Gathered from the range between the cemetery and the hotel, all the eyes from suicides, gentlemen (protection fees), and the deceased converged under the Evil Technique controlled by Little Grape into a single eye. When this eye opened on the surface of Yi Chen’s brain, He could see everything clearly, including the acceptable spectrum of light, the state of dust movement, the vital activity of Surgical Thread, and the joint movements of the deputy dean. Yi Chen was shocked by such a boost in Vision and had not expected that Little Grape could undergo such a significant change in just a few days. “Little Grape, it seems you’ve gained quite a bit from the Stone Statue Cemetery, huh? You could even summon a Stone Coffin for defense just now, is ‘Cemetery Absorption’ one of your major traits?” Compared to Yi Chen’s questions, Little Grape was even more curious. He returned to stand behind Yi Chen once again, devoid of the familiar warmth, feeling instead like an icy, bone-piercing cave drenched in Moonlight. “As long as the cemetery is unattended, give me some time and I can drain it dry… By the way, William, what in the world happened to you?” “You’ve been following me, Little Grape, so you should be able to guess, right? Sealed deep in my brain are special memories from my lifetime, and as these memories are unearthed, a Death-related substance also gradually leaks out. The ‘Death Image’ generated by the deputy dean in my brain stimulates deep memories, putting me in a special state of Death, even allowing me to overshadow him on the Death level. Of course, my Physical body cannot maintain such a state for long. The injections of ‘Dusk thin silver liquid’ bring me more active time and also accidentally activate the residue of Moonlight left by Lorrian within me. I am currently just about on par for a battle with him, and now it all depends on you, Little Grape.” “Me?” Yi Chen explained simply, “After the skirmish just now, I’ve confirmed that the deputy dean is a ‘Sensing Type’, His physical strength and moving Speed are only average, and even his attacks covered by Death are only mediocre compared to others of the same rank. However, He can dodge all my attacks in advance and accurately, finding every flaw in my actions. If I hadn’t been in the ‘Dead Man Makeup’ pose, I would have been killed more than ten times by now. So far, not a single effective attack of mine has landed on him. Little Grape, can you predict his movements effectively?” “Definitely not! Even with assembling so many eyes to improve Vision, I still can’t do prediction… Moreover, the other guy is already a Transcender, all his senses are beyond ours. Just relying on my single eye, I can’t contend with all of his senses. Spiritual Shock won’t work against these Sensing Gentlemen either, so! William, let’s hurry up and escape, with your current state combined with mine, running away should be very easy. Flee to the Hospital in the sunlight, and meet up with Mr. Helvoye! If that guy dares to follow us there, you’ll have a better chance of winning together.” “No… I can probably maintain this for about 10 more minutes, and escaping to the Hospital in the sunlight will delay us by at least 5 minutes. Even Helvoye can’t shield the invasion and impact of Death. The deputy dean, Evatt, is far more familiar with the Hospital than us, and with his Perfect mastery of controlling Death Plague lines, once he reaches the Hospital, all the refugees and apprentices seeking sanctuary there will have ‘sensory line’ Death Images implanted in them. We must kill this guy here. By the way, how did you raise that Stone Coffin just now?” “By absorbing the essence of the Stone Statue Cemetery, I’ve become the true Master of the cemetery. As long as I’m in the city, I can call upon the remaining resources in the cemetery quickly, with the help of the first corpse – Eye Collector, Gemhar’s Evil Technique.” “So it seems, Little Grape, that you might be able to fight on your own now?” “Just barely… Wait, do you mean to tell me?” “Correct, let’s engage in a symbiotic battle to see how well the two of us can coordinate.” … The exchange of consciousness between the two lasted less than ten seconds. Clang clang~ Yi Chen felt a chain moving on his back as one of the connecting Iron Chains pierced through his skin, suspending Little Grape’s eye behind him. Even the ‘Gentleman’s Coat’ was lent to Little Grape, while Yi Chen himself wore a suit. The eye quickly Split within the coat, filling it up and emitting a terrifying evil Aura, In the hood, a group of oozing eyes crammed together, collectively focusing on the opponent. This figure even made the deputy dean show a wary look, stepping backwards several times and heightening his alertness, to avoid being subjected to the mental assault of this eye creature. Little Grape, as the transformed Eye Collector, Gemhar, maintained a connection with Yi Chen through a specially made Iron Chain, always floating behind him, both as one. Yi Chen straightened his suit collar and tie, whispering, “Let’s go!” Hum! His footsteps twisted, and his speed surged in an instant! Little Grape was startled by this scene, and had it not been for the iron chains connecting the two, Little Grape would have had no way to keep up. “Moon Step… isn’t that Lorrian’s move? William, it seems you’ve also integrated something else.” “Concentrate on the fight, Little Grape!” As Yi Chen issued the reminder, three independent iron chains sprouted from each side of his body, entwining towards the Vice Principal. He also anticipated the two possible evasion paths the Vice Principal might take, swinging an axe at one and firing a shotgun at the other. “Beyond Senses” However, the Vice Principal coolly dodged all the iron chains flawlessly. He even anticipated Yi Chen’s predictions, using surgical thread to pull himself through a highly difficult mid-air turn, avoiding the axe and gunfire. Just as he accomplished all his dodges and was about to land, a stone coffin suddenly rose from his landing point, trying to seal him inside. But the Vice Principal managed to split into the splits mid-air, standing on the coffin and the lid, and connected to the ceiling with a surgical thread, easily resolving the crisis. “You really can dodge!” Yi Chen drew his gun again, shooting at the Vice Principal hanging in mid-air. Ten surgical threads streaked before his eyes, each bullet either deflected or sliced through… Then, using one thread, the Vice Principal’s body was swung to the other side of the lobby. [Dodge] All the Vice Principal had been doing was dodging;he had absolute confidence in his senses and was waiting for Yi Chen’s “Dead Man Makeup” time to end. The moment he landed, the silver-haired Yi Chen pressed on him once again. Compared to the previous attack patterns, there was only the addition of Little Grape’s “Stone Coffin Summoning.” Since summoning the stone coffin took time, one only needed to divert a small part of their attention to sense the ground’s vibrations to avoid the impending danger from the coffin. The Vice Principal’s dodges still seemed effortless, maintaining zero mistakes. Time also ticked away, and the “Dusk thin silver liquid” flowing inside Yi Chen’s body was almost exhausted, his physical body beginning to deteriorate;some limbs even showed ghastly white bones. There were less than two minutes left. However, the atmosphere in the entire hotel had become strange. If someone passed by the Sunshine Hotel at this time, they would certainly think they had come to the wrong place, The originally magnificent lobby was now cluttered with various stone coffins, and the air was filled with the aura of a cemetery. If this person rushed to the Stone Statue Cemetery to take a look, they could identify the problem. The entire cemetery looked as though it had been robbed, most of the stone coffins were moved, and even a layer of soil between the graves had been scraped off. Inside the hotel The Vice Principal looked at Yi Chen, whose body was continuously deteriorating, and smiled, “Finally can’t hold on any longer? What a pity, if you had already broken through the Limit of Man, I wouldn’t stand a chance against you. I hope we can get along well after the Master turns you into one of the dead.” Clang clang~ Iron chains attacked, The Vice Principal dodged with ease, combining a backward somersault and a brief hover to avoid the horizontally swung axe. He was also on guard for a possibly rising stone coffin before landing… “Huh?” The stone coffin rose as usual, but this time its target was not him, but Yi Chen himself. Crack! The stone coffin closed, sealing both Yi Chen and Little Grape, who was connected behind him, inside. Faced with this sudden turn of events, the Vice Principal was momentarily stunned! Then his expression turned ferocious, and he swung his right arm violently… exerting his full power to slice open the stone coffin before him! Whoosh! Due to the special material of the stone coffin, he needed to unleash the greatest cutting power to barely open it! It even caused his fingers to bleed slightly.

However, out of the six-partitioned stone coffin emerged an unfamiliar corpse without eyes… Yi Chen was gone. “No! He can’t escape. If I can’t bring him back, I’ll lose the Master’s trust in me!”
