Then, it was a cloudy day, and as he returned to the Teaching Building, he had encountered clouds drifting across the sky. Little Genius with his "damaged Human Sculpture" must have encountered this situation as well. Moreover, combined with the massive Contamination gathered near the Green Forest Belt, it absorbed a significant amount of white powder particles, gradually restoring its body. Then it took the path towards the nonexistent sea, and in the afternoon, it happened to come across him who had fallen through the layers!

The loop closed!

Perfectly closed!

"Knowing this now doesn't hold much significance," Tian Bufan slightly shook his head. Having deciphered the Transformation Pathways between Nocturnal species and Non-human Units, they could effectively avoid many issues. Even if someone like Little Genius turned into a Human Sculpture and returned, they would not be afraid.

"Speaking of which, I didn't expect the Sports Student to talk so much with you?" Lin Yi's expression was somewhat strange, carrying an ambiguous significance, "You couldn't possibly have figured it out yourself and then pinned it on a fabricated Sports Student, could you?"

Tian Bufan smiled, "It's a bit of both. They're tight-lipped when it comes to principled issues, but this kind of thing can still be discussed."

Lin Yi didn't waste more time on this issue, figuring if he asked, then it was said by the Sports Student; if he asked further, then it would be Tian Bufan slowly "decompressing" more information over Time with his deepening understanding.

"By the way, I found that Nocturnal species exist not only in elevator shafts but also in places inside the Teaching Building that aren't directly hit by sunlight, including the bathrooms... I encountered Nocturnal species disguised as Liangzi and Li Huiyuan in the bathroom, and they seemed smarter than ordinary Nocturnal species."

"That's normal. Nocturnal species sneak in whenever they find a gap. Those that couldn't squeeze into the elevator would escape into the corners of the building," Tian Bufan spoke slowly, "and those in the bathrooms, it is very possible that they transformed from 'Non-human Classmates' who hadn't died yet after their Contamination deepened."

As they discussed Transformation Pathways, Lin Yi inevitably thought about the Human Sculptures disguised as Nie Yun and Ge Qing, trying to Attack them.

But what impressed him most about that incident wasn't the Attack itself but their bizarre posture against the wall.

"Not only the Non-human forms of Ge Qing and Nie Yun, but the Non-human form of Zhou Yuting I saw later also had a wall-facing posture, as if it was licking the paint number with its tongue," Lin Yi recalled the details with effort, "and I'm not sure if it's my illusion, but I always feel that the streetlights today seem dimmer than usual, and even the paint numbers have faded a lot."

"Not sure if it has been affected by the Mist or... licked off by the Non-human Classmates."

Tian Bufan suggested, "Since you have a hypothesis, why not delve into it and see."

"If the dimming of streetlights is caused by the Mist, then the same issue should have arisen on our first day at school and yesterday. However, clearly, though abnormal weather began to intensify, the range of the streetlights' illumination was indeed compressed, yet the light suffered no effects."

"So, the dimming of streetlights is very likely indeed related to the Non-human Classmates."

"Considering the 'emergency response plan' given by the homeroom teacher, I highly suspect this might be a full-scale invasion of the campus instigated by the Non-human Units under the guidance of some strong source of Contamination," Tian Bufan speculated.

"Perhaps... driven by that Conceptual-level Sculpture!"

"And Old Lin, it seems you've forgotten a very crucial thing," Tian Bufan squinted his eyes, lowered his voice, and said solemnly, "From the situation on the first night, the presence of the Conceptual-level Sculpture was not just outside the classrooms of my C Block and your B Block, Old Lin, what do you think that implies?"

On hearing this, Lin Yi's dark pupils suddenly contracted, "Are you suggesting... those Conceptual-level Sculptures are not the only entities?"

As he spoke these words, Lin Yi felt a shiver down his spine, as if a cold breeze was swirling around his body.
