure instinct and a strong desire for 'identity'."
"There is a type of inhuman classmates in the classroom. They have empty eyes and devilish smiles on their mouths. These are the inhuman classmates transformed by the dead."
"They will gradually lose the ability to maintain their human appearance. , turning into a humanoid ooze-like substance like plasticine... But if you can obtain an identity anchor, you can maintain your human form."
"This type, I prefer to call them "dead." "Inhuman classmates", they have no possibility of transforming back, and the only ending is to be killed by the sports students, or to be cleared out by the security guards when they wander around the campus. "
"The transformation of living people is also quite easy to understand, but the concept is a little more complicated. For example, it is Li Huiyuan's. ”
“Experience students lose their student ID cards for various reasons. After losing their identity anchor, they will be affected by various strange phenomena in the campus, and they will also have self-doubt due to layer fluctuations. problems, leading to instability of its own state, absorbing pollution from white powder particles, and transforming into a nocturnal species. ”
"When they complete the transformation, their form is almost like humanoid sculptures. If the pollution intensifies, they will degenerate into nocturnal species."
"But this does not mean that experience students will become nocturnal species after losing their student ID cards. Although there is a sense of reaching the same goal through different paths, there are still some subtle differences in essence."
"The nocturnal species transformed from living people...will be more intelligent, while the nocturnal species transformed from dead people will be more intelligent. It’s just instinct.” “There is a kind of inhuman classmates in the classroom who are rather sinister and can look at people. They are this kind of people. I call them “non-human classmates who are not dead yet.” "
"Not dead yet, but already on the road to death. The chance of being transformed back is very slim. ”
"So even the nocturnal species are different, just like making soup with dead fish and cooking it with live fish looks the same, but the taste is obviously different." Lin Yi suddenly thought of this analogy, "emmmm... ...Is it the difference in 'the freshness of the ingredients'?"
"Yes." Tian Bufan was a little surprised by Lin Yi's metaphor of a madman's diary, and continued after a pause, "And, According to the sports student’s description, there is a chance that humanoid sculptures transformed from living people can be transformed back.”
“Oh?” Lin Yi’s eyes lit up, “What do you mean?”
"Just find your student ID card in time." Tian Bufan said, "It looks simple, but it's not simple at all, right."
Lin Yi was silent for a moment.
It sounds really nice. Jiebao is simple. Lost items can be retrieved!
However, once lost, it will basically be eaten directly by the nocturnal species, human sculptures, and green bib chefs. How do you get it back? A cesarean section?
And what you need to consider is not whether it is feasible, but whether it is possible. Your student ID has been robbed, and you still go to them. Do you want to be a repeat customer and add another dish to them?
Unrealistic.
If it were Wei Shan, he might be able to violently tear apart the mouths of non-human classmates, but for most people, it is simply not practical.
Tian Bufan continued: "However, whether they are transformed from living people or transformed from dead people, they all have the ability to absorb white powder particles to repair their broken bodies."
"Even if they become Humanoid sculptures can be repaired as long as they are not broken into pieces. But because of this, I said that even "non-human classmates who are not dead yet" have little chance of being transformed back. The pollution will only absorb more and more. There is no chance at all. The place is vented, what else do you think the final outcome will be? "
Lin Yi frowned and suddenly said in a deep voice: "When I heard what you said, I immediately thought of us... Maozi is absorbing pollution continuously and then dispersing it to us. Sooner or later, there will be pollution. One day, we will also become inhuman classmates, right? "
Tian Bufan was silent, and suddenly there was only the sound of the pendulum clock in dormitory 1414.
About ten seconds later, Tian Bufan said: "Unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless we leave S University before we are transformed, or... find a way to use pollution."
Lin Yi narrowed his eyes: "You want to change Become a sports student or... an art student? But in that case, you need to give up your existing identity anchor." "That's why we have to find a way to transform back..." Tian Bufan corrected, "And, I guess. , there is a very strict rule on the path from experience student to sports student or art student - "no overnight stay". "
"Experience students who mistakenly swipe someone else's student ID card need to register with their class teacher before staying overnight; experience students who lose their student ID cards also need to report to their class teacher before staying overnight..."
“There is a subtle connection between ‘identity anchor’ and the sensitive time point of ‘overnight’. "
"I think if people who lose their student ID cards can't enter one of the ways before spending the night, they will become inhuman classmates. "
"Your head teacher, by keeping Li Huiyuan behind, must be helping her embark on one of these paths, and it is most likely the path to become a sports student. ”
But after the two of them talked to this point, they basically analyzed two logical and clear transformation paths.
The first one is:
"Experiencer" - (killed) - (continues to absorb pollution) - "nocturnal species" - (obtain identity anchor) - "inhuman classmate".
The second article is:
"Experience student" - (Lost student ID) - (Continue to absorb pollution, stay overnight) - "Inhuman classmates" -
[ 1. (Continuously absorbing pollution) - "Nocturnal Species"]
[2. (Take back student ID card) - "Experiencer"]
Of course there is a third article: "Experience student" - (lost student ID) -
[1. (???) - "Art student"]
[2. (???) ? )—"Sports Student"]
The question marks on both sides represent unique conditions.
But the third item is unclear and can only be left to be explored in the future.
No matter which path they take, the nocturnal and inhuman classmates will lose the pollution and turn into human sculptures after being exposed to sunlight, and will turn into nocturnal or inhuman classmates after reabsorbing the pollution.
So another key factor that determines whether it can be transformed back is whether the unit is alive or dead before the transformation begins. If it is alive, it can still be dealt with, but if it is dead, it will be difficult to become a god. save.
Lin Yi thought thoughtfully: "In this way... combined with this information and the origin of the nocturnal species, the real reason why the little genius sculpture appeared in the green forest belt has been found."
After the little genius was killed, the body was dragged into the green forest by the inhuman classmates who ran away from the teaching building. After receiving a night of pollution and indoctrination, it was illuminated by the sun the next day and turned into a mutilated human sculpture. .
Then it was a cloudy day. When he returned to the teaching building, he encountered clouds floating across the sky. The little genius's "Broken Human Sculpture" should have also encountered this situation, and then added the green forest belt There was a huge amount of pollution there, so it absorbed a large amount of white powder particles, gradually completed its body, and then walked on the road leading to the non-existent ocean. In the afternoon, it happened to let I met him who fell down the layer!
The loop is closed!
Perfect closed loop!
“It doesn’t mean much to know this now.” Tian Bufan shook his head slightly. After understanding the transformation path between nocturnal species and non-human units, he can effectively avoid many problems, like small Even if a genius like him comes back as a human sculpture, they won't be afraid.
“Speaking of which, I didn’t expect the sports student to tell you so much?” Lin Yi’s expression was a little strange, with some unexplained flavor, “Could it be that you discovered it yourself and then shied away from it? Did you pass it on to the unreasonable sports students?"
Tian Bufan smiled: "Yes, they are tight-lipped when it comes to matters of principle, but this can still be discussed."
Lin Yi didn't waste any more time on this issue. Anyway, if he asked, it would be what the sports student said. If he asked again, it would be that Tian Bufan slowly "unpacked" more information as time progressed and his knowledge deepened. information.
“By the way, I discovered that nocturnal species are not only found in elevators, they are also found in places in the teaching building that are not exposed to direct light, and there are also toilets... I met someone disguised as Ryoko in the toilet. Compared with Li Huiyuan's nocturnal species, they seem to be more intelligent than ordinary nocturnal species."
"This is normal. The nocturnal species will take advantage of every opportunity to run away, and those who can't squeeze into the elevator will do so. Escape to the corner of the building." Tian Bufan said slowly, "And those in the toilet are most likely nocturnal species transformed from the "non-human classmates who have not yet died" after the pollution. ”
Now that we talked about the transformation path, Lin Yi couldn’t help but think of the humanoid sculptures disguised as Nie Yun and Ge Qing, trying to attack them.
But this incident impressed him the most. What's profound is not the attack itself, but the opponent's weird posture facing the wall
"Not only Ge Qing and Nie Yun were in the form of inhuman classmates, but the inhuman classmate Zhou Yuting that I saw later seemed to be facing the wall, as if she was licking the paint number with her tongue..." Lin Yi tried hard to recall the details. , “I don’t know if it’s my imagination, but I always feel that today’s street lights seem darker than usual, and even the paint numbers are much lighter.”
“I don’t know if it’s affected by the fog. Or... was licked off by an inhuman classmate?"
Tian Bufan said: "Since I made a guess, let's take a look."
"If it's a street lamp. The dimness is caused by fog, so this problem should have occurred on the day we entered the school and yesterday. However, it is obvious that when the abnormal weather begins to intensify, the illumination range of the street lights will indeed be suppressed, but the light will not be affected.”
"So, the dimming of street lights is most likely related to the inhuman classmates."
"Considering the "emergency plan" given by the head teacher, I very much doubt whether this was a full-scale invasion of the campus by an inhuman unit guided by some strong pollution source. "
"For example...an invasion driven by that conceptual sculpture! "
"And Lao Lin, you seem to have forgotten a very crucial thing. "
Lin Yi said in confusion: "What's the matter? "
Tian Bufan narrowed his eyes, lowered his tone, and said in a deep voice: "Judging from the situation on the first night, there is that person outside my class in Building C and your class in Building B. The figure of a conceptual sculpture, Lao Lin, what do you think this means? ”
When Lin Yi heard this, the pupils in his dark eyes shrank instantly: "You mean... that kind of conceptual sculpture is not the only individual one?"
When he said this sentence , Lin Yi felt a chill running down his spine, as if a cold air was swirling around his body.
