Mao Feiyang said, speechless, "Didn't you see through the Teaching Building's underlying logic? Didn't you look for the Proto-Type Ashes Apostles while you were at it?"
"Uh-" Lin Yi paused. He had been so absorbed in his research that he had actually forgotten everything else. Even the matter of the Stairwell had only occurred to him afterward.
He had been wholly focused on studying the structure of the entire Teaching Building and even its connection to the Library. How could he have spared any attention for anything else, let alone the Proto-Type Ashes Apostles?
"Then-should I look now?" Lin Yi asked, a little embarrassed.
Mao Feiyang said, "Since we're already here, let's head above the fifth floor first. We don't want the other Experience Students seeing us and having their cognition collapse."
"True." Lin Yi nodded. "Let's go, then."
"Go, go, go," Mao Feiyang urged, thinking that he might even get another bite to eat.
The three headed up, soon reaching the fourth floor of Building B. Although the fourth-floor hallway ended before them, Lin Yi easily saw through the layer's interference. He stepped forward, smoothly crossing the layer and shifting onto the steps leading to the Teaching Building's fifth floor.
The moment he entered this Staircase, Lin Yi sensed a faint fluctuation within the layers.
It was the aura of ashes-and also the aura of the Proto-Type Ashes Apostles.
Wei Shan's nostrils flared, as though he were sniffing something.
Soon, a sinister grin spread across his face. "Hah-I think I've caught a scent."
"The Proto-Type Ashes Apostles?" Mao Feiyang said helplessly. "One of you has better perception than me, and the other has better intuition-just tell me whatever you find and save me the trouble of sensing it myself."
"It is indeed the aura of the Proto-Type Ashes Apostles,"
