"It doesn't sound like we have enough time," Chu Zihang said. "Five minutes isn't a short time to save this roller coaster!"
Angers glanced at his watch; at this hour, it was simply not functioning.
"We must come up with a rescue plan as soon as possible, otherwise everyone on this bus will die! If the roller coaster falls, it will also hit innocent pedestrians!"
Lu Mingfei was already trembling: "I said, it's unlikely, five minutes is not an easy time to save a whole carload of people, let alone this roller coaster. We might as well climb down now and have a chance to survive!"
Angers and Chu Zihang also remained silent; the time was indeed very tight.
But Lin Chen slowly unlocked his safety lock and stood up from his stationary seat.
"Double it!" Lin Chen said. "I'll help the principal. We'll extend the time by a hundred times. There are still six hundred seconds left!"
Lu Mingfei was completely dumbfounded: "It can double? How does that help?"
Angers looked at Lin Chen in surprise, but quickly understood what Lin Chen meant.
In Angers' understanding, Lin Chen's Word of Power is Mirror Eye, which copies the Word of Power of those around him.
At this moment, the domain was taken over by Lin Chen's Time Zero.
Angers looked at Lin Chen with amazement in his eyes.
He has lived for over 130 years, and his mastery of time can only be described as consummate.
However, the power of his words, which he was so proud of, was only half the power of Lin Chen's.
Chu Zihang immediately felt confident: "We have plenty of time!"
Xia Mi nodded, her pupils flashing rapidly.
At this moment, apart from Lu Mingfei, who was panicked and completely bewildered, everyone else was frantically thinking of a solution.
The roller coaster is now slowly moving forward, and some tourists' frozen faces are beginning to show expressions of fear.
Lu Mingfei stared at the group in a panic: "The principal's Word of Power is Time Zero, and the senior brother's Word of Power is Monarch Flame. The president can help the principal. Xia Mi, what is your Word of Power? Can it help us?"
Xia Mi stuck out her tongue: "I want to help too, but I really can't right now! Senior, have you considered that I haven't officially enrolled yet? Shouldn't you be protecting your junior at this time?"
Lu Mingfei shrank back: "Senior Lin Chen will protect you. Right now, I'm only thinking about how I should survive!"
Xia Mi subconsciously looked at Lin Chen, only to suddenly realize that Lin Chen was looking at him.
At this moment, Angers and Chu Zihang's minds were racing as they pondered how to resolve the situation before them.
But Lin Chen remained completely calm and did not consider the current situation at all. Instead, he kept looking at Xia Mi with great interest, as if this was the most important thing at the moment!
Xia Mi asked, "What are you looking at?"
Lin Chen subtly brushed the hair from the side of Xia Mi's face: "The wind is too strong, your hair is all messed up!"
"This is on a roller coaster, isn't it normal for hair to get blown onto your face?"
Lin Chen continued his actions: "Now we are in the realm of Time Zero, everything is under control."
Xia Mi was taken aback: "What does this mean?"
Lin Chen smiled slightly: "It's your hair, so you can decide what to do with it!"
Xia Mi remained silent as Lin Chen's fingers traced across her face, finally fixing her hair.
Lu Mingfei was almost in tears: "Please, everyone! This is not the time for flirting! We're about to die!"
But Lin Chen snapped his fingers lightly.
Everything around them froze again, this time including Angers Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei, all of them stopped in their tracks.
This is time zero within the realm of time zero, a freeze within a freeze!
The roller coaster slowed down even more, almost as if it had come to a complete stop.
If the previous time was slowed down by a hundred times, then this time is slowed down by four hundred times!
Lin Chen and Xia Mi remained aloof in this realm, and this was their time!
Xia Mi was surprised for a moment, but quickly calmed down.
Lin Chen looked at Xia Mi again: "Want to chat?"
197: A Conversation with Jormungandr! A Showdown!
Xia Mi looked at Lin Chen, her eyes as deep as the sea.
Lin Chen stood on the almost still roller coaster, with a steel track nearly 100 meters high beneath him.
This is an absolute place without heaven or earth, where everything is almost still.
Lin Chen and Xia Mi will not be disturbed by anyone!
“Your control over Time Zero is terrifying!” Xia Mi said quietly. “In your presence, Angers is like a mouse being toyed with by a cat!”
Lin Chen looked at Angers: "He's already very strong. He slowed down the speed by fifty times and maintained it for such a long time. He's over a hundred years old and still full of energy. He's the one who's truly close to the dragon race!"
Xia Mi lowered her head; she didn't want to waste her time on Angers.
"When did you find out who I am?" Xia Mi asked softly.
"I don't know either," Lin Chen said. "Maybe I sensed it the moment I saw you."
Xia Mi was surprised: "The first time you saw me? Was I really that obviously exposed?"
"No, not at all," Lin Chen said. "It's mainly due to external factors."
"External?"
"You are so beautiful. How can there be such a beautiful girl among humans?"
"...Girls with a high level of mixed race are also very beautiful!"
Lin Chen shook his head: "You're different. You're much more beautiful. It's not something that can be achieved simply by being mixed-race!"
"...Are you flirting with me?"
Lin Chen shrugged: "Actually, there's no need for that. You're mine now, no, to be precise, you're my dragon!"
Xia Mi's pupils contracted slightly, but she did not continue Lin Chen's words.
"Lin Chen!" Xia Mi said, "Since you know I'm a dragon, why don't you tell anyone!"
“If it were just an ordinary dragon, it wouldn’t matter if I said it, but you’re the Dragon King! The noble first-generation species, the king of the earth and mountains. Why would I tell anyone? A whole bunch of people would line up to kill you. What good would that do you?”
"You don't want to kill me?" Xia Mi asked in surprise.
"Obviously I don't want to!" Lin Chen said. "Do I look like the kind of person who would kill?"
"But don't all hybrids want to kill dragons? Like Angers!"
Lin Chen shook his head: "Your thinking is that of a dragon, and you don't understand humans that well. I can only say that, in some ways, humans are more terrifying than your dragon race!"
Xia Mi's expression became complicated.
Lin Chen explained: "Actually, you dragons only have so many ideas. Whether it's revenge or world domination, you can use some means at most. But people are different. The complexity and malice of the human heart are beyond common sense."
"The emergence of hybrids is an example. By offering young girls to dragons, countless girls' lives were sacrificed to create this species!"
"Similarly, the current hybrid races are the same. Countless families and organizations shout the slogan of slaying dragons, but they have no grudges against dragons. They just want to exterminate the dragon race, become the new dragon race, conquer the world, and satisfy their ambitions!"
“Angers is very strong, isn’t he? He’s over 130 years old and still insists on fighting on the battlefield against dragons. His goal is very simple: revenge. This can be said to be the purest goal among hybrids!”
"But I'm different. If any dragon tries to attack me, I will kill it without hesitation. But if any dragon appears gently by my side, I'm happy to be its friend."
Xia Mi looked into Lin Chen's eyes: "Are you talking about me?"
Lin Chen smiled and said, "That depends on whether you're willing to be friends with me!"
Xia Mi fell silent again.
"Is this a difficult question to answer?" Lin Chen asked.
Xia Mi looked up at the sky, seemingly deep in thought.
Lin Chen accompanied Xia Mi to look at the sky: "Do you still remember the day you asked me to come to your house?"
Xia Mi nodded: "You didn't go, you stood me up!"
What would happen if I went?
Xia Mi spoke sincerely: "You will die." She paused for a moment, then continued, "But this is just my opinion. You were able to kill Constantine and Norton, who were among the best of the first generation. I'm not sure they would be a match for you!"
"Looks like I made the right choice!" Lin Chen said with a smile. "If I had really gone, we might have actually had to fight."
Xia Mi suddenly looked at Lin Chen: "But how did you find the subway station? How did you know Fenrir was there!"
Lin Chen patted Xia Mi's head: "You invited me to your home, but you yourself said it was a trap. I don't want to fight with you. I really want to meet your family, so I brought a gift to visit your brother!"
Xia Mi's heart skipped a beat, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Yes, my brother... likes you very much."
Lin Chen smiled slightly: "I'll go see him again when I have a vacation later, and bring him some fun gifts!"
"Thank you," Xia Mi said.
Lin Chen smiled again: "...Have you noticed? You're starting to have human emotions."
Xia Mi was taken aback: "Human...emotions?"
“I don’t know if dragons have this kind of feeling, but it does between human men and women,” Lin Chen said. “Now I see it in you.”
