Rules-related weird stories: 4016

This isn't an exaggeration; it's literally "not even a hair left."

Before Lin Yi was a pure white "blank" world.

Like Neo entering the room of the Oracle in The Matrix, there was nothing in his vision; because there was nothing, it was a blank slate.

Lin Yi felt his Dao heart was about to crumble a little. He was just a few steps away from reaching Dorm 1414, but in the end, he had to experience this.

Is this a group buying scheme?

Withdraw 100, but short one cent, so you have to find someone to cut it down?

After cutting nine cents, cut the gold ingot; after cutting the gold ingot, cut the diamonds; after cutting the diamonds, they tell you to pull in more people to continue cutting…

"Isn't it just a dormitory building, what the hell… is this how you play?!"

Lin Yi's inner thoughts were very rich, but no matter how rich they were, he couldn't pull himself back on track by complaining.

Before him was still a void of blankness.

He slowly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Glug…"

The sound was clearly audible, and the whole world seemed to fall into silence.

He didn't even dare to look back, afraid that if he turned around, he would see the world behind him was also a void…

If that were the case, he would really be in trouble.

"Wait… that's not right!"

A flash of inspiration struck his mind.

"Behind?!"

He took a deep breath, slowly raised his right foot, and tentatively took a step back.

His toe touched the ground…

His expression lit up with joy.

It seems the back isn't blank!

Slowly, his heel also landed.

But he suddenly realized something, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead—his body remained in the position of taking a step back and stepping on something, and solidified in place as if petrified.

He did step on something, but it wasn't the floor that should be in the corridor.

It was a hard, slippery, and uneven stone slab with some pits and bumps on the surface.

A thought popped into his subconscious, and this thought emerged from his shoulder like a little devil, desperately telling him:

[This isn't the dormitory building, this isn't the dormitory building… ]

But his reason emerged from the other shoulder like a little angel, rubbing the little devil on the ground, spitting out Lin Yi's voice:

"This is the dormitory building… This is the dormitory building…"

Cold sweat slowly flowed down the bridge of Lin Yi's nose.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but a slight loosening appeared in the void of blankness.

Lin Yi originally thought that it was under the powerful willpower of his self-restraint that the surrounding world seemed to have reached some kind of resonance with his will…

But he quickly realized that this was just his pale fantasy.

There was no resonance at all, only a… predetermined trajectory.

This slight tremor became more and more intense, and soon this void of blankness began to change.

His senses began to function.

First, it was his hearing.

He heard a sharp wind like a blade in his ear, the kind of sound that erupts from the friction between a high-speed moving object and the air…

"Whoosh—Chichichi—"

Immediately afterward, a powerful gust of wind rushed towards him, mixed with some indescribable smell, and slammed into his mouth and nose!

This smell reminded him of a picture of putting silt into a pot as a dish and constantly stir-frying it;

It was also like putting stinky fish and rotten shrimp in a jar and pickling them for more than half a month, and then the first mouthful of dusty, turbid air that spewed out when the mud seal was opened…

This smell had surpassed the scope of what his sense of smell could perceive, and also surpassed the range that his brain could react to, and in the end, only a pale and weak message was transmitted into his mind.

This message told him that it was colorless, odorless, indescribable, imperceptible, and made people feel creepy…

Secondly, it was his vision.

He saw a slight fluctuation finally appear in the void of blankness, and the blank and void area seemed to be a strong and dazzling white light.

He knew that the unknown void was definitely not such a white light at first.

But it was now.

The white light eroded his vision, accompanied by the whistling wind in his ears, making him feel as if he was in some dark and humid wind tunnel!

Coming with this was a powerful sense of being pushed back.

This feeling, whether it was a sense of being pushed back or not.

Because the white light suddenly began to rapidly enlarge in his vision, as if it was rushing towards him, or as if he was being pushed towards it.

In short, he could feel that he was breaking through some kind of shackles.

A pure, passive breakthrough.

"Whoosh—Boom—"

The white light exploded, and then gradually dimmed.

This change in vision gave him a strong sense of déjà vu.

He felt like he was rushing out of a tunnel, like sitting on a roller coaster in "Roller Coaster Murder Case" and rushing out of a dark cave, seeing the brilliant white light.

Because of the existence of light parallax, he initially saw a white light, and then, with the improvement of adaptability, he gradually became able to see the environment in front of him clearly.

It seemed to be… a sky.

A pitch-black sky.

Thick clouds covered the high sky like a cotton coat, and above the sea of clouds, there was a clear and blurred outline of the sun.

It was said to be blurred because this sun was an extremely pure black sun, as if it was integrated with the pitch-black sky.

It was said to be clear because there was a circle of golden outline around it, and it was impossible not to see it.

It was as if the gods were painting with the world as their canvas, drawing a circle on the black sky with vermilion gold sealing wax.

And this circle was this black sun.

Lin Yi felt it was a bit familiar. This black sun actually gave him a sense of déjà vu…

"Where have I seen it before?"

Before he could react, he heard the sound of waves hitting the reef in his ears again.

This sound came from behind him, and entered his ears along with the wind…

"Waves?"

He was slightly stunned, and the corner of his eye gradually captured an absurd and ridiculous scene.

He saw an ocean.

A…

God damn vertically standing ocean.

"?!!!!!!!"

A feeling of cognition being rubbed frantically on the ground eroded his brain, so that his brain was blank at this moment.

He turned his body numbly, facing the ocean directly.

At this moment, a highly subversive abstract picture appeared in front of him.

His left was the ocean, and his right was the sky.

At the dividing line between the ocean and the sky, like a surging wavy line, it was placed in front of him.

"…"

"…"

He stared blankly at this picture, his whole body seemed petrified.

He looked to the right.

The pitch-black golden-rimmed sun hung high in the pitch-black sky.

He looked to his left again.

The pitch-black sea water was hitting the pitch-black reef.

He looked at his feet.

That scarred, pitch-black, riddled stone wall.

Moss grew on the stone wall.

His subconscious had already recognized a problem, but he paralyzed himself with numb will, and he was still repeating that sentence in his heart—

The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

[I'm in the dormitory building.]

[I'm fucking… in the dormitory building!!!]

But clearly, he wasn't. He was in an unknown world.

And he wasn't normal.

Not just ordinary abnormal, but outrageously abnormal.

That dividing line was indeed the dividing line between the ocean and the sky.

The ocean didn't actually stand upright.

He was the one who turned sideways.

He was still standing on a steep cliff perpendicular to the horizon—in a way that defied gravity, goddamn like Spider-Man.

He remembered.

This place… he had really been here before.

Just when he was in the gymnasium, looking at the ancient green lamp in the swimming pool area, he accidentally had a vision.

In that vision, he stood on the edge of a cliff, in front of a world shrouded in mist, with a sea extending into the thick fog.

At that time, there was also a security guard holding an ancient green lamp by the cliff.

And now… he had such a vision again.

But the position had changed subtly, he went from being on the cliff to being 'on' the cliff.

Finally, his reason could no longer overcome his senses, and he began to feel the gravity on his body.

He… was about to fall off the cliff!!!

When what he believed was no longer that he was in the dormitory building, illusion began to replace reality, truth and falsehood were no longer important, and visions and reality were no longer important.

Everything began to distort, leaving only the most primitive 'belief' anchoring his position!

But now, the anchor also had a problem.

His anchor was fixed on the cliff!

When gravity began to envelop him, dragging him down the cliff, the sense of death's crisis entangled him like countless tentacles, wanting to put him to death in one breath.

"What to do?! What to do?!!"

In the face of the aura of death, his brain ran wildly again.

He went through the 《Dormitory Building Notice (Rules)》 over and over again in his mind, and found that none of them applied to the current situation.

At the critical moment, he thought of the head teacher.

[An iron will is the key to resisting pollution.]

"An iron… will."

Lin Yi was like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw, a flash of light suddenly bursting out in his eyes.

"That's right! Will!!"

"I was just in the dormitory building!"

"Dormitory building, dormitory building, dormitory building…"

He desperately conceived in his mind the scene before 'coming' here!

He was in the dormitory building.

He had just walked past dormitory 1412 with Wei Liang, and was about to walk to dormitory 1413 and dormitory 1414!

He kept strengthening this cognition in his mind, and he kept imagining himself in the dormitory building corridor.

"I'm in the corridor! I'm in the corridor! I'm in the corridor…"

Gradually, the sense of gravity that had originally enveloped him really became diluted a bit because of this.

"It works! This method works!!!"

He was overjoyed, almost shouting out.

Since a vision would appear after the will loosened, and the vision would cause problems with his anchor, why couldn't he do the opposite and re-anchor in the original area?

But… anchoring requires a frame of reference.

So he needed to find a reference object again, find an anchor point that could be distinguished from this strange place!

He kept condensing his willpower—this was no longer a matter of attention, this was a contest of will!

Finally, something flashed before his eyes!

He captured this picture, it seemed to be… a wall!

A virtual wall!

White walls, brownish-yellow coating, with relief-like patterns on the walls, that was…

That was the pattern in the dormitory building corridor!

That was the wall of the dormitory building!

A virtual wall!

A virtual dormitory building!

Like a hallucination!

"Dormitory building! Dormitory building!!"

Lin Yi roared in his heart, but along with the phantom of the dormitory building wall that flashed by, the feeling of being blessed by gravity suddenly appeared again, slowly enveloping him!

The loosening of his perception of the current level of the world awakened the "anchor" based on that level!

The gradually increasing gravity, the sobbing cold sea breeze, accompanied by the thin mist, slowly enveloped him, these things that could not be distinguished as false or real, were constantly strengthening his cognition, trying to squeeze out the influence of the dormitory building in his mind!

At this moment, the dormitory building was more like a vision, the virtual wall became more virtual, and the patterns in the corridor that he had not remembered clearly began to become more blurred!

Lin Yi gritted his teeth, but his will eventually began to fall into a disadvantage.

Disaster followed, and just when his will was suppressed, another kind of shouting that did not belong to this world was suddenly mixed in the sea breeze.

This was the second time he had heard the painful roar in the short night, but this time the sound was blessed by this world, and it became even more terrifying than the last time.

That distant era seemed to return to time from the depths of the sea shrouded in thick fog. In a trance, it seemed that a group of ancient and strange priests were waving their staffs and dancing around the bonfire, chanting some kind of dance exuding a Cthulhu flavor, chanting prayers full of evil flavor and chilling that humans could not accurately utter:

"I AvgruNnen av tKe og mrke jaGer forTapte Sjeler fanTome"

No will can resist such a sound, even an iron will appears as thin as a cicada's wing in front of it!

This incomprehensible sound pierced into Lin Yi's brain like a drill, and began to tear his spirit.

"Dormitory building… dormitory building… dormitory building…"

Only these three words remained in Lin Yi's mind.

But even these last three words became extremely unfamiliar under the impact of this sound…

Just as he was about to be enveloped by darkness, a clear yellow light fell from the cliff.

Like a person drowning in the shallow sea, looking up, he saw the sunlight penetrating from the surface of the sea.

A trace, a wisp, warm as if reflecting the blue sky.

The source of the brilliance seemed to be a lamp, an… ancient green lamp.

That iron tower-like figure stood on the cliff, holding a green lamp and looking at the ocean, just like a final guardian.

The light of the ancient green lamp enveloped Lin Yi, so the darkness receded, and so the strange sound and sea breeze all disappeared.

Lin Yi looked at him in a daze, his mouth slightly open but he couldn't say anything.

He lowered his head and looked at Lin Yi, a pair of crimson golden eyes more like the sun than the dark sun.
