Wen Xishu didn’t take this person lightly:
"I’ll still scold you tomorrow. Get lost, don’t dirty my door."
The monster had no choice but to leave.
Wen Xishu also started to feel the lingering fear.
Yes, this was only the second day, and according to the rules from the TV—the monster would be even stronger the second night. What about the third and fourth nights?
And the final seventh night?
"If I had climbed the tower in the normal order, one level at a time to the forty-second floor, my Anti-Magic Value should be very high, maybe the effect of the seventh night would resemble that of the second night."
"But the current situation is... I chose minimalism, which is like challenging the forty-second level on the first level, the actual difficulty is probably much scarier compared to a normal forty-second level challenge... Maybe this feels like the sixty or seventy levels, or even higher."
Wen Xishu shook his head:
"I must finish this quickly..."
But just at that moment, Wen Xishu couldn’t help but ponder a question, even if he really found humans, could he endure seven days?
With the intensity of this mental invasion, by the sixth or fifth day... would the two people in the room possibly go insane or collapse?
"Is this really the correct solution for this level?"
Wen Xishu couldn’t help but think this, but soon shook his head and denied these thoughts.
"I can’t be influenced by the fear and oddities here, I can’t waver from my initial thoughts because of this."
Wen Xishu looked at the three people in the room. Besides Mariko, the other two looked at Wen Xishu with a hopeful gaze.
Takahashi Fumihiko and Mishin Hanzo seemed to understand the immense pressure Wen Xishu was under tonight.
The two were eagerly anticipating, hoping Wen Xishu’s next visitor would deliver a significant mental impact on him.
Causing Wen Xishu to make a mistake.
So far, Takahashi Fumihiko was actually very surprised internally.
This person barely made any mistakes at all, he could even anticipate some potential future mistakes and preemptively block them.
For example, having everyone acknowledge—that the messages on the TV could be false.
Wen Xishu also realized the two were waiting for him to make a mistake.
[Your prayer failed, but the chance of success for the next prayer has increased.]
Wen Xishu continued to [pray.]
At this moment, a new prompt appeared in Wen Xishu’s mind—
[Prayer successful.]
Just then, a knock on the door was heard.
Wen Xishu was instantly elated. Both Mishin and Takahashi Fumihiko felt a bit of unease.
It seemed this time the "visitor" was finally different from the previous ones.
They could clearly sense that Wen Xishu’s attitude had changed dramatically.
The emotional fluctuation was something unseen before.
"Finally... finally, I got out! This maze was too terrifying."
Outside the door was a man, a somewhat hunched man, he was stooped over, his voice carried a slight sob and hoarseness.
"Sorry... I’ve been a bit out of it... I’ve been wandering in the maze these days!"
"I feared every corner! I thought I had to start running away again, but unexpectedly, this corner led to a room! A room!"
The hunched man’s lips were trembling with excitement.
Wen Xishu felt the same internal excitement, at this moment, he even took out his gun, he could finally be at ease.
Next, he just needed to open the door, welcome the hunched man in, and then Wen Xishu could shoot the three "occupants" in the room.
Wen Xishu realized he had to control his emotions, not letting the three monsters inside sense anything unusual.
He slightly turned to ensure he could see part of the room while also observing the visitor through the peephole.
The hunched man whispered:
"Is... is the room full? Hello, is anyone there?"
He received no response, as if the room was empty?
If no one was there, he naturally couldn’t get in, at this moment the hunched man’s tone even carried a trace of despair.
Takahashi Fumihiko stood up.
His expression was rarely so tense.
If a real person came into the room, Takahashi Fumihiko knew very well what it meant.
He couldn’t forcefully end the incubation period, but as a top student, he somewhat understood the room owner’s awareness of their monstrosity.
And understood the mechanism that prevented them from immediately turning into monsters.
So at that moment, Takahashi Fumihiko displayed a determined will to kill the visitor.
His action also enlightened Mashin Hanzo, who then reacted.
Only Mariko remained unmoved. Perhaps her romantic mind truly believed she was different from the others.
The visitor’s tone outside the door, along with the prayer success prompt, and the actions of Mishin and Takahashi...
All indicated this visitor might change Wen Xishu’s current predicament.
Wen Xishu pulled out his gun:
"Sit down, who allowed you to stand up? Didn’t I say you need to report before acting?"
"I can kill you right now, and you all know I can do it."
Meanwhile, Wen Xishu tried to turn the doorknob.
This was an exhilarating moment, but Wen Xishu suddenly sensed something was off.
The more intense the moment, the sharper Wen Xishu’s observation became.
He surprisingly caught a glimpse, as Takahashi Fumihiko lowered his head, of a glimmer of cunning in his eyes behind his glasses.
This was a trap!
Wen Xishu turned back abruptly, looking through the peephole.
As he gently turned the doorknob, he saw a creepy scene, the hunch on the hunched man’s back started twisting and writhing.
