Chapter 347 Lin Yi's "Faceless Form"
Lin Yi subconsciously wanted to dodge, but he restrained himself.
After Lao Mo's repeated rubbing, these two scales have turned into something very soft and waxy. When applied to the face, they are as warm and cool as some ice powder.
Lao Mo continued to operate, as if he was helping Lin Yi apply a facial mask.
"Hey, gurgling? (Old Mo, what is this?)" Lin Yi's mouth was rubbed by Lao Mo until he could not speak.
"Stop crowing...it will be fine soon." Lao Mo's techniques became faster and faster, and gradually, those mask-like substances covered his entire head.
"Done." Lao Mo stopped his hand, looked at Lin Yi up and down, and nodded with satisfaction, "What did you just say?"
Lin Yi took a breath: "I said... what is this?"
He touched his head. When this "hood" was placed on his face, it didn't feel suffocating at all. On the contrary, it was very breathable, and even made him feel a refreshing feeling from time to time, as if he had put on a layer of mint-scented... white stockings.
When I thought about it, I felt a little abnormal in an instant.
Lao Mo said: "I changed your appearance so that when you get to the art building, as long as you give yourself an identity, those weird things will not be able to lock your identity."
"'No identity'?" Lin Yi touched his face, and then he was shocked to find that even though his hand had touched the bridge of his nose, he could not feel the existence of the nose at all, nor could he feel the facial features, nose, or even hair.
He repeatedly touched his face, as if rubbing a smooth ball of flesh, which looked funny and ridiculous...
"Old Mo, I, I, I, I... I am now?!" Lin Yi became frightened.
"Am I now... the one I saw in the mirror?"
That appearance is the "faceless" version of myself that only appears in visions! ! !
· Lao Mo observed the situation of the storm in the distance, and said at the same time: "You can use extraordinary strength to get rid of these things, or wait until the next day to get some sun... By the way, what time is it now?"
· Lin Yi lowered his head and glanced at his wrist: "It's 23:04..."
· Lao Mo nodded slightly: "It's okay."
Although he said this, Lao Mo's hand had already touched the handle of the butcher's knife. Holding the handle, his index finger clicked in a certain rhythm, as if he was calculating something.
Lin Yi thought for a while and asked: "Old Mo, you said before that you would tell me the real name of "Big Snake" when we walked out of that road. Is it convenient for you to tell me now? "
Old Mo thought for a moment, then nodded, and slowly spoke out a title: ""Fantom av rttene", which means..."Shadow of the Root". "
"As the name suggests, it is the "phantom of the source"."
"However, as the "Shadow of the Root" lost its real name, it fell into the cracks of the layer and became a "mysterious creature" that relied on instinct, or the underlying behavioral logic, and the fanatical believers gave it another name - "Shadow of Jormungandr." 》
「Yeah, «Jormungandr»...? ! Lin Yi exclaimed in surprise.
"Be strict and bring the 'Shadow'." Lao Mo corrected, "Jormungandr is the giant snake that surrounds the atrium in Norse mythology. It is also known as the worldly python, but this is not that thing, and it does not mean that the 'Shadow of the Root' became 'Jormungandr'. ”
Even so, Lin Yi was still shocked, because he knew that the more myth-related a title was, the less likely it was to name it to something in "reality" so lightly.
While observing the trajectory of the storm that enveloped the art building, Lao Mo took the time to tell Lin Yi: "Initially, a group of "apostles" entered the ocean and sailed out to explore the ocean, but in the end they failed..." The original concrete object was produced, which was the original version of the "Shadow of the Root"..."
"The "Crazy Man" tried to name it with various names, but in fact...according to the record of the most reliable book "The Origin of the Root", no "Apostle" had ever really touched the "Root", and everything was just a crude description of an ant's legs. "
“‘Jormungandr’, ‘Quetzalcoatl’, ‘Hydra’, ‘Xiangliu’, and even ‘Leviathan’… were all things described by the ‘apostle’ based on the ocean. "
"They are most likely to be mythical creatures derived from the forms observed by the "root" in different times and spaces, and recorded by the hands of the "apostle"..."
"The original "Shadow of the Root" was annihilated when the Day of Destruction broke out, but the fanatic believers still based on the secret scriptures passed down by the "apostles", plus the notes left by Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and others, and used the solidified extraordinary power to use the "super-conceptual" sculpture method to outline and reshape the prototype of "it"... which is the "big snake" you see now. "
“It is the “Shadow of the Root” and the “Shadow of Jormungandr”. It even has many names, but no matter which name it is, it is simpler and more crude than calling it “The Big Snake” directly. "
"Absolutely don't call it by its true name in the "Corpse Forest" and the Matrix. It's best not to call it "Shadow of Jormungandr", but it doesn't matter if you leave. ”
Lin Yi’s thoughts were swirling in his heart. He took a deep breath, and then said: “Since the ‘Shadow of Jormungandr’ is also called a ‘big snake’, is it because it also looks like a big snake? "
Lao Mo nodded: "From the appearance, it can be said that it looks like a 'snake'..."
"Ouch..." Lin Yi was instantly in awe of Lao Mo. He didn't expect that Lao Mo had actually faced an existence of the level of "Orochi". He was worthy of being the "Black Chef" that even fanatical believers were extremely afraid of!
"Don't look at me with that kind of admiration, I can't bear it." Lao Mo seemed to see through Lin Yi's thoughts and explained, "I've never seen it, I only heard about it from other people's mouths."
"Someone else? Is it the canteen owner?" Lin Yi asked.
"That's right." Lao Mo nodded, "The only people who can deal with existences of their level are the canteen owners... Don't ask me more, I don't know. If I knew, there would be no need to take this road."
Upon seeing this, Lin Yi stopped asking any more questions. He just repeatedly thought about the "Jormungandr", "Hydra", "Leviathan" and other creatures that Lao Mo had mentioned. It seemed that the origins of these mythical creatures were all related to their roots...
Thinking of this, Lin Yi couldn't help but become very interested in Li Huiyuan's "Mysterious Genealogy".
"Could it be that Li Huiyuan's major is related to this thing?"
Li Huiyuan's "Mysterious Genealogy" seems to be more like the category of the art department, but she became an athletic student by accident, which is really unpredictable.
Lin Yi and Lao Mo chatted for a while.
Then at a certain moment, a huge wave hit the rocks on the shore hard, making a thunderous sound.
icle to break the waves splashing in all directions , which immediately caught Lin Yi 's attention .
He looked in real time, but suddenly found that the originally turbulent waves had become crazy and distorted from unknown time.
The madness of the sea seems to be affected by the art building, becoming terrifying and heart-stopping. The strong wind howls across the sea, like countless invisible hands, ferociously stirring the sea water.
The black waves surged wildly, like towering black peaks, almost covering the sky. Each of these waves was bigger and more ferocious than the other. They overlapped and collided with each other. The splashing water was like a gray curtain, flying wantonly in the air, and then was carried by the strong wind and smashed hard against the sea.
There seemed to be some black shadows in the waves. They were wandering like ghosts, and shuttled back and forth like schools of fish, rushing towards the direction of the Art Building like ten thousand swords returning home.
The scope of the storm is expanding, like a huge whirlpool, beginning to sweep everything around. The sea is so black that it is bottomless, and every wave valley is like an entrance to an endless abyss.
Huge waves hit the rocks on the seaside. The rocks trembled painfully under the impact of the waves. White foam surged crazily around the rocks, and the coastline seemed to tremble.
"It's begun!" Lao Mo's eyes were fixed on the storm corner where the art building was located, and sparks of spiritual stars began to appear in his gray eyes like a fire lit by flint.
"This storm has some similarities with the tide, just like the rising tide and the ebbing tide. Just now it has been rising, and now it is ebbing... In this cyclical change, there will inevitably be a moment when the receding tide collides with the rising tide..."
"At that moment, the gap will open!"
I will be there at that moment. Always use this effect to "surf" and directly use the power of the tide to bring us to the Art Building. "
"When the time comes, I will forcefully borrow your power. Be prepared and don't resist, otherwise I'm afraid it will cause some harm to you."
"Okay!" Lin Yi nodded heavily. He knew that this was the meaning of Lao Mo bringing him.
As a mobile energy supply station, his awareness is very high, so he said the most enlightened sentence: "As long as you don't kill me, you can kill me..."
The corner of Lao Mo's mouth twitched fiercely: "Don't worry, I can't kill you."
"Hey, this sentence seems to have two interpretations..." Lin Yi complained in his heart, but saying so at this moment would also spoil the atmosphere.
At this moment, Lao Mo suddenly exclaimed: "Here we come!"
A burst of bright light burst out from his eyes.
Before he finished speaking, Lin Yi felt that the breath around him was briefly stagnant. The next moment, a powerful gravitational force that broke away from inertia suddenly broke out, and then exponentially increased by a geometric multiple, finally sweeping up the surrounding breath.
When these breaths appeared around him, a powerful pushing sensation appeared. He felt that the ground under his feet began to tremble, and the gravel on the beach began to slide as if it had been absorbed by a vacuum cleaner.
At this moment, another breath appeared!
Him An almost black dark green aura rose up from Lao Mo's body. In this dark green aura, there were faintly entangled golden auras.
Humbling between the dark green aura and the golden aura, Lao Mo had a sense of evil mixed with some holiness. The two completely opposite and contradictory auras coexisted in his body in perfect harmony.
The appearance of this breath even got rid of the pushing feeling that Lin Yi felt.
Immediately afterwards, he felt the extraordinary power in his body surge uncontrollably, and there was a feeling of seeping out from his body.
This feeling is like being sucked out of the soul by an evil heretic.
Lin Yi reacted immediately. This should be Lao Mo's sign of using his power!
Him He tried his best to calm himself down, but his instinct was mainly to show dissatisfaction with the blessing of this external will.
"Lin Yi, relax!"
"I...I'm relaxing!" Lin Yi felt like crying in his heart, thinking that I am very honest, but my body has its own ideas, brother...
"Lin Yi, what's going on over there?" Lao Mo used his extraordinary power for a while, but felt something was not right, as if the taste was not pure enough, so he gritted his teeth and focused his attention on Lin Yi, who was focused on the art building.
Seeing Lin Yi's current moment, Lao Mo's eyes subconsciously drifted behind Lin Yi, as if there was some strange shadow appearing behind him.
Lao Mo opened his mouth, and a rare look of astonishment flashed through his eyes. Then he thought about something at lightning speed and changed his words: "This way... you sense my power and follow my strength. Time is running out. You must succeed and not fail!"
Lin Yi's expression froze when he heard this, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"
It was not difficult for Lin Yi to sense Lao Mo's power, especially under Lao Mo's guidance. It was as smooth as being led into a room by someone's hand.
The extraordinary power in Lao Mo's body can be said to be complex, but pure and frightening.
Speaking of mixed feelings, Lao Mo has extraordinary powers of all colors in his body, comparable to angel sculptures.
Speaking of purity, no matter what color the power is in Lao Mo's body, they have formed their own "circles" according to their own trajectories. They do not conflict with each other. They are all mixed in different proportions according to Lao Mo's mobilization, resulting in various qualitative changes.
Now, he discovered that the extraordinary power in Lao Mo's body was pouring out of his body like a torrent, affecting the spatial fluctuations within a certain range around him!
Such a fluctuation was extremely violent at first, but soon began to coordinate with the surrounding storms, as if looking for some common frequency.
"Is this...'the field'?!" Lin Yi reacted instantly, "Old Mo has expanded his domain!"
