Han Dong had been injured, and had even nearly suffered damage to his foundation, because he had refused to close his eyes in time and stubbornly peered into the most mysterious, deepest, and most extraordinary essence within Helen.
He had desperately wanted to see what kind of thing could make an enemy suffer Armor Break, be gravely wounded, or even die from a single glance.
At last,
Han Dong saw it clearly.
Beneath that twisted, utterly nauseating exterior was a living grimoire, presented to its observer in the form of an illustrated book, making everything even more vivid.
It could pour its most terrifying and dangerous contents into the target all at once, or launch dreadful nightmare attacks through reality manipulation formed by the grimoire.
"Cough, cough! No wonder just one look could cause so much damage. Miss Helen... you actually evolved from a grimoire."
Compared to Han Dong's shock,
Helen was even more astonished.
Because of her beauty, she was accustomed to receiving the gazes of others.
Helen had therefore become extremely sensitive. She knew exactly what kind of eyes people used when looking at her, how long they looked, and how deeply they were affected by her allure.
She could assess all this basic information with great accuracy.
Under normal circumstances,
once an enemy saw her "inner self," the effect would fully take hold after just 0.3 seconds.
Not to mention that she had already become a King, raising the threat of her inner self to another level. It would probably take only 0.1 seconds to fully take effect.
But just now,
Han Dong had peered into her inner self for a full three seconds.
During that extended observation, not only had Han Dong avoided mental damage, he had also suppressed the physical damage to the absolute minimum
