"At the sa ti, they cannot invade unoccupied areas. In other words, they can’t enter empty houses."
It was the first ti Xiaojin had heard of the existence of visitors.
"The higher the level, the greater the chance of encountering various peculiar groups," Xun Hui explained.
This sentence was quite valuable.
Because soon, Wen Xishu and the others encountered the second wave of visitors. This ti, the visitor was a woman in a floral dress, very stunningly beautiful.
But she didn’t speak, just stood silently at the entrance of the supermarket.
Nissen looked at the woman, almost drooling.
But he knew that a woman standing outside the area late at night in the Slaughter Tower was definitely not a good sign.
The third wave of visitors was an old man, and this ti the old man could speak.
"Would you like so tea? My tea can make you immortal."
"Don’t like immortality tea? I also have good luck tea, intelligence tea, charm tea."
The old man wore a long robe, his head full of white hair, and a benevolent face. His spiritual power seed very strong, several tis making Wen Xishu and the others think, "Why not have a sip and see?"
But Xun Hui just sneered once and rescued everyone from this ntal intrusion.
In the end, the old man could only shake his head helplessly:
"Unappreciative of good tea, unable to distinguish loyalty from treachery, good from evil, hopeless."
The old man left reluctantly, giving off a feeling of a huge missed opportunity.
But Xun Hui later remarked with cold indifference:
"There are no opportunities in the Slaughter Tower. The only opportunities in the Slaughter Tower are those you earn in the other two towers. If you think there’s anything in the Slaughter Tower that can help Tower Climbers... then you’re just waiting to die."
Wen Xishu deeply agreed and realized the dangers of this night.
"I’ve got to engrave the rule of not talking to anyone other than teammates at night... deep into my bones."
Wen Xishu and everyone else thought so.
But next, the fourth wave of visitors brought a new move.
The supermarket was well-stocked, and there were plenty of food items in Area B that could replenish their state, leaving everyone well fed. When nature called, Nissen decided to find a place to relieve himself.
Before long, Nissen was no longer seen by the campfire.
And shortly after, Nissen’s voice ca from outside the door:
"I’m so cold, let in to warm up."
Xiaojin instinctively wanted to say, "Wow, Brother Nissen, you sure are brave, going outside to pee! Co in quickly!"
But as soon as he ntioned bravery, Wen Xishu covered Xiaojin’s mouth.
"That’s not Nissen."
One sentence made Yue Yun and Xiaojin shiver.
They imdiately realized that indeed, it was not Nissen outside. There was only a dark shadow outside the door.
Wen Xishu had to admit that without a master like Xun Hui holding the fort... no matter how smart he was, he wouldn’t survive in the Slaughter Tower.
One night gave Wen Xishu the feeling that the outside of the supermarket was simply a scene of nocturnal monsters.
Not long after, Nissen returned, sitting by the campfire, looking at everyone:
"Why is everyone looking at so strangely?"
Wen Xishu recounted what had just happened.
Nissen was shocked:
"Bro! There’s a monster outside that looks just like ?"
Yue Yun said, "It’s clearly not the sa as you... rather, it observed you and then mimicked you."
Wen Xishu nodded:
"Yes, in other words, it’s best we stay inside and not stray far tonight. Although we’re in the supermarket, those visitors... can hear our voices. They know who’s missing by the campfire."
"Obviously, they seem to know everything except not daring to co in."
Xiaojin was frightened, and Nissen was shivering.
Both felt like they were being watched by countless monsters with countless eyes in the dark night.
Luckily, with Xun Hui around, the monsters didn’t dare to force their way in. Visitors could actually attack forcefully. Unlike Wanderers, they were just suppressed by rules, and forceful attacks would be disadvantageous.
But if their enemies were too weak... then they wouldn’t care about such things.
However, with Xun Hui in charge, no monsters would attack forcefully that night, and no one would be bewitched into inviting visitors inside.
The first night passed.
By the break of dawn, everyone felt the oppressive sense outside suddenly disappear.
"The night is over, the visitors have all hidden," Wen Xishu estimated.
It seems that nights in the Slaughter Tower are much more dangerous than the days.
Everyone took turns resting. No one would sleep completely.
For Wen Xishu and Yue Yun, being cautious on the fifty-plus floors of the Slaughter Tower was never overdone.
Even during the day, they were extrely careful.
On the second morning, Xun Hui went out directly.
This ti, when Xun Hui returned, he was a bit disheveled, covered in blood, so of it his own, and so pale purple, which was corrosive.
Fortunately, not long after sitting by the campfire, Xun Hui fell asleep comfortably.
He had killed another leader-level monster.
During the day, Wen Xishu entered the chat channel, trying to deepen his favorability with others.
But he failed.
Wen Xishu discovered a point... even for himself, it was very, very difficult to advance the tiline.
If it weren’t for Tang Rui’s full favorability, plus the Scorpio’s cheating knife that conveniently provided the chat channel function, he wouldn’t be able to easily advance the tiline.
Furthermore, advancing the tiline must cause significant changes for people like Tang Rui and Jack.
Wen Xishu found... whether he talked about how he killed the Ghost Bride, or shared so things about the twelve zodiac signs...
