Qin Lin’s perspective and knowledge were quite different from Constantine’s. He recognized the Return Roulette but had no idea whether it could be used.
"Why are there such things here?"
"Do you want to leave this place?" instead of answering Qin Lin’s question, Bai Wu threw back another question.
"Of course, I do."
"But what if only you can leave, and the other two have to die here?"
"This... Can’t you save everyone?"
"Perhaps I can’t save that many people?"
Bai Wu seed very casual.
Three people, eight possible outcos. This ant combinations of none dying, one dying, two dying, or all dying.
The information given in the notes seed to imply that the number of survivors would affect certain events that happened later.
But there was a big question: why were these three people here?
Was it due to the random rules outside the tower that they happened to be teleported here?
Or was it all designed this way? Regardless of how it was arranged, the possibility existed.
Just like in the Ninth Hospital, there were also traces of soone’s arrangents.
And another big doubt—
Will I passively choose one of the eight outcos, or will I actively choose?
There is a big difference between the two.
The forr suggests that I tried to save all three lives, but due to a variety of miscalculations, one, two, or all three died in the end.
The latter ans that I might choose a specific outco, such as deliberately sacrificing one or two people, or even deciding that all three deserve to die, hence saving none.
If it’s the latter, it ans there’s at least one person among the three with significant issues.
The situation was becoming more interesting, and Bai Wu was increasingly intrigued:
"If I could only save one, I’d choose you, but now you have to answer so of my questions."
Bai Wu didn’t think this otaku, Qin Lin, could offer any valuable suggestions, but today Qin was the King of Fortune, so his opinions might be worth considering.
"What questions... You’re talking about possibilities, right, Lord Constantine? Just ifs and maybes? But actually, everyone could be saved, right?"
Not bad, soone who likes Blue-Eyes White Dragon isn’t too malicious at heart.
"These three items, one is the Return Roulette, one is the Negative Status Cleansing Potion, and one is an umbrella for acid rain."
"How did you know that?"
"Never mind how I know. You tell , which item do you think is the most important."
"If this is true, they are all critical... Laoda is afflicted with confusion, Mr. Liang with emotional displacent; with the potion, we could clear their negative statuses.
And... I’m just guessing, but that monster seems to be afraid of rain. If we had the umbrella, would we be able to lure the monster into the rain to kill it?"
Qin Lin pondered for a mont:
"As for the roulette... Ah, if there were three roulettes, that would be great, but with only one, it doesn’t seem very important."
Basically the sa conclusion I ca to: the roulette is the least useful.
As long as we deal with the monster, even a single roulette will suffice.
Bai Wu narrowed his eyes, displaying a look that was sowhat similar to Wu Jiu. His mind was piecing together various clues.
He would soon unravel the mystery of the Bizarre Jungle, with just one key piece missing — the content of Dandelion’s notes.
This is a logic puzzle, if among the three items, only one could lead to a breakout and result in one of the eight outcos.
Then it certainly isn’t the roulette, because once the roulette is activated, I can assert that Evil Fallen would certainly manage to kill the other two people.
Dandelion himself might not be dangerous, but this area... could be alive.
The bizarrely shaped giant trees, the red luminescent mushrooms, and the peculiar phenonon of the acid rain not causing erosion—it’s not hinting, it’s plainly telling there’s sothing wrong with this place.
So the choice roulette can trigger only three outcos, the person using the roulette survives while the others die.
And if the Return Roulette is the wrong option, then the most likely thing should be the umbrella.
At that mont, Qin Lin also said:
"Laoda... I think the umbrella should be the most useful, if we could only choose one most useful item, it must be the umbrella."
Yes, the umbrella is the most useful.
But there is a premise—the rainwater can truly kill Evil Fallen.
Dandelion is clearly different from the other low-level Evil Fallen, although it only has a level-four Mutation Entry, it possesses a perfect Mutation Entry, perhaps crafted by that teacher, making Dandelion unique and wise.
Then the question arises.
Bai Wu smiled and said:
"How do you find this room compared to the previous hiding spots?"
"I can’t feel it..."
"Really can’t feel it? Don’t you think this room is exceptionally clean?"
"Ah, now that you ntion it, it does seem so."
"Evil Fallen carry a scent of decay all over them, but this room is very clean, as if it has never been visited before. What do you think, Liang Yu?"
Qin Lin shook his head in bewildernt. He had always been treated as a mascot and rarely participated in interactions; the team mbers didn’t pay much attention to his opinions either.
Bai Wu had his answer.
Regarding Evil Fallen, the pieces connected.
This room, which the entirely decayed Dandelion never visited, might...not know at all what’s inside the room.
Or perhaps it knows but out of so form of reverence or amusent, it never entered. Right, the remark hints that this is Dandelion’s ostensible room, indicating that this is just a facade.
Combining Dandelion’s perverse fun in slowly savoring the scent of his prey’s desperation with the various warnings ntioned in the remarks... Bai Wu suddenly understood!
Acid rain... can’t kill it at all! This could also explain why Dandelion would snatch the bodies in the rain.
Acid rain could severely damage Dandelion, but Dandelion’s regeneration speed exceeded the corrosion rate.
Even the pain might give it an unusual pleasure.
Everything was an illusion deliberately created by Dandelion, wanting people to think it feared acid rain!
And the last key piece of information, Qin Lin’s words!
"Yang Zhen’s negative attribute was confusion, and Mr. Liang told you he was infected with emotional dislocation?"
"Yes... but they both seem to be able to control it."
Mr. Liang’s negative attribute is corruption, yet he told his teammates it was emotional dislocation? Why would he lie?
This probably relates to the negative attribute of corruption.
Corruption... Bai Wu didn’t know what the attribute of corruption entailed, but extending from its literal aning, it could an Will succumbing to Evil Fallen?
In other words, if they don’t quickly remove the negative attribute from Liang Yu, a traitor might erge among the three?
Looking at it this way, the potion is inevitably to be used.
The multiple-choice question had been unraveled, but Bai Wu didn’t just take the potion and leave.
"Take the umbrella and the Return Roulette."
"Oh, okay."
Qin Lin was unaware of the so-called multiple-choice question; in his view, naturally it would be best to take all three items.
Although Bai Wu knew that two of the items would bring misleading guidance, by seeing through Dandelion’s trick, he could also mislead the adversary in turn.
In terms of acting, Bai Wu was not timid.
Now only one last question remained, if acid rain can’t kill Dandelion, then what can?
