Seeing the overwhelming barrage of nets and arrows, Linnaeus thought to himself, "This trap is quite well set..."
The angle is tricky; even if an average player manages to dodge the first explosion of the trap rune, they won't escape the second wave of traps.
However, Linnaeus is certainly not an ordinary player.
He flipped backward again, leaning back to easily dodge the incoming arrows.
However, these arrows were merely tools to restrict his movement; the giant net overhead had already covered all the angles from which he could dodge.
Lin Nai glanced forward out of the corner of her eye and quickly summoned Bai Ye.
"Whoosh—!"
"Shuashua——!"
A flash of white light, and several light blades easily sliced the giant net that had been covering the area into several small pieces.
Linnaeus fell from the tall oak tree, landing steadily on the ground.
However, after landing, Linnai discovered that there was a trap talisman buried in the ground...
No, it should be at least a dozen trap talismans!
"Whoosh!"
The ground beneath Linnaeus's feet, spanning a diameter of over ten meters, suddenly sank.
Beneath their feet lay a dark, underground trap!
Lin Nai realized he had been careless: "Damn it... there's a third wave!"
Moreover, the hole beneath his feet was no ordinary one; the surrounding soil and quicksand seemed to be alive, rapidly entangling and binding Linnai's limbs, making it difficult for him to move.
It was as if giant hands were pulling him alive into the hole and burying him alive!
Linnaeus tried to break free with his strength, but the harder he tried, the tighter the quicksand became, rendering him completely powerless. Soon, his limbs were completely immobile.
In the end, only the head was still sticking out.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"It's a success!"
"After waiting for ages, someone finally arrived!"
"Sister Chen Yu really knows how to do things!"
Three contestants jumped out from the surrounding bushes.
Two boys and one girl.
They approached Linnaeus from three directions.
Lin Nai calmed down and looked at the three people who had surrounded her. The two boys were both level 5.3, and the girl was level 5.6.
He tried again, but his body below the head was completely immobile.
Even gathering soul power is extremely difficult.
The quicksand underneath could actually suppress his soul power!
"This guy actually managed to dodge so many of our consecutive traps, he's got some skills."
"Yeah yeah."
"Huh? This guy looks kind of familiar?"
"He...he's Linnai, the apostle of the White Reaper who was trending on social media before?!"
Linnaeus: "..."
"Oh?" The only girl walked over. She was a pretty little girl with a French princess hairstyle and wearing a Lolita dress. As soon as she heard that Lin Nai was an apostle, she became very curious about Lin Nai. "So you are Lin Nai?"
Chen Yu squatted down in front of Lin Nai's head, carefully observing Lin Nai's face, her eyes shining: "What a handsome young man! Even more handsome than the ones I saw in the news!" As she spoke, she stretched out her two fair and tender little hands and pinched Lin Nai's cheeks.
Linnaeus: "..."
The boy next to her looked a little jealous and couldn't help but say, "Sister Chen Yu, he's our rival now..."
Chen Yu blinked, completely ignoring the boy behind her, and continued rubbing Lin Nai's face in front of her: "Hey bro, do you have a girlfriend? After this competition, do you want to go on a date with me?"
The two boys behind him: "??!!"
"No," Lin Nai refused decisively.
"Why?" Chen Yu looked very sad.
Lin Nai said with a serious expression, "Because it's because you use reduplicated words, it's disgusting."
"..." Chen Yu pouted, looking sad.
A boy behind them couldn't help but say, "Sister Chen Yu, let's hurry up and get the Life Bead on him to eliminate him. This guy is an Apostle, we have to deal with him quickly to avoid any complications."
"Hmm... okay, you're right." Chen Yu thought for a moment, then looked at Lin Nai: "Since you won't go on a date with me, then I'll just have to eliminate you!"
Linnaeus: "..."
Chen Yu smiled faintly and said, "It's no use. I can feel through the quicksand that your body has been trying to use your soul power to break free, but you're wasting your energy."
"My quicksand can restrict the condensation of soul power nodes within your body, just like your trachea. If it's compressed by an external force, you can't breathe smoothly. So, once you fall into my quicksand trap, no matter how powerful your soul power is, if you can't unleash it, it's as if it's empty~"
Linna thought to herself: 'I see...'
Since she can sense the changes in the quicksand underground, it means that the activity of this quicksand is ultimately maintained by her soul power.
In that case...
"Alright, now you'd better hand over the Life Bead obediently~" Chen Yu stuck out her tongue and said playfully to Lin Nai, "You're so beautiful, I can't bear to torture you."
Lin Nai raised her head slightly, her pupils gradually turning into a pure silver-gray: "Then you can take it yourself."
"Divine Art - Gray Eye!"
Chen Yu was taken aback.
Those silver-gray eyes were like a bottomless abyss, instantly swallowing her soul completely!
Chen Yu felt his soul power draining away rapidly!
A notification appeared on the panel in front of Linnai.
[Note: Energy is continuously being consumed; Divine Power -1]
[Notification: Absorbing unknown energy, Soul Power +417...]
[Note: Energy is continuously being consumed; Divine Power -1]
[Notification: Absorbing unknown energy, Soul Power +428...]
"What...what's going on??"
In just a few seconds, Chen Yu's face turned deathly pale.
As a level 5.6 superhuman, his soul power was completely drained in just a few seconds...
"What...what did you do to me?"
Chen Yu's soul power was completely drained, and he swayed unsteadily. His vision blurred, and he stumbled and fell to the ground, his fair knees hitting the ground and bleeding.
Lin Nai felt that after absorbing Chen Yu's soul power, the quicksand that was trapping him had clearly loosened.
"boom!"
Lin Nai unleashed his soul power, his body shot up, and he leaped out from underground, gripping Bai Ye.
