The hot ground made Bai Wu open his eyes.
The scorching sunlight was so blinding that he had to squint again.
Bai Wu was extremely surprised when he heard the captain's cough.
Captain... what's going on
"Ahem... where is this place?" Wujiu obviously hadn't realized his change yet.
The yellowed paper above his head seemed to weaken some of the sunlight, and the words written on the ancient textured paper began to shake Bai Wu's will once again.
At this moment, Bai Wu heard the cough coming from his best friend. He looked over with a look of surprise. How did he... become a human
The words on the paper seemed to react faster than the actual white mist.
When Bai Wu heard the cough, the words had already been written.
When Bai Wu had the next thought and was about to speak, the content on the paper began to increase:
He said in astonishment: Captain, you... are you really the captain
"Captain...you..."
Bai Wu suddenly stopped talking. He planned to change his behavior so that his actions would be inconsistent with the prophecy on the paper.
But Wujiu seemed to have heard Bai Wu's entire conversation:
"What's wrong? Why do you ask? This place... is the fifth level of the Well World?"
Before Wujiu opened his mouth, Bai Wu saw what Wujiu was about to say.
Everything was written on that yellowed paper, as if everything was a piece of history.
Wujiu and he are both unable to break free from the shackles of historical trajectory, and are two figures who have long been recorded in history.
But he did change the content of his speech just now.
Bai Wu was very confused at this time. The will of this world seemed to be influencing his behavior, but was he predicting his own behavior or creating his own behavior
Well, that's a question. If it's the latter, it's pretty dangerous.
As always, Bai Wu’s thoughts were clearly written on the yellowed paper.
Bai Wu decided to say something, and he first identified the surrounding environment.
Found this place... looks very familiar.
He recognized this place. This was where he first came. Before this day, he was a low-level beggar.
Lilith on the third floor, the Tower God who did not stir up any storm, sent him to this place, put him in shackles, and made him perform survival outside the tower for the nobles on the third and fourth floors.
In fact, Bai Wu didn't recognize it, but the notes on the yellowed paper made Bai Wu remember it.
This is actually the place where I first traveled to this world
"here… "
When the words he was about to say appeared on the yellowed paper, the white mist was forced to stop again.
He suddenly remembered that he had stopped talking just now, but the captain seemed to have heard everything.
Maybe we should not only stop talking, but also change the content of our words
His mind was quick, and everything was accomplished in a flash, as if he was competing with some powerful being in the speed of attack.
"I don't know where this place is, Captain, didn't you realize that you have become a human?" Bai Wu changed the content of his words.
He was able to multitask, paying attention to the words on the paper while thinking about how to make his actions inconsistent with the description.
But what happened next cast a layer of "fear of fate" over Bai Wu's heart.
He seemed to have changed nothing.
“Where did you first travel to? But this place... shouldn’t it be a completely different world from reality?” Wujiu showed a look of astonishment.
The answer from his best friend made Bai Wu feel powerless. It turned out that no matter what he did... except for the first idea, all subsequent changes had no effect
He had never experienced such an adventure before, because there were no variables...
There are no variables, as if all trajectories are predetermined.
I am just a program in execution.
It was as if the master of the will of the world named Well was opening a program called "White Mist.exe" in a computer named World.
The program may present many complex algorithms, but everything... is set by humans.
"Captain, you are no longer evil."
Don't look at the paper and don't let the paper disturb your heart, Bai Wu thought. It seems that as long as you don't look at it and don't know God's will, then all your actions are still under your control.
The content on the paper was still being displayed, and it was difficult for Bai Wu not to look at it.
As long as you don't deliberately go against what's written on the paper and everything is based on your first thought, the captain will be able to receive it correctly.
This idea should be right. Sure enough, his best friend heard what he said and looked thoughtful: If you hadn’t said it, I wouldn’t have noticed it…
"I wouldn't have noticed it if you hadn't told me. Hahaha, that's weird. It seems that subconsciously, I'm still used to you being taller than me."
Wujiu was already used to being teased about his height, and he even smiled at this moment.
Being able to return to human form might just be some special feature of the fifth level of the Well World
Before he turned into an evil person, he was used to looking up slightly at others, especially tall and strong guys like Nie Chongshan, Jiang Zhu, and Wen Hao.
But after becoming evil, he started looking down on these guys.
But deep down, Wujiu still felt that... he seemed to have long been accustomed to his human identity.
“Maybe everything in this scene is fake?”
Wujiu looked around and said seriously.
The white mist was unclear, he recalled the past...
When I arrived at this place, I made my judgment based on the notes given in the sequence.
His eyes turned towards a dilapidated building not far away.
It seemed as if naughty words emerged from memory.
A public toilet that has not been used for 700 years. It has a three-and-a-half-star danger index. The interior is moderately corrupt and distorted, and the flush toilet has long lost its function. I suggest not going in, but just hold it in or relieve yourself on the spot.
When Bai Wu first saw this note, a lot of information appeared in his mind.
No one has used it for seven hundred years, it is moderately deformed, and has fallen into evil...
Now he knew all this information, but there was no note in his eyes.
When he looked again at the ancient pages above his head - which only he could see - the content had changed.
A public toilet that has not been used for 700 years. It has a five-star danger index. The evil inside is extremely serious and distorted. The flush toilet has long lost its function. My suggestion is... run!
It seemed that some evil creature sensed Bai Wu and Wu Jiu.
Huge tentacles like octopus legs pierced the ground.
Dozens of tentacles hundreds of meters long suddenly pierced the ground, making the originally familiar scene become weird.
It seems as if this is the residence of some ancient evil god.
The tentacles seemed to have caught the scent of food and were constantly searching for prey.
The huge tentacles caused cracks to appear on the ground of the city.
The collapsed ground caused Wujiu and Bai Wu to fall into the sewer.
In the sewers, those pipes that no one has used for seven hundred years are entangled with dense blood vessels and unknown worms.
The worms crawled on the surface of the blood vessels, causing the blood vessels to sometimes contract and sometimes expand.
"What kind of evil is this? It looks quite dangerous." Wujiu frowned.
The fifth level of the Well World, we have only met once so far.
He and Bai Wu have long become so powerful that the evil people in the real world are far behind them.
But the huge tentacle just now might not be a match for himself and Bai Wu, but it would take a lot of effort to deal with it.
Today, Bai Wu and Wu Jiu no longer need to lie dormant and carefully, constantly collecting clues to crack an area.
But now... it seems like we are back in that dangerous world.
"I don't know, but it seems that our emotions don't fluctuate much. As an evil being without wisdom, the other party doesn't seem to be able to accurately perceive us."
Bai Wu's heart gradually calmed down.
The two are no longer the same people they were before. They were the ones who could remain calm even in crises. After experiencing so many adventures, they can now face any crisis with peace of mind.
But what on earth is going on in this world? The white fog can suppress emotions, but it cannot suppress the desire for knowledge.
He looked up at the ancient pages and thought to himself, it feels really bad to be predicted by others.
It's really uncomfortable to have other people know my secrets.
Bai Wu indeed thought so.
At this moment, in the dark sewer, the ground collapsed due to the movement of huge tentacles, and the scorching sunlight shone into the sewer.
A small object on the edge of the canal shone in the sunlight and instantly caught Bai Wu's attention.
He saw a pair of handcuffs.
Some of the handcuffs were not serious. They were handcuffs on the surface, but secretly they were surveillance cameras for the fourth-level nobles.
The note about the Eye of Prell came to mind again.
Once here, Bai Wu broke the handcuffs and returned to the tower.
If there were no handcuffs, Bai Wu would guess that this world was just a test and not real...
But now that he saw the handcuffs, he suddenly thought that maybe this world was indeed unreal, but under the influence of the will of the well world...
This is the real world for me and the captain now.
And this world, perhaps, is built on... his own failure? The Dragon Slayer felt that this world seemed to have undergone a serious distortion. The moderately distorted Lao Ba who was hiding in the toilet had become severely distorted...
So he started to think, there seems to be a monster near these handcuffs!
In fact, Bai Wu hadn’t thought about that much, but the content on the yellowed pages did remind Bai Wu.
Back then, here, Bai Wu faced a killer from the third floor and once attracted an evil creature from the sewer.
The evil creature killed the Admiral Pan Feng mentioned by the Eye of Prell in an instant.
"Captain, we have to be careful next time."
Wujiu nodded, he also felt another powerful creature slowly approaching.
The blood vessels tangled in the sewer pipes contracted and expanded faster and faster, as if expressing the excitement of some monster.
"If I remember correctly, this is Food City..."
Through the TV program in Violet Manor, Bai Wu recalled that the place where he first appeared should be Food City.
If this were the real world, it would indeed be true.
But this is not reality, this is the fifth level of the Well World.
"There have been many reports of strange creatures appearing in the sewers of Food City, causing a large number of rats to run out of the sewers and even causing a rat infestation."
"Also... in the sewer of Food City, there was once a woman whose back was almost hollowed out."
This woman appeared in the mine where the previous travelers had gathered.
Bai Wu held his breath. He didn't know if this world had any connection with the world he knew.
But obviously, the real world is more like a pioneering version.
Now it is the second round of hell difficulty.
There must be some purpose of the "Well World Will" hidden in this second round.
Bai Wu closed his eyes and didn't look at the yellowed pages. Deep in his heart, he began to have his own thoughts.
"Combined with my previous memories, I am currently in a severely distorted world."
"But if the will of the world wants to kill me, it should be easy."
"But he didn't kill me, instead he presented a strange world."
"The ancient page that replaced the Eye of Prell is more like something that disturbs my mind."
"I must have missed some clue."
What was overlooked
Bai Wu frowned.
When his strength reaches a certain level, although he will explore some areas, he will only act with his hands without using his brain.
In today's world, under the influence of the will of the Well World, he and the captain may still be powerful creatures, but they are definitely no longer as transcendent as in the real world.
And the ones we have encountered so far are probably just trash. The trash have been strengthened to the point of severe distortion. It is hard to imagine how powerful the regional guardian of a place would be...
"We can't use force to clear the level. This may be a solution, but the captain and I have to conserve our energy. We will only use violence when necessary."
Wujiu listened to Bai Wu's mumbling, as if he saw the Bai Wu of the past.
He always felt that Bai Wu was suitable for going out of the tower to investigate, not because of Bai Wu's terrifying fighting ability, but because Bai Wu had a calm mind.
So Wujiu guarded silently, listening to the footsteps of the evil ones approaching.
There was the sound of a horrible, sticky body wriggling and the sound of a woman crying.
Wujiu was on full alert, ready to draw his weapon at any moment to fight these twisted monsters.
Strangely enough, those spirit-hosting equipments, made by White Mist, were actually made to the size of Crimson.
But now that I have become a human being, these equipment have also changed.
The evil must be grasped in his hand, Wujiu suddenly felt... that he seemed to have mastered some kind of ability.
And at this moment, the white fog suddenly captured the key information.
"Whenever I encountered a problem in the past, the Eye of Prell gave me a clue... Although it was a riddle sequence, I could always find useful information."
"The Eye of Prell is now controlled by a being that is suspected to be the will of the Well World. But before the Eye was controlled... it seemed to have mentioned a message."
Bai Wu looked up suddenly, and the yellowed pages of the book did not reflect the mental activities he had just experienced.
Okay, you found the blind spot, the cheating eye, and it did give you a hint that disrupted the rules of the game, but he didn't finish, and the story has to go on, right
This time, the yellowed pages are no longer an objective description.
It is more like an entity incarnated into will, communicating with the white mist.
The white mist smiled, bringing the poet Ah Yan's last hint -
Remember what I said - the will can destroy the will, but it cannot kill...
When he said this, his eyes were controlled by his will and he didn't finish the sentence.
Obviously, the second half of this sentence is very critical.
"Will can destroy will... This may be the danger that the captain and I will face next. But the key to breaking the deadlock, that is, the weakness of the Well World's will... lies in the second half of the sentence."
Bai Wu didn't know what this weakness was.
But as long as this will has a weakness...
The yellowed pages seemed to have become an objective recorder again, but this time, they contained some personal information:
But as long as this will has a weakness, he is confident that he can find this weakness. Can the naive dragon slayer defeat the powerful will of the well world
Or... he will soon die in a twisted homeland that seems to be real.
