Rules-related weird stories: 4016

“So many!”

“Too much! Too much!!”

The pseudo-human PE students roared incoherently, crawling towards the skeleton of the Wrathful Angel like addicts. In their eyes, the skeleton of the Wrathful Angel seemed like the most delicious food in the world.

This was indeed a feast, not only for the PE students but also for the pseudo-human PE students.

However, as these pseudo-human PE students approached the skeleton of the Wrathful Angel, their brows gradually relaxed, and their eyes became hollow and lifeless. They seemed to have lost all expression, as if all emotions had been extracted.

Soon, their bodies began to exude a mottled aura like steam, just as the Wrathful Angel's body had been stripped into fragments. Yet, they still felt nothing and continued to devour the gray mist frantically, like a person whose stomach was already bursting but still eating tirelessly.

All the gray mist they devoured caused their bodies to petrify at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, their bodies began to shatter and peel away like the Wrathful Angel's had before, until they all turned into sculptures consisting only of skeletons before even reaching the Wrathful Angel's skeleton.

Just as the precept said, "Those who chase the light through the mist will eventually become phantoms."

However, the strange thing was that the hearts below their chests still maintained a strange rhythm and were slowly beating.

“Thump, thump, thump…”

Dozens of skeletons were like lanterns, with the hearts inside like larvae protected in cocoons. They beat slowly, beat slowly…

The PE teachers silently observed the changes below, looking at the beating hearts with indifferent expressions, seemingly waiting for something.

…

All the PE students on the stands, including Lin Yi, had also been observing this situation, because the "feast" they were enjoying did not require them to close their eyes and comprehend anything like cultivators. They only needed to keep their minds and bodies at peace and absorb the sky-blue aura.

Therefore, they could all observe their surroundings, just trying to avoid being affected by the external environment.

As for someone like Lin Yi, who could look around everywhere and still maintain efficient "eating," he was completely in a different category.

Lin Yi also discovered that the fate of those pseudo-human PE students was the same as that of the Wrathful Angel—only a skeleton remained, and the flesh on their bodies had all turned into ashes-like fragments and fallen off, then annihilated into those mottled auras of various colors.

However, unlike the Wrathful Angel, the products after their annihilation were only blue and green auras.

Lin Yi's heart suddenly tightened. Setting aside the role of the pseudo-human PE students in the whole event, their ending seemed like a tool—a converter that transformed the "inedible" gray mist into "edible" blue and green auras!

Each pseudo-human PE student consumed could convert a certain amount of gray mist, no, purify a certain amount of colored aura, and these auras were fed back into the giant egg!

The Savage Beasts feed on my race, why can't my race feed on the Savage Beasts? All things in the world, with measured control, can be food! Such words suddenly appeared in Lin Yi's mind.

This is the "feast!"

Only the one who starts the feast is the one who enjoys the feast!

The others are just fattened food!

A chill ran through his heart, and he suddenly understood more deeply why the boss and the others didn't get rid of the pseudo-human PE students, because these pseudo-human PE students were converted after the PE students were killed, and they only occupied a "skin" of the Night Walker.

So, these things are placed in the gymnasium, just like chickens and ducks raised in their own vegetable garden. In fact, it is a mixed breeding circle. When the feast begins, the chickens, ducks, fish, and meat will be slaughtered together for dinner.

To achieve this, in addition to the PE students' own prevention, it is only necessary to prevent these things raised in their own circle from harming the experience students, so there are relevant rules in the "Gymnasium Rules" for the experience students.

And the content of these rules is indeed to "protect the experience students from the harm of the pseudo-human PE students."

Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief and began to rejoice that he was at least on the side of the "meal-doers" to come to the first floor of the stands.

“But then again, does Liangzi know everything again, so he simply doesn't eat this meal?”

Wei Liang seems to always be walking on the path of not getting wet, even at this time, there is a kind of tenacity that is obviously about to fall into the mud but still relies on a bamboo pole to stand firmly on the mud.

It's really flowing water of accidents, iron-clad Wei Liang.

Just then, Lin Yi suddenly noticed some strange noises again. The sound was like dozens or hundreds of drumbeats sounding at the same time, "thump, thump, thump…" knocking on his heart, as if it was beaten out with a big drum.

His gaze quickly locked onto the skeleton lanterns on the playground that locked the hearts of the pseudo-human PE students. The beating of the drum was completely consistent with the frequency of the heartbeats, and it seemed that was the source of the sound, but he quickly felt that it was not…

“The source of the sound… is not those hearts, but more like…”

Lin Yi looked at the ground under his feet.

“…more like it's coming from under my feet.”

Time had passed “long” enough that he almost forgot that before the giant egg appeared abnormal, there was also a slight swaying feeling like a ship at sea…

“It's the frequency of the giant egg swaying with the waves…”

But where did this “wave” come from?

He uncontrollably left his seat and slowly walked to the railing of the first floor of the stands, gently resting his chest on the railing and leaning out to look at the junction of the water and the side wall of the stands.

Moss had spread to that side, and the water gently pushed against the wall, like waves pushing onto black rocks.

“Splash, splash, splash…”

He seemed to hear the sound of waves in his ears, and his heart seemed to beat with the sound of drums, "thump, thump, thump…" The sound of the drums echoed the sound of the waves, like a final movement of a symphony.

“The source of the sound… really comes from under the water! It's transmitted to those hearts through the water!”

Just then, a call mixed in with these sounds and reached his ears—

[Lin Yi…]

Lin Yi: “?!”

Under the waves, ghostly shadows wandered.

Suddenly, something broke through the surface of the water, grabbed his collar, and yanked him towards the water!

“What?!”

Lin Yi was shocked. The moment the eerie shadow appeared, his "Advanced Perception" was completely unaware!

He subconsciously reached out, trying to press down on the ground in the water to alleviate the trend of his fall.

This floor of the stands was not high, and falling down could alleviate the crisis by borrowing some force.

However, just as his hand broke through the surface of the water, a look of disbelief burst into his eyes—

“The ground?! ”

There was no ground beneath the surface!

"Crap!"

Before he could react, his whole body crashed into the water because he couldn't reach the ground, falling beneath the surface!

“Glug… glug… glug…”

Beneath the surface was a dark green scene, as if he had fallen into some particularly murky sewage.

Bubbles kept overflowing from his mouth and nose. He looked around in a panic, following his senses towards the surface.

The surface was right above his head, and it seemed like he could float up with just a few strokes. However, at this moment, he discovered that the bubbles were not floating towards the surface, but were “sinking” downwards…

According to the laws of physics, the place where bubbles rise should be the surface, but Lin Yi was absolutely certain that the surface was above his head.

And the most important thing was that he could clearly sense that he was sinking down with the bubbles!

That definitely wasn't going to be a good place!

So he tried his best to paddle through the water and swim upwards, but at this moment, the water around his body suddenly became turbulent. He was like being caught in a whirlpool, his body began to lose balance and center of gravity, and he was swept around by the water.

“Glug… glug… glug…”

He gritted his teeth, but some bubbles began to uncontrollably emerge from his mouth and nose. He heard the increasingly clear call in his ear, [Lin Yi, Lin Yi…], calling non-stop, like waves, constantly pushing through his brain.

Lin Yi felt that his body was being restrained, and he was sinking deeper and deeper, and the feeling of powerlessness became more and more profound.

He was like a diver whose equipment had broken down and was gradually sinking into the deep sea, watching the light and shadows around him become darker and darker as the water flowed. All kinds of darkness overlapped like gauze, pressing down on him like thousands of mountains.

Above the water, the light and shadows were slanting, but no light could be seen penetrating the water. This green water was like a deserted deep pool, a vast and quiet water area, or even a deep sea shrouded in mist that ships could not reach…

“Clang clang clang… clang clang clang…”

From the dark abyss below, the sound of iron chains rubbing against each other seemed to be heard…

“Glug… glug… glug…”

Below Lin Yi, there seemed to be a more turbulent undercurrent, like some prehistoric, ignorant behemoth sliding its body in the water…

But there was nothing below him. That was something more terrifying than the abyss—a void.

The void was like a huge eye under the deep sea, a huge mouth, with some fluorescent green spots only at the edge of the field of vision. This vague sense of boundary made the originally void space even more oppressive, not to swallow people, but to crush them.

“Glug, glug…”

Lin Yi struggled desperately, but there was nothing to hold on to.

At this moment, he felt the undercurrent beneath him become more and more turbulent, and there was a strong tearing sensation around him. This tearing sensation merged with the undercurrent, as if a group of wild horses had broken free and galloped in different directions, pulling his torso hard in these directions…

The intense pain seemed to tear his spirit apart. In that trance, he seemed to see some scattered pale golden light spots in the void…

His ears were gradually filled with the sound of the "glug glug" undercurrent and the sliding of the "clang clang clang" iron chains. The mysterious creature under the void seemed to be probing its body out of the void, slowly swimming towards him.

[Lin Yi… Lin Yi… ]

The mysterious creature was actually calling Lin Yi's name, as if it had known Lin Yi before, or… was it all just Lin Yi's auditory hallucinations, visual hallucinations, and illusions? He had never heard this kind of call, but instinctively recognized the sound as a sound he could understand, and then used an anchor point to anchor it into a sound that could awaken him from this layer?

But soon his thoughts were rejected, because after the voice repeatedly called his name, it finally welcomed its master…

“Glug glug glug…”

The water surged, and pale golden light spots continued to gather. A huge and blurred shadow slowly emerged from under the void…

It was a mountain-like head. Under the golden light spots, the craggy and jagged surface like rocks could be vaguely seen. It was difficult to determine whether it was keratin or some kind of skin just by observation. In the center of the shadow, the vortex formed by the gathering of golden light spots was like a huge power furnace, but the faintly flickering and jumping luster made people more likely to associate it with eyes.

[Lin Yi… ]

[It's useless… it's all in vain… ]

“Whirr…”

The sound of the iron chain flowing was clearly audible in the dark flowing water.

The shadow seemed to open its mouth, and huge bubbles "glug glug… glug glug…" emerged from its mouth, breaking into countless small bubbles in the water and then sinking to the bottom of the sea.

The surrounding light became darker and darker, and the temperature became colder and colder. Lin Yi felt as if he had fallen into a hole in the Antarctic glacier. Light and shadow were twisting and leaving him, leaving only the unknown behemoth under the glacier, indifferently watching him.

[Greed… never ends… ]

[Everything… will eventually be annihilated… ]

[Lin Yi… ]

[Lin Yi… come here… ]

[Come here… ]

Under the void, the shadow floated with its boundless body.

Can't see clearly.

Can't see clearly at all.

The boundary of that blurry figure was like the stone wall extending from the Blue Hole to the seabed and the continental shelf, floating with a hazy gray light mist, and on that stone wall, it seemed that some thick iron chains could be seen. Those iron chains seemed to lock it here, but the iron chains kept extending to the unknown depths of the void…

When it moved, the iron chains clanged and the undercurrent surged endlessly.

[Lin Yi… ]

[Take me away… ]

[Take me away… ]

Lin Yi gritted his teeth, thinking, what "come here", it's clearly you who are approaching me!

Wait… wait a little longer!

He suddenly realized that those bubbles… those bubbles that he thought were coming out of his body, didn't seem to be coming out of him!

Because he closed his mouth, but bubbles were still coming out of his body!
