Bai Ye began to ponder.

The building is currently without power, so the surveillance cameras are no longer working.

He began to use the process of elimination to calculate all possible observation points.

To simultaneously observe all those scattered explosion points, the observer's location would be extremely limited, perhaps even unique.

He incorporated his own perspective into the model and checked all the possible high points.

For example, ventilation duct openings, corners of fire escape staircases, ceiling plenums, and glass roofs...

But no trace was found.

"Could the other party be able to turn invisible?" Bai Ye frowned.

If that's the case, then things are in trouble.

A demolition expert who can turn invisible is everyone's nightmare.

Just when he was at his wit's end, Lingxia, who had been following closely behind him, suddenly spoke up in a low voice.

"Zhao He... Brother, are you... are you looking for someone?"

Bai Ye glanced at her.

The girl seemed a little scared by his gaze, but she still mustered her courage and continued:

"I...I might...be able to help you."

"Can you help?" Bai Ye's voice carried a hint of scrutiny.

Despite the absolute darkness and the threat of death, this seemingly innocent girl did not panic like Wang Meng.

Unlike Li Wei, he didn't break down and run away. Instead, he remained unusually calm, which was quite unusual in itself.

"Um!"

Lingxia nodded vigorously, seemingly to encourage herself. She took a deep breath and explained softly:

"My ability is [Extraordinary Radiation Perception]."

"Extraordinary radiation perception?" Bai Ye repeated the term.

"Yes!" Lingxia explained in more detail:

"I can 'see' the unique energy radiation emanating from extraordinary and grotesque individuals."

"Like...like thermal imaging."

"I sensed those bizarre mantises appearing suddenly just now because of this."

She added somewhat shyly:

"However... I'm only at the twelfth level right now, and my abilities are still very weak. My perception range is limited, and I can only penetrate a relatively thin wall at most."

Bai Ye's heart was instantly stirred!

Exceptional radiation perception!

He understood instantly!

This ability is practically tailor-made for this situation!

He was fixated on using "vision" to find the enemy, but he overlooked the fact that the Extraordinary One is a humanoid luminous being!

"You can also see the radiation from extraordinary beings?" Bai Ye pressed, his voice carrying a barely perceptible hint of urgency.

"Yes, I can!" Lingxia nodded confidently.

"very good."

Bai Ye made a decisive decision; he wasted no more time.

He immediately pointed to the few suspicious vantage points he had just identified in his mind:

"Could you check if any of these spots are occupied?"

"good!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Lingxia immediately closed her beautiful big eyes.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she entered a wonderfully focused state.

In her "vision," the whole world became a wondrous painting composed of halos of different colors and intensities.

The grotesque is a hideous blood red, while the extraordinary ones display varying shades of gold or white light depending on their strength.

A few seconds later, she suddenly opened her eyes, a look of horror on her face, and raised her slender finger to point...the top of her head!

"Up there! Right above us! There's a very, very strong humanoid radiation source! That light... it's so blinding!"

Top of the head?

Bai Ye suddenly looked up at the deep darkness.

Above them was the enormous, transparent glass dome of this atrium-style building!

That's one of the best observation points in the entire building!

From there, you can have a clear view of everything on the twelve floors below!

He had just observed that area, but it was deserted.

Now it seems they've managed to hide using some means.

And that bomb-wielding monster probably also possesses some kind of "invisibility" ability.

……

The perspective shifts to the glass dome above.

The bomb-wielding monster was lying on the cold steel frame.

Like a lurking spider, it observes with great interest the few "prey" trembling in the darkness below through night vision binoculars.

He has already completed two spectacular "fireworks shows" and is just one step away from success.

He was in a good mood, and even somewhat enjoyed the feeling of having control over other people's lives and deaths.

Just then, he suddenly saw something unexpected through his binoculars.

The person below, whom he had always regarded as a "weak doctor," the one wearing a white coat, "Zhao He," slowly raised his head.

Despite being nearly a hundred meters apart, separated by thick glass, and in complete darkness, the other person's gaze met his with incredible precision...

In that instant, the bomber's heart skipped a beat!

How is that possible?!

This was the first thought that flashed through the bomber's mind.

He had absolute confidence in the stage he had set up.

He lay prone at the highest point of the glass dome, activating his extraordinary ability at the zeroth level of awakening—[Static Optical Camouflage].

This ability allows him to blend seamlessly into his surroundings when he is stationary, achieving a near-perfect optical invisibility effect.

In addition, the building was pitch black at the moment, so the people below could not even see their own companions, let alone spot him!

How did he find me?

Coincidence? Or...?

For the first time, a sense of unease arose in the heart of the bomb-wielding demon.

He preferred to believe it was just a coincidence.

However, the next moment, he saw that "Zhao He's" eyes suddenly turn into pure, bottomless black in the darkness!

An indescribable, extreme sense of crisis, like a cold, venomous snake, instantly coiled around his heart and then tightened violently!

run!

That was the only thought in his mind!

In that instant, he didn't even have time to think about what ability the other party had used.

They didn't care about being invisible anymore. The instinct for survival overwhelmed everything!

Like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, he did an extremely clumsy, lazy roll from the lurking steel frame and frantically dodged to the side!

The very next second after he left his original position.

[Twisted Shadow] activated!

"Crack—Boom!"

The glass dome where he had been hiding, along with the steel frame below, was where he had been lying in wait.

Like a piece of crumpled tin foil, it was instantly twisted into a huge, hideous mass of scrap iron by an invisible force!

Glass shards rained down like a storm, crashing loudly in the darkness.

The bomber was terrified by this horrific scene and broke out in a cold sweat.

He was certain that if he had been a mere 0.1 seconds later, he would already be a pile of scrap metal like those steel bars and glass!

His invisibility was instantly lost due to the intense movement, and his figure was completely exposed to the air.

Still shaken, he looked down, trying to find the "doctor" who had attacked him.

However, the figure of "Zhao He" below had already disappeared.

What about people?

Suddenly, a cold, emotionless voice, like a death knell from the deepest hell, abruptly sounded behind him:

Are you...looking for me?
