In the dim environnt, there were many sounds.
Wen Xishu looked around and found that Yue Yun and others were all present. This reassured him a lot.
"Where is this place?"
"Help! I want to go back to the bunker! I want to go back to the bunker!"
"Dad, Mom, where are you! It’s so cold here!"
"Have we... arrived in Hell?"
Countless voices of the lower-tier bunker residents rose and fell.
Most of them were crying, breathing uneasily, and shouting anxiously. The coughing of the elderly, the cries of children.
The densely packed voices intertwined into a web.
Wen Xishu realized that this ti, many people might die.
He began observing his surroundings; it seed like a cellar... a very large cellar, which contained many jars.
There was no sunlight; Wen Xishu thought he would be teleported to so sort of castle based on the description.
A mysterious woman, shoes with eerie powers... these seed like a dark dieval story.
But he did not expect to end up in a place without sunlight. The entire cellar was lit only by candlelight.
Wen Xishu noticed that these flas seed to be durable, capable of burning indefinitely. He stared at one candle for a while and saw a notification.
[Dark Light: They are the only light source. After the apocalypse, they also received grace and will never be extinguished. But don’t get too close, they will ignite you. The flas here won’t kill you but will keep burning, forever burning...]
Only Wen Xishu could see these words, which really surprised him.
He had seen flas that could turn anything to ashes, but it was the first ti he saw flas that couldn’t kill but would keep burning a person.
In a sense, this thing could be considered a kind of torture device.
At this mont, soone was holding a candle, walking back and forth in the dim cellar.
Wen Xishu suddenly thought of a terrifying scene...
The eternally burning candle, accidentally ignited soone’s body... that person wouldn’t die but would continually feel the burning pain. They would run everywhere, roll on the ground, trying to extinguish the flas, but to no avail...
More and more people got touched by them, turning the entire cellar into a sea of flas filled with the living.
Just thinking about it made even soone as brave as Wen Xishu feel a little scared.
Luckily, he found that those flas were not so aggressive, and the people holding the candles were quite cautious.
Wen Xishu did not imdiately stop them, fearing that it might cause unnecessary panic and lead to tragedy.
He continued to observe his surroundings.
A while ago, Wen Xishu and his partners Yue Yun and Ah Miao entered a vortex.
Then they fell into a brief unconscious state.
But before this process, Wen Xishu actually experienced an extra segnt.
That was the new cheat function of the Scorpion Knife and the rolling of the Mad Dice.
The cheating knife of Scorpio provided Wen Xishu an ability this ti called "Faction System."
Simply put, this ti Wen Xishu could see people who did not belong to his faction.
Their nas were displayed in red.
This was a pretty common ga system, after all, many ga developers knew that scant ga content could be alleviated by inciting conflicts among players.
No matter how small a ga map was, as long as you could shoot players from opposing factions on it, you wouldn’t feel bored easily.
However, whether this faction system would play a role in this mission, or whether it would be left unused like last ti’s save point, Wen Xishu was not sure.
In any case, it didn’t seem like a particularly miraculous ability.
Moreover, this ti the Mad Dice gave very few options.
When Wen Xishu rolled the Mad Dice, the results were — 4, 3, 3.
This was quite a diocre roll. There were only two options for Wen Xishu to choose from.
[Pri Boost: (Triggered when two pri numbers are included in the three dice. Effect: During completion reward settlent, if there are items, sequences, or facilities, one of them will trigger Pri Boost, enhancing its quality and grade.)]
[Topsy-Turvy: (Triggered when the three dice show four and three, and no other numbers are present, i.e., 433 or 443. Effect: You can correct four wrong actions to beco correct actions, and you can convert three negative effects happening to you into positive effects.)]
Following the principle of choosing new over old, Wen Xishu chose the latter. Topsy-Turvy.
Perhaps in the midst of chaos, he could find a way to survive.
Furthermore, the survival rate of Topsy-Turvy was evidently higher than that of Pri Boost.
But Wen Xishu had to admit, this ti...
The help he received from the Mad Dice was far less than "Trinity." The options were almost non-existent.
This made him more cautious.
At this mont, Yue Yun approached Wen Xishu:
"Wen Xishu, Nissen and I just wandered around. This place is huge, as big as a sports stadium with a court."
"It also has many rooms, including a library, dining hall, prayer room, several bedrooms, and bathrooms."
"But strangely, almost... no, not almost, every place, every room here, has countless jars."
"These jars are sealed. We checked, the stoppers are in place. We didn’t dare to open them, feeling there’s sothing weird inside."
"Additionally, there are too many people. There are about two hundred people here. Almost all are from the bunker, including the elderly, children, the sick, pregnant won, people with disabilities, all kinds of vulnerable groups."
