Rules-related weird stories: 4016
#271 - The buff is full, and the layer is dropped and offset
At the same time, the information on the notice board in front of the gymnasium immediately surfaced in his mind:
"[The gymnasium's construction location is a bit special, the wind will be a bit strong, don't worry, as long as there is no rain or fog, it is a normal phenomenon.]"
"[If you find it's raining on the way to the gymnasium, please decide which direction to go based on the first building you see:
1. If you are facing the gymnasium, please rush towards the gymnasium on the correct road at the fastest speed… …]"
This information was still constantly surfacing, but Lin Yi didn't continue to pay attention to it, because it was no longer of much significance.
The dense green belt that blotted out the sky completely blocked his vision, making it impossible to see anything else, so how could he talk about the first building he saw!
‘Wait! I seem to understand!’ Lin Yi's eyes lit up.
‘The 'finding rain' and the 'first' building seen mentioned on the notice board do not refer to the same point in time!’
‘Rain is rain!’
‘When I find it's raining, I can still continue to move until I see the lamppost, then I can choose to hug the lamppost and wait for the Security Emperor to come and save me.’
‘However, during the moving process, I can also decide to execute a subsequent rule based on the first building I see!’
‘If the road is right, I will see the gymnasium!’
‘If the road is wrong, I will leave the gymnasium area and return to the teaching building!’
‘If I get lost, I will see that non-existent castle… …’
‘Moreover, that castle is basically the art building! According to the requirements of the "Student Code of Conduct", if I see it, I need to mark it on the map, don't go in, and then report it to the teacher afterwards!’
‘The most important thing now… is to first find the first building to use as a reference!’
Lin Yi had a flash of inspiration and looked at Wei Liang beside him: “Liangzi… how old do you think the trees here are?”
Wei Liang was stunned for a moment: “Huh? What are you asking this for? I'm not an expert in this area, so I can't say for sure how old the trees are, but it looks like they grew naturally, after all, they are so tall…”
When Lin Yi heard Wei Liang's words, he calculated "the height of the trees that Wei Liang saw in his eyes" through Wei Liang's line of sight, and judged that what Wei Liang saw should be the normal green belt, not his towering trees.
His heart became more certain, so he said: “Liangzi, you run first, and I'll follow behind you… just like when we left the student passage before.”
“Just run like this?” Wei Liang was obviously a little puzzled, but when he thought of the scene of carrying Lin Yi down the stairs, he couldn't help but worry, “Do you need me to help you?”
The pressure from the layers that Lin Yi was enduring was completely different from Wei Liang, feeling the increasingly fierce wind and those bullet-like raindrops, he knew that the time left for him was running out, so he reached out to Wei Liang, then gritted his teeth and said loudly: “Go! Hurry up! While I can still hold on!”
“Uh… okay, okay, okay! I know, I know!” Wei Liang quickly said, muttering in a low voice, “Why are you shouting so loudly… I'm not deaf.”
But despite his muttering, his movements were not ambiguous at all, he let go of his feet and walked towards the gymnasium.
Lin Yi took a deep breath and quickly followed, facing the wind and rain and moving forward.
From time to time, he gritted his teeth and glanced at the surrounding environment, only to see sparse sunlight penetrating this strange rain curtain, but it failed to dispel the haze it brought.
The light was distorted in the raindrops, refracting colorful and bizarre colors, as if a gateway to another dimension was slowly opening…
There seemed to be children's laughter in the wind, but there was a sharp and piercing feeling in those laughter, the distorted vision in front of Lin Yi also trembled with it, he tried to capture this extraordinary picture, but he could only record a blur and chaos.
Raindrops fell on the ground, falling among the surrounding trees, making a low and strange sound, as if the footsteps of some kind of creature were echoing.
The oncoming gale faintly permeated an indescribable smell, both familiar and unfamiliar, making people can't help but associate it with the appearance of dried stinky fish and rotten shrimp in the deep sea, or the appearance of those forgotten creatures in the ancient forest being corroded by time little by little after their death…
‘Sea breeze with rain… buffs stacked full!’ Lin Yi gritted his teeth, hoping that he could escape this area before his cognition collapsed and his spirit fell.
Strangely, under such distorted visual feedback and cognitive overwriting, his spirit was as clear as if he had been sprinkled with mint juice.
He looked at Wei Liang and found that some raindrops penetrated Wei Liang's body, while others did not.
It seemed that a rain appeared in both the real layer and the abnormal layer, just like when night fell, the real mountain mist and the mist carrying strong pollution in the layer poured into the campus together.
‘Even strange things need to rely on the medium of reality to invade the campus!’
‘Even solar rain cannot directly change the existence of sunlight!’
‘Xu Shunkang was right, sunlight is the biggest reliance during the day!’
‘It's not that solar rain didn't pollute us, but because it's solar rain, it didn't completely pollute us!’
《It doesn't matter if you get caught in the rain, just take a shower.》
In his mind, he thought of what Wei Liang said on the way back to the teaching building before.
That sentence at that time seemed to reassure him now like a boomerang!
It's really okay to get caught in the rain, as long as you don't get lost, keep your life, and take a shower in the swimming pool bathroom in the gymnasium, you can purify these negative effects!
So everything is about holding on.
‘As long as I hold on until I'm in front of the gymnasium, everything will be fine!’
Although the picture in his vision had been distorted into something unrecognizable, like crazy things composed of countless wriggling small spirals, or like some tadpoles wagging their tails, constantly drilling upwards somewhere.
Lin Yi focused all his attention on Wei Liang, following him closely and rushing forward, while the crazy green belt seen from the corner of his eye became more and more hazy and terrifying due to the shift in the focus of his vision.
After those trees in the green belt were stretched into towering trees, they began to sway with the rhythm of the distorted vision. If the overwriting given by the bandaged pseudo-art student only trapped Lin Yi with a painting, then now the whole world had become a landscape in a pot, and he was an insignificant ant in the landscape pot.
External forces wantonly distort the vision in which it is located, trying to make it drift with the tide from countless angles, and he is following Wei Liang in this bumpy and crazy world, escaping to the edge of this world.
Around him, the shadows of the trees were twisted and grotesque, the contours of the mountains were blurred, and the sun shower seemed to fall onto the earth with a heatwave, the whole world molded into a state of madness in the midst of steaming heat and humid air.
"Drip, drip…"
Fine raindrops continuously struck Lin Yi's face, and his already distorted vision began to show water vapor, like glass being rained on, with crooked water stains resembling rags torn by terrifying monsters.
Those who have not experienced this sun shower can never imagine the predicament Lin Yi is currently facing, nor can they ever comprehend the unspeakable fear and unease. Being in the daytime, he seemed to be walking on an endless path on a cobblestone road, glimpsing the abyss hidden in the universe, and that abyss was silently staring at him.
He could no longer see Wei Liang clearly, but the sensation in his hand told him that he still had a connection with Wei Liang.
Far behind Lin Yi, a ghostly smiling angel floated over, carrying an hourglass filled with viscous golden sand. However, even though it had seen Lin Yi, it seemed to sense something and did not continue forward.
And in front of it was the boundary of the sun shower—just as a rain zone must have a boundary, in front of it was the edge of that sun shower.
It silently looked into the depths of the sun shower, then slowly floated down to the ground, pinched the hourglass with its index finger and thumb, and slowly placed its palms in a posture of bowing its head and covering its face…
Gradually, it turned into a statue under the sun, and then gradually became transparent, until it could no longer be captured by the visual system of the naked eye…

On the other side, Lin Yi, who was walking in the distorted world, was enveloped in a hazy green mist due to constantly absorbing the sun shower falling from the sky. The surrounding wind became stronger and stronger, but the raindrops still maintained that same frequency and rhythm, giving the feeling of "you blow your wind, I rain my rain."
And this discordant feeling once again began to impact Lin Yi's five senses.
By this time, his five senses' perception of the outside world had been distorted quite a bit. Fortunately, his hand was still on Wei's…
"Not good…!!"
Wei Liang was gone.
"I was clearly holding his hand the whole time, how did he disappear?!"
"Layer…?!"
"The layer has fallen… when did this happen?!"
He couldn't tell, because he had been falling through layers all along, the only difference was the depth!
Lin Yi looked at his arm, feeling goosebumps all over his body.
In his almost morbidly distorted vision, his hand was also full of those miniature spirals like swimming tadpoles, and the boundary between his arm and the surrounding environment had also become blurred…
He now resembled an Impressionist figure by Monet, his whole person about to become an ancient abstract work deconstructed by broken dots.
"Crap! Am I going to be buried here by the layers?!"
Sweat appeared on Lin Yi's forehead, although in reality he could no longer feel what sweat was, it was all his psychological effect.
He could only continue to walk forward, following his instincts, trying to find some numbered lampposts to anchor his position.
But in such a dull environment, it seemed that every tree possessed its own soul, and the low wind seemed to convey some kind of ancient call.
Lin Yi gradually lost his way. He felt that he had deviated from the correct path, but his will had to put a lock on his cognition, repeatedly emphasizing that he was walking on the correct path.
It was just that the surrounding trees gradually became densely packed, the messy tree roots entangled together, as if they were mutually entwined, and the faint squeaking sounds coming from within made one shudder, as if countless sculptures of unknown shapes were shrinking in places that light could not reach, watching his every move.
He felt like he had "accidentally" entered the green belt.
Or rather… the green belt had summoned him.
In the depths of this forest, there also seemed to be a kind of eerie and terrifying whisper accompanying the strong wind, making people shudder…
Lin Yi didn't dare to "stop" his steps, nor did he dare to "look back." He also couldn't use the method of detaching from the layer in the student passage to anchor himself using his knowledge of the campus—are you kidding me! He got lost once when he went to the gymnasium last time, and he didn't get enough correct anchor points at all!
Besides, he hadn't even figured out what this sun shower was all about, so what was he supposed to do!
"Crunch, crunch, crunch…"
He felt dry leaves and soft sand under his feet, as if he had entered a deep forest.
However, his cheeks and other parts exposed to the air could still feel the stuffy and humid feeling of the sun shower. Clearly, it was the same body, but it was like stepping into different layers…
Soon, Lin Yi felt a humid and desolate aura from the depths of the twisted forest. Here, the weak sunlight could no longer penetrate the dense canopy, and even the raindrops seemed to be blocked by the branches and leaves, leaving only a few raindrops falling with the mist…
The normal world that ordinary people are in is usually composed of stable and regular geometric buildings, full of lines that conform to human cognitive habits, but in Lin Yi's case now, not only have all the lines become an anti-human form, but even the colors are irregular, which has caused Lin Yi to no longer be able to remember any details related to this place.
In this layer filled with visual pollution and indirect mental pollution, he couldn't even find any anchors related to reality, and he didn't have the energy to abandon the interference and think seriously.
Thinking about pollution-related matters would be very dangerous, but if he was already in a desperate situation, then there would be no other choice.
Lin Yi then tried to reduce some interference factors that were "relatively not so influential to him," such as wind and rain.
If others heard that he didn't even care about the wind and rain, they would definitely scold him for courting death, but in the position he was in now, the strong wind and the sun shower itself had been shielded a lot by the deep forest. What he needed to do was to find some details from here, so that he could anchor back to the green belt of the campus.
He estimated that his position on the campus layer would not deviate too far from the cobblestone road. Perhaps he was now in the green belt, or perhaps he had already reached deeper into the mountains and forests.
