Chapter 68 Creepy Auditory Hallucinations
Lin Yi took a heavy step.
When this step was taken, the whole world in Lin Yi's perspective was shaky. He knew that his vision was finally starting to have problems. In the broken light and shadow and distorted gray world, it was really difficult to achieve a normal vision.
He kept telling himself "I am a student, my name is Lin Yi, and my student ID is X0230506098." He put all his attention on the "dormitory building-096" street light pole.
He stepped on a step, like stepping on a link in a gear.
The twisted gears drive the puzzle pieces that make up the world. The streetlight pole in front of me folds around like blooming petals, along with the base and the cobblestone road. In the end, the whole world seems to have lost its X, Y, and Z axes and turned into a soft ball of dough.
Lin Yi seemed to be walking through a swamp, and every step he took was extremely laborious.
He could feel that "dormitory building-095" was disappearing behind him, while "dormitory building-096" was still far ahead of him.
He walked forward step by step, and the ground beneath his feet began to lose its own characteristics.
When his foot fell, a dense, spiderweb-like crack spread out from the joint between the sole of the foot and the ground.
However, this phenomenon should have given him a feeling of walking on thin ice, but instead he felt as if he had stepped on glutinous rice dumplings.
It was soft, waxy, and even had a weird unbalanced feeling, and I almost fell down accidentally.
He gritted his teeth so hard that he had to crush his back molars because he was so strong.
He breathed heavily, hot air puffed out from between his mouth and nose, and a low roar began to emit from his throat.
As if he really sensed his heat wave, which was like a steam locomotive, Wei Liang's grip on his shoulders subconsciously loosened, as if he had been burned.
"Don't let go!"
Lin Yi held Wei Liang's hand down with his hand.
ious was he staring fixedly at the "dormitory building-096" street light pole in front of him, making a hard and firm voice from his throat.
At this moment, the forest-white mist surged crazily, twisting with claws and teeth outside the twisted and broken light field.
Under the light, the overlapping mist pursued Lin Yi's back like dark tentacles. They did not exist, but Lin Yi seemed to have a feeling in his heart, and had a premonition that something unreasonable and strange that could not be described in words appeared behind him!
Lin Yi seemed to have become the most delicious thing. He was like a beacon in the darkness, attracting one after another unabashed, greedy, evil, and murderous eyes with pure malice and desire!
The abnormal weather has finally arrived, and darkness is like a tide, sweeping in from all directions like a violent storm.
Lin Yi suddenly noticed that the twisted and soft "cobblestone road" under his feet had become slippery and sticky. He guessed something, and he also had a premonition of something, but his will had already become much tougher after a day of hard work than 24 hours ago. He told himself at the first moment:
"I'm going to the dormitory building soon, screw you about the unusual weather!"
He didn't dare to see what the road under his feet had become, nor did he dare to think about anything related to it.
He has been wrapped in the icy cold wind. The whistling wind carries the sound of swirling air currents, and there is a seemingly non-existent flapping sound permeating from the cyclone, like the sound of waves crashing on a reef and breaking into countless pieces of water.
In the sound waves that broke into pieces one after another, there was vaguely mixed with some completely discontinuous evil noise.
Beasts have their roars, plants have their voices, and mountains, rocks, and waves each have different rhythms. However, when the sounds in nature are entangled and twisted together, and the whimpering wind tears out another completely different and weird rhythm, a creepy feeling instantly envelopes Lin Yi's mind like a tide.
The low roars and sharp hisses are like painful storms surging from the endless abyss. They sing wildly in the craze of the night, as if exuding some weird, manic, and crazy sense of ritual.
Lin Yi, who was covered in hot air, seemed to be pulled into a violent storm, and a strong sense of suffocation enveloped him. He gradually felt that his limbs became cold, and the chill condensed on his spine. He stretched out his hand towards the "dormitory building-096" lamppost with difficulty, the whining sea wind roared in his ears, and the invisible spiral wanted to swallow his soul.
In a trance, Lin Yi caught some sounds that he shouldn't have heard. This sound was mixed in the storm of pain, as if coming from some extremely distant, abandoned and broken world. It seemed to be composed of boring, dry, and indescribable ancient scales, sometimes sharp and sometimes deep, as if a witch was singing some kind of eroding, creepy words or rituals in a cry and hoarse voice:
"I AvgruNnen av tKe og mrke jaGer forTapte Sjeler fanTome"
This unreasonable and inaudible sound wave seemed to tear his spirit apart. At the critical moment, Lin Yi's wartime stress response instinctively began to take over the control of his body, and a low roar began to emit from his throat.
He stared hard at the only lighthouse in the twisted, collapsed, and broken space in front of him - the "dormitory building-096" street light pole. A faint golden light floated in the depths of his dark eyes, as if the light was reflected in his eyes.
It was like a red-gold flame was ignited.
"Let's go! Old Lin...let's go!!!"
Lin Yi's voice seemed to ring in Wei Shan's ears, and a push as thick as a mountain seemed to appear on his back. He burst out with unknown strength, leading Wei Liang to break away from the dark tentacles entangled in the shadows, and rushed towards the "dormitory building-096" street lamp pole!
His every step is sonorous and powerful, and he firmly believes that this is the "only" way.
The sound of the wind in his ears became stronger and stronger, and the sound of the waves twisted and beat back, trying to drag him into a deeper abyss, but his firm steps pushed the resolute figure and gradually transcended the entanglement of darkness.
"Five meters...three meters...two meters..."
"Old Lin!" Behind him, Mao Feiyang's surprise call suddenly sounded, "Old Lin!"
Lin Yi paused slightly.
"Maozi...? No, Lao Lin is dead! Maozi is not here at all!"
He broke through the last meter of distance in one go, stretched out his hand and firmly grasped the "dormitory building-096" light pole in front of him.
At the moment when his hand grasped the "dormitory building-096" street lamp pole, the brief moment seemed to become extremely long, and countless broken and fragmented lights and shadows began to shrink towards the joint between his palm and the street lamp pole at a speed beyond perception.
Just like the explosion of the universe played backwards at a speed visible to the naked eye, it was just an instant, but the broken fragments were repaired completely, the twisted lines returned to normal, and the chaos was overwhelming. The picture was filled with order, and the X, Y, and Z axes with a strong sense of space reappeared in his world...
In a dazed moment, Lin Yi found that he was taking Wei Liang to stop in front of the "dormitory building-096" street light pole.
At the foot is a normal cobblestone road, and there is a street light pole on the other side of the road.
Beyond the lights, it was dark and dense, with floating mist.
The leaves were rustling in the green forest belt, and the moonlight above was thin, but it was still obscured by the fog.
But under the mist, the solemn dormitory building stood in front of him like a tall tower. The dormitory building was extremely high, extending into the depths of the clouds and mist. At a quick glance, he felt that it was at least twenty floors above.
At the same time, he suddenly discovered that there was a huge flow of people gathering in front of the dormitory building. They seemed to be other people rushing to the dormitory building.
He quickly lowered his head and glanced at his watch.
20:51.
20:51...?!》
"Only...eight minutes have passed?!"
He felt like he was struggling to move forward in time. He felt like he had even traveled through a world after boundless destruction.
That period of time seemed to be millions of years ago, but... only eight minutes passed?
"We can't think about these issues anymore at this time!"
He spat secretly and decided not to think about it for now.
At this time, he suddenly felt that after breaking through the abnormal weather, Wei Liang's palms were recovering their temperature at a perceptible speed. It didn't take long for him to come out of the weird cold corpse appearance and become human again.
As if the pause had been lifted, the whole person was stunned for a moment and then trembled violently. Then he came back to his senses in an instant. When he raised his eyes, he saw the dormitory building standing in front of him like a needle in the dim moonlight and fog.
"Holy shit!" Wei Liang's eyes were full of shock, "Old Lin, you...you really fucking did it?!"
Lin Yi also let out a long sigh of relief.
To be honest, he is not absolutely sure, because he can only say that he has slight doubts about the roads in the campus, but there are not many people who have really thought about it.
He has experienced the twisted ground several times during the day. Even regular oval cobblestones can be shaped into weird shapes by that indescribable force, let alone the dark hours of the mist's home field.
Lin Yi actually has a very simple and conservative inference:
Since the campus is artificially constructed, who would put random things with numbers on them when building things?
If that's really the case, there's no need to bring a number!
Since it has a number, it must have a meaning for its existence!
So what is its significance?
is a guide.
Think carefully, when do people need to use maps?
Of course, when you don’t know the road, but when you can see the road clearly, why do you need a map?
In broad daylight, just follow the street lights. Who cares about numbers?
You only need a map when you don’t know the way.
But just now was the time when I didn’t know the way.
On this map, the placement of street lamps was like grabbing a handful of thumbtacks and scattering them on the road. However, when Lin Yi observed carefully, he discovered that all street lamp poles had a communication pattern.
Construct the street light pole with the largest number in front of the teaching building, and build the one with the number "XXX-001" at the edge of the area.
Hence Lin Yi has a conservative and crazy inference:
【When the roads in the campus undergo illogical changes such as stretching, twisting, etc., the originally entangled street lights will be stretched together with the ground...】
【One end of them is "XXX-001", and the other end is "XXX-099" or other larger numbers. In abnormal weather, ordinary roads will no longer exist. The only road left is the one with absolutely orderly numbers...the road from the zero street light to the largest numbered street light! 】
"Under normal circumstances, the space is twisted and folded. Under abnormal weather, the originally folded and twisted part of the space will slowly stretch out!"
"So the street lights during the day are chaotic, because when daytime comes, other street light poles and the ground where they are located will shrink in the entanglement!"
It's like... some kind of magical sponge that hardens and softens.
Despite this, Lin Yi did not say a word about the almost tortuous process, and just said briefly: "I did what I said."
"Hey, hey, I believe that Lao Lin will live forever." After leaving the scope of the fog, Wei Liang immediately became lively and energetic. The trembling and panicked look from earlier was gone forever, and his whole person seemed to have been reborn.
He stuffed the tightly held student ID card back into his pocket, then looked around with a smile, and suddenly said: "Wow, what time is it, why are there so many people?"
Lin Yi subconsciously glanced at his watch after hearing this.
20:53.
Just two minutes have passed.
Everything is normal.
"20:53." He said.
Wei Liang said quickly: "It seems that the elevator will not open until seven minutes. Lao Lin, let's go, I will take you to get the dormitory rules!"
After saying that, he took Lin Yi to the front of the dormitory building, thinking of ways to separate the flow of people as he walked:
"Borrow it! Let me borrow it!"
Lin Yi cherished the hard-won ice-breaking tool and quickly followed him.
Not long after, Lin Yi discovered a huge, vertical notice board in the square in front of the dormitory building that was full of people. The lower part of the notice board was obscured by the crowd. The part that could be seen read:
【Permitted riding time for dormitory elevators:
6:00~7:40
21:00~22:00】
It is prohibited to take the elevator outside these hours! 】
Walking a little further, he saw more content, but suddenly, he saw a sentence on the notice board, and he almost fell to the ground:
[Dear experiencers, welcome to the dormitory building. 】
【Please note! ! ! (Super eye-catching underline symbol):
Due to some irresistible factors, the dormitory building is one of the most dangerous areas in the school! ! !
