Chapter 453 Ash Apostle is not any unit!

Chapter 453 Ash Apostle is not any unit!

  "Class 2, Group B...?"

  Although his vision was blurred, Lin Yi's will was extremely clear. When he saw the house number of his class, he was startled.

 Looking at "him"'s current state again, a creepy feeling instantly filled his heart.

  "Could it be...?!"

  Before he could react, he saw himself reaching out and pressing the door handle. The next moment, the sound of the lock bolt turning "click, click, click..." was heard in the door. The sound was very long, as if the door had been locked more than a few times.

 This also made Lin Yi feel more uneasy and weird.

 Finally, the door opened...

     
  With some strong expectation to see what happened, he followed the erratic vision and slowly entered the classroom.

 In the classroom at this moment, the lights were turned off, and a large number of experience students huddled under the desks at the back of the lecture theater, hugging the legs of the desks and staring at the ground. A strong fear spread like gasoline on the water.

  In the dark classroom, there are figures that look like tombstones. These are all puppet sculptures. They regain their vitality in the darkness, making a "rustling" sound as they move...

 Outside the explosion-proof glass windows that were filled with water vapor, there was a heavy rain in the sky. The white lightning that tore the sky apart caused the classroom to constantly change between black and white. The entire environment was as gloomy as a gloomy ocean trench that could not let in light.

Suddenly, Lin Yi saw a dim, swaying light...

The light of the flashlight!

    A dummy sculpture holding a flashlight is slowly dragging in the classroom. At its hand, there is a dark human-shaped object...

  Little genius! !

    "No way...?!"

   "This is really the classroom on the evening of May 6th...?!"

   "When the little genius died, I hid In the classroom over there..."

  No wonder Lin Yi knew the moment when the lights went out so well...

  Because the "conceptual sculpture" at that time contained the "will" of his future self? !

Lin Yi's scalp was numb as if countless needles were constantly stimulating his scalp. He was unwilling but wanted to see if there was "himself" squatting over the desk for final confirmation.

  So he stared longingly at the back row of the classroom...

  Until this moment, he had not realized that an evil and strange sense of closed loop, with a strong and indescribable fear of being shrouded in fate, was slowly falling on him...

  No wonder the "conceptual sculpture" seemed to be looking for something. Unexpectedly, it was the "present me" who was looking for the "past me"?

  Or, for me when I first entered school, I had no idea that I was looking for myself in the future?

 He ​​thought of the moment before repairing the city wall in the gymnasium. He had had a similar premonition in his heart, but it was not as strong as it was now.

  At this moment, he heard "himself" seeming to be saying something...

  It was a language similar to a precept, obscure, lengthy, and intermittent, but at this time, Lin Yi seemed to be able to hear something, as if he was saying...

  "Listen to me..."

  "Say …”

   “Don’t...”

   “Save...”

   “Maozi...”

   “Run away...”

   “Tomorrow...”

   “Time...”

   “Run...”

    

    

     

     

    

     

     

     

     

    

     

     

    

   “Run...”

    Surprisingly, there is a voice from the third will!

 Lin Yi's mind was shaken, and he felt as if he had fallen into some kind of terrifying reincarnation.

  He thought about the "Flash Paradox" - people will never know how many Flashes were in the house the night Flash's mother was murdered.

  "Could it be that... I am also caught in this paradox?"

  Is there another me from the future, at this moment, conveying a message to me in the past (the evening of May 6)? Or is it just sending a message to me now (at noon on May 10th)? !

"Leave tomorrow" means...let me leave tomorrow, or is it saying that I should escape from the campus on the second day of May 6, that is, on the morning of May 7?

  May 7th...

  "Wait...!"

   Another dazzling light flashed in Lin Yi's heart.

  "Mr. Tian seemed to have said that he tried to leave the campus on May 7th, but found that he could not leave..."

  "On the evening of May 6th... the conceptual sculpture is the ashes apostle, that is, "me"... I have indeed been to Mr. Tian's classroom. Could it be that Mr. Tian got some information from it...?!"

   What will happen in the future to make me leave immediately after entering the school?

 But there is no way to leave on May 7th!

 What the hell is going on? !

 Lin Yi's mind was shaken, as if he was trapped in some kind of terrible time loop.

 At this moment, the vision in front of him began to become broken and blurred again, filled with floating lights, phantoms and some unclear illusions.

  He tried to look at the back of the lecture theater. For some reason, his subconscious wanted him to look over there...

  But when he looked over there, he found that he could not see anything clearly. Senluo's classroom seemed to be filled with an inexplicable power. The aura exuding from that power made him feel palpitations and terror, but was there anything beyond common sense over there?

  Could it be... Wei Liang?

“Liangzi on the night of May 6th...could it be possible that he had performed some unknown operation?” Lin Yi was a little shocked. He felt that he would never be able to guess how much Liangzi had hidden.

 But what if this feeling does not come from Wei Liang?

  On the evening of May 6th, there were experts in the classroom...? !

 At this moment, a fierce sound of breaking wind sounded in his ears.

            
   An iron chain with a faint light shot out from outside the door, wrapping around "him" like a flexible snake!

 At the door of the classroom, the forest-white mist continued to surge, and the end of the iron chain extended to the hands of the iron tower-like figure in the mist.

  「Security!」

Lin Yi immediately thought of the "plot" on the night of May 6. The security guard dragged the "Ash Apostle" out of the classroom using chains, and then the classroom was safe.

 At this moment, from a long distance, Lin Yi could only see the flowing mist wandering around the security guard like a thick quilt.

 Under the mist, the security guard’s golden eyes were like the reactor on the chest of a super mecha, flowing with a deep golden light.

      

  Thunder tore through the night sky, and the security guard at the door was like a mountain rising from the sea level out of a black ocean. The strong sense of oppression made all the puppet sculptures in the classroom lose their mobility.

  “Get out!”

The majestic sound was like thunder exploding in the low air, echoing in the classroom. The next moment, the iron chain tightened with a clang, and a huge force came. Lin Yi felt like "he" was being pulled out.

 His vision flickered rapidly, and he left the classroom amidst the blurred light and shadow and distorted illusions.

  There is nothing wrong with every song, every post, and every content. Look at them one by one!

 As soon as his vision came to the corridor, a figure in the corridor immediately attracted his attention!

           

     "No, it’s the head teacher-039!"

The figure was slender, with graceful lines, and the lines drawn out in the fog were almost perfect. She was wearing a uniform that covered the whole body like the head teacher-040. It was difficult to catch her based on perception, but Lin Yi saw her at a glance with his keen insight...

The next moment, his vision quickly collapsed, and so did his ears. Only the sound of "bang bang bang" was left, and he seemed to have fallen into a gravityless passage. On the four walls of the passage were countless swirling patterns like a starry night, which were images formed after countless blurry images were distorted. What should have been experienced by the "conceptual sculpture" was there, but he could not capture it at all, as if those images had nothing to do with him.

 Suddenly, he felt something from one of the swirling patterns...

He seemed to see a man in sloppy clothes suspended in the air, holding a cane and confronting "him". On the other side, a moat-like dormitory building rose from the ground, confronting "him" like an ancient giant sword...

  He saw Mu Daxian's figure appearing next to the corridor of the teaching building again...

  This was the scene on the evening of May 8th...

  It was very blurry, but he could distinguish it.

 Before he could take a good look at the canteen owner, the swirling pattern left him, but soon another vortex hit him...

 This time, he saw a broken glass window, and ashes all over the sky rose from the void and slowly fell down...

“He” was in front of the broken glass window, staring blankly at the path of ashes in front of the window, like a sculpture.

 Suddenly, the movement behind him attracted his attention.

 As soon as he turned around, he saw...himself!

 That "him" took Li Huiyuan into the abandoned classroom in the morning!

  "Huh?!" Lin Yi was shocked and suddenly realized. At this moment, his perspective came to the "Ash Apostle Fireman" (the non-existent person)!

   "What's going on?!"

   He was confused. If there was some connection between the "conceptual sculpture" and him, he could understand it, but what did the "Apostle of Ashes and the Fire Man" have to do with him?

 Wouldn't it be "crossing the stage"? !

"Perhaps we can communicate...?" Lin Yi's eyes lit up. What would happen if two people communicated across time and space?

 Before he could react, "Ash Apostle Fireman" fired at him at that time.

 Lin Yi quickly said: "The other me, we should talk!"

 But his voice didn't seem to come out, and at that time he also made the operation that felt very familiar to him.

 "Come on, let's fight to the death!" At that time, he showed a "high-spirited" look.

 【Farewell——】Lin Yi shouted, but when it fell into the mouth of "Ash Apostle Fire Man", he let out a long roar that sounded like "war-hungry".

 Then there was the scene of him being ruthlessly thrown out of the door by his then self...

As soon as he went out, his vision collapsed again, and he soon returned to the passage accompanied by the "clang-clang-clang" sound of the wind.

 At this moment, everything around him was leaving him, as if it was being peeled off bit by bit.

 Finally, when the wind calmed down and the light and shadow dissipated, he found that his vision had returned to the door of the canteen.

 At this time, his flesh and blood are still growing among the burning ashes, and the muscle fibers are also reflecting the glaze-like brilliance, like diamonds, like glass, but more like some kind of tempered substance.

 His body is constantly being reshaped. During the remodeling, his flesh and blood draw strength from the burning ashes and begin to continuously refine and sublimate themselves.

Burning ashes no longer seem to be able to cause harm to him. Looking at such ashes, he sincerely feels a sense of affinity, and has a strange illusion that "the ashes and I are one."

  As time goes by, his body is reborn in a more bizarre and extraordinary posture...

  He suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but glance at his wrist.

11:20.

 Time is passing.

 That’s good.

 But among the burning ashes, he found that his watch had no effect at all - no, his clothes actually had no effect either.

 Dead things...seem to be unaffected by ashes and flames?

 He did not waste time on this issue, but took advantage of the time when his body was being reshaped by the burning ashes to "take the time" to review the scenes he just saw... As for the picture, Lin Yi really thinks that "Ashe Apostle·Conceptual Sculpture" is related to his future self, and he may even think that it is related to the time dimension. However, "Ashe Apostle·Fire Man" is simply something made up by Shan Nan and has nothing to do with him.

 In this way, the conjecture that the "Ashes Apostle" is "him in the future" is denied.

 But in this case, how to explain the connection between him and the "Ashes Apostle"?

  He found some clues through the limited information currently available.

 First of all, "Ashe Apostle" is unique. At least no matter how many units currently enter the "Ashe Apostle" path, there can only be one final "Ashe Apostle".

 This is just like countless monks chasing the only spot to become an immortal. Currently, he is just a member of the "immortal road". Only by completing this "immortal road" can he be called an "immortal", that is, the "Ashes Apostle."

 So what about the "glorious evolution" pursued by the weird art female teacher?

  “Wait!”

  Lin Yi suddenly understood!

  "Is there a possibility that the "Ashes Apostle" is not an independent individual, but... some kind of his special "state"?!"

 Could it be that the "Ashes Apostle" does not refer to the people who have completed the "immortal road", but refers to... the "immortal road" itself!

 All units that have entered the "Immortal Road" path are "Ashes Apostles", which is a special state of "carrying ashes and not dying", especially...units in the "Ashes Burning State"!

  He thought about what the "conceptual sculpture" looked like, and also thought about Tian Bufan's speculation - "the conceptual sculpture is a quantum state projection of some kind of high-level existence in the real world"!

  "Conceptual level" is indeed correct, and "quantum state" is not wrong either!
