Chapter 763: Zhang Yong's speculation

~7 min read 1,287 words

The crowd panicked.

The Awakened Ones originally intercepted outside the secret room were like headless flies.

Relief, panic.

Hearing the sounds coming from the North America and Huaxia war zones, and the frantically jumping numbers.

Even without seeing the monsters break out, everyone realized disaster had descended.

"Whoosh!"

An afterimage passed through the crowd.

Lin An, erupting with full speed, went straight through the crowd and headed straight for Room 1996.

The strong wind pressure gave the nearby Awakened Ones a sudden fright.

At that moment, they even thought it was the Crying Angel breaking out.

"What just happened!!"

"Where are we going?"

At a loss.

The crowd gathered together looked at Lin An's back in bewilderment.

With their reaction speed, they could barely make out a black shadow.

"It seems... to be Lin An?"

Not quite sure.

But someone indeed saw that signature mask.

The change happened too fast, so fast that nobody had time to think about where to flee or what to do.

Many Awakened Ones lacking courage, or wanting to preserve the war zone's fire seed, even directly withdrew from the trial.

Taking advantage of not yet being in combat, this was the only way of survival they could think of.

Every survivor who had made it through the power trial had described the grim situation when danger increased, still feeling lingering fear.

"Lin An!!"

"How could it be him!!"

The crowd repeated that name over and over, even though they were extremely familiar with those two characters.

Incredible.

Just a few seconds ago, their impression of Lin An was still limited to an empty reputation.

After all, in the power trial, Chen Yangtian and others performed too strikingly.

"Follow him!"

"He warned there would be danger!"

The representatives of several mid-sized war zones reacted the fastest.

Just like a drowning person clutching at straws.

They could not afford the price of withdrawing now, but they also had no idea what to do.

Then.

Following someone who had given an early warning was undoubtedly the correct course.

In the midst of panic and hesitation,

Explosions sounded one after another.

Nobody knew why there were explosions.

But in the panic, those with super-limit vision could even barely see the scattered debris splashed at the corner.

Blood flowed like a river.

The passage at that corner seemed like a slaughterhouse shrouded in black light.

The monsters are about to come slaughter us!

Even the two major war zones of Huaxia and North America, each with hundreds of people, could not even block a bit.

"Don't hesitate any longer!"

"Run!"

"Lin An is right! The North America war zone killed everyone!"

Fear overwhelmed pretense; the war zone representatives who had wanted to get a share earlier now had twisted expressions, directly leading people to charge toward the direction where Lin An disappeared.

Even the thoughtful ones were thinking a lot at the same time.

Lin An's speed, and his warning...

Lin An is definitely not that simple!

Although reason told them, Lin An's claim of having slain the Crying Angel was utterly unreasonable.

But they could only believe it.

"Go! Keep up with Lin An!"

"He must know something!"

Expression twisted.

Several Awakened Ones from the small war zones slapped their stunned companions awake.

They were the worst off.

On the outskirts, they hardly found the secret room, and even if they did, they dared not farm points.

Later, when they planned to farm points, they again saw the news from the North America war zone.

After rushing around repeatedly, their points remained a pathetic zero.

Now, we have encountered this situation again.

Regretting not having acted earlier.

Many people almost kept cursing Chris in their hearts, then frantically rushed toward the direction where Lin An had disappeared.

That was still a relatively quick reaction.

In less than ten seconds, all the Awakened Ones in the passage battlefield made the same decision.

"Bang!"

The flesh was shattered.

The Awakened One running at the back, hearing that familiar voice, shuddered all over.

That was the grim reaper's countdown.

"Run!!...."

"The plan... failed... find.. Lin..."

At the passage corner.

An Awakened One of the Huaxia battlefield, affected by the blast, dragged along with only the upper half of his body left, eyes bloodshot, like a fish chopped in half on a cutting board.

The Weeping Angel collided with the warrior before him, and he was merely shattered by the aftershock.

With his last breath, he desperately turned his head to look behind.

That was a nightmare constantly moving at high speed through the crowd.

A grim smile.

He saw the vice commander desperately trying to hold back the monster, and saw Chen Yangtian turned into a mass of flesh tendrils, hiding in a wall crack.

We should...

Believe in Lin An's...

Only at the very last moment before death did he understand the meaning of Lin An's words.

Everything is already too late.

"Lin Dui, we're almost there! Where are you?"

He hurried on with his head down.

Zhang Tie coldly watched the Awakened Ones continually gathering behind him.

Many recognized him, and he forced an ugly smile while trying to ingratiate himself.

No one knew which direction to flee was correct.

No one dared guarantee what still remained inside the labyrinth.

No one could understand why the monster ignored the rules they had deduced.

The team following Lin An's companions was their only hope to hold onto.

Damn it.

He spat silently.

Xiong Hanzi looked impatiently at the nearest battlefield leader.

What have you been doing all this time?

He said not to farm points, but to first meet up with us.

Now it's fine, you think of us only when problems arise.

At this moment, several battlefield units farming points on the outskirts have already sent out brief messages before dying.

The outer labyrinth is almost completely filled with Weeping Angels.

Those monsters, like scythes, began to sweep away humanity.

Based on the monsters' killing routes, everyone could realize.

They were like mice trapped in a cage, their living space constantly being squeezed.

"Wait for me."

"I will lure the Weeping Angel out!"

Just a few seconds later.

A message from Lin An arrived.

But it left Xiong Hanzi stunned.

What does that mean?

Does Lin Dui still think there aren't enough monsters?

Zhang Yong beside him hurriedly asked.

After receiving Zhang Tie's reply, he racked his brain, as if he had grasped the key:

"Lord Lin An, are you trying to pull out a few weakened versions of the Weeping Angel?"

"But..."

"But that can't kill the monsters either!"

"The weakened angels, according to speculation, merely slow down; that doesn't mean they can be destroyed..."

According to Lin An's theory.

The power stolen by the Weeping Angel comes entirely from speed; its killing method, including its very existence, is more like a certain meme.

"Could it be..."

Zhang Yong's eyes lit up, feeling he had guessed Lin An's train of thought.

"After Lin An lures the monster out of the secret room, we can just hide in the secret room to farm points!?"

"There's no danger there; after the Weeping Angel leaves, there's no sign that they will return to the secret room once they've fully departed!"

The whole body trembled with excitement.

"I understand... I understand!"

"The speed trial is simply relying on Awakened Ones to break through their original speed and lure away the monsters!"

"Breakers cannot earn points, but they have unlocked the gene lock."

"Even those who cannot break through can earn points and unlock the gene lock."

"Whether staying in the secret room to earn points, or..."

"There's a monster hidden in the stone coffin! This is basically hinting that we should hide!"
