"Hmph, why are you running? Weren't you very powerful?"
Zhou Lin watched the centipede king retreat, then slung his staff over his shoulder, a wicked smile spreading across his face, looking every bit the ruffian.
A handsome, utterly roguish ruffian, at that.
The centipede king's gaze towards Zhou Lin grew serious, losing its earlier playful demeanor.
The Xuanxue professor, Old Tang, and Professor Lin, who had witnessed the scene, glanced at the deep pit on the ground.
The three of them were dumbfounded. This was bluestone brick, far harder than ordinary ground. Even without the bluestone, this ground shouldn't have a deep pit like this!
And this staff... what material was it made of? To have such an incredible item!
In the live stream.
"Holy crap, the big shot's move is truly earth-shattering. That single strike just now, if I hadn't dodged, it probably would have cracked this thing open, believe it?"
"No, not just cracked open, it would have shattered the skull. This is for sure."
"Haha, the big shot is truly amazing. This move has completely shattered my worldview, so awesome."
"But this centipede is also very powerful, it dodged quite quickly. Is that fear of danger?"
...
Inside the tomb.
The centipede king glared at Zhou Lin opposite him, then let out a roar, gathering all the centipedes on the ground.
Captain Lin and the other archaeological team members, seeing that the danger from the centipedes had passed, stopped their actions.
Especially the archaeological team members, their faces were flushed with exhaustion, their breathing unsteady, their lips pale. They leaned on their knees, looking at the centipedes.
"These... centipedes... what... what's going on?"
One of the team members stammered.
"How... how would I know? I was just running for my life with you guys. Damn it, I'm exhausted. One more time and I'll die here."
Another was also panting, clearly worn out.
Captain Lin and the other mercenaries watched as the centipedes gathered together, all facing Zhou Lin, their gazes fixed.
"What are you still standing there for? Come over here."
The Xuanxue professor called out to the mercenaries and archaeological team members, urging them to come closer now that the centipedes were gone.
The team members began to sprinkle the medicinal powder they held onto the ground, ensuring that even if these things approached, they wouldn't be harmed.
Everyone quickly stood within the circle, watching Zhou Lin's situation.
But Zhou Lin seemed unfazed, simply holding his staff and standing quietly opposite them.
Watching the centipede king display its prowess.
"Roar..."
The centipede king's heart was filled with rage as it looked at Zhou Lin, then it issued a command, intending to tear Zhou Lin to pieces.
Just as the centipedes were advancing towards Zhou Lin, they saw Zhou Lin muttering something, and then he instantly vanished from his spot.
This move stunned not only the centipede king but also the mercenaries and archaeological team members behind them.
"What's going on? Where's Zhou Lin?"
Old Tang scanned his surroundings for Zhou Lin's figure but saw nothing. He rubbed his eyes, uncertain.
"Old Lin, am I seeing things?"
Old Tang looked at Professor Lin beside him, his face filled with shock and surprise.
"I don't know. I don't think I'm seeing things, because I also saw Zhou Lin disappear."
Professor Lin replied, not entirely certain.
What was going on? They were all bewildered, looking around the environment.
They simply couldn't see Zhou Lin's shadow.
"Holy crap, does Professor Zhou Lin know invisibility?"
One of the team members exclaimed in shock after seeing this.
The other team members echoed his sentiment.
In the live stream.
"Damn, my big shot is still an awe-inspiring existence. Anyone who sees this will think he's amazing."
"Is this invisibility? Why haven't I seen the big shot use it before? This is so cool, it's a personal skill."
"Yeah, this skill is definitely classic, but where is the big shot going now?"
"I don't know, maybe hiding somewhere to ambush?"
"This ability is definitely an ambush skill, very powerful."
"I'm just wondering what will happen next?"
In the Dean's conference room.
"If this skill could be taught, Professor Zhou Lin's classes would definitely be packed."
Professor Hu said excitedly.
Professor Wen, though silent, showed his joy through his expression.
If Zhou Lin offered a class, he would definitely attend.
But others weren't thinking about classes, but rather where Zhou Lin had gone.
Had he hidden somewhere? How could he have disappeared?
"Look, Zhou Lin has reappeared."
Just as everyone was searching the screen for Zhou Lin, they heard other professors' voices from the side.
The entire conference room looked at the big screen, afraid of missing a single detail.
Inside the tomb.
Zhou Lin's figure appeared behind the centipede king, then he was in mid-air.
He raised his staff high.
Then he increased the force in his hand.
"Roar..."
The centipede king's waist was struck hard, and it let out a furious roar.
The entire cave was filled with the centipede king's pained cries.
Behind the intense sounds, Old Tang and the others watched as a dent appeared on the centipede king's body.
One could imagine how painful that attack was, its bones must have been broken!
Zhou Lin's attack was truly incredible, it looked painful just watching it.
"Holy crap, this attack, I give it full marks, it's so powerful."
Another mercenary exclaimed after seeing this.
His words were filled with joy.
Old Tang and Professor Lin felt their own waists ache after seeing this. Zhou Lin's attack was truly brutal.
After the attack, Zhou Lin vanished again.
The centipede king roared, writhing its body as if in pain, but in this situation...
Zhou Lin emerged from the shadows again, seizing the opportunity to strike, but just as he was about to attack, he saw the centipede's tail suddenly twist.
Then it was about to use its thick tail to smash Zhou Lin heavily against the wall, along with the viscous fluid on its tail, a double venomous plan.
Zhou Lin saw this and wanted to retreat, but it was too late.
"Damn it, he ambushed!"
