Chapter 59.
What he meant, of course, was for everyone to join forces in the middle area to fight against the weird things.
Darika looked at Wilder's face and cursed with gnashing teeth: "You are so despicable and shameless!"
This guy used up his skill-enhancing items right in front of them, and his strength went up a level. In this tower, while everyone else was trying their best to fight against the weirdness, he was the only one strolling around without any pressure.
When others were tired of climbing the stairs, this guy was watching the fun. When others were desperately fighting monsters, this guy was still watching the fun.
Isn't this another kind of torture?
Facing Darica's scolding, Wilder seemed accustomed to it. He smiled and said, "This is the twenty-third time you have scolded me."
Darika said angrily, "This is the twenty-third time you've asked us!"
At first, when Wilder explained his plan to everyone, this group of fearless bosses said that there was no way they would agree to it.
Wilder didn't mind it, he would just show up every once in a while to ask what everyone thought.
If someone disagrees, he will not force it, but choose to ask next time.
Just like now, Darica sternly rejected Wilde's proposal.
"Give up. I won't agree to your plan. Go to hell with your ridiculous plan!"
Wilder smiled helplessly and said, "This is the most terrible curse for me. Well, maybe you will agree next time."
As he said this, he was about to leave, but before he took two steps, he was stopped by others.
They stopped Wilder not to attack him, but to beg for mercy.
Qiu Linfei was the first to step forward and stop Wilder who was about to leave. His voice trembled slightly due to nervousness and fear.
He said, "Mr. Wilder, I, I am willing to join your plan. Can you take me with you? I, I really don't want to stay in this place anymore."
An Xiashan, who was traveling with him, immediately agreed: "Yes, I am willing to join too. I am not against the alliance. As long as you can take me out of the dungeon safely, I can fight against the strange invasion with you."
At that time, several people also stood up and expressed their opinions, saying that they were almost driven crazy by this high tower in the past few days.
The top bosses who used to call the shots in the middle field and the best people ranked in the top 20 of the Heavenly Ranking are now just poor people begging for mercy.
Wilder looked at these people with pity and said, "We are all a team. Since we want to unite, we must be in order. Only when everyone agrees with my plan, I will take you away from here."
Apart from those who couldn't bear it, there were a few strong people among the dozen or so people who were gritting their teeth and resisting. Among them, Darika's resistance was the strongest.
Qiu Linfei really couldn't hold on any longer. He was obviously frightened by his unconscious behavior that almost led to suicide.
He knew in his heart that if he dragged on here any longer, he would either die at the hands of the monster or die in the abyss.
He looked at Wilder and kept saying, "They are them, and I am me. Those people are unwilling to support you, and that is their own death. I can't die with them!"
Wilder gave sincere advice: "You can help me persuade them. If everyone agrees, I will take you away from here."
Darika looked coldly at the people who were speaking well of Wilder, and said disdainfully: "Humph, I really don't know how those who follow you will feel when they see you in such a despicable state!"
An Xiashan turned around and glared at Darika angrily, saying, "You are capable! If you are capable, kill all those monsters, don't scream here!"
He originally wanted to curse more harshly, but because Darika was too strong and had a bad temper, he could only try his best to control his temper.
However, he obviously underestimated the impact of the negative energy that the tower continued to emit. After being confronted, Darika's already hot-tempered temper exploded.
Two balls of flame suddenly appeared on her hands, and her brown eyes narrowed dangerously.
Darika looked at An Xiashan coldly and said, "Do you believe that I will make you shut up forever!"
As she spoke, Darica had already shot out the fireball in her hand. Wilder had been secretly on guard against Darica hurting people, and when he saw her taking action, he was about to take action to resolve the attack.
As a result, before Wilder could make a move, an invisible gravity field descended, and Darika's fireball floated and stagnated in the air, even the jumping flames stopped.
However, this gravity field did not last long. It only slowed down the speed of the fireball for a moment before disappearing. Fortunately, An Xiashan was not an ordinary person and he easily avoided it with the help of this obstacle.
Darika glared at Miles angrily: "What does it have to do with you!"
Miles was already a little exhausted after the battle, and after applying the gravity field again, he was so tired that he didn't even want to move his fingers.
He did not explain anything to Darika. His eyes, which were once full of hostility, were now filled with fatigue.
Miles looked at Wilder and asked in a hoarse voice: "Can you promise to take us out alive?"
Wilder looked at Miles with interest and asked, "Have you finally figured it out?"
Darika looked at Miles in disbelief and said, "Are you crazy? Don't you know that this choice will make us controlled by others? People like Wilder are nothing good. Be careful or he will kill you!"
Miles is the strongest man on the Heavenly Ranking, second only to Wilde and Darika, and his group of strong men is one of the best guilds in the middle field.
When entering this copy, Miles was also one of those who strongly opposed Wilde's plan.
As a strong man who has fought his way out of the middle field, he knows that human hearts cannot be trusted and it is impossible to form an alliance unless he is above everyone else!
What Darika didn't expect was that this guy who had always been strongly opposed to Wilde would actually choose to compromise!
Facing Darica's shocked look, Miles laughed sarcastically: "If we join him, we can still get out alive. If we don't join, we will only die here."
Darika paused, unable to refute anything for a moment.
Miles was right. This copy was too terrifying. They would not be able to get out alive relying on their own strength alone.
Wilde was threatening everyone's life to force them to submit.
He had no conspiracy or trickery, but simply put the simple proposition of life and death before everyone.
With Miles' compromise and Darika's silence, those who had previously stood in the resistance camp could no longer hold on.
Someone suggested, "Why don't we just agree to it? After all, Wilder said that we will just unite everyone's strength to fight against the weirdness. We are still the guild president."
"That's right. What we did before was to fight against weird things. What's the difference?"
"Yes, yes, we don't lose anything!"
"It's not worth it!"
People tend to follow the crowd, and their hearts are easily swayed. Once one person expresses his or her opinion, others will follow suit.
For a moment, everyone inexplicably reached a consensus.
At this moment, everyone looked back at themselves who had refused to obey in the past few days, and suddenly felt that they were extremely stupid at that time.
Miles looked at everyone and saw that they had reached a consensus. He leaned against the wall with an ambiguous smile on his face.
Before the weirdness came, he was just a street thug. After the weirdness came, he became the leader of a top guild.
The reason why Miles can achieve his current success is that he has always firmly believed in one concept - human hearts cannot be trusted!
He neither believed that Wilder had everyone unite simply to fight against the weirdness, nor did he intend to faithfully fulfill his promise after leaving the copy.
Promises are just ridiculous fairy tales for fools, and Wilder, the charlatan, is a ridiculous fool.
Miles didn't mind giving him a good lesson to let him know not to trust others easily in the future.
With this feeling, Miles raised his hand and said, "I agree to join Wilder's Fire Project."
As he said this, he licked his lips and glanced at everyone dangerously, and said, "If anyone objects, I don't mind letting his guild change its owner."
Faced with Miles' threat, those who were already wavering completely changed their positions and agreed to join Wilde's camp.
Darika looked at the one-sided situation. Even though she was unwilling in her heart, she knew that she could not overcome the opponent's will.
She looked at Wilder's hateful face and said viciously, "I have to tell you that your plan is hopelessly stupid! If one day that plan cannot be carried out, I will withdraw from the alliance without hesitation!"
Wilder just smiled at everyone and said, "Since we have reached a consensus, let's sign the contract."
As he spoke, he took out a stack of parchments from his arms. Because there were so many of them, the stack of parchments seemed particularly heavy in his hand.
Miles looked at the parchment in Wilder's hand, and his eyelids couldn't help but twitch after feeling the strange energy field on the parchment.
"What is this?"
Wilder soothed him, "Don't worry, this is just to make sure you don't break your promise. As long as everyone keeps their word, it won't cause any harm."
"I don't think this is necessary. We have all agreed to unite with you. It might hurt people's feelings if you do this!" Miles tried to struggle.
Wilder looked at him with a smile and said calmly, "There is a story in the Bible. After the flood, although the descendants of Noah moved to different places, they still spoke the same language. The humans who multiplied on the earth united as one and wanted to build a giant tower that reached the sky. They named this road to the sky the Tower of Babel."
"But this act violated the majesty of the gods. When the tower was almost completed, God confused their language, making it impossible for people to communicate. This created a gap and they no longer trusted each other. Ultimately, the Tower of Babel could no longer be built."
Miles couldn't help but ask after hearing this: "Are you saying that this giant tower we are in is the legendary Tower of Babel?"
Wilder still smiled and said, "Who knows? I told you this story just to teach you a lesson: don't trust people easily."
Miles: “…”
