Chapter 90: Mysterious Tower Style Box Lunch

Wen Xishu knew that the second level would definitely be more difficult. But looking at the sharpness of this knife, it was reasonable to think it could take down the second level.

But this knife...

The wording of the description made Wen Xishu look forward to the subsequent scenes.

When Including Tong Ming's figure disappeared and entered the TV world, Wen Xishu could feel that a restlessness that was difficult to perceive but indeed existed had disappeared.

"Maybe I thought too much... but my feelings rarely make mistakes."

"Maybe it's someone identifying an item and entering the usage phase that can make certain things settle down."

"In other words, if you don't identify items, maybe bad things will happen?"

This statement had no origin, and Wen Xishu only discovered that when someone entered the TV, the chill and unease indeed decreased.

Including Tong Ming entered the TV world.

Level, lv2.

Aspasia and Wang Ying sat directly on the floor:

"So that's how we were watched by you guys just now... Hahaha, how was my performance? Can it be considered brave?"

Zheng Zai nodded:

"Captain Wang, you are very powerful, if the weapon in your hand wasn't a blunt object like a desk lamp, you would definitely have performed better."

Wang Ying was very receptive to this:

"Yes, if I were given a knife like the one in this kid's hand, let alone one hundred, I would have killed one thousand!"

Zheng Zai actually didn't want to blow Wang Ying, but Wang Ying's hundred-man-slaughter strength was undeniable. However, Zheng Zai was thinking, why did Brother Wen want the desk lamp? Brother Wen did everything with his own deep meaning...

So he was a bit worried that Wang Ying would want the desk lamp back. Therefore, Zheng Zai felt it was necessary to let Wang Ying recall the difficulty of this desk lamp killing enemies.

The gazes of the four people soon gathered on the TV.

……

……

The location where Including Tong Ming was located was a subway station.

This was also a place with dense crowds. After the apocalypse broke out, there would be some normal species that feared sunlight.

They weren't afraid of light, just feared sunlight.

These normal species were actually a bit stronger than those normal species walking on the ground, but their weaknesses were also very obvious, fearing sunlight.

So in the sewers, in the subway stations, they often gathered together.

The subway station was still working, which was also the most mysterious place discovered by people climbing the Slaughter Tower.

Whether it was an amusement park, a factory assembly line, or a subway station... as long as the facilities weren't too severely damaged, they seemed to still have life... and would display their functions.

In the eyes of all the soldiers who loved to climb the Slaughter Tower... places like haunted houses were the most dangerous.

Including Tong Ming walked in the subway station, the knife in his hand drew a straight scratch on the ground.

He hummed a happy tune, looking very indifferent.

The feeling he gave people was a bit crazy.

Zheng Zai always felt that there was a fierce energy hidden in Including Tong Ming.

【lv2 started, kill 100 targets to complete the mission. You have two chances for outside help.】

The prompt appeared, Including Tong Ming stopped his pace, leaning against a pillar.

At this time, he also heard another sound:

"The train is about to arrive."

The sound of the subway speeding came from afar. Not long after, a subway full of passengers appeared. After this subway stopped steadily, a large number of monsters poured out.

Primary level two normal species, human form, characteristics, fear of sunlight, but action is twice as fast as level one normal species.

Seeing the speed of these monsters, Wang Ying frowned:

"It's fortunate that this kid has a knife, otherwise, normal species of this speed, without Slaughter Tower sequences and Slaughter Tower panels, if there were too many, it would also be very troublesome!"

Wang Ying believed that if he had this knife, he could easily deal with lv2.

But Including Tong Ming's strength was hard to say.

A somewhat obsessed smile bloomed on Including Tong Ming's face:

"Kill! Kill kill kill kill! I want to kill you all! Hahahahahaha!"

In the previous few Mysterious Tower explorations, he had always suppressed his characteristic of bloodthirst.

The reason he entered the psychiatric hospital in the bunker was because he had liked "dead living things" since he was a child.

The process of living things dying made him feel very happy. For example, classmates, for example, his younger sister.

Later he was sent to a psychiatric hospital by his parents. The psychiatric hospital there could also be considered an institution under the bunker's political bureau.

This kind of bad patient couldn't be cured at all, the evil child was born. Unlike those who were persecuted by their parents and eventually slowly lost their humanity—

Including Tong Ming had possessed love since he was a child, but internally he just liked to see the process of "living things slowly dying."

Killing people in the bunker was against the law, which he didn't understand, but it wouldn't be in the Mysterious Tower.

In the previous few tower climbs, his teammates all died, which made Including Tong Ming very happy. Now, Including Tong Ming could also release that desire by killing enemies himself!

He made a strange cry, as if he were the monster, the small body actually had explosive power beyond ordinary people!

In the laughter, his knife passed through several monsters easily at a fast speed!

Those normal species had no wisdom, but could also have some instinctive reactions.

In terms of momentum, they seemed to be the humans, and Including Tong Ming was the monster hunting them.

When Including Tong Ming came holding the knife, a few monsters even retreated.

Wang Ying didn't expect that Including Tong Ming hadn't received systematic training, but his physical fitness was so good.

Zheng Zai and Wen Xishu were also a bit surprised. Zheng Zai was surprised that there was such a big murderous aura on Including Tong Ming. Clearly a teenager with a baby face, but he had a pathological obsession with killing.

But a bigger surprise, only just began at this moment.

"Hahahahaha! Die die die! All die for me! All go—eh?"

A normal species that had been cut by Including Tong Ming suddenly bit Including Tong Ming's neck from behind.

Sharp teeth pierced Including Tong Ming's skin and pierced into Including Tong Ming's blood vessels.

The splashing blood made Including Tong Ming furious, he exploded with power beyond himself, actually pulling that normal species over with one hand, his eyes full of incomprehension.

Because this normal species should have died.

These normal species mostly had broken bodies because they hadn't eaten living things for too long.

But this normal species in front of him actually looked healthier than other normal species.

Including Tong Ming angrily stepped on the head of the normal species. When the other party let out a wail and was dying, Including Tong Ming shouted, waved his knife to force back other normal species, and then stabbed down with one knife, piercing the head of the normal species under his feet.

But a bizarre scene appeared. As the knife pierced into the head of the normal species, the normal species not only didn't die...

Instead, the broken flesh on its body began to recover further. It had strength again and suddenly grabbed Including Tong Ming's calf.

At this time, Including Tong Ming also began to realize something was wrong.

This knife... had a problem!

The normal species around didn't have wisdom and didn't realize that this knife couldn't kill them.

But their desire for flesh and blood still made them pounce over one by one.

Including Tong Ming instinctively waved the knife. This knife should have been able to make several monsters be cut at the waist or beheaded...

But these monsters just became "healthier."

Finally, another normal species bit Including Tong Ming's ear...

The normal species under his feet also began to tear the flesh on Including Tong Ming's calf.

Waist, shoulders, hair, soon more and more normal species pounced on Including Tong Ming.

Looking from outside the TV, Including Tong Ming could no longer be seen, only normal species could be seen lying on him like flies surrounding rotten meat.

And in the train, there were still constant normal species rushing over.

"Save me! Save me!"

This was Including Tong Ming's request for help. In a state of blurred consciousness, he initiated outside help.

Wang Ying said:

"Go all the way... there's no way to save this."

Aspasia thought so too. In fact, when the first normal species bit Including Tong Ming's neck and brought out blood, she was surprised that this teenager didn't die immediately...

If Including Tong Ming lived, maybe he would be a bloodthirsty type, a good hand at killing enemies in the Slaughter Tower. If cultivated, he would be a good seedling.

Including Tong Ming hadn't died yet, he was in a dying state, his flesh was being eaten, his bones were exposed, his head was even bitten off by a quarter. For the normal species, this seemed to be a soup-filled bun rich in juice, but the normal species that bit off a part of Including Tong Ming's head had its throat crushed by the amazing power Including Tong Ming exploded.

But in this situation where an ordinary person would surely die, the evil child could still explode with the last vitality, stand up in a posture of being covered in blood and rotten meat:

"Save me! Save me! I don't want to die!"

Truly amazing initial combat power.

Wen Xishu felt that Including Tong Ming was indeed the innate holy body for climbing the Slaughter Tower. This kind of situation where the head wasn't even complete but he could still fight, he had only seen in comics.

Truly innate divine power and terrifying vitality.

He knew how to save Including Tong Ming. In fact, with Including Tong Ming's brain, he should have thought of how to do it, but at this time, Including Tong Ming was already confused.

And after Wen Xishu weighed the pros and cons—he felt that the value of this knife couldn't compare to the drawbacks brought by this kind of person.

Because Including Tong Ming under extreme emotions started to float bullet screens. And Wen Xishu could see the bullet screens across the TV.

【You bastards! Save me quickly! Save me! Save me!】

Sorry, the local psychiatric patient is too impolite, I don't want to save him.

Wen Xishu didn't open his mouth.

In this situation, actually, just committing suicide would be fine, using that knife to self-harm.

Yes, the notes of this knife, only a few words appeared in Wen Xishu's eyes—

Redemption, Life, Not Killing, Sharp.

This also made Wen Xishu immediately think that this was a knife of redemption. The characteristic of this knife was extreme sharpness, able to easily cut open many hard objects. But facing living things, it was a knife of treatment and healing.

Although it couldn't achieve the miracle of bringing the dead back to life like Tenseiga in Inuyasha, this knife was indeed a knife of not killing, a knife of treatment.

Wen Xishu still wanted this knife quite a bit, a knife that slashed at teammates, but considering that only one item could be taken out of the Three Towers... Wen Xishu felt that there must be better items, the reason was simple, because this knife appeared in the "no patient" room.

And the combat power Including Tong Ming displayed was too powerful. Without Slaughter Tower attributes, this person was simply a war god template.

And compared to this knife, he preferred to see the scene in front of him, the evil child holding a knife completely contrary to his nature, not saving himself even until death...

Interesting and ironic.

Including Tong Ming's appearance made Wen Xishu feel some of fate's uncanny workmanship. The knife of life brought, and the holder who liked death, were in conflict.

Including Tong Ming died.

Without any prompt, the TV screen suddenly flickered a few times, turned into a piece of snowflake, and finally, the screen went black.

Zheng Zai said with lingering fear:

"That child... just died like that?"

Zheng Zai didn't like Including Tong Ming, but he never thought Including Tong Ming would die.

Aspasia was also a bit afraid:

"So... so in this museum, what item is reliable? Even if it's a weapon... it might hinder us!"

Wang Ying was silent.

What surprised him was the unreasonable strength Including Tong Ming displayed. But geniuses who existed in reality did exist.

For example, that Xun Hui, it is said that before Xun Hui entered the Slaughter Tower, he had strength and speed that ordinary people couldn't reach. His appetite was even more amazing.

Now it seems, Including Tong Ming was also a freak.

But such a person... died.

Wen Xishu pretended to sigh:

"This is the Mysterious Tower, no matter what kind of person you are, no matter how good your previous record is, and no matter how amazing your talent is..."

"But in the Mysterious Tower, you might just die suddenly. The geniuses buried here are countless."

No matter what kind of trajectory your life had before, no matter how many people expected you to return alive, feeling that you would write what kind of legend...

In the Mysterious Tower, you might just die suddenly. This is also why Albert didn't explore the Mysterious Tower.

"So everyone, let's continue to identify items, maybe we are luckier than him?"

Wen Xishu was actually very calm in his heart. Dying is just dying. Although in his expectation, Including Tong Ming's style was unique, it would be normal for him to die after Wang Ying and Aspasia...

But there were too many people in the Mysterious Tower who thought they were protagonists but stopped abruptly, so he didn't care.

Wen Xishu greeted Zheng Zai:

"Let's go, we should go to 4-7."

Aspasia and Wang Ying also looked at each other, Aspasia said:

"If even weapons can't be trusted... then how should we choose?"

Wang Ying still had his own judgment:

"If you were the designer of these items, would you deliberately design them repeatedly?"

"A knife is this function, other knives definitely won't be. I think we should still first find those that possess the ability to kill monsters."

Aspasia said again:

"But... but the next time is lv3, right? Or Zheng Zai and the others start the next link first, and we are lv4?"

"Monsters will gradually become stronger, right? Can we really find weapons that can restrain these monsters?"

Wang Ying also had no confidence. Including Tong Ming's death cast a layer of fear in his heart.

There was a feeling that this might really be his last time climbing the tower.

But he couldn't say these things out. He just said softly:

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Have you discovered these levels? Actually, although the monster strength is increasing, it's different from the Slaughter Tower in reality. These monsters' attacks are simulating reality... but you found that their routes have rules, they are designed."

"Their behavior patterns are more single, otherwise even one hundred primary level one normal species would be quite tricky."

"Let's continue looking, there must be something that can let us survive."

"Let's go, let's go to 4-8 and take a look."

Aspasia nodded. Now the only one she could rely on was Wang Ying.

……

……

Compared to the somewhat oppressive 4-8, the 4-7 where Wen Xishu and Zheng Zai were located was quite relaxed and happy.

Wen Xishu played with this item, his mood was very good. He knew that this thing might be able to help them survive in the lv3 level.

Only Zheng Zai hadn't seen this thing. Wen Xishu said:

"You shouldn't be sad because of Including Tong Ming's death, right?"

"No, just didn't expect... he was the first to die."

"That's good, nothing to be surprised about. Look at last time, we met in the rest area, except for us two, everyone was a villain. But those who should die also died."

Zheng Zai nodded:

"Brother Wen, you seem to be in a good mood?"

"Yes, I feel that this thing will most likely help us get through lv3. It could also be lv2, after all, Including Tong Ming died at lv2, he hadn't passed yet."

Wen Xishu showed the item to Zheng Zai, Zheng Zai took it in his hand and held it with both hands.

It was unexpectedly comfortable to hold.

"But this thing... not sharp, it looks even worse than a desk lamp, is this a decoration? What is this thing called? I have never seen it, and I can't imagine how to use it to kill enemies."

Wen Xishu said:

"This thing is called a controller."
