"Ding dong! Second basent level reached!"
This is a dark world—"Gas World", where one would suffocate and die upon exiting.
A mist-like substance floated in through the elevator doors.
Because this thing was floating in the air and had a high power level, Wang Hao didn’t think to use the Screaming Chicken against it for the mont.
"I’ll endure it for now!"
By now, there were already four passengers in the elevator, completely full!
Any more, and the elevator would be overloaded, and one would have to die!
...
"Ding dong! Third basent level reached!"
Just like in the first loop, the outside world emitted a huge tallic noise as if scraping across the floor.
Wang Hao felt tense, considering it was the weird entity that had killed him once before.
At this mont, he was like a student facing the college entrance exams.
However, the noise disappeared the instant the elevator doors opened.
Wang Hao took a deep breath, "This detail is indeed very good! Outside, no matter how loud the noise, nothing happens. But the mont the elevator doors open, no noise is permitted."
He saw a tallic box.
The box that had killed him in the first loop!
The thing looked like a suitcase, emanating a silvery shine, with densely carved tadpole-like scripts all around it.
"This material... could it be Mithril?!"
Wang Hao looked on covetously; Mithril, sothing the Guests had provided so of, had the property to guide spiritual power.
The synthesis of many Strange Objects required Mithril, and it’s quite expensive!
Now, to have a large box made of Mithril possibly weighing hundreds of kilograms, this creature was a walking treasure trove, a real tycoon!
After the Box Monster entered the elevator, it wiggled slowly like a worm.
Old Wang let out a "heh heh heh" strange sound, of course, in the Ga there was no sound at all, manipulating the character to throw the Screaming Chicken right on the path to the coffin.
The box didn’t care and ran right over it.
Suddenly!
A "Ohh~~" sound erupted!
After being pressed down, the Screaming Chicken let out a sharp scream.
How aggrieved it must be to emit such a moving sound!
At that mont, ti seed to stop.
Suddenly, even the woman in perpetual convulsions halted her shaking and turned her twisted face and bloodshot eyes towards the Box Monster.
The box paused for a mont.
Perhaps it was in a state of questioning its life.
The sound was gone.
Then, it moved again.
"Ohh~~"
That aggrieved sound appeared once more.
Each ti it moved, it would scream.
The box quickened its pace, still wanting to co in!
"Where is the security? This noise... who is making this terrible noise?!" Wang Hao roared internally, "What if the elevator goes berserk? I’ve got to take down this Mithril box!"
Sure enough, the standing security officer took action!
He began to operate haphazardly, urgently pressing the buttons inside the elevator.
With a "creak", the elevator bulb flickered twice.
The elevator doors closed abruptly!
There was a light "snap" as if scissors slicing through paper; the elevator door cut the Box Monster cleanly in two!
"This... this is fierce!"
Inside, a sulfuric substance spilled all over the floor, and faintly one could see so red human tissue components, with pungent white fus rising from the liquid.
Wang Hao quickly controlled the ga character to tiptoe against the wall, stepping on a piece of silver tal that splashed out, not wanting to get stained by these strange liquids.
"Just like that, it’s dead?"
Who knows, as the elevator doors closed, the other half of the box remained on the outside.
Are bizarre creatures powerful? Yes, compared to ordinary humans, they are too strong, like crushing a little bug, they can easily crush humans.
But, bizarre creatures lack wisdom.
Their rules often have too many loopholes.
Such as the "elevator".
The elevator is mighty and can traverse through ti and space.
But the elevator can’t discern indirect causality.
In all the bizarre creatures’ cognition, it was the "box’s" doings that caused the massive noise.
The box stepping on the Screaming Chicken was a direct cause.
As to who deliberately dropped the "Screaming Chicken", that’s indirect causality, it, cannot judge indirect causality.
To assess "indirect causality", only the weak but wise humans, and... the powerful Demon Gods can!
...
"What’s going on...?!"
Feng Ling’s heart stirred with a trendous upheaval, as if awaking from a dream.
The Box Monster was dead!
Dead so realistically that no loopholes could be found.
Those organ-like contents splattered out, making a ss on the floor. A formic scent lingered at the tip of her nose, causing a revolting sense of nausea.
The others, indifferent to the twist, only Feng Ling involuntarily held her breath.
"Could it be that mysterious fla is helping break the ga?"
"But why... why is it like this? Do I have so special value to use, worth being saved by reversing ti?"
"Or is this still my delusion?!"
Feng Ling’s mind was a ss of thoughts.
The higher-dinsional ga had already begun.
But she couldn’t sort out the logic, nor did she know what her own value truly was.
...
"Ding-dong! Basent four, we have arrived!"
As the electronic sound chid, Feng Ling’s heart tightened with tension.
This was a floor she had never reached before!
It seed so difficult to travel through parallel worlds.
Afraid?
Fear?
Apprehension?
Anxiety?
She didn’t know, a change might be a good thing.
"If I haven’t fallen into delusion, does it an that so terrifying being is using my body to play a ga with ’It’?"
"To confront ’It’ directly, such a powerful force!"
Unwittingly, her eyes moistened, and she felt an overwhelming urge to cry.
Amidst all her wild thoughts, a headless horror monster arrived at the elevator on basent four.
...
While Wang Hao was anxiously thinking he had finally beaten the ga, a headless corpse about two ters tall stood in front of the elevator doors.
"Ding-dong! Basent four, we have arrived!"
The elevator doors slowly opened.
"What... what is this new product? Why are there still more? How many floors are there?"
Wang Hao was stunned, having thought he had successfully traversed the floors, but instead, basent four was still an eerie world! Who could say if there were a basent five, six, or seven?
The headless giant radiated a chilly aura, with a mouth on its stomach and an eyeball the size of a fist that was sinister to behold. The eye whirred around, and at the mont it fixed its gaze, even the trembling woman froze in place.
It gripped a cleaver shimring with black light.
It seed whispers from a hellish nightmare emanated from the cleaver.
The headless corpse stumbled forward, shoving its way into the elevator.
Now, there were five passengers inside the elevator.
Old rules, the elevator stopped moving again, soone had to get out...
Or die.
"Damn, this is a weirder creature with a higher level of power," Wang Hao inwardly complained upon seeing the headless monstrosity, "The world outside is clearly abnormal."
This creature’s presence was not sothing an ordinary monster could match.
According to various ani and novel settings, it might even possess a "Domain"-like strange ability.
"No screars left, huh... what to do?"
The screar had just been crushed in the previous floor by the elevator doors...
If only he had brought more screars with him.
He didn’t know how many more floors this elevator had... when would the main quest be completed.
As he pondered this, the woman who could cry started sobbing again.
The pitiful character "Feng Ling" once again fell victim to the onslaught of bizarreness and soon died with blood flowing from all orifices.
...
[You have died.]
[Reason: Died of overwhelming sadness.]
Wang Hao looked at the words on the screen and sighed.
"King Yan is easy to et, but the minor ghosts are troubleso."
In just two short hours, he had died three tis in the cycle of reincarnation.
The small Three Stars difficulty seed harder than he had anticipated.
However, he had found the trick to winning.
"Just find enough screars."
Wang Hao thought to himself, "No matter how strong the headless corpse is, it can’t beat the Horrific Elevator that can travel through ti and space. Just get it to step on a screar, no matter how formidable, it has to bite the dust."
Looking at the ti, it was just ten o’clock in the evening, and there were still two hours left before the bet with Han Xiaoyue.
Plenty of ti.
"If I lose, I’ll have to have a turtle drawn on my face..."
Wang Hao had a strange urge to intentionally lose; he had never experienced the sensation of having a turtle drawn on his face...
But, after all, he wasn’t a masochist; he could not bring himself to do sothing as tasteless as intentionally losing the "bet."
"Win, and win with integrity!"
Before the beginning of the fourth cycle, he first browsed the ga store.
Unexpectedly, he actually found sothing good!
[Crazy Screaming Chicken Gift Pack: Contains a mysterious gift box with a hundred screars, whose pitiful cries will surprise and imrse you in a fantasy of love and sorrow.]
[Please note: This item may have special effects in certain scenarios and may be loved, despised, or crazily pursued by the natives. Price: 500 points.]
points for 100 screars?!
Wang Hao wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Too expensive!
Blatantly extortionate!
But buying this would drastically reduce the ga’s difficulty and essentially guarantee a victory in the Horror Elevator!
Regardless, it was impossible for there to be a hundred basent floors in the elevator, right?
After so thought, Wang Hao decided not to buy it.
Win, and win fairly.
Using an item from outside the ga, although allowed by the rules, might cause the girl to beco unsatisfied, clamoring, "You cheated; you can’t draw a turtle on my face!"
To avoid such a situation, he decided... not to buy.
More importantly, it was just too pricey... He couldn’t bear to spend the hard-earned points.
