Chapter 653 "Principal Code"
"Maozi, put the notebook away first."
"Hmm." Mao Feiyang nodded, walked to the desk that was like an old tree root, picked up only two-thirds of the notebook, and put it into the green robe of the art student.
"This notebook...? Is it now the "principal's notebook"? Lin Yi asked.
Tian Bufan said: "Isn't it? The principal didn't come back, but didn't we jump over to find him with our notebook?"
"This notebook was originally given to you by Fu Sheng Wei Liang Tian Zun, but in terms of timeline, this is the notebook that the principal gave to Fu Sheng Wei Liang Tian Zun, but through our hands, we gave it the awakening of its mission."
"Cause and effect are connected... just like the Ouroboros."
Lin Yi pursed his lips: "So, Maozi took this notebook, met Kuai Kuai, and then left the art class, then joined us and left the campus. Our apparent mission is over... right?"
"The apparent mission is a very correct statement." Tian Bufan said, "This mission is The agreement between Fusheng Wei Liang Tianzun and the official. "
"Of course, private life is our focus."
Lin Yi followed up subconsciously: "You should be able to tell me what the "side mission" is now, right?"
Tian Bufan shook his head helplessly, and then said with a faint smile: "Don't you already know?"
Lin Yi was stunned: "You mean...?"
As he was speaking, those memory fragments from the gray world finally followed and slowly poured into his mind.
Tian Bufan also slowly explained: "Before the "Black Moon Blood Disaster" occurred, the "original apostle" explored the existence of the "root" through the great voyage. In countless collisions with the "angels", he gradually discovered the essence of the "root" through the "angels"..."
"The essence of the "root"? Lin Yi felt the slightest pressure, "Is it the relationship between 'books and ashes' you mentioned before?"
This ashes is not that ashes. It is the burning of the world by the "root", not the ashes of the ashes apostles derived from the "Holy Sun".
"That's right." Tian Bufan nodded slightly, "If this wisp of ashes cannot be annihilated, it will ignite the entire world and rekindle it into a flame. Once this flame appears, it will ignite the world and even the entire time dimension. Everything will be burned up."
"The world you and I know will become a real ruin, no, not even ruins will be left."
Lin Yichen. Chanted: "Collapse? Black hole?"
Tian Bufan said: "Fusheng Wei Liang Tianzun speculated that it will become nothingness, just like the night sky after fireworks bloom, complete nothingness."
"Then... what is our side mission?" Lin Yi vaguely guessed, "Is it to extinguish this ashes? Us?"
"Saint Sun" seemed to have mentioned some kind of plan.
He pointed at himself, with expressions like "Huh? Me?" all over his head, as if he was possessed by a running boy.
Tian Bufan said: "Of course it's not just that...there are Fu Sheng Wei Liang Tianzun, Ji Fa, and the "first apostles" who are still trying to accumulate strength here at Black Moon Outpost. "
"Let's release them, and then go to sea together to destroy the "source"..."
Lin Yi tentatively replied: "...extinguish?"
"It cannot be extinguished." Tian Bufan smiled bitterly and shook his head. The leader said, "The entire time dimension is a book, we are the symbols in the book, and the "source" is the soot that lit the book... What we can do is not to put out the soot, but to try our best to use the strongest power we can use to tear off the pages stained with soot..."
“Time” and “dimension” may be torn apart as a result, and only the part that remains can survive. "
"This is our mission, or...'destiny'."
"From the time we were born, we have been destined to rush for this...final destiny."
"'Destiny'... Ouroboros... time loop..." Lin Yi squinted his eyes, as if there were some memories trying to break through the blockade, but they could never appear.
"In my limited memory fragments, I seem to hear the "Holy Sun" talking about the origin and so on. The "Mist Whisperer" knows us... and says that we are "hybrid" and fragments of the "Holy Sun"..."
"What exactly are we? Since we are not the "original apostles" and we are not beings like "Mist Hunters", then what exactly are we? "
Tian Bufan pursed his lips and said, "Do you still remember the sculpture of the World Tree in the lobby of the Art Building?"
""Living towards Death."" Lin Yidao.
"We are "born towards death". We were born from the death of the "Holy Sun", inherited part of the authority of the "Holy Sun" and surpassed it..."
"Our power is the source of the power of the "Ashes Apostles", permeating the entire time dimension, just like Barry Allen created the Speed Force and derived it to the entire timeline. "
"I told you before that the principal's power relied on the original power of the "Ash Apostle" to penetrate time and project onto the campus in the form of the "Original Ash Apostle" - that's what I meant. "
"Our power is the source of the power of the Principal's "Original Ash Apostle"... But it may not be "our power at this moment". It may be in the past or in the future, because the existence of time in high dimensions is not linear, so once a graph-level or dimensional-level power appears, it will continue to penetrate into the entire dimension, just like the penetration and spread of the "root". "
Lin Yi looked complicated and asked again: "Then... that "Red Star", what kind of pilot is it? "
"This... I don't know." Tian Bufan shook his head, "Maybe you can ask Fusheng Wei Liang Tianzun, but he doesn't seem to tell us right away."
Tian Bufan said helplessly: "Our existence itself may be a paradoxical cycle. When something is completed, maybe we will disappear along with it."
"Perhaps we have died long ago, and are just ghosts in the time cycle, or we do not exist at all, and are ghosts that persist in paradox..."
"No one knows us, but we have transcended time. Only the existence of time, Fu Sheng Wei Liang Tianzun will remember us."
Tian Bufan said quietly, his tone so calm that it revealed unspeakable sadness.
“In the abyss of fog and darkness, lost souls pursue phantoms”... This admonition has already recorded everything. "
Lin Yi pursed his lips, and suddenly felt some uncomfortable emotions surging in his chest. He wanted to vent them, but he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
"Boss... Li Huiyuan, the head teacher, will they forget us?"
"Yes... maybe the timeline has been overwritten and we do not exist in their lives at all?" Tian Bufan smiled helplessly, "Don't care so much... You'd better hope that the boss who has recovered his memory is one of ours."
"I suddenly hope she is not one of ours..." Lin Yi said sadly, "If she is an enemy, she won't worry too much. If she is a group and ours disappears, will she sometimes think that there was a fool who couldn't be kicked to death no matter how hard he kicked?"
"Okay..." Lin Yi shrugged, "Then I don't want to...so what we have to do now is to return to the Art Building and meet Kuai Kuai, right?"
"Yes." Mao Feiyang said, "At this point in time, we still have to hurry up to release 'her', but this is okay. When I went to the bedroom last time, I opened a back door for myself. After Kuai Kuai joins us, I can rush there quickly."
"It won't take a lot of time."
Mao Feiyang said, walked to the desk, put his hand on the "Star Dream Crystal", and a magical scene happened. During this period, mist continued to seep around the "Star Dream Crystal", and in the mist, countless trivial secret patterns emerged. Those secret patterns wrapped the "Star Dream Crystal", slowly swirling and twisting, and then, a mini vortex appeared in Mao Feiyang's hand.
The whirlpool swallowed up the "Star Dream Crystal" and gradually disappeared into the air.
"This...?" Lin Yi was stunned by Mao Feiyang's operation, but he immediately reacted, "Are you transferring the "Star Dream Crystal" to Kuai Kuai? "
"How can it be that simple?" Mao Feiyang gave him a roll of his eyes, "Wasn't it originally planned and operated by you? But there were some incidents before you came back, and we didn't have more time to send Kuai Kuai. Something."
"So I put it away." Mao Fei raised his arms and saw some complicated patterns on his wrists, like garlands woven from the vines of the world tree.
""Star Dream Crystal"? Lin Yi asked in surprise.
"Hmm." Mao Feiyang said, "It's just a small trick from the art department. It's similar to the way those art students painted the smiling angels on the walls, but I have more micro-manipulation."
"It won't be too late to hand it over to Kuai Kuai when we meet up."
Mao Feiyang said and walked towards the door of the "Principal's Office", but at this moment, Lin Yi suddenly said: "Hey, wait a minute!"
"What?" Mao Feiyang asked.
Lin Yidao: "I suddenly thought of a question. It's been here since then. Why haven't we seen the principal's code?"
"The principal's code?" Tian Bufan asked, "At this time, Do you think the existence of the principal's code has any significance? "
Lin Yi was stunned. Yes, the code in the campus is used to restrict the units with corresponding identities and provide them with a safe state at critical times. Does the principal need a code?
It seems...not necessary.
Tian Bufan said: "If you insist on insisting on the Principal's Code, then I can tell you clearly now...The principal itself is a moving "Principal's Code." When hearing this explanation, are you more disappointed or shocked?"
Lin Yi said frankly Said: "If I had come here before, I would have been both shocked and disappointed, but now... I suddenly feel very normal."
The principal... does not need to be bound by the code, or in other words, any code is pale and powerless for an existence at the level of the principal.
"If you are really interested..." Mao Feiyang's hand let go of the doorknob of the principal's office, turned around and walked towards the desk.
Coming to the desk, Mao Feiyang reached under the desk and pulled out the drawer that had been hidden.
"Look, this is the "Principal's Code" you want to know." Lin Yi's eyes narrowed and he quickly looked over. He saw a file bag that seemed to be sealed with transparent plastic in the drawer. There was only a thin piece of paper in the bag.
lveslves -- [When you see these words, it means that you are qualified to inherit the status of "Principal]." 】
【Before leaving, I have left the "Principal" identification tag on the back of this piece of paper. Take it out and you will inherit the name of "Principal" and need to strictly implement the "Principal Code". 】
【"Principal's Code":
As a principal, you do not need to abide by any of the rules, but you must always keep in mind the following three points:
1. Fear is human instinct, courage is the praise of human beings, but if you want to stand firmly on the side of human beings after sensing the power of the "root", unrivaled self-will is the quality that is truly worthy of praise.
If we can get to this point, I think there is no need to say more about the rest.
The rest will be left to you, successor. 】
【Time will remember everything we do. 】
"This is the "Principal's Code"? It's so short..." Lin Yi reached out and gently touched the plastic-like cover. He saw countless colorful colors flowing on it, so magnificent that it made people suspicious.
"It is not so much the "Principal's Code" as it is the advice given by the "principal" to his successor. "Tian Bufan said, "Don't be fooling around. You don't want to be the "principal", do you? "
Lin Yi slowly loosened his fingers, but narrowed his eyes and pondered: "In a certain timeline, am I succeeding as the "principal" from this moment on? 》
Tian Bufan was silent.
Mao Feiyang also fell silent.
Soon, Tian Bufan said: "The 'Principal' will come back from the sea of gray fog. "
Lin Yi pursed his lips: "Well... So, no one needs to succeed, right?"
"That's right." Tian Bufan said with certainty.
"Are you still looking? If not, I will push the drawer." Mao Feiyang said.
“I won’t read it anymore,” Lin Yidao said.
If he becomes the "principal", it means that he will stay here completely.
As long as the "principal" can come back, he does not need to take this step.
