Shadow Egg

4. The Game of Order and Chaos: Hospitalization

Lin Che was dragged by chains and glided on the hard ground. Although Erin looked slender, the force from the chain was like a runaway crane, which made him unable to resist at all.

"Let go of me! I'm not an entrant. I fell into the reservoir..."

"The reservoir is just a projection point." Erin's voice came from the front, without waves. "Here, the logic of the real world is not applicable. You have awakened the 'shadow embers', which is an extremely dangerous and unstable sequence in the college's evaluation. According to the Basic Law of the Sancture, I have the right to Execue you directly.

Lin Che felt that the chain wrapped around his body was tightening. The burning pain made him realize that the chain seemed to have some sacred attribute, which just restrained the stupid darkness in his body.

They walked through the huge oak gate.

Behind the gate is an endless corridor. Portraits of powerful killers of all generations were hanging on the walls on both sides, and their eyes looked down coldly at the tied teenager. At the other end of the corridor, Lin Che saw a completely different scene--

After the gloomy church structure, there is a garden villa area full of life. White walls, red tiles, and even exquisite fountains. This strong sense of misplacement made him almost crazy.

"Irene, you are too slow."

A cold voice sounded in front of us.

At the corner of the corridor, a girl wearing single tactical glasses and short hair is sitting on a suspended control chair. The electronic pen in her hand quickly crossed the virtual screen in the air.

"Su Lian, test this sample." Erin threw Lin Che in front of the girl.

Su Lian pushed her glasses, and a blue scanning beam of light swept past Lin Che.

"Lin Che, male, 17 years old, from the old world. Emotional threshold: extremely low. Oppression index: extremely high." Su Lian read the data on the screen and frowned slightly, "His shadow fusion has reached a critical point. Irene, his shadow personality has begun to become conscious now. If he learns to fly, he will become a moving black hole in an instant.

Su Lian looked at Lin Che as if she was looking at a broken precision instrument.

"Suggestion: Scrap it immediately. The cost of repair is higher than the cost of destruction.

Lin Che lay on the cold ground and listened to them discussing his life and death. His inner anger finally broke through the critical point. He thought that time travel was salvation, but he found that it was just jumping from one hell to another.

"Kill me?" Lin Che suddenly laughed, and his voice was extremely harsh because of the dryness. "In that world, I can't die even if I want to. Come here, and you also want to control my life?"

With his roar, the shadow under his feet suddenly expanded, cracking the marble floor into spider web-like lines. The black fog began to spread up along the chain.

"Warning: Energy Runaway." Su Lian calmly operated the screen, "Irene, suppress him."

A trace of impatance flashed in Erin's eyes, but the movement of her hand did not hesitate. She was about to urge the inscription on the chain when a crisp and untimely sound of flip-flops hitting the ground came from the depths of the corridor.

"Tsk tsk, such a good blank, you actually want to scrap it? Su Lian, your reason is the same as Hegel's logic, and it is always easy to fall into stiffness.

A decadent voice sounded.

The fog dissipated, and a man in a wrinkled shirt and a beard appeared in front of the crowd. He staggered over with a bottle of cheap liquor in his hand, but the moment he stepped into the shadow range, he gently stepped on the runaway shadow with one toe.

A miracle happened.

The originally violent shadow, under the step of the flip-flop, unexpectedly let out a low cry of fear and instantly retracted to the soles of Lin Che's feet.

The man lowered his head, looked at Lin Che, who was covered in cold sweat, and grinned.

"Boy, do you want to fly? Do you want to drag those who step on you into the shadows?"

The man stretched out a hand covered with calluses:

"My name is Ska, and I will be your future hell mentor. Welcome to the real college.

Chapter 2: The Stripping Ceremony of the Abyss Sanctuary

1. Class c***k: Arrogance in the Garden

The moment Ska stepped on the flip-flop, the air in the corridor seemed to freeze. The almost brutal pressure not only suppressed the shadow of Lin Che's runaway, but even the golden chain in Irene's hand made a slight buzzing, as if it was afraid of some kind of breath emitted by the man.

"Mr. Ska, you have violated Article 14 of the College Safety Regulations again." Su Lian pushed the monocles, and her tone was as stable as ever, but there was a trace of helplessness in her eyes. "It is strictly f*******n to bring the 'original source of infection' into the teaching area without disinfection and registration."

"Rules are reserved for those who have no ability, Su Lian." Ska poured a sip of wine and wiped his beard carelessly. His turbid but sharp eyes stared at Lin Che. "There is a 'fierceness' hidden in the shadow of this boy's body that I haven't seen for a long time. It's a shape that has been stepped on in the mud for too long, and even the soul has been sharpened.

He suddenly pulled Lin Che's collar and lifted him up like a chicken.

"Let's go, kid. Take you to see your 'cemetery'.

Just as they turned to the end of the corridor, a crisp sound of horses' hooves - or a kind of rhythm of metal hitting the marble floor - came from the arch of the garden villa area.

"Tutor Ska, I have to remind you that your habit of collecting 'garbage' is lowering the whole St. Erinius."

Lin Che reluctantly turned his head and looked through the scattered fog.

A teenager in a pure white military uniform is standing by the fountain. His golden curly hair shimmered with almost dazzling brilliance under the artificial light source, and an extremely gorgeous fine sword was hanging around his waist. He looked at Lin Che in his eyes, not like he was looking at a person, but as if he was looking at a pile of mud stained with gorgeous carpets.

"That's Leonardo von Saxony." Irene reminded in a low voice in Lin Che's ear, with a hint of complexity in her tone, "This is the strongest 'Embers of Light'. Stay away from him. His light is very poisonous to you now.

Leonardo sneered contemptuously, and his slender fingers brushed the golden family emblem at the neckline: "The shadow can only wriggle in the corner where the light can't shine. Tutor Ska, if you plan to stuff this civilian into my team, I will consider using the family's veto.

"Let's talk about your rights when you can survive three moves from me, young master of the Saxon family." Ska waved his hand without looking back and directly dragged Lin Che into the deepest shadow of the church.

2. Under the sanctuary: the sound of gears and runes

If the church on the ground is a sacred work of art, then the "sanctuary" deep underground is a cold butcher.

As the heavy mechanical elevator slowly descended, the light disappeared completely. Lin Che felt that the air became sticky and heavy, and the feeling of being bullied came again, but this time it was more physically oppressive.

"Boom--"

When the light came on, Lin Che was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he was speechless.

This is a huge circular underground space with a diameter of more than 100 meters. The surrounding walls are not rocks, but countless precisely fitting and slowly rotating bronze gears. The surface of these gears is engraved with dense and sparkling blue runes.

In the center of the circle, there is a black stone altar suspended in the air, and below it is a bottomless void.

"This is the 'Yubin Decompression Module'." Ska threw Lincher on the altar, acting rudely as if he was dealing with a bag of garbage. "Your shadow is now a hungry mad dog. It wants to swallow you and use your negative emotions as fuel to completely appear in the real world. And what I want to do is to teach you how to bite off its neck in reverse.

Lin Che was lying on the cold black stone, and he could feel that the shadow under his feet was beating wildly. With the flickering of these runes, his shadow unexpectedly began to grow upwards from the plane, turning into countless black tentacles, climbing up his ankles and calves inch by inch, and even touching his neck.

It was an extreme cold, like a thousand ice needles piercing into the pores at the same time.

"Tutor... He is talking to me..." Lin Che's teeth trembled and his voice was hoarse.

"Give up..." A voice exactly like him echoed in my mind, "Give me your body... Those who bully you, I can peel off their skin piece by piece... You can fly... Fly away from this dirty world..."
