Wen Xishu's Game

This was, of course, a very dangerous act.

Wen Xishu knew this, but he observed very carefully.

If Sita hadn't died, if he hadn't carried that animal scent, Zheng Zai could likely have restrained himself.

Therefore, after Zheng Zai's desires were partially satisfied at this moment, that restraint should have become even stronger.

He believed that Zheng Zai, after alleviating his bloodlust, would absolutely be able to regain control of his body.

So, at this time, Wen Xishu chose to gain some favorability.

Wen Xishu succeeded. In Zheng Zai's eyes, he was practically an angel. Ever since his father was arrested, this world hadn't made him feel kindness in a very, very long time.

However, in the eyes of the others, this scene was terrifying.

On Park Mihee's arm, the jade-like hand that had once pleased countless upper-class individuals... goosebumps even appeared.

A man-eating monster, and a pervert who greeted the monster with a smile and even actively fed it meat.

Before, Park Mihee thought Wen Xishu's past was fabricated and that he wasn't mentally unstable. But now, in her eyes, Wen Xishu was more than just a little bit problematic.

Kane was also breaking out in a cold sweat. Pretending to be decorated with grand accusations was essentially just using a name to package oneself; that wasn't something a strong person would do.

Now, Wen Xishu gave him the feeling of a strong person.

A mad, strong person.

This scene didn't last long, because Zheng Zai had already stood up. He said to Wen Xishu:

"I... I'm sorry for letting you see me like this. I... I'm full now. Thank you, thank you. I feel much better now, better than before, and I think I can help you."

He said thank you twice.

Wen Xishu just waved his hand. After much thought, Wen Xishu decided to continue killing people.

There were a total of four rooms, and according to the mission description, there should be four items that needed purification. Four rooms should also correspond to four different item-finding mechanisms.

However, even so, Wen Xishu didn't change his original plan—to slaughter all his teammates.

"I'll see how you all perform. If it's good enough, it's not impossible for you to survive, but it has to be good enough," he muttered inwardly.

In a place where he couldn't even guarantee his own survival, Wen Xishu didn't mind getting his hands dirty.

He thought about who to kill first.

"Do you guys want to come over? I think we can analyze some things."

The others were still quite bewildered.

Kane, Mendemuer, Zheng Zai, and Park Mihee only knew that for some reason, Sita had been killed by a monster a moment ago.

But in such a short time, had Wen Xishu already analyzed some clues?

Park Mihee suppressed the fear she felt towards Wen Xishu and spoke as kindly and calmly as possible:

"What just happened? What clues did you find?"

Wen Xishu looked at the music box above. It was placed on a bookshelf.

The table was three meters high, and the bookshelf was even higher.

But it wouldn't be difficult for everyone to climb up.

"I'll point out a few things, and I believe you know them too, Captain, right?"

"First, the place we entered has an item that needs to be purified, and we have the ability to purify."

"I don't know if everyone remembers, but during the first tower climb, before our accounts were registered, we would have a temporary identity when going to the mission area. For example, I played a rescuer who had to save a little girl."

"After registering the account, the mechanism actually hasn't changed. Our entry method is still playing someone, but we have our own IDs."

"This time, we are playing Exorcists, performing exorcisms in houses."

"Most likely, that falling Parrot was some kind of evil spirit. It released a curse on an item."

"Purifying the curse will attract the monster's attention. If it's correct, it will damage the monster; if it's wrong, you will be killed by the monster."

"So, how to accurately find that item is what we need to do."

"Before the monster appears, each of us will hear a prompt in our minds. Based on the woman's clothing and that sickening sound..."

"Some unspeakable sins have occurred in this room. Including, but not limited to... assault."

"Also, the monster's eyesight isn't very good. This monster, at least in this room, is very easy to hide from. If I trigger the monster, I will die, but you won't. You'll have enough time to hide."

"So, theoretically, we still have five chances."

"Oh, the monster disappears when the music box stops singing. I think the music box is very suspicious. At least, as it stands, the music box hidden on top of the bookshelf, both its presence earlier..."

"And the difficulty of reaching its location in this oversized room—it seems like the pollutant that can be purified."

"I believe that perhaps purifying the music box will allow us to find one item, and then two people can leave alive."

Park Mihee seemed to understand why Wen Xishu had garnered attention from the upper echelons. He had grasped so many clues just by witnessing the monster kill someone once.

But a problem arose.

Everyone, including Kane, admitted that Wen Xishu's analysis was very reasonable. They felt that things should be this way.

But at this moment, no one stepped forward to say:

"I will purify the music box."

Wen Xishu had known this for a long time.

No matter how reasonable the argument, no one was willing to be the guinea pig.

What if he was wrong?

What if Wen Xishu's analysis was incorrect, and the contaminant wasn't the music box, then whoever went to purify it would surely die.

And so, everyone fell silent.

Wen Xishu loved this round. Although he was also in danger, the madness in his bones made him find it very interesting:

"We should know that the doors outside are constantly approaching. Hey, if we just stand here doing nothing, we'll all die. Once the doors collide, three types of monsters with different mechanisms will come to kill us."

"I still have some confidence in my analytical abilities. Of course, you are all very intelligent. If you successfully find the contaminant, you don't need to take me with you; you can let me help the remaining two teammates."

"But that's only if I don't open the box. But looking around now, it seems none of you have any intention of opening it. Tsk tsk, then I guess I'll have to take action."

"If I open the box, then I will take myself and Mr. Zheng Zai with me."

"I believe you are all very smart and can definitely survive without me."

Kane, Mendemuer, and Park Mihee all felt a jolt.

They couldn't possibly analyze these clues in a single round. Their analytical abilities were on completely different levels. It could be said that if Wen Xishu left, they were certainly doomed.

And if Wen Xishu was wrong... well, they would only live a little longer.

They couldn't let Wen Xishu open the box. But if Wen Xishu wouldn't do it? Who would? After all, purifying the box carried its own risks.

Seeing everyone wanting to act but unable to take the first step, Wen Xishu was delighted.
