Chapter 758: Misjudgment

The channel flickered, he stopped to "listen."

For all the war zones, verbally, opinions of Lin An varied, even mixed praise and blame.

But everyone deep down knew clearly.

Trash talk is trash talk.

If one truly treats an Awakened One who issued a "monopoly" announcement as trash, that would be an insult to intelligence.

Whether it's Chen Yangtian's excuse about stealing the Safety Token, or Lin An truly relying on his own ability repeatedly achieving first place worldwide.

In the eyes of the external war zones, Lin An is at least an unknown and mysterious existence.

His strength, too, won't be lacking.

"Lin An wants us to retreat from the secret room? And then gather internally?!"

"The North America War Zone has long been in the labyrinth's inner circle?"

"The inner circle's secret rooms have higher numbers, more points?!"

Eyes flickering, many people suddenly realized.

The crowd was noisy.

Looking at Lin An's brief message, the Awakened Ones of the major war zones had varied expressions.

The North America War Zone's plan is actually not complicated; with a clear train of thought one can realize what they intend to do.

But thinking is just thinking.

When most people realize the North America War Zone's true intention, they instead choose to "make a fortune in silence."

But no one expected, Lin An directly pierced this layer of window paper.

He actually wants all Awakened Ones to rush to the labyrinth's inner circle!

Besides surprise, there is some confusion...

Not only is it hard to understand Lin An's move, they also find his last line utterly absurd.

(The only way to solve this trial is to kill the Crying Angel!)

The Caucasus War Zone Awakened One, a male as tall as 2.4 meters, bent at the waist, his whole body like a cheetah maintaining a ready-to-run posture.

He rhythmically swayed his forearms, his face full of astonishment:

"This kid Lin An is somewhat interesting."

"Without his reminder, we'd probably still be farming points on the outskirts..."

Just that.

The cheetah-man turned his head to glance at his teammate, the yellow-white patterns on his face wrinkling into a bunch:

"His proposed solution is perhaps too fake..."

He snorted with laughter:

"Who hasn't thought of this?"

The Caucasus Awakened Ones behind him impatiently glanced at the time, they still planned to farm another wave of points:

"If that monster could be killed, we would have killed it long ago!"

"Even third-rank attacks leave not a scratch; what does Lin An plan to do?"

"Relying on his pitiful dozen-odd strength? Relying on us suppressed pitiful worms?"

Unlike the Arbiter in the strength trial.

At least the triangular monster can be fought with lives, but how do you strike the Crying Angel?

Its defense cannot be broken, its speed is unimaginably fast.

To kill it with force is absolutely impossible!

It's precisely because everyone clearly realizes this that they will believe the North America War Zone's explanation.

As for the agility trial, naturally it tests who can run fast.

As long as one isn't greedy.

Finish farming then run; whoever runs fastest survives.

"Who cares..."

The cheetah-like Awakened One bent his body, casually swaying his limbs.

"If Lin An wants to kill, let him kill; I'd rather see how he dies!"

He licked his lips.

"However, he has one point that's correct."

"We must hurry to the labyrinth's inner circle, otherwise the higher-numbered secret rooms will all be snatched!"

"Go! Let's set off now!"

The same scene repeatedly unfolds in various parts of the labyrinth.

Some furrowed their brows, speculating whether Lin An had found a special prop, like something inside the stone coffin that could actually kill the Crying Angel.

Some remained silent, just lowering their heads and rushing onward.

The location of Huaxia and the North America War Zone.

Chen Yangtian's expression was indifferent, as if he hadn't seen the trial channel at all:

"Speed up and swap in!"

"Chris, quickly have people occupy the secret room entrance; we must not only not stop, but also seize advantageous terrain before others arrive!"

Upon hearing the voice, he was stunned.

In this trial, the North America War Zone's leader Chris frowned, instinctively asking Chen Yangtian:

"Increase speed?"

Lin An isn't saying... if he keeps grinding points, there'll be big trouble.

Wait till he comes, then we'll talk?

Although I don't really believe Lin An's explanation, and I'm even a bit annoyed that he pierced this layer of window paper.

But given Lin An's past reputation, he still couldn't help but think about it.

The usually quiet Lin An suddenly pulled off such a show.

I always feel something's fishy...

Chen Yangtian glanced at Chris, smirked inwardly, and spoke without changing his expression:

"Chris, don't overthink it."

"The Crying Angel can't be killed."

"Even an idiot can see that the foundation of any attack is breaking defense."

"With our three major attributes weakened, we can't even breach monster defenses."

"That's common sense!"

"Maybe he doesn't understand humans well, but Chen Yangtian is arrogant, convinced he fully understands monsters!"

"A creature like the Crying Angel is akin to an evil god; don't expect to resolve it with force!"

"Maybe... the Fourth Stage can do it."

"But the Third Stage is impossible, and Lin An is even less likely."

"To dispel Chris's doubts, Chen Yangtian bluntly launched into his analysis:"

"No need to wonder why Lin An did this."

"I can guess his thoughts even with my eyes closed!"

"It's just that he also wants to go into the labyrinth's inner ring to farm points, to get a piece of the pie!"

"But with us here, and many Awakened Ones wanting to gang up on him, what do you think he'll do?"

"He let out a light chuckle:"

"Lin An isn't exactly an idiot; he could think of this move to stir up the situation."

"He announced that the inner ring contains a high-numbered secret room; isn't that just fishing in troubled waters?"

"When a crowd gathers, they'll all come; then he can take advantage of the chaos to farm points and escape."

"No surprise, the news about the inner ring must have come from Zhang Yong."

"Chen Yangtian turned his head, displeased, and glanced at the deputy commander of the Huaxia War Zone."

"No need to think; surely this deputy figured Zhang Yong and Lin An were at least his own people, so he simply leaked their plan."

"Now it's set, with a crowd gathering..."

"Their point-farming plan is not only disrupted; many Awakened Ones in the channel are condemning them for wanting to hog the rewards."

"A bunch of buzzing flies!"

"The deputy, after being glared at, was stunned and also roughly understood Chen Yangtian's gaze."

"He felt somewhat wronged."

"He didn't say anything to Zhang Yong at all..."

"I just sent a coordinate to Zhang Yong..."

"Everything else was really figured out by Lin An's group."

"Chris, after hearing that, let out a sigh of relief; nobody likes being refuted, and even less likes having their judgment called a dead end."

"Then it looks like that's how it is."

"Using your Huaxia ancient saying, is Lin An's move a case of killing three birds with one stone?"

"It lets him fish in troubled waters, boost his reputation, and cause us trouble..."

"I believe many small war zones will feel indebted to him and deliberately join forces to oppose us..."

"Conflict and slaughter remain the main theme of the apocalypse."
