It appeared that they needed to search for clues again, so they hurriedly examined the book with the word “reality.”
“We have to find a quiet place or a safe place to watch silently.” As they scanned the pages, they realized that they needed to find a peaceful or secure location to read and reflect.
They knew they couldn’t enter any rooms because it could be a trap, violating the evil rule set by the building’s architect. They couldn’t help but admire the mastermind behind the design, wondering who could have such extreme thoughts.
Was it Simon or Sanderson?
The book only contained five pages, each depicting seemingly unrelated images. However, upon seeing them, Simon suddenly felt dizzy and began to step backward.
Sanderson quickly asked him what was wrong, noticing the drastic change in his expression. “Riley! Riley! Simon Riley, answer me! What’s going on?”
“Leave him be! It is obvious that the five pictures in this book are definitely items that he is very familiar with, or rather, information that can immediately awaken his memory!”
Sanderson quickly looked at the five pictures.
The first depicted a massive whip, likely used for punishment by many families. The second showcased an eye-catching M4 assault rifle. The third was a gruesome tooth that had been yanked out of someone’s mouth. The fourth showed a medal with the number “141” engraved on it. The fifth and final picture displayed a .44 Magnum pistol.
Upon seeing the last image, Bai Han recalled Sheffield and the gun he had wielded. The pictures hinted at an unusual and unsettling past, which seemed to relate to Sheffield in some way.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
At this moment, the entire floor suddenly began to shake! They felt that the gate was collapsing, and everyone started to run upstairs!
“Damn it!”
Simon suddenly shouted at the people in front of him. Then, his body seemed to be controlled by something. He picked up the gun in his hand and mercilessly fired at the people in front of him.
“Henricus, I remember now!”
Bai Han and Lin Yuwei looked at the two brothers in front of them and did not know what to say. They could not go forward to save them. Even if they consumed the Golden Body Fruit,
they could not save the brothers since it only benefited the person who consumed it.
“Hurry, we must find a way to save them!” Lin Yuwei urged.
“We are powerless here. This illusory world is a reflection of Simon Riley’s heart, and we have no means to rescue him. We can only hope for his redemption, or it’s possible that he’s already dead and only the illusion remains,” Bai Han explained, feeling helpless.
They watched in despair as the two special forces soldiers fell into the abyss. They grabbed the book and quickly made their way up to the fourth floor, determined to find a way to escape on their own. Understanding the meaning behind the five image patterns was crucial to their survival.
The moment they reached the fourth floor, everything below stopped.
However, there was only one room on the fourth floor, and the room was most probably the attic of this building, which might hold the truth they sought. However, it could also harbor greater danger.
“We need to draw out all the secrets of this distorted Initial Mystic Realm forest. The two special forces soldiers we encountered might be able to help us. The person who created these virtual worlds is not a simple individual. He’s manipulating everything behind the scenes and chose Simon, who is fragile and inexperienced, as the carrier of this fictional world. The reason behind this will provide us with the final answer to our puzzle,” Bai Han said.
With that, they took each other’s hands and kicked open the door of the attic.
“Surrender now! You’re exploiting the weak spot of a special forces soldier! Creating a world to make him suffer even more is inhumane!” Lin Yuwei shouted, confronting whoever was behind this twisted game.
Bai Han had a hunch about what was going on, so he decided to confront the mastermind. However, as he looked around, he realized that the ground was littered with EXP, bonus items, golden fruits, and other useful items like magic recovery items and durability materials for their weapons.
“You guys are impressive, but if you want to uncover the truth, you’ll have to kill me or go down there and find out for yourselves!” The mastermind quickly gathered all the props and prepared for the upcoming battle.
“Grab onto me tightly, we can’t let go!” As the surroundings began to shake and crumble, the only things left were the five patterns revolving around them. Bai Han wondered about the pain Simon Riley experienced and why he wanted to subject everyone to it, to the extent that he immersed himself in the pain he created.
[Ding! Congratulations, you have unlocked the hidden level.]
[You can choose to accept this mission or not. This is an option.]
[If you choose not to do it, you can leave directly through the door behind you and return to the Initial Mystic Forest to carry out the regular mission. However, you will miss all the truth about the Mystic Forest!]
[If you choose to accept the mission, please walk straight to one of the five patterns. Only one of the five patterns corresponds to the final truth. If you choose wrongly, you will experience an even more painful battle and be required to make another choice.]
The system’s voice rang out, signaling that they had left the supposed Odd-shaped Cave. But, it dawned on them that the Odd-shaped Cave might not have existed at all.
They could have entered Simon Riley’s fictional world the moment they stepped into the Twisted Jungle. These were all mere speculations, yet Bai Han firmly believed that he wouldn’t follow Chen Han and Zhou Qiang’s path of leveling up by simply clearing the game.
He was a fighter at heart, and he believed that only those who loved to fight could emerge victorious.
