Chapter 638 Wei Liang and the "Principal"
Lin Yi's mind suddenly flashed into the image of Angers, a handsome man who mixed the style of an English gentleman and an old gangster.
Immediately afterwards, there was a series of "click...click...click..." sounds. It was obvious that a person was tapping his fingers on the table, seemingly lost in some kind of thinking.
The picture in front of him gradually became clearer, and the surrounding environment and the figures in the environment gradually emerged.
At first glance, this is a dormitory.
A very normal dormitory, almost no different from Lin Yi's impression of his own dormitory.
There are not many people in the dormitory.
Besides Wei Liang, there is only "himself", plus a stranger - no, that's not right!
Look carefully!
This does not seem to be a dormitory at all!
There are not just a few of them here, there are some, no, there are many, many, many, many more people here!
He could feel that there were some existences that could only be captured purely by feeling, and that could not even be called "human beings", staying quietly around them.
The existence of these feelings caused this small square table in the dormitory to begin to derive a kind of council meeting at this moment - the sense of déjà vu of a Western cabinet meeting.
In a room with uneven light distribution, there is the dormitory in the center, and there are terraced seats surrounding the dormitory. The seats are hidden in the shadows, as if they are sitting with countless people.
In this cabinet-meeting-like environment, the limited light almost entirely fell on Wei Liang.
The only stranger whose image he could see clearly was a handsome silver-haired middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man's silver hair is very delicately combed, his facial lines are clean and neat, and there are some light white beards on his jawline.
He was wearing a crisp black suit with slightly rolled cuffs. His image was very similar to that of Dumbledore in middle age, but to Lin Yi he felt more in line with the Principal Angers he had in mind.
Almost as soon as he saw this person, a title came to Lin Yi's mind - "Principal"!
That "principal" of S City University!
They have actually seen the "principal" a long time ago?
And that mean voice at the beginning was undoubtedly Wei Liang!
At this time, Wei Liang seemed to be negotiating with the "Principal". He was holding his cheek with one hand, and the index finger of the other hand was gently tapping the table. His eyes were somewhat distracted as he looked at the "Principal" sitting directly opposite him.
At this moment, the momentum of this legendary "principal" was completely suppressed by Wei Liang.
"Is this still the Liangzi I know?" Lin Yi wiped his eyes. If the person in front of him didn't feel exactly the same as "Wei Liang" and "he" was also present, he would definitely doubt the authenticity of the other person.
After all, he had never seen Wei Liang look like this, a combination of laziness and solemnity, calm on the surface but exuding an indescribable and powerful sense of oppression.
At this moment, Lin Yi heard the "principal" speak slowly: "If nothing goes wrong, this dark area of City S University can still exist in a stable state for hundreds of years, or even nearly a thousand years..."
"But, I can't wait. You, you...since you appear in this 'time', it naturally means that you can't wait either."
"In this case, why not take this opportunity to amplify your and my advantages to form an exponential breakthrough?"
"Du... Du... Du... Du..."
Wei Liang tapped the table gently.
「哎呀呀……所以我说难搞呀……」
「被你小子触摸到「最初」的门槛,我就知道问题要大发了……而且你是什么性子,我认识你这么多年,也早就门清了……」
"You are not here to discuss with me, but to inform me..."
"It's difficult...it's really difficult..."
Wei Liang said it was difficult, but he couldn't help but tilt the corners of his mouth upwards.
What shocked Lin Yi was not the way Wei Liang and the "Principal" met face to face, but the way Wei Liang called him "Principal" one after another, "You boy". However, when he called him like this, the "Principal" across from him didn't look unhappy at all.
"Principal" asked: "Don't you think so?"
"Since that time, until now, for countless years, I have only heard about you in historical legends... But this time, you have appeared, and you have appeared in front of me in this posture."
"Legend, no, even in the legend, you may not be qualified to see the "Time Council"..."
“This has to make me think that you have been waiting for me to touch the threshold of the “initial” before you appear, right? "
"Just as you understand me, I really understand the logic of your behavior too well..."
"Not everyone is qualified to be on your gambling table. They are not qualified, and neither am I... But at this moment, I am qualified to be the "chip" in your hand. "
"And, I feel it more clearly than ever before... You have actually been waiting for me for a long time."
"Oh, my, ah..." Wei Liang sighed with a smile, "It's not easy, it's not easy..."
"First of all, I want to correct you. I don't know anything about the "Time Council", and don't just listen to it... Secondly, your cognition is just your cognition. "
"But, if we have to do it, we don't have no chance at all."
"So, do you have any plans?" "The principal" asked.
Wei Liang said: "That's not the logic... It's not what I have planned, but what you have planned. The plan in your heart makes me have to appear here."
"The principal" seemed to realize something, and his face changed slightly: "You mean, my leaving will lead to the destruction of the world?"
"It's just the butterfly effect, you don't have to blame yourself too much." Wei Liang didn't refute, he just offered useless comfort.
The "Principal" looked bitter: "If the consequences are so serious, I have to weigh the pros and cons..."
Wei Liang said: "Then you misunderstood... I don't mean to comfort you, I just want to tell you that in countless timelines, there are always a few "events" that are bound to happen no matter what. "
"The birth of various major events cannot be played by one person..."
"The principal" said helplessly: "'The time compensation theorem', right..."
Wei Liang said slowly: "To put it more distantly, it's like the demise of those ancient civilizations, and to say it more recently, it's like the demise of Xiaozhi... Some things are called "self-destruction," aren't they?"
"It's hard to say Is it true that the circle was closed because of Lao Lin’s last few words of joy? Oops, did I let it slip..."
Wei Liang glanced at "Lin Yi" sitting next to him, and "Lin Yi" nodded understandingly.
"You see..." He looked at the "Principal", "It's impossible! But since it is a 'established' thing, then we can at least control it."
"Another example is...'your voluntary departure'. Among all factors, this is at least the one we can subjectively control."
"But that's what makes it so difficult... Sigh..." Wei Liang rubbed his temples, "The more detailed you know, the more comprehensive you have to consider. It's so nerve-wracking... It's better not to know anything at all. When disaster strikes, everyone throws away their trump cards and lets them see if they can fight or not..."
Lin Yi was dumbfounded. He could understand the strange terms one after another, such as established events and butterfly effects, but he couldn't understand them all together!
And what the hell is the "Time Council" that Wei Liang denies?
It doesn’t look like a nothing!
However, from this perspective, Lin Yi knew that Liangzi seemed to be very arrogant, but in fact he meant something different. If there hadn't been some talk, Liangzi would have refused from the beginning, and would not have talked so much nonsense with him.
"The principal" sighed helplessly: "If it really breaks out, there is absolutely no way to deal with it at the current level of the world. The whole world is no more than an insignificant speck of dust in the torrent of the times." In that era when the original adults still existed, there was almost no way..."
"What is the future left to mankind...?"
"The principal" looked at Wei Liang, his resolute face like a lion couldn't help but be filled with sadness, a look of compassion.
Wei Liang tapped the tabletop "Tuk...Tuk...Tuk...".
h "Are you introspecting yourself, or are you asking me?"
h "Of course I'm asking you."
h "Then I don't know." Wei Liang shook his head slightly.
"The existence of gambling against time, in the end, can't see through time... I don't believe it." "The principal" said.
The sound of tapping on the table stopped abruptly in Wei Liang's hand.
He slowly sat upright, and the light and shadow from above tilted, illuminating his face in an eerie and terrifying way.
Lin Yi then discovered that Wei Liang was not wearing a peaked cap on his head.
"Playing with time...? You are presumptuously evaluating something that you know nothing about..."
"I know better than you about the timeline. As for the future left to mankind... I also see it. Not yet. "
"The future of mankind is like looking at flowers in the mist, or watching the moon in the river. There is a trace of reality in the illusion, and a trace of brokenness in the reality..."
"In you. When you think you are working hard, there are some people who work ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times harder than you...and you are still making assumptions."
"The principal" said frankly: "So, what is your plan and what you need me to do, I will definitely cooperate."
Wei Liang slowly leaned into the shadow, and the shadow behind him seemed to have materialized, holding up his back.
"If you want to go to sea, then go to sea. Before you go to sea, leave us what should be left to us, leave what should be left on campus in the campus, and we will naturally come to give you the details."
"That's it? Is it that simple?" "The principal" looked surprised.
"Yes, that's it...is it very simple?" Wei Liang said, "emmm...well, it is indeed not a difficult thing for you."
The "Principal" asked: "So, how many things do I need to leave?"
Wei Liang said: "A total of two are needed."
The "Principal" looked slightly moved. Wei Liang said two kinds, not two.
"The first one is left in the school. I need you to leave the "Bronze Key" and the "Ouroboros Ring" in the bell tower with the "Mourner" in the bell tower. We will go find them. "
"You are talking about "Night Watch-02", right..."
"Yes... it should be "Night Watch" now. Wei Liang nodded slightly, "Just give these two things to it. We will find a way to get the time compass "hour zero" ourselves. "
"The Principal" said: "After the sacrifice of "Night Watch-01", the time compass collapsed. I vaguely felt that the "Bronze Key" was related to it, but the search has been fruitless... I didn't expect that you already know the clues, so I will give you those two things. "
Wei Liang continued: "The second one is left for us. I need the drawings for the construction of the campus."
Wei Liang said slowly: "Only the group of "architects" who originally built the campus have the drawings of the campus, and each architect only masters a part of it, and can only be composed when they are completely pieced together. ”
“But I know, this is a cover.”
“You have the complete blueprint in your hands.”
“Now, hand it over, and I won’t follow you around anymore. You should believe that I can carry out violent actions in the campus, but then the campus will collapse.”
"Give me the blueprint, and after we study it, we will find a nearly perfect course of action." Release "her" completely, right? "
"Ouch...it's so difficult..." Wei Liang laughed helplessly, "You discovered it, so will you hand it over?"
"Fellow." "Principal" said.
Wei Liang was slightly startled.
"I don't believe 'her', but I believe in the adults' evaluation of you, and I believe in you." "The principal" said, "The adults say that you are a gambler with a bottom line. No matter how unreliable the process of doing things is, the answers you give are reliable."
The corner of Wei Liang's mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn't help scratching his head lightly, and Lin Yi seemed to hear him muttering: "Damn... my image is really so damn good, why don't I know it myself?"
The "Principal" said, and took out a set of booklets comparable to the "Five-Year College Entrance Examination and Three-Year Simulation" and placed it on this small desk.
The cover of this book is a castle with the words "Layer Anchors and Architectural Design between Black Moon Outpost and S City University"...
