Chapter 755: I Am Watching You
fyMuscles all over his body were tense.
In an instant, Lin An blasted back a step, his speed exploding to the limit.
Only see a black shadow suddenly rush out from the corner, the airflow from the sonic boom stinging the skin painfully, it roared loudly in the sealed room.
It almost grazed the tip of his nose as it passed.
Feeling the terrifying speed of the Crying Angel once again, Lin An dared not stop and had to change direction.
"Boom!!"
Deafening.
The Crying Angel that didn't hit him locked onto its position mechanically after stiffening for one second.
In the ferocious face carved from stone, those lifeless eyes were awe-inspiring.
Smoke and dust billowed.
The secret room shook violently.
Zhang Tie and the others waiting outside the secret room felt their hearts almost jump to their throats.
"Lin Dui!!..."
Powerless.
Before Zhang Tie's talent cooldown recovered, anyone who entered would die.
Frantically dodging.
Inside the secret room, Lin An and the Crying Angel statue turned into two black afterimages, moving at high speed in the small room.
One after another, the mixed sonic booms blended into a sharp whine.
Wall dust shook loose.
The stone wall, made of unknown material, was extremely hard.
The impact force capable of killing any Awakened One turned into an invisible kinetic wave that surged across the wall.
Never before had he dodged so intensely.
With his physique weakened, Lin An could clearly feel his internal spiritual energy racing like knives through his blood vessels.
His bones screamed.
A roar rang in his ears.
Lactic acid flooded his system, his blood pumping as if rushing into his heart.
His retinas became congested.
The inertia from high-speed movement was enough to tear apart an ordinary person's body.
In past battles, he only needed to dodge lethal attacks, and sometimes couldn't even be bothered to dodge.
But now.
Lin An felt as if every second he were dancing on the tip of a blade.
Even if the statue merely grazed him, the touched limb would instantly shatter into meat paste.
He forcibly split his will into two parts.
One part dodged the statue's impacts, while the other observed the replayed scene.
37 seconds...
39 seconds!
As if in slow motion.
His mind jolted.
After barely twisting away from one impact, Lin An strained to look at the image of the deceased.
From a third-person perspective.
He saw the man moving the statue suddenly cry out, his palm seeming to be burned.
After he turned his eyes toward the statue's back-facing face, a faint silver flashed from the edge of the scene.
The problem lies right here!
He missed no detail.
His pupils contracted, Lin An strained to record every detail.
These images can only be seen from a third-person perspective!
He didn't believe that the Crying Angel's attack time truly depended only on its number.
The monster's ability to steal time by eye contact in the plot had no reason to disappear.
He clearly remembered that when he and others encountered the monster's attack, there was never that silver light.
What, exactly, is the trigger for the monster's move?
In the replayed image, the Awakened One trying to move the stone statue looked horrified.
At the moment the Crying Angel lowered its palm, a line of blood tears slowly flowed down.
"Boom!!"
He instinctively turned his head, and in an instant it shattered.
After the nearest Awakened One died, the others finally reacted.
The slaughter began.
The dying cries of humans echoed.
"Boom!!"
"Boom!!!"
Time reached 40 seconds...
Both eyes blood-red.
Now!
His stamina has reached its limit.
Lin An dared not miss a single second's detail, and without hesitation activated Karmic Reversal.
Descent!
One of the special effects from Uninterrupted Talent, the Descent effect suddenly enveloped the entire secret chamber.
The weakening effect was ineffective, but almost the moment it was activated, he felt a familiar sensation from having used it before.
Blink!
Heiyu enveloped, and after returning to peak state, the activated Descent effect covered the entire area.
The exhausted state at the limit swiftly recovered.
After a white light appeared, Lin An strangely appeared behind the Crying Angel.
As fast as his thoughts, so fast is his Blink!
He can still last 20 seconds!
Enough!
In the replayed scene, every frame is etched in his eyes.
He needs time to see clearly, to see clearly what exactly happened at the stone coffin before these people died.
He also needs to compare, to compare the experiences of both sides in the secret chamber.
And...
He clearly remembers the abnormality in the stone coffin's crack, but he just can't recall that scene.
2 seconds later.
After consecutively activating the Blink skill, a flash of astonishment crossed Lin An's eyes.
Indeed, there is a problem.
The Crying Angel encountered by the first batch of victims was clearly weaker than the one he encountered.
Although the difference is not great, whoever touches it dies.
But through repeated comparison, Lin An could see that the Crying Angel he faced was faster!
This is unreasonable.
According to common sense, the first batch of entrants numbered 15, while the people he brought in numbered only 9.
No matter how you think about it, the other side should have encountered greater difficulty.
Moreover, this is his second entry, which is precisely the Crying Angel he is facing now.
Its speed shows no reduction, and is exactly the same as last time.
After ruling out all possibilities.
Lin An instantly came to a conclusion.
The Crying Angel's speed is not constant.
The secret chambers have the same number, indicating that speed is unrelated to the number.
The first batch of victims also stayed the longest in time, indicating that speed is unrelated to time as well.
Then the only possibility...
is that the Crying Angel's speed depends solely on the strength of the entrants.
This monster is absolutely also at the limit of speed.
Otherwise, he could not possibly be in such a sorry state.
The first time, with Zhang Tie blocking, he didn't feel much.
But now...
Lin An couldn't help but feel his heart sink.
Does the faster speed mean the monster faced is stronger?
What is the reason? Is the system specifically targeting him?
Holding doubts.
He simply repeatedly retrieved the segment of the silver light appearing in the replayed scene.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Repeated explosions, like meteorite impacts.
Continuous high-speed impacts forced Lin An to constantly dodge.
When he really couldn't dodge, he could only use the Blink skill again.
As time passed, his anxiety grew ever stronger.
He simply couldn't tell what it was...
Only a fleeting glimpse, a fragment.
He could not obtain more information from the replayed scene.
His gaze turned fierce.
58 seconds!
He gasped heavily, activating the Uninterrupted, Demonic, and Reversal Triple State.
Lin An again pulled back, taking a deep breath to cut off the replayed scene.
Since you can't see it, there's nothing worth seeing.
The first batch of victims all died at the 56‑second mark.
Starting from the 30‑second mark, except for the first victim who died instantly at 30 seconds, the remaining people in the sealed room died at a rate of one per second.
The entire team of 27 people lasted 26 seconds.
Weeping Angel, it fought its way out of the sealed room.
Since the replay of the first batch of victims gave him no more information, he left the remaining time for what he himself had seen.
Replay!
Image locked, stone coffin seam!
The final two seconds of the time limit.
Lin An placed his last hope on what he had seen.
I must have seen something!
Even if it was just a moment!
The image flowed.
All I saw was the replayed image jumping back to the moment when it faced the stone coffin.
In that tiny stone crack, Lin An saw "it".
Zoom in, zoom in, zoom again.
In the frozen frame.
At the stone coffin's crack, there was a pair of bluish‑white eyes.
His heartbeat skipped.
He instinctively looked toward the stone coffin.
Lin An finally understood what the hidden trait of the Weeping Angel really was.
Inside the stone coffin, there was also a second monster.
It.
It was sapping my strength.
It was sapping my strength.
