Lin Yu was utterly devastated; this was clearly an unsolvable predicament!
No, since the audience instructions provide a hint, the solution must be related to that hint!
Suddenly, Lin Yu felt a surge of power in his desperate situation. His mind raced, and he refused to accept his fate!
If you hear someone calling your name from behind while walking up the stairs, please don't turn around. The person calling you might not be your companion.
There are currently two key points: 1. the corner, and 2. turning back.
But if they hadn't turned around at the corner, when would they have turned back?
Or rather, it wasn't that they turned around, but rather that the entire staircase was reversed, thus achieving the same effect.
Lin Yu seemed to have grasped something, and in an instant, his eyes burned brightly:
"I know how to deal with this monstrosity!"
Inside the elevator, which was carpeted in bright red, the display screen showed: "4, 5".
The blond-haired man, huddled in the corner, covered in blood, pleaded desperately:
"Third Master, Master Li, please, please let me go!"
After Lin Yu and the others left, Huang Mao's arms and legs were broken, and he was taken back to the elevator. When they reached the fourth floor, Third Master and Li Fei did not throw him out, but instead protected him.
Therefore, Huang Mao still harbored a sliver of hope at this point.
Maybe Third Master and the others will let me go?
Li Fei's eyes were cold, and the blond-haired man's knife was already hanging on his waist.
Third Master grinned: "See for yourself."
As he spoke, he moved aside, revealing the blood-red writing on the elevator wall that had been obscured.
The blond-haired man looked up and saw a passage written in English. After translating it using the control panel, the content was as follows:
On January 1, 2023, I and five companions rode this elevator. When it reached the second floor, I saw many gray-skinned monsters. They rushed at us frantically, and we were all going to die!
At that moment, a man named Wendis stepped forward, voluntarily exiting the elevator to stop the monster for us. He is our hero!
[On the 3rd floor, the 4th floor, and every subsequent floor, companions would step forward. The number of companions decreased, and when it came to the 6th floor, it was finally my turn.]
I don't want to, but the other person has a gun...
I smashed my head against the elevator wall and died. The monster rushed in, haha! We're all going to die together, why should I get out? Why?
The blond-haired man's pupils widened, his scalp tingled, and his soul trembled!
Lin Yu's conjecture was directly confirmed by this. Weren't these people the companions that Third Master had specially found?
No wonder, Third Master was both coaxing them and weakening their strength, just to prevent this final scene from happening.
Now, with his limbs broken and his weapons taken away, his fate is sealed!
Completely desperate, the blond-haired man let out a series of curses:
"Damn it! Song Tianhuo, damn it! Why didn't you take me with you? Damn it! I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"
He blamed everything on Lin Yu.
A playful smile curled at the corner of Third Master's lips: "Don't worry, none of those defectors will survive. They'll be joining you soon!"
"Really? That's great!" The blond-haired man showed a satisfied expression.
Li Fei felt something and smiled:
"I remember when we brothers came to this instance, we were all stunned when we saw the words on the elevator."
Third Master nodded and sighed:
"Back then, we were still very weak and afraid of being pushed out to our deaths by our teammates. Fortunately, our leader was there. He intimidated everyone and prevented his teammates from killing each other."
"He told us that this was a deliberate misleading explanation from the game's creators, and that the real way to beat it was not this."
Li Fei sighed:
"Unfortunately, the leader never found the right way to pass the level, and as the elevator climbed higher and higher, brothers died on every floor."
"Those people thought that since someone was going to die anyway, they might as well just push that person out to die and let the rest of them have their way. The boss was furious and almost beat them to death."
A hint of melancholy flashed in Third Master's eyes:
"When the elevator arrived at the 5th floor, the original group of 20 people had dwindled to 12. As the elevator went up, the number of people would only decrease."
"The leader was still unwilling to abandon his teammates. He gritted his teeth and led everyone to the stairs, but six people got scared and ran back halfway."
As he spoke, the melancholy in Third Master's eyes gradually faded, leaving only indifference. He chuckled softly:
"The eldest brother and the others never returned. Among those who escaped, the two of us survived. I never expected that after a year and a half, we would be back here again."
Li Fei's eyes were filled with nothing but indifference:
"I thought everything would be foolproof, but who would have thought that Song Tianhuo would betray me!"
"Fortunately, the outcome won't change. We'll survive and get the high rewards from the dungeon, while they'll only face certain death!"
Li Fei suddenly looked at the blond-haired man with a smile:
"Actually, we don't necessarily want to send you to your death."
The blond-haired man's eyes lit up: "What do you want me to do? Just let me go, and I'll agree to anything you ask!"
Li Fei said with a mocking expression, "Use your brain. As long as you find the right way to pass the level, you won't die."
The blond-haired man's eyes suddenly dimmed.
"The correct way to pass this level? Where can I find the correct way to pass this level?!"
"Hahaha!" Laughter from Third Master and Li Fei echoed in the elevator.
A few seconds later, the elevator stopped on the 5th floor and the elevator doors opened.
In the dark stairwell, Zhao Daqiang and Sun Qianqian felt a jolt, as if they had heard the most beautiful sound in the world, but they were also somewhat unsure.
"Song Tianhuo, do you really have a way?" Sun Qianqian asked in a trembling voice.
