And what she was wearing was not a teacher's uniform, but the battle suit she wore when she fought against him earlier.
The current starry sky-like liquid battle suit was already very damaged, leaving Class Teacher-040's skin barely protected. She looked as if she had been through a grinder, with wounds all over her body.
Some of the smaller wounds had scabbed over, but some shocking ones hadn't formed scabs and were showing signs of festering. In those wounds, the blood had turned into jelly-like crystals, and some even showed signs of petrification...
Class Teacher-040 had been contaminated.
Lin Yi immediately saw her condition, but unlike the units contaminated by the spirit, Class Teacher-040's body was contaminated. It was as if her body had been impacted by tangible supernatural power, causing severe injuries, leaving her unconscious.
Class Teacher-039 might have been injured before, leading to gradual contamination.
However, Class Teacher-039's injuries were much lighter than Class Teacher-040's, which allowed her the opportunity to become the Art Teacher.
But Class Teacher-040 was almost in a state of slow death.
Fortunately, she encountered Lin Yi.
Even more fortunately, Lin Yi had just learned "lock picking," and the first lock he picked was the one to her office.
Lin Yi gently placed his hand on Class Teacher-040's exposed skin, collecting most of his perception to flow into her body to better understand her injuries.
Just in case, he kept some perception outside as a precaution.
As soon as he perceived the situation inside Class Teacher-040, Lin Yi took a sharp breath in shock.
Inside Class Teacher-040, it was a chaos of tangled threads, with various complex supernatural powers flooding her contamination, each adding different kinds of contamination. If this continued, it wouldn't be long before she turned into something akin to an Alien Angel.
Once he clearly perceived all the injuries and contamination inside Class Teacher-040, Lin Yi constructed her condition in his heart like a humanoid computer.
Luckily, because Lin Yi treated Class Teacher-040 early yesterday morning, he still retained the "body data" of Class Teacher-040 in her "prime state" in his heart.
Thus, Lin Yi used the "body data" from last time as a reference to bring Class Teacher-040's severely injured body closer to that data...
He suddenly felt like a builder, while his peers used design diagrams to repair architecture, he used body data to repair the body.
What he was doing to Class Teacher-040's body surpassed normal "treatment," and was more like a kind of "data rollback."
It was a very difficult process, but Lin Yi felt like he was gradually reaching a state of perfection.
He furrowed his brows, expression solemn, but from time to time a hint of fervor flashed in his eyes, as if he was deeply immersed in this crazy "operation"...
Time passed bit by bit.
Finally, he restored Class Teacher-040's physical state to eighty percent, and the wounds on her body were mostly healed.
At that moment, Class Teacher-040's long, curled eyelashes fluttered slightly...
"Mm..."
A soft moan escaped her throat, and her brow suddenly furrowed, only to slowly relax.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes wide, her entire body instantly bursting with strong murderous intent. At the same time, she sprang up like lightning, maxing out her agility, darting to the corner like a nimble fish, her eyes cautiously focused on Lin Yi.
Her nerves were tightly wound, as if she hadn't escaped the state from the previous night.
Which made sense, as she had fainted beside the bed yesterday, her nerves naturally still locked in that intense battle.
Lin Yi raised his hand in a gesture of surrender: "It's me, Lin Yi."
"Lin Yi...? Impossible!" Class Teacher-040 said hoarsely, "Who are you really?"
"It's really me." Lin Yi replied somewhat helplessly but with understanding for Class Teacher-040, "If it wasn't for me, how would you explain your injuries? I even treated you yesterday, remember?"
With Lin Yi's reminder, Class Teacher-040 slowly withdrew from the state of life-and-death combat from the previous day.
"Huh, my body...?!" Class Teacher-040 felt the nearly healed wounds on her body, completely shocked, "My injuries?! This...? How did you do it?"
Lin Yi waved his hand: "Alright, alright, just believe it... now come over, lie down, I'm not done yet!"
"N-not done...?" Class Teacher-040 subconsciously hugged herself tightly, "You..."
"I meant helping you heal." Lin Yi didn't bother explaining further, "Come over and lie down."
"Alright." Class Teacher-040 pursed her lips, but without lingering, she obediently walked to the window and lay down.
"I feel like I'm already healed." Class Teacher-040 suddenly said.
Indeed, that was how she felt.
Although she didn't understand how Lin Yi achieved it.
Lin Yi frowned slightly: "I say it's not healed, so it's not healed. I understand your body better than you do now... If you insist, I can abandon the treatment, but you'll have to bear any consequences yourself."
It wasn't just because of their acquaintance that Lin Yi insisted on saving her; it was because he believed in doing things thoroughly. Leaving a task incomplete felt like leaving an easily solvable problem half-done.
Self-fulfillment would feel very low.
Feeling unfulfilled would make him unhappy.
And he simply didn't want to be unhappy.
Class Teacher-040 didn't know Lin Yi's thoughts, so she just lay there, allowing him to operate.
"Do you need to remove the battle suit?" she suddenly asked.
"Remove the battle suit?" Lin Yi's heart fluttered slightly, removing the battle suit... Wouldn't that... A vivid fantasy briefly flashed in his mind, but he suppressed it.
"No need... This will do."
Class Teacher-040 showed no expression, but for some reason, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Yi then continued to place his hand on Class Teacher-040's wounds, continuing the treatment.
In addition to some injuries on Class Teacher-040's body, there remained some contamination components he didn't understand.
The focus was on clearing these contamination components, but only after the body was repaired could he proceed to the next step.
"With injuries like yours, anyone else would be dead." Lin Yi said while treating her, "Surviving is truly incredible... Your determination is really strong."
Class Teacher-040's lips curled into a proud smile: "You may underestimate my combat power, but do not underestimate our willpower... sigh, gentle."
"Very gentle, this is nerve pain." Lin Yi added, "I'm absorbing your contamination, and your pain is just 'perception' pain, not injury pain."
"Your body has been restored to yesterday's peak state by me, but the internal contamination has not been completely removed..."
Listening to Lin Yi's words, Class Teacher-040 couldn't help but look at his young face. In a daze, she felt that Lin Yi was like a death surgeon in a white coat, speaking coldly to her on the operating table.
Seeing her look over, Lin Yi's cold gaze met hers.
She hesitated, then slightly turned her head: "I feel like you are the most outrageous one. Yesterday's kind of injury you could treat, but this kind of injury, how did you heal it again?"
"Uh... confidential." Lin Yi said; he didn't know how to explain it. Should he say that I repaired your body like a wall?
Saying it like that would be too disrespectful.
"And... why can you absorb contamination?" Class Teacher-040 asked. "As our strategic alliance, wouldn't you at least let me hear a peep about it?"
"I did let out a peep... you just didn't hear it." Lin Yi muttered, seeing Class Teacher-040 about to lose her temper, he quickly said, "Absorbing contamination, I think, should be part of the 'Ashen Apostle' power."
