Chapter 458 - 454: The Long-Awaited Battle (Four)
At that moment, what Ling Chen pulled out from within his clothes was a string of springs, their shape quite peculiar, resembling a "large" character and over one meter in length.
What is that?
The crowd looked at the object in Ling Chen’s hands, their faces full of confusion. Could this be a weapon? But they had never seen a weapon of such shape before.
At this time, on the seating of the eight eccentrics, Qiu Yong and the others watched with a hint of anticipation. Especially Wei Jiahao, who was the most excited. The device that Ling Chen was wearing, which Wei Jiahao had personally crafted, was neither a weapon nor a hidden projectile, but rather a sophisticated contraption for training one’s speed.
The springs were fixed to Ling Chen’s hands and feet, and he had to endure the tension of the springs nearly all the time. He had been wearing this device since before he began his special training, whether sleeping, eating, or even during combat, he never took it off.
At the moment Ling Chen took off that device, Qiu Yong and the others were very eager to see how he would perform.
Seeing Ling Chen throw the string of springs outside the arena, Yi Shuiyan’s eyes slightly condensed, and for some reason, he felt a troubling sensation in his heart. He thought he had already figured out all of Ling Chen’s cards, but now it seemed that there were still many things about Ling Chen that he didn’t know.
After removing the device, Ling Chen twisted his neck, rubbed his hands together, and moved his limbs. Free from the device, Ling Chen immediately felt a tremendous relief, as light as a swallow, and indescribably exhilarated.
"You’ve been on the offensive until now, now it’s my turn." Ling Chen’s mouth curled into a smile as he said to Yi Shuiyan: "I’m curious to see how long you can last against me."
"You think you can?" Yi Shuiyan looked disdainful, scoffing: "Skill isn’t something you can just talk about."
