Xun Hui at this moment looked towards Wen Xishu and said:
"Wenxun."
Wen Xishu responded:
"Here, senior, please speak."
Xun Hui did not immediately begin to speak, but furrowed his brows for quite a while before saying:
"Although this is a test for me, and you all are prepared to face death, I will ensure your safety as much as possible."
"There are some trite topics that still need to be mentioned."
"The Slaughter Tower and the Deceit Tower are two completely different towers. The Slaughter Tower appears outside the scenarios."
"The Deceit Tower often appears within a certain scenario, like inside a building, mansion, hospital, school, or some special house."
"The Slaughter Tower, on the other hand, is somewhat similar to the Desire Tower; it appears outside of specific scenarios, such as on a city street, which is the most common starting point."
"Everyone must carefully sense and identify... Some tall buildings might be the original scenarios of a certain area of the Deceit Tower. Inside, there are many elite or leader-level beings."
"You must be very cautious about entering, especially you Wenxun, you are too aggressive."
Aggressive... Does that have something to do with Wenxun? Yue Yun started to associate thoughts again.
Wen Xishu actually paid attention to everyone’s every move, and he felt that he might expose his identity this time.
"Remember, the Slaughter Tower and the Deceit Tower are different. To give an example, in the Deceit Tower, you might solve puzzles to get certain opportunities that change everything."
"Not in the Slaughter Tower. Although there are strange rules in the special scenarios of the Slaughter Tower, all rules are meant to be life-threatening."
"It’s hard to say which is more difficult between the Slaughter Tower and the Deceit Tower, but we rarely enter certain areas while exploring the Slaughter Tower."
Wen Xishu thought of a question:
"Assuming there is a building housing seven elite species, is there a way to kill them without entering the building?"
Xun Hui responded:
"Of course, just destroy the building. Every scenario in the Slaughter Tower can be destroyed. The Slaughter Tower is the most realistic battlefield."
Wen Xishu understood.
The Deceit Tower scenarios require you to follow rules and solve puzzles. In the Slaughter Tower, you can forcibly dismantle scenes, forcing the game master to reveal themselves.
But the premise of doing that is having the strength.
Xun Hui began to talk about the most important point:
"Regarding the levels of the Slaughter Tower, I have one more thing to say. Higher levels don’t necessarily mean stronger monsters."
"Unlucky individuals can encounter a 100th-floor boss on the first floor, so beware of wandering into the wrong areas."
"Just because you’re on the first floor of the Slaughter Tower does not mean you won’t encounter danger if you wander into certain scenes."
"The level primarily affects the following aspects."
"The lower the level, the less likely you are to come across elite leaders or dominators. Below the 25th floor, no area is assigned to dominators. However, if you insist on venturing to distant areas... naturally, you can reach dominator locations too."
"Below the 90th floor, the Slaughter Tower has no area restrictions."
"Correspondingly, the lower the level, the weaker the monsters around your starting point."
"At the same time, your presence becomes less noticeable to strong enemies. In other words, weaker monsters are more likely to notice you. But conversely, weaker monsters have lower attributes, making it easier for you to hide."
"Learning to sneak and using level conditions to conceal yourself is a necessary survival skill."
"If you must fight, make sure that the fight does not affect nearby scenes. Typically, as long as your fighting doesn’t spill over into certain scenes, the leaders inside won’t care about you."
"If the level is quite low, like on the third or fifth floor, even if you are fighting, the noise you create won’t disturb those behemoths."
"But that doesn’t mean they will absolutely not be disturbed. If you step into their territory proactively, they will still be alarmed."
"Territories with elites and leaders often have visible murderous intent, like black mist. If you see a building surrounded by such mist, all I can say is three words—Do, not, enter."
"But does the absence of such aura mean the building is absolutely safe? Not necessarily."
It was rare for Xun Hui to speak so much; his cold demeanor looked a bit gentler at this moment:
"In summary, levels affect our starting position and surrounding monsters, but the Desire Tower and the Deceit Tower should have area restrictions, while the Slaughter Tower doesn’t."
"So remember one thing, do not move too far from the starting position. You might end up in more challenging areas."
Finally, Xun Hui looked at Wen Xishu alone:
"Is there anything you don’t understand that you want to ask?"
Wen Xishu shook his head:
"That’s all, Senior Xun. Shall we climb the tower now?"
Although Xun Hui’s advice was directed at everyone, it was clear to Nissen and the others that Xun Hui seemed particularly concerned about Wen Xishu.
Xun Hui nodded:
"Then let’s begin, everyone. See you at the Slaughter Tower."
Xun Hui activated the login device.
Yue Yun said:
"Wenxun, Nissen, Xiaojin, we can’t be deadweights."
Nissen nodded:
"Bro, I’ll keep trying. If monsters appear, let me take the front line."
Xiaojin happily said:
"Wow, Brother Nissen, Brother Yun, you said exactly what I wanted to say!"
Wen Xishu nodded and activated the login device.
In Wen Xishu’s plan, they would reach the 52nd floor this time. This level wouldn’t likely intersect with the upgraded Tang Rui, Jack and Jennifer on the 21st floor, or the An Family Brothers who escaped Jicheng and fled to Longxia...
It’s improbable to encounter them.
Wen Xishu didn’t plan to recruit during this mission. He didn’t think it would even be possible to have any contact.
This wouldn’t be a journey of encounters.
But because of what he carried, his first trip to the Slaughter Tower was much more eventful than he expected.
