Wen Xishu knew that the second level would definitely be more difficult. But seeing how sharp this knife was, it seemed reasonable to take down the second level.
But this knife...
The words that described it made Wen Xishu very curious about the upcoming scene.
When Tong Ming’s figure disappeared into the television world, Wen Xishu could feel a barely perceptible, but indeed existing, sense of agitation disappear.
"Maybe I’m overthinking... but my feelings are rarely wrong."
"Maybe someone identified the item and entered the usage phase, which allowed certain things to settle down."
"In other words, if the item was never identified, something bad might happen?"
This theory had no basis, Wen Xishu just noticed that when someone entered the television, the chill and unease did decrease.
Tong Ming entered the television world.
Level, Lv2.
Aspasia and Wang Ying sat directly on the floor:
"So we were being watched by you guys just now... hahaha, how did I do? Was I brave enough?"
Zheng Zai nodded:
"Captain Wang, you were amazing. If the weapon in your hand wasn’t a blunt object like a table lamp, you definitely would have performed even better."
Wang Ying was pleased with this comment:
"Yes, if I had a knife like this kid’s, I could kill not just a hundred, but a thousand!"
Zheng Zai didn’t actually intend to flatter Wang Ying, but Wang Ying’s skill in cutting down a hundred foes was undeniable. However, Zheng Zai couldn’t help but wonder, why did Younger Brother Wen want a table lamp? There must be some deeper meaning to Younger Brother Wen’s every action...
So he was a bit worried about Wang Ying taking back the table lamp. Therefore, Zheng Zai thought it necessary to remind Wang Ying of the difficulty in killing enemies with it.
The eyes of the four quickly focused on the television.
...
...
Tong Ming was at a metro station.
This was also a densely populated place. After the apocalypse broke out, there would be some regular types that fear sunlight.
They weren’t afraid of light, just of sunlight.
These regular types were actually a bit stronger than those walking on the surface, but their weakness was also obvious, the fear of sunlight.
So in sewers, metro stations, they often gathered together.
The metro station was still operational, which was the creepiest thing discovered by those climbing the Slaughter Tower.
Whether it was an amusement park, a factory assembly line, or a metro station... as long as the facility wasn’t too severely damaged, they seemed almost alive... still showcasing their functions.
In the eyes of all the warriors who love climbing the Slaughter Tower... haunted houses were the most dangerous places.
Tong Ming walked in the metro station, the knife in his hand drawing a straight line on the ground.
He hummed a happy tune, looking indifferent.
He gave people the feeling of being a bit insane.
Zheng Zai always felt that there was a fierce aura hidden within Tong Ming.
[Lv2 begins, kill 100 targets to complete the task. You have two chances for external assistance.]
The prompt appeared, Tong Ming stopped, leaning against a pillar.
At this moment, he heard another voice:
"The train is about to arrive."
From afar came the sound of an approaching metro. Not long after, a metro full of passengers appeared. As it stopped, a swarm of monsters surged out.
Primary stage level 2 regular types, humanoid, characterized by a fear of sunlight, but moving twice as fast as level 1 regular types.
Seeing the speed of these monsters, Wang Ying frowned:
"Luckily this kid has a knife, otherwise with the speed of these regular types, without the Slaughter Tower sequence and panel, if there were too many, it would be very troublesome!"
Wang Ying thought that if he had this knife, he could easily handle Lv2.
But Tong Ming’s ability was hard to determine.
A twisted smile appeared on Tong Ming’s face:
"Kill! Kill kill kill! I’m going to kill you all! Hahahahaha!"
In his previous explorations of the Deceit Tower, he had always suppressed his killing instinct.
The reason he ended up in the mental asylum of the Bunker was because he loved "dead living things" from a young age.
The process of living things dying made him very happy. For example, classmates, for example, his sister.
Later, his parents sent him to a mental asylum, which was indeed also an institution under the Bunker Civil Affairs Bureau.
This type of severe patient was hopeless, a born wicked child. Unlike those who were persecuted by their parents and eventually lost their humanity—
Tong Ming received love from a young age, but he simply enjoyed watching "living things die slowly".
Killing in the Bunker was against the law, which he didn’t understand, but not in the Deceit Tower.
In his previous climbs, all his teammates died, which made Tong Ming very happy. Now, Tong Ming could also release that desire by killing enemies!
He let out a strange cry, as if he was the real monster. His small body surprisingly had beyond-human explosiveness!
Laughing wildly, his knife swiftly and easily pierced through several monsters!
These regular types had no intelligence but still had some instinctive reactions.
In terms of aura, they seemed more human, while Tong Ming was the one hunting them like a monster.
When Tong Ming charged forward with his knife, a few monsters even backed off.
Wang Ying was surprised that Tong Ming, without systematic training, had such good physical fitness.
Zheng Zai and Wen Xishu were also a bit surprised. Zheng Zai was astonished by the strong murderous aura on Tong Ming. Clearly a baby-faced teenager, yet he had a pathological obsession with slaughter.
But the biggest surprise was just beginning.
"Hahahahaha! Die die die! All of you die! Go to—hey?"
