Yes, Cheng Shuang never thinks about losing. Why add so much negative emotion and pressure to herself? Her brain is already not enough; she can't bear more emotions that don't belong to her.
But Ossa is definitely a problem. Ever since Renn mentioned that name, Bai Lian has been silent for a good half hour.
Judging from the way she asked and answered her own questions, she should have talked to Cheng Shuang for at least two hours, then had a drink of water, ate something, and continued.
The entire space is now quiet; even the snoring monster has instinctively stopped its deafening snoring and is in a semi-alert state.
However, Cheng Shuang needs to obtain information about the Olympiad.
Since they are a formidable enemy, we shouldn't fight battles we're not confident of winning.
At that moment, the little bear appeared, wriggling its fluffy body and diligently using a damp cotton swab to moisten the little girl's lips. Of course, it also stuffed blue pills into her nostrils.
"Little cutie, is your toy a wind-up toy? I used to have a wind-up dog! It was so cute! It was the only gift I ever received! It was given to me by the second-floor manager at the time, what was his name again... I think it was something like Ren, oh dear, I can't remember! He was such a good person! It's a pity he died such a tragic death!"
"Thinking about it, I've been on the second floor for quite a while now. The second floor is great! If you encounter a strong enemy, you can just admit defeat. If you don't, you can just relax and enjoy the life. Anyway, monsters and invaders are different. You invaders are the ones who are truly miserable. I heard that in the last hundred years, invaders have only appeared about twenty times. The first time was fifty years ago, when things were in chaos!"
"I heard that humans hate invaders because they unilaterally withdrew from the contract and disappeared, causing 90% of the already small human population to die. Later, it was the Lord who, seeing the shortage of living organisms, researched and created us!"
"Oh dear, I seem to have... said too much!" Bai Lian covered her mouth at the right moment, her eyes unable to help but scrutinize Cheng Shuang, full of surprise. "But why did Aussie choose the little cutie! Isn't that guy always so lazy?! Strange!"
Cheng Shuang listened intently, hoping to glean more information. She had some guesses about the conflict between the natives and their protectors.
Logically, the indigenous people shouldn't hate the protectors who shouldn't have any conflict with them so much. After all, they are from different planes but share the same origin and belong to the same human race on Earth.
Cheng Shuang didn't believe that all the maintainers had disappeared (returned to their respective rest stations). This land of death restricted three people, and their strength was too weak. In the early stages of the wanderers' invasion, when they entered this place, they were like fish in the ocean, unable to make the slightest ripple.
It's possible they were maintainers on different planets in the cycle of reincarnation, who happened to enter the same place of death at the same time.
In reality, the information returned from the nine floors was far too little.
According to Xiao Q, only two people sent messages during this period, but they both hurriedly obtained return tickets and fled back. They didn't know much about the types of wanderers or the situation above the fifth floor.
It should be said that the returning maintainer, after choosing to enter the 'Nine-Story Tower,' did not even understand who his enemy was, so he left the prompt 'Fight to the death,' which shows that he was really serious about advancing.
This alone shows that the two who returned were not the maintainers who had reached an agreement with the natives. Before the 'Nine-Story Building' was built, those maintainers should have at least known the true face of the 'Master' and were very likely already dead at the hands of the wanderers.
The reason why a conflict is a conflict is entirely because neither side has enough opportunity to understand the other, nor is they willing to have such an opportunity.
Especially when there is a huge disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves, the horrific extermination makes it easy for the other side to trust the light of hope that can help them, but it is equally easy for all their beliefs to be destroyed overnight.
Bai Lian's subsequent nagging cleverly avoided the topic of the Olympiad, so Cheng Shuang simply calmed down and conserved her energy to wait for the tiebreaker to begin.
Three hours later, the tow truck pulled the little girl out of the gate again, where a young man was standing.
He has long, seaweed-like hair, a tall and slender figure, long legs, a small face, and stunning good looks, yet he also possesses a heroic air.
The young man slowly turned to the side, his emerald green eyes fixed on Cheng Shuang, a sense of indescribable melancholy in them. It seemed that seeing his sadness would break everyone's heart.
Cheng Shuang suspected that this humanoid monster was still mentally-based, as its mere face could be suffocating.
But soon she realized it wasn't.
The Lost Monster relayed a message: Osei's mental strength was high, but not ridiculously high; at least the Lost Monster could sense it.
What could be the reason?
The little girl even had the idea of having a proper talk with the other party. Why did they have to fight and kill each other? Wouldn't it be better if they could live together peacefully?
Of course not!
The thought flashed through Cheng Shuang's mind, but she quickly dismissed it.
Tao was also very handsome. Although he was young and thin, as a naturally born god or demon, his appearance was impeccable, yet he never gave her the illusion of being dazzled or mesmerized.
Cheng Shuang became fully alert, her premonition growing stronger. Olympia, who seemed harmless, would be difficult to deal with.
The Olympia strolled in, as if stepping on lotus blossoms, a scene both dreamlike and ethereal.
He smiled kindly at Cheng Shuang, his voice as beautiful as his personality, breathtakingly so, "I love peace and have no desire to fight with anyone!"
He gently sat down beside Cheng Shuang, ignoring the bear cub's defiant roars, picked it up, and asked softly, "Is this your toy? It's so cute!"
Cheng Shuang, who had been lost in the man's radiance, snapped back to reality. Her heart sank slightly. Apart from her companions, Xiong Baobao would not allow anyone to touch it, let alone let an enemy pick it up and hold it comfortably like an ordinary toy.
