"They-they-"
Wei Shan's gaze flickered, and fragments seemed to flash through his eyes at incredible speed, but he immediately returned to normal.
"I can't remember-I don't know what's going on either-"
"It's just that whenever betrayal comes up, bits of fragmented information start appearing in my mind-"
Tian Bufan mused, "It's the will carried in the Butcher's spine-when you took on its Supernatural Trait, some fragments of its will must have passed into you-"
Wei Shan narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Yi. Only when he saw that Lin Yi said nothing did he give a slight nod.
Lin Yi asked, "In that case, haven't we effectively resolved the Proto-Type Ashes Apostles' invasion of the Campus?"
"From the Campus's perspective, the incident has already formed a closed loop," Tian Bufan said fairly. "But if we count from when the Principal set out to sea, it won't form a closed loop until he returns."
A "closed loop" was the most important link in resolving logical paradoxes on infinite timelines, as well as a link that had to be achieved to prevent logical paradoxes from arising.
Lin Yi glanced at his watch.
9:56.
"Time really flies-why does it feel like it's almost mealtime again when we haven't done anything?" he muttered.
The Cafeteria opened for lunch from 10:40 to 13:20. Normally, he would already have been getting ready to head there in a little while.
Of course, they no longer needed to stick so rigidly to lunchtime.
Besides, whether they even ate now might be another matter altogether.
But as the Cafeteria flashed through his mind, Lin Yi suddenly thought: had its structure undergone some changes because the Burial Body had been eradicated?
Had it? He paused. It seemed like it had, but also like-it hadn't?
Oh, it seemed it hadn't!
