Chapter 42 Inviting the Enemy into the Trap

There's something fishy behind the mirror!

With his keen senses, Lin Bei found the source of the gaze almost instantly.

He went back into the room and carefully examined the mirror that seemed to be watching him.

That's when I realized how clever the mirror's shape and placement were.

It is both inconspicuous and minimizes the possibility of being noticed, while also maximizing its proximity to the doors and windows of the main house.

Lin Bei stood next to the mirror and looked in the direction it faced. He could see most of the main house and the scene outside the doors and windows.

It seems the mystery lies with this mirror.

Returning to the mirror, Lin Bei felt the increasingly unrestrained gaze reflected in it.

A slight smile curved her lips.

interesting!

Then the next moment.

Without warning, Lin Bei punched himself in the mirror.

"Splash..."

In an instant, the mirror shattered into pieces that flew in all directions.

Lin Bei also saw that behind the mirror was a bright orange copper pipe, with a perfectly polished mirror embedded at the broken end of the pipe.

This is!

periscope?

Lin Bei was taken aback.

He thought there was something behind the mirror.

Ghosts, people with special abilities, or some other random thing.

But no one expected it to be a periscope.

This discovery left Lin Bei somewhat dazed.

After killing the Eye-Eared Demon, he originally thought the world would head in a fantastical direction.

But I never expected to encounter something so scientific.

Just as Lin Bei discovered the periscope, in the underground experimental base, Oda's family head finally ran to the observation room.

He shouted loudly as soon as he came in:

"Don't look at him!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, he saw the people in the observation room staring blankly at the observation window that could connect all the observation mirrors through special technology.

Seeing everyone in the observation room looking like this, Oda's heart sank.

He immediately pushed his way through the crowd to the observation window, and then he saw one observation window after another going dark.

Oda, the head of the Oda family, immediately realized that he was too late.

The doctor's rash and undisguised observation indeed caught Lin Bei's attention.

Lin Bei discovered the observation mirror they had hidden behind the mirror.

This led Lin Bei to begin searching for and destroying all the hidden observation mirrors.

As he watched one observation mirror after another being destroyed, Oda felt his heart bleeding.

It should be noted that the island nation's current industrial processing capabilities are insufficient to produce precision lenses suitable for use in observation microscopes.

Therefore, all the lenses on his observation scope were imported from abroad.

Even a scratch, let alone damage, would break his heart.

What's more, such a large number of them were destroyed.

However, it's never too late to mend the fence after the sheep are lost.

He immediately gave instructions to the operator in the observation room.

"Immediately shut down all observation mirrors."

"This person's perception is extremely strong."

"Any attempt to observe is likely to attract this person's attention."

"You must immediately turn off the observation mirror and stop trying to observe the other side with it. This way, the other side will not be able to lock onto our observation equipment through experiments."

However, upon hearing Oda's words, the doctor gave a bitter smile.

"I've tried it, it doesn't work!"

"I even had the light conversion center removed."

"But this person seemed completely unaffected."

"They were still able to pinpoint our observation scope with perfect accuracy and destroy it."

Upon hearing the doctor's words, the head of the Oda family was speechless.

"How is this possible!"

But when he thought about how Lin Bei could pinpoint his location with unerring accuracy in the pitch-black night,

Suddenly, I realized that it wasn't so impossible after all.

He guessed that Lin Bei might have a perception ability beyond the norm, just like some of the experimental subjects in their experiment.

It can locate people or things without relying on vision.

However, what Oda, the head of the Oda family, did not expect was...

Although Lin Bei was perceptive, his senses were not as absurd as Lin Bei imagined.

The reason Lin Bei was able to lock onto Oda's head was that he marked him with his aura at the same time he saw him.

But the gaze that was peeping just now came from underground.

Lin Bei could neither see the other party nor mark them with his aura.

The reason they were able to accurately locate the observation mirrors hidden throughout the town was...

Actually, it was his almost superhuman memory ability that made him stand out.

While he was searching for clues about the escaped head of the Oda family,

He had actually memorized all the places he had been.

After discovering the strangeness of the mirror,

He went straight through his memories.

Search your memory for furniture and decorations that seem reasonable at first glance but are actually suspicious upon closer inspection.

Then verify them one by one.

The final result is almost identical.

However, to Lin Bei's disappointment...

Although he found and destroyed many observation mirrors, he still found something when he dug down the copper pipe.

But all they could find was solid reinforced concrete.

Aside from making him realize that there might be a secret base underground in the town, he gained nothing else.

They were unable to capture the wounded and fleeing shadowy figure, nor could they find the entrance to the secret underground base.

While Lin Bei was struggling on the ground, the head of the Oda family underground had already decisively issued an order.

"Everyone, prepare for battle!"

"Ten minutes later, lure the enemy into the underground base."

"Then close the door and beat the dog."

Upon hearing Oda's order, the entire underground base seemed to come alive.

Researchers, technicians, and defense personnel, totaling nearly a hundred people, all armed, arrived at the pre-arranged location.

Prepare for the enemy to come to our door.

After receiving the message that everyone was ready, Oda, the head of the family, solemnly opened the passage leading to the underground base.

In fact, Oda's actions were a last resort.

He had witnessed Lin Bei's strength firsthand.

The two most capable fighters in the entire base are the Sasara brothers, Sasaki and Sasaki.

They all died at Lin Bei's hands like mere underlings.

In his view, Lin Bei, though not as good as the monsters of the Demon Slayer Corps, was not far off.

Therefore, even if you include everyone in the base, even the rats and flies, they would still be no match for Lin Bei in battles outside.

But underground bases are different.

The complex terrain and countless traps and secret passages,

It is the greatest limitation on an individual's power.

What's more, they also have secret weapons.

He was confident that he could capture Lin Bei alive as long as Lin Bei was allowed to come in.

Just as Oda and everyone in the underground base were on high alert, Lin Bei's keen ears caught the sound of a mechanism being activated.

Along with the sound, there was also an indescribable sense of excitement.

It was as if something underground was drawing him in.

Following the sound and this inexplicable feeling, Lin Bei jogged along.

However, when he arrived at the place, he was immediately surprised.

The sound came from the very spot where he had struck the shadowy figure with a stone.

More accurately, it was in the room where the shadow disappeared.

Lin Bei stepped inside and immediately saw a hole on the ground that had been opened, only big enough for one person to pass through.
