In fact.

The cement sculpture, or rather the victim's remains, obviously wouldn't come out to acknowledge him.

They're professionals at playing dead!

Wang Wen didn't want to resort to the same old tactics to threaten people again.

Walking the same road twice is not his style.

Ren Ruanruan isn't around, so I can't skip the level.

Fortunately, this was a test rather than an actual tower climb, and with less than twenty hours left, he didn't plan to climb very high.

I'm interested in testing whether I can find a way to pass these levels that have no progress.

So he touched the [Oath Scepter] and swore, "Let the thoughts or souls buried here come out and chat."

The Scepter trembled.

The energy rumbled away.

A thunderous sound erupted around Wang Wen's body, frightening everyone into fleeing. Only the newbie Cheng Queyi stood motionless against the howling wind, her face filled with worry.

Zhu Xingguo advised her, "Master is currently channeling his energy; we'd better keep our distance or we might get hurt."

Cheng Queyi confusion, "What skill?"

Before he could finish speaking...

Five swaying figures drifted out of the cemetery.

Wang Wen almost coughed up blood when she saw it.

The figure pleaded, "Great Immortal, please spare us!"

Wang Wen felt her energy levels decrease by almost 10%.

He said calmly, "It could have been, but it's not possible now."

The figure asked in shock, "Why?"

Wang Wen said, "You were all still here, so why did you ignore me at first and make me take action?"

The figure was almost crying, "Brother, can't you be reasonable? We're already dead! Dead!!"

Wang Wen shook her head. "I don't care. Unless you give me a progress report, this matter won't get through."

Watching Wang Wen and the swaying figure calmly chatting behind her, Cheng Queyi felt completely numb.

The five figures quickly discussed something in mid-air.

It's as if they've made a decision.

It floated up and down, saying to Wang Wen, "So, at least Lin Kaihe is still alive, you can..."

"He's no good," Wang Wen interrupted the figure directly. "I already said that last time."

The figure seemed to want to cry again.

After drifting aimlessly for a while, he spoke again, "There's also Liang Xiaobin's driver, he was involved too..."

"That won't do either." Wang Wen recalled, "They drove me around several times, after all."

The figure trembled.

One of them suddenly disappeared with a "whoosh" sound, emitting smoke.

Wang Wen was puzzled.

The remaining four figures looked at each other in astonishment.

Pointing at Wang Wen, she wailed, "You actually! You angered the second son to death! No, you angered him to death!!"

Wang Wen, both amused and exasperated, asked suspiciously, "You're kidding, right? You guys can die again?"

A hot-tempered man in the shadows rolled up his sleeves and shouted angrily, "I can't take it anymore! I have dignity too! I'm going to fight him to the death! Who's with me?!"

Wang Wen touched the Scepter and brought back the vanished "oath".

The figure who had been "sworn back" was visibly shaken, touching himself repeatedly with a bewildered expression on his face, looking to his companion for answers.

His companion was racking his brains but couldn't come up with an explanation.

Did he just die?

He's clearly dead.

Is it true that he came back from the dead?

It did not come back to life.

For the first time, everyone felt that it was a mistake for them to remain in this world with resentment.

A huge mistake!

And what Wang Wen said next intensified this feeling even more.

I sensed that another 10% of my energy had disappeared.

Wang Wen was very sad.

So he vented his anger on the figure. "Watch closely, if you don't give us the progress, I'll make you wish you were dead!"

The crowd was both surprised and terrified.

They huddled together, curled up in a ball.

Even the student who had rolled up his sleeves earlier fell silent.

They decided to confront violence with silence.

Seeing this scene...

Wang Wen sighed helplessly, "Speaking of which, you're also victims. I really didn't want to lay a hand on you, so why are you always so stubborn and unwilling to cooperate?"

The figure with rolled-up sleeves sneered, "What can you do to me if I refuse to cooperate? Go ahead and kill me if you dare!"

"I went through so much trouble to get you out of here, wouldn't it be a huge loss to just kill you all like this?" Wang Wen said regretfully, reaching out her hand.

He attempted to unleash the extraordinary skill [Illusory Realm] on the figure with rolled-up sleeves.

Skill used successfully.

The figure with rolled-up sleeves immediately froze in place.

I've mentioned this before.

The Illusory Realm is best at evoking and reshaping the most repulsive, fearful, and unwanted memories of the target.

Those Tower Climber are in a better position.

They were mentally prepared and most had trained their mental strength.

They have some degree of resistance to the Illusory Realm.

How would the local natives know these things?

The Illusory Realm lasted only a few seconds.

The figure with rolled-up sleeves immediately broke down.

The swaying body flickered between light and shadow.

His face was vividly covered with tears and snot.

His mouth was wide open, as if he were suffocating, unable to make a sound or breathe.

A short while later.

With a "whoosh," it turned into smoke and disappeared.

Have to!

Another one killed.

Wang Wen felt heartbroken seeing that only 50% of her energy remained, and couldn't bear to burn any more energy to save the person.

Pointing to the vanishing plume of smoke, he threatened the remaining four figures, "Did you see that? How much pain he was in before he died? Don't you want to experience his pain together? You all know that even if he's gone, I can bring him back, right? You can experience that wonderful feeling repeatedly to your heart's content..."

Before he could finish speaking...

The four figures bowed deeply, saying, "Master, there's no need for further explanation. Just tell us what you need, and we'll do it all!"

Wang Wen looked at her four well-behaved and obedient children.

I am satisfied with the outcome of my communication.

Indeed, if everyone gives a little love, the world will become a better place!

He turned around and smiled at the stunned Cheng Queyi and the others, "Let's go!"

We tested it last time; the progress can be changed according to the will of these victims.

This time, Wang Wen simply used these figures as progress testers.

Go out and randomly find a stranger to see if you can turn them into progress.

It worked after one try.

Then things become very simple.

Wang Wen said to Cheng Queyi and the other two, who hadn't stopped talking the whole way, "Alright, let's start our chivalrous deeds now!"

Having grown accustomed to Wang Wen's behavior patterns, Zhu Xingguo cooperatively asked, "Master, what are you planning to do?"

Wang Wen nodded.

Pointing to a bald man at a distant bus stop who was forcibly pushing his way through the crowd to board a bus, he said, "Seeing injustice, one should draw one's sword to help!"

He commanded the four shadows, "All generals, listen to my order: turn that man into progress!"

The four shadows obediently floated over and began to unleash their powers around the bald man.

His body trembled from holding his breath, his figure flickering between light and shadow.

It is clear that getting them to change the schedule is an extremely difficult task.

But they still actively and proactively cooperated.

I suppose in their minds, if they could improve the system to the point of "death," it would be a kind of relief.

Of course.

Death is just something to look forward to.

Whether the wish can be fulfilled depends on whether that Demon master will let go.

Therefore, the four shadows worked very hard.

Before long, a "pop" sound appeared on the bald man's head, showing a progress point of 0.1.

Logically speaking, they could blame their death on any unrelated person.

Looking at it this way, it does fit the logic of vengeful ghosts in most horror movies who act irrationally.

After all, according to the law of influence, perhaps it was because this bald man cut in line for Liang Xiaobin and the others one day, causing Liang Xiaobin to be unhappy, and through a series of coincidences, this eventually implicated these five victims?

kindness.

It makes perfect sense!

Cutting in line, damn it.

Very reasonable!

Wang Wen nodded to Zhu Xingguo, indicating to her good disciple, "Go catch up on the progress."
